Misogynist2014:
Jesus died for our sins and we are saved by His grace. E.g. 1000 robbers are to be executed and a man comes out to die for them, isn't it right to say he died their sins and died a thousand deaths? What if 100 refuse to accept he was being killed for their sake? Aren't they to be lined up and executed accordingly?
Why should their accepting it make any difference? So if all 1000 say no, the man is a fool and didn't die for us, the death would be a waste wouldn't it?

The carnal mind does not understand d things of God -neither can he know them for they are spiritually decern.
The things of God does not appeal to d senses. It will always sound foolish to d mind.

Be that as it may- I'll try my best to be as simple as possible; d entrance of Gods word gives light...unto d simple.

In Gensis the only HUMANS God created were Adam and Eve -correct? Yes.
The whole of Humanity was in the LOINS (seed- *permit me* sperm) of Adam. When Adam obeyed satan by eating d fruit -he partake of d nature of satan together with all d seeds in him- this is why d books of Romans declared dt 'all man fell and fall short of d glory of God'

Now God wants to restore man back to Himself and being a just God He must do it justly because He has declared dt d "wages of sin is death"

Man is not qualified to save himself because of d nature of satan in him- Hence d birth of Jesus who was born not of d will of d flesh nor of corruptible seed but of God.

How Jesus Died for Our sin?
SIN here is d nature of satan in man by which no man can see God.
In d book of Isaiah it was prophesied concerning Jesus that -He was bruised for our transgression; Jesus himself declared at d last supper "ds is my blood dt is shed for many for d remission of sin"
He being just remit this to man's account and took d sin nature of man. He took d place man.


I hope this helps. Would have love to quote every bible passage used here but i guess dt can be done on request in ordee not to bore u.

If u haven't then pls do- Be born of God.
If the things of ur God don't appeal to ur senses, what do u do? You either dumb your senses or dumb your God
Abeg my senses are too precious for me

Pls this Adam, is he the ancestor of us Africans? What concerns us with Jewish ancestors and their sin?

shortgun:
Let me give you d gist as simple as possible.
We all know that the wages of sin is death abi....every soul that sin shall encounter death.
Death was the punishment for sin.

Here comes a man Jesus who has no sin, never committed any sin but was punished by death....... that was an abnormally, it was not supposed to happen..... The Devil goofed by punishing a man with death who committed no singrin

Because of this, the order of things has to change, the Devil was no longer incharge..... POWER has to change hands, the power of life and death has to be given to this man who has no sin but was killed, he has the power to save people who come to him.
He became the way, the truth and life, he became the king of kings, he became the head of the principalities and powers.
Buddha, Confucius, Orunmila, Horus, Krishna, Mithra, Dionysus also had no sin, rather than die a worthless death of sacrifice like a goat, they taught how to live righteous like them and become Higher souls as sons of God

Victoriousvic:
The Passion of the Christ is a movie I'm not sure I can watch more than once. I watched it a few months back, and honestly, it made me truly realize how Christ actually suffered for me. I remember crying after the movie was over, cos the brutality and torture was just too much.

I couldn't bear to look at it, yet I still couldn't take my eyes off the screen.

It got me to that point where I could really stop and think and appreciate the sacrifice that Christ made for me.
Pls stop flattering urself. Jesus suffered just like every other person who got the bad end of the Roman rod
If you watch 100 clips of Roman crucifixion, bucket go full

I don't know what you mean by logical but here goes..........
When God created man(Adam),he was a man without sin(he had a God nature).Unfortunately,he took of the forbidden apple in the garden of Eden and sinned(died).From then he took on a sin nature.
Every man born of a woman inherits that nature(it's not the sin committed but the nature).Man has to be free from that nature and take on the God nature-the nature of righteousness.
Jesus came and brought this nature.He was born of a woman but did not have the seed of man and so did not inherit the sin nature.For the forgiveness of sins,there had to shedding of blood but beyond shedding of blood,it was more about taking up the nature of righteousness found only in Jesus.

There had to be an exchange.His nature of righteousness for our nature of sin.This he accomplished on the cross and by His resurrection.
The pope cannot do it because he does not have the nature of righteousness and no prophet could do it either.
What's all this nature, nature, exchange this thathuh
What's the formula for this equation?

Seeming irregularities in the Bible do not discourage believers, because of their God given faith.

Some read the Bible looking for Truth, those who seek the Truth find it unto Salvation.

Rom_1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

2Ti_3:15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
What truths do the Bible hold?
You should be ashamed believing a man died 2000yrs before you were born, yet this death is a fraud cus Jesus needs to die spiritually to save us spiritually

Tattoo, mark of a slave...
Foolish slowpoke. Tattoo is a pure African culture
Infact non outside African cherish tattoo like us...at least until ur masters came along to steal your brain

Idrismusty97:
We all passed through this phase. I don't believe in the supernatural, we Africans attribute anything we can't explained to be supernatural. I believe discoveries can be made, so called "Extraordinary occurrence" can be checkmate and explained logically. Remember malaria was once supernatural occurrence, a curse by the gods?
We Africans?? More like Christians
I don't think there's such a word for supernatural in any African language

Shut up! That's how you people spread lies
Malaria supernatural occurrence? From wat era was this? Before my ancestors knew of Oruwo leaves that cured the thing
There's no such thing as supernatural in my knowledge of African traditions

OK. Af'ogbon~ologbon s'ogbon won ite boro. Ijapa l'ojo t'oun ti gbon-gbon ho, l'orun o ti w'oun mo. The place is too 'far away' to you: It shows that you are the measure of how 'far' or how near the ancestors can go. Have you lived across the phases of time to know the ambitions that drove men in ancient time? What is the yardstick for your conclusion? Do u have restrictions on Sea? My ancestors were maritime people (Awori, Tori-nu: water travellers). Like Colombus, they were ambitious and they came in search of 'Ile Ibudo'. Aren't you in touch with Prof. Wande Abimbola anymore? Study his Ifa precept, on the entry that says "adifa fun Oba Ado, Ejigbara ileke, nijo ti'nlo ree bawon mule Ibudo."
But really this is simple. You said you have "findings" surely they are not dreams or faith talk but facts that can be relayed and presented as proof for a Hebrew-Yoruba connection
Christianity Etc › Re: Quiz For Those Who Say Jesus Is Not God!!!!!!! by macof(m): 4:34pm On Apr 03, 2015
bingbagbo:
What makes the letter "J" very special is-JESUS
was born in JUDEA which is in JERUSALEM
whose father was JOSEPH the son of JACOB. He
was baptised by JOHN the baptist in the most
popular river JORDAN; which is located at the
wilderness of JUDEA. JAMES and JOHN were his
best disciples, he was also known as the king
of the JEWS. He was sold by JUDAS Iscariot just
for thirty pieces of silver and when he died,
JOSEPH of Arimathea requested for his body
and was buried in JERUSALEM, that's why he is
the God of JUSTICE. Finaly his name is
JEHOVAH JIREH!
Are we having a nursery rhyme or what? This is nonsense that has nothing to do with the fact that Jesus is dead and gone

anyone who is mentally stable would want children
It's part of our human essence to desire to procreate
