[quote author=Weah96 post=30375394]Almost everything you posted here is a lie or a straw man. When I think of gender inequality in Islam, the number of wives doesn't cross my mind. Your pig story is also a lie. There are several medicines that kill tapeworms. Why are you posting lies in favor of your religion?

What lies? Stop been ignorant my brother, a thousand scientist have proved this, so because there are several medicines that kill tape worm does that give you the go ahead to eat pig? please research first before u come out to talk. PLEASE TELL US HOW CAN U REPAIR THE DAMAGE DONE BY TAPE WORM.
What inequality are you talking of?

eyeopener:
He (Jesus) said: Surely I am a servant of Allah; He has given me the BOOK and made me a Prophet (Surah 19:30 Shakir).

He (Jesus) spake: Lo! I am the slave of Allah, He hath given me the SCRIPTURE and hath appointed me a Prophet (Surah 19:30 Pickthall).

If the Gospel was not written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, John etc, who wrote the one Allah talks about and where can we find it?
Yes Allah said he gave Jesus a book, and you are a witness to that, because in the bible you have now it was reported in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John that Jesus went to places and he preached the gospel. So you see that gospel he preached at that time, was it the gospel of Matthew, Mark Luke and John? NO. Because at all of this came decades after he left. So that he preached is what Allah gave him.
as for where you can get it, that should not my business. Because we have the last testament compiling all we need to eternity.

malvisguy212: according to you guys, the bible is corrupt, so you mean a corrupt book authenticate islam,? Very confused muslims. The more you prove your point with the bible the more you guys make allah weaker.

Allah say he will protect his word,right? And you guys say some part of the bible is authentic,[that is the part that favour islam] now if the bible is corrupt, dos that mean Allah fail to protect his word? You guys are a big disappointment to Allah.
You did not read the quran correctly, Allah told us that he gave the messengers his revelation but with the pass of time your Rabbis and theologians change it to suit their self desires and because he knows that he will send the seal of prophet Mohammad (saw) with the last testament which no one can temper or fault and we can see and prove it that in your bible there are traces of word of God, word of the prophets and words of Historians. e.g

1. Word of God, in the book of Isaiah you will read ... I AM GOD AND BESIDE ME THERE IS NO ONE ELSE. Know when you look at the sentence it was said by through the mouth piece of Isaiah but he was not claiming to be God, therefore you can see that it is in fact the word of God.

2. Word of the Prophets, in the new testament you will read Jesus saying ... IT HAS BEEN SAID OF THE OLD TIMES AN EYE FOR AN EYE AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH BUT[b] I [/b]SAY UNTO YOU...

3. Word of the Historians, in so many place e.g Matthew 9:9 WHILE JESUS WAS WALKING ON THE WAY HE [/b]SAW A MAN SITTING AT THE TAX COLLECTORS OFFICE SO [b]HE (Jesus) SAID TO HIM (Matthew) FOLLOW ME AND HE (Matthew) FOLLOWED HIM. Please who is narrating the story, you say it is written by Matthew but you dont need to have a Bsc in English before you know that this is not the words of Matthew, not the word of Jesus nor God. If it was Matthew that wrote it it would have been WHILE JESUS WAS WALKING ON THE WAY HE SAW ME SITTING AT THE TAX COLLECTORS OFFICE AND HE TOLD ME TO FOLLOW HIM AND I FOLLOWED HIM, or if it was Jesus it would have been AS I WAS WALKING ON THE WAY I SAW A MAN AND I TOLD HIM TO FOLLOW ME AND HE FOLLOWED ME. Any primary school child will tell you that this is a third person speech from hear say narrating the story.

Sovet: True, God blessed Ishmael because he was the seed of Abraham but had no covenant of prophethood with him. His covenant was with Isaac. Both the bible and quran confirm it (Gen. 17:19-21, Quran 29:27). God could not have sent a prophet through Ishmael seed, i.e Muhammad.
Why wont it be through Ishmael, when God promised Abraham that i will bless your only seed, it has to be Ishmael because for good 13 years Ishmael was the only son of Abraham.

