@Crispels. God say, love your neighbours and do not commit adultery ,love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you. What is wrong in this commandment ? Which among is your favourite sin ? That you cannot do away with ? Most atheists hate the bible because the bible focus on their wickedness , ATHEISTS CONTRADICT THE BIBLE, their character contradict the bible.
To be religious doesent mean you are brainwashed, none of you atheists were born atheist from birth , someone bring this whole idea of atheism into you , meaning the religious people can call an atheists brainwashed and they are not wrong.
'There is neither Jew nor Greek,slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus' (Galatians 3:28; Colossians 3:11).
Bible verses like that are still shaking and shaping the world after 2,000 years. It is not merely that the Bible was 20 centuries ahead of its time, it was the Bible that at certain points in history pushed and dragged our western world to its present point of tolerance. Christianity is the world's greatest leveler. In Jesus' presence, everyone is equally precious. Every day all over the world cruel manipulation takes place by people deceitfully using the word 'love'. The result is much cynicism, hurt and distrust. Yet the counterfeit never invalidates the genuine. Just as unscrupulous people have discovered the exploitive power of the word 'love,' some have discovered the word 'Jesus'. But people only counterfeit things of value. |

adewalker: . U said jesus led like moses,where did jesus lead jews to?,moses didn't turn water to wine,the jews accepted moses,they rejected jesus,jesus didn't die on a hill,stop brainwashing ur christian,he died on a cross,stop the lies haba,jesus and moses never found any new religion,moses didn't found judaism,he never heard the word wen he was alive,jesus never even heard the word christianity in his life,jesus himself said he didn't come with a new law,he said he came to fulfill the pre existing law of moses,so where did he found a new law,why do lie like this?which brothers and sisters did jesus have?oh my God!,wen will stop playing games this people!,which new identity did jesus give the jews,cos I know they rejected him!,jesus taught his followers how to pray,but name one follower that follow it,again which promise land did jesus led the jews,this is a religious forum,and yet u are making up lies,which 70 rulers did jesus appoint over isreal?are u a literate brother,don't u know wat similarities means again!?,u said they both performed miracles,then u started mentioning their miracles,that aren't even alike,moses turned a rod to serpent,did jesus do that?,no!,moses brot a law,did jesus did?no,moses was loved by the jews,jesus hated by them,moses migrated his people,jesus never migrated the jews,in the verse in question God said"I will raise a prophet from among their bethren.."God didn't say within ur brethren,who are the brethren of jews?arab,yet some people reject mohammad!,but God already knew that,so God said"and it shall come to pass that whoever will not harken to the command he shall give in my name,I will require it of him" this is God saying whoever doesn't harken to the command of the prophet,he shall revenge of it,so if u don't follow the command of mohammad,God will require u of it in the day of judgement,u will come to know this is the problems you have when you don't read the bible, I will not argue with you, you know why ? Because ALL my christians brothers knows everything I said was in the bible.the only point I peak in your post is the rejection of Jesus which can be explain, as a matter of fact , not ALL Jews reject Jesus. the isrealite thought the messiah who is the king of kings will fight war just as the kings in the old testament do , but Jesus came to restore the kingdom adam lost from the beginning, the bible say Jesus preach the kingdom of heaven, here what the disciples say to Him: Act 1:6-8 6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” You see, even His disciples misunderstood Him, it is only Simon peter knows who Jesus really IS ,all the rest don't know His mission,Jesus did not came to restored the kingdom to isreal, so the Jews thought he fail, that why they reject him, but one thing for sure, not AlL reject the message. |

When you say corrupted, it mean ,it is the original document but men corrupted it , in other word ,it is the Original word of God which you claimed It was corrupted by men. now answer this: Why will an ominipotent Allah not know in the future, Paul will corrupt his word YET ask muhammed to make confirmation from the same book which will be corrupted in the FUTURE ? If Paul should play such an important role in corrupting Allah word, why won't Allah give warning about Paul ? Don't you think anytime you say the bible is corrupted, you are trying to say Allah fail to guide his word (after he had VOW to protect them ) ? https://www.nairaland.com/2535883/allegedly-corrupted-scripture-questions-muslims |

