Don't be a fool my friend. The Real Isrealites were not white but black!!
Isrealites are children of Shem (black with beauty), Africans are the children of Ham (Black like the raven), while Japhet was the father of whites.
Africans and Isrealites looked alike because both were blacks (read your bible very well)!!!
grin rossik and mr. President would like this

But you see you really stupid gan.
West Africans have no "Ham" in our ancestry, aborigine West Africans like Igbo, Yoruba, akan, ijaw and Bantus of Central Africa have no links outside Africa and thereby have no "Ham"

Maybe when you speak of ham you should point to Cushites and Berbers and other Afro-asiatic people leaving out the inner and larger parts of Africa

and modern acclaimed descendants of shem are light/brown skinned living in the middle east
There's no black in "Semitic"

Instead of you to take responsibility for your own actions and trust Him, you're spewing rubbish and blaming Him for your problems, and you wonder why your situation isn't changing. God is no respecter of persons. Digging yourself into more sin isn't going to help. Humble yourself before Him and ask for forgiveness.
Lol if the OP takes responsibility for his actions then he doesn't need to trust a God

The hope in a God out there raises when you can't take responsibility for your actions...you begin to pray for divine intervention and all the sort

I follow traffic because of the importance of road safety. I follow the laws of the govt. Which ones do u follow? Plaetton has said that there is no structure to the atheist worldview, which leaves much to be desired. Anyone can then create his own moral code to live by.

Bros, e never reach insult level, ok? Wht makes u different from religious fundamentalists if u insult anyone who questions ur worldview?
Of course, everyone and anyone can create his own moral code...like one of my moral code is to tell a man he is foolish when I think him foolish
Does USA and Nigeria have the same moral code? Do Yorubas and Igbos have the same moral code?

Morality is not universal bro

If death is d end of existence, then what is the use of life? Merely an accident between two nothingness. Morality, then will be useless because there is nothing after this accident called life.
If however there is an afterlife or a deity who either rewards or punishes in d afterlife, the outlook is indeed not as gloomy and we can use him as a standard of measurement in morality
Lmao cheesy this foolish ideology again...anony the second ..I hope the mumu doesn't come here grin

As Plaetton illustrated: do you follow traffic laws because you afraid of the police or because you know the importance of road safety?

asalimpo:
it makes sense to say wat the bible says not giv your private interpretation.
The bible talks of angels who left their first estate, and their place wasnt found in heaven no more.
They would fit d beings who took wives on earth. But d bible is silent on that.
Two, lucifer and his bunch, thought they'll win. Hav they?
Their track record is one of defeat after defeat. Any angel with brains on will see and learn.
He tried a coup in heaven - was thrown out.
He settled in d atmosphere btwn heaven and earth.
Tried to win the earth,since he lost in heaven, Adam was decieved-Earth keys went to satan. Great. Super victory.

God, allowed it,because satan had legal rights to d property-earth.

Satan thought God would forever condemn Man as He did angels-he was wrong. Man, was given a second chance.
Again,Satan lost.

God, promised a deliverer,Satan was on d lookout to kill any who looked like one. Abel went down, many prophets were slain.
Yet,Jesus, was born-satan failed again.

Next,working thru the then king , He incited mass slaughter of babies. But Jesus had left for egypt the night before. Oops! Satan miscalculated again.

Now,He was sure that Jesus was the One. He tried to play subtly.
He threw his temptations.
They backfired!
Satan literally ran out of ideas! Nothg to tempt with again!
Satan lost yet again.

Then he engineered the crucifixion. He was always a murderer. Did it work?
The broke legal laws by killing and innocent man. And till today,He's still regretting.
By this act,He became the ultimate fool.
Not only did he lose in his goal,he lost his previous rights and powers - the power of death and hell.
He was stripped.
Who laughed last?
Jesus rose triumphant.
Satan lost yet again?

Now , each time a person gives his life to Christ Satan winces because such a one has d potential to wreak havoc to his plans. Christianity bcomes like an ebola virus to his kingdom.
He's agenda is now to cause confusion,lethargy, laxness,disinterest in the church.

Eventually, he'll make one last move to forever seal people for hell and win the earth for himself - and he'll lose (on the earth part)

lastly, he has a terrible destiny.
A mere angel , not God , will throw him into his place of torment. In the lake of fire,he'll be howling to.

Would u wanna decamp to som1 with satan's track record?