Who are you trying to convince? No Christians will take your twistings and additions to the bible seriously.
Islam cannot stand without reference to the bible. No Christian talks about Christianity referring to the quran.
The quran is sufficient for us, but we try to prove to you from what you have in your hands and believe that even your books authenticate ISLAM.

onetrack: Pigs are no dirtier than chickens. And if you look at a list of the nations with the longest life expectancies, you will see that almost all of the top 20 countries are those whose cultures traditionally eat pork. So what is your point?
Scientist today have comfirm that there are about 70 dieseases associated with pig, and it was not found in chicken, so there long life expectancies is not because of the pig they eat, probably because of the good use of herbs within their nation.

Christianity EtcSome Common Misconceptions About Islam by mahdino(op): 10:59pm On Jan 02, 2014
Misconception # 1: It is not civilized to have more than one wife at a time.

Reply: The only religious book that says: "... then marry only once" is the Quran, the holy book of the Muslims. This injunction is not found in the Christian Bible in the Hindu Geeta, or in the Jewish holy book etc. In the Bible there are so many references to various prophets and kings who had numerous wives. Abraham had three wives, while King Solomon had seven hundred wives, etc. In the Hindu literature the various gods have hundreds of wives. Krishna had one thousand women and concubines. Similarly, the Jews used to marry more than once, till as late as the 1950s. None of these faiths regulated the number of wives a man could have at a time. Only Islam limits the wives to four.

The monogamy that the Christians, the Hindus, and Jews practice today, is not from their religion, but from their government. So the issue of monogamy has no religious significance; it is a man-made rule. Monogamy was the result of an act of parliament, not their faith. Example: The Indian Parliament in 1954 passed the Hindu Marriage Act prohibiting the Hindu male from taking up more than one wife. The Jewish Rabbis in the 10th Century AD made monogamy a rule, although it was not enforced till as late as the 1950s. Similarly, the European countries and the American government passed laws to make monogamy the rule in their lands some time ago. Mormons still marry more than once.

In Surah Nissah God allows a Muslim to marry, one, two, three or four women as long as he can do justice between them. If the man can't do justice, the exhortation for him is: "... then marry only once".

Marrying more than once is not compulsory, but only an option to tide over unique circumstances that societies face from time to time. You will find in many societies today that the ratio between females and males is not 50:50. There are more females than males in Europe, USA and elsewhere. On the other hand, in India, because of the rampant female fetus abortions, the number of females is dropping, and a crisis is in the making, as not enough number of females will be available for Hindu men to marry a few years from now.

The option for women in countries with a bigger female ratio than male is to share a husband with another women, to remain single, or to become public property. "Become public property" is a decent phrase I'm using for what it really means. Ask any woman who cannot find an unmarried man to marry, if it is a better choice to share a husband with another woman, to remain single, or to become a mere mistress. As a lawfully wedded wife she will get the same right as the first wife, get legal status for herself and her children, get inheritance rights for herself and her children, and most importantly, get respect and dignity. Becoming a mistress is no choice. In the West becoming a mistress or a girlfriend is no problem, but becoming a second wife is totally unacceptable. The government will come after you, the society will come after you...

Misconception # 2: There is no equality between genders in Islam, as Islam gives men the right to have more than one wife, but does it not give the same right to women to have more than one husband.

Reply: Islam does not approve of polyandry, i.e., a woman taking up more than one husband. It is the male whose children the women bear. If a woman had multiple husbands, it would not be easy to know who is the biological father of the child. When a child is conceived, God puts love and affection in the hearts of the parents so that they can bring up the child. Without this love, life cannot be sustained. But if there was dispute about who really has fathered the child, there would be no love in the heart of the fathers. Psychologists say that children who grow up without knowing who their father is, are lacking in stability and maturity. These days because of scientific progress in DNA testing, one can say who the father is; but these tests were not available for mankind till now. Islam has historically provided for peace and stability in the family, not discord.

Misconception # 3: Islam subjugates women in a veil.

Reply: If you look at history, to ancient civilizations, you will find that women were the oppressed people. They had no individual merit. The Babylonians used to punish the woman for her husband's mistakes. The ancient Egyptians did the same. Ancient Arabs buried their newly born daughters.

It was Islam that uplifted the status of women. It gave women rights they never had before. Surah Nissah exhorts believing men to lower their gaze if a lady is passing by. Similarly, there are exhortations for women to lower their gaze if strange men are around. The Quran also speaks about the hijab for men and women to protect the modesty. The hijab for men is to cover their bodies minimally from their navel to the knees. The hijab for women is to cover their whole bodies except for their faces and hands below their wrists. There are descriptions for a female hijab, that it should cover the endowments including head, not be tight, not be transparent, not be like the clothes of non-believers, and not be like the clothes of the other gender, etc. Women got the right to own, inherit property, and to dispose it of at will.

