kingxsamz:How many of these gods have or claim to have an hell? |
kingxsamz:Two very different scenarios if you think. A place traditionally believed or thought of for over 1500years, you want to compare that to picking a bone on the earth and making all kinds of cuckoo stories about how the dinosaur was owing its friend money before dying of hypertension 10million years ago. They may both be wrong but one is clearly more believable than the other. |
kingxsamz:You are very right. Thank God they were not more careless and lose more lives. |
bluefilm:It's a Nigerian thing. The average Nigerian is rude when in position or power, whether Madam or opening gate or having apprentice. |

LordReed:Like that silly boy hahn and most of you, you overrate yourself as humans in comparison with God. The weirdness is that you often underrate yourself as humans in comparison with animals. What you fail to keep in account is that time on earth is SOWING time. You don't realize the greatness and awesomeness of God that created the Universe. How often have you given thought to the billions/trillions of plants and animals that die or her consumed yearly. What is man? Don't you realize that earth and humanity is much more insignificant in comparison to a God who made the whole universe? But the whole beautiful story of grace links us with Him. Can you compare the size of a seed with the tree it produces, it is much much more. Can you compare the tiny micro sperm and egg sown to produce the human body? It is much much more. But you compare your 80year seed to eternity and you say it is unfair or doesn't make sense to you. It may not make sense to you but it is definitely and eerily consistent with nature's reality. Here in our little atmosphere, you think that's where the world finishes. Those who have gone to ordinary moon that you see from far, they know that things are entirely different there. Most of what matters here doesn't work there. Ordinary footsteps made on the moon over 50years ago are still there because there is no wind there. But someone thinks God has forgotten their actions here and it is not firmly recorded. You are joking. The day of God's wrath is coming. If you like, think it with your myopic prisms. The Person that is in charge of the Universe will think up your seed on that day. i pray it will be a pretty eternity harvest for you all. |
VillagePeople11:Just to add to what some of the brethren have said and explained, many of us don't factor in and fathom the concept of eternity. You don't hold doctrine in isolation and neglect or disregard other beliefs, conditions and teachings in the same book. It will definitely never make sense to you. Imagine coming into the middle of a class on thermodynamics, or the middle of a session. What is happening will probably not make sense to you. Even those following from the beginning, it has not fully made sense to all of them, how much more someone with missing parts. Man is created in the image of God. Because of this, we possess something eternal inside us. While we may die, we don't die in the real sense. We continue to exist. Spirits don't die, whether evil or good. Because they all come from God the Father of spirits. Every man has a spirit, call it a soul if that helps you understand better. You can be eternally or partially separated from God, which is the technical bible meaning of DEATH. But you are eternal and anywhere outside God is hell anyway. Nonetheless, anything not of God or meeting the God standard will be thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is an eternal place of torment. You choose to be forever with God. If you don't meet the standard and specification, you are forever outside God. This is the coming reality. Reality is what you face, whether it makes sense to you is largely immaterial. Nigeria makes no sense to millions of people but they have to face it. That's reality for you. Only a fool will not prepare after seeing and being warned of danger. There is need to ESCAPE like the Bible rightly calls the action. |
As to your second post Muttley. Saying something is wrong or a sin doesn't equal condemnation. Homosexuality is a sin, fornication is a sin, pride is a sin, wickedness is a sin. Anyone doing these things should repent. There is no condemnation in that. If i judge them ahead and exclude them from repentance is what is condemnation. You decided not to tell us your source of repeated extra biblical information. Are you shy or developing cold feet? i didn't start the strawman mining, i only helped you mine further as my friend so you can see and stop mining. Talking about homos having good parts is no different from talking about a killer with a good and sincere heart or nice and generous side. So, you think it unnecessary to mention your source that you have hanged all your homo love on, but want me to go and be searching your posts for it. Lol, hold it and try not to repeatedly bore me with it. Give me the Bible like you want to start suggesting. |
