aManFromMars: Smh.

I guess you're spreading nonsense stories about evolution in your meeting. Hope you don't use as prayer points. I know una. tongue
lol. If only you were there. Why would I start talking about evolution? I dey mad? I just preached the simple gospel message, and God convicted and supported. Na only una I dey argue evolution with.

Unfortunately here in nigeria, though people are taught evolution, it seems to wash off their heads like cold water on stone. grin
They don't apply evoltution in real life, just as most don't apply Jesus Christ in real life. But, as you can see, the latter is about to become the past.

I remember coming out of my CVA class after an evolution session, na so I and my friend tok about the class reach gate, come forget about the whole thing after boarding a cab. Lol.

Christianity EtcYou'd Like To Meet The Bible God? Let's Examine Parameters And Possibilities. by Joshthefirst(op): 8:29pm On Nov 22, 2013
Most peeple(at least the people I observe) have some issue with the bible God. They're either trying to advocate complete denial of him, or complete acceptance and total commitment to him, or they claim be his spokesmen and use the authority(?) given by claiming his name to impose rules or judgdments and make their points carry more weight.

Now. Let those who do not know the bible God ask themselves what their image of him is, and if they would actually like to meet him. Let's analyze:

The bible gives the image of a conscious God. A person, who can speak and relate with men(even appearing to them in visions shocked grin). That gives us the questions:
Why for petes sake hasn't he spoken to everyone in the world, and spoken to us in person?
Why for pete's sake do people who claim to know him seemingly claim to know him in their heads? Why do they seem to be divided in their concept of him? How do we know who's right and who's wrong?


Since its the bible God that seems to be the most popular, we should conclude that he should come to us in person and prove himself to us shouldn't we? We're tired of hearing the stu.pid ramblings of those who claim to know him? We refuse to believe those who claim to know this bible God, we refuse to look at their lifestyles, we conclude that if there are hypocrites, there must be no disciples. If there are fakes, there must be no original?
God will have to come to us in person then?

Okay. First, do you have an idea of the bible Gods character? Do you even have an idea of what it means to be God? To be the boss? If the bible God truly created heaven and earth, and even you, do you supposedly think he'd be at your beck and call? Do you think he'd surrender himself to your standards of hooking up? Or should you surrender yourself to his?

Alright alright, let's move on to the second point:
Do you honestly want to meet this bible God now? I mean, honestly? If he exists? Would you really like to meet him? If he's truly all he said he is? Well for one thing, I certainly wouldn't want to meet a powerful man who I've scorned and mocked and hated with all my guts, would you? Talk less of a powerful God?. Oh my. I wouldn't want to meet a God who according to his claims, he gives me the very oxygen I breathe and sustains the very life I live and yet I've cried aloud several times: "F*ck you bible God?! Or hailed those who have done the same?

I certainly wouldn't want to meet this God who's a judge and according to his law I'm a condemned criminal. I certainly would find it unpleasant meeting a person more powerful than I whom I've hated and downgraded and mocked then? My my.

Well. The bible God (according to his bible) has a more lenient and less potent form of meeting you; through the acceptance of the message of Jesus Christ of course. grin

But let's hold on now,

[size=20pt]Do you actually and honestly want to meet this bible God in your current state?[/size] I suggest you put your self in order first, after all, he has already scheduled an appointment with you cool

Christianity EtcRe: Even Water Proves That Atheism Is False. by Joshthefirst(m): 5:26pm On Nov 22, 2013
nwuyag: Why do you conclude that I am an atheist? Because I said the truth about christians?
please when did I claim you're an atheist?

nwuyag: The op made you seem intelligent. Its cool. It doesnt make you any less delusioned as you really are.

What is the purpose of the preaching?
We preach to tell the lost to tell the lost the way of salvation, to tell the condemned their good news. I admit that these few days, I have not been preaching as I should. I have been debating with an aim to show God-haters their foolishness only and without an aim to walk in love and extend the gospel by all means. I have corrected myself. smiley

nwuyag: Mr Joshthefirst. I dont frequently post on NL for a few reasons. Sometimes, its better to sit back and watch and learn; that way, you will understand perspectives better. One big conclusion I can make is that christians(especially apologists) are like a bunch of paupers, debating the richest amongst billionaires and insulting those who dont make the top ten. One thing I know is that if all atheist decide to be deist/agnostic deists, under no form of organized religion, you wont be able to make a single claim against them.
@ bolded, I have seen you act like a "holier than thou" on many of your posts. Please, dont ever make claims that you dont insult christians.
huh

How did you come to this conclusion?



when did I insult christians?