Surah 6:101: “To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: How can He have a son when He hath no consort?” (Yusuf Ali)
Yet, the Qur’an itself records that Mary had a son without a consort.
Surah 19:20-21: She said: How can I have a son when no mortal hath touched me, neither have I been unchaste! He said: So (it will be). Thy Lord saith: It is easy for Me. And (it will be) that We may make of him a revelation for mankind and a mercy from Us, and it is a thing ordained. (Pickthall)
If Mary could produce a son without a husband, why would it be impossible for the Almighty Creator to produce a son without a wife? Why do you believe that the Almighty God is incapable of doing something that he himself empowered Mary to do? If Mary can beget a son without the sexual involvement of a husband, why cannot the Almighty God produce a son without the sexual association of a wife If Almighty God was able to create the vast universe and every living being in it out of nothing, why is he unable to produce a son for himself without a wife? When you say that God cannot have a son without a consort, is this not limiting God’s almightiness?
And the Qur’an acknowledges:
Surah 39:4: “If Allah had willed to choose a son, He could have chosen what He would of that which He hath created.”
Well, does not this Qur’anic verse prove that God can and could have a son? That he could have a son anytime he wants? And that He could simply create a son for himself?Is this not exactly what the Holy Bible teaches? ( Colossians 1:15) |

God told Moses to speak to his brothers,
the Israelites, about the prophet he
would raise up for them:
Deuteronomy 18:18
I will raise up for them a prophet like
you [Moses]from among their
brothers; I WILL PUT MY WORD IN HIS
MOUTH,and he will tell them
everything I command him.
This is NOT how muhammed received his
revelation ,Muhammad, the self-
proclaimed prophet of God, was not the
prophet predicted by Moses to come into
the world.
Furthermore, the one, true God (who is
not Allah) DID NOT PUT WORD INTO
MUHAMMED MOUTH AND COMMAND
HIM TO SPEAK TO HIS PEOPLE by His
angel, Jibrael as the Qu'ran claimed
(surah2:10)
Qur'an 12:2
"We have SENT it down as an Arabic
Qur'an so you people may
understand / reason"
Does sent looks like putting word in your
mouth
? The muslims claimed Allah sent the
quran down from heaven to muhammed
but in deutoronumy 18:18 it say God will
put his word in the mouth of the
prophet.Allah did not put his word on
the mouth of muhammed.
No prophet ever claimed to received
revelation via sent down from heaven
only muhammed.
Surah 4:171: “Christ Jesus the son of
Mary was (no more than) an apostle
of God, and HIS WORD , which he
bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit
proceeding from him: so believe in
God and His apostles.” (Yusuf Ali)
In Surah 4:171,Jesus is called,“His word"
no other prophet were given this benefit
ONLY Jesus .
The fact is, the prophet predicted to
come by Moses was not Muhammad but
was Jesus; He was of the tribe of Judah, a
son of Israel/Jacob. Jesus said, "If you
believed Moses, you would believe me,
for he wrote about me" (John 5:46).
Those who were witnesses of Jesus'
miracles asserted, " Surely this is the
Prophet who is to come into the
world." (John 6:14). Philip, one of Jesus’
disciples, stated, "We have found the
one Moses wrote about in the Law, and
about whom the prophets also wrote
Jesus of Nazareth " (John 1:45). |
Christianity Etc › Re: The Shepherd Psalm by malvisguy212(op): 9:47am On Aug 23, 2015 |
malvisguy212: Psalm 23 has six verses.It is especially appreciated by unsaved church people who like to think the Lord is their Shepherd when He's not. Unfortunately, some of the better known portions of Scripture are the portions that deal with anything except salvation. Perhaps the most well known verses of Scripture--or portions--are the Sermon on the Mount, I Corinthians 13,the Ten Commandments, the Lord's Prayer, and Psalm 23. Now, the reason why these are favorites is because nothing in one of those passages could tell anybody how to be saved. And all those passages assume the man is either an Old Testament saint or a New Testament saint. So all unsaved people like those portions of Scripture that don't call their sins to their attention.
But since we(born again) are saved, we do know the Lord is our Shepherd, and that He is our personal Shepherd. And I can truthfully say that the Lord is my shepherd individually.
This is the Shepherd Psalm.Psalm 22 deals with the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and resurrection. Psalm 23, then, deals with the relationship of the Lord Jesus Christ to the individual saint after the resurrection. And Psalm 24 plainly speaks of the Second Advent of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Psalms are laid out in prophetic order: Psalm 22, the crucifixion; Psalm 23, a picture of the Church Age; and Psalm 24, a picture of the Second Advent.
Psalm 23 has a beautiful outline: In verse 1 we have a happy life. In verse 4 we have a happy death. And in verse 6 we have a happy eternity. In the great Psalm, Psalm 23, we find the Lord is with me, He is beneath me, He is before me, He is around me, He is after me, and He is ahead of me. Psalm 23 is David historically speaking about his relationship with the Lord, and pictures the relationship of the Christian who's got into the right fold.
The Lord is my shepherd" Notice the personal wording. The Lord is not our shepherd. The Lord is my shepherd. There's a big difference when you get to know the Shepherd. "The Lord is my shepherd.
The Lord is my Shepherd: That's Relationship! I shall not want: That's Supply! He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: That's Rest! He leadeth me beside the still waters: That's Refreshment! He restoreth my soul: That's Healing! He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness: That's Guidance! For His name sake: That's Purpose! Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death: That's Testing! I will fear no evil: That's Protection! For Thou art with me: That's Faithfulness! Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me: That's Discipline! Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: That's Hope! Thou annointest my head with oil: That's Consecration! My cup runneth over: That's Abundance! Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: That's Blessing! And I will dwell in the house of the Lord: That's Security! Forever: That's Eternity! |

