Yeah. I really do feel good bashing people like you. I enjoy every moment of it.

Next time you want to start a debate with somebody maybe if u lead with a tone like this that person won't be so inclined to bash u thereafter.

I'm happy for you. At least you've been able to free some rage from you. At least for now. Well done sir.

You are an idiot. Took you 3 days for your brain to think up a reply. Lol. Empty nincompoop.

Everyone look at what this goat initially said and I replied:



It was the first part of that senseless quote that I was replying when I told u any prediction can come to pass given enough time. Then I replied the second part about the bible knowing the earth is round by letting u know that the Quran also gets a lot of scientific fact accurately but that does not in anyway validate the quran.
Instead of comprehension, your leaky brain muddled it altogether and started seeing things.
Next time I will be a little helpful and use a teaching aid. lol. It seems there are many lazy pseudointellectuals on Nairaland. What a disgrace.

Also, no, scientists never believed the earth was flat. People believed it. Not scientists. Stop sniffing your own faeces maybe ur brain wouldn't be malfunctioning.

Even some ancient Greeks knew the earth is spherical before scientists did. They could theorise from the shadow the earth cast on the moon during an eclipse.

By the way, the bible believes in a geocentric solar system so please stop being an idiot. Get the Bleep out of my mentions.

Even the Quran discusses about iron and some metals and how they are formed. Does that make the Quran true? Fcking idiots quoting me. Geez

Wow... I really enjoyed your comments with those sweet words. How does that make you feel now? Better? Good for you.

darkchild64:
The bible mentioned the earth is spherical in shape are you kidding me right now,okay let me not argue with you on that,but then I will tell u stop trying to use logic and science to prove the bible,for ur own good,however if u would wish to do so and accept that u would be completely logical in ur argument and not at some point start bringing up myths,then I would be interested in showing you the numerous scientific flaws the bible made

Isaiah 40:22 please read.

Bring it on sir. You will read it yourself. I will point to you where to read in the Bible.

darkchild64:
For the third time I must comment on this post of yours to show you just how flawed it is,u claim the bible says the earth is round but it was only decades ago that the scientists confirmed that,then I would ask,if that passage that the bible made that claim is clear and truly interpreted as what u said,how come since the time the bible was being written and compiled no one noted that while reading it,rather it was only a few decades ago (going by what u said ) that scientists established the earth is round,and why do u even blv that report,I mean we are talking about astrology,which we all know has theories that disprove the bible ,much less science generally. All christians are the same just like what Butterfly1on had said earlier. u christians would always try to use science to validate the bible,but when it comes to evolution and other stuff that negate the bible,u dismiss science immediately

Do scientists believe in the Bible? Do they even believe there's a creator?

NPComplete:
Lol. I like how halfwits come around to advice people on how to use their brain.

Confucius said, "when u stay long at the side of a river, even the body of ur enemies will flow by".
Given enough time any prophecy may seem to come to pass. Even Nostradamus prophecy just need time for something like that to occur. There are too many people and events in the world that if even u prophesy today and wait centuries, it will happen.
By the way, the Quran has been better at predicting some "scientific things" than the bible. Does that make the Quran true?

I've just wasted my on you. Peace. What is prediction in what I wrote. The Bible saying the earth is spherical before the scientist got to know is a prediction? You go school at all? Millions are mad but very few are roving.

NPComplete:
Now this is how you know someone who thinks. You have asked the right sensible questions that anyone who uses their brain has been asking.

The stories in the bible are just myths and folktales that has been adopted as canon. Nothing more.

This is the same kind of question I ask about virginity. Some Christians believe that the hymen was created for a special spiritual purpose and even take it further by comparing the breaking of the hymen to some sort of ritual or covenant. Then I ask: why do animals have hymen too? What spiritual purpose does it serve in them?

The religious mind is just crazy.

If the Bible is a story book, then the writers must have been damn good seers, because many things written thousands of years ago are happening now. You're one of the true stories... People who would contest the authenticity of the Bible. The Bible mentioned that the earth is spherical in shape many decades before scientists came realize it after decades of believing the earth is flat. Your scientists used to believe the earth is on the back of three giant elephants, later, they got to know that the earth hangs on nothing.... Guess what, that book you called a story book has said it, even before science that the earth hangs on nothing.

Use your brain well sir.

What kind of dumb OP is this

You said you wanted to use scriptures to back up what your about to say yet there's no biblical reference to the 3 question.

Does the Bible said Adam and eve didn't go to hell fire?? ?

I hope calling me dumb has made you feel better.

