OLAADEGBU: @OLAADEGBU I have always been intrigued in the appellations "son of man" and "Son of man" Their meanings and significances I think "son of man" first made appearances in the Bible from Numbers 23:19, Job 25:6, Job 35:8 etc in that order Numbers 23:19: Job 25:4;6 KJV: Job35:8: In Ezekiel, probably out of role reversals, son of man and Son of man were interchangeable used for Ezekiel Incidentally Daniel saw one like the Son of man in Daniel 7:13 whereas in the fiery furnance Nebuchadnezzar earlier in Daniel 3:25 saw a form of the fourth is like the Son of God Daniel 3:25: Daniel 7:13: Man, son of Man, Son of man and Son of God certainly are not alike as two peas in a pod What's the distinctions. "Man" - glaringly self explanatory . . . "son of man" - exclusively born of man "Son of man and Son of God" pertains to humanity and divinity So here is where the fascination kicks. Why the Son of man choice? Except from "s[/u]on of man" as opposed to "[u]S[/u]on of man" referring to Jesus, I concur with most of Henry Morris, Ph.D especially in the lines of: the son of man is the fallen imperfect man and that the Son of man is the Exalted Perfect man Unmistakably God considered visitation, associating with man or treated the same as man and putting Himself in man's place for a purpose Hebrew 2:6: In verses like Matt 8:20 or similar, God is making a conscious statement and affirming that He is identifying with man Matthew 8:20: Matt 16:13 is a if you like, the "awareness" moment Matthew 16:13;16: Inspite of the revelation in Matt 16:16, he still refrained from using an alienating title but rather wisely used an unassuming modest and humble title - Son of man Matthew 18:11: |

nuclearboy: @InesQor 100% with Nuclearboy. If you've got time to spare. Read. As opposed to the ". . . Steer clear . . ." knee jerk reaction, I'll rather submit "Buyer Beware" and go down the line further with "Eat the chicken but spit out the bones" I enjoyed reading Dan Brown's books "Angels and Demons" etc but most particularly "The Da Vinci Code" When "The Da Vinci Code" came out there was the hullabaloo to steer clear of it Know quite a few "Christians" that were shite scared and wouldn't touch the book even if and/or when offered a barge pole touch with Yup book is tongue in cheek no doubt but it certainly had some degrees of information and a few eye-openers Here are a few examples. Mind you they are not in any particular order of significance 1) PHI (i.e. the Divine Proportion) 2) "the crucifix" (i.e. the cross) came from the Latin verb cruciare - to torture 3) Theory why sex was demonized by the Catholic power base 4) The Rose, an anagram of Eros - the Greek god of sexual love 4b) Apparently Roses have always been a chief symbol of female sexuality and in primitive goddess cults, the five petals actually represented the five stations of female life (i.e. 1birth, 2menstruation, 3motherhood, 4menopause and 5death) Back to the subject matter . . . Without meaning to instigate evidently there are parallels and similarities in context when comparing some Quran and Talmud verses The "People of the Book" referenced by Mo' certainly are not "Christians" but Talmud Jews Their scribes claim they received the Talmud partly as a collection of traditions given to them from Moses in oral form the Talmud: |

[size=14pt]Malaysia church torched amid Allah row[/size] KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - A church in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur was firebombed early on Friday, gutting the first storey of the building in a residential area, amid a row over the use of the word "Allah" for the Christian God. "It is confirmed that Desa Melawati church was burnt, at about 12.25 am in the morning. There were no fatalities. We are investigating the incident and suspect foul play," said Kuala Lumpur Chief Police Officer Mohammad Sabtu Osman. A court ruling last week allowing Catholic newpaper The Herald to use "Allah" for the Christian God has been appealed by the government of the mainly Muslim nation of 28 million people. The issue has threatened relations between the majority Malay Muslim population and the minority ethnic Chinese and Indian populations who practise a range of religions including Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism. Malaysian Muslims, who account for around 60 percent of the population, are set to protest on Friday against the ruling. The church that was burned on Friday was part of a group called "The Assembly of God". Many churches in Malaysia are situated in residential or retail areas and often occupy a small lot. According to 2007 statistics, there are 333 Assembly of God churches in Malaysia. "There are witness reports two persons on a motorbike came near the entrance and hurled in something looking like a petrol bomb. Our church is 90 percent gutted (on the first floor)," said church spokesman Kevin Ang from the Metro Tabernacle Assembly of God. It is illegal for non-Muslims to proselytise to Muslims although freedom of worship for the mainly Buddhist, Christian and Hindu religious minorities who make up 40 percent of the population is guaranteed under the country's constitution. The use of "Allah" has been common among non-English speaking Malaysian Christians in the Borneo island states of Sabah and Sarawak for decades and without any incident. for SOURCE:Click here |

Yes, of course I know Jesus momentarily didnt want to die but Christ wanted to and so God was obliged - for my sake, yours and others I'll give you the honor to work out the distinction between the person Jesus and the person Christ " . . . do you know that Jesus cried while dying?" you asked If I were Jesus, I too wouldnt conceal such emotion (i.e. energy in motion) and wouldnt refrain from displaying such frailty and vulnerability considering the excruciating torture of physical and mental pain He is about to be subjected to; for my sake, yours, others - the world.

