SIRTee15: Genesis 22.13 Maybe I should read the book critically b4 calling it a myth. 13 Then Abraham looked up and saw a ram caught by its horns in a thicket. So he took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering in place of his son. 14 Abraham named the place Yahweh-Yireh (which means “the Lord will provide”). To this day, people still use that name as a proverb: “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.”
This are Jewish books, reading them in their original language is the best. It says Adonai.
FxMasterz: Will you please point to that Bible verse where Yahweh declared Himself as one of the sons of God? I'll be waiting earnestly for this.
Which of your forefathers was taken as slave in Egypt, that will explain why you are Yahweh inheritance.
Deuteronomy 4.19-20,
“And beware lest you raise your eyes toward heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all of the peoples under all of the whole heaven. But the Lord has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of his own inheritance, as you are this day.”
Op, your ignorance is like laughing gas 😂 ⛽ I can't even stop laughing,. You don't want eternity right ? Like though it was served to you on a platter? You MUST work out your own salvation, just in case you later reverse and decided that you now want to live eternity
If you had the power to live indefinitely, you won't continue going on living indefinitely. You'll eventually get bored.
Obiedun: I expect both of you to be neutral. I am not in support of any of the opposing side.
You are the one that's not neutral and assume I am a Muslim for speaking against the barbaric acts in the Jewish books. And Palestines predates Islam and Christianity.
In the Torah, the killing of Canaanites is considered a virtue, a good deed that their Israelite God, Yahweh will reward. According to Jewish Scriptures and traditions, there are Mitzvah, translated as Commandments, that a Jew must follow. "Mitzvah" is also commonly used to refer to a deed performed to fulfill such a commandment. According to religious tradition (Talmud), there are 613 such commandments, although some opinions suggest there may be thousands.
Today's mitzvah will focus on the 187th, which states, "He commanded us to kill the seven nations that dwelled in the Land of Canaan and to destroy them, as they are the root of idolatry and its first base. He says, 'You must surely annihilate them,' and 'You shall not allow any inhabitants of the Seven Nations of Canaan to live.". These seven Canaanite tribes are the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites (Jerusalem).
Certain verses explicitly encourage and advocate for the killing of Canaanites, and waging war against them is regarded as a mitzvah, a commandment. This commandment is known as "milchemes mitzvah,"/Offensive War, it is explicitly named by Yahweh in Deuteronomy 7:1-2 and Deuteronomy 20:16-18. 1. Not to keep alive any individual of the seven Canaanite nations (Deuteronomy 20:16). 2. To exterminate the seven Canaanite nations from the land of Israel (Deuteronomy 20:17).
Even though the seven Canaanite nations no longer exist, their descendants, which includes the Palestinians, are still present. The word Palestine derives from Philistia, the name given by Greek writers to the land of the Philistine(Peleshet). In the Exodus from Egypt, Yahweh promised the Israelites they would take Canaan as their home: “I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run. I will…drive the…Canaanites… out of your way…I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the River” (Exodus 23:27-28).
This means that the mitzvah to kill them is still considered valid and mandatory, as it is playing out today just as it did back then.
So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their forefathers, and they took possession of it and settled there. (Joshua 21:43).
"The crowd always wants you to agree with them. The crowd does not want to grant you freedom. The crowd does not tolerate individuals. The crowd murders individuals. It seeks to completely destroy the individual.
The mob desires slaves, whether they are Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Jewish, or Jain. It doesn't matter. The way of the mob is to utterly annihilate you, to wipe you out. You should not remain as you are; the mob should enter you. You should speak the language of the crowd, follow the crowd's principles, repeat the scriptures of the crowd, do as the crowd says, and walk as the crowd wants you to walk. If the crowd goes to the temple, then you should go to the temple; if it goes to the mosque, you should go to the mosque. If the mob sets fire to the mosque, you should set fire to it; if they break idols in the temple, you should also break the idols. Whatever the mob does, you should do as well. And people are so eager to join the crowd.
Why?
The more you become one with the crowd, the less your feeling of responsibility and answerability.
Psychologists say that the crimes a mob commits, an individual can never commit."
Please think for yourself just for a MOMENT. why will anything "almighty" belittle itself and be worshipped by some people in the middle east, is there ever a time in Yoruba mythology where "olorun" was worshipped as a storm god or any other god by any tribe.
Yahweh is a nonentity wanderer/desert god that was adopted by the isrealites and made a NATIONAL GOD, that's why he is fighting with other local gods in the middle east. This is so GLARING.
You are not an israelite, THINK PLEASE. The isrealites made a covenant with him, that's their own god.
[quote author= post=126475531]Have u asked your parents. See what u wrote about them below:
If [[/quote]Like I said, my parents are not Jewish slaves like yours. SIRTee15 parents are of any worth will he be abusing other people's parent, doomed vagabond.
That's what you get when slavery and uselessness runs in SIRTee15 lineage.
SIRTee15: He's lost. I gave up on him the day he justified sex change in children. He claim children are only aware of themselves as a person and we adults are the one pushing girl/boy concept into their heads. U can imagine such reprobate thinking. I must say atheism is a disease of the mind.
Even you know that hell is farce that's why you can lie this shamelessly. Like Yahweh like His slaves.
