Scholar8200:
She is mistaking immortality for Eternal Life (The God-Kind)!!! Why then, does the devil also have Eternal life?

Jessicha:
most religions teach that humans are immortal beings , i.e human exists forever, have a never ending life

that explains why many believ when a man dies he only shed his skin... he is alive . but what dies is his lifeless skin (think abt a snake shedding its skin to get it better )

therefore, not mortals ...

if humans are immortal beings, how can Jesus come to give everlasting life to immortal beings ? someone sud explain this absurdity

excellencyabia1:
did the early apostles observered it if it is so essential. And why does it has to stay up to so many years before coming in. Please let me state that i am just inquisitive.

There are differences between Christianity and religion, Many are GOING TO CHURCH but few are GOING DOWN THE ROAD WHICH LEADS TO LIFE. Many are RELIGIOUS but few are RIGHT WITH GOD.

Religion is DOING while Christianity is DONE. When Jesus cried on the cross, "it is finished" The work of our salvation was FINISHED, DONE, ACCOMPLISHED and COMPLETED. A religious man may be likened as a man who try to swim from river kaduna to niger by his own strength, he will never make it. But the man who is save by faith is likened to be a man who get on a ship, hoping it will take him to his destination. This man simply rests upon the ship and lets the ship do all the work.

THIS ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN RELIGION AND CHRISTIANITY.
1. RELIGION: "Salvation is something I must do. I must somehow earn or gain salvation by the way I live."

CHRISTIANITY: "Salvation is something only God can do. Salvation is of the LORD!" (Eph. 2:8-9).

2. RELIGION: Religion is summed up in one word: DO--man trying to DO different things to please God and earn His favor.

CHRISTIANITY: Christianity is summed up in one word; DONE--Christ dying on the cross to save sinful man (John 19:30).

3. RELIGION: The religious man is busy
"working" (doing good works) in order to
be saved.

CHRISTIANITY: The saved person is "not working" (Rom. 4:5) but is RESTING upon the finished work of Another. Although he must beware (1 peter 5:

4. RELIGION: RELIGION is man trying to BRING HIMSELF TO GOD (by human effort, good works, ritualism, traditionalism, sacraments, etc.).

CHRISTIANITY: CHRISTIANITY is Christ BRINGING US TO GOD on the basis of what He did for us on the cross, NOT by our own effort. (1 Peter 3:18).

5. RELIGION: Man trying to please God in the wrong way (Rom. 8:8--"So then they that are in the FLESH cannot please God".

CHRISTIANITY: Man truly pleasing God in the only way (Hebrews 11:6--"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him".

6. RELIGION: The religious man is seeking to establish his own righteousness by ignoring the way of the righteousness of God (Rom. 10:3).

CHRISTIANITY: The saved man is satisfied with the perfect righteousness of Jesus Christ (2 Cor. 5:21).

7.RELIGION: Religion is pictured in Genesis 3 by the fig leaves that Adam and Eve made for themselves--a terrible covering (Gen. 3:7).

CHRISTIANITY: Salvation is pictured in Genesis 3 by the coats of skin which God provided by way of the shedding of BLOOD--a perfect covering (Gen. 3:21).

8.RELIGION: CAIN'S RELIGION--"I bring to God the labour of my own hands" (Gen. 4:3).

CHRISTIANITY: ABEL'S FAITH--"I bring to God a blood sacrifice. An innocent substitute must die to save me" (Gen. 4:4).

Good works done by sinful man can never please a holy God. The greatest good work is GOD'S WORK accomplished by Jesus Christ who offered Himself on the cross as the sinner's Substitute.Thus we are not saved by good works but we are saved unto good works: "For we are
his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them" (Ephesians 2:10). "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure" (Philippians 2:13).

Are you resting fully in the finished work of Christ? Are you trusting in Jesus Christ, WHO HE IS, WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR YOU and WHAT HE HAS SAID IN HIS WORD? "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else" (Isaiah 45:22).

Including the talking donkey, and why?
Do you believe I am Christ?

Interesting. How how do you interpret the story of the garden of Eden? Do you think it really happened?