Lady 234: @ Post Though a bit off tangent, in a weird and roundabout way, you're kinda right . . . (i.e. seemingly) but then really, the rule of thumb recommended when attempting to expound the bible is to do it in context and not in verse. Remember that verses were a latter addition to the bible (i.e. not inspired) When Deuteronomy is read in context as in reading Deuteronomy 5:6-10 it is apparent in Deuteronomy 5:9 that the contention/concern is about not bowing down unto (i.e. worshipping) graven images nor serving them. Deuteronomy 5:6-10 Contemporary English Version (CEV): Footnote: Deuteronomy 5:11 " . . . misuse my name": Probably includes breaking promises, telling lies after swearing to tell the truth, using the LORD's name as a curse word or a magic formula, and trying to control the LORD by using his name. |

Crime / ATM Fraud: ‘London Boys’ Invade Nigeria by Recognise: 9:59pm On Oct 31, 2009 |
[size=16pt]ATM fraud: ‘London Boys’ invade Nigeria[/size] USERS of Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) in Nigeria might have a difficult time in hand as many of them have continued to suffer unprecedented losses running into billions of naira following the invasion of a sophisticated syndicates known underground as ‘London Boys’ into the growing’ plastic money’ business in Nigeria. According to a report by Technology Times, the “London Boys” that are generally regarded as tech-savvy use the Internet and other technology gadgets to develop effective means of stealing electronic information that are the keys to unlock money saved in the accounts of ATM card users. It said, “they are often called ‘London Boys’ because they have fled the UK when the heat was turned on illegal money businesses and have lately found safe haven in Nigeria with the growing usage of plastic money among the country’s financial services industry.“ In recent times, they have also been exporting their trade to Ghana and other neighbouring countries within the West African sub region much to the ignorance of their hapless victims and authorities of those countries”. The Lagos-based Technology Times also reported that banks and other players in the Nigerian ATM business have become aware of the unprecedented amount of losses they have been suffering, conservatively estimated at running into several billions of naira, following the activities of these syndicates into the nation’s ATM business for SOURCE: Click here |

Religion / Re: Why Did God Put The Tree Of Knowledge In The Garden Of Eden by Recognise: 5:34pm On Oct 31, 2009 |
Agathamari: @Agathamari This is death concerning Adam and Eve and not about "explaining death to someone who has never experienced it" Recall the question God asked Adam was "Had you eaten of the tree that I had commanded you not to eat" Adam's reply was "The woman that thou gave to me, she gave it to me and I did eat" Notice Adam's admission didnt go like "Yeah I did eat of the tree but hey I did not know what death is/was nor had I experiened it" Unlike the "small children and people who had lived in exile their whole lives" in your submission Adam and Eve were made grown with a fair substantial amount of knowledge one might say they had a privilege headstart of information and knowledge (i.e ready made with knowlege of death etc) When God said "If thou eat of the tree, thou shall surely die, Adam understood God and believed the statement Adam understood the seriousness of not eating of the fruit of the tree that in order to prevent them been put at risk of death, in addition to stopping Eve getting any bright ideas in her head concerning the tree he informed her that ordinarily touching the tree would make one die (i.e. literally dont even think about going near that tree) Importantly recognise that eating of the Tree of Life is associated with perpetual existence and eating of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is associated with or leads to death (i.e. separation of man from God) All parties were OK with the deal without any questions arising until moment the seed of doubt was sown and personal ambition subsequently got the better of them. |

Health / Water-Drinking Contest Death by Recognise: 7:13pm On Oct 30, 2009 |
[size=16pt]'Wee For Wii' Water-Drinking Contest Death[/size] The family of a woman who died after taking part in a water-drinking competition has been awarded $16m (£9.7m) in compensation. [center][/center] Mother-of-three Jennifer Strange, 28, entered the California radio station contest to win a Nintendo Wii games console. In the event - dubbed "Hold Your Wee For a Wii" - contestants had to drink a 250ml bottle of water every 15 minutes without urinating. After eight rounds, contestants were given half-litre bottles. Mrs Strange is believed to have downed nearly two gallons (7.5 litres) of fluid in the hope of winning the prize for her children. She then left work early complaining of headaches, and was found dead later. A post-mortem found she had died of water intoxication. No criminal charges were filed in the case, but the woman's family sued Sacramento radio station KDND-FM for more than $34m. After deliberating for two weeks, a jury awarded her husband and three children just less than half that amount. Lawyers for the station argued that her death was unforeseeable, and her "contributory negligence" led in part to her death. Ten of the radio station's employees were reportedly sacked after the event. Experts say water intoxication can occur when the normal balance of electrolytes in the body is altered by a rapid intake of water. This can eventually cause the brain to swell, stopping it regulating vital functions such as breathing. for SOURCE:Click here |
