Does it mean God would truly allow them burn forever

yes dear... sadly its the truth

heendrix:
please can you Rephrase

are you saying Lake of fire is way better??

I meant hellfire and lake of fire are 2 different prisons; while the former is being controlled by Lucifer and his demons who torture humans as they please

the lake of fire is a level field where all those against God will suffer without a sinner torturing the other

Why una dey like to take panadol for another man headache ? There's no investment or business that's risk free. Investment is about losing money and making money. I don't think it's a big deal If MBA and BARA crashes and people lose money. You guys are always quick to mention how much people lost in MMM but fail to tell us how much money people made in the same MMM. Sometime in 2007, I investment in Afribank shares and today, with all their government approvals and certifications, the money is gone. I am left with only the useless certificate. And that's what investment is all about.


OP, you remind me of my erstwhile best friend, Chijioke (curse be upon him) who is now my worst enemy that discouraged me from buying Bitcoin when it was cheap some years ago. He's a poor man whose fear of losing money is stronger than his desire of breaking out of poverty.

you spoke well sir
But pardon your friend sha
love your neighbor better pass money ooo

if the Brazilian govt can't protect inmates from bullying, rape and theft then in some way someone from within needs to stand up those monsters

I don't applaud the path the guy has taken but I could only imagine the agony and suicidal thoughts of those inmates particularly being raped even some are imprisoned for a petty crime

any in reality the prisons of the earth are just like hell
I bet hell is a rogue place where demons torture and bully humans

no wonder hell wasn't the final destination for sinners including Lucifer but the lake of fire which eradicates any class of beings torturing one another but instead suffering the same consequences

God too wise sha

glory to him

Why is it that when many of you hear something you don't like, you say that somebody paid the person saying it to say it?

Do you think every Nigerian is a money-guzzling, corrupt dunce like you?

coming from a nonentity that is trying to twist narrative to cause ethnic divide.

idiot your write up failed woefully

go and write another lie against the igbos

vincentini:
I saw a video of two or three people dressed as soldiers walking up to a barricade and shooting into the air or something.

Many of us saw that particular video.

I wondered who actually recorded it because the person was obviously standing behind the 'soldiers' as they were shooting, based on the footage.

Were those actually Nigerian army soldiers, or were they 'Biafran soldiers' dressed in military gear to make them look like Nigerian soldiers??

I ask because the Nigerian military has said it did not deploy any troops to Lekki Toll Gate.

The proximity of the person recording the video to the soldiers also makes it very suspicious.

Did Nnamdi Kanu and his gang organize this whole 'shooting' incident to give the Nigerian army a bad name, and embarrass the federal govt, or to create chaos across the land?

I don't believe they actually killed anyone, but maybe they just wanted to create some chaos and embarrassment for the FG?

idiot

you are clearly saying that we don't know how the Nigerian army and police usually behave towards protesters. as if its the first time army people kill peaceful protesters

you fool is also saying that the Nigerian Army and govt can lie

its obvious you are a big fool paid to write this nonsense

Awol1:
Op I agree with you that the MODs here are not helping matters. They are supposed to be taking down any post that is meant to fuel tribal division but they won't.

Again, it is pertinent to note that some of those creating those topics are Fulani paid agents of division.

They fear the unity of the South and they want the division to remain.

We will be fools to let them win.

agreed

I have noticed two things that's happening here just recently and its quite strange

1) A lot of paid fools are insinuating that the igbos are the cause of the killings and vandalism going on at Lagos
I don't know whether these said fools promoting tribalism think that a lot of us are gullible and blind to what the real truth is. Over here in the SE there are reports of people being killed even yesterday in Enugu by the police and just recently at Onitsha bridge. There are several government infrastructure especially police stations burnt down. so where and who are these idiots trying to turn this into a tribal thing; Its important that we maintain our southern unity against a failed system that is enjoyed by the elites

it baffles me too that many criminals are here to divide the unity we share in this common EndSars objective
and am so disappointed by the Seun and the foolish moderators who allowed those tribal threads to be up until now planting and promoting tribal conflict.
if this was ipob threads I know how they will speedily take it down and etc
were they paid ? (food for thought) if my accusations to the mods aren't fair then they too should be fair in dealing with tribal extremists

