Young man, if anyone gives you anything like what you called Bible, the onus as someone literate and wise is to read it, know about the antecedents and precedence to it.
If dogmas like you are asked who wrote the bible, the next answer would be “God wrote the bible” as if there is a printing press in your claimed heaven.

I’d never been to catholic service except a wedding and I was born Pentecostal, my brain is developing with my growth and never stayed juvenile like a baby.
"if dogmas like me", is a conservation too hard for you to have like you find it hard reading a book. You can just ASK instead of assuming to know who I am or what my response would be. But you probably have a top degree in assumptions and imaginations instead of applying yourself to read and ask what you are ignorant of.

By the way my answer is, Men inspired by the spirit of God wrote scriptures which are from Genesis to Malachi, while some texts are considered poetry among them. While the new testament is composed of letters with one sole revelatory book called the Bible.

You may have been used to having conversations with dogmas and illiterates or babies but not everyone is like that.

P. S don't care if you were born Pentecostal, you are either a child of God or you are not. It's should be embarrassing for you to say such meanwhile you were mentioning Catholic bible.

Simple question remains HAVE YOU READ THE BIBLE, THE ONE YOUR PENTECOSTAL PARENTS HAD WHILE YOU WERE BORN INTO THEIR HOUSE. HAVE YOU ACTUALLY READ AND STUDIED IT?

There are thousands of Gods worshiped by billions across the globe and all these Gods are talking about virtuous works.
So what evidence do you have that Bible God is the true God?🤔
My God don't just heal.. He made whole..

My God don't just give a surprise.. He is a Wonder..

My God is not static or a statue.. He is Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent..
He reveals and whatever He says He will do, He will surely do..

My God, the Almighty God, Unchangeable Changer is Indescribable.

Don't even dare...

"By Doubting, we are led to Questioning. By Questioning, we arrive at The Truth"

Plus, learning goes 2 ways.

And here you are also resisting my assertion hence this debate.

Therefore, moving on, everyone knows that I referred to the fire at the Altar that never quenches and the most important part is that you have fallen into what I was hinting at were you are admitted that it is "there for a good reason".

But , clearly you have not found the reason else you would have presented.

And thus, it is you who does not want to see and accept that the reason that fire is there is that God was giving us the first Hint of what we the world is taking about today which is that near His Throne (Ark) there is also everlasting fire.

Which as God reveals and Fulfills His Plans has cumulated to the great fear men have for death.

So, as I said before it is not about the words and meanings and histories and bible versions and translations. But about the spirit surrounding the idea of an information which is proven by the great fear and terror people experience when they hear the word hellfire or hell. The whole world understands that, is a very very bad place no one wants to go into.

And that is why your opinion is wrong and does not stand
The real meaning of things in the Bible is important. Gods words are clear. Ambivalence is dangerous as people can go with their different meanings. But we know “God is not the author of confusion.
That fire at the alter symbolized the presence of God and shows that the priests and by extension are always ready to offer sacrifices to him.
Importantly however is that our God is ‘Love’, he is not a manipulator or a gaslighter. He wants us to serve him out of LOVE and not because of some FEAR of some HELL.
What’s more? The idea of burning people in fire is repulsive to God. He punished nations including some Israelites that burnt their children in fire for the idol Molech.

The unadulterated truth of the Bible is important. Study to show thy self approved.

Now I understand your level of knowledge and the class of people who believe plagiarised books are written by their “spirit”.

Lemme lecture you, if you would take it and be liberated, though I doubt you are sound enough to get it.
A lot of stories (manuscripts) were written in scrolls and text about the past by different people based on oral tradition which had nothing to do with any spirit. Many of these stories were real, many were myth and some were imaginations. The manuscripts Codex Vaticanus and Sinaiticus were later transferred to books which you called Bible. The romans took the manuscript they are interested in and the leaders used it for their purpose as Catholicism, the British took theirs and used it for their purpose, Arabs took the books interested to them and transferred it to Quran. The common factor to these people mentioned is the establishment of empire and slave trade.
This is similar to the manuscript of Ifa transferred to books by the Yoruba. The only difference is that Yoruba are not sophisticated enough to force the ifa books on people outside their empire claiming it’s from God, killing and maiming anyone who doesn’t believe it.




The most stupid thing I’ve heard is hearing that one spirit inspired some imperialists to write a manual for their subordinates to follow, no be juju be that?

Understanding is your weakness obviously.
Lemme come down to your level, the manuscripts were writing by different people based on oral tradition passed to them. The imperialists took the manuscripts of interest, combined and modified them into an entity and used it for their interest.

I hope that’s good enough for your level to comprehend

Its okay. I have run since you have successfully pointed out that I am wrong. Since you have established that your God indeed said no mind can imagine the torture he has in store for those who hate him. Since you are right that Jesus never said pray for your enemies. I have run oh, as the coward that I am, I am happy to run. It is not my work to defend your God afterall.
If you truly believe you are right then why hit below the belt? Did I say "no mind can imagine the torture"?

Secondly and most importantly, why do you not answer the question I asked whether you have good and wonderful thoughts and plans for your enemies where you have good and wonderful thoughts and plans for your loved ones?

For even Jesus, the same One Whom you cited saying "love your enemies", Himself came back with anger and with armies and a Sword against His enemies.

So, you are better than all of us, vengeful people

So, i need to know what is the good to be done

And your answering the question whether you have good and wonderful thoughts and plans for your enemies where you have good and wonderful thoughts and plans for your loved ones?[/b] will lead the way.

So, for instance, if robbers had stolen your things, raped and killed your loved ones, you would in love invite them to your house for a lunch or dinner or stay over and never report to the police but quietly bury your loved ones and give handkerchief to your raped loved one?

Now you are trying to shift the post and derail the argument now that you see that your basis wrong

For, first, you just hurriedly manufactured the "symbolized the presence of God" as you forgot that the cloud by day and fire by night was the symbolic presence of God.

Then you resorted to the fallacy of ad baculum when there wasn't anything manipulative in my response. I only pointed out the connection in reference to the topic, which you could not deny.

So, now, you ran away from addressing my response and switched our positions of the argument and then you now went on to present your own belief on it, which is hinged on the fact that God was against pagan practices that included the murder of children via fire, you then overstretched beyond all reasonable reasons to mean that God would never burn people by fire, even when they are guilty of it.

That clearly is rubbish, for again you forget that He burned down Sodom and Gomorrah and it's sinfilled people with FIRE!

So, you see, yet again you are wrong.

I do not understand where I have switched. I didn’t say you are manipulative, I only said God isn’t, and it’s against his nature of love to set up a fire somewhere so people can be cowed into worshiping him.
Everything I tell you can be supported by Bible. The cloud by day and fire by night aren’t the only thing God used to symbolize his presence and acceptance of Israel’s worship. Even the ark itself is a symbol of Gods presence.
God also caused fire to come down from heaven after Solomon commissioned the temple to show his power, presence and acceptance of the whole idea of the temple.
Back to our main issue. The Bible when studied very well, while blocking out man made traditions, does not teach a fire that burns dinner forever. What the Bible teaches is total destruction of sinners- a death without the prospect of everlasting life. The soul that sinneth shall die.
What I thought is that you will fault my argument on Gehenna, Sheol and Hades. I even asked if it’s possible for righteous men to go to hell. You didn’t respond to those things, you have only been accusing me of somethings I don’t even understand.
*plus, all through the Old Testament you will never see any prophets tell sinners or a sining nation that they will burn in hell if they kept on sinning. Even you won’t find among the apostles. What they all said was total destruction as consequence of sin. Jesus symbolized this by using Gehenna