Jesus told his disciples to sell their outer garments and buy SWORDS !!

" He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one." (Luke 22:36)

I have no problem with gay people but raping kids or sleeping with young kids is a no no. Christianity will fall if the church accept homosexuality. That is why they are fighting it even when most of them are gay.

ifenes:
The thread is about Christianity and its many gay priests. However you shouldnt talk to me about some judgment of god when you know I clearly know there isn't a god.

When a young many ripe enough to smash a woman is still a virgin at the age of 17+,there are tendencies he will start smashing men. Why do you think at least half of priests are gays? Why was jesus said to only have moved with men/boys. Something is fishy.

Jesuismoi:
This man is mixing everything up to prove a point.

ifenes:
What if there is no god? who does the judging? Isn't it time we realize these criminals,rapist need to be locked up?

ifenes:
Even when you get bashed,leave the thread for others to learn from. You are known for insulting Islam and even going as far as claiming mohhamed was a pedophile while forgetting 50% of your pastors and catholic priests are gay and pedophiles.

I have a database of sexual offenses committed by pastors and priests . Lot of it! I only gave you a few and you closed your threads? You are indeed a coward who wants to hide the skeleton of your religion(oh I forgot,your way of life lol)

Who knows if you are also a gay priest

golpen:
Thank God for the 'mention' icon. You'd have slaughtered me from behind... Smh.

there is a difference btw studying a book and allowing someone read it for you....u will forever remain a slave to dat person who reads for you...

last time I checked,every believer was never deprived of the bible in any way...

So if some believers worship a minister,and carry him like d pics u put up,it simply means dey r zombies who accept wateva d minister or pastor says without studying to find out wat d bible says...

2 timothy 2:15 "study to shew thyself approved unto God...a Workman that needeth not be ashamed,rightly dividing the word of truth..."

A believer is meant to study d word in oda not to b deceived by dose who claim to b ministers..esp dose who speak as though dey are d only ones who have access to God's number...


there will always b false prophets, teachers and preachers of d word...they are every where even in Nigeria...but just d way u have good and bad people,u will always find both sides of d divide....

d logos which is d word of God will show u d difference....

in spite of d awesome things Jesus did on earth,he never asked his disciples or his followers to carry him or not let his feet touch d ground like dat sham of a pastor on d pic...on d contrary,he humbly washed d feet of his disciples... just to teach dem d virtues of humility....

Prayer is respectful communication
between man and God. Christians are
free to pray to their God from anywhere, from any direction, in any (respectable) position, at any time of the day or night and they can be assured that their beloved God would listen to them. To insist that you have to face a specific direction to talk to God is an insult to his Almightiness.

Psalms 4:1: “When I call, answer me,
O my righteous God.”

However, whenever Muslims want to
pray to Allah, they are commanded to do so at certain specific times, face a specific direction and follow a specific ritual.

Surah 2:144: We have seen the
turning of thy face to heaven (for
guidance, O Muhammad). And now
verily We shall make thee turn (in
prayer) toward a qiblah which is dear
to thee. So turn thy face toward the
Inviolable Place of Worship, and ye (O
Muslims), wheresoever ye may be,
turn your faces (when ye pray)
toward it. (Pickthall)

QUESTION :
1.At the time when Allah revealed Surah
2:144 to change the Qiblah from
Jerusalem to Mecca, the Ka’ba was still
a pagan shrine housing 360 pagan
idols. Why would Allah permit his
Prophet to bow towards the Ka’ba while
it was still polluted with 360 pagan
idols?
2. Why must the prayers of the Muslims
be directed towards the pagan shrine
in order to reach the ears of Allah?
3. Since the Blackstone was venerated by the pagans during pre-Islamic days,
why are Muslims all over the world
commanded to face this very pagan
Blackstone whenever they pray?
4.If you say it to unify Muslims, why are
these very same Muslims who while
praying unitedly in Arabic, still fighting
and killing each other?

4:157-158

And because of their saying (in boast), ‘We killed Messiah ‘Isa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allâh,’ – but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of ‘Isa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) But Allâh raised him [‘Isa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allâh is Ever All­Powerful, All­Wise. )