2) Another faction is the fools that are trying to brainwash a lot Nairalanders insinuating that no one was killed at lekki toll gate on Tuesday night. Gosh I believe some spreading this fake news were also paid to do so. We see an opportunity for a greater change in our country and an idiot is saying it never happened
Just now on the news a whole NTA station confirmed that were shootings towards protesters by their own ground reporters that were there. Have these fools who haven't been to those hospitals where the casualties were brought gone and did a thorough investigative enquiry to hear from those victims or maybe the wicked fools just want us to agree to their assumption that all casualties from Tuesday night lekki shootings was as a result of them scampering when gun shots were fired in the air
how dumb do these writers think we are ooo
I even heard that the army seized some corpses but they won't include that in their stupid write up as maybe possibility

And let's say that no one was killed at Lekki toll gate what of yesterday across other various states. are the lives evidently lost at these states of no importance compared to what is happening in Lagos state

A lot of idiots somewhere just feel like writing things to feel right. Aren't we Nigerians don't we ourselves know how our police and Army behave to unarmed and innocent civilians

I am heart broken because it feels we got bad leaders as punishment for our foolishness, wickedness and greed

I don't like using bad words
but address these people that way because it's just what they are

Seun:
Apparently, I am the only honest Nigerian who cares about doing something to improve the Nation's image. I would have been better off not reading what all of you had to say on this thread. Shame on you, Nigeria!

we need to come up with solution but on a low key so as not publicize more of Nigerians as online scammers

my suggestion is that an NGO be created for honest Nigerians that want to combat this yahoo boys who tarnish our Image abroad.
a website will be created first to get started;
the website will have to 2 key main functions
1) To train the public that register with us on how to be a secret agent in combating online scammers
2) To a set up an international advertising campaign intentionally to promote a good image about Nigeria

I will like to engage you as today is sunday and I am not wasting my time in church but unfortunately you did say anything just a load of gibberish.

same with your own trash

FOLYKAZE:
You are really deceiving yourself Mr.

God was against human unity and innovation. Read your Bible very well

Genesis 11:5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
11:6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
11:8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

Verse 6 said if they continued in unity, speaking one language, nothing is impossible for them to achieve. He then in verse 7 confounded them, infesting disunity among them so that they abandon the project

so man should go against God's instruction of scattering abroad.

please since God scattered them with different languages did he take away their ability to be innovative or unite in splinter language groups ?

answer me since he hates mankind

why didn't he at that spot destroy all of them like he did at Sodom & Gomorrah

didn't God achieve that his word to be fulfilled

FOLYKAZE:
Scattering has caused divides and troubles to mankind. It is because of scattering we have wars and disagreements. Millions of lives have lost to senseless war orchestrated by God's will of scattering.

If you don't know, the internet bring human together. This was made possible by satellite communication in space. Pastor Chris is able to preach to the Chinese, thanks to duolinguo app that handles translation seemlessly. The ISS was built by people who united across race, tongue and colors. Good things are achieved through unity, while disasters lumps from disunity.

Was it God plan that we should be disunited? Does God hate human unity?

I only wonder where your heads at

you talk of uniting

please if you have a female child please and please tell her to follow a gang of rapists ok
it also called unity

there is country called Virgin & holy women and there is a country called A million tape gang

please ambassador from a good countryside will you want to unite both countries ?

adoyi8:
What will happen to your Igbo ancestors that did not know or believe in Jesus before they died. Remember that Jesus said he is the only way to God so it means that all your ancestors will be roasted in hell for not believing something they did not hear while you their descendant will be bowing day and night singing praises to the wicked being that is roasting your ancestors unjustly. I pity for you.

That's why you should enter into the family of God to understand how judgement will be made on that day
your question is easy to answer but won't waste my time on people: a fallen race clouded by assumption and wickedness who have no moral standing to judge God

FOLYKAZE:
Tell us why God hate human unity? Remember disunity has cost us lot of problems. And unity has made us achieve the impossibles. Is it God plan that human should disunite?