Khalil02: Analysis of Deuteronomy 18:18 and who it actually fits.
18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and He shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. This prophecy fits Muhammad s.a.w like a globe. But the Christians claims it talking about Jesus peace be upon him. Now let see who it fits;Muhammmad or Jesus (Isah) peace be upon them: 1. Muhammad and Moses (Musa) had parents but Jesus only had mother. 2. Both Moses and Muhammad had children but Jesus had non. 3. Moses and Muhammad was born in a natural way while Jesus was born in a Miraculous fassion or way. 4. Moses and Muhammad was accepted by their people but Jesus was rejected by his people. It is said in the Bible that he Jesus came unto his own but his own received him not. Jesus was sent to the jews but they rejected him and moses was accepted. 5. Moses and Muhammad where kings and rulers on earth while Jesus was not. When we say kings and rulers we mean they have the capacity to inflict capital punishment see numbers 15:36. Jesus said my kingdom is not of this world meaning am not a ruler on earth see John 18:36. 6. Muhammad and Moses came with a new law while Jesus came to follow the Law of Moses. Jesus said think not that i have come to destroy the law of the prophet but i have come to fulfil the law, for verily i say onto thee as heaven and earth pass one dot or word shall not pass untill all be fulfill Mathew 5:17&18. 7. Moses lead his people out ot Egypt to the holly land and Muhammad lead his people from Makkah to Medina i.e hijra. But Jesus never left his land thus hijra is the beginning of our calendar. 8. Moses worn against pharaoh and Muhammad worn against the people that fought him but Jesus never worn in the worldly sence infact Christians believes he was killed although Muslims dont share thesame idea. 9. Moses died a natural death and was buried in the ground likewise Muhammad but Christians beleives he was resurrected and Muslims don't. Either ways he Jesus didnt die a Natural death. 10. The Christians beleives Jesus is similar to Moses yet call Jesus God or son of God. 11. Both Moses and Muhammad became prophet at the age of fourty while Jesus became a prophet at the age of thirty. 12. The brethren of the Jews are the Arabs through Abraham's wife Hagar see Genesis 16:1-4 lease you will say Abraham never marry Hagar and you will be insulating the prophet of God the Almighty. Infact no prophet has come from Israel ever since Moses died 10 And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face, Deuteronomy 34.
Conclusively,by all standards only Muhammad peace be upon him fits this chapter of the bible but if you have contrary view with evidence and quotes bring it on. To Allah the Almighty we belong and to Him is our return. Moses – The first mediator Jesus – The final mediator Moses was born as a Hebrew Jesus was born as a Hebrew Moses was chosen by God to be a leader Jesus was chosen by God to be a leader Moses was born while his people were suffering under a cruel leader. (Pharaoh) Jesus was born while his people were suffering under a cruel leader. (Herod) Moses hid in Egypt as a child. Jesus hid in Egypt as a child. The leader of the land that Moses was born into tried to kill all of the babies when he was born. The leader of the land that Jesus was born into tried to kill all of the babies when He was born. Moses turned water into blood. Jesus turned water into wine. Moses died on a hill. Jesus died on a hill. Moses fasted 40 days and faced a spiritual crisis on a mountain Jesus fasted 40 days and faced a spiritual crisis on a mountain. Moses told people about the need for a Passover lamb. Jesus became the Passover lamb. Moses founded a new religion Jesus founded a new religion Moses communicated directly with God Jesus communicated directly with God Moses performed miracles Jesus performed miracles Moses revised an existing religion Jesus revised an existing religion Moses was a law giver – gave the ten commandments Jesus was a law giver – gave the great commandment. Moses was hated by the ruling party (Egyptians) Jesus was hated by the ruling party (Pharisees) Moses had brothers and sisters who misunderstood him. Jesus had brothers and sisters who misunderstood him. Moses chose 12 leaders to follow. Jesus chose 12 leaders to follow. Moses gave his people a new identity as a people. Jesus gave his people a new identity as a people. Moses had followers who strayed from his teachings. Jesus had followers who strayed from his teachings. Moses is arguably the lead figure of the Old Testament. Jesus is the lead figure of the New Testament. Moses taught his followers how to pray. Jesus taught his followers how to pray. Moses chose people to carry on when he was leaving. Jesus chose people to carry on when he was leaving. Moses led his people to the promised land. Jesus leads his people to the promised land. Moses sent 12 spies to Canaan so he could bring people to the promised land. Jesus sent 12 disciples to the world so he could bring people to the promised land. Moses appointed 70 rulers over Israel Jesus appointed 70 disciples to the nations. The people picked up stones to stone Moses but they did not succeed. The people picked up stones to stone Jesus, but they did not succeed. Moses controlled the waters of the Red Sea Jesus controlled the Sea of Galilee Moses brought living water out of the Rock Jesus brings living water to all of his believers. The face of Moses shown with glory on Mount Sinai. The face of Jesus shown with glory on the mount of Transfiguration. Moses lifted the brazen serpent up in the wilderness to heal people Jesus was lifted up on the cross to heal us from our own sins. Moses was a shepherd Jesus was the good shepherd |