Let me ask you a question: Suppose two identical twin sisters are walking down a street, and one of them is dressed in revealing clothing, while the other one is wearing a hijab. Who will be boys in the street whistle at or tease: the one who is scantily dressed in a mini-skirt, or the one who is modestly attired? The answer is obvious. The hijab is designed to prevent women from being molested. It brings peace to society and prevents mischief.

Misconception # 4: Capital punishment is barbaric.

Reply: There are crimes for which Islam prescribes capital punishment, e.g. for rape, murder etc. This is to protect society from criminals and anti-social elements. In USA there are 2713 rapes taking place every day. In Islam, the penalty is to award the death penalty so that the criminal is not around to repeat this crime, and to teach others a lesson. Americans say that this is a severe punishment. They say that the rapist must be put in jail for the first rape. If after his release he rapes again, then it is ok to put him to death. Friends, statistics in USA show that 95 percent of the rapists, after release from jail, rape again. Islam prevents this second rape. Following the Hijab dress code prevents the rapist from temptation to rape.

Misconception # 5: Islam was spread by the sword.

Reply: Nothing is far from the truth. It was the Islamic traders who served as excellent role models in the spread of Islam. In the book: "Islam at crossroads", the author, on page 8, says that this belief is a myth. Look at the number of Coptic Christians in Egypt. They number 14 million. Couldn't the Arabs have wiped them out or forcefully converted them to Islam? Look at India. In the 1,0000 years that the Muslims ruled over this subcontinent, every one could have been forcefully converted to Islam. How can you explain that there are 800 million Hindus and others still in India? Which Muslim army went to Indonesia and Malaysia to convert them? These people converted by seeing the good behaviors of the Muslim/Arab traders. Readers' Digest says that between 1944 and 1984, a period of 50 years, saw more conversion to Islam in Europe and USA than to any faith. I am asking you, who went with a sword to convert these people to Islam? It is the sword of the intellect that converts people.

Misconception # 6: Muslims are fundamentalists.

Reply: What is the definition of the word fundamentalist? The dictionary says anyone who understands the basics of a discipline is a fundamentalist. Can you call yourself a mathematician if you can't understand the fundamentals of mathematics? No! Similarly, to be called a scientist, you must understand the fundamentals of science. There can be a positive fundamentalist and a negative fundamentalist. A thief/robber who is an expert at the fundamentals of robbing is bad; but a doctor who knows the fundamentals of healing is good. I submit that no fundamentals of Islam are against humanity. How can you be a good Muslim if you do not understand the fundamentals of Islam? How can you practice Islam? According to the Webster's dictionary, the word fundamentalist was first used on Christians; however, the new Oxford dictionary lists Muslims as fundamentalists.

Every Muslim should understand the fundamentals of Islam, and should be a fundamentalist. I am proud to call myself a 'Muslim Fundamentalist'. I submit that every Muslim should be a terrorist. Just as the policeman strikes terror in the heart of the thief, so should every Muslim strike terror in the heart of the thief, the rapist and other anti-social elements!

The word fundamentalist is open to wide interpretation, just like the word freedom fighter. In olden days, the British would label those Indians fighting for India's freedom as terrorists; while for the Indians, these were freedom fighters.

Misconception # 7: Muslims are ruthless non-vegetarian people.

Reply: God has granted Muslims the choice to be vegetarians as well as non-vegetarians. He has ordained in the holy book that everything that he has created in this world is for the enjoyment/pleasure of man (with certain restrictions and limits). It is ok for a Muslim to be a vegetarian by choice; it is also ok for him to be a non-vegetarian by choice.

Science tells us that animal flesh is a complete protein food. It is easier to digest than the vegetarian food. If you look at the teeth of carnivorous animals like a tiger or a lion they are sharp and pointed, designed to tear flesh. The tiger and lion can eat only flesh; they cannot digest leaves and grass. On the other hand, the teeth of herbivorous animals like the cow and camel are flat. Designed to chew grass and leaves. These herbivorous animals can't digest flesh. But if you examine the teeth of human beings, they are both canine i.e. sharp and pointed, as well as flat. Therefore human beings can chew both vegetarian foods as well as non-vegetarian foods. Humans can digest plant foods as well as flesh. This ability to enjoy and digest both vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian food is a gift of God to humans.