@Muttley. You and long posts seem inseparable. Lol. Liars, thieves, idolaters and killers are sinners with homos, they are in the same boat of shame. The bible clearly and several times condemns homosexuality, even Paul says they are not normal. It is abnormal and crazy for man to leave woman and instead be lusting after a fellow man,things that people should be ashamed about. Homosexuality like every other sin is heinous and hideous. Sin lands people in hell, the wage of sin is ultimately hell. Do the math. Homosexuality is of course associated with sins like wickedness, cruelty, unkindness, temple sex prostitution, promiscuity, debauchery, idolatry, attempted rape, orgies in the Bible as you rightly submit. This is enough reason to sanely abstain from it and not go headlong in its defense, even repeatedly throwing me into hell and teeth gnashing ahead of it. SMH. Jesus often referred to man's beginning as a template and pattern to follow in tandem with God's will. We have clearly seen that the beginning had no Male and male marriage or Madam and Eve, but clearly heterosexual. Homos are to repent and find love, marriage and companionship in the set pattern from the beginning. There are many like them who have done this. Some homos straddle by being bisexual. So, even humanly, there is the possibility. Not to mention what the exceeding grace of God can do. |
LordReed:Let's play this foolery properly. Name 10 "high profile" (whatever that means) gay Christians and i will name 50 known respectable Christians for every 10. You did not find the 12 foundation disciples to name and copy. You did not find Jesus or Paul to name and follow. It is failures like yourself that you are presenting as model Christians. Not strange from a proponent of animalistic behavior being the way forward. |
LordReed:Keep wondering. There are hundreds of thousands of people who preach and claim to believe the Bible. You cannot take the best, you decide to take the scandalous to deceive and pat yourself. You're no different from the failure looking for his specialist mates in failure and ignoring the excellent students. |
davien:Like what exactly? |
Janosky:Elder J.J Jano, you are dribbling me. Your ogas have given you answer to post at last. Tell them this. Here is the question. 1. Does a finger speak? Every normal human literate use their hands to write. We have yet to see or hear any finger SPEAK. The Holy Spirit speaks, He says, He prays and He teaches. These are things that persons do. BTW, pins, thorns can sting or prick you. Fire can burn you. This is normal language not to be confused with the clear personality attached to the Holy Ghost all over the Bible. Let me confuse you further,lol. Jesus is referred to as a Branch and Rock. Does that erase Him from being a person? Why do you establish and build doctrine on one leg/verse because they told you so as tradition in your kingdom hall? 2.2. Do you lie to fingers? Yes or No, you are stammering and dribbling. Jesus is referred to as the Word of God, was He a person? He is also Bread, is He still a person? Have they ever lied to your finger before? J.J Jano, let us be fearing God. (2B)Good of you, you are close. This makes the Holy Spirit to be God. If you refuse the Holy Spirit, you refuse God. They are One. 3.Is holy spirit a man ?Here was the question, why did you change it, you don't like the question? Here, "3. So when God says a man is His battle axe, the man is no longer living?" God qualifies man as a Battle axe(non-living thing) howbeit figuratively. If we follow your logic/expo consistently, man is not a person. That one verse figuratively calls a person finger, or branch, or Rock, or bread, or axe does not make them lose their personality. It is figurative language. [b]Bros, READ & STUDY !!!!!!This one is from one of your textbooks or magazines i guess. Who made it nonsense to be figurative? Your council of elders? No one is arguing equality, at least not yet or in the sense you hope to carry it. The point is DIVINITY. One step at a time, remember? Your body is sometimes subject to your inner man or spirit, or at least it is supposed to be under by Bible standards. It doesn't make your body not to be YOU. Your spirit or inner man is you, your body is same you. God the Father is God, and like no other person or thing, God the Son and the Spirit are also God. 16. The “spirit of your Father,” is synonymous with “the holy spirit,” and is said to speak in our stead on certain occasions when we might be brought before men for possible persecution or trial (Matt.10:19 and 20; Mark 13:11; Luke 12:11 and 12). On the same topic, Luke 21:15 says that Christ will give us “a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.” Rather than saying that a person called “the Holy Ghost” will speak through us, these verses teach that we will be inspired by the supernatural power of God and Christ to speak as they give us guidance.He is a Spirit duh, just like evil spirits are spirits and can possess and speak through people. Acts 16 comes to mind. Satan speaking through Peter comes to mind. The Holy Spirit speaking through anyone does not make Him less Spirit or less Person. It's what spirits do. Your own spirit speaks through you to express worship and whatever else. [b]17. If the spirit is a sentient (able to sense, be self-aware), separate and distinct being with personality, then Jesus either did not know this or was very inconsistent in giving “Him” proper due. In Matthew 11:27, Jesus