Legendary WWE Legend, The Undertaker has reportedly repented and given his life to Christ. As the Bible says in Luke 15:7, “… there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.”

For this reason, Christians all over the world are happy that the Wrestling legend has converted to their religion.

The famous Wrestler Mark Calaway, known as “The Undertaker”, also known by the surname of “Satan”, gave his life to Christ in November 2021, according to the reports.

I watched the actual interview and I suggest you do the same. He did that since early last year.
Seems his wife guided (let me not say forced) him into it.

As long as they can accept a person like the undertaker,I respect such church.
But i hope they dont let his celebrity status become an avenue to make money off of him.

If truly his heart is in it, they should be concerned about properly discipling him and baptise him with the Holyspirit.

I believe God has unique ways he deals with people.
But most pastors don't want to allow God do his work they want to the the work for God which is what religion is.

MaxInDHouse:
Thank you Mr Born Again Atheist!

E pain am.

MaxInDHouse:
Keep searching for believers in your story!

Romans conquered Israel and destroyed Jerusalem so how can they now logical do you think it sounds saying the conqueror created a God to be worshiped in the name of the nation they destroyed (conquered)

Even the most stupid person on this planet will laugh at such idea!

No wonder you're the only one laughing.

MindHacker9000:
No where in the Old Testament did GOD promises to send HIS son to be crucified for our sins. GOD Forgave The People Of Nineveh Without Waiting For Jesus' Crucifixion. The Roman Royal family, The Flavians created the Jesus that is being preached today. Watch these well documented videos with historical records to find out for yourself.

Israel was a war zone during the time of Jesus till Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 AD as the Jews revolted against Roman occupation. Ask yourself why the capital of Christianity is in Rome?

According to Paul, it was kept a secret so that it would not be prevented. 1 Corinthians 2:8
None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory."

AntiChristian:
Jesus Christ didn't say he came to set people free from sin!



Adam's sin is his only. My sin is my sin! Even Jesus will carry his own cross!

How does this make sense to you?



What image of God is that and how do you describe it?

Why do you think Jesus came?

StJohnofChrist:
Greetings brother.
The Word "contradiction" shouldn't be used. Rather we see translation issues and readers' lack of contextual and exegetical reading.

This excuse can be used for any other religious book.
How then can you determine that which is true?

tctrills:
The bible is over 2000 years. It has gone from hand to hand before getting to us. Lots of editing and changes occurred. There are clearly many mistakes in the bible like the ones you stated but it also contains the words of God.

The bible says test all spirits.
This excuse can be made for any other religious book. So how do you determine that which is true?
If it's got errors and contradictions?

jesusjnr2020:
I know this may sound harsh, but the truth is that you don't really want to stop masturbation but only pretending you do, maybe because of the setbacks you've been having at the same time.

I couldn't believe my eyes really. You're doing yahoo, yahoo, going to the devil to help you to make money and doing "soap", whatever that means, and yet you expect the devil to lose his grip over you?

Even if you're not masturbating but you're succeeding in yahoo, yahoo, as your friends are, because of those devil agents you sought help from, you're in deep shiii, and trapped by the devil. You'd still need serious deliverance.

So don't think masturbation is your only problem. It's much worse than that.

If you're really sincere you want to be delivered, you need to repent and stop allowing your greed and desperation to make money to be luring you into the trap of devil. He would use you to play ping-pong and by the time he's through with you, you'd be sorry for yourself.

And if you love yourself, you should cut off from those ones you call friends. They're the wrong kind of company to keep. You have a lot to do to get out of this demonic web, but the onus lies on you really. If you're serious or not.

God bless.

Many Christian's are still masturbating though.
I don't know if you go to church, but in every church even fervent workers are still doing that.
I know cos while I was very fervent too, I was able to overcome it,many used to come to me to know how ibdid it cos it was their challenge.
These were youth leaders and choristers who could not stop masturbating. Some even doing worse than they could share.
I know a chorister and admin worker that told me she was a lesbian but she could not stop.

