Let us take the narrative of Noah from Quran and compare it to that of the Bible's.

The Qur'anic passages which have more of an extended treatment of Noah are found in sura 7:59-64; 11:25-49; 23:23-30; 26:105-122; 37:75-82; 54:9-15; and sura 71:1-28 which is the sura of Nuh. In all these passages, we are told that Noah warns his people; they disbelieve in his message and God sends the flood to destroy the unbelievers. Period.

We are not told anything about how any of this, whether the peoples' sinfulness or the judgment of God, affects or affected God himself.

But if you look at the Bible's narrative, you will see a different picture :
Gen. 6:5-7 :

The LORD saw how great man's wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time. The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain. So the LORD said, "I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth - men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air - for I am grieved that I have made them."


Notice here that the Hebrew writers, express God's suffering by his regret in the creation of man. We are also given information on why God chose to destroy the earth.

Hence, this leave us with a question : which of the narratives is more God like with the "tune"?

IMAliyu:
Who or what is God?

God is defined by most people, cultures and religions as the creator of the universe and all that's in it, an eternal and all powerful, all knowing intelligent being. Roughly speaking

For anyone with a better or different definition, contributions are welcomed.

All religions define God in this manner. But when we take a look at the characteristics of God in various religions, they do not match. Hence, we cannot be serving the same God. My analogy of it is like the tune of music: both the Quran and Bible have completely different tunes on the nature of God.

enilove:
It is because their god claims he is the God of Abraham , Isaac and Jacob .

How and why he made that claim is what we need to look into.
It might be true or false.

If you have carefully read the Quran, and compared the nature of the God in bible, to the nature of God in the Quran, you will see that they are completely two different personages. The God of the Quran is authoritative and only makes his will known. But this is not so in the bible. The God of the Bible wants fellowship with man. In fact, the story of God in the bible can be likened to a story of a man in search of his lost son.

I do not know why Muslims keep looking for their allah in our bible.

Lai Mohammed and his band of misfits with tag this as untrue.

This man did not do his research properly. The bulk of the illiterates can only be found in one place :Northern Nigeria.

A bad CGPA is not the end of life and neither is it a yardstick by which success is deternined. But my advice is that you focus on graduating. And most importantly, hold on to God.

Peace

In 2015? Op, it is too early for this type na.

You literally don’t know what you’re saying. Where’s the lack of exposure? Do you know a Nigerian Medic can train himself to standard levels?even better than others in top tier countries?
If it was curriculum, I’d say medicine in Nigeria is one of the courses that cannot be affected by outdated curriculum. Why? They don’t depend on lecturers. Right from year two, medics would have gotten standard textbooks used globally like grays anatomy, Hutton physiology, and all. Then they’ll read the textbooks and also reading materials.
You said lack of foundation? How do you mean? Is it the same Nigerian Medics that ace Plab, and usmle and go over to uK or Us to practice? Don’t think about that. The only thing limiting Nigerians in education is themselves and not necessarily the system.

[/s] Please go out there, and when you come back, talk to me.

jesmond3945:
what is your experience with skin heads

They do not like blacks in general. And they are quite violent

We have seen this before. And something tells me it will end up like the image below

Only God knows the answer o

It is well brother. I know how it can be. But just keep pushing. And lastly, try and get a skill, just to be on the safe side.

This man is just a joker.

tsagir:
GO AND READ YOUR BIBLE OR ASK YOU PASTOR

I am with my bible and it does not prohibit drinking. And my Pastor is has told me that drinking is not forbidden. So what is your point exactly?

psucc:
Oga, abeg what is the reason for your doggedness? Why this high level of confidence? I am a pro-Trump but the updates I see dwindles my hope.

In fact, your post is the only straw I am holding on to

He might be based in the US.

This is why I am in support of the death penalty. If this man had been executed, there would be no need for tax payers to pay for security checks on him. Society would be safer knowing people like him were remove from the face of the earth

People keep misinterpreting everything this man says. But one thing I believe is this


Trump will be president again, and Joe Biden and his cohorts will be charged for electoral fraud!