asserts that “no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son…” If “the Holy Spirit” is a person distinct from the Father, and is also omniscient and almighty “God,” then would He not also have to know the Father and the Son? Jesus’ statement, then, would not have been true, and in fact would be a lie.This is laughable, i sincerely hope this is your personal thought and writing, not some expo from your books at the Hall that they teach all of you. The Holy Spirit is obviously NOT a MAN, is He? God is not a man, duh. SMH. The same is true for Jesus’ assertion in Matthew 24:36 that no one knew the hour of his Second Coming except the Father. How could “the Holy Spirit” be kept in the dark about this very important prophetic event? Are we to believe that it is possible for one member of the Godhead to keep a secret from another member while sharing the same eternal and divine “essence” of “Godself?”This is what makes them three SEPARATE persons, not the same person in different forms. It simply shows that it is the decision of the Father. Even God the Son was not in the know at least at the time of speaking. Was He a person or no? BTW, my subordinates can know many things that i don't know and only brief me on what i consider important. So knowledge is relative and not necessarily a judge or measure of superiority. Many 1st class students are controlled by a degree less boss. Knowing a particular hour in man's event is not necessarily the most important knowledge in the Universe or Heaven. Don't overrate man. Next. |
MuttleyLaff:Try to settle down and read this about 5 to 7 times to determine if it makes any sense or is straightforward and plain enough for people like me or children that don't know big big and long story. We are the majority of who the Bible was written to, not the esoteric. You cant hide from the fact and truth that God is OK with Tamar, Rahab and prophet Hosea's wife, but He wasn't and isnt OK with cult prostitutes, sacred qadesh (i.e. male cult temple prostitutes/servants) and qedesha (i.e. female cult temple prostitutes/servants). He isn't OK with prostitution practices, used to desecrate the worship and reverence of Him with their distasteful fertility ritual and impurity idolatry sex worship, with sperm consumption being an act of worship et cetera.Okay, let's cut to the chase a little here. Can you provide us with your source of this information you keep repeating because you seem to base a whole lot on this extra-biblical piece of information against a whole stack of plain and inspired instructions. You are learning fast, lmso. So you are beginning to get it that something else qualifies the marginalised, that you see as undesirables, abi, when there isn't any unpleasant about them, lmsoNothing new to learn as it were. They experienced the marvelous grace of God. It was not a qualification contest. It should not surprise you that many in that line are not likely to be found in Heaven. Genealogy is not a ticket to heaven. It is not a qualifier or standard for behavior or holiness, neither is it said to be an endorsement like you want it to be. From the onset, my standpoint has always been commitment, faithfulness, honesty, fidelity, loyalty, trust, monogamy et ceteraUnfortunately, i know a couple of cultists showing commitment, faithfulness, honesty, fidelity, loyalty, trust, monogamy in their cause. Prostitutes, in early biblical times speaking, were a problem and nuisance to God, in terms of them being associated with orgastic temple rites, temple prostitutions, infidelity, sexual sacrifices with the belief that having sex with qadesh (i.e. in Biblical times, qadesh are men whose quality of life has degenerated to the point of being attached to certain temples, as temple male prostitutes engaging in sexual activity thats paid for) brings about divine favour, blessings and/or a new and higher level of spirituality, sexual fertility rites et cetera.Before further comments, kindly provide the source of this findings. If you are holier than thou and without sin, please cast the first stone, lmso.i mention fornicators for example. i can very well mention thieves, idolaters, blasphemers and other sinners in the same context. By the grace of God, i am without the sins mentioned and will very well point them out in line with the Word of God. They are to repent, i do not condemn them but they should not stay in sin just like Jesus admonished the adulteress not to remain in sin. |
