How do you think humans continue to live and function if God doesn't reside in them and with them?

The fact that God created human means God has a part of himself in humans, and that's the subconsciousnwss/conscience.

Haven't you read that God created man in his IMAGE and LIKENESS?; That means humans are like God and this can only be if humans have a part of God in them.

This means God fellowships with humans. The extent of our personal experience of that fellowship depends on how much attention we pay to HIS presence in our lives.

i beg to differ- God created animals and plants too are you saying that there is a part of God inside animals too?

Does God fellowship with animals too?

There is no such thing as HIS presence in human lives this is just what religion mostly modern Christianity has taught a lot of us.

Now walk with me - say a baby was born in a society where there are no Christians, he never ever came across the bible one day in his life till he grows old and die...are you saying that God allowed that person to live through his days on earth without enjoying "His fellowship"- is God not being unfair to that person?

Now you said "God made man in His image"- that statement alone is the biggest lie in the history of mankind- it does not make sense based even on the account of bible's description of God- God has no physical form so what image are we talking about.

God is an omnipotent being whom we can not even describe with a form just based on how great and powerful he is- yet we human because we are always trying to be self important we think we are the ones he made in his image?

Not angels, who according to the bible look somewhat like us except bigger and more powerful with wings but you will never ever hear them say they were made in the image of God- why? because they know better- they have beheld HIS presence they know that nothing no being should even liken themselves to HIM(GOD)...God! God that is more that a thousand suns put together you cannot even behold his face...You people are here saying you are made in his image- HOW?

Spiritual image or physical image because on both accounts still makes no sense.

And of course who wrote the bible- humans...what were you expecting

Everything about religion is just humans glorifying themselves while pretending to give glory to God.



Tell me right now- think about it deeply
What is God's purpose right now- what do you think God is doing right now?

Watching humans right? Because if we were meant to follow bible's teachings that's exactly what he is doing....seated on the throne and all his attention focused solely on earth...God ooo a whole God creator of all the universe of everything we can and cannot see yet the only thing we believe he has to do in his life till eternity is to watch us......we are just ego tripping. It

olabrad:
And ca you tell me the power behind human subconsciousness?!

once again I am not disputing that humans were created by God..God created all things but he does not reside in your mind, he doesn't fellowship with you..he is not your subconscise he gave you a subconsciousness as a guide..for instance when you buy a new phone there is instruction manual on how best to use the phone..the makers wrote those things as best practice right...but the makers are not inside the manual.

So that is how your subconscious work..that is God's manual on how to live and how to act with people around you...if you choose to follow it all well and good if you choose to do as you please that is still your business..He has finished with us(humans) and moved on to other things...there are thousands of planets in the galaxies and He and his angels are expanding and creating more beings.

But because of our main character syndrome we feel- No nah God has nothing else more important to do than to follow us up and down and be discussing with us in our mind.- we are so important that God and devil are fighting over our souls🤣🤣.


God...God ooo, the maker of all the universe..what Christians are basically saying is God after making all the planets and all the universe he decided no leave them uninhabitable, close shop and every making any other life form again and focus all of eternity on humans...Do you see how self important we actually feel and think.

olabrad:
We aren't talking religion here. We are talking relationship with God. They are two different things.

Many of those who think they know actually know nothing!

There is no relationship with God…no human has relationship or has ever had relationship with God….That thing you call God talking to you is your subconscious reasoning.

kwubisjubis:
At times I wonder the level of some people's myopic understanding of God: If Younghoon who is the only human with the highest IQ on Earth can boldly and publicly declare the existence of God and Elon Musk can unashamedly declare his faith in God, then, some of us who do not know how atomic reactions can take place are here making noise on their level of education; that they have read all, known all, and therefore, those who believe in God are just naive.

Well the issue is not with me write up it’s with how you chose to understand it…I never at any point insinuated that there is no God, what I have issue with is religion’s interpretation of God and his supposed duties to humans.

IDERAWOLE:
Interestingly you've not told what you believe? I know you can't dodge that. Whatever it is tell us.