When you work in a small organization, God may have a better option for you but he may want to see how you handle where you are at the moment hence he leaves you there for a bit. Test your patience, your resolute, your diligence etc.
On the other hand, satan makes you back bite, speak ill of people, stab your colleague in the back so that you can get a promotion because you are not patient and you are not in faith enough to see the bigger picture. |

malvisguy212: A teacher is using the "scientific method" to teach the class about evolution... TEACHER: Tommy do you see the tree outside? TOMMY: Yes. TEACHER: Tommy, do you see the grass outside? TOMMY: Yes. TEACHER: Go outside and look up and see if you can see the sky. TOMMY: Okay. (He returned a few minutes later) Yes, I saw the sky. TEACHER: Did you see God? TOMMY: No. TEACHER: That's my point. We can't see God because he isn't there. He doesn't exist. A little girl spoke up and wanted to ask the boy some questions. The teacher agreed and the little girl questioned the boy. LITTLE GIRL: Tommy, do you see the tree outside? TOMMY: Yes. LITTLE GIRL: Tommy do you see the grass outside? TOMMY: Yessssss (getting tired of the questions this time). LITTLE GIRL: Did you see the sky? TOMMY: Yessssss. LITTLE GIRL: Tommy, do you see the teacher? TOMMY: Yes LITTLE GIRL: Do you see the teacher's mind? TOMMY: No. LITTLE GIRL: Then according to what we were taught today in school, she must not have one!
The above joke is a good lesson in the problem of trying to prove the existence of God using the scientific tools available to us. A Creator God, if He exists, must, by definition, exist beyond the limits of the universe in order to have created it. The laws of physics tell us that we cannot make measurements beyond the limits of this universe. Therefore, scientists can conclusively determine that we cannot ever detect God using any of our instruments.
However, God is not restricted to our limitations and could choose to reveal part of Himself to us. God could not reveal His entirety to us without causing major problems in our universe. The sudden appearance of dimensions and matter(?) from outside the universe would destroy anything in the vicinity and maybe even destroy the entire universe. This is why the Bible says that nobody can see God and live.
However, God could reveal His nature by communicating with humans and sending an incarnated version of Himself. This is exactly what Christianity claims - that God gave messages to humans (through the prophets) and sent an incarnation of Himself (His Son), who took on the form of a human in order to interact with humans directly. Although you cannot see God directly in this life (but you will see Him in the next) , you can experience Him through your spirit. This is the claim and promise of Christianity that accounts for its popularity. When you accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, you enter into a relationship with Him through the Holy Spirit. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit, which you will directly experience when you come to faith, confirms both the existence and the power of God to the believer. It is through this relationship that we can enter into the joy of the Lord and experience the fullness of the Christian life.
If you are not a Christian, you will not believe what I just told you. I know, because when I was an agnostic for 33 years, I did not believe that you could have a relationship with God. Since 1988 I have been experiencing the joy of the fellowship of the Lord and I want the same for you. Don't wait! Get your questions answered and come to faith based upon the facts, and enter into the joy that cannot be found through anything else in this world. Well, its your choice. Do you see your mind? http://www.godandscience.org/apologetics/notseegod.html . |