MuttleyLaff:i know some liars that are not thieves, idolaters and killers. A sinner needs just one sin to be a sinner, right? There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth on your part if you dont repent because you'll be shocked at seeing them inside the kingdom of Heaven, but you barred from entry for your bias towards them.i have no bias towards them, you seem to. You're in every homo thread defending them armed to the teeth against anything and anyone along the way. If you cannot see who has the bias, you need to wake up. Like every sin, homosexuality is heinous, hideous and leading the poor sinner to hell. The Word of God says so, not just me. I know quite a bunch of people though are homos, they individually aren't "a liar, a thief, a fornicator" sic as you originally put it, lmsoAgain, one sin makes a sinner. Some fornicators will never steal or kill. Some liars are very loving and caring and gentle too. Adam and Steve or even Madam and Eve are all four created by God, so what exactly is the vile act alleged in being Adam and Steve or even Madam and Eve, hmm?Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. You are free to quote the part where He created Steve or Madam or thieves or liars in His image. I am speechless that you aren't aware that mankind was created and is created for companionship.My dear brother, it would have been better, wiser and safer that you remained speechless instead of all these twists and lies to win an argument. Genesis 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. What have you now gained from calling poster(s) names? Does calling poster(s) names make you sleep better at night ni, hmm?Little Reed riding hood knows very well that i speak about him and his serpent nature, better to mind your business in that area. I sure wish you take your own "prescribing to others" medicine. I sure wish you biblically, anatomically and physiologically have done your research properly.You're smarter than jumping into obvious fire, my continued surprise remains putting yourself in fire for homos. You were busy comparing the Wright brothers to humans behaving like animals or making animal behavior their role models. You are no less a sinner than homos. We thank God, that, its not you, who is God. QEDOnly that i don't do things that are contentious or that the Bible says not to do, right? |
LordReed:There was never a disagreement about homosexuality like every other sin being natural. The disagreement stems from the fact that like every other bad behavior and sin, it is also learned. Actually from experience, it is mostly learned. The bulk percentage of homos you meet will admit that they "discovered" they were homos when they got the encouragement and influence either in hostels, same gender institutions, prisons or encouraging media, child abuse. That's the environment. Just like sagging trousers, smoking, drinking, rape, orgies. |
LordReed:They get cured every other day at the feet of Jesus. Bring them and let's cure them. Why does it bite you at all? |
LordReed:Then i would have to read about millions of professing Christians to be fair. No, they remain insignificant and inconsequential to what i know and believe. i am okay with the Bible and overcomers like Peter, John, Paul, Apollos and some fine Christians that i have come across. It goes without saying that Jesus is Lord of all and the One to look to. These have preached the Word and will of God and are enough for me. i don't study failures like you obviously do, little wonder why you failed. |
Pelecius:Lol, well done sir. God remains Boss. |
LordReed:Sin is hideous, sinners are to be pitied. Talk about Peter and Paul, i don't know your role models that you mentioned. i only read about them. |
LordReed:Good to see you see that. Of course i let them be like every other sinner. But when people like you come to the religion section here to try convincing folks that there is no wrong and no harm in being homo, we have to speak up. When you say and infer that we should be homos because animals are homos, i have no choice than to speak up as much as i am opportuned. |
LordReed:It has always being clear, except that you tagged all christians as same with your favourite view. The Bible clearly teaches about the natural degenerate state of the fallen man. You must have read it before, ALL have sinned. IN sin we were formed. That is the obvious reason and NEED for being born AGAIN. All humans are naturally born sinners, and the natural man does not understand the things of God as they are foolishness to him. These things are not strange to you, only that the devil blinded you and you happily went along. So whatever the sin, whether being a homo, or stealing, or adultery or pride, or malice etc. They are all natural man's sins. But never an excuse lie you are making it. Sin is natural to every man but never an excuse for any man? Also, just like all other sins are learned and improved on, people copy and learn all bad things through influence. The same way homosexuality is also learned in places like prisons, hostels and through the glamour of the media. So we have sinners who are born into it and those who learn it, whatever the sin. Whether thieves or homos or liars or rapists. i want to believe this is kindergaten enough for you to understand yet. |
airsaylongcom:i didn't ask you how old the earth is. i obviously said the specimen has not even being studied. That is the point. |
LordReed:As in natural birth BY an outside donor of another gender. Say it loud and CLEAR for them to hear well. |
LordReed:Duh, we were referring to the homo couple remember? Homos cannot reproduce without help, that is what i have being saying all along but you have been trying all means to spin this clear fact. Homos are a threat to human extinction. Without being straight and having straight and sane people in the society. Leaving it for homos, the human race is gone. Now can you attempt being original for once? |
