deomelo:You tell that to your fellow naive minds ok? |
deomelo:1) Your criticism implies he should have not towed the line he did, and as such should have said "yes". 2) Why would you as a stranger with such a picture as your dp invite a married man to lunch on a public forum like that? It shows you have no respect for the man's wife, and if I were Reno's wife and he said yes to that woman, I WILL DEFINITELY HAVE SERIOUS QUARREL WITH HIM WHEN I FIND OUT. 3) If that strange woman was genuinely interested in a decent lunch couldn't she have sent him a private message? But no! She definitely had some ulterior motives, and if you claim you don't see it, then you are really very naive or you are blinded by APC propaganda. 4) I am a married man, and any strange woman with such a dp asking me to come meet her for lunch will piss me off especially if I am a public figure that it would have been well known to her that I am married. So if you dont know this, it means you are either not married and very naive about what it takes to keep a marriage OR YOU ARE VERY PRONE TO COMMITTING ADULTERY IN MARRIAGE. |
Oche211:What exactly is wrong or foolish in what he said? A strange woman like that publicly invites a married man to come and meet her for "lunch" and you expect the married man to publicly say yes to the strange woman? And then what will Reno's wife do if she finds out her husband agreed publicly to go and have "lunch" with that strange woman?? If you fault this man for this action, then it shows one or two things; 1) You are an undisciplined fellow who has no problem with committing adultery 2) You are so blinded by APC propaganda that it has now destroyed your ability to reason objectively. Either way, you need help from God! |
9jvirgin:Why can't you try and be using your sense when you talk about God? Did they tell you Africans had no form of religion before the missionaries preached christianity to us? Was there no Amadioha, Sango, Ogun, etc?? In Christianity, God demands that we give money in form of tithes and offerings to fund the church, but those African religions we had before christianity demanded we give blood of animals and human beings. I know you would have preferred for us to not have accepted Christianity and instead to have been stuck with African gods who drink human blood. Can't you see how wise you are? In old African religion, there is famine in the land, they sacrifice human being to 'cleanse the land'. In old African religion, they want to crown some kings, they sacrifice human being. In old African religion, they want to bury some kings, they sacrifice human being. In old African religion, they want to go to war and gain victory, they sacrifice human being. In old African religion, the gods are angry, they sacrifice human being. In old African religion, they give birth to twins, they sacrifice the babies in the evil forest to the gods. Every little thing is blood for the wicked gods of African religion. Then Missionaries came and preached Christ to us and told us of how God has taken care of our sins through the sacrifice of Christ on the cross and we now no longer have to shed human blood to appease any god, all we need to do is believe in Christ and obey his word and give money to support the preaching of the gospel, AND YET, WICKED PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE ANGRY, AND RATHER PREFER THAT WE GO BACK TO THE OLD AFRICAN RELIGION WE HAD BEFORE CHRISTIANITY THAT NEVER HELPED US ?IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT! IT'S BECAUSE GOD HAD MERCY ON YOU FOR YOU TO HAVE BEEN BORN IN THIS AGE WHEN CHRISTIANITY HAS USHERED IN FREEDOM TO MOST PLACES. MAYBE GOD WOULD HAVE ALLOWED WICKED PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO HAVE BEEN BORN IN NIGERIA 200 YEARS AGO, SO THAT YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN SOLD INTO SLAVERY OR SACRIFICED TO THOSE gods you so wished we still worshipped. ![]() |
dejt4u:If people have to submit to my email, it then means the marking will no longer be automated. I want to avoid that scenario. The marking needs to be done by the system to ensure fairness, speed and avoid human error. |
Gorioye:Well, if you have any practical suggestions, you can forward it and I will see how feasible it will be to implement. I have tried on my own to figure out the loopholes some people were using to view questions before they are released and I have tried to block all the ones I discovered. If I am able to discover any other means people may be using to see questions before release, I will still block it. But this is a case where nobody is physically watching people as they are taking the quiz, so you can't really tell what people are doing or not doing without some form of evidence. |

kimco:Is there any religion that claims to have a saviour of mankind? If your answer is yes, then we can have an argument over which of the "saviours" is real or fake. If your answer is no, then what really are you saying? Jesus is the only one who ever came to pay for man's sin. Muhammed did not, buddha did not. Every man has sinned, and if obeying some form of rules and regulations in a religious book is what would have saved man, then you already know that no human being including Muhammed himself is saved because everyone of them committed at least one sin in their lives. So if these religious prophets or founders couldn't save themselves from their own sins, then how could they save other people? This is why GENUINE christianity is beyond obeying some sort of rules and regulations, but about the sacrifice of a sinless man on the cross to pay for the sins of a sinful world |