Every human being is an embodiment of what he or she believes.

Even your posturings here is a belief, so what name is it called and who are your followers or leaders.

I'm sure when you face a threat to your existence right now, we won't need to force you, you'll shout the name of whoever or whatever you believe.

Oh but I never said I do not believe in God…I just do not believe in religion and their representation of God.

Damilola0147:
Sorry for you. Your case is like that of a child who doesn’t know his father but believes that you don’t have to have a father to be born .

this makes no sense and does not relate to what I said…read carefully I never said there is No God

To think that Man U is currently having a better season than both Liverpool and Chelsea(in the EPL) is funny cos two some months back it looked destined to be one of if not United's worse season in top flight football.

Agbaneson:
Sir, with due respect, I would appreciate it if you could clarify your position more explicitly. Your statement is not entirely clear to me, and I would like to understand the exact point you are making.
Are you arguing that God does not exist? Or are you critiquing religious organisations for their doctrinal claims — specifically the belief that human beings are created in the image of God, and that God manifested in human form and died for humanity’s salvation?
It would be helpful if you could clearly distinguish whether your concern is theological (about the nature or existence of God), institutional (about religious organisations and their teachings), or philosophical (about the logical consistency of these beliefs).
Kindly state your position directly so that the discussion can proceed on a clear and rational basis.

Well first I think/believe that God exist- I do not accept that something as magnificent as our universe just got here by accident- nothing so beautiful could have been from an accident.

What I do not agree with is the religious books account of creation, God,Heaven, Hell, Angels, or Gods purpose...If you look at it critically all they did is make man(humans) the center of everything. It seems as though all God did and all he is ever doing is make humans happy?
He created the earth for humans
Angels as bodyguard and messengers for humans
Heaven a place for humans to go and enjoy
Hell a place for bad humans
He needs to be worshipped to bad by humans that he would kill anyone that doesn't
He still sent his own son,his own son o to come and die by the hands of this same humans just for humans to be saved and enter a place he designed with everything you could ever imagine.


Do you see what I am saying- we have succeeded in painting God as a super natural beings who has nothing else going on in his life apart from humans....God oo the same God that created the whole universe.

Blakjewelry:

Religion is man's poor attempt in explaining the world around him and also help him explain morality and laws.

BTW nowadays I find it funny when they said Jesus came to save the world out love lol, let's belive the story for a moment, now who wouldn't have take the offer knowing that you will be brought back to life and be given power, authorities and position that is above everyone?

You are wise...very very wise

davidque:
I know right, these things seem like foolishness to the simpleton.......Except the Holy Spirit opens the eyes of your understanding you will continue in this your folly thinking you are thinking critically

That is another way of saying i know i am not making sense but i believe a higher power is speaking through me therefore i am making sense🤣🤣

God made man a little lower than the angels.

Let that sink in.

yet it is man that he sends his only begotten son to die for after man sin repeatedly? Why did he send his son to die for angels?

Kobojunkie:
1. You mean this, of all religions, and over 1 million deities worshipped across all religions, right? 🥱🥱

2. Which God made which man in his own image? Try to be at least specific, so you don't confuse yourself about these things. 😫😫😫

3. You have never really read any religious book out there, have you? As someone who has read a few, I can't say the same of even the few that I have. 🥱🥱

Religion does not interest me that much I think you can deduce that from my respond to the original post...Hence I do not care to read many religious books, I only speak based on the ones I have read or better still the religions I have been able to study(based on what and people around me) I have not been to Asia so I know nothing about their Buddha or shiva or whatever...But the two most popular religions (around me) are based on similar ideologies...There is a supreme being who is the maker of everything we can see and cannot see

He made man and gave man dominion over all things

That ideology is what I think is just humans feeling self important.

My stand is any religion that tells you or makes you somehow believe that God created the whole earth and after that he has nothing else to do other than to listen to humans whining(prayers),praises and punish those who refuse to do this or that is just rubbish..because clearly what they are telling you is that humans are so important that God spends every minute of his life doting on us..which makes no sense.

