obadiah777: THE BIBLE IS A REINCARNATION OF PEOPLES. THE NAMES OF PEOPLE ARE NOT REALLY NAMES OF PEOPLES FOR THE MOST PART BUT NAMES OF NATIONS OF PEOPLES CONDENSED DOWN INTO SINGLE NAMES. THESE ARE NOT SINGULAR HUMANS. ONLY A FEW SINGULAR HUMAN NAMES APPEAR IN THE BIBLE AND THESE WERE PROMINENT PEOPLE BUT FOR THE MOST PART, MOST NAMES ARE NATIONS OF PEOPLE
ESAU IS A NATION
JACOB IS A NATION
ADAM IS A NATION
JOB IS A NATION
DANIEL IS A NATION
ETC ETC ETC. SO WHEN IT SAYS ADAM AND EVE HAD TWO SONS, IT MEANS THE SAME NATION OF PEOPLE IN A DIFFERENT TIME FRAME LIKE SAY 1000 YEARS LATER OR SO. NOW THEY ARE CALLED CAIN AND ABEL. ONE PART OF THE ORIGINAL NATION HAS DECIDED TO GO REPROBATE AND NOW THEY ARE CALLED CAIN WHILE THE OTHER IS NOW ABEL ETC ETC ETC

To be frank your brand of christianity and bible interpretation baffles me.

obadiah777: CHIEF, WHAT I AM TELLING YOU IS THAT YOU ARE COMPLETELY MISAPPROPRIATING THAT VERSE FOR WHAT IT DOES NOT REPRESENT. THAT VERSE REPRESENTS AN ENMITY THAT THE LORD ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THE SERPENT WHO IS CAIN THE DECEIVER WHICH REPRESENTS THE FIRST NATION OF PEOPLE TO BRING IN THEIR OWN DOCTRINE AND GO AGAINST THE LORDS LAWS, AND ADAM WHO LATER REINCARNATED INTO ABEL WHICH REPRESENTS THE NATION OF ISRAEL WHO ALLOWED THEMSELVES TO GET DECIEVED BY THE SERPENT NATION. BECAUSE OF THAT GOD PUT AN ENMITY BETWEEN THE TWO NATIONS THAT WOULD LAST FOREVER. THE ONLY WAY THAT ENMITY WILL BE BROKEN IS IN CHRIST, WHICH EVER MEMBERS OF BOTH NATION WHO DECIDE TO FIND SOLACE IN CHRIST WILL BREAK DOWN THAT ENMITY AND THERE WILL BE NO JEW OR GENTILE MEANING NO ENMITY BETWEEN THEM AGAIN BUT ONLY IF THEY COME INTO CHRIST. THATS WHAT THAT VERSE IS ABOUT. ITS A WIDE GULF CREATED BETWEEN THE TWO NATIONS OF PEOPLE THAT CANNOT BE CROSSED. THATS WHAT ITS TALKING ABOUT.

Did you say Adam who later reincarnated to Abel? Where did you get that from. I thought those who believe in reincarnation believe it happens after the death of the first person.

striktlymi: Lol!!!


No joke man...it was terrible while it lasted...

Anyways, the OP is my way of saying that I have malaria

I pray you get well soon.I wish you speedy recovery.

Funny, this is the joke of the century. Anyway am glad u finally woke up.

Pastor Ola: This a person not RGGC PLS

you can say that again. I don't understand the meaning of all this generalisation here.

Pls I want to know

kambo: ur question is a leadg one. U cud as well ask shud churches disregard d bible in d face of rising anti christian norms. The law always bows to societal pressure. Lobbyng law makers to pass favorable bills is the order. Man made legal systems are malleable.
Dyu know wat marraige symbolises? Wat does d white dress stand for? It stands for purity. Marraige is a symbol of christ and his bride,d church, and Jesus is rapturing a church without spot,blemish,or wrinkle.
Coming to d alter representg purity with evidence of fornication, is mocking of christian principles.
It is encouraging d un married not to take pre marital continency seriously.

The pregnant couples can still marry and b blessed by a minister but it shudnt b a white weddg or a weddg at all. They cud have a private ceremony or go to a registery (legal) then get a minister to pronounce a blessing.
Or d woman can deliver d baby then come for d wedding (pretence - bt most wedded couples hav been screwg each other already).

where did the bible approve of the white gown as a symbol of purity in the bible?. What is the difference between wedding and church blessing if both of them take place in the church?. Where did the origin of wearing white during wedding come from. If the bride's white symbolizes purity what about the husband's black and other colours. Thanks.

In my own opinion, let pastors be paid. Most of these men have their families to take care of and may not even be the founders of the churches they are incharge of. For. Instance a pastor incharge of a church like winners chapel where you have a lot of members and yet he is under obligation to send any money realised in the church to the headquarters, knowing too well that the number of people he has to attend to might not give him the chance to engage in any form of business, I don't see any convincing reason why he should not be paid.

Ubenedictus: if st maria gorreti was confused then i pray God grants me that same confusion he granted her

Amen bros me too need that holy confusion.

I would have said amen to this but truly I prefer him being pardoned.

italo: LIAR!

Proverbs 19:9 "A false witness will not go unpunished, and whoever pours out lies will perish."

Proverbs 19:5 "A false witness will not go unpunished, and whoever pours out lies will not go free."

Proverbs 21:28 "A false witness will perish, but a careful listener will testify successfully."

