Christianity EtcRe: My Pastor Told Me Not To Marry The Person I’m Dating by potent5(m): 7:55am On Aug 02, 2020
You are not serious about marriage yet. When you are ready you know what to do. Why didn't you take the poor girl to your mother for the so-called spiritual consultation before you started dating her? Now you are looking for excuse to abandon her. Nonsense
Marks112:
Hi everyone,my mom is a celestial woman so she believes in all these things
She asked 4pastors ,1said she’s okay,others said no
But the thing is I am exhausted,I can’t start all over again and I love her and she loves me very
She’s not your average Nigerian girl that loves money
I have just been thinking a lot ,cos I don’t even know what could happen in future that will make the pastors say no

And the main thing here now is now that my mom has asked these people she will never support this marriage,how do I convince her?

And I can’t break up with my gf she has been with me through a lot ..I just tire
Been praying to God that if she’s not for me she should be the one to break up or Bleep up
I don’t want to hurt her

Lilimax:
Why I Converted From Islam to Christianity.
opera.com

I converted from Islam to Christianity simply because Islam gives no guarantee of salvation. Because Islam recognises that Jesus is 'the word of God' so God "the Messiah therefore the savior ( Surah 3 v 45). Because Allah recognises in the Qur'an that thoe who follow Jesus Christ (Christians)will be above those who do not follow Jesus Christ ( Muslims and others)until resurrection ( surah 3 v 55). Because Qur'an itself recognises that Jesus Christ is without sin (pure) (surah 19 v 19),while the Qur'an asks Mohammed to pray for the forgiveness of his sins ( surah 40 v 55). Unlike Mohammed,Jesus has lived more than 33 years without ever sinning.

I converted because where Mohammed recommends the killing of enemies ( surah 9 v 5) Jesus Christ recommend loving them (Matthew 5 v 44).

Mohammed just affirmed,but Jesus Christ confirmed his words with all kinds of miracles and resurrection of the death.

I converted because Mohammed is asking the Muslims to turn to Christians to get the truth ( surah 10 v 94).

I converted because despite Mohammed's claim to be the seal of the prophets,he is dead and will never return,but Jesus Christ whom I hated before died and resurrected and will come back to fight the Antichrist ( even according to Islam).

I converted because despite Jesus Christ being surrounded by several women,he did not seek to have s*x with them unlike Mohammed who even had sex with Zaynab the wife of his son Zaid, surah (33 v 37).

And also because uptil this day,tye name Jesus delivers all kinds of captivity unlike the name of Mohammed. Because Mohammed recognises that he doesn't know where he and the Muslims will be after death surah ( 46 v 9).

I converted because Mohammed says all Muslims will go through hell (surah 19 v 71) while Jesus Christ gives eternal life to all those who come to him ( heaven) John 3 v 17.

I converted because Jesus never attacked someone to take something from him,while Mohammed claims war booty surah (8 v 1).

I converted because the birth of Jesus Christ changed the whole world and not a community and many more reasons.

So my brother my sister,only Jesus Christ saves. He is the way,truth and life. When I was a Muslim,I believed in everything we were taught about the Christians and the Bible and today that I became a Christian and read the Bible,I realise that what we were told is all wrong.

Jesus was never a Muslim,he is the savior of the world and He loves you and wants to save you. Give your heart to him.

I pray that the Lord God will bless those who share this article.

You are more convincing now. But...
1StopRudeness:
God sees the heart of everyone..., if Abraham considered Ishmael his son and if he had any regard for the slave... he won’t send them packing with a water jar..... as far as that bible account is concerned and human nature... Abraham technically had only one son he loved.. and the instruction came as “the son you love” so that he will no go and look for Ishmael that he had sent away and he ddnt really love...
Christianity EtcRe: Isaac Or Ishmael: Who Did God Command Abraham To Offer As A Sacrifice? by potent5(m): 3:37pm On Aug 01, 2020
Bros, no vex about my questions.