CodeTemplar:
Did Jesus force his faith on people? No. Their faith pushed them towards Jesus. Let the Italians locate the oil and apply it.

The oil does not save Mr Man. It is the faith of the person, who believes, that Jesus will heal him, will be saved. The oil this man is peddling around can be for a business venture for all I know.

Let him carry his oil to the isolation centers in Italy and see if he will return alive.

May God never allow us reach the age where we can no longer discern between what is real from what is not.

Miracle1991:
may be you should go and read what you just wrote or ask your grandma to explain to what you mean by (not providing anything).

[/s] I cannot engage you in stupidity. Sorry

Miracle1991:
I thought you said no yoruba city provide anything aside from Lagos?
Why didn't you school in the yeast? Or abi no school there?

Your analogy is seriously lame. Are schools not found in every nook and cranny of Nigeria? Please read my post very well because it seems you are on a mission of ignorance which I can not accommodate right now.

odinson1:
Bro it's a woman with stinking pussy you are quoting

Seriously? Please pardon my ignorance

Miracle1991:
what are you doing in Akure, ibadan,

Please read my post. I never said I was staying in Akure. I only schooled in Idoani(FGC Idoani) and Ibadan (Iwo road near Gem bread bakery ) was were we would go on holidays to see my grandmother.

Sturd:
YOU must be an Adamant fool, what is it with you and their religion??.....you better pray say make you no see death this night....hater

Why not stop making insolent threats and contribute to the discussion. Or can you kindly tell us why all of them are Muslims who keep wearing bags in public places?

Robi65:
that is the lie they keep telling you

It seems to me you are a weak man. That is why you do not subscribe to acknowledging the redpill.

Newton85:
Business opportunities not available in their own homelands abi? And yeah, we love our "ekuru hamlets" like that, that's why your people invade these same "ekuru hamlets" like mendicant gypsies and homeless refugees from war-torn countries and were even fighting in Akure to have their Eze Ndigbo recognized. You're not Yoruba, and you'll never be, oloriburuku IPOB scoundrel and impostor.

Hahahaha... So they are now Gypsies abi? Money-making gypsies you cannot acknowledge, abi? Or shall we call them the gypsies that Lagos depends on for financial sustenance...? Hahaha... Chai...anyway, you can say whatever pleases you sha. But learn to swallow the truth. Cheers

The redpill is the best thing to happen to mankind since the discovery of sliced bread.

tsagir:
QUATE THE BIBLE ABOUT THE MATTER MUMU,EVEN YOUR RELIGION FORBID IT.

My religion does not forbid drinking. But that is not the point here. The point of emphasis is on Hisbah destroying what they(Hisbah) perceive as "haram ", but their salaries are paid from haram money. So is this no hypocrisy on the part of your brothers in Hisbah?

Newton85:
Shut the Bleep up, you're a deplorable IPOB cretin masquerading as Yoruba. Your spurious, nonsensical IPOB's "without Seaport Lagos is nothing" and "majority of Lagos IGR are from Igbos" talking points have given you away. This monumental halfwit even called other Yoruba states "hamlets." The same "hamlets" that your dearly beloved Igbos run to in droves like homeless refugees and gypsies?Utter swine!

[/s] Your stupidity was suppose to be our little secret but now you have exposed it. Now let me tell you one big secret : you are not expose. You only pretend to be, but deep down, you and I both know you are one of those shallow nigerians with little or no travel experience. And how do I know this? I know this because of the rubbish you posted. And see it here :

I wonder why your Igbos can't boost their own IGR in their own states with their 2-by-2 shops!


This statement alone says you have not even traveled out of that ékurú hamlet you live in. In case you do not the know, the Igbos are business people by nature. And they travel in search of business opportunities elsewhere. Which is why you will find them in every nook and cranny under God's heaven. So that means they are not localized according to your lame idea of them.
