Ifenes, you don't have anything to teach anyone. You are confused.

Sorry thought you knew man was created in His image.
The woman was taken from the man.
However, this issue is trivial. Eternity matters more!
Will go another year hating your creator?
Open your heart for He loves you still.

If what u mean by "the story" is the holocaust then I would say yes,however what I can not say is the actual number of people that died,it could be 6 million as quoted,it could be less or even more,regardless of the exact number,what we know is that a lot of people were killed,but please don't derail from the topic,all I want is to know what you think could be "God's" reason(s) for allowing such a calamitous event to happen,if u blv in God

Pls just let him be. Don't waste your time.

If you would see the Truth, your mind ought to be free devoid of bias and other subtle manipulations we may not know.
No word converts the atheist save by impression of the Spirit... May the Spirit of God covert many atheist to himself this year. I see atheists surrender to the Lordship of Christ this year. Amen!

jean1128:
Now this question is directed mainly to christians and religious folks,and I want to emphasize that the intention is not to start an unnecessary argument. This is a topic that always caught my attention and I was dissapointed to see that it hasn't been raised before on nairaland,at least not to my knowledge. I understand that there is great animosity between christians and atheists right now,Muslims as well,but my intention is not to start up an arguement on who is superior or right but to find out the views of christians concerning this. When I was a Christian I never knew of the holocaust,I only heard about the 2nd world war so I never asked myself certain questions,but now that I know about it,I would like to ask christians and theists as a whole why they think their supreme all loving,omnipotent God would allow such horrific event to occur.

p.s I would appeal that only those who know about the subject matter should comment,and not just anyone who simply looked the word up in the dictionary.If you have read or seen documentaries or movies such as "Schindler's list" or "The Pianist" then you are in a good position to comment.

Unit of God?

Hiswordxray:
oh, so you are a god. That must be very lonely

Hiswordxray:
I do not claim to know everything and it doesn't even matter if I know nothing as long as I have God I'm satisfied.
Do you have God?
Have you find satisfaction?
Have your soul find rest?
Because I'm at rest and I'm happy even if I'm stupid and ignorant. God is everything to me, He is sweet and beautiful and it pains me to see people like you missing out from the satisfaction and sweetness of this beautiful God.

I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to a brother.

In case you don't know I have written a lot of about the history and word origin of the word Church. I'm an authority in this area, I have published several books about Christianity and Church.

In this post I just decided not to trace the origin of the word Church but to try to look at the Church (the body of Christ) through the eyes of the early Christians and through the eyes of God. But you guys love to do too know, instead of appreciating a write up you dismissed it and claim yours is the one that is correct. Nobody is arguing about who is write and who is wrong and their is no need to show off. We know you are knowledgeable, we are in the era of knowledge and knowledge is literally everywhere and even cheap.

Christianity is not about how much you know, it is about fellowship. I haven't been in Nairaland for a long time because it's ugly how fellowship brethren in Christ argue and abuse each other due to pride. Paul said knowledge puff up but love edifies. Let try to fellowship and brethren; appreciate each other work, build a relationship with each other and express the love of God to each other.

Wrong.

The church is a people the church is a gathering. one person can never be the church. the church is also the place where God is worshiped

Zoharariel:
@ifenes - Wallahi, I feel like crying. You're on the same pedestal with King Solomon in wisdom.

How do you know so much?

A lot of people do not know that the God, they seek or worship desperately - lives inside them.

correctguy101:
The reverse doesn't always apply and you know it.

Following the model of PastorAIO whom I appreciate a lot, I have decided to create a personal thread to share my views and some intimate experiences which I hope would help me and others gain insight. I would have wished to do it in the diary section, but feedback is also important to me, so I think the religion section may be better.

In the beginning there was an end. Life is a cycle and a zero sum game. Whatever the choices we make, whatever the path we thread, all lead to the same end, and that end is nothing. In a sense, whatever goal we earnestly pursue is useless, all are but illusions, a shadow we may say.

What then remains of our constant struggles and efforts? I think experience. Experience is ultimately what matters.