SIRTee15: Yahweh was known as a deity in the levantine region even before Israel nation came into existence. There was some knowledge of Yahweh in the mesopotamian region where Abraham came from, Yahweh wasn't the main deity and was generally viewed as a fringe/lesser god. Laban, Abraham's nephew worshipped Yahweh amongst his other idols because that's what he knew. Nahor, Terah and their ancestors may have known Yahweh is some capacity but not fully.
The name Israel comes from EL, and he was the main deity giving inheritance to Yahweh and his other children. Yahweh is not a Cannanite god, he was worshipped by the midianite before adopted by the Israelites.
FxMasterz: Simply because he disagrees, his first words to me are "mental psychosis'. You see why you must shun such a dark soul?
You should look up what mental psychosis means, it's common among BIBLICAL LITERALIST.
I am not here to convince you, so all these fake loving you Christians do just because you wants to attract someone to your beliefs, I am not interested.
You should be thankful, one implies the other, I have a "dark soul", how will you be able to contrast with your own "white soul"? Saints need Sinners, they compare themselves with them always.
FxMasterz: Avoid any discussion with maynman at all cost. The discussion usually lead no where. He's very rude and immature. A very bitter soul who always seek to insult and abuse Christians during discussions. He'll then come back to say you started it first when you accuse him of being toxic.
A simple talk such as 'ask your parents' which could have delivered such a response as ', I'm mature and knowledgeable enough to unravel matters by myself. Why should I ask my parents?' Or, I need an answer from you, not from my parents' is what led him to start calling your parents Jewish slaves.
The other day, I was discussing with him and told him about a babyfish caught by Russians in the 90s during the gulf war. I actually thought he'll be aware of the incident but he claimed nothing of such happened. I told him that we could retrieve the information from the archives of national dailies or he could ask elders around. He replied me that his elders are not liars like mine. Can you imagine? Every conversation I have ever had with him always end with insults. He would've even bulge if you're not replying him back with insults. He'll continue until you're pushed to the wall. He's such a dark soul with a very devilish mind. That shouldn't come as a surprise since he's godless, he cannot be any better. However, I must admit that there are atheists who behave more maturely and engage in mutually respectful conversations on platform. Maynman is not the case. After a few lines of discussion, you'll find out he's not worth the engagement. Shun him from henceforth.
Eye Service. That does not mean you are not EMPTY. If not that you have been indoctrinated from birth. Why would you base your life on Jewish mythologies talking about their cultures just as we have ours.
I was reading Matthew, and I got to chapter 2 verse 2-4. I asked myself, am I a jew? So what If someone wants to be king of Jews, how does that affect me here in Nigeria?
Think, it's so glaring. It was at bethel, your Joshua was libating upon STONES.
FxMasterz: Now, is Yahweh a desert God simply because He's worshipped by desert people (Edomites, Moabotes and Ammonites) ? No. Note that Israel, Edom, Moab and Ammon were brethren. They all worship Yahweh but have varying understanding of Him. Each depict Him differently. Abraham was the grandfather of both Edom (Esau) and Israel (Jacob). Abraham was the father figure of Lot through whom the Moabites and the Ammonites descended. All serve the same God through the influence of Abraham but have varying knowledge of Him. Some of them even have a depiction of Him as an idol. All of these nations were Canaanites. So, the depiction of Yahweh as a Canaanite God is well understood. However He's not.
Mental psychosis, your god is an isrealite god just as Zeus is a Greek god, you have been praying to a dummy idol.
There's a city in Palestine called Jerusalem. There are still others like Bethlehem, Galiliee, etc. These are very ancient cities. If Israel had no land in Palestine, why do these lands have Hebrew names? Why is it that Biblical sites and artifacts are bring uncovered there by archeology. Perhaps I didn't understand your point. Kindly clarify.
It's understandable if the kings of Egypt called the Israelites Sashu and wanderers. They were actually wanderers when the came into Egypt. They had no nation according to the Bible. They were 70 in number who came in from Luz in Mesopotamia. They wandered until they settled briefly in Luz, also called Bethel. During the seven year famine, they found their way into Egypt as a family of 70 people. Jacob their father, an old man at the time was also in the company. So, a family that later grew into a large population after long stay in a place would certainly be given a name by the indigenes. It's brainer that the Egyptians call them Sashu. They were wanderers before coming to Egypt. Became sojourners while in Egypt, and became Israelites after leaving Egypt.
Now, is Yahweh a desert God simply because He's worshipped by desert people (Edomites, Moabotes and Ammonites) ? No. Note that Israel, Edom, Moab and Ammon are brethren. They all worship Yahweh but have varying understanding of Him. Each depict Him differently. Abraham was the grandfather of both Edom (Esau) and Israel (Jacob). Abraham was the father figure of Lot through whom the Moabites and the Ammonites descended. All serve the same God through the influence of Abraham but have varying knowledge of Him. Some of them even have a depiction of Him as an idol. All of these nations were Canaanites. So, the depiction of Yahweh as a Canaanite God is well understood. However He's not.
SIRTee15: My primary source is the Septuagint that was written 250 yrs after the said event.
What's the sources of the Septuagint?
The reason why it was called Septuagint was because it represented number "70" representing the scholars that interpreted it now that we know that wasn't the case and there was no 70 scholars, who are the people that interpreted it, which text did they use? Think, Yahweh worshipper.
SIRTee15: What do u think they depicting when they say someone ate grass. Can someone in his sane mind eat grass. A Babylonian king was in that state of mind.
Who are the people saying it? Which mad person have you seen eat grass? Send me a link of where it has been observed that eating grass is a common trait among insane people.