LoL.
Child.
I am not a car dealer.
I am actually on this thread because I am interested in buying the car.
Only an ignorant person will call the car "stupid" like you did.

Just like the child you are, you ignorantly and arrogantly assume the car was stupid.
Now you are also assuming I am a car dealer because I corrected you.
Owning a Sienna doesn't mean you know cars. If you know cars you won't call a Toyota Buffalo a "stupid" car.
Have you noticed the resemblance between this car and the latest Toyota Prado? Well the Latest Toyota Prado got it's design from the Toyota Land Cruiser Buffalo, that is how much respect the buffalo commands, so my boy, that you own a Sienna doesn't mean you know cars.
You know nothing about cars, next time you see a car you know nothing about, you close your mouth go and read up on the car before you begin to demonize and rubbish the car....

I bought my very first car at age 19 in my 200 level. I started driving at age 13.... Most of my friends call me for advice no matter the part of the globe I am for auto advice.
Your knowledge of cars is no knowledge at all...
Only an Ediat will say a Toyota Land Cruiser Buffalo is a stupid car

😂😂😂😂Good lord so I have been wasting my time exchanging words with a teenager? The most painful part is I honestly thought I was talking to an adult..but let me give you this one lesson cos it seems your father didn't teach you.."be humble, be respectful- you should never resolve to insulting people online just because they do not have the same taste as you- that's gutter behaviour"

P.S- Be good to people, use kind words, because even a billion dollars doesn't change the fact that a terrible person is still a terrible person...Shalom

Congratulations to you and the brother...I just hope you both know that you are decieving yourselves.

One thing I hope anyone who reads this understand is that every religion on earth every single one of them is born out of man's deep desire to glorify himself...religion is about making humans the main character while pretending to be weak and vulnerable...think about it

Why did God make man in him image- because man had to stroke his ego

God made super natural beings(angels) and basically turned them to bouncers and messengers for man


God came down from heaven to die because mankind is so so important ...mtcheeew


Every religious book is just we humans glorifying ourselves and how very important we are whilst pretending to be nothing.

Ask yourself what is God's current job- protecting and blessing humans😂😂😂🤣

As much as I do not belief this rubbish cock and bullying story..I will however mention one thing- every religion on earth every single one of them is born out of man's deep desire to glorify himself...religion is about making humans the main character while pretending to be weak and vulnerable...think about it

Why did God make man in him image- because man had to stroke his ego

God made super natural beings(angels) and basically turned them to bouncers and messengers for man

Not like you had a choice na....He is Yoruba and rich he is not going to stop at just you and tonto..so keep that approval stamp handy you are going to approve many more like that in the nearest future.

What exactly is Donald Trump's end game? To make America like Argentina where there are no people of colour?

yes but still top

Arsenal is still top of the table..

Exousiang01:
Young man you said the car was "stupid" those were your exact words?
Do you have problem with your vocabulary too?

You could have looked at the car a walked away without trying to demarket the dealers product.
So you knew the purpose of the car yet you came asking "what is this?"
Your this children of these days talking before thinking.
Next time don't go about insulting other people's goods just because you feel like talking.

You are exhausting🤦..so this is my last response to you..Your car is the best looking car in the world- happy!
You are just a dealer not the owner of the brand, I do not understand why you are so emotional about a comment on the appearance of the car....everyone else who has entered the thread has made similar remark about the vehicle..it is a fucking ugly vehicle with outdated interior...we are not disputing the fact that it is worth millions because obviously it is built for more than just it's looks..but is an ugly looking vehicle period...if you cannot see that then something is clouding your judgement and stop attacking anyone that doesn't see the car the way you see it.