All I could tell them was Jesus delivered me from it. It was not by my power or might.

But truly I think it was my conviction that delivered me.
Your conviction is what is called faith. Whatever you believe is what will manifest.

Even then I stopped falling sick and that's because I believed the verses that said I should no longer fall sick or die young.

5he truth is it's your faith (conviction) that determines how much you experience the power of God.

Even a primary 6 year old understood this differences, how is it possible a grown up could not distill the differences?

He must surely be cocaine-mkpurumiri mad!

If a primary 6 year old can understand it, how come even you still don't.
Cos even Jesus said his disciples could not understand it until he sent the Helper (Holyspirit).

MindHacker9000:
Don't mind the guy and his colleagues here, they are only fighting to keep the source for their stomach, because they don't want their followers to know the truth about the Bible so that they can continue to milk their followers

You've said it all.
The Truth is that according to the bible, Jesus Christ set us all free from sin and bondage.

Adam made us all sinners without us having committed any sin.
And Jesus Christ (Second Adam) set us all free from sin without us performing any acts of righteousness.

According to David,he was a sinner even while in his mother's womb. This was because of the sin of Adam.
Thanks to Jesus, now we are the righteousness of God even while in the wombs of our mothers.
Hallelujah.

But be careful not to be carried away.
We shave to know we bear the image of God and so we have to be good and not evil.

It's blank cheque that you have to use wisely.

Steep:

before Gen 6vv6 something entered God's creation which is sin.

Acceptable.

God does not dwell in darkness rather psalm 18:11, 97 is metaphorically referring to the mystery of God's presence.

I beg to differ. Exodus 20:21
The people remained at a distance, while Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.

God does not try to know man's heart rather he tries and searched out his heart, which means he expose and judge the heart of man.

So many instances where God revealed the intent of people's hearts. Jesus telling Judas to quickly do what he must being a more obvious example.

non of this scriptures says God is unjust.

I'll pass on this.

If you are talking of jahpeth, God never command him neither did scripture say God received it, there is no where in the bible where God commanded human sacrifice, God forbade it in Israel.
Isaac was never sacrificed, it was a test to Abraham.

2 Kings 3:27 God honoured a human sacrifice even from the enemy camp against the Israelites.

God didn't lie, the spirit of lie that came up was an evil spirit, God permitted the evil spirit to decieve Ahab because Ahab loved false prophecies, God himself revealed the truth to Micah to tell Ahab that it was the spirit of lie that influenced the false prophets.

Potayto- Potahto. Same same.

Christ never used sword, Jesus telling his disciples to get a sword was symbolical.

You could have atleast shed more light on this symbolic sword. Cos the verse wasnt referring to the word of God.

matt6:5-6 was referring to private prayer not public prayer.

Don't get this too.

Adultery is not allowed, but an adulterer can be forgiven if he or she confesses and turn away from it.

No comment.

Jesus went into Galilee many times both before John was sent to prison and after he was arrested

Excusable. But then again the word of God is supposed to be inspired.

I hope these help you

You get an E for effort. Only interesting comment on the post so far.

Instead of hurling insults at a fellow Christian who asks genuine questions boggling his mind about the bible, isn't the proper thing to prefer the correct answers and help him come into the truth?

MaxInDHouse:
Ọ̀gbẹ́ni terrorist, people like you often listen to one side of the story and the nest thing is they pick up weapons to start killing people for their faith.
If someone died for his/her faith how would you know if you haven't listened to members of the group?
For your information, if you have any chance to listen to members of the Jewish community in the first century regarding what happened to Jesus, Judas or Stephen in fact you will be glad to die as a suicide bomber in the midst of thousands of Christians!

When was the last time if ever, have you heard of a non religious terrorist?

Only religion breeds terrorists and I'm gladly not religious.
Luckily JW does not teach religious killings otherwise you will clearly have murdered all your neigbours whom you're sadly forced to evangelise to.

