HedwigesMaduro:
If Jesus implied He was the Father, and still says "the Father is greater than I am", wouldn't that be a contradiction?

Not a contradiction. You forget that Jesus has two natures : a divine nature and a human nature. In essence He was two people . Which is why the Colossians 2:9 said " the fullness of the Godhead in bodily form dwells in Jesus

Janosky:
John 20:17 & Revelation 3:5,12 did Jesus Christ in heaven and Earth, agree with your claim?


Oga, does Good Almighty have a Father?
Did you Trinitarians & Kaluch say they are 3 persons?
Why would Jesus Christ be his Father?


Confused polytheists

But you and i don't serve the same God so how can you even contribute to this discussion? Your Jesus is angel Michael while mine is the God who was the word that created the heavens and the earth

Sweetplum:
He told is disciples to cooperate with eachother (unionism), that He's the way to his father. And if anyone believe in him, such as believed in God Almighty.
Read this verse: John 17:21 “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.”
So...who's Jesus father? God Almighty.
The similarity or comparison arose cos Jesus resembled God in character/nature.

But that's not true . In John 14 :8 , Philip asked Jesus to show them His Father ? And what was His reply? John14:9 Have I been with you so long ,and yet you have not known me Me Philip? He who has seen Me has the seen the Father ;so how can you say show us the Father ? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me?

This plainly says that Jesus is the Father , which happens to be a very , very strong claim . In fact, it was for this reason the Jews wanted to stone Him in John8:58 because He blasphemed and made the claim He was God .

Sweetplum:
You just added confusion.
There's God Yahweh, Jehovah, Allah, Olodumare, Olorun. There's Jesus, a creation by God that was exalted to the post of a son.
Jesus is called God cos he behaves like God in a like father like son manner. That's why He's the most honoured. You can compare him with the Angels. But He earned higher honour for daring to come to the world as human to suffer & die for sins of mankind.
So if a Christian says Jesus is God, what they are saying is He's like God cos He has attained the post of son. A son has right like the father.
Non Christians who doesn't understand this think Christians are worshipping Jesus.
Whereas Jesus only teach Christians how to pray to God using His name & believing in Him.

If Jesus is not God Almighty then who is God ? Have you forgotten that Jesus always spoke about His father ? Who is His Father and what did He tell His disciples when they asked about who His Father was?

This is a classic case of what the bible calls an "underserved curse has no resting place " . But if you're guilty you go collect, especially if the person is truly innocent in the eye of God

temielects:
how about this result here?...what can one study with this

Maybe literature in English or Theatre arts . Check the UTME brochure for a comprehensive list

A lot of people differ on this but I'll hold my peace on this matter .

toxtimmy:
lol... all the computer science student that went through nigerian universities dey laugh you... to be honest you make a chimpanzee look like a professor... despite all the physics una study una no fit build bicycle in nigeria.

carry on wearing your shoe before you wear your socks...and don't forget the animal that rules your country of millions of people like you does not have a waec or did he pass physics in aso rock.

// Jashub first program

class HelloWorld
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("I Jashub is a big mumu!";
}
}

[/s] You're being more stupid than necessary. But that's okay since this is Nairaland

ppogba:
How dare you argue with somebody who studied Computer science without physics at MIT?

Be guided ooo.

[/s] You're a fvcking nobody whose only talent is ignorance

[s]

toxtimmy:
Please stop giving fake news... computer science does not require physics even in MIT.

There is nothing wrong if you say you dont know.

Problem with universities in nigeria is they are looking for ways to stop you from going to university... while in advance country dem look for ways to get you in and let you be the architect of your future

[/s] Stop being stupid. Most universities in Nigeria require physics before studying computer science . Check UTME before making noise like an idiòt

Just say you're lazy and incompetent then we'll know how to deal with your mindset . You coming here and generalizing doesn't change the fact that there are many Christians (excluding pastors ) who are millionaires ten times over

Goodlyhrt:
Why I am this worried is because I have gotten jamb form

Bro, just try and look for any school that allows awaiting results. And while you're at it find out if the school gives admission to students without physics. If it doesn't work out then retake the exam...or go to open university. School na school as far as 9ja is concerned

Goodlyhrt:
what if I go for a lesser science course like computer related course?