soberdrunk:Why don't you concentrate on saving your soul first, before doing unbeneficial maths on other souls? Did you create heaven or hell by yourself to decide how many people go there or not? Is it not Jesus that said "the road to hell/destruction is a very wide road and many go therein, but the road to heaven/life is narrow and there be few who walk therein"? Jesus' statement should tell you that there are far more people going to hell than there are going to heaven. Do you know why people get condemned and go to hell? It's not because God wants them to, but because of the choice they make as it says here John 3:17-19 "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil." http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bible.kingjamesbiblelite |
marvinsync:1) The bible is not full of shit. It is full of truth, but we see most things in life through the prism of our mind. So if our minds become full of shit, we will always end up interpreting most things as shit even when they are not. This is why a wise man once said "perception is stronger than reality to most people ". One proof of that quote can be found in the lives of most celebrities we adore just because of the way we perceive them, and not necessarily because they are as good as they package themselves to be. 2) In the old testament when we had not entered into the dispensation of Grace through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, a lot of sins that are taken for granted today were punishable by instant death, eg. Homosexuality! Even idol worship in many cases in Israel was punishable by death or famine. But now, in the dispensation of grace, those things are still sin, but God now gives a much longer opportunity and time for people to realise their evil ways and change before they die and go to hell if they don't repent. 3) Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed because we had not entered the dispensation of grace at that time. America and Europe have far more Homosexuality going on that Sodom and Gomorrah multiplied by 10, yet God has not physically destroyed them because of grace. 4) Yes, God commanded Israel to kill some people/nations in the old testament. Do you know why? Because grace was not yet available to the world through the death of Christ at that time, and those nations were nations that refused to worship God their creator, but were into idol worship. And the bible makes it clear that THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH! So God was merely executing judgement on those people who refused to worship him by commanding Israel to kill them. THE SAME DEATH WOULD HAVE COME TO PEOPLE LIKE YOU SINCE, BUT IT HASN'T BECAUSE WE ARE IN A DISPENSATION OF GRACE. 5) Everybody who fulfills those 3 conditions I previously mentioned WOULD ALWAYS HAVE THEIR PRAYERS ANSWERED 100% OF THE TIME AND THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS! I PRAYED MANY TIMES FOR SPECIFIC THINGS AND I HAVE SEEN THE ANSWERS ON MANY OCCASIONS, ON SOME OCCASIONS I DIDN'T SEE THE ANSWER, AND ON SOME OCCASIONS I SAW THE ANSWER MUCH LATER THAN WHEN I WANTED. After a while I am able to tell why some of the prayers i didn't receive their answers immediately didn't happen at the time i wanted - IT WAS NOT THE WILL OF GOD, AND I ENDED UP GETTING SOMETHING I LATER REALIZED WAS FAR BETTER THAN WHAT I WAS PRAYING FOR! 6) Let's not just say I'm a programmer, because I am actually a programmer and that is what I do for a living. I create apps and programme them to do certain things, and if I find bugs that make them do something other than what I created them to do, I don't blame the app, I BLAME MYSELF BECAUSE THE APP DOES NOT HAVE A FREEWILL! The app does not have the power to decide to run any commands outside the scripts I have written for it. This is why I cannot set judgement and condemn the app if anything goes wrong with it. But human beings are not like that! WE WERE CREATED TO BE AUTONOMOUS AND HANDED THE SCRIPT THAT SHOULD RUN OUR LIVES (Which is God's word written in the bible), and then given the power to decide to run whatever script we choose. So, if we fail because we decided to run a script that Carries a virus instead of the recommended script given by God, then it is our fault, and not God's fault because we made the choice! QUIT BLAMING GOD FOR THE WOES OF YOUR LIFE AND START TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS! 7) I don't want to imagine a Bill Gates telling Windows to worship him as your mind is already imagining, but I want to imagine your own father or mother giving you biscuits when you were 3 years old and demanding you say THANK YOU to them after collecting the biscuits and running away without saying anything. OR why didn't you try mocking your parents and telling them they are INSECURE for teaching you to say thanks whenever they gave you a gift as a child?? After all, they are your parents and have all the money in the world to buy that little gift for you, and besides isn't it their responsibility to 'take care of you as a child'? BUT YOU KNOW HOW TO IMAGINE THE GOD WHO GAVE YOU AND YOUR PARENTS THE GIFT OF LIFE IS BEING INSECURE WHEN HE SAYS YOU SHOULD THANK AND WORSHIP HIM?? ***How more twisted and perverse could the human mind ever get?*** |
