malvisguy212: the op miss the point entirely, the Lord is not speaking to Ahaz directly, but to the HOUSE OF DAVID. It is a sign for the house of David, it is a future confirmation and does not have to be fulfilled right there and then in Ahaz's time.
Isaiah 7:13, "And he said, Hear ye now, O HOUSE OF DAVID." You guys keep missing the point. Those apologists there then knew it was a riddle knotted at both ends. |

You are a kaffir and as far as muslims are concern your dead means less than the dead of chicken to them. Why didn't you ask for advice before letting him in, now it's dangerous because those animals can ambush and kill you. I can't believe any Christian will be so naive at a time like this in our history. Muslims wants Christians dead by all means and you opened your door to one? Tell them to leave. Change your house keys, and be very careful how you move. If you delay, two more will come in, then Five. Then it will be just you against how many of them?

Bro, there is nothing wrong at all in avoiding any kind of inconvenience that anyone may bring to you. You can tame him or peacefully eject him from your room by explaining how you feel about your living together. If he is a good person, he'd respect your feeling and amend his ways, tell the other guy to excuse you or they leave together. If he then try to act heedlessly, that means he's a terrible and selfish person, that kind of person doesn't deserve your friendship anyway. There are thousands of ways you can treat such person's fvkup. If you don't mind, I can share some with you after all what are friends for?  And those of you badmouthing us tabliqs... be fair ooo  |

Scholar8200: This passage is very clear.
It's best understood this way:
1. When God told Abraham that : and in
We would have thought that this would verily be Isaac! However, a number of Centuries passed before the Seed-Jesus Christ- came.
2. When God said to Adam and Eve:
You would have thought it had to be Cain or at most Abel. But milleniums passed and Lo, it was Christ!!!
3. So when God said to the House of David[b](Ahaz was not mentioned in verse13 as the reference because he obviously would not be there when this will be fulfilled but the House of David would be there)[/b] that a virgin shall conceive etc, the reference as always is Christ.
However, just like it happened above, a child was born and Isaiah had this to say: Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. Isaiah 8:17
At this time, the child on ground was a son and the prophecy in the op was also applicable to him:
Now was this fulfilled then? YES
. 9 And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin. Let the sleeping dog lies.  |

Ablution: The muslims wash their various outer parts of the body when the inside is full of immoralities and wickedness. The washing doesn't remove the sinful nature in them: they can lie and commit all sorts immoralities.
I learnt that when on travel where there is no water, they can use sand to wash their private part after urinating. Do women too put sand in their private part? Look at islamic neatness!  will you ever grow up with these senseless threads you are opening? |

Christianity Etc › Re: Islamic Prayer by maverickboy: 10:22am On Feb 02, 2016 |
malvisguy212: 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? What's this, story or questions?  |

The universe is so vast it’s almost impossible to picture what it might look like crammed into one field of view.
But musician Pablo Carlos Budassi managed to do it by combining logarithmic maps of the universe from Princeton and images from NASA. He created the image below that shows the observable universe in one disc.
Our sun and solar system are at the very center of the image, followed by the outer ring of our Milky Way galaxy, the Perseus arm of the Milky Way, a ring of other nearby galaxies like Andromeda, the rest of the cosmic web, cosmic microwave background radiation leftover from the big bang, and finally a ring of plasma also generated by the big bang.

You are seriously feeding from Lie Mohammed's pot there! GEJ has denied any such authorization and NOI said the same thing! You shouldnt bother arguing along that line. You will lose. You should ask yourself why the EFCC is unwilling to pursue the case legally but is resorting to all kinds of tactics to keep Dasuki for long periods of incaceration. All the monies that have been mentioned to have been collected by different individuals, including Dopkesi are monies from the NSA's office, not arms purchase money Bro, seriously I don't know why you are fighting for these crooks.

Even state governors have security votes and they can use it for about anything. Of course anything doesnt mean anything evil but any kind of project that is considered as something that will promote the security of the state or country as the case may be No! It's not about sentiment. It's about how it should be. Security vote, money is release to head of governance out of trust that it would be used for something appropriate. |

