Viserion:God made all things already took care of the what ifs. |
Kobojunkie:Yes, it does. I am telling you that a Christian can and does still struggle against sin. It is a daily affair. Anyone who tells you he/she doesn’t isn’t being sincere. Question is on how one deals with it. And pls don’t talk about the spirit of God. Everyone who believes in Jesus Christ has the spirit of God in them. So a struggling Christian like Paul stated there also has the spirit of God in them. How do we gain victory then? Paul answered in subsequent chapters in Romans. |
Kobojunkie:None of what you said there indicated the Christian life is easy. Are you talking about the Apostle Paul who wrote this below? Please stop spreading emotional gospels that make new unbelievers fall off with surprises after repentance. The Christian life is tough if you want to follow it in the pattern of Jesus Christ. If not for the Holy Spirit help, none of us can measure up to the standards. “THEREFORE, SINCE we are justified (acquitted, declared righteous, and given a right standing with God) through faith, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).” Romans 5:1 AMPC “But I discern in my bodily members [in the sensitive appetites and wills of the flesh] a different law (rule of action) at war against the law of my mind (my reason) and making me a prisoner to the law of sin that dwells in my bodily organs [in the sensitive appetites and wills of the flesh]. O unhappy and pitiable and wretched man that I am! Who will release and deliver me from [the shackles of] this body of death? O thank God! [He will!] through Jesus Christ (the Anointed One) our Lord! So then indeed I, of myself with the mind and heart, serve the Law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.” Romans 7:23-25 AMPC “Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to go into the kingdom of heaven. When the disciples heard this, they were utterly puzzled (astonished, bewildered), saying, Who then can be saved [from eternal death]?” Matthew 19:24-26 |
Nwamaikpe Can’t remember the other old names from the past |
Kobojunkie:Lol! Please read the book of Romans and follow Paul’s teachings closely. Check his teachings on justification. It is hypocritical for a believer to claim all is rosy in the Christian race when we know it is not. The Holy Spirit provides guidance for the believer but we still face several tests that try our faith severely. I cannot claim the tests that come my way are very easy just to make myself feel good as not to be thought of as a weak Christian. Jesus faced challenges, his disciples faced theirs, pastors face theirs, every believer will at one time or another. Anyone who says the Christian race is easy is not telling the whole truth. |
KnownUnknown:Okay. For now multiverses are simply hypotheses |
Truvelisback:Becoming like Jesus Christ ( Christlikeness) through the exhibition of the 9 fruit of the Holy Spirit is never and will never be easy. That is why Christianity is hard. But the good news is that a Christian is justified not by his/her own struggles and works, but simply by faith in Jesus Christ. That justification and input of the righteousness of Christ to a believer gives a Christian a soft landing. Other than that, keeping up with all the teachings of Jesus Christ in the gospels is very tough. When Jesus taught about denying all and following him or endless forgiveness of wrongs or turning of ones cheek for endless slaps and wrongs or forgiveness of ones sworn enemies or selling all of ones prized possessions to follow him or cutting off anything that could pull one to hell etc are hard doctrines for anyone to keep up with. But then, the Holy Spirit serves as the guide and helper for the believer to make it. |
KnownUnknown:Ok. We don’t need to waste our time on that until the multiverse theories are demonstrated to be true. Then we can test for all the conditions of life and nature present in our universe in those realms. |
Viserion:God made everything. If there are multiverses, God would still be the God that has a necessary existence in all the universes. |
Terrence99:Yes you are right. Just one God we all know. But you can personalize your experiences with him and call him the God of Terrence99 and we will still agree with you. He is also the God of Nothingserious. |
SarkinYarki:Actually anyone who doesn’t believe in the Bible should have their heads checked up |
freshalien:That is what you tell yourself and you are wrong. You can now rest and leave Christianity alone. You shouldn’t really be bothered about them. |
captainamiedi1:Lol! Dom accounts are like full fledged current accounts. That’s why you require references. If you open any without references, there will be restrictions on the account. Or you may have limited features on the account. |
Anakazo22:Thank you. This is a reasonable comment. |
Okay1234:Lol! Old memories. Around 2006 we will go overnight browsing at a cyber cafe and spend a sizable amount of time surfing and reading gists on nairaland. It helped job seekers a lot . |
Will this help our balance of trade? Will it reduce the pressure on the naira from dollar denominated transactions? Is it connected to the loans and infrastructural support from China? Will our commercial banks compete favourably with them? Only time will tell! |
Workch:I actually made my point a long time ago. This is nothing serious. I am just having fun. Just showing you how silly and warped your logic is. I know that for the next 100 years, you can never answer any of those questions. I know you exist even though you can’t prove your consciousness. I know logic exists even though you can’t prove it. I know you have a mind even though you can’t empirically prove it. I know you appreciate aesthetics even though you can’t prove it empirically. I know numbers exist even though you have no empirical proof for them. I know you appreciate beauty even though you can’t demonstrate it empirically. I know the experiences we have about the origins of the universe are true even though we can’t empirically demonstrate them. Those are true even without empirical proofs. There are no scientific proofs for scientific theories/laws. But we know and assume they are valid. To say science has disproved God is not even a scientific truth and is not an empirical statement. God is immaterial, timeless, spaceless and transcendent. You cannot use the prism of materialism to demonstrate God with a lab crucible. You cannot even strictly say “proof of God” as proofs are strictly done in maths. But we have various arguments that have been adduced intellectually for God’s existence: 1. Cosmological argument notably the Kalaaam Cosmological argument. 2. Teleological arguments that talk about fine-tuning 3. Arguments from morality 4. The times, works, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and his teachings and revelations about God 5. Personal experiences and divine revelations through the Holy Spirit in the life of believers. If you are a sincere atheist, you would argue about the sufficiency and insufficiency of the adduced evidences or arguments. If you are an insincere and amateur atheist, you would just scream “ no evidence for God”. Choose wisely the type of atheist you want to be and defend your position. But then, no atheist has successfully demonstrated God doesn’t exist. You may read up the weaknesses of verificationism and scientism to help your stance. This is my last response to you for now.