MuttleyLaff:The same fuss i have with liars, thieves, idolaters and killers. You should saved the pity for yourself because there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see homos in the kingdom of God, but you yourself is thrown out, lmsoIt is my heart desire to see all men in the kingdom of Heaven so there cannot be weeping on my part for seeing anyone there. However, i know the truth in God's Word that sinners have no place in heaven. Being a liar, a thief, a fornicator et cetera, is not the case of two easy going, ordinary consenting adults, minding their own businesses enjoying a life long caring, faithful, committed to each other, truthful to each other, honest, loving each other, lasting that's a lifetime life-long and loyal same-sex monogamous relationship, that is not causing damage or harm to another person, not betraying of another person, or even, not cheating on another person, and not being harmful to an object or neighbour, who love each other, enjoy each other’s company, are mutually respectful to each other, mutually supportive to each other, and all that and more, sometimes without sex necessarily being the leading or most important thing for them. [/quote]A homo, a liar, a thief, a fornicator are all sinners.The vile act is being a homo Adam and Steve instead of Adam and Eve. God made them male and female, never male and male for marriage. I dont know about any NL poster with a snake head, but I will say that, humans fly in the air obviously because animals do it. The Wright brothers, for example, who were first in flight, did a great deal of studying on the flight of birds. Wilbur and Orville realized that if birds could fly, humans could copy their design and likewise be able to fly, so from 1897 to 1899, they watched and studied birds soar into the wind. Humans burrow the earth with JCB et cetera obviously because animals do it. Humans swim in water obviously because animals do. Some humans are homosexual (i.e. have same sex attraction), not because animals do it, but because that is how they turned out, coincidentally and as it happens, homosexuality exists in plants and animals naturally because of Nature and/or a God design (i.e. anatomically and physiologically, lmso)The person i was talking to knows himself but since you decided to be his "voltron", perhaps you should do your research properly. You should have continued your modelling from animals with cannibalism, nudity, shamelessness and other animalistic behaviour not just the ones you mentioned. Do humans fly like birds or burrow like animals. Do they do the actions with the same purpose? Don't even bother to answer the obvious fallacy lane you mapped. Let's try sticking to the point. Homos are sinners, QED. |
Wetin she go do if she meet Jesus? Na to die be that. |
airsaylongcom:So you believe the Bible? Like i emboldened, the millions of years is in doubt if the specimen has not even being studied. The method to be used is also doubtful and unreliable. |
MuttleyLaff:By the emboldened, you mean ("then I have no qualms with considering such kind of prostitutes being OK" . In other words, you consider it okay to be a prostitute. You believe because Rehab is in the geneology of Jesus, then it is okay to be a prostitute. It is laughable because the genealogy of Jesus was never given as a standard. There are all kinds of criminals, killers and wicked men in that genealogy too. That is besides the fact that it was never Rehab's prostitution that 'qualified' her but despite it.Image123, it boggles the eyesYou said that homosexuals do a lot of 'good' things like " love, relationship, friendship, deep affection, caring, doting, devotion, kindness, fondness, warmth, commitment, companionship, loyalty, faithfulness, thoughtfulness" etc. To which i responded that prostitutes also make clean money from the proceeds of the jobs and big supermarkets/boutiques they run. And then you've been on about how God is OK with prostitutes. Prostitution, adultery and fornication my friend are, people sleeping around with different people that they are not married to. They are sins in the eyes of God and people who do them are going to hell except they repent. But then you thankfully say you are not in favour of "people sleeping around with different people" in either heterosexual or homosexual relationships. Back to the matter, an homo couple is no different from a faithful fornicator, they are both sinners. There are many fornicators not married but faithful to one another. |
airsaylongcom:The article says "'We have not yet studied this specimen – it is a scientific frontier.'". It is the ONLY REASONABLE thing to do to doubt the tales. i wonder why you have such great faith in this without any study but choose to disbelieve the more believable Bible. |
HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO. locked in a fight to the death with a Triceratops is finally revealed to the public. Indeed. This is no different from what Inspector Fash will reveal to the public later on, food for the gullible. Ferrocious battle ko, ENDSARS protest ni. |
Janosky:Jano the Dodger.dodger. The question is three, forget analogy and answer questions. 1. Does a finger speak? 2. Do you lie to fingers? 3. So when God says a man is His battle axe, the man is no longer living? |
