KingEbukasBlog:
God knew about Satan's aberration and the rebellion of Satan's followers .



God is prescient - has the ability to foretell future events . That includes the consequence of freewill whether good or bad . So the fruit he created allows man to express his ability to choose - a choice to eat the fruit or not .

Don't take it like God ordained man to fall ,he just had foreknowledge of it .



God does not tempt man to sin and man should not tempt God

Ranchhoddas:
No. The deist postion is that this Entity is non-interventionist. I don't know this for sure as I do not totally doubt the supernatural. I believe that some events eg faith-healing are actually real. I don't believe that they are all staged or that they are all placebo occurences. There is actually something greater. There is more to our existence and as such I can't subscribe to deism.

Anas09:
Why then have we been fighting all along? You believe all this and yet you say what you say against Yahweh? Or is your problem with Yahweh alone?

Ranchhoddas:
Lolz..We haven't been fighting oo. I just try to say things as they seem to me. I also haven't said anything against Yahweh. I am usually wary of the things I type. I still have an atom of Christianity in me. Some things just do not make sense anymore. I am actually looking for a reason to believe

Anas09:

What will angels use to fight? Swords? Against nuclear bombs?

Nigu, get real. You should like a kid in kindergarten

Anas09:
Take your eyes away from every Pastor, all of them. Find Christ for yourself. Truth is, am happy today i got involved in that accident, i was thrown inside the house and isolated. It was me and the Bible.
If it was from the eye and mouth of any Pastor, i would have fallen off since. But if you find him for youraelf, nothing can shake you. Sincerely seek for him away from anyone else.

Pick your Bible, study Jesus as a Character. Ask the Holy Spirit Questions, do not rationailze or apply logic, just leave Him to answer, you'll be shocked.

Ranchhoddas:
Hmmm. If I got a penny for every time I heard this, I for don hammer since?

KingEbukasBlog:
Lol . I thought you were Igbo .

It means I dey look you with style

Anas09:
Okay, forget i said anything.

Ranchhoddas:
Na joke o

Anas09:
Yep, He had foreknowledge of it, but He didnt decree their Fall.
Choice and control on the part of man.

4kings:
How does this make sense?

So u agree with Kingebuka that God don't tempt man(interfere), but always preach about his "willing" "interference" in Man's affairs with Rewards and Punishments he has ascribed.

Therefore, Man's Choice is only regulated by God when he is only abiding by God's laws(interference) but not when he falls to temptation(so as to remove Yahweh from the picture). Huh?

Anas09:
Oh hahn oooo. Weytin u dey use reason abeg. In the presence of an Angel, no human can lift a hand. Weytin u dey imagine angels to be. One Amgel, just one Angel killed thousands of men in one day, the men didnt even see it coming.
Hahahahahahahaha. Chai. Athiest dey reason like kids.
Dey Angels know where the Nukes are, and who will operate them. They nukes wont even go off, what then will u do?

Anas09:
How do you corrolate interferance with temptation?

If God interfers only when man abides in His truth and not when he falls out of truth, then there shouldn't have been Mercy, Comoassion, Forgiveness, and restoration. All the aforementioned are prerequisites of a fallen sinner.
A sinner has fallen and needs them all to stand up, without Gods interferance in that sinners life, how does the sinner (Who is dead spiritually) know he needs them, and how does he go about getting them?

Lets take Saul for example, he went all out persecuting the Church, but when Mercy found him, he became Apstle Paul. And it goes for everyone of us here today.

God doesnt punish anyone. It's like this, there are consequences for actions.

Let's say there are Sets of locked doors, and you are told not to open some but to open others, but you can't have anyone give you orders. (The doors are not yours btw, so do not know what lies behind them) and you are told, don't open the doors, if you do, you'll get hurt. But you tell yourself "no one can tell me what to do" (knowing its not your turf) You go on and open the doors. What see you see is what'll get nah.

And, freewill comes in when you decides to either open the doors when u've been told not to and have also been told the consequence. You won't be stopped if you decides to open the doors.

As far as am concerned, God interfers with what we do.
Thats why the Holy Spirit through Apostle Paul says

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans:5:8

First off, a sinner never admits he's a sinner. He doesnt even know what it means to be a sinner, so when u call him a sinner, he gets offended.
If he doesnt admit his state how can he move to change it without help? Now the help comes by God without being asked, gave his son to ransome the sinner. But what if the sinner looks at the gift, spits on it ans walks away?

Yet His divine intervention, divine direction, His mercies and compassion, forgiveness without which no single person would be alive today still works for everone of us.

The WAGES OF SIN IS DEAD. If he doesnt interfer,why are my still alive?
This is my take though

4kings:
Now we've agreed on "Interference"


Therefore, we are in a supposedly "controlled" or "regulated" environment; where results(consequences) are determined by actions or inactions.


Now, isn't it counterintuitive to say that we still have freewill. From the explanation so far, I would posit that the concept of "freewill" is subjective and not absolute.