Computer still requires physics . And except the university is lenient they won't grant you admission

You're science student and with a D in Physics and biology, it will be hard to secure any admission into any science related course. So my best advice is for you to retake the exams

Hellfire straight .

From my own analysis, you're still dreaming .

This clown is on another mission that's very far from unraveling the death of his late father . If not why did it take so long for him to speak up ?.

She never see anything yet. By the time her unborn children show face , na shame go push them to stone their mama

Nigeria will only get worse. Mark my words

Imagine insults. This fool is also part of the problem but he will never see that. Anyway, I do not blame him; I blame the a Nigerian public for even granting his the privilege of serving as minister of aviation

The military is just hearing of this now? Haba...this thing has been going on for long and it is a shame that for the Chief of Defense to be reporting about it after years of being in office.

MoIbrahim:
1. This is Ango Abdullahi's son, not he himself

2. Ango the father has not been a supporter of Buhari. Check your facts.

3. Not every northerner supporter Buhari. Not every sputherner opposed Buhari.

4. Wake up!

[/s] Ango Abdullahi has always been a full supporter of Buhari. From his days as VC in ABU, Ango has always been Buhari's right-hand tool for gandering support in the North . Even in NEF , he still waved support for Buhari during his second campaign. So go and get your facts right

Introduction to SIMP

I wish I could double like this comment

The person above me has taken best comment so far

My brother, you are dealing with a manipulative woman whose desire is to see she controls your emotional buttons.

So here is my advice : call and tell her you want to speak with her in private. Pick a public place, and tell her how you feel about her shenanigans. Then wait and see her response. If she promises to stop sending your number , good and fine . If not ,end the relationship there and leave her to the multiple lovers she claims to have .

This will save you the stress of worrying if she is faithful or not . Because the way I see her , she is the type who may love to eat her cake and have it . And that means she will never be satisfied with you being her only support system

Kobojunkie:
1. Again...Jesus Christ's, the one sent to Redeem us from God's curse, explicit instructions to His followers is that they don't work for food that perishes. Not that we go shove our beliefs on others. What Jesus Christ declared sin is our working for perishable food. Simple as that!

---

Since you seem to be having a hard time with this let me explain. God's plan is not and was never to make those who followers Holy by removing them from unholiness - this world. He sent Jesus Christ down to this same world to live, did He not? Yet living in this world did not make Jesus Christ unholy this because Jesus Christ instead live His life in submission of God's commandments and Will. He wasn't tainted by using the things built by the hands of men neither was He made impure by eating food from their unholy labors.

God's plan is pretty straightforward - Holiness through obedience of His commandments - John 8 vs 31 - 33.

2. Again, tithes and offering are of God's Old Law given explicitly to the children of Israel by God - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 - the very same Law God then sent Jesus Christ to redeem the children of Israel from. So, your tithing and offerings have nothing to do with that which God has commanded of you so it is sin to claim to do it in God's name cause He also warned to add commandments to His Law.

God never gave you tithes and offerings for a commandment to begin. So pretending to do in God's name that which God never asked of you is sin against God. It amounts to adding commandments to God’s Law which He gave to you.

3. Since when did your Bible become known as the "Book of the Law"? Also, since you quote from Joshua, that means you don't pay credence to what God said in Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 then?.

4. Again, God never asked you to obey the bible,the book, neither did He instruct you obey anything else but Jesus Christ- He was that specific in Luke 9 vs 35 & Mark 9 vs 7 & Matthew 17 vs 1 - 5. So your claim does not align with that God in fact commands and is written right there in the book you claim to obey, so how can it be said of Him??

Still eluding the questions. But I will post them because they are the truth :

Why did you keep the phone that was paid for through sweat and labor , why collect what you say is cursed and abominable? Why preach what you do not practice ? Or is that not hypocrisy?.


2. Where in scripture is it written that offerings and tithes are now sins ? Please provide valid scriptural references , and while you are at it , stop inserting your garb that makes absolutely no sense or meaning to the discussion at hand .


3. God said " on this book of law shall you mediated day and night, that it might go well with you and you may have success " (Joshua 1:8.) So why should I not obey the bible when God has commanded in several passages to obey it.

Why are you telling me to disobey my God since you do not like the bible ?

Lol...the first person to cast the first stone will be shot by the DSS. The best thing is for Nigerians to be united but that is impossible. Our tribalism and religious madness will never let us be united.
