Mintayo: ur last statement is not true,satan,d serpent made adam and eve to disobey God.

cocoduck: You are already confused,you know nothing in the bible and you are so narrow minded.if you say that elijah simply went to heaven then you don't even know anything about the bible. Look google is ur friend. the so called book of enoch has nothing to do with biblical knowledge

Mintayo: Lolz,i think your question shld be forwarded to alfa althez and judas, and advocate666,they wil tell you he exists and he is their master!

andy24: Repent before it is too late.

Joagbaje: If Satan repents , God will forgive him. But their are 2 problems. Satan like other angels are not created in the image of God like us. They dont have ability to repent. Secondly Satan is personally proud. He can't repent. He is still mobilising his army for the great battle of Gog and Magog. And Armageddon . He still believes he will defeat God one day. He Looks down on Gods authority. So he cant even think of failing his followers by repenting.

frosbel: Satan was a covering cherub , one of the highest ranks of an angel in Heaven.

He saw GOD face to face,  he was HOLY and Righteous and wonderfully made.

But he rebelled against a greater LIGHT , after seeing GOD for what he is , merciful , loving and just .

He also led a myriad of angels in rebellion against GOD , so this was a mass revolt led by the ingrate called SATAN.

Continuing, , he instigated the first murder in the human world and has been behind some of the most savage and brutal ideologies and regimes in human history.

He has been judged and once a sentence has been given it must be carried out.

All those who ally themselves with Satan will also share in his DOOM.

"For God did not spare even the angels who sinned. He threw them into hell, in gloomy pits of darkness, where they are being held until the day of judgement."- 2 Peter 2 :4

Ajibam: outsmart?
he is already a defeated fellow..my charges christ has as already d e'er defeated him...

cocoduck: You are a funny boy. Which one is the book of enoch. you don't even know anything thing in the bible. fyi elijah did not go to space, HE was taken to another part of the earth to stop his enemies from getting hold of him 2nd chronicles he wrote a letter from wherever was living to elisha. the bible say that only a fool Says there is No God. you want to tell me that all the scientists that are Christians aRe fake.

lightwalk: @Poster: I hope you're sane
You are only confirming that Lucifer is the devil, if you call him lightbearer that one na ur own palava. Maybe they are decieving in you in one occult like that. He is just the devil because he disobeyed God and also caused man to disobey God too.

ttalks: Stop being so predictable and go and read the bible very well.
Lucifer is not Satan.

Lucifer is a latin word that should not have been placed in the KJV bible since it(Old testament) was written in Hebrew.
It is not the name of anybody or personality.
It(son of the morning) was only used to refer the King of Babylon and never Satan.

Check other bible versions and u will not find the word Lucifer in that position but rather the true/proper word(s).

It was the king of Babylon who thought he could exalt his throne to the heavens; not Satan.

The point in all this is to let people know that satan was never a pure and beautiful angel from the beginning as is popularly taught, but an evil being from the very beginning.
He was created so by God for the purpose which he has been fulfilling and still is fulfilling.

John 8:44
(44) Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

striktlymi: Goes to show that my meaning of hell and yours aint the same.

striktlymi: Yes, if my meaning of Hell is the same as yours.



Yes, if my meaning of Hell is the same as yours.



Yes, for 'Christians'.

striktlymi: Quite on the contrary, my post addressed your questions.


The first is dependent on what you call hell. If you and I have the same meaning for hell then all who did good before Christ experienced hell, though temporarily. This addresses your first question.

The second states that good works are necessary to attain salvation, even tough it would need to be made whole by Christ's sacrifice. This addresses your second question.

truthman2012: Firstly, I want to use this opportunity to inform your brother, tintingz on his post on "The Bible Proves Muhammad As A False Prophet" which was closed by the mod. It was about Jesus being tempted by Satan. In case he is following this thread of yours, please let him open a thread so that we can discuss it. Thanks.

On your questions, I have the following answers.

Question one
What language did the serpent speak to Eve?