Your extreme doctrines and restrictions has caused so much unnecessary deaths yet you confuse madness with persecution.

Explain how receiving donation from the corporate account of Catholic church is a sin?

While you're at it, I hope you can cite yourself as a case study if you do not receive salary from a worldly non-JW organisation and why receiving such would be a sin.

Your senselessness as individuals and especially as JW organisation knows no bounds.

MaxInDHouse:
You people are blind, deaf and dumb spiritually speaking so how can you distinguish between cooked up tales and facts?

Now listen to this:

Stephen became one of Jesus' disciples, he did everything Jesus commanded, as a faithful follower of Jesus, their rulers ordered all the people to excommunicated those believing in Jesus, Stephen and others stick to their beliefs in Jesus until he was arrested and stoned to death for his faith in Jesus.

So what do you say about Jesus the one who infused the teaching that led Stephen to his early grave? Matthew 10:28
What about the Apostles who kept the faith strong in the hearts of Jesus' disciples after the ascension of their leader? Acts 4:18; 5:28
What do you think about Stephen who died for his faith? Act 7:54-60

Judas Iscariot became one of Jesus' followers, later Jesus made him one of his closest confidants and the treasurer of the little group of 13 men, Judas often steal from the pus but he wasn't satisfied with all the money he stole, the love of money moved him to go and meet the Jewish religious leaders and demanded for huge some of money to hand over Jesus to them thinking Jesus will escape as usual.
Jesus was killed and Judas couldn't spend the money he collected due to guilty conscience so he committed suicide.

What do you think about Jesus who chose Judas as one of his closest confidants?
What about Judas who betrayed his friend?
What do you think people will say about the group whose prominent member committed suicide after making lots of money?

No wonder Paul said:

Make sure of all things; hold fast to what is fine! 1Thessalonians 5:21

I am strongly fighting the urge to stone you to death for comparing this to the case of Stephen.
Just go an hide your face and hopefully you will have your chance to be stoned to death or crucified or refuse blood transfusion too.
Cos apparently youre a fake JW because youre yet to be stoned to death.

nigerianrevolut:
I feel so sad. What are your thoughts?

While you feel sad for her, I feel more of anger against her and her JW society.
If Max knows what's good for him he should just ignore this thread.

This is what makes people turn atheists when you see how religion brainwashes people and turns them against reality just because of the promise of a heaven neither they or their ancestors have any idea of.

Imagine not accepting donation from a Christian denomination just because you have been brainwashed not to identify with them

This is not martyrdom or persecution but victimization by religion.

Congrats to the Super Eagles aldasame. Hopefully they will fly again.

AntiChristian:
aren't my views over 70% anti-Christian?

Perhaps a more pertinent question should be, why are you anti-Christian?

Rashduct4luv:
You will have to prove that Muslims hates Christian! You can celebrate as you like whether its in your Books or not.
But in Islam, we don't do that. Yearly celebrations are just two in Islam.


Prayer is the Salah that is obligatory on Muslims at least 5 times daily. This prayer is different from supplication which can be said anytime!

Our Prayer or supplication is not attached to year end or year beginning!

So in essence, no one preaches hatred against Christians.
Islam does not innovate new forms of worship as the Prophet of Islam has completed the ways to worship our Lord for us.

1. Is there a difference between Prayer and Supplication?

2. Muslims (esp extremists) execute Christians sporadically what more proofs do you want?
Pls you do not want to get me started on making a list.
Even the Koran supports this. Especially for a Muslim who converts to Christianity.

3. Hatred between Muslims and Israel is also biblical.
Islam originated from Ishmael while Christianity originates from Isaac. Read the story story or google and you will understand there may never be world peace as long as religious extremists exist.

4. The crux of the discussion which you have kept rigmarolling around is that you do not want to agree that a Muslim's prayer at the end of the year (aka Cross-over) is supported by islam because a Muslim is meant to pray every day.

AntiChristian:
When Jesus was sending out his disciples: Matthew 10:5-7
These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go onto the road of the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. 6Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. 7As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near....

