FRANCISTOWN:
Excuse for your God again

But Melchizedek appeared without being born. Keep playing

Show us anywhere in the Bible where someone's arm suddenly appeared or where a normal everyday human being suddenly appeared and become a carpenter or such; or someone's long dead ancestor suddenly appeared and started living normally among the people. God doesn't do things like that, though he can!

PoliteActivist:
Well, Congrats on your ancestors surviving the middle passage and slavery.
The truth is that people follow religion that works for them or that they see working for others. There's a reason only 2% of Haitians is Voodoo, yet that's the voodoo capital of the world. If you are Viodoo and people can see you live a pathetic life, why would lots of people become voodoo?
If you were a mess but straightened up once you become a Christian why won't people want a piece of that? That's human nature

That's exactly how Christianity conquered Rome by the way. Spectators could see for themselves that the Christians being executed and fed to animals were
joyous and were somehow better people and better off than the people doing the executions. They knew they wanted a piece of that badly - no need for preaching or force. Till Constantine's own mother and wife and generals became Christians leaving him no choice really

DeezNutz200:
Close but no.

I'm Bajan, Barbados, within the Caribbean but not African American.

I know the majority of Haiti is Christian today but that still doesn't lessen the fact the the revolution was started and won by African native beliefs and not the Christian god. Also, I never said Africans in Africa were forced to give up their identities but the ones sold as slaves certainly were hence why we have no idea what ethnicity we come from in Africa. We are just a mix of African tribes with roots from Africa. So, we had to form a new identity using what they gave us "black".

Also, Voodoo has the stigma it has today because of western projections that connect the religion to witchcraft and death.

DeezNutz200:
It was forced upon us, we had no choice in the matter because our ancestors were the lowest possible class held & were treated like property not as human beings with rights. So, we had to accept it just like we had to give up our cultures, names, and traditions or be tortured and killed, thats why black people outside of Africa excluding Africans who have recently immigrated to the Americas are Christian today.

Before the Haitian revolt, Dutty Boukman, called Boukman because he could read as slavers didn't allow slaves to learn how to read or write led a voodoo ceremony incorperating Ogun for enslaved Haitians at Bois Caiman by drinking the blood of a pig that ignited the beginning of the Haitian Revolution. It wasn't done by that ghastly religion kept us in bondage.

Also, how does that refute my point that Indians didn't give up their traditional beliefs after being colonized whereas Africans were more than willing to accept a foreign religion at the drop of a hat as soon as the missionaries from Europe landed.

You are probably an African-American. Africans in Africa were never treated as property, nor did they ever give up their names, traditions, or culture till today.

Only 2% of Haitians are voodoo neither is Voodoo an African religion (see below).
A higher percentage of Indians are Christians. There are millions of Christians in India.
Unlike Africa where almost every family have their own god, 80% of the Billion+ Indians are Hindu, making it harder to evangelise

DeezNutz200:
Except they aren't.

Haitians defeated their enslavers with the help of Yoruba great spirits such as Ogun. Jamaicans led by Queen Nanny defeated the British with their African gods as did Yanga Gaspar defeated their Spainish masters. Even then, when places like India was defeated and conquered for almost 200 years, they didnt give up their cultural practices of believing in Lord Shiva for a foreign one.

Are you honestly telling me that Africans were that weak willed? Christianity kept the black man and especially slaves docile with the lie that we had to suffer in life to be rewarded in the afterlife. Even today in black churches/Christianity you’ll notice the preachings are mostly to do with tolerating suffering and living in fear.

How else could foreigners such as the Chinese you read about in the newpapers mess with Africans today in their own land?

You are mistaken. Vast majority of Africans enslaved in the America's became Christians till.today, including all those places you mentioned, and they were the ones who led the rebellion.
You keep forgetting that Christianity is not a whiteman's religion, that the whites also fought against it and lost.
The india you mentioned is actually proof whites didn't need Christianity to colonise a place. All they needed was a dane gun!

FRANCISTOWN:
Okay guys!

There are three beggars that I always see on my way to work.

Two of the three are amputees while the third one is blind.

My heart breaks whenever I see them every morning on my way to work.

I always felt like having a supernatural power that can heal them and make them whole.

I don't even have enough money to help them get artificial limbs.

However, I've heard some people say "What God cannot do, does not exist." And "He is a miracle working God"

Please I'd like anyone to recommend where I can bring these people to also experience this great power
That "changed people's genotype"
"Cured HIV"
"Cured last stage Cancer" e.t.c

Here's your answer:
God does not do certain things, though He could, because they would too much disrupt people's perspection of reality. For example He would not make a person suddenly appear from thin air without being born. Have you ever asked why Lord Jesus had to be born? Why didn't he just appear already fully grown?

Lyrics269:
Christianity was created by the romans for the purpose of collecting tax and brainwashing people

Soooo why did Rome perpetrate the worst persecutions in history in attempt to wipe out Christianity? And why would they create a religion that would supplant their cherished gods and revered emperors?? All of a sudden no one cared about powerful Zeus and also started knowing that the emperor was no god!
Make statements that have a modicum of logic

FRANCISTOWN:
The Bible is nothing but a compilation of fairytales written to amuse kids.

Anyone with half a fish brain shouldn't take it seriously

The guy Jesus never lived and a god who couldn't save his son from being crucified is as dead silent as 3AM at a graveyard.

Christianity is the most tragic thing to ever happen to the human civilization.

Yet the same Christianity went to Rome and told them that Zeus who helped them conquer the world doesn't exist that the only true power was Christ. They did same in Africa - told them all their gods were powerless. In the end they were proven totally right!

