Christianity EtcRe: Tower Of Babel (biblical Narration) by MightySparrow: 3:46am On Jan 26, 2023

If Adam and Eve (first human couple) spoke one language then it's logical to conclude that their descendants were speaking the same language! smiley

MaxInDHouse:
He's just slamming his head on a wall without any gain. In Islam our belief is that Adam and Eve were the first human couple so they must have spoken to each other and certainly it's the same language. So if they're the ancestors of all mankind definitely there was a time that everyone on this planet spoke the same language.

AntiChristian:
The Tower of Babel Genesis 11:1-9

11 Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. 2 As people moved eastward,[a] they found a plain in Shinar[b] and settled there.

3 They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. 4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”

5 But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building. 6 The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”

8 So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. 9 That is why it was called Babel[c]—because there the Lord confused the language of the whole world. From there the Lord scattered them over the face of the whole earth.

1.Was there truly a time when the whole world was speaking a language?
2. Can Crude Building with mortar, tar and brick ever reach heaven?
3. The speech ascribed to God was inappropriate. How can God come down and confuse their language when what they were trying to do was even impossible?

It seems this story never happened in reality or probably figurative!
Good thinking. What do you suppose the language spoken in the Garden of Eden? Why are there many languages today,?

Omo, this question hard oo but I'll do it this way.

I'll keep FOOD because man can't live without it.

I'll keep FOOTBALL because FOOTBALL is life to me as it's written in my signature 😊⚽❤️

(Seeing this Ronaldo and Messi pic sef dey give massive joy)

Now, it's between MUSIC and WOMEN 🤔 now let me break it down so I'll finally conclude on which to delete.

MUSIC helps to ease pain, improve our mood, gives peace, inspiration, motivation, it also makes our journey sweet (Can't imagine travelling without playing songs with my ear pods on) oh, yes 😊 MUSIC DEY GINGER! 😎 Let me put it that way as an African man yunno 😉

WOMEN: Hmmm 🤔 Only sex that this people have to offer oo (Unless you meet a girl that's not Jezebelic, yes Jezebel the wicked and evil woman 😹 or Kim Kardashian daughters.

And even the sex sef, it's not only you they're giving 😒😹

Plus them go unnecessarily bill you join and rip you off your hard earned money. (I mean the Jezebelic ones oo not all girls before NL girls go kill me here) 😏

So, I'll delete WOMEN 😑 and E dey pain me as I delete them ooo 😭😂😭😂

FOOD ✅
FOOTBALL ✅
MUSIC ✅
WOMEN ❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌




MODIFIED: 36+ MENTIONS MEHN 😅😅 I REMOVED WOMEN NOT BECAUSE I DONT LIKE THEM.

I LOVE WOMEN BUT MY SANITY AND PEACE OF MIND IS MORE IMPORTANT PLUS I NO WON MISS HEAVEN.

IF YOU STAY WITH WOMAN, NA SOSO SIN YOU GO DEY SIN 😓

HEAVENLY RACE? 🤔 "I NO GO TIRE"
Without women you don't have posterity.
They are necessary evil.

One of my friends is currently working in Nasarawa for 120k and he got a job opening for 300k in lekki.

He's finding it hard to choose one because he has not stayed in Lagos before.

Considering the cost of living of both states, which one do you think is okay?

How much is rent around lekki free zone?
There are more opportunities in Lagos. Go there. This one will lead to better offers in the future.

What about those without jobs still hustling in Lagos. Be adventurous for once Bro.
CareerRe: Which Is More Important, The Course You Studied Or The Result You Came Out With? by MightySparrow: 3:31pm On Jan 25, 2023

Is the Course you studied more important than the result you came out with?

For example: Mr A studied Medicine and came out with 3rd class degree.

Mr B studied Botany and came out with first class degree.

Does Mr A still have a higher chance of getting employed than Mr B?

Christianity EtcRe: Using "Foolishness" And "Weakness" For God Is Blasphemy! by MightySparrow: 3:19pm On Jan 25, 2023
AntiChristian:
You should bring yours first!
Hosea 12:2-4
[2]The LORD hath also a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will he recompense him.
[3]He took his brother by the heel in the womb, and by his strength he had power with God:
[4]Yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and made supplication unto him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spake with us;


He wrestled in prayer and supplication and weeping, though, God would punish him for his sins, he prevail in prayers.


The reason we have a slogan among christians today, ' Prevailing Prayer'

Until you are inside, you cannot understand Christianity.


I still maintain that hazy picking of scriptures will always bring confusion.

AntiChristian:
It has no meaning than the comparison of God with humans!

God is never used with those words!
Did you honestly read the arguments in the scriptures quoted? The Bible is structured and organized. Your understanding of a passage is reading the ' thoughts' not picking a word or set of words.

Elsewhere in the 'Prophets' ( I deliberately leave out reference, if truly you know Bible), the wrestling of Jacob is his prayers - praying out his life because of imminent annihilation by his brother, Esau whom he had wronged.

Dó you really know Bible?
Christianity EtcRe: Using "Foolishness" And "Weakness" For God Is Blasphemy! by MightySparrow: 7:23am On Jan 25, 2023
AntiChristian:
For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
1 Corinthians 1:25

In any sense, we don't ever ascribe foolishness or weakness to God.

This is Blasphemy.

Except the "God" above is the God Jacob wrestled with and won below:

Jacob Wrestles With God
That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female servants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions. So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. 25 When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.”

But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
The man asked him, “What is your name?”

“Jacob,” he answered.
Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel,[a] because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”
Genesis 32:22-28
What is your honest meaning in the 'context' of the passages quoted? Would you shed some light.

I enjoy your scholarship bro.

If this guy wasn't English no team would employ him,but just watch in a few seasons another team will employ him and viola, they will find themselves sliding into the relegation zone.
grin grin grin

Final thought: As good as Manchester City and Arsenal are this season they should not tempt fate and employ Frank because naa relegation zone straight. No brake.
In fact give Frank, Haaland as his main striker and Messi as supplier, naa RELEGATION straight! grin grin grin
He took a bad job. Carlo Ancelotti could not handle the team. A manager with track record of success. Lampard should still be learning the art of coaching anyways..
Christianity EtcRe: But The Mustard Seed Is Not The Smallest Of All Seeds... by MightySparrow: 3:58pm On Jan 23, 2023
AntiChristian:
All of the sentences are correct.
1. The Mustard seed is not the smallest seed common in Palestine as at the time of Jesus!
2. Mustard Seeds don't grow into trees!
The word used in Greek is lachanōn translated as garden plant can actually mean an herb, garden plant or vegetable.

A. Just because it is tall does not mean it is a tree.
B. It does not even look remotely like a tree.
You miss it Sir! He was saying that although mustard seed is the smallest seed that would produce a big tree. Smallest and big/might are relative.


You could google a mustard tree not shrub.
Anyways, that is not even the thrust of the parable. You are not expected to understand because:

And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
Mark 4:11


and

[b]1 Corinthians 2:9-16
[9]But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
[10]But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
[11]For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
[12]Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
[13]Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
[14]But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
[15]But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
[16]For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ/.

Is it only half of the sentence is correct? Is there any correction between the two parts of the sentence?

Why are you dodging questions if you are a Bible scholar?

You show abysmal ignorance in your posts?