Here Jesus specifically told them to go to the lost sheep of Israel not to the Gentiles nor to the Samaritans! In summary the world of Jesus is Israel!

And a Canaanite woman who of course Jesus wasn't sent to save proves the topic of this discuss as follows:

Matthew 15:21-28
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”
23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”

25 The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27 “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

28 Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.

Now, we see that Jesus was reluctant to even attend to the woman despite knowing that her daughter was demon-possessed!
And Jesus re-emphasized that he was sent only to the Lost sheep of Israel!

Interesting post.
But why is your moniker "AntiChristian?"

TossTos:
This guy will make this top promoters in the music industry avoid us we upcoming Singers from Sango/Ogun now..
So so speechless..

@tosgramm

Well it depends.

If he's is bringing in money, no qualms.
But if he's making his promoter lose money that's where the issue is.

But I'm sure he is bringing in money

Have you ever heard that no news sells like bad news?

The only thing that can make him run down is if he doesnt have a popping sequel.

All this is actually a plus to his street-boy image/brand.

Rashduct4luv:
Read the OP you will understand. We pray Salah and Supplicate everyday as prescribed in our texts. Celebrating New year does not exists in Islam. The Calendar came from the pagans!



How do you define most people? Do you even know Muslims have the Lunar 12 months Calendar of which the Muslims fasting and Hajj is based? Once again New year is not in Islam.



How does urging Muslims to mind their business translate to hatred?
And how is this paining you?

While I understand your point, can you prove this is not because of your hatred for Christianity?

Cos obviously like you acknowledged, a Muslim is expected to pray every day of the year.

It doesn't matter whose calendar you follow.

Deborah98:
There's nothing I won't read or see on nairaland... Can I ask a question please? Why are atheists called freethinkers and what does it mean to be one?

A free thinker is simply one who has chosen to deconstruct from his or her religious or tradional beliefs and to make meaning out of life from his or her own observations, validation and experience.

All the leaders of religion including Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed were all free thinkers because they chose not to allow what people told them to control them. They chose to believe what they observed.

A freethinker is no longer bound by religious rules, family or traditional rules. He or she simply wants to make sense out of life from their observations.

I don't believe that should be an issue.

Very shocking.. A healthy boy of 12 died a natural death?

In Nigeria they will legally break the law.

The school has settled with the people who dey control tinz.
Make the parents either reach out to outside countries wey hold 9ja for blukus like China. Cos as this case be, matter don end oh.

Imagine say after everything that made the press somehow they have the effrontry to tell us nothing fishy happend.

Cognitivereason:
Loud?...yes.

Empty?..lol...

The average southerner is a middle class and rich type yet they don't boast extreme rich billionaires....the average southern is loud because he/she has something to show for it...
The north or the other hand have 87% of it population in extreme poverty...let me repeat it....extreme poverty!!.. But ironically have two record breaking billionaires...
Compare both regions and receive sense

The north has both extremes.
The richest in Nigeria and the poorest in Nigeria.
Just like their weather. Extreme heat and extreme cold.

Cognitivereason:
Ur unintelligent

Average Northerners hardly brag cuz they have absolutely nothing

Am talking about the average folks from each region..ur Here bringing politician children racing in ABJ into the subject..

Comrade, try dey hide your northophobia small small.lol
Everyone know say all the looting of this country na North e dey. So dem really hold this mullah.

Some of them don't flaunt it cos they can get arrested. Some no flaunt it cos they're religious.
But without any doubt na North all this country money dey.

Bigredmachine:
No corruption is not the reason why we don't have cities like these in Nigeria...

It's our mindset and the way we think...

The countries that harbor this cities whose image u displayed here are corrupt if not more corrupt than Nigeria

From the poor to the rich, our way of thinking is very very bad

It still balls down to corruption.
Our corrupt way of thinking.

Other countries like you said are likewise corrupt. But they eventually had leaders that designed a system to checkmate corruption.