malvisguy212: Muslims talk often about the many contradictions in the Bible. The number of contradictions vary depending on whom you are talking to. The principle of non-contradiction has been elevated to the status of an absolute criterion, capable of being applied by human beings in judging the authenticity of God’s word. But the Christian cannot agree that the principle of non- contradiction is given to men as a criterion by which they are to judge God’s word. It is this criterion which the Muslims have imposed upon the discussion of revelation.
The Bible is not simply one book compiled by one man as the Muslims claim for their Qur’an, but a compilation of 66 books, written by more than 40 authors, over a period of 1500 years! For that reason Christians have always maintained that the entire Bible shows the imprint of human hands. Evidence of this can be found in the variety of human languages used, the varying styles of writing, the differences in the author’s intellects and temperaments. Thought the muslims claimed the quran is sent down from heaven but there are MANY verses show the imprint of human hand in it.
DEFINITION OF INSPIRATION. In 2 Timothy 3:16, we are told that all Scripture is inspired. The word used for inspiration is theopneustos which means“God-breathed,” implying that what was written had its origin in God Himself. In 2Peter 1:21 we read that the writers were“carried along” by God. Thus, God used each writer, including his personality to accomplish a divinely authoritative work, for God cannot inspire error.
The Bible must be the invention either of good men or angels, bad men or devils, or of God. However, it was not written by good men, because good men would not tell lies by saying ‘Thus saith the Lord;’ it was not written by bad men because they would not write about doing good duty, while condemning sin,and themselves to hell; thus, it must be written by divine inspiration”
HOW DOES GOD INSPIRE HIS WRITERS? How does God inspire the writers? Does He simply move the writers by challenging their heart to reach new heights, much like we find in the works of Shakespeare, find in the works of Shakespeare, which is human literary masterpieces? Or does that which He inspire contain the words of God-along with myths, mistakes and legends, thus creating a book in which portions of the Word of God can be found, along with those of finite and fallible men? Or are the scriptures the infallible Word of God in their entirety? In other words, how, Muslims will ask, is this inspiration carried out? Does God use mechanical dictation, similar to that which we find claimed for the Qur’an, or does He use the writers own minds and experiences?
ANSWER: The simple answer is that God’s control was always with them in their writings, such that the Bible is nothing more than “THE WORD OF GOD IN THE WORD OF MEN”. This means that God utilized the culture and conventions of his penman’s ,God controls in His sovereign providence. Thus history must be treated as history, poetry as poetry, hyperbole and metaphor as hyperbole and metaphor, generalization and approximation as what they are, and so forth.
We are fully aware that the Christian criteria for revelation is not acceptable to Muslims, as it is in seeming conflict with their own.Yet,by simply measuring the Bible against the‘sent down’ concept which they claim for their Qur’an, Muslims condemn themselves of duplicity, since they demand of the New Testament that which they do not demand of the previous revelations, the Taurat and Zabuur, though both are revered as equally inspired revelations by all Muslims. Muslims believe that Moses WROTE THE TAURAT AND DAVID THE ZABUUR . However, neither claimed to have received their revelations by a means of A' sent down’ transmission. So why insist on such for the New Testament, especially since the document makes no such claim itself?