Our problem is that we don't read to understand in this part of the world.

But to answer your question, Yes, Adam and Eve didn't go to Hellfire. They went to hell (grave). Remember Genesis 3:19 "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."

They returned to the dust, they died and were buried.

Question 3 answered. Attempt one and two.

frosbel2:
"I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not give my glory to anyone else" - Isaiah 42:8

Ask a Christian who his or her Lord is and before you finish the sentence they will abruptly say, in a quite jolting manner - JESUS! Jesus of course.

Got to any church on Sunday and 90% of the songs and praise go to JESUS, testimony to JESUS and JESUS is exalted while the name of the Almighty Creator, God who alone is God is scantily mentioned.

Christians worship JESUS 24x7 even though Jesus said :

Jesus replied, "The Scriptures say, 'You must worship the LORD your God and serve only him.'" - Luke 4:8

The Bible is littered with statements emphasizing the supremacy of God and further buttressing the fact that there is none else besides him in the SINGULAR and not a Trinity.

"I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not give my glory to anyone else" - Isaiah 42:8

God emphatically says that he will not give his GLORY to anyone else and in my opinion, this also includes the MAN Jesus.

God cannot say one thing in the Old Testament ( so called ) and then say something else in the New Testament.

One of ten commandment reads thus ;
"You shall have no other gods before Me."

I fear that Christianity has exchanged the worship of the ONE GOD for a man JESUS and may be continually and unwittingly committing the sin of IDOLATRY.

Think about it and examine your faith to see if you have erred

The problem here is, the Lord. First, Lord is not a name. It's a title and even if Lord is a name, will Almighty God share a name with anyone else? Even God is not a name, it is a title. God has a personal name which in Hebrew is Yaweh and in English, Jehovah.
King James caused all this wahala when he replaced Jehovah with Lord. The biggest pastors in Nigeria are blind to this fact.

Hellfire has been taught in the Christendom for ages as a place of Torment for sinners. OK. Nobody is going to criticize anybody.

We want to follow facts from the Bible. No use of bad language here. God should oversee this discussion we are about to have.

Pls whatever you want to comment should be hearsays, it should be well backed by the holy Bible.


To start with. If hell really is a place of torment, then let's answer these questions :
1. Why did our Lord Jesus Christ went there?
2. Why did the righteous man Job prayed to go there?
3. Why didn't Adam and Eve who committed the original sin go there.

Your answers pls.

Pls use your Bible to answer the questions. If you can't pls don't comment. Just observe.

Peacefullove:
I know you will end up putting ropes in your own leg as you explain.

Verse 13 - The SEA gave up the dead in it .

Hell also gave up the dead in it .

bravo! Since both are delivered separately , Gentleman, So then not everybody goes to hell , right ?

Those who died in the SEA are not in hell , are they ?

No matter how wicked a person is. so far they died in the sea, they will never go to hell

This mentions nothing about ressurected bodies joining the dead in hell as you firstly opined , Infact according to this verse hell isn't a place of punishment since not everyone goes there

So I still remain on the point, Which Body is been talked about in Matthew 10:28 which MeN can Kill ?



Am asking if the body in Matthew 10:28 is this present fleshly body OR the ressurected one .

if you say its the ressurected one, Please answer : Can men kill the ressurected body ? Matt 10:28



Which Body will God send to hell ? the one men can kill ?




Oh, the man Jesus never died for anyone ?

cc: nelsonoba

Be it someone died in the sea o or fish chop am ooo it was all summed up as GRAVE/Hell which is to be destroyed in the lake of fire. Meaning death will be no more and the dead will resurrect. Shikenah

enilove:
Op , thank you very much may God continue to bless you , in the name of Jesus.

I think @frosbel2 need to play the videos , may be it would change his unbelief .

A sensible person won't even play this your useless film at all. Hellfire is a teaching from the demons to make humans fear God in a morbid way and to see him as cruel. Hell and fire has nothing in common until some demon directed pastors infused the lie into Christianity. Islam later adopted it. Useless lie.

What is the original definition of Hell?
before 900; Middle English, Old English hel(l); cognate with Old High German hell(i)a (German Hölle), Old Norse hel, Gothic halja; akin to Old English helan to cover, hide, and to hull

In Hebrew and Greek Hell means grave.

If the original meaning of hell is to cover, hide or hull, we can now see when the Bible said Jesus went to hell I.e, he died and he was covered, hidden in the Cave before he was resurrected on the 3day.