Let me also give you a similar story:
Years ago, Adolf Hitler, who was a totalitarian leader, also gave consequences for actions committed or omitted. Would it be wrong to portray the regime of Hitler as a perfect example for Yahweh's concept of freewill?


So this is still similar to: a john doe, creating an intelligent robot but still instilling consequences on the robot for a specific action or omission. Can't we say the robot's freewill is very subjective and not absolute, and all the robot's action will be to please it's Creator, else he will be deactivated(tortured forever).

No, you are not making sense.

They clearly do not say what God says.

Proof?

Certainlt NOT by coming to a crowd of 20,000 and repeatedly get hundreds of new and genuine followers freely without any coercion. ANY Crowd, ANY generation. The gospel is that powerful. IF any group of 20,000 people gather and hear the gospel, HUNDREDS of new and genuine converts will come out even WEEPING in repentance. This had been repeated several times in different place across 2016 years. NO god beats that, simple.

It is not a feeling, it is evident. All you need to do is get some exposure and stop revelling in ignorance of happenings.

Duh, you asked for measurable and physical evidence why God is greater than gods. i gave you, now you agree and shift to higher don't mean blah blah blah. Sit somewhere and get wisdom. Shifting aroung only makes you look amusing, it does not help you achieve anything.

Don't be foolish, you are older than this i believe.

At long last, you are coming up. You have finally been able to show me something. Although it remains in clear contradiction of Mo's view that nothing is certain. Here again

One problem i have with you sinners is that you are shameless dishonest people. If i show you where you said that now, you will simply brush over it or ignore it and move to something else. Yet you expect that i should prove everything to your bias and satisfaction. Show me just one, no need to stress yourself and take every single piece of religion. Show just one that is the same as Christianity.

Evidently written by an atheist(habitual liars) who finds the Easter period frustrating to his soul. i said YOU should mention them, you are sending weblink. Your weblink says they are all MYTHS.Jesus was not a myth

but an historical figure who lived among normal men, AS a MAN. Died as a man and ressurected as a man.

Look at what you presented.Jesus was raised up from the dead, and raised with purpose. Who has the so called resurrections helped?

Those are all relative criteria. What us unambiguous or undisputable to you may not be to me.

Several times.

He fell, that's common knowledge.

And they are sure because you say so but do not believe so, that makes a lot of sense, right?

Nothing wrong with the numbers especially based on the Bible. Abijah's father had 88children, not 4 or 2. At that rate, it is very possible. Also, the message can be passed as my friend Ebuka explained. Moses passed God's message to much more.

They hardly said the bold as we both know. Nobody ardued about their originality, there are gods and there is God.

Image123:
This are just myths and superstitions stories about the world.

You lay claims to the earth being a god, the same earth we are on?

This is all never ending legend that anybody can make up) and co claimed to create the world and all humans. They are inanimate. Who can compare to the Living God, the Eternal and Only Wise God who has no Beginning?

Boxed in a corner, is the devil their daddy not still around?

God clearly gave His commandments for ALL men to obey. The ones not to be obeyed are also stated and you know it. God commands and requires ALL men to worship Him. He made them all also.

Stand for what you believe.

It is not my job to like or not like what you write. Unfortunately, you have not seen much. Look further, study right, i'm not teaching you ABC.

Image123:
Satan tempts me like he tempts every man, but he is not responsible for my decisions. i decide to yield or resist him, and so does any man.

Context.

If i prove you wrong now, you will simply say you understand or can't someone make mistake again. Atheism is not a thing, what is it?

You are the one that probably did not explain/express yourself as you wish, i did not misunderstand you at all.

hehehehehehehehehe, no vex na. So what is an agnostic atheist if not an unbelieving sinner on the broadroad to destruction?

Here is your post not typed under duress. You said that atheism has a lotta benefits ..u think for urself, Selfdepedency, U control and take responsibility. Further down, you had mentioned how it made you human or charitable, which was why i said you don't need to be an atheist to do that, that charity and love were core christian values.

The history of christianity is glorious barbaric and dehumanizing

. What you call the history of christianity is not christian neither was it perpetuated by christians but by religion.

How can it be relevant, lol. How can the words of Jesus the Christ be relevant in discussing christianity. You need to shake your head at the pathetic thing you wrote, i can't do the shaking for you my man.

That's deep enough. i ask if human life and ant life are of the same relevance and you say essentially or basically they are the same.

That is the atheistic ideology that Hitler had that led to the killing of millions of fellow humans.

Yeah right.

CHRISTIANITY has not been in state affairs control and brought catastrophe. Feel free to be specific.

Rather what.

So that proves that there is no afterlife or what?

God said so, who said yours? Are your wishes righter than mine? Hahahahahahaha

Stop jumping the gun again, did i say so?

Kind of sure, hehehehehehehehehehe. What does that mean?

Knowledge is not a contrast to freewill. If i know you, does it mean i forced you to be what i know?

i say again, Jesus IS coming. He said it after Peter died for Pete's sake literally.
Rev 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the saying of the prophecy of this book.
Rev 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
