MightySparrow: You are right. It is the people that were on holiday. It happens like that and when people wake up, they call it revival. Think about Asuza street revival of the 1800s . Think about Oke Oye revival of Apostle Ayọ Babalola in the 1930s. Think about Paul Yonggi Cho in South Korea of early 1990s. Things happen from time to time.
MightySparrow: Note the bolded. You have pointed out one possible reason why the prophecy may not come through. Another reason is that prophecies are a times information to work with. If you pray about it like Nineveh in the book of Jonah. Things can change.
If you studied prophecies very well, you would discover that Egypt could mean all that came out of it.
another thing is that the prophecy of Ezekiel was not actually written in his time. It was later collated after his death. During transcribing, there could be errors.
Obviously you don't know what a prophesy is. Please refer to your dictionary, then revert
MightySparrow: I don't think you are conversant with biblical language. What Jesus was saying here was not a prophecy per se. I wonder why you people make up your mind to take things out of context.
If Adeboye says, 'I will eat pounded yam tomorrow ' , it has become a prophecy.
What happened next has explained or fulfilled the 'prophecy' Okay, what do you think is the relevance of the story,if the writer was not passing across the same thought?
Although av doubted the existence of god severally due 2 disappointments,dissatisfactions and devastations, i dont always find other skeptics or atheists more reasonable in this case.
The manner in which most express their i dont bliv is often something i find repulsive.
Itz often as if every believer is suffering as a result of their belief , as if atheists are better organized ,as if so many other nonsense.
Am not even expecting a change
I have seen more reasons 2 keep my doubts or issues with anything god 2 myself than to consider more baseless arguments/debates
Life is crazy
I don't understand. So because an atheist was rude or arrogant, that means his belief is wrong?
He is wise in his own conceit. I wonder why he the only person that has that mindset on the passage. He doesn't understand anything about the Bible. He is just a joker.
SIRTee15: Now different prophets said and wrote the same thing about a deity over a span of thousand years. They all keep talking about a coming messiah that they themselves never saw but knew about him. The interesting thing is some of them didnt even had a knowledge of previous prophets but they still prophesied same thing about God. no deviation or contradiction.
eventually what they said or wrote was compiled and the similarity in what they wrote and of the coming messiah is the proof they actually heard from God.
How do you know those prophets you talked about actually existed?
The highlighted caught my attention after reading the OP. I am Maximus one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I believe in LOGICAL REASONING but then can you and i reason together as mature individuals without insulting one another?
No u don't believe in logical reasoning, in fact you won't know logical reasoning if it punched your jaw and stole your wallet. So comot for my face
MightySparrow: Good, tell us one Bible prophecy that should come to pass but not.
Which biblical prophesies did not come true? The Bible contains a number of prophecies that never came true, although it is usually possible to reinterpret them to refer to other events. Here are failed prophecies from the Old Testament and a failed prophecy from the New Testament:
Ezekiel prophesied two separate outcomes for Egypt, total desolation or occupation by Babylon, but neither actually occurred: Ezekiel 29:12: And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
Ezekiel 29:19: Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
MightySparrow: The false prophecies you talk about is already prophesied in the Bible that false prophets will arise towards the end time.
Christianity of today interpretes the prophecies of the Bible writers. No one is getting new revelations now. However, in some little way, God still talks to people about their lives and environments using the written word as a cursor.
Yet the Bible says greater deeds would be done by the future generations. Yet those future generations cannot prophesize or do miracles? It even looks like your god went on holiday after the Bible was written
StillDtruth: The value is that i pointed out the fact that if you could read what she said then you saw she said "look at a house" which we all know you have no reasonable or valid answer to give, which is why you are complaining about my sticking it to you.
You are the one trolling because clearly you cannot deny nor refute nor truthfully counter any of these clear facts!
So clearly, you resorted to troll since you cannot answer, exactly what happens to.all lies because it is The Law "THERE IS NO VALID ARGUMENT AGAINST THE TRUTH!
So, your trolling and and attempt to rubbiish my response witbout any facts just proves you have nothing.
There he does. The dvmmy once again doesn't disappoint
Jamahyel: I noticed My left eye has been twitching uncontrollablly for the past 4-5 days now. I need advise from the experienced and learned. What does this mean superstitiously? And also my right palm has been itchy for the the same duration of 5days .
It means your life would undergo twitching and you would die
Missyajoke: I just want to use this thread to thank God for Divine Mercy and for Divine protection. Last week I travelled home to prepare for school exams since am done with lectures already. I got home that same day I went out freely in my vicinity and came back safe but by the second day I was passing on the street all of a sudden a sudden breeze blew towards me and immediately I stayed glued to a point and I wanted to fall but God hindered me from falling and immediately I lost total and complete consciousness of myself, I couldn't talk and I couldn't speak at all I just stayed glued to a point and without being able to move at all talkless of talking but all of a sudden a man came towards me and called me si and immediately I regained my sanity and I was able to move. I just want to thank Almighty God for delivering me from untimely death. I wanted to pass the same area the second day but the spirit of God hindered me from passing. My only prayer now is that God should expose all the evil men in my area and the community where I live. Last year a woman went missing in my area and was never found till date.
Lastly all of you that are on Nairaland that are into evil works of kidnapping and ritual killings change ohh cause God's judgement is near.
FxMasterz: You Would Never Doubt that Jesus is Real After Seeing This
The reason why many people keep arguing endlessly about Jesus is that so many Believers lack power. Many Christians are too lazy to take up the task of bringing God's Presence to needy men, hence needy men think there is no God. Some think Jesus is a creation of a dead Roman Empire while some others think Jesus was a mere messenger of God like any other prophet. Some even think Jesus is Angel Michael.
Just take a look at some short videos down here. The videos are all less that 2 minutes. You would see supernatural events recorded live. These types of things happen in Pentecostal churches across the globe. Especially in cases where the man of God is a sincere servant of God.
I have heard people who say these things are staged. You mean all these are staged all over the world? Whenever you see someone counterfeiting something, he's doing it in an attempt to copy an original. This means, whenever you see a counterfeit, you can be very sure that the original exists. Some fake pastors counterfeit it but the real manifestation of God's power is in all living Churches.
Meanwhile. these are the very things Jesus does among us to prove to everyone that He is alive.
Every Christian can manifest the power of God. You just need to walk with God. Get baptized in the Holy Ghost and walk in the Spirit. It's that simple.
"These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages." Mark 16:17.
Nobody saves like Jesus!
Give your heart to Jesus today. He loves you very much. Stop doubting.
Are you also aware Muslims and other religions have testimonies like these? That means their gods are legit too. And if theirs is legit, yours is fake cos there could be only one god
So? Is it news Latin Americans are mostly christians? Is it also news that they are very poor and misruled? Why can't the god that they are praying to help out?
Justiceganduje: Weak response. Is there any politician that is not involved in corruption one way or the other? Better than forcing homosexuality to mankind.
But u castigated Democrat politicians for some acts. Isn't that hypocritical of u?