We all remember Job, the faithful man. When he was going through so much pains, he prayed to go to hell. If hell was a place of torment, why would a suffering man in pains pray to go there? Of course Job knew that hell is grave for the dead.

Your Bible in Revelations said "and hell was thrown into the lake of fire" so God take fire destroy fire? Don't let any man interpret the Bible to you. Study the Bible yourself and it will interpret itself to you.

God is Love. He can never burn anyone not even a sinner for eternity in fire. He's not a wicked God.

Even the lake of fire mentioned in the Bible is symbolic. The Bible says it means "the second death" abi, how can you throw grave inside fire? Fire symbolizes either destruction or refinement in the Bible.

Pls ask questions. We will answer with your Bible.

Delectable Nollywood Actress and filmmaker, Maryam Charles has presented her own opinion on the trending sex doll topic, and she is of the school of thought that the dolls can never take the place of a “real girlfriend.” And broke guys cannot even afford the sex doll.

In a post she made on her Instagram today, Maryam Charles says the sex dolls are not even meant for guys that are not loaded as each costs a whooping N800,000.

Maryam Charles also stated the things that a real girlfriend can do, but a doll can't

She says:



http://lailasnews.com/broke-guys-cannot-buy-a-sex-doll-actress-maryam-charles/

The doll won't cheat. It won't demand for expensive clothes and jewelries. No high bride price. She can't bring home stds. She won't eat Chinese food. Most of all she can't die.

They are already threatened.

But truth is my Abike is real and she's the only one for me.

2. Says a Muslim can make heaven without Jesus


37:03


Says if a Muslim loves God and his neighbor, he won't need Jesus Christ to make heaven. He quoted Luke 10:25-28


25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”

27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[c]; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[d]”

28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”



Truly, Jesus made that statement and I will prove to you why even though that statement might seem like an alternative other than Jesus as the way to God, you still can't follow that 'alternative' without ending up as his follower. Freeze is trying to use that statement as a way of saying that Jesus is not the only way to God and that there are other ways e.g Muhammad and perhaps other Biblical prophets before Jesus.

Now, if loving your neighbor and God is an alternative way of making heaven and that a Muslim can make heaven without Jesus (i.e if he follows that way), let's see if such a person can follow that way and still remain a Muslim.

First and foremost, who is your neighbor? Merriam-Webster Dictionary defined it to mean one living or located near another. The person living next to you, be it Christian, Jews, Muslim, Buddhist, Pagan, Atheist etc is your neighbor.

Now, how does the Quran which a Muslim believes in tells him to treat his neighbor?



Quran (48:29) - Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves.


Sahih Muslim (2167) - "Allah's Messenger said: Do not greet the Jews and the Christians before they greet you and when you meet any one of them on the roads force him to go to the narrowest part of it."

Quran (5:51) - "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people."


Sahih Bukhari 1:8:427

When the last moment of the life of Allah's Apostle came he started putting his 'Khamisa' on his face and when he felt hot and short of breath he took it off his face and said, "May Allah curse the Jews and Christians for they built the places of worship at the graves of their Prophets." The Prophet was warning (Muslims) of what those had done.


Ibn Kathir v.2 p.213 - No believer shall kill any believer for any non-believer. Nor shall he help any non-believer against a believer.

Quran (3:28) - "Let not the believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah: except by way of precaution, that ye may Guard yourselves from them..."

Quran (53:29) - "Therefore shun those who turn away from Our Message and desire nothing but the life of this world."

Quran (8:39) - "And fight with them until there is no more fitna (disorder, unbelief) and religion is all for Allah"



How can you be a Muslim and make heaven when being a Muslim means you still believe in the Quran verses above that can make you brutal to your neighbor?


There's no way you can love your neighbor without actually taking Jesus as your Lord and Savior. He is the only teacher that has ever told mankind to forgive those who offend them. He's the only one that has given a guideline on how to love your neighbor which includes forgiving them when they offend you.


If you forgive your neighbor who offends you, it means you are actually following the way of Jesus (Mark11:24). If you pray for those who persecute you, it means you are following the way set by Jesus (Mathew5:44). If you help your neighbor without hoping to get a favor in return, it means you are actually following the example set by the good Samaritan in the parable told by the same Jesus (Luke 10:25-37). The moment you believe his words that says ''love your neighbor'' and you follow his guidelines which are the only way towards achieving that, then it means you BELIEVE in him thereby making you a candidate of eternal life.


John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever BELIEVES in him shall not perish but have ETERNAL LIFE.