Eve was a human who must be speaking a language. The same language the Serpent must have used to communicate with her. I will answer your question here with another one: what language was Eve speaking? I'm sure Eve is mentioned in your quran too.

Question two
It seems the serpent was to start moving on its belly as we truly have it today after the curse,telling us that it was not its belly before.So what was it using to move before the curse?

This is an obvious case. The fact that the Bible says it was cursed to move on its belly shows it was moving on its legs before.

Question three
I have been to the Zoological Garden and I never found any species of serpent/snake feeding on dust.If anyone has a snake that feeds on dust as claimed by the bible should please tell us the species of that snake.
No insults please.

There is no way you can be so sure that snake does not feed on dust for the few hours you spent in the Zoo. You know Zoo is under management by people. They feed the animals therein. If it was not hungry it would not eat anything. Or what was it eating when you were there?

Satan As Snake

Revelation 20:2
And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan , and bound him a thousand years,

The old serpent is referring to the one that deceived Adam and Eve. So it was Satan that was cursed.

Spirits do assume human and animal forms at will. They have that power. Even in Africa, witches assume or put on animal forms, bird, goat, cat etc. At that time in question, Satan decided to assume the form of a serpent.

I cannot find anything difficult in the questions you have raised.

striktlymi: 1) It depends on what you refer to as hell. Personally I believe the true pain of hell is the loss associated with not being able to be in God's presence. The human spirit (soul if you like) yearns to be re-united with its maker (whether we recognize it or not). It derives its joy and peace from God. To be barnished from the one who holds the key to the joy of the soul is devastating in itself. Hence, anyone who was deprived the beatific vision (whether temporarily or for all eternity) can be said to have experienced some of the pangs of hell.

2) I believe firmly that belief in Christ is the same thing as doing good. Anyone who claims to be Christian and refuses to do good, is getting himself prepared to be cut off from Christ on the last day. Hence, no one can make heaven without doing good.

Abdul Fattah: Not true.
Please do not confuse the mentioned monotheistic religions with Pantheism.

striktlymi: Um...before I answer your question, I need to address the bold. Good works without the sacrifice of Christ cannot merit anyone heaven. This is the reason why those who did good prior to the coming of Christ were not admitted into heaven, as Christ himself confirms:

John 3:13
King James Version (KJV)

13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

Christ won for us the right to heaven, as his sacrifice on the cross destroyed the barrier the sin of Adam placed between us and our Father in heaven. For everyone was born into sin:

Psalm 51:5
King James Version (KJV)
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Now to your question...Preaching the good news does not save the world. Christ has already saved it by his sacrifice. Our preaching is to let everyone know about this saving work of Ch

battery low...

victorv12: Science and Religion are just two sides of the same coin. One prefers to use its head while the other relies on tales.

ifeness: The bible claimed Adam heard the footsteps of 'god' in the garden of Eden. That is enough evidence that god was flesh and blood.

vislabraye: Science and Christianity are not mutually exclusive. They both work hand in hand. Its the same Bible that said the earth is a sphere ( read Isaiah 40). After many years, everyone now believed it.
When Kepler said the earth is a sphere, the early church attacked him. In those days, scientists were attacked by the church. And that's how they formed the illuminati.
But today, we know better.
Btw, Isaac Newton was a christian.

jmoore: God is love.
In the beginning was the word(John chapter 1). Jesus is God.

bernonpoint: In summary: Since the beginning of time, Christianity has been called upon to fill in the blank space that science cannot provide and no matter how science thrive there will still be some nagging questions which only religion can provide answers.

Donmichaelz: Science says- Evolution
Christianity say- GOD

Science say-Mother nature
Christianity-Father God

Science say-Homo erectus
Christianity-Human

Science say-NUK
Christianity-Nope

Science say-NAIRALAND
Christianity say- read Bible its more profitable

Science is a branch of
Christianity that was separated by an Idiiot who fail to give the creator credit for his Creation
