Until that angel regrow an amputated limb, i will remain a skeptic

mirabel9:
please mind what you say here,
a sin against the son of man will be forgiven you,
but the sin against the holy ghost wont be forgiven neither in this world or in the next.

So stop joking with God the almighty please

mirabel9:
why talk foolishness here?

Angels and demons are real please,

have you ever experienced at midnight you were unable to move your body and its as if someone is pressing your neck.

Tell me if you know who is that?

Thats the demons called sleep paralises,

they roam the earth looking for whom to draw life source from.
And operates mostly at nights,

they are ugly creatures and would be reffered also as the fallen angels casted down to the earth.

Please heaven is real and hell is real.

Have you ever imagine how come the sun stands above us shining very bright and has not fallen down to the earth since for generations.

Did the sun just appear up in the sky by itself?

If then it appeared by itself up in the sky then i would strongly say aeroplane was created by nobody,

it just appeared and we are all using it,

i mean just to tell you that everything you see been created in this world has a creator.

And thats the God in heaven,
for he blessed us humans to also join in his creation thats why we are creating all this technologies you see,

why are goats and rams not creating phones for themselves?

Why do antelops not create a television?

Why do elephants not create electricty?

Why do cows not create bicycles so they can be using?

why do ants not create laptops?

To tell you that the lord never impacted knowledge to all this animals and reptiles as he did to humans,

he said let man have dominion over all the creatures of the earth and subdue it.

So to tell you there is indeed a God in heaven who made all this things to be possible

thanks

Good evening Nairalanders, am sure you are familiar with the account michellekabod1. It has been a while since I last posted.

All these while, I have been a bit lethargic on this forum due to the fact that I have indulged in sober reflection, and learning, and most of all trying to make it up with my Creator, God almighty, the author and finisher of our faith, the great "I AM".

It obviously would shock many to the bone marrow that I, a former atheist, out of the blue decided to denounce atheism for Christianity.

Not here to coarse or coax anybody, am not an apologist. Just wanna give my testimony.

Bless you my broda.

We will live to see the day when God will destroy this Chinese Arabs and Oyinbo nations. They do not worship Him or offer tithes. Helfire will be their portion. It is well.

Nigeria will rise amongst nations though our faith in Jesus.

The day when we shall sit and judge at His right hand is nigh O!!

The question is a loaded question fallacy. It assumes base on ignorance that God only serves to stand in the gap of our ignorance as wel that God is very small and indeed doomed to insignificance. In my own opinion, the person asking this question is limited in the definition of what God is all about.
This statement characterizes the God as “the god of the gaps.” In response to such arguments, which equate the unknown with the unknowable, "Dietrich Bonhoeffer" wrote, while imprisoned by the Nazi’s: “[H]ow wrong it is to use God as a stop-gap for the incompleteness of our knowledge. If in fact the frontiers of knowledge are being pushed further and further back (and that is bound to be the case), then God is being pushed back with them, and is therefore continually in retreat. We are to find God in what we know, not in what we don't know.

OK, it appears that the OP was not able to go much further than simply repeating what he has been told, and has abandoned the thread.

I will proceed without him/her.

Primitive man was able to predict the weather. They knew of the tides and seasons. the cycles of the Moon and the Sun. They knew when to plant their crops in relation to the seasons, when the rains were due, etc. In fact, they knew about the importance of forest for the rivers. (More recently, my own great grandparents knew that clearing forest would cause the rivers to dry up, long before science was beginning to acknowledge the connection.)

Scientists are fond of inventing and exaggerating the ignorance of "primitive" man, who could probably predict the imminent weather better than the average person today.

Have we "unraveled the mechanism of rain" today? The performance of our weather forecasts show that we are far from it. Even with our "superior" satellite equipment, capable of tracking weather systems across the globe, scientists still frequently get weather predictions wrong. Right now, in the UK, the weather forecasts are very hit and miss. Most correct predictions are a result of early spotting of existing weather systems,and tracking their movement, rather than a result of anticipating their formation using science.

So, in regards to rain, humans are doing much of what they have always done. Forecasts of more than a few hours can be very unreliable. So the claim that we have unraveled the mechanism of "rain" is based on myth and spin.

We could look at any of the other topics the OP mentioned, such as advancement in medicine. It is a similar story. But you need at least a basic understanding of the issues to be able to spot all the spin coming from the science lobby.

I am not religious, myself, but that is no reason to spin and exaggerate scientific "accomplishments".

sinequanon:
Which part did you "unravel"?



"we has"?

I am guessing that you wanted to say who, but then went for the vague "we", and forgot to change the conjugation.



Let us take "rain".

Exactly how do you know or tell the mechanism has been "unraveled". Let's start there.

sinequanon:
So, "...'we' don't attribute these to them..." means "solved"?

uh-oh, I've got a feeling this is going to be a whole waste of my time.

sinequanon:
Can you pick one of the listed "natural phenomena" and describe how it has been "solved".

Friend, they were far from primitive. Prophecies in the Holy Bible come to pass precisely as GOD gave it to these men. (An example is the prophet Isaiah prophesying about the birth and coming of The Lord Jesus Christ, approx. 700 years prior - Isaiah 9:6, etc). - "for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit." - 2 Peter 1:21

With regard to human beings and the message of the holy Gospel - think about it this way, and I am simply analogizing the best as is humanly possible. There is one GOD, the Creator of all things, natural and super-natural, man included. Man/woman (Adam & Eve), with free will, was/were tempted by the adversary, they failed. Prior to said event, God had kindly, yet seriously warned man about the only exception/rule - "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." - Genesis 2:17 (also see Romans 6:23)

Adam/man disobeyed - and consequently he died - apparently not physically at that moment because he lived for hundreds of years... but he and she died spiritually. All humanity, stemming from them are born physically alive, but spiritually dead. Humanity was completely lost, and without hope of being re-connected to the living GOD.

That is why GOD, in the Person of the Son, the Word, the Lord Jesus Christ - willingly sacrificed Himself to restore many unto GOD/Himself... to make us alive again. - "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive." - 1 Corinthians 15:22

"And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day." - John 6:40

This is the good news, the core message of the Holy Bible.

Give yourself a chance my friend... read the Bible from cover to cover. Apparently we do not grasp all there is to grasp without God's help... but read, and believe.

"...“Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven." - Matthew 18:3

"But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” - James 4:6

xproducer:
It is wise for all to trust in the wisdom of GOD, the Word - and not lean on our own limited understanding, or that of others. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

"Because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like [a]corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things." - Romans 1:21-23

"For it is written:

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”

Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the [a]disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe." - 1 Corinthians 1:19-21