I just feel that it would make more sense and have be worth the kind of blessing that followed, if Abraham asked to sacrifice his only son than when he had 2 sons. When Abraham had 2 sons the significance of sacrificing one of them reduced by 50 percent. That's why I feel it happened when his only successor was Ishmael.
1StopRudeness:
Didn’t u read in the Bible urself....Gen16 Ishmael was born, many years later, Gen 21 Isaac was born....don’t know how many years later.. but in the same Gen 21 Ishmael and her mother was sent away perhaps for the sake of peace in the home... but if Abraham but if Abraham had moved his servant and son enough, he wouldn’t have sent anyone away for the other...

Gen 22 : no one knew how many years later that was...but the issue sacrifice came: how could it have been Ishmael when he and the mother were gone..

Btw ..I feel like I’m in an interrogation with you....it’s suppose to be a dialogue.... if you don’t have knowledge of the Bible...then we shouldn’t both be discussing the Bible.....if u are trying to drive home a point....you are making it too lengthy by telling me to give u a book, chapter and a verse to find something .....Is that how the accounts of the Bible are written ......u’ll just find all the information u are looking for in one verse??

Please don’t ask me for a verse... if I can’t drive home your point without trying to sound like an interrogator....lets call it a day....

From the way you reason, you need to examine your head thoroughly. Laziness is taking you around the country. By the time you realize that it's not about the place but about yourself it will be too late. Your mates are making it even in the remotest part of the world and here you are looking for ready made. Lazy youth. It's people like you that will convert to Islam just to become a slave in another man's land.
You can even go to sambisa forest for all I care. No body will miss you. But don't cry to your kinsmen empty-handed from your north in 30 years from now.

See how you have left the point and started talking about the governor. Did I ever mention the governor in my post? So because I don't like the governor I shouldn't say the truth when I see it? Is the factory owned by the government or governor? Would you like it if I say you are supporting boko haram just because you are making a case for a factory in the NORTH? Would you like it if I proceed to say that you are blindly supporting anything from the north and that's why boko haram is still tormenting you and your brethren in the north? Stop displaying TRASH mentality.
Bighead9:
Trash.
See how you are trying to sound smart by supporting an incompetent Governor. No wonder Abia State and other Eastern States are left behind, in terms of infrastructures and all.
Christianity EtcRe: Isaac Or Ishmael: Who Did God Command Abraham To Offer As A Sacrifice? by potent5(m): 9:16am On Aug 01, 2020
That's going by biblical account. But how do you know if Isaac was in the picture at the time?
1StopRudeness:
God probably never asked Abraham to murder any of his sons....
lets even assume he did..., it wouldn’t have been Ishmael.. becos Abraham never wanted a child from a servant to begin with, the wife technically forced him ... sacrificing Ishmael would have been too easy since abraham still had Isaac that was the son of his real wife and the promise God gave him.

If you used your head to think you wouldn't start talking about slippers factory when Op is talking about shoes properly so called. It doesn't take much to make slippers from rubber and synthetic materials as is done in Kano. Indeed, Nigeria started making rubber slippers decades AGO, not necessarily in the north. Mind you, the north has skin and hides yet it is not known for making footwear from these raw materials; instead it is making slippers from synthetic materials. What's the sense there?
Please don't just use your head to think, try to think SMART.
Bighead9:
See your life. If Slippers making factory can be that massive in Kano, what do you think their Shoe making Factories will look like? Remember, the North have the raw materials (Skin, Leather) for all kinds of Shoes.

Use your head and think.

Slippers making is different from shoe making. The one in Kano is obviously a slippers industry

From the look of things, it must have been Ishmael.

marvrick:
Hello fellow Nairalanders? My question for the day is somewhat controversial and has the potential of causing needless distress if not treated with openness and well grounded research. It is the matter of the sacrifice Abraham was ordered to make, using his son as the sacrificial animal. The Muslims believe Ishmael was the son that Abraham was commanded to offer. But both the Jews and Christians believe Isaac was the sacrificial lamb!

The answer to this question holds the secret to the true God that should be worshipped. It's either Ishmael or Isaac, either Jehovah or Allah, either the Bible or the Quran. One has got to be a lie for the other to be true.

Personally I doubt both accounts.