He's a loser. Big time.
Cool story bro. I would love to see this play acted out cheesy

Then no one can prove it to you, except the Spirit of God visit you. I remember when I gave my life to Christ, I heard Him speak to me in a dream and He showed me things that qualify the Bible. I live my life before then in problems and after I received Him everything Change. So also you will only know his existence only when you try Him. I wish you would!
I thought you said the spirit of God is in every man? undecided

Allah is the same as God and im not condemning the Holy Quran. It is the same as the Bible only that it was twisted. You can research yourself why I said it was twisted.
Muslims also accuse Christians of twisting the Bible
So it still doesn't change the fact that Christians and muslims don't agree on what the true God has instructed...whether one or both have been twisted

Bible and Quran can't be right but they can both be wrong
And I say they are wrong until proven otherwise

shota:
Adumu might be the child of a prominent Ijaw man from the Agadagba bou which is now Kolokuma Opokuma area.. The ADUMU is actually the progenitor of many of the ancient Eastern Ijaw clans. He was a Priest of the ORU lodge . But Some historians link him to some Yoruba man that came to father the Ijaw race. An not sure about that and there is no evidence to that .
I still find it intriguing that these terms are synonymous in both Yoruba and Ijaw culture
"Adimu/Adumu" "Asain/Osain/Osayin" "otu-ife/ile-Ife"
All playing similar roles

I think if it's proven that there is such a connection and not just some group of mad men making jokes to bastardise history, Yoruba can learn from the Ijaw to understand more about our own history

there is only one God, the creator of Heaven and Earth. He cannot be represented by any image neither can He be seen with the naked eye. But you can feel His presence inside of you. "For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. 1Tim 2:5"
I completely agree with the bold...but the God I feel inside me is nothing like the Christian or Islamic gods
As a matter of fact the God I see in everything is nothing like Allah or Jehovah

Family › Re: A Thread For "Everything Polygamy"! by macof(m): 2:10pm On Oct 14, 2014
logicboy01:
Top lies used to promote polygamy;


1) It stops cheating
FALSE! If a man can cheat on one wife, what stops him from cheating on 2 or 3 or 4??


2) Allows for more children and also better in case of infertility
FALSE
-a man with four wives will have no children if the man is infertile
-just as a man can marry another wife to get children in polygamy one too can divorce his barren wife and marry a fertile one. Unfair but true
-Sensible societies have 2-3 or 2-4 children on average. Very easy for a fertile woman to have at least 2 children


3) More resources/income if all the wives plus husband earn money
HALF TRUE
There are more mouths to feed, so there is little difference.


4) More people get married if polygamy is allowed in the society
HALF TRUE
More women can potentially be married but it means less women for men to marry.
If every man married 4 wives, there needs to be a ratio of 4-1 in women to men. lipsrsealed




Polygamy has no single advantage over monogamy. Not even one.
Cheaters will cheat!!!
Doesn't change the fact that you can't dictate to a man in his own house. If having multiple wives suits him and the first wife approves I don't see how it's anybody's business undecided
Culture › Re: Ndigbo Originated From Egypt, Jacob’s Son Is The Father Of Nri – Monarch by macof(m): 2:05pm On Oct 14, 2014
onyedikachiyuda:
I really don't understand why some people are dying of ignorance, and yet they claim to know what they know not.

People should stop linking the IGBOS to WHITES; they were never whites but blacks (light skin). Claiming to be what you are not adds no value to your life. Believe it or not, the IGBOS are ANCIENT people (Ndi’gboo) and IGBO language is the very first language to be spoken on earth. IGBO as a language was the very language used for creation.
The DECEPTION was brought by the whites. How? There is not language originally as HEBREW. The so-called HEBREW was a copied work of IGBO. They sound alike does not mean that they are the same. Those people in the HOLY BOOK called HEBREWS are actually IGBOS. Never believe that IGBO is a corruption of HEBREW; rather so-called HEBREW is a corruption of IGBO. ‘ABIAMA’ (called ABRAHAM by the whites) was an IGBO man who made a Covenant with CHUKWUNNA.
In the holy bible, they keep on giving wrong interpretation of names of IGBOS (they could not speak). ‘ISHI-AKU’/ ‘ISA-AKU’ laughed a lot at childhood does not mean that his name means ‘Laughter’. ‘YAKO-OBU’ cheated his brother does not mean that his name means ‘cunning one’, and he fought with an ANGEL does not mean that ‘ISI-ARA-ELU’ means ‘he wrestled with GOD’. The same with ‘AHARA-ONU’, ‘MALA-CHI’ etc... AN THE DESCENDANTS OF JACOB WERE NOT WHITES; THEY WERE BLACKS (LIKE THE IGBOS).
ND’IGBOO (ANCIENT PEOPLE) long existed before every other people. IGBOS are the descendants of CHIMA (SHEM by the whites) and they have long-lived in IGBOLAND of NIGERIA. The people (Prophets and Priests) that they tell you about in the HOLY BOOK are IGBO PROPHETS and PRIESTS (holders of OFO; the symbol of Peace and Righteousness). BUT!!! That does not mean that the DESCENDANTS OF JACOB are not in IGBOLAND (most of them fled to their fathers land after the EXILE). IGBOS are of Ancient Origin, the PEOPLE spoken of by the ‘MOST HIGH’ in ISAIAH 44:7. IGBOS are the people that GOD CALLED HIS OWN PEOPLE.