They come under SECURITY VOTES. They are not money for arms purchase. And under security votes, they can be used for practically anything Even to sponsor terrorism? Allocations are meant to execute worthwhile projects and not anything as you said. How is it possible for such amount to be used for just anything. |
Politics › Re: $2.1 Billion Arms Money Is Biggest Propaganda Of 2015 by maverickboy: 1:07pm On Jan 13, 2016 |
snailspeed: I have been following the so called Dasukigate and I am amazed how easy it is for a government to use the media to deceive and distract the ignorant masses. History has shown that propaganda remains the biggest tool of any government that intends to enslave a people. Unfortnately, even the current opposition has been quite incompetent in putting the records straight
For the records, there is nothing like a $2.1B arms money. It was a propaganda masterstroke well concotted by the DSS and EFCC to distract everyone from the incompetence of the Buhari administration. That is why former president Goodluck Jonathan has come out twice now to put the records staright that he never approved any $2.1B arms money. But it seems the ignorant masses still dont get it. So where did the "$2.1B arms money" headline originate from?
$2.1B was the monies that was allocated to the office of the NSA throughout Dasuki's tenure as NSA. These monies come under SECURITY VOTE. It was not money allocated to the purchase of weapons as the DSS and the EFCC have claimed. That is why they cant take Dasuki to court. They will lose woefully. Security vote is not money allocated for arms purchase. Of the whole monies that make up the $2.1B, only the $300 million from the returned Abacha loot was actually recommended for the purchase of arms. That is why in court, the charges brought against Dasuki was in that range. But they are likely going to lose in court for that because weapons were actually purchased. Whether they are worth $300 million is what the EFCC will have to prove in court. But from the way they have been refusing to follow the court process, one is safe to assume that they dont trust their own case against Dasuki.
But why did they go with the headlines of "$2.1 Billion arms purchase money" when they knew it was not the case? Because the whole anti coruption fight was only a propaganda stunt from the beginning. It was a well crafted stunt to distract the masses and persecute any dissenting voice so Buhari can fully consolidate power. Does that mean I think many of the politicians mentioned in the scandal are clean? By no means! Nigerian politicians are corrupt without a doubt including the presidency and everyone in the rulling APC party. The president's campaign itself was sponsored from corruption. The Amaechi corruption scandals are well documented with very strong evidence.
If Dasuki has stolen any funds, he should be prosecuted accordingly, but the media propaganda and charade has got to stop. Media trial is injustice in itself. I find it really deceitful when I see lines like "what will you tell the Nigerian soldiers that didnt have weapons to fight and were killed because Dasuki shared the arms money". That is nothing but propaganda and trying to appeal to sentiments to push a narrative. If that were the case, what has the same military been using to fight BH in the last 8 months since Buhari has not bought any new weapons? What weapons did the army use to push back BH prior to the 2015 elections? Did they push BH back with their bare hands too? Even Lie Mohammed claims BH has been defeated. With which weapons did the army defeat BH? With their bare hands?
It is important we put all these straight so we dont fall for cheap propoaganda by a government that has completely lost its way. The same government that claims they are fighting corruption came out with a terrible corruption laden budget where they intended to connect cables from the President's residence to the drivers residence with N300 million. In fact, the budget of yams was so laden with coruption that they had to shamelessly withdraw it.
The world has changed. If the current government thinks they will continue to rule with propaganda, they should think again because they will be exposed again and again. Thank God for social media and the Internet! well analysed writeup there! but this raises one or two questions and those are: Where does the money that was distributed to those people that have been mentioned so far comes from? Or no money was ever distributed to anybody and the names being mentioned is part of the propaganda? But mind you, not one of those people, despite realising the implications of the scandal on their political career denied to have collected money from the last administration. |

Christianity Etc › Re: What History Told And What We See Is The Opposite In The Quran. by maverickboy: 8:41am On Dec 13, 2015 |
plappville: The fact that they use the quran is a prove that they kill for thier God. They call on him when killing. The bitter truth is that They are doing what Muhammad did during his time. Christ didnt fight or kill. Anyone who follows him do like him. Thats my point. Here in the West, you see teens smoke cigarette. They smoke Because thier parents smoker. How can a smoking parent correct thier children from smoking when they are also guilty of same crime? This is the position of allahs armies. All they are doing today is a footstep of Muhammad. You cant twist it. It's not about twisting but failing to acknowledge the reality. l'll implore you to get it clearly this time because I want to give it a rest already. The fact that those christians used bible to justified their killings proved that they kill for their biblical God!  Jesus never fought simply because he was never in the situation to fight. Like other biblical messengers, he would have fought and killed if he was commanded to do so. And something you and other christians failed to realise is that fighting is ordained when It's necessary. All of you believe God only decided to be cruel towards the people of the old testament and then, because of some reason he dropped his cruelty nature and became nice towards later generations. I'm not surprised you can't see anything wrong with that because that's your stance. But do those people have different Creator/God that could have warranted them suffered such unjust cruel fate? The fact is, Jesus was never different from those old testament prophets you think of as monsters. He could have done better but not worst if God that ordained fighting for other prophets did for him. So next time you think of Jesus think of Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon and others that fought and killed. Never discriminate between them because they only carried out their assignments as were ordered.  None of them is heartless monster as your bible portrayed them, they were actually the kindest and warmest people of their generations. God only punished who deserved it through them and what I believe is that there was a huge exaggeration in the narration of their actions. So don't be embarrassed to embrace them as the predecessors of your highly respected Jesus. While Jesus didn't fight or kill, he left the likes of Deut. 13, 6 -10 which could be used to justify killing as legacy. And that among others was what those christians used as proofs for their loyalty to God of the bible.  |

plappville: Christ did not prescribe killing for Christians like Muhammad did, so what do you expect me to disprove ? You could have as well posted the verses those Christians use in supporting thier atrocities to back up your claims.. 
Muslims still kill Christians. They kill them if they refuse to deny Jesus. Boko and Isis do that. Muslims bomb churches. Christians are persecuted in muslims countries.
Give me the bible verses these so-called christians used like Isis do qoute the quran when killing. If nothing of such. They never killed for Christ but for thier own political purposes. May be if you read their stories you will know who/what they fought for for yourself. What the world knows and history bears is that they killed for their respective ideologies... and that goes a long way. Isil and others kill christians and muslims alike just like those christians killed muslims and christians during their reign, It's not new thing and no prophecy is fulfilled through that. I suppose prophecy is fulfilled at a time and other times it's mere 'reoccurrence' and no longer 'fulfilment'. No? Meanwhile, you just saw boko et al quoting Quran and you're convinced with no further rumination that what they were reading justifies their actions. But if I quote any violence verse from the bible, however damn it may be, you'll seek to explain it. No? Double standard is no fair play! As for your last statement, it's plain fallacy! The matter in question is not what you can wish away so cheaply. Not as much as you hold others ransom for similar matter. |