Hindu scriptures permit the eating of flesh. In fact, their books are replete with incidents showing festivals and ceremonies where meat was served. When Jainism and Buddhism started to become popular with their philosophies of ahimsa, i.e., non-violence towards animals, and started to win converts from Hindus, the Hindus priests adapted the same philosophy of ahimsa to win back those who had left the Hindu fold. This is how Hinduism changed over to vegetarianism.

If no one eats meat the number of cattle will be uncontrollable. It will be a big problem about how to dispose of them.

Misconception # 8: Muslims eat animals and behave like animals.

Reply: There is a saying that you are what you eat. Muslims eat only herbivorous animals (animals that eat only plants, grass, leaves etc). These animals are peaceful animals, like goat, lamb etc. Therefore, we are peaceful people. Muslims are prevented from eating carnivorous animals, i.e. animals that eat other animals. The holy prophet has prohibited us from eating snakes, lizards, cats, dogs, birds of prey etc.

Some non-Muslims say that allowing slaughtered animals to bleed to death is torturing the animals. It is better to behead them in one quick shot on the neck. Some Muslims' response to this is that the non-Muslims attach the animals from behind, like cowards; while Muslims confront the animal in a manly manner, face-to-face, from the front. Of course this is not a good reason; it is only a joke.

Scientific tests have proven that when the animal's throat is slit along with the windpipe and the vein (without damage to the spinal cord), the animal dies a painless death. The animal twitches its legs, it is not because of pain but because the heart has pumped out all the blood from the legs. It is this twitching of the lags, this thrashing about of the dying animal that leads the non-Muslim to believe that the animal is in pain. Blood carries toxins and impurities that are harmful for humans. Islam prohibits the eating/drinking of blood. Meat without blood lasts longer than meat with blood in it.

Misconception # 9: Going around the Kabah is idol worship.

Reply: No religion is more vocal in condemning idol worship than Islam. The Muslims do not worship Kabah, only God, or Allah. While circumambulating the Kabah they chant: La Illa Ha Ill-lal-lah. (There is no object worthy of worship but Allah).

The Kabah is for unifying Muslims at prayer. It would be chaotic if Muslims prayed in any direction they chose. The Kabah provides a chance to unify in prayer as all Muslims face one spot, the Kabah. Throughout the globe people from various countries face North, South, East and West only to face the Kabah. When the Arabs drew the map of the globe, they put Makkah in the center; but when the Western people gained power, they put Greenwich in the center. But if you look at the map, Makkah continues to be in the center of the globe even today. Alhamdulillah!

Some accuse Muslims to be idol worshippers because they kiss the black rock at Kabah. This they do only because they saw the prophet do it. The black stone has no power to benefit or harm you. In olden times, the call to prayer was given by standing on the top of Kabah. If Muslims were idol worshippers, would they stand on top of their 'idol' and call people to pray. Does a Hindu or a Christian stand on top of their idols and call others to join in the worship?

Misconception # 10: Muslims are wrong in preventing non-Muslims from visiting Makkah.

Reply: Allah has prohibited this. Makkah is not a place of tourism, but a place of reverence and worship. A non-Muslim has no reverence for Makkah, and therefore should not be there as a mere spectator.

Although I am an Indian, I can't go to the cantonment area in Bombay where the military is based. I need a special permit. Similarly, all countries have their own rules to allow visitors in. Applicants must meet certain conditions insisted on by the host country. I had to meet the conditions of the US Government to visit USA. Similarly, there are conditions to visit Makkah. The condition is: You must recite from your heart "La illa-ha-ill-lal-lah, Mohammed-ur rasul Allah" (I bear witness that there is no object worthy of worship except Allah, and that Mohammed is the messenger of Allah).

Misconception # 11: Muslims wrongly don't eat pork

Reply: God has prohibited pork. There are several references even in the Bible where swine meat is prohibited. Science has associated 70 diseases with swine meat, the most dangerous being tapeworm, for which there is no cure. It causes irreparable damage to the insides of human beings. Even if a pig has been raised on a farm and its flesh is cooked very well at high temperatures, certain germs never die. The pig is a filthy animal; it eats human excreta. It has to protective instinct for its female. It is a shameless animal. Therefore people who eat its flesh, have no shame if their females mate with other men.

