Logicboy03: No.

What matters is what one consults the bible for.

You dont consult the bible to know what stew you should cook for your husband
Why then would one consult the bible on matters of science?


The bible is for religious peeps and their spirituality......not for cooking or science
so science doesn't agree with the bible?

@ musk. The pilot is here with us, in us, warning people everyday. Confirming his word with signs thereof.

But the pilot can never force grown men to wear their parachutes. God speaks through us. He warns of impending judgement. Its a matter of who you choose to believe. If God comes here in all his power, he will end sin and sinners forever. He comes to the world in a much more calm and a power filled way. He comes to you by the words of the guy that preaches the genuine message. The one who knocks on your door. The one who preaches online. You reject him everyday.

aManFromMars: Erm, what does it mean to be saved from sin?
it means that all the sins that you've commited since you were born and are remitted and you're declared completely innocent before God and perfect in righteousness and unworthy of hell. It also means you've been saved from the power of darkness. You no longer need to be in bondage of continually commiting sin because of lust. You're saved. You're also saved from everything that sin brought upon the world, the curse, etc, the salvation culminating on the last day.

It means you've become a citizen of heaven, a member of the family of God, able to know God.
What a blessed thing it is to be saved.






Did you read the write up?

Christianity EtcIn Or Out? by Joshthefirst(op):
It might end up being a long write up. Just chill and read, aiming to learn, not to spite.

Before we make myopic and false conclusions and world views, let us realize that our current world predicament has already been spoken of in the bible.
Let's see what the bible said would happen in the last days. Cool down and read a little.
E
2 Timothy 3(The message)1-5 Don't be naive. There are difficult times ahead. As the end approaches, people are going to be self-absorbed, money-hungry, self-promoting, stuck-up, profane, contemptuous of parents, crude, coarse, dog-eat-dog, unbending, slanderers, impulsively wild, savage, cynical, treacherous, ruthless, bloated windbags, addicted to lust, and allergic to God. THEY'LL MAKE A SHOW OF RELIGION, but behind the scenes they're ANIMALS. Stay clear of these people.

6-9 These are the kind of people who smooth-talk themselves into the homes of unstable and needy women and take advantage of them; women who, depressed by their sinfulness, take up with every new religious fad that calls itself "truth." They get exploited every time and never really learn. These men are like those old Egyptian frauds Jannes and Jambres, who challenged Moses. They were rejects from the faith, twisted in their thinking, defying truth itself. But nothing will come of these latest impostors. Everyone will see through them, just as people saw through that Egyptian hoax.

Keep the Message Alive

10-13 You've been a good apprentice to me, a part of my teaching, my manner of life, direction, faith, steadiness, love, patience, troubles, sufferings—suffering along with me in all the grief I had to put up with in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. And you also well know that God rescued me! Anyone who wants to live all out for Christ is in for a lot of trouble; there's no getting around it. Unscrupulous con men will continue to exploit the faith. They're as deceived as the people they lead astray. As long as they are out there, things can only get worse.



-Well, sin, and consequently, God, put all men under 2 groups, whether you're atheist, agnostic, religious, or just that woman who is always falling for one obviously heretical preacher or the other, whatever, whoever you are, you're either saved from sin or not.

People have used the real christian faith as a religion to exploit others as the bible rightly foretold. That does not reduce the genuineness of the real message we preach.(Edit: or distort the integrity of the real people of God, people of love)

Christ will soon come as a judge. You gotta get saved from sin, for he punishes iniquity, and you stand guilty. Jesus is the way your sins can be forgiven.
Accept him today and be saved from that terrible menace, be delivered from the power of darkness and the dead-end of unholiness and lust. Its simple.

If you shall believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, and confess with your mouth that Jesus is lord, you shall be saved from sin.

Think...

Men can't handle the truth, that's why they try so much to speak against it.

Secularist: Heheheheee

Without people like you the world would know peace. People like you with your narrow mindedness are the reason for all the carnage in the world, you are the reason the human existence has not moved further. You are anti-evolution, retrogressive and if people like us did not exist you would have all died of some disease or something by now without stressing to find a cure under the belief that your gods are punishing you.

Secularist: Word!

How can debate someone who believes he is seeing things you cant see? Where do you start with such a person?

Dude i know you must be real popular here but i would strongly advise you dont engage these guys, it would not lead anywhere.

“When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called a Religion.”

― Robert M. Pirsig

They take pride in their madness because of their number, it has always been like that in different ages under different religious headings.
nope. You're wrong.
He can't help but engage us wherever he goes. Without us, you guys'll be living a boring life. cool

Secularist: You guys are cracking me up.

Since your god is so powerful why dont you let him fight for you? Pray and tell your god to strike me with thunder, till then let my thread be abeg. I have no qualms with you, you are simply a by product of indoctrination and unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about it.

Okay, I am kidding. Your way is the truth and the light, i don hear, please leave now.

When was it by force to discuss with religious people, i wonder how long before you guys start preaching to us with a koran or bible in hand and a machete in another...wait, i forget, that was how your religions became popular.

Please i only want to converse with like minds, you can go now and save yourselves from being enlightened.
you are the one heavily indoctrinated with falsehood





If God strikes you with thunder, you'll quickly find yourself in hell. What's the point? Stay alive and be preached to a while, who knows, you might change.

Secularist: Seriously mates, if you dont belong here leave. I don't want to derail this thread by saying anything negative to you.

This thread is for people who can question religion and have evolved. The Majority did not make the earth flat with all their hateful bashing of the truth. History will almost always repeat itself.
grin shocked
Evolved! Omo! This one na strong thing o.
Chai!!!!!!!!!!!
Smh.

You sound like something out of a sci-fi movie.

Keep evolving in sin and lawlessness. Call me whatever you want. The wages of sin is death and the free-gift of God is life. Keep sinning, you gonna end up in hell dude. Swallow your pride.

I actually like apple. My only problem is that the design of their products don't change. Its the same year in year out. "This product is 7% faster". "This product is 3.654 slimmer". Blah blah blah.

I want to see some changes.