God isn't against unity and innovation.
but his plan is the priority so as that earth & mankind work for the better

Christ made it clear that his gospel wasn't of that of unity but divide

After the fall of man unity was impossible

and why ?

because you had the good & bad living together in this world

if unity exists who among both parties will compromise in accepting each others values

Christ statement told us clearly that unity of mankind is impossible except there is a divide.
separating the wheat from the chaff

the parable of the wheat & tares illustrates it perfectly

good and evil after the fall live together

but here you are with your ignorance preaching unity

FOLYKAZE:
You need to understand, before twisting out the account, that the project intended by these people is to build a city and Tower. The city has already been built or under construction which does not provoke God anger. City would prevent them from scattering, not tower as they won't dwell in the tower. The towel was just a brilliant architect, subjected to touch the heaven, also known as the sky. Thr key purpose of the tower is reaching the sky, not camping together as you posited.

Beyond the past, Man have built several Skyscrapers, they have structures that touches heaven. Remember those skyscrapers doesn't prevent people from scattering. The purpose of skyscrapers is showcasing brilliant architecture designs and revolutions.

This immense effort of man has gone beyond skyscrapers, we now have satellite and stations far beyond Earth.

The problem here is that man could achieve all these all by himself and drive the benefits into evangelism.

Has space station and satellites stopped human from scattering? Nope. Has space exploration helped expanded on ministration? Yes.

Now answer this, does this mean God has no vision?

I guess you missed out on their intention for building the tower stated from the Bible which you are using to launch an attack on God

his merciful sha I can't blame him when he allows Satan roast us as punishment

from your ignorant post am quoting

let's see now

there is an island in India which is inhabited by people who are cut off from civilization and just as outsiders are aware of them so to do they they know that people live beyond their place. so why haven't they over a thousands of years scatter or venture into new lands or even allow people come to their place ?

let me see how foolish you will twist this question and answer

so in your stupidity you aren't acknowledging the fact that anything is possible
that with what those people had agreed to do when building the tower that they won't stick to it for millions of years since you can acknowledge them keeping to building a tower

what about Sodom and Gomorrah that encircle.

do you think that if a community decides to cut itself off from others or not to spread to other lands that it isn't possible even when they are advancing in tech

Its because of that scattering that today man occupies a lot of places and God's word fulfilled.

what if they didn't scatter I guess you forgot sickness & diseases. or hail stones

what happened to Sodom & Gomorah or that Roman state destroyed by a volcano with no single survivor.

hmm pls read to understand not just the letters but context

adoyi8:
Lets give them the benefit of doubt and assume he existed.

same assumptions embedded in the foundation of science.

anyway let's give the benefit of doubt and assume that sin doesn't exist

or maybe

Human beings don't need saving

or maybe

there are no consequences of evil like behavior

naaa !!! maybe we can't accept sin exist because it was defined by God but then accept accept criminal act because its defined by man

stupidity in high places

FOLYKAZE:
As a matter of fact, findings has shown Jesus didn't exist. He was an invention of the Roman empire

same findings from humans beings that told you that sperm swim

am so sorry for you

use your head and understand the world you live in.
start by believing first that you were created by a being

how blind are people really are...

seriously how blind

your very fingers have a purpose right ?
who gave it purpose or defined a purpose for it ?

Christ is better in every way than you because you can't and will never offer what he brought and gave to the world

pride and ignorance are the top 2 deadly blindfolds

wisdom beats intelligence any day

Ofemmanu1:
Read and be healed.

GOD became upset because of the following reasons:

Eastward

The Book of Genesis emphasizes that as man moves eastward he moves away from God. We see this in the Garden of Eden, the Flood of Noah, and now in the Tower of Babel. It will also be seen later in Genesis when Lot separated from Abraham and went to Sodom. When humankind leaves the area of God's blessing, he goes to places that cause him problems.

Not Obeyed Command

The descendants of Noah had not obeyed the commandment of God to fill the earth. Rather than spreading out as God had ordered, they settled in the land of Shinar-a fertile land watered by the Tigris and Euphrates river. Once the people reached this plain in Babylon, they started a massive building project. The city was built in defiance of God's commandment. The building of a city would establish a unified front against God by preventing a scattering. These descendants of Noah had been disobedient to the call of God.