The moment you start to love Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Atheists, Pagans etc, you start to incline towards the teachings and ways of Jesus Christ and his disciples in Hebrews 12:14 which says ''Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord''. Read the verse carefully, you will see that you can see God without making peace with all men.


To be able to love your neighbor perfectly, you have to have Christ in you. Without Christ in you and you in him, you wont be able to achieve that.


John 15:5

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.


Without Jesus you can't produce the fruit of the spirit which is Love and other things that can enable you love your neighbor.


Galatians 5:22-23

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.


Now, can you be a Muslim and still follow peace with all men? Going by the Quran verses above, the answer is NO. See what Muhammad even told Muslims.


Sahih al-Bukhari Book 52 Hadith 176
"The Day of Resurrection will not arrive until the Moslems make war against the Jews and kill them, and until a Jew hiding behind a rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: 'Oh Moslem, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!'"

Sahih Muslim 19:4366

It has been narrated by 'Umar b. al-Khattib that he heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) say: I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula and will not leave any but Muslim.


Where is the love for their Jewish and Christian neighbors? Can you now see that a person who remains a Muslim and follows the teachings of Muhammad can never make heaven cos those teachings can never make him love his neighbors?

I disagree with you on this one. Answer this question. We agree that Jesus is the way but how?

And for the intellect in the house... How do these negative prophecies link with the extraordinary turnaround? Ahhhhhh

THIS ARTICLE HOW NECESSARY AND COST EFFECTIVE IS OWNERSHIP OF JETS BY MEGA CHURCHES?


#1. The Efficiency Factor:

First of all, how efficient are the commercial services of the Nigerian aviation system? This answer is an obvious NO and has been so through the years. Is there anyone reading this in Nigeria, who is a regular air traveller and whose flight has never been delayed or who has never experienced some form of disappointment? In 2011, Oyedepo visited 27 countries for missionary purposes. In a particular week, I monitored his movement from sunday evening when he left Lagos for Kenya till friday evening when he arrived back in Lagos, Nigeria for a night ministration. He was in Zambia, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania and Botswana (if my memory serves me right) in a spate of five days and was back to minister at the night session in Nigeria. This would have been absolutely impossible using commercial aviation means in Africa. No wonder Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo pointed out that as close as Liberia or Togo and other West African countries were to Nigeria, it was easier to get a commercial flight to London than to our neighbours here in Africa.

#2. The Ignorance, busy-body and Poverty Mentality Factor:

Secondly, when missionary establishments of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s flew in white missionaries on jets or helicopters, they were welcomed by the Nigerian locals and it was an acceptable sight. Why? They were whites. One of the greatest issues with missionary owned jets in Africa is the poverty mentality. Today, several billionaires in Nigeria are celebrated because they own jets. Young musicians and artistes are also celebrated for wearing large "bling blings" and "Chopping their money" on private jets...but when indigenously established missionary organizations, whose only mission is to save your soul are discovered to own these same aircraft to facilitate easy air trips, every busybody wants to have a say and criticize, sometimes very insultive....including those who have either never stepped foot in a church, never dropped a dime in offerings to God or have never even embraced the commandments of the Bible.

As much as criticism of missionary owned jets may be "religiously and politically" correct, I make bold to say they are scripturally incorrect. We are called covenant children of Abraham; what does the Bible say about Father Abraham? Genesis 13:2 "And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold." Genesis 24:1 "And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the Lord had blessed Abraham in all things." I am also very glad that after the death of Jesus Christ on the cross, it took a wealthy man to come get his body and put him in a befitting tomb. Also before his death when Judas was grumbling about the Alabaster Box that should have been given to the poor, the Bible had this to say "Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him, Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? This he said, not that he CARED for the poor; but because he was a THIEF, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein." John 12;4-6.

If the argument is really about giving to the poor, why not also ask all the oil moguls in the country, all businessmen, musicians and all other owners to sell their jets and give to the poor? Obviously the emphasis isn't about the poor but anger and envy that wealth seems to be moving to the church...unfortunately, it hasn't even started. The Bible is the constitution of the christian. if what is in the Bible hurts your feelings, I render no apologies....let God be true and every man be a liar. Romans 3:4.

#3. Travel Frequency, Time, Administrative and Global Reach Factor:

For record purposes, as at the last time I checked and I believe I am current, the christian organizations who presently own aircraft in Nigeria are the Redeemed Christian Church of God which has branches in over 190 countries, the Living Faith Church Worldwide with branches in over 60 countries and 'Shiloh' online presence in over 170 countries, Christ Embassy with 'Rhapsody' presence in over 180 countries and branches in at least 4 continents as well as the immediate past CAN President, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor led Word of Life Bible Church. Pastor Ayo began to broadcast to the world before any of the afore mentioned pastors, back in 1987.