FRANCISTOWN:
I'll take the first phrase from 13 "If I speak In tongue"

Lemme tell you how speaking in tongues came about.

When Jesus turned water to wine, the wine was so good that they got drunk and started speaking incomprehensible language.

Even on the day of pentecost, the apostles were drunk in wine and the people who were there confirmed it, but the bible lied that they were filled with the holy ghost.

Speaking in tongues comes from drinking of wine.

LordReed already said shayo go plenty for heaven, that river of life wey god wan create. Jesus go help boys turn am to wine, e go be parte after parte.
Heaven go sweet die

See, you can't answer, that's why you addressing inconsequential.
And so what's wrong with wine?? And how is wine VIOLENCE AND HATRED TOWARDS OTHERS E.G LGBT PEOPLE AND TRADITIONALIST?? And how do you explain the fire that appeared on each apostles head?
Also tell us what in Christ's message did not boil down to love? What part is VIOLENCE AND HATRED TOWARDS OTHERS E.G LGBT PEOPLE AND TRADITIONALIST??

You are being economical with the truth.
The truth is, we used our gods to fight Christianity. We gave them our gods' sacred forests to build their churches expecting our gods would kill them off. Instead they took our gods to museums in Europe. They told us our gods were powerless. In the end they were proven totally right.
Same thing happened with them too by the way. When Christians were telling Romans that Zeus who helped them conquer the world doesn't exist, they were killed for blasphemy. In the end they were proven right!

How about Ephesians 13 below?
Or Philippians 4 after it??

Maxikenna:
That shouldn’t be the problem, the problem is are you making money for yourself and family members? If no, Do you know you can make money in dollars by simply uploading football videos on YouTube and earn money while you SLEEP? (It takes only 10 minutes daily) let me teach you everything you need to know. See my WhatsApp in bio. I charge 1k only (No extra charges)

If you were not a scammer you'd be using this medium to be advertising YOUR OWN YouTube channel. Which proves you are not making any money from YouTube.
Oga what are your YouTube channels?

Wodu89:
True my brother. This is one of life's truests statement. If we don't have poor people, we won't have work force for productivity

So how come some countries don't have poor working people. Nobody working there is poor. EVERYBODY is paid above poverty and retirement pension is above poverty and tied to inflation. The only near poor are those who can't or won't work.

See this useless THIEF!!!
Crocodile tears

Revelation4:

Ask him o. She didn't make the rules. Guinness did.
It doesn't matter what you cooking as long as you cooking. That's their rule!

Obi is a simple man. He'd have quietly accepted result of the election but for his supporters and all those prophets!

You have to hand it to this Ganduje. Despite the fact he was caught red handed and on tape stuffing dollar bribery into his babariga, he overcame it like it was nothing. Actually reminds me of PBAT.
This man could be President one day.

Benwallt:
Thanks bro. You are doing well

You too my brother, you too

Benwallt:
Menstruation

Oh
Menstruation is quite different from bleeding, but I get you

Quintopia:
But I’m sure you were full of admiration for the coronation of King Charles.

Did you ask or care how many of your ancestors his monarchy slaughtered?

King Charles is not king in my village nor does he purport to rule over me in any way.
Different from using my money to support some mofo marrying a thousand wives, whom I know is there not out of any merit but solely because of atrocities and subjugation perpetrated by his ancestors against my forefathers!

Benwallt:
These ones are burning their destiny in the kitchen. Hilda got nothing for her effort even with the bleeding

Bleeding?

JOemmy:
Baci record is not yet official why not wait for Guinness to confirm her first?

What has chef Dammy record got to do with Hilda record??
How is it her business?

Ismael97:
Nawao.. I'm sorry to say this, even if this girl cooks for 40 days and 40nights, not many people will notice her cos she is not as Beautiful and elegant as Hilda Bacci. She looks swaggless. She nor get Level

That's your opinion. I and the guy below think she is BEAUTIFUL!!

Abagworo:
She looks very much prettier than Hilda's photoshopped internet photos.

Girlee:
Common sense they say, isn't common.
You've got something very uncommon 🙌...
You're celebrated here!

Thank you, my new best friend!!

vowiski:
See this one, you think I don’t know you are one of her handlers ?

I have Been in this forum since 2007… I know a deplorable when I see one

You sure have been in the forum since 2007 - I checked. Kudos on being the very few that have managed to maintain a moniker that long.

But you're wrong. Don't know her at all.
Am actually against the whole thing including Hilda, that's why am supporting her.
Nigerians ought direct their energies to useful things not stupidity

Lukepeter:
Stupidity at its peak, at least people know her now and are talking about her. Who are you again?

Good reply

SultanOfAbia:
If I be Hilda Baci
I will send Agberos to scatter the event.

How are you sure CHEF DAMMY doesn't have her own agberoes??

Acekidc4:
Yeye dey Smell...........Who dash her Guinness Certificate of Record Breaker

Is it not people that break the records?

Slimwhyt:
Dem never confirm Hilda, diz one dey start her own.
It's alright.

How is it her fault??
They'll probably confirm her b4 Hilda

vowiski:
Records are met to be broken , but not this wayward way..

We love to celebrate nonsense.. Envious and bitter souls everywhere..

Nobody is interested in her crappy attempt to become relevant.

Wrong! I'm very much interested.
Her name is CHEF DAMMY and I'd love to meet her and donate to her cause!

jaxxy:
celebrate others and u will be celebrated.

In real life it doesn't work that way and it's not our fault. We didn't make life the way it is