PoliticsObasanjo's New Years Letter To Goodluck by mahdino(op): 10:15am On Jan 01, 2014
IT IS TOO LATE
With so much pressure mounted on me by the Nigeria and
International media do I write to you once again before the year end.
May I let you know that I received your letter, even though addressed
to me, but was read first before me by the public through the media.
Even the attempt by your Media S.A to use my daughter against me
was also gotten. I do not have issues with since you claimed mine
never got to you first before the media published.
Mr President, in less than eleven hours from now, you and I will be
shouting ‘Happy New Year’ and will even exchange text messages and
call each other, but I have deemed it fit to send you this last
message before you and I will shout the ritual shouts of joy. It
doesn’t end there that the new year is very close, but it’s also my
pleasure to tell you that in less than 70 days of 2014, I will be 77
years, a year which crossed the biblical three scores and ten, and
thus should not be afraid to speak the truth even if it hurts. And you
may not easily remember this, but 2014 will make you 57 years of age,
a year which you were born-1957. From all available calculations, I am
older than you with 20 years, an age ripe enough to father you; hence
this letter is like a message from a father to a son and not as an ex-
president to a sitting president like you alluded in your reply to me.
Be that as it may, your reply jolted me back to reality that I made a
mistake in the title of my last letter to you – ‘Before it is too late’. I
just realized that it is already too late for you to make amends. Very
few leaders make positive things happen within two years of
leadership and you are obviously not in that category, as you have less
than fifteen months to hand over the baton, except you wish to
contest again, which will be a breach of the personal vow you made
not to run. Let your conscience be your judge on that. I wish to now
answer the posers you raised in your reply to me.
Joe, you raised the issue of Boko Haram ravaging the North East
being ravaged by terrorists and insurgents; and haven cross checked
the eight years I ruled as President, there was no such record of such
happening in my regime. A pilot has a co-pilot incase the plane is
drifting afar and you were the co-pilot when late President Musa
Yaradua held sway, and Boko Haram reared their ugly head which
your regime has now made beautiful. Mr President, I wish to know like
many Nigerians what advise you gave to your boss to stem the tide
then, in private or during the Federal Executive Council (FEC)
meetings. To put the blame of Boko Hara solely on Yaradua will be a
great disservice to his memory.
As a matter of fact, Boko Haram was not prominent during Yaradua’s
regime; rather your kinsmen from the creek who termed themselves
militants were the ones having a field day. It is these militants that
your former boss dealt with which has caused us the current peace we
enjoy in the Niger Delta as well as more inflow of cash which your
Minister of Petroleum has turned to her personal fiefdom today,
awarding contracts to her cronies, while she plans to sell of the
refineries to them with your able connivance. If Yaradua could solve a
problem in your region, it will be more honorable for you to do so to
his region; that is what my people in Yoruba term as a fight of the
dogs. As you admitted in your letter that I advised you to use the
carrot and stick approach, I still maintain you do so. I regret to say
that your approach has not been sincere enough.
You mentioned my military tactics against Odi, stating that it never
yielded the desired result. Mr President, my invasion of Odi remains
the best strategy to have used then, considering the fact that we
were just entering democracy and all insurgence has to be quenched
immediately. If I were to take the same decision again, I will take
same and I have no regret in what I did. You referred to the attack
on you in 2007 and I begin to woYou referred to the attack
on you in 2007 and I begin to wonder who was in control then. You
were the Governor and had all the apparatus of state to effect
arrest; even to apprehend innocent citizens and term them suspects
were within your power, thus I see no reason why such should even
come up in your letter.
I had my faults during my tenure but I never laid blames on the past
leadership. For you to write that kidnapping and armed robbery began
long before you became President is totally untenable. May I also
remind your Excellency that I was not also the President then, but I
didn’t complain. My job was to reposition while yours is to consolidate,
and to the best of my conscience; I repositioned the country to the
path of democratic rule where the Soldiers have been perpetually kept
in the barrack.
You claimed that I am aware of prosecuted corrupt officials by this
regime, but I am sorry to say that I am completely ignorant of any
corrupt public officials that you have jailed. They are not hidden Mr
President, as they abound around you. What is Stella Oduah still doing
in the Aviation Industry if truly you are prosecuting them? Why is
Diezani Alison Madueke still doing her beauty pageant show close to
the Oil sector if you mean your war against corruption? Do I need to
mention your Attorney General, Education Minister or the Minister of
Niger Delta Affairs amongst sundry others? It is no longer news that
the EFCC has become a toothless bulldog under your watch. I may be
accused of being selective in those they prosecuted but that is a tale
peddled by the media by my then political opponents. Nigerians wish to
see those selected corrupt few who will be jailed.
Joe, I did not mince words when I wrote that you are sinking the ship
of the PDP. Since your ascension to the throne of Aso Rock, our party
fortune has nosedived. None of the governorship elections held under
you has seen us coasting to victory; rather you dine with the
opponents. It is my belief that you agopponents. It is my belief that you agreed with my letter on this,
hence our party is standing solidly behind our candidate, Tony Nwoye,
to challenge the Anambra guber election in court. I do know that it is
all to the gallery as nothing good will come out of it. In PDP, rigging
is the game and you cannot claim to be unaware of it. How did you
get into power if we didn’t rig you in? Do I need to remind you that
your home state which produced your ‘house boy’, Seriake Dickson was
rigged? It makes no sense claiming a saint when you are a product of
what you condemn.
Your Excellency, the most virtuous prize for statesmen is honor. You
did not just tell me that you will not contest the 2015 election, but
told other governors. Before my letter was written to you, many
governors have told the public that you made the pact with them to
run for only one term. While it is your right to run again, I wish to
remind you that at my age I will not lie, especially not against
someone young enough to be my son, more so you are my protégé. It
was you promise to me to lead for one term that made me announce
to Nigerians that they should vote for you, as you have promised to
run for one term. The video footage of the rally where that
statement was made is still available for you to watch. Let me now be
the liar before Nigerians, but let God be the judge.
I do hope that in the coming year, you would have looked into the last
letter I wrote to you and make amends, especially concerning our
political fortunes. You have two chances to redeem the party from
losing the 2015 election, which is to win the Ekiti and Osun States
governorship election coming up in 2014. Mr President, your opponents
in those states will be planning to rig as well, and it will be foolhardy
for you to believe that mere going to present the flag to our
candidate is enough to win the election. Remember that they are the
incumbent, but also have a flash back that we did it in 2003 in four
South West States with the ex
Remember that they are the
incumbent, but also have a flash back that we did it in 2003 in four
South West States with the exception of Lagos where we swept way
the incumbent. I need not teach you the tactics, as you have practiced
it already in your home state. Sir, snatch the victory in these two
States and send a message for 2015; then let them approach the
tribunal for court victory which if well played they can never get.
Before the year ends again; I wish to apologise to Nigerians for
imposing on them wrong Presidents who have not tasted what they