I ask another question; is it true that the leaders of some of these organizations travel regularly around the world? Do you have any idea what the itinerary of the Adeboyes, Oyedepos, Oritsejafors and Oyakhilomes entail?


Again it was Pastor Adeboye that said “there are things you need. When you have to oversee churches in 160 countries, you can’t do that on a bicycle,” Bishop Mike Okonkwo in an interview seemed to be in disagreement with some pastors listed here, the press excitedly tried to instigate him the more by asking about the ownership of jets. He explained to them however how he had once travelled to the Central African Republic for a programme but had to wait idly for almost a week for a return flight to Nigeria through Cameroon...... Any serious man or organization has respect for their time. The Church is one of such. Pastor Sam Adeyemi said once that all you need to grow old on time is to be a regular commercial flier on long trips.

#4. The Maintenance Cost Factor:

"If you are rich and desire to become poor quickly, own an aircraft." Pastor Enoch A Adeboye.

[b]Very many people do not understand what it takes to maintain an aircraft, especially in a country like Nigeria where aviation is controlled almost purely at the Federal level. How many people remember the issues with payment of parking fees for the Nigerian Presidential jet in 2009/10 when President Yar' Adua was flown to Saudi Arabia? Large sums of money (probably in millions of dollars) were paid for the aircraft which sat idly at the Riyadh King Khalid International Airport. One organization which used to charter aircraft frequently for movement to her crusade venues around the globe once paid about #75,000,000 (Seventy Five Million naira) annually for parking her aircraft at Bristow helicopters in Lagos.

Those who usually tout the example of the Pope who charters and flies Alitalia do not even realise that his accumulated flight expenses along with his entourage in just 30 flights will buy a nice jet. Let me break it down. Is it better to buy a car or charter a cab so expensive that you would have spent the cost of that car in just 30 drops?[/b]

My question again is, is it better to park your aircraft idly at the airport and pay these heavy parking sums to the government from church offerings not forgetting servicing, repairs and maintenance costs or lease them to aviation companies which in turn return profit at no cost to the church? Rev Gabriel Oduyemi bought a jet for church use. I do not need to tell the story of what happened to that aircraft but remember that it was the same aircraft that Omotola Jolade Ekeinde's pilot husband bought as 'scrap". Lest I forget, the average Captain in the aviation industry earns $10,000 (N3,600,000 or N3.6m) monthly. For two captains, that will be $20,000 (N7.2m) monthly or $240,000 (N86.2m) annually, not forgetting travel and landing allowances, hotel bills for the pilots etc. Young pilots need to accumulate hours and hours of flight so they opt for commercial planes instead of private jets who do not fly that regularly. This means that owning a private jet leaves you with almost no option than to hire experienced or veteran captains. This of course means you pay well for it. Luke 16:8 "And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation WISER THAN THE CHILDREN OF LIGHT".


Fortunately, the children of light are wiser now. They lease out their jets when not in use and avoid incurring unnecesary and exorbitant costs while the aircraft remains active even when not in use. Winners’ Chapel stretched this point. Among the first generation of missionary aircraft owners, she started leasing out her aircraft to EMS Speedpost once she realised what the costs of maintenance entailed and with due notice, she would use same jet for her missionary trips eventually an oil company also leased the jet and had to pay compensation after an accident. The church decided to buy another aircraft and this time built a hangar at the airport in Lagos. The hangar has space for 6 jets at a time. Now she does not rely on "church income" to maintain the hangar but runs it as a separate concern, funding itself. This is the line Church jet owners should be towing. I will quickly add at this point that for large organizations, it is cheaper to own aircraft than to keep paying for commercial air tickets or for charter services. If leasing a missionary aircraft will save costs and preserve the life of that aircraft for longer use, then that is simply the way to go

I don't know much you were paid for this trash. You're nothing but a brainwashed Arrow.
Dyu know why Apostle Paul wrote more books in the Bible? Cos those books are mostly letters to people in different lands. He appointed capable hands to oversee the affairs in different places. You Papas travel unnecessarily. They want to be worshipped. They always want to be in the center of attraction. They enjoy the glam and all the accolades. They are enjoying the attention meant for God and Jesus Christ. This is why they have their pictures in all the church adverts.

Warren Buffet said anyone that says he needs a private jet just to keep appointments is a liar. See the attached picture.