PROPHET WITHOUT PROVED? Left unsaid is the glaring irony that the claim for the sent down revelation for the Qur’an comes from one source alone, the man to which it was supposedly revealed, Muhammad. Yet there are no external witnesses both before or at the time who can corroborate Muhammad’s testimony. Not even miracles are provided to substantiate his claims, nor are there any known documents of such a Qur’an from the century in which it is claimed to have been revealed.
What Muslims must understand is that Christians have always maintained that the Word of God, the Bible, was indeed written by men, but that these men were always under the direct inspiration of the Holy Spirit (2 Peter 1:20-21). Whereas the Qur’an is alleged to be free of any human element, God in the Bible deliberately chose to reveal His Word through individuals who were inspired prophets and apostles, so that His Word would not only b conveyed to humanity correctly, and comprehensively but would be communicated to their understanding and powers of comprehension as well. This the Qur’an CANNOT do if it has no human element, as is generally alleged. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Examining Quran 9:29 – Islam Sanction The Killing Of Christians & Jews? by malvisguy212: 4:44pm On Aug 22, 2015 |
truthman2012: Quran 9:29 is one of the clearest verses in the quran, which no amount of twisting can change the meaning.
Surah 9:29: Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, EVEN IF THEY ARE THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK , until they pay the Jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued.
The Romans are also the people of the Book, right?
The phrase ''EVEN IF THEY ARE THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK'' in that verse shows the Romans were under a secondary attack. They were not the first target. If the story cooked-up by fake truthman2013 is true, why was Muhammad's attack on Romans (the people of the Book) secondary? I mean if the Romans initiated the fight according to the OP, why was the islamic attack on them secondary and not primary? '' EVEN IF''.
Besides, Rilwayne01 aka fake truthman2013 had on many occassions on this forum claimed and supported his claim with unrelated islamic sources that Quran 9:29 was revealed following pagans breaking the treaty they had with the Muhammadans. Now it is no more pagans who broke the treaty but Romans who raised war against the muslims. New day new lies. It is a pity that the Devil can go to this extent to deceive some muslims. Don't you have conscience? You indeed need to lie so much to defend al-liar (allahh). Since al-liar said he is the best of deceivers, it is no surprise you are so gifted with lying spirit. FAKE truthman2013. What truth do you have in you?
Coming back to the verse 9:29, the reason for the attack on the people of the Book is already stated in the verse - the pagans, the Jews and the Christians who ''FORBADE NOT WHAT ALLAH HATH FORBIDEN BY HIS MESSENGER, AND FOR NOT ACCEPTING THE RELIGION OF THE SO-CALLED TRUTH''. Period. What has this got to do with Romans raising war?
Allah is truly the best of deceivers and that shows in the way he revealed the quran. The quran has no context and therefore you need other writters to formulate the context, which allows for various lies. Why is the quran not self-explanatory in most of its verses? The simple answer is ''TO DECEIVE by the best of DECEIVERS.
May the true God deliver the ignorant and innocent muslims. excellent post. The quran did not have historical context. |