Make A Name

These particular descendants of Shem wanted to make a name for themselves instead of glorifying God. There is a play on words in the Hebrew with respect to the word name in this section of Scripture. The builders, the descendants of Shem, (Hebrew sham) wanted to make a name (Hebrew sham) for themselves. Instead of making a name, they will end up scattered and the name of their city (verse 9) will be Babel (confusion). The fact that they wanted to make a name for themselves will be contrasted to the account of Abraham in the next chapter-where God Himself makes a name for Abraham.

Why Build A Tower?

Once settled, they built the Tower of Babel as a monument to their own greatness-to make a name for themselves. Though Scripture does not give us the exact reason as to why they built this tower, there are several possible reasons.

1.Protection From Another Flood

A traditional view states that the tower was built by the people to protect themselves from another Flood. The phrase whose top may reach unto heaven is a figurative expression of great height. The tower was built high enough for the people to gain revenge against God-should He attempt to drown the inhabitants of earth again. The problem with this view is that God clearly promised not to send another Flood (Genesis 8:21-22; 9:11). Furthermore, why build a tower on a plain if the purpose was to be too high for floodwaters?

2.Tower To Reach God

Some critics of this account believe that the people were building a tower in an attempt to reach God. This is because the ancients had a belief that heaven was directly above the earth, and if they built a tower high enough, they could reach the presence of God. If they constructed this gigantic tower they could have thought that its tops would have pierced the vault above them. From this vantage point they could establish their own importance in the sight of humankind and God. There is nothing in the text to support the view that the people thought they could reach God's presence by building a tower.

3.Ziggurat

A popular view is that the people were building a Ziggurat- a tower built for the purpose of worship of the heavens. This meant the people were practicing the art of astrology rather than worshipping God. Yet the Hebrew word translated tower is migdol which simply means tower. In addition, the passage does not teach that the tower was for the purpose of worship.

4.Prevent A Scattering

We know the builders wanted to make a name for themselves rather than obeying God's commandment to be fruitful and multiply. Hence, they attempted to build a monument to their greatness. The monument was to set themselves up as a power-center to their own fame, glory and ambition. They wanted one united government that would rule over all, in defiance to the commandment of God.

The Scripture itself tends to support this as the proper way of understanding why they built the tower. It was that the people wanted to make a name for themselves rather than glorifying God.

And they said, Come, let us build a city, and tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth (Genesis 11:4).

Summary

The Tower of Babel was built by the descendants of Noah to prevent the people from scattering. This was done in defiance of God's commandment. The Tower symbolized their own efforts to settle a land rather than to fill the earth as was God's command.

great reply of a write up

the blinded OP exposed his pride & boastful self

same thing with the people that was building that tower

if you like keep hesitating if that guy later finds out and commits suicide just like other cases I have heard his blood will be on your head for being stupid

what if it was God that brought that man to you to save. you already know his character and still hesitant playing the I don't know card.
thunder fire you and this your post

MrRichmond:
You are not exaggerating, the complete US, Europe and Australian tik tok assets is valued by its executives to be worth more than $50 billion.

And we haven't even starred talking about their assets in China.

abi my brother

nah abi people dey do themselves to depend on these incompetent people from PDP and APC in the helm of politics

[quote author=Agbebakun22 post=92658949][/quote]may I know the direction of your question

not a welcome development in my view

depends on the plan behind this. so those in rural areas are expected to pay for a natural resource they have been using freely for decades.

water is one natural resources given to us by God that shouldn't be metered with money. it isn't fuel

what is the point of the tax paid to the government to provide clean water. but using peoples tax to build machines that will tax them extra


Christ when you said "Wickedness in high places"
you saw something I tell you

stupid excuse.

go and be begging FG. don't use your head and surround yourself with the right team to develop Abia state

keep waiting for FG & oil money. you have enough human resources but can't inspire them to be create great companies that can attract foreign investors

go and learn from US & China ..software companies are the new oil boom. if you sell Tiktok now it can buy 70% land in Abia state. (I maybe exaggerating but I know what am pointing to)

don't go and use your head

stupid excuse for incompetence.

foolish leaders
