Simple...

why and how is it possible or even reasonable for all things to emanate and be controlled by a single entity or "GOD"? It fails in so many rational fronts...


I am not condemning theism mind you but the fact that we believe in only one God and that all things emanate and is determined by him is a blow to rationality.

You dig?
that's where u wrong, the things of God are spiritual the 'rational mind' cnt comprehend it. Its nt up for debate or meant to be put in perspective, its meant to be obeyed. That's why u cnt seem to get it with ur rational mind. U dig?

I think there is much of argument on this because some folks are not really vigilant in observation. There are some event fulfilling d biblical prophecies now. If u ever witness d blood moon that took place all-around d world including Nigeria on 28th of September at about 3:52am, u wouldn't need anyone to convince u on this I tell u. D blood moon event fulfilled (Joel 2: 30-32).

That's a picture from d city of Jerusalem in Israel.

God made all things seen and unseen and made what I will refer to as the boldest and bravest decision anyone could make of giving one of His creatures- man, a free will independent of Him. Man today will do all it takes in the midst of all technological advancements to still be in control of all his inventions, but not God, He decided not to remain in total control of man. Man, in his free will has chosen to abandon the knowledge of the existence of his maker and has chosen to believe in some 'big bang' theory which holds absolutely no intelligent thinking. How could one explain the perfection of the structure of the human anatomy and his internal physiological interactions with some random big bang theory. Only a super-intelligent being who is magnanimous enough to put into man's brain deposits of His intelligence could do that. And the only way to know Him and be recognized by Him as His own today is Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only one among all the gods recognized by other religions who has acted towards man in ways that greatly supercedes man's ways- forgiving sins totally and never remembering them anymore- That is super-human, it's what it means to be GOD and that is what Jesus obtains for all who believe in Him and confess Him as saviour. It's an experience, a miraculous one that passes human understanding. If such a being says He is coming back, no one should doubt or disbelieve Him. He definitely will be back.

Didn't Jesus claim his disciples would be alive in the second coming? Or have Christians downplayed and quietly ignored that as usual,just like anything that contradicts their belief is either antagonized or ignored..
Re: Will He Come During This Advent? by menxer:
I wonder if any of us after graduation from University has gone back to write primary 6 exams for First School Leaving Certificate or gone back to share the degree with the pupils of his/her Alma mater?

At the very best, you would sign post the the means and benefits to the pupils to obtain theirs, which Jesus did.

Waiting and hoping for Jesus to return (which I doubt) and share his Christ-hood with us smacks of the victim mentality.

Christ-hood is a degree all men should attain following the example of the Masters.

All paths that leads to and up the mountain provides a vantage point at the top for all to look at the same moon.

MrPresident1:
The Advent season is the period when the Church prepares for the coming of Christ. According to Wikipedia, Advent is a season observed in many Western Christian churches as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Jesus at Christmas. The term is a version of the Latin word, meaning "coming".
Latin adventus is the translation of the Greek word parousia, commonly used to refer to the Second Coming of Christ. For Christians, the season of Advent anticipates the coming of Christ from two different perspectives. The season offers the opportunity to share in the ancient longing for the coming of the Messiah, and to be alert for his Second Coming.

Matthew 24:30
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
my brother...read mathew 24....no man knows d tym...nobody go go hell, just like d way death comes to all suddenly...if u have a prior knowledge to ur death, i'd tell u, most people wud av escape death.

Anything that is incomprehensible to man is useless and unreal.... The ability of a thing to be verified makes it useful and real.

destined? how?
In your present realities don't you have freedom to do whatever you want. how is it an illusion. why do u want to refuse to accept the "rationality"/reality of freewill? since you are all about rational thoughts.
Political freedom and man given freedom shouldn't be mistaken for Freewill....

Let me slow it down for you... You go to a pastor or a priest and he foresees your future that you will have just two kids. Now what is that? Imagine you trying to beat that prophesies by impregnating numerous girls but all of them had miscarriage. With thus scenario, how then is man free?

Have you heard of the saying, "man propose, God disposes"huh? It shows that no matter our actions, a supreme being and forces still decide which will be fruitful... Freewill is determined....

Says who?
HE delayed HIS coming so that many more might be saved and that you might get yourself ready and prepared. If HE delays HIS more means there are more yet to be saved.

Never say HE is not coming back.
HE is and in this do I hope and every others who are waiting for that glorious day.

I wish you can put all this effort in debunking my assertions, I would be glad to learn. I simply made an assertion that a thing is only useful and real if it can be verified and serve a purpose. The formation of bones is taught even in elementary biology.

I await your factual counter assertion.
