If you believe this post (which is based on the findings of scientists/archeologists) then you must also believe that Dinosaurs once existed and that man evolved overtime, otherwise you're a hypocrite!

Science was pioneered and developed by many theists who believed that God created all things and gave humans power and ability to conquer the universe using their god-like abilities since they were made in the image of God.

The Bible has never been against science neither science against the Bible.

The conflict lies in the fact that the Bible said ALL things had their source from God, including the Dinosaurs. No one is arguing about their discoveries or their datings. Science can provide the datings but is at a loss about all origin questions.

Please don’t mix these things up.

Some of you don't know your history beyond 400 years. That is why you tend blindly cling to Jesus and Mohammad stories as if they are your ancestral stories.

If you can see a little far behind, maybe you muderfuckers will realise that you are original humans that are main to do great things. Not just languish like moronc wimps.

Your point?

So you just don’t want Christianity religion.
You preferred humanity religion.
That makes you just as religious as anyone.

By the way, humanity is covered excessively in Christianity. So no need to have a humanity religion that has no regards for God the creator of humans

CHRIST himself was in constant confrontation with the Jews. The Jews had a habit of killing even the prophets that came before CHRIST. They hate those who tell them that they messed up. They even rebelled against moses himself. Their most respected leader.

Thank you.
Jesus Christ was seen as a rebel who came to turn most things the Jews knew about God and their position with God upside down. That was what they thought.

They also thought his disciples preaching his works, death and resurrection were mad people. They could not change the narrative of the disciples because of the evidences of Jesus’ resurrection.

Some also thought Paul was mad for preaching Jesus Christ.

However there is a small percentage of Jews who are Christians. That changes the fallacious narrative that Jews are not Christians. If only a single Jew is, then the narrative tips in Favour of Christianity.

By the way, Christianity is an off-shoot of Judaism and so has so many similarities in Judaism firmly rooted among the Jewish culture.


The religious affiliation of the Israeli population as of 2019 was 74.2% Jewish, 17.8% Muslim, 2.0% Christian, and 1.6% Druze. The remaining 4.4% included faiths such as Samaritanism and Baháʼí as well as "religiously unclassified", the category for all who do not belong to one of the recognized communities.

Idiot the term bible means collection of books. Those ancient books today called bible hav been edited and reviewed by Romans and British empire for their selfish aims, who know nothing about jesus. What you are reading today is fiction by king James.
The original books of the bible hav the following:
Esdras, Second Esdras, Epistle of Jeremiah, Susanna, Bel and the Dragon, Prayer of Manasseh, Prayer of Azariah, Laodiceans etc.
Ask yourself who removed them, why was they removed and of which authority where they removed?

You could start by telling us why you think you are right and understand the Bible manuscripts better than scholars who developed years of arduous scholarly work researching on ancient manuscripts.

And give us your accounts with backed up data from your research.

Are you aware most scholars and historians, including the very conservative and very radical ones and atheists believe in the historical Jesus?

Are you aware a sizeable number of those also believed in his baptism, works, death and resurrection?

Where did you get your facts from?

Do yourself a favor and read up on why they don't believe in Christ. It's quite simple actually when your read the Old testament which is solely a Jewish book.

The reasons for their refusal of Jesus’ messages is in the gospel accounts and in Romans and Hebrews.

But many of them believed even among the rulers like Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, a woman from the household of Herod, Zacheus, and some sympathizers among the Sanhedrin.

Don't kid yourself bro. Religion is a fore-play to absolute colonialism. – Everyone (at least those who think) knows this –that's why we all worship the Gods of our conquerors. (Southern Nigerians worship the white man's God while Northern Nigeria worship the Arabian God)... We are all victims of our forefathers stupidity. Our forefathers were just sitting ducks waiting for someone, anyone to come impose their beliefs on them

Fallacy.

Are they also responsible for the ill administration of Nigeria since 1960 when the locals have been ruling themselves?

Is your immediate community an eldorado? I mean there is no imposition of colonialism there. Has your native leaders transformed your location through sound leadership?

We leave the speck of wood in our eyes and look for big logs in other people’s.

Athiests who are historians of course know that Jesus existed, walked upon the earth and the Bible is a real book.
They just insist that, "there is no God" because their human, carnal mind cannot of course understand spiritual things. And that delusion allows them to live a life unaccountable to a Higher Power.

Athiests who are ignorants and wannbe-athiests (Nigerian type) just rant about everything.