Workch:Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness? If you can’t show me empirical proof for your consciousness, then you don’t exist. Agreed? Show us. Number 2: show us empirical proofs for your logic and reasoning applied in this discourse. If you can’t , we can assume we all haven’t been applying logic in diverse ways here. Pls show us. 3. Show us an empirical proof of your mind not being separate from your body and our discussion happening in real time.We need to be sure you are typing in real time and not a million years ago. 4. Show me empirical proof for maths or we assume they don’t exist. 4. Show me an empirical proof that the device you are holding is finer and more beautiful aesthetically than mine. If you don’t have any of these proofs, then you don’t exist, your mind don’t exist, aesthetics don’t exist, maths don’t exist , logic don’t exist. I am following your logic and I like it. |

Workch:And he was even trying to give you the cosmological and ontological evidences for God. He tried sef. Why waste such time on someone whose mind is closed to logic and reason? Hahaha! Someone who cannot prove his logic, consciousness and mind? How will he consider the cosmological, teleological, moral arguments for God? Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness?

Workch:Hahaha! You are still here wasting time. Go and devote the amount of time you spend ruminating about our God to refute spaghetti and spider-man. We have raised GOD-CONSCIOUSNESS in you. May God be with you always. And may his consciousness abide in your mind now and ever, Amen! Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness?

Workch:You don’t exist. I asked you to show me empirical evidence of your consciousness, mind and this warped logic you are applying. You failed since. You don’t exist if you don’t provide that. QED Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness? If you can’t show me empirical proof for your consciousness, then you don’t exist. Agreed? Show us.

Workch:Running from pillar to post now? Snake in Genesis and all supernatural events still revolve around your problem with naturalism/materialism/verificationism/scientism. As far as you carry hammer around and think everything is a nail, you will still be stuck at where you are. I already concluded you don’t exist as you have failed to give me empirical evidence of your consciousness, mind and logic. Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness?

Workch:Hahaha! This guy you are still here? We already concluded you don’t exist since you failed to prove your consciousness to us empirically. Hahahaha! Remember your logic about what cannot be tested doesn’t exist, including you and your logic. Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness?

Workch:Don’t beat yourself up pls. It’s an assignment for you to consider. Your response will not add a dime to my financial position. Keep ruminating on this for a while. It’s a good check on your verificationism and scientism stance. Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness? If you can’t show me empirical proof for your consciousness, then you don’t exist.

Workch:Hahaha! I guess you are stuck. Any day you feel like considering and responding, we talk. Until then, you haven’t earned the right to ask anyone about proofs for a supernatural and immaterial God. Good point. 1. Can we start with your consciousness?