Evil must not exist. It didn't have to.There wont be evil in the world to come. But we will still have our free-wills. Good you are a born again christian. If evil must not exist, can man have the option to love God or reject Him ? Don't you think, without evil everyone will be like 'YES MAN' to God ? The bible say trial help our faith to grow, without evil there won't be trial. |

menesheh: You are in a rigmarole flight, since you claimed that god knew all these initially, why did he created satan. Why not say no, i will not creat this meduim cus it's gonna be a snare to his people foolish atheist, read my post again, satan sin came out of his own freewill. God can stop evil, but He allow it to exist for man to have two option, reject God or accept him.even if satan did not sin, one way or the other, someone will still chose to oppose God command. |
Christianity Etc › Re: How To Watch Out For Satan’s Tricks! by malvisguy212: 4:04pm On Aug 22, 2015 |
Jeromejnr: Of course we have a freewill, that is why there is even evil in the world. Because we abuse it.
And there is no such thing as partial freewill. good, God purpose of creating us is for us to chose to worship him or reject him, so evil must exist. Are you a christian ? |

MrPresident: brainless mofos, need I to teach you that child births are witnessed by parents, grandparents, relatives, hospital attendants, etc, there are picture evidences, birth certificates, etc.

stupid slaves let me continue the brainless question. What is the exactly time your mum gave birth to you? The truth is that,the way you feel concerning my question, that how I feel concerning yours. The different is that you insult me. |

Jeromejnr: How can God create something that is against His will and still fight it and be angry with it.
BTW, God created Lucifer and not Satan.
Satan means an adversary. Something that goes against the will of God.
That was why Jesus called Peter Satan at one time. Not becausehe was possessed but because he was against God's will of seeing Jesus go to the cross.
God did not create evil or the devil or Satan. Those are forces that go against God's nature.
I know some will say there is a scripture that says "God formed good and evil.." But it has been agreed by theologians and scholars that it was a !is interpretation of the original language.
God permits evil but does not create evil?. He permits it because we humans that He gave frewill to permits it.
James said "let no man say that that when he is tempted, that he is tempted of God"
And again "all good and perfect gift comes from above and the Father of light..." do you have freewill ? Explained to me, freewill without evil. How can it work ? What is partial freewill ? God purpose of creating human is 'worship' how can you worship God without freewill ? |

menesheh: why did he decided to create it, or he could rather destroy it since he knew is gonna run opposition.
he supposed not even create it since he do envision events beforehand it happens. God wanted to create a spiritual being that will worship Him alone, not even the angels are worthy to be worship, ONLY God, so God created a perfect being including satan, to be perfect freewill had to be included, God will not override your freewill, so the points is freewill means satan has the OPPORTUNITY to reject God or accept Him, but he chose to reject God. God know All this will happened that why he pre-determined,the CHARACTER And not the IDENTITY. This is the reason you and I were created to have an unending relationship with God the Father, His Son Jesus Christ, and all those whom They would eventually bring to a glorified state ( Hebrews 2:10). God knows man cannot do away with sin ,that why He gave his son as a free gift to eternal life, this mean, if you sin you don't have to face judgement as what happen to adam , you just have to go on your knell, genuinely repent and God will forgive you. |

Jeromejnr: You don't even know how to debate the scriptures.
Can you show us scripture where it says God created Satan?
You err in interpreting the scriptures. God has created everything that ever has been, is, or will be (John 1:3). This includes physical beings and matter as well as spiritual beings ( Colossians 1:15–17). The only person who has the power of being in and of Himself meaning He has no beginning or ending and is self-existent is God ( Exodus3:14). |