Daniel 6:24 "At the king's command, the men who had falsely accused Daniel were brought in and thrown into the lions' den, along with their wives and children. And before they reached the floor of the den, the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones."

Can somebody say AMEN to the word of God?

Our God is still a merciful God.

I thank God for a day like this. I was worried about not attending mass today when I couldn't attend morning mass. But as God would have it I later attended mass right inside my working place. Christ has ascended, my prayer is; when he come again in glory may we never be found wanting. May Christ's ascension bring us a lasting joy.

Boomark: Why is the church afraid to add those revealed truth in the bible?

If we should follow that and go beyond what is written, then every church should have their own truth and no body should question it.

Whether JW, catholic, anglican, cherubim, Adventist, etc, they all have the truth.

The apostles wise and knew why they said "do not go beyond what is written." to avoid lawlessness and division as we have it today.

Even by following what was written, am yet to see two churches that completely agree. Now to the issue of don't go beyond what is written, if we take it at face value, we can rightly conclude that Paul was asking the corinthians not to go beyond what was written in the two books written to them.

Syncan: I agree with those who called it a joke, only because they linked it to the catholic church. Else it would have been no different from the female ministers in various non catholic groups. Ordained in a protestant church by God knows who, yet claims catholicism...that's where it becomes a joke.

You are right. I don't see why a Catholic minister should be ordain in protestant church. If at all the said women were ever Catholic, I can only say they actually excommunicated themselves even before they were excommunicated.

Segeggs: remove d plank from ur face then you will see d stick in ur fellow anglican's face

This post should be directed to you because I never anything against the Anglicans. Re-read the post and note that instead of addressing the issue, you came in with your harlot and child issue. That was why I directed that post to you. The fault is from you so your plank and stick issue doesn't hold water here. Face the topic at hand pls.

Segeggs: the truth is always bitter

I can't see any truth in that post

Rich4god: Plz italo, Stop replying to any post made by frosbel, i undastnd that he is jst tryn 2 create unnecesary atention here on nairaland, Plz leave hm n let hm b. "THE HOLY EUCHARIST IS THE CENTER OF OUR WORSHIP".

Tanks alot

[quote author=Chris†Kid]Gay Anglican Bishops are better than pedophilé catholic priests[/quote]Did I hear you say better? Are you a christian? Pls let's call a spade a spade. Both are very wrong.

Segeggs: Catholic harlo.t na him born anglican

pls it is not compulsory to comment.

There is a difference between legalization and violation. That some catholic priests are involved in pedophilia doesn't mean the Catholic Church legalized such. If the Anglican church decide to legalize gay practice that should be their own problem. The Nigerian Anglican did well not to involve themselve lets face the thread and not derail

The writer of this article should be ashamed of calling himself a christian. The bishopric is not based on tribe or ethnicity. He should stop this silly sensitization and allow peace to reign.

tchaik: Whenever I see posts like this, I wonder what future generations will think of us.
@sal c, can you comfortably show this write-up to your grandsons in future? *just asking*

Why not? What's wrong whit it or do you think the concept of God is something you can just sit in your kitchen and comprehend?.Sorry God is beyond the layman's simple comprehension. You may not agree with me but that's the simple truth. You need the inspiration of the Holy spirit to better understand God.

I won't forget to add "AMEN" to this, God bless the Pope.

Image123: when you seek to understand God primarily through the brain, you'll die. The bible warns already, Heaven is not begging for citizenship.

I agree with you, knowing God require the help of the Holy Spirit for the Scripture said the Holy Spirit will lead us into every truth and God is truth.

Why raining abuses on someone for leaving your religion? This will not make such person revert, if u have confidence in the God you serve, pray to him to show her the way back, and you too convince her to return but not what you wrote up there. But in all Jesus is Lord.

striktlymi: Deny? Anyways, I need not bother cause we have some pretty smart nairalanders who read and come to their own conclusion as against someone who prefers to join the band wagon.

No jokes. You are certainly not one of those

musKeeto: Radio without battery... Lol... Just keep rambling and rambling and rambling....

That's not true

musKeeto: ^^^^^^^

Lmao...

Na wa ooo

Syncan: Dr.Scott Hahn is still alive and does not need anyone else to authenticate his claims. He continues to deliver lectures. "Rome sweet home" is a contemporary testimony of a living witness to God's ability to direct a humble soul who seek him in Truth and in Spirit. However, just one thing separates Dr.Scott from a lot of those who are still where he used to be, and that is how he responded to this command..."Now you've listened to his voice, harden not your heart..." Ps 95:8, Heb 3:15.

Very true

@Jesoul Thanks so much for such a wonderful and encouraging write up, I agree with you intoto

Ihedinobi: For those of you making an issue out of the fact that there are no testimonies of how the arguments on NL has made anyone a Christian, I ask you, are new Christians made like that?

For those who are rejoicimg that arguments helped them find their atheism, well, it is precisely in warfare that the real men are known. It is in the face of antagonism that true Christians are separated from the false. Not saying anything about other religious persuations though.

Thank you for this comment.

okpurukata: If you are not strong in faith, this section can derail you.

Only a person who is grounded in faith can go through this section and still maintain his/her stand.

mumumugu: I hav always taught i was stupid, a mumu. Until i read posts by fellow mumu christians and especially mumu atheist. Now, i am proud of my mumuness. Am better of

It's obvious however silly you think you are, you are better off when compared with some people

Mods, change banner for this section to 'Lose your faith in God and higher powers'

Lol, interesting thread...