P.s even if you are the biggest car dealer on earth and you are worth tens of billions of dollars you still have some growing up to do....Shalom KO

Chelsea has nothing absolutely nothing they are fighting for right now...they are not in the title race, they don't seem interested in the top 4 race...wtf mehnn

Exousiang01:
You also could have expressed yourself with verbally devaluing the dealers market.
You knew nothing about the car yet you chose to rubbish the car.
What you got was same shit different toilets

I said the car looks ugly...let's be honest the car is not fine...it is rugged,durable, powerful but beauty is not what anyone will buy it for...I think that is just simple truth, amd I don't think thr makers made it with beauty as the major selling point...it's the same with most of these rugged off road vehicles including the GWagon, the jeep wrangler and so on, they are performance vehicles so beauty is not the first consideration for the markers and buyers.

Plus I am pretty sure I know more about cars than you think giving that I currently drive a Toyota sienna

He put the economy in a worse shape than it was and it’s rebounding? How, where? He’s struggling to get the economy closer to how bad it was before he took over and he gets credit?

Even if the economy gets back to 2023 levels that Buhari left it, it’s still very poor. It’s like abductors returning their victim after 10 years of captivity and expecting credit?

I know you just want to be polite to him so you won’t be attacked and labeled by Tinubu supporters. It’s called Stockholm Syndrome

If this isn’t Stockholm syndrome, explain to me what part of the country has become better than he met it since he came to office. Is it education? Perhaps, access to education with student loans that they have to pay back with zero jobs, but not education quality. Is it security, or job creation, or economy, or inflation? What exactly?

I am naturally a polite person, I have always believed that I can talk sense into people with being harsh and demeaning...it's just my way of life and I don't see that changing anytime soon...Plus the man has like 1 and half things he has at least done better than the previous guy

The rising level of insecurity and the seemingly unwillingness and unperturbed attitude of our leaders and security forces is why I will continue to criticise this administration...There is nothing more precious than life and the life of people in Aso rock should not be more valuable than the common man in jigawa or Kano or ondo or anywhere else in the country.

Seems the only way Nigerians can achieve great things is moving far away from Nigeria...I don't mean this as a joke or to troll just to highlight how terribly hindering the structure and system of government and lifestyle we operate is usually and the next generation.

Honestly this war has dragged on for so long I think the purpose is defeated now...even if Putin wins now at what cost and if EU keeps giving Ukraine loans they might have to recolonize Africa again else they risk becoming a third world continent.

Any sexual immorality they accuse a Nigerian paster of committing there is always 95% chance turns out to be true...Those pastor's are the weapon fashioned against Christianity in Nigeria

If I talk you guys will think i'm trolling- but is ADC actually a party? Like they are serious honestly I thought they were just some set of online troll especially given that their name is just a change in middle letter from the ruling party

ryloy:
No President that has been more prepared and actually delivered like President Bola Tinubu in the history of Nigeria . President Bola Tinubu leadership prowess shows that Governance is not rocket 🚀 science 🔭. Hence the numerous achievements in 2½ years on infrastructures, Energy, Education, Security and Economy etc

Numerous achievements? I mean I don't think the man is the devil obideints make him out to be but numerous achievements? Nigeria doesn't look like a country with one tangible achievement let alone numerous...security is currently very very very poor that I think is my biggest issue with this regime, energy(if you mean electricity which I think you do) it has been poor too as a matter of fact youths are planning a protest come Monday at BEDC head quarters in Benin city, similar complains from across the nation, he has tried with education i believe, not excellent but tried, the economy seems to be awakening from its comatose state.

Has he been great- No absolutely not
But I think somewhat better than the previous guy, that one had no vision at all

90% of Nigerians who claim to be trading Forex are doing yahoo

Those stupid ads you see from iq option with that guy on braids going to buy expensive electronics and then trading, and making profit to pay is hogwash

You are going to blow your first three accounts there is no doubt about it..it might take days,weeks or even minutes if you are impatient

You are not going to make enough money to buy a car if you do not start trading(deposit) with at least enough money to buy a bike

Forex will drive you crazy

Forex is no different from sport betting? Forex just has better branding and packaging

Bro I have a lot to say about house agents...especially the ones in Benin city

Oh there is election going on in Abuja today? Not that I care honestly