hahn:Praying for the dead does not change anything and God does not answer prayers for dead people. Prayers are only for the living. I never told you or tried to imply that Tony was right in praying for the dead, I only took issue with your ridiculous thought pattern that suggests God does not answer prayers in general. According to my dictionary, "Free will is the ability to choose between different possible courses of action unimpeded." Mark that word UNIMPEDED! This is why God did not rush down to the garden of eden to stop Adam & Eve from eating the forbidden fruit even after God had warned them not to and they were about to eat it. Go and read DEUTERONOMY 30:15 "Now listen! Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster." That is the definition of the freewill God gave man! And it is because that freewill is still in place and God does not like to violate it that is why you can still afford to remain a sinner and be heading to hell, and God will not force you to do what is right by making you forcefully accept Jesus Christ who is the only solution to man's sin. I say it again, if there was no freewill, then You would have been forced to accept Jesus a long time ago. IF GOD DOES NOT RESPECT THE FREEWILL HE GAVE MAN ON EARTH, THEN GOD WOULD HAVE TRULY BEEN A WICKED EVIL BEING LIKE YOU TRY TO PAINT HIM FOR JUDGING PEOPLE AT THE END OF THEIR LIVES AND HAVING SINNERS GO TO HELL. If God had to interfere in man's affairs to help him, then it would have been injustice for him to help some people accept Christ and go to heaven and forget to help all the sinners who go to hell. GOD IS NOT UNJUST! |
marvinsync:When they tell people to study and gain knowledge first before becoming atheists, they will say no and just jump out with their ignorance to try and dispute age-long truths. 1) Who ever told you that God answers 'all' prayers? Have you ever read Proverbs 15:8 (KJV) "The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight"? That is one kind of prayer God does not answer - prayer/sacrifice of a sinner (except if it begins with praying for forgiveness first) 2) Even when people pray, have you not read this to see the conditions? James 4:2 - 4 "You crave what you do not have. You kill and covet, but are unable to obtain it. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask. 3[b]And when you do ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may squander it on your pleasures.[/b] 4You adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God.…" If God decided to answer EVERY prayer all human beings pray, do you think you will be alive today? Do you know how many people who don't like you and wish you were dead or that one bad thing happens to you? So if God had answered their bad prayers, won't you have died since? 3) Have you read this before? James 1:6 - 8 "But he must ask in faith, without doubting, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7That man should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.…" Now, I will summarise these conditions for receiving help from God for you according to what the bible clearly says A) You must ask/pray to God for help B) You must ask with faith, believing that God is able to help you C) You must ask according to the will of God IF THESE 3 CONDITIONS ARE MET, YOU WILL RECEIVE ANSWERS TO YOUR PRAYER, BUT IF ONE OR MORE OF THESE CONDITIONS ARE MISSING, YOU WILL NOT GET ANY ANSWER (Except in rare cases where God decides to show mercy and do something that answers your need, but that answer to you ends up benefitting another person who has been praying for you knowingly or unknowingly). But the bottom line is that somebody must have prayed for that thing even if it was not you praying. LASTLY, God does not suffer from any insecurity issues as Lucifer has deceived you to believe. If He could create billions of galaxies and stars that even Astronomers have not finished discovering all of them, then who do you think you are that you can threaten God? If you die and go to hell today, God will still be sitting on His throne, and the earth will continue existing until any day God decides to end the earth's existence. So, my guy, you are not qualified to make God feel insecure. We worship God because HE IS GREAT AND DESERVES ALL THE WORSHIP! IT IS ONLY RIGHT THAT YOU WORSHIP THE ONE WHO GAVE YOU LIFE! AND I WILL ADD AGAIN; IF GOD DECIDES TO WITHDRAW THE FREEWILL HE GAVE TO MAN AND START FORCING HIS HELP ON MAN, YOU WILL NOT HAVE THE MOUTH TO QUESTION GOD AS YOU ARE DOING NOW, BECAUSE HE WOULD HAVE SINCE FORCED YOU TO GIVE YOUR LIFE TO CHRIST! GOD GAVE MAN BRAIN, SO MAN CAN BE CREATIVE TO SOLVE HIS EARTHLY PROBLEMS. A HUMAN BEING SOMEWHERE REFUSED TO USE HIS GOD-GIVEN BRAIN TO DO A QUALITY CONSTRUCTION THAT HAS COLLAPSED, AND NOW YOU WANT TO BLAME GOD? YOU ARE NO DIFFERENT FROM A LOT OF IGNORANT NIGERIAN CHRISTIANS WHO BELIEVE GOD SHOULD COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN AND SOLVE ALL THEIR PROBLEMS INSTEAD OF BEING PRODUCTIVE AND APPLYING COMMON SENSE TO SOME ISSUES THEY ARE DOING NIGHT VIGIL PRAYERS FOR. E.G. YOU WANT TO BE RICH, BUT DON'T WANT TO WORK HARD OR BE CREATIVE, AND INSTEAD THINK YOU GET WEALTHY BY PRAYING ONLY! |