Btw, have you seen some recent threads and posts expressing mock hatred and cussing on God?
grin
Hilarious I tell ya.


Ask yourself this question sir:

What is the normal way to treat something you believe does not exist? By ignoring It perhaps?

The irony of atheism or whatever sir;
I believe God does not exist, yet I feel a deep hatred for him beyond measure. I curse at him in my immorality, and cheer others on In trying to mock a god I don't believe exists.

Let conscience and the Holy Spirit do their works now.

Have a good day sir. smiley

This guy mocks the catholic church and bastardizes the meaning of "catholic" then runs here to get insurance that his comments should not be hidden. When he has gotten such favours in the past, why not now?


And of course, when you have 3 non-catholic christians as mods..............................................................

Christianity EtcRe: Yahweh And Freewill by Joshthefirst(m): 9:16pm On Nov 21, 2013
RationalDude: ^^^ I wonder how Christians make sense of these things.
if yours is the voice of reason, I'll keep my "delusions" thank you.

Enjoy foolish reasoning.

God is responsible for my sins. Why should I be punished for doing wrong? Why should God punish me for exercising freewill(seriously?)? Life as we know it is from non-directed randomness, we evolved morality, our fore-fathers didn't know right from wrong. T-rex became a chicken, we humans are machines, wrong-doing is simply human, there's nothing we can do about it, consciousness will be synthesized in the near future, aliens might be out there, etc etc.

The amount of foolishness we put up with here everyday is enough to make one think man is becoming stupider each moment, and hailing his more stjupid thinkers.
Christianity EtcRe: Yahweh And Freewill by Joshthefirst(m): 9:08pm On Nov 21, 2013
aManFromMars: Good. So explain to me how knowledge of an event before the characters exist, and which the characters must follow when they begin to exist, isn't an illusion of Freewill to the character?
you're always making a mistake and repeating the same thing in the bolded. How many times have I stated that Gods knowledge of you does not infringe on your choices and actions? How many times? Your choices make up his ultimate knowledge, not the other way around. Examine Gods actions and tell me if his will always gets done.
Christianity EtcRe: Yahweh And Freewill by Joshthefirst(m): 7:28pm On Nov 21, 2013

yes. Isn't that what all knowing means?

plaetton: Dohhhh!

How many times does one have to repeat it to these bible-heads?
Atheism is not a philosophical proposition .
It is simply a repudiation of a proposition by simply pointing out the non-appearance, not-detectibility and zero proof of the suspiciously invisible god.
An atheists only has to ask " where is god?". I should be able to see and hear god just like you do.
If I do not, then god probably does not exist.

Secondly, I have never put forward my lifestyle as being perfect .
Perfect as compared to what? Adam and Eve? Sky daddy's host of Angels?

If sky-daddy's angels could rebel against him long before the creation of man, then isn't it quite idiotic to blame man, a latecomer and a celestial new-born for the problems of the universe?

What is a perfect life, whom do you know that has ever lived it?

Get serious and start thinking before you post.
take your own advise and start thinking before you post. I asked a simple question. How do we know your atheism, your repudiation of God is correct and backed up by reality? How does it counter the basis of mybelief and knowledge of God in real life?
And you reply by typing nonsense about perfection and other nonsense about angels.
Seriously did you read your post?
I might as well tell you your wife doesn't exist then. I've never heard from her or seen her. Or oxygen does not exist.




In the laboratory, silly rabbit.
That is where most of the truths of the universe have been gleamed and determined in just over the last few hundred years.
seriously? You're making me get hyped up you know. Do you have any idea how many so called truths of the universe have been refuted and adjusted and speculated during the last few hundred years? Smh.



Absolutely sir.

I am living in the freest era of human history.
I am not a slave, nor a surf.
I have the right of self-determination.
I enjoy fundamental rights and dignity as a human being.

I have freedom of association and freedom of religion, as well as an inalienable right to reject same.

I am free from the guilt of any sins or crimes committed by my ancestors, right back to the mythical Adam and eve.
I owe no sacrifice in blood or currency to any invisible man or spirit in the sky.
[size=20pt]I am free to take full responsibility for all my actions,[/size] and not live under a false illusion of forgiveness, or of another mythical human/spirit washing away my sins.

I am free to use my evolved faculties of thought and discernment to think, imagine and project the best possible scenarios for for peace , harmony and the protection and enhancement of human dignity everywhere.

Humans have come a long way , and are quite capable of evolving laws and systems that achieve the above desired goal.

No invisible schizophrenic sky- fairy is included or Needed.
its good you know you're supposed to take responsibility for your actions, and you also know that your actions have been imperfect...we all know where this is going.....



But it is foolishness to call forgiveness an illusion sir.