My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it...

Familiarity with the children/servants of God does not replace your responsibility to God. Now the big question is, "are you doing the will of God"? Have you surrendered your salvation to chance or are you working out your own salvation with fear and trembling - Philippians 2:12

There is a lot we can learn from studying the scriptures, but there are greater things we can become by DOING THE WILL OF GOD found therein.

So in your stupid head, the ruins prove that there was a god.

You are missing the point.
One of the arguments adduced for the existence of God is the life, times, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Christian know this to be true. But people like you need academic evidences for your intellectual objections.

Historians, archeologists , philosophers, and other scholars have been providing archeological data to support what we already know and what the Bible said.

These are additional information coming out that would still be scrutinized by scholars. Note that these were not done in one day. They have been working on it from 2016.

If you don’t believe in Jesus Christ but the archeologists show you evidences of his baptism, his life, his death and resurrection and some churches built after him by his disciples, then you only have no reason for your unbelief.

Do you get the drift now?

I was waiting to see an empirical evidence from you to show there is no afterlife and no supernatural phenomena. You don’t even have any. Lol

There is nothing juvenile in calling out ignorance.

Only an idiot will ascribe the discovery of ancient ruins to the existing of a god.

You seem not to know much about what archeologists and historians do?

You seem not to understand their invaluable contributions to many things you now know about. Or you think archeology and history is same as Christianity? Na waa for you ooooo

Funny guy. Drop your evidence that proves Adam and Eve's existence and you're telling me to read Genesis to Revelation. Drop the historical record that you claim that proves their existence, you still can't. You're a clown. I'm done wasting my time with you. Most of you are confused lots. Goodnight.

Simplesearch

If you post a picture of yourself in over-alls with diggers and shovels from an excavation site in Palestine, we will take you seriously.

If you keep gleaning from arguments developed by others and parroting their questions, we will never take you seriously.

If you cannot find empirical evidences for Adam and Eve and Methuselah but find archeological data proving 99% of the New Testament texts and historical data is true, and so many historical data concerning many of the Old Testament texts and historical data are also true, then by deductive reasoning and extrapolation, you should know every other thing written in the Bible is true.
The consistency of the information provided from Adam and Eve and the creation by God tallies with what we have in other books of the Bible.

Have you believed the sections of the Biblical data confirmed by history and archeology? Why have you not believed them? And who says you will believe when archeologist show you same for Adam and Methuselah?

Calm down, yes, most of us have been pent up to throw logic out of the window in defense of religion, however, these finds do not prove or disprove that God exists. In only proves that there were christians who preserved their beliefs with a piece of art.


Yes. It is not an evidence for God’s existence.

One of the arguments for God’s existence is the life, baptism , death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
So many never believed in the historical Jesus Christ. This if confirmed true implies Jesus Christ truly had disciples who worshipped him as claimed by the Bible and who had a church as claimed by the Bible and who were real as claimed by the Bible.

By deductive reasoning and backward integration, one could work one’s way backwards to confirm the historical Jesus Christ and his influence through his resurrection on the disciples who were radically changed and emboldened after his resurrection. If this is true, then the arguments for God through Jesus Christ is also valid and stands as one of the evidences for God’s existence. Of course all these historical and intellectual arguments is for the skeptic.
They do not form part of the faith of the Christian which purely comes from the Holy Spirit and the Bible and the finished work of Jesus Christ and his atonement death.
They only strengthen the faith of a Christian who doubts sometimes.

Of course that isn’t the only thing I said there.
I meant the Christian’s faith is hinged on faith in God and Jesus and the Bible through the conviction of the Holy Spirit.
What you are referring to is the intellectual and emotional objection or evidences for one who sometimes doubts, not for all Christians.

I don't care about your argument with that folk up there but let me make things straight with you..
Science and never concluded on the evolution theory,it just still a theory that has nowadays been found to have many loopholes,forget the haux and media stains you see,go into details in research and also validate your source of information,many great scientist are already disproving it,some are even against the media, movies etc for exaggerating evidences..
Dinosaurs existence is a different thing from evolution...

Recently,I made a post on an European evolution/UFO group on Facebook and none could follow.
Reading the Bible story alone makes a critical thinker disprove it because it appears childish but,that doesn't mean we should keep our minds close and accept every shady theory that is still being contemplated from science,it is not a fight against religion,it a quest to explain things....
We continue to ask questions all round..