your numerous sins. They are easy people to handle and please with a

And don't come back until you have done your homework. cool
In no way is any of the contrdictions explained and above I have given u some verse to explain which u have failed, infact u are not even ashame saying all these filt dirt is from God. Lot had sex with his daughters Genesis 19:33-35, mother had sex with her son Genesis 35:22, father-in-law had sex with daughter-in-law Genesis 38:15-18 (don't tell me that obasanjo has been reading that verse), rape between brother and sister 2 Samuels 13:10-14 indeed these contradicts the teaching of God. They are not the words of God.

flakky02: CHRISTIANITY & ALCOHOL
Can a child of God drinks alcohol, at least little? Please read!

Judges 13:7, “And He said to me, ‘Behold, you shall conceive and bear a son. Now drink no wine or similar drink, nor eat anything unclean, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb to the day of his death.’”

The Nazirite!

Samson was conceived as a Nazirite of God and was to be a Nazirite through out his lifetime. In Old Testament, a Nazirite was a person who separated and consecrated himself unto God for a period of time and followed the law of Nazirite. One major law of Nazirite was abstinence from wine. Samson was conceived and born nazirite of God who was to be a life nazirite of God, the angel of God warned the parents not to drink wine during the pregnancy and since Samson would be a life nazirite, he was supposed to stay away from wine.

Drinking to Destruction
After many years, Samson began to drink wine and that led to his destruction, because as a nazirite of God, he was forbidden to drink wine. It was actually the drinking of wine that laid the foundation of Samson’s destruction. It was not a sin for others to drink wine then, but because Samson was a nazirite of God and nazirites don’t drink wine. Numbers 6:1-4.

Nazirite of Jesus
When you become a child of God through Jesus Christ, you become a nazirite of God for life, separated unto God fully and forever. As a nazirite of Jesus Christ, no drinking of alcohol, not even a little.