This is the more reason why you see many people out of ignorance studying HEBREW as a language. Like I said before, there was no such language as HEBREW (copied language); what was in existence was IGBO (the DIVINE LANGUAGE OF GOD). REMEMBER!!! THE SCRIPTURE SAYS that CHRIST WILL RULE THE WORLD AFTER THE ORDER OF MELCHIZEDECK (THE ANCIENT HOLDER Of OFO).
This ignorance goes a long way. That is why most Christians criticize OMENALA ( THE CULTURE OF TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS) and even the preachers because they have little knowledge of BIBLE. OMENALA was never devised by anyone. Anyone who said that his GRANDFATHER devised OMENALA is a BIG LIAR. Since OMENALA was not devised by man, then how did it come about? This question will make you think more about GOD and his COMMANDMENTS which the so-called CHRISTIANS abolish. They live under deception and they know not much about whom they claim to follow. LET ME NOT SOUND LIKE A FOOLISH PERSON; I GO TO CHURCH but things are not in order.. Instead of seeing our cause of banishment (so that we can make it right); they rob us of our money and only see for us curses.
The MINISTERS of God do preach against OMENALA and say that it is evil. Wicked people are against OMENALA. Prostitutes are against OMENALA. EVERYONE IS AGAINST OMENALA. Witches and Wizards in IGBOLAND are against OMENALA. WHY? BECAUSE IT KILLS. THIS IS THE LAW OF RIGHTEOUSNESS built in CULTURE (for the worship of the only TRUE GOD). OMENALA KILLS THOSE WHO ARE EVILDOERS. THEY are afraid of OMENALA because once initiated they must be exposed. OMENALA HAD NEVER KILLED ANYONE THAT IS UPRIGHT. Even when people think that you upright but you are not ‘YOU MUST PAY FOR YOUR SINS’. With OMENALA you dare not COMMIT EVIL (whether in secret or in public place) because it must strike you. What do they preach in churches? You can sin as many times as possible, and after that just say ‘God I am sorry’ and your sins will be forgiven. PEOPLE WORSHIP WHAT THEY KNOW NOT. This makes people less afraid of GOD (THE MOST HIGHEST CREATOR WHO MADE MAN AND HIS ANCIENT PEOPLE). LET US COUNT OUR TEETH WITH OUR TONGUE.

bro I know how you feel. But that's how He wants it and no one can question Him. Look at it yourself when you buy a car. You will choose the person you want to enter your car, the one's you want to drive it. You have power to direct the use of that car. So, no one will come to you and say why are you doing the car like that. Likewise God has power over His creation. So you can not question Him. Our problem is that we want things in our own way, we are not ready to follow His guidelines, that is why many will end up in hell fire. Just humble yourself before Him and stop thinking that you cannot make it to heaven. With man it is impossible but with God, all things are possible.
The funny thing is many people(Gods) claim to own the car

Culture › Re: Why Did The Bantu's Migrate From Eastern Nigeria To Central And Southern Africa? by macof(m): 11:46pm On Oct 12, 2014
shymexx:
I know there are still some bantu's in Nigeria, however, the bantu migration/expansion started with the arrival of the stronger Nilotic and Cushitic people in West Africa around 2000BC to 1000BC. Hence why they decided to move towards areas dominated by the weaker Pygmies.

You can add yours if you have any intelligent post to contribute...trolls, please stay away from this thread.
shymexx:
The Ijaws, Tivs, Igbo's, Ibibios and Cross River are pro-bantu.

And all the other tribes in present day West Africa are Chadic, Nilotic and Cushitic tribes - they all migrated from Northern Africa and the Nile region. The Bamileke's of Cameroun also belong to this group.

This isn't about linguistics - it's about DNA.

Let the E1b1a and E-V38 haplogroup explain further.
Wats this rubbish?! Where did u ever hear nilotic and chadic people dominate West Africa? Because Hausa and kanuri are considered chadic/nilotic doesn't make West Africa dominated by such classifications