Cross Rivers benefited for the good leadership of Donald Duke and to day they are still reaping his good works.

Fashola and Ambode did the little they could do in Lagos and today Oshodi is a testament.

Anambra is also benefiting from Obiano and today they have their own Airport among other things.

As much as mindset and thinking plays a major role, we simply need leaders that have the passion to create a desired state/country.

Almost everyone is corrupt but true leaders leave a good legacy behind that the world would remember them by.

Nigeria as it is now, we don too tear eye. I don't even think we have leaders that will fight corruption cos they are all benefiting from the dividends of a corrupt system and the corrupt 1999 constitution.

Kobojunkie:
1. This isn't rocket science.

God's Law defines for us sin and it is those who are bound to God's Law that can be said to commit sin. Anyone who is not under Law has no sins to atone for.

Before Jesus Christ, the world was divided in to two groups - the Jews/Israelites who were God's chosen people since they were bound by an agreement/Covenant to God, and the the Gentiles who were lawless(without a Covenant with God) hence condemned to die by God's judgement over all mankind since Adam. You see God's Law acted as a buffer to the Jews from God's curse. This while God provided no such for the Gentiles.

So, again, before Jesus Christ, the only portion of the world living under any of God's Laws was the Jewish part - they were born bound to God's Old Covenant Law of Moses. The rest of the world, the Gentile world existed without a Covenant agreement with God and so had no sins to atone for. What was master over the Gentile world was instead God's Judgement and curse from Adam - Death, not Law.

2. Again, not all the jews rejected Jesus Christ. Please stop spreading this lie! His disciples and so many of the first generation Christians you read of in the book of Acts and the letters written by Jesus Christ's apostles were also Jews.

I'm not arguing with you but if you have studied the old testament Prophets you'll know this was all prophesied.

That the Israelites will provoke God to jealousy and he will in turn reject them and bless the Gentiles more than them to also make them jealous.

This is prophesied by one of the Prophets Ezekiel or Isaiah. Paul also mentioned this.

So Jesus like you said was sent directly and strictly to the Israelites. Which was why he rejected the Gentile woman who wanted him to heal her daughter. But he eventually healed her daughter due to her faith.

It was for the prophecy to be fulfilled that the Israelites rejected him so that the blessing can be extended to the rest of the world.
That God will provoke the Jews into jealousy when they see him blessing the Gentiles. And so return to him and accept Jesus Christ.

Yes a few Jews accepted Jesus and still few Jews accept him today. So the purpose of God is yet to be fulfilled. Cos it's only a minority of the Jews that accept him. The majority have rejected him as a false prophet who tried to destroy the established religion Moses laid down. In fact if you do your research ,in most Jewish temples they place curses on Jesus every time.

Kobojunkie:
But none of what you stated so far is of the Bible but instead of your own private interpretation.

Jesus Christ said in scripture that He was sent to the Lost sheep of Israel aka the sinners of the world - Matthew 10 vs 6 & Matthew 15 vs 24. He was sent to take off of them the old yoke and burden and give them instead a lighter burden and easy yoked. , the New Covenant with God - Matthew 26 vs 28 - 30

How can you call the lost sheep of Israel the sinners of the world?

Lost sheep of Israel refers strictly to the Israelites.
But after they rejected his message, he sent his disciples to the rest of the world.

Kobojunkie:
The claim in bold is untrue.

Jesus Christ was clear as far as the sinners He came to call/deliver - the Lost sheep of Israel aka Old Covenant sinners. He never left that a mystery, neither did He any of God's Truth - commandments as far as the New Covenant is concerned.

You really need to read the bible more and not just the Synoptic gospels. It's ok to prioritize the synoptics but do make time to read you read others old testament and the epistles.

God's plan has always been to save the rest of the world through Abraham. Genesis 22:18

Jesus came to save the lost sheep of Israel first and foremost but after they rejected him, he sent his disciples to the rest of the world.

That's irrefutable.