Here is the answer to the above question, it is not a sin for you to drink beer or alcoholic drink as long you are not a separated born again Christian, as long you are not a nazirite of Jesus, but when you genuinely surrender your life to Jesus and become an heavenly recognized Christian, you become a nazirite of God and it is forbidden for you to drink any alcohol.

Do Not Be Drunk With Wine!
Ephesians 5:18, “And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,”
When Apostle Paul said, “Do not be drunk with wine” does that implies a child of God can drink alcohol moderately but not to stupor? The answer is no! What it means is that a child of God can drink wine but not alcoholic wine, not any wine that has the capacity of alcohol to make people drunk at any level of drinking. Any wine that can make you drunk contains alcohol and a child of God must not drink such.

It was not every wine during the time of Jesus and Paul contained alcohol as it is in our present time. At least you will agree with me that the wine which Jesus Christ used for the Holy Communion was not alcoholic since we still have and use the same wine today. It is a fruit of the vine, juice wine, and non-alcoholic. Matthew 26:28. So, some wines then were not alcoholic and also today; such fruit, juice wine, non-alcoholic wines are meant for a child of God who is interested. Anything apart from that is dissipation and will hinder the free flow of Holy Spirit in one’s life.

No Drinking, No Selling and No Abetting!
As it is sinful for a nazirite of God to drink alcoholic drink, so it is sinful to selling or to work at where they produce alcoholic drinks. Those who aid and abet alcoholic drinks are working directly against God and walking directly into God’s judgment. ““But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets saying, ‘Do not prophesy!’ Amos 2:12

Brother u are coming close to Islam, if u don't want to take alcohol then u have to become a muslim, that is ur way out. If u go by the bible that Jesus turn water into wine then u can have it. Only Islam has the solution to all your problems.

Baby mama: I thought they were all saints
And that only reverend fathers violated kids
God punish him!!
Why violate the kids when he should have asked for their hands in marriage grin
Thank God u know that Islam strictly condems act like that and it is not a practice of muslims, if it was a pastor or rev. Father I won't be suprise, if u implement the sharia law (100 lashes) on him he won't dare think of it. The prophet said u should marry if u have the means and if u don't have the means keep fasting. Today scientist has confirm that if your stomach is empty u can control your desire. Indeed it is a shame for u as a muslim to be found in that act cos in Islam it is so easy to marry even economicaly. So desist from it, leave it to the pastors, Rev. Father and priest
Christianity EtcRe: Mary Mother Of Jesus In The Quran (peace Be Upon Them) by mahdino: 12:41pm On Dec 30, 2013
mazaje: I said the only reason why he honoured a jewish girl was because he wanted to use the story to create his own religion. . .What is there not to understand in that?. . .
If he want to create a religion in Arabia, the best way is to say she is a harlot and prove to his people that there is no way a woman can give birth without meeting a man, and he will get his people support since he knows that the Jews and Arabs are at logger heads. Do u know even the Jews could have supported him , cause up to present times the Jews gave the name of a Roman soldier, they say he slept with Mary. Please come up with a better accountn this one u gave is not logical.

mazaje: One can talk good of his enemy if he wants to take what belongs to his enemy and make it his. . .By the way the koran does not talk god of the jews, it calls them pigs are other derogatory terms. Nelson Mandela was once the enemy of the west, he was even labelled a terrorist, years later he became their friend and was considered to be one of the greatest leaders of the 21st century. . .Did god command the western countries to speak good and change their stands against him?. . .What exactly are you saying my friend?. . .
There u go again beating around the bush, don't write just because u want to write something. I have explained to u that if it was not because Mohammad (saw) was commanded by God, there was no reason why he will stand in the midst of his people arabs and start honouring a Jewish girl. If he had been in Isreal then u could have said he wanted their support, if u have an audience u won't just talk to annoy them only if the messege is true and nothing else. U are talking about Mandela, we all know the reason why when the Whites understood there was no way the had to free him, the whole Africa kept protesting to set south Africa free. So pls don't deviate again, u have to tell us whether Mohammad (saw) then was in Isreal or was he talking to a Jew or was that the Jew put a gun to his head or was there a protest by some Jew. Pls brother I'm not arguing with u, but be fair to yourself God will not come down to u and tell this is the truth, u have to free minded and seek for the truth and is in media like this, God will not ask me why I did not deliver the messege to u, u can bear me witness, I have but u reject
