You and your English must have become atheists at the same time. Both of you never see your errors even when it is in your own writing and right in front of you.

The person you refer to as a dead carpenter has shaken the very foundations of this world and brought life and joy and peace and a whole of good to almost 3 billion people all over the world with the rest of the world benefiting immensely from the ripple effect. Your father who is probably a director in shell has not even been able to affect his street.

This carpenter rocks!

Today, we continue on the characteristics of true sheep:

(d) The sheep come to church with their cutlery: their books, pens and Bibles. They don't place a time restriction on their shepherd. In fact, the shepherd has to stop them so that they do not over-eat. But when somebody does not want to eat, he is not a true sheep. God told Elijah, “Eat for the journey is long(2 Kings 19:7).” Many saints love short sermons; their minds drift during the sermon, they forget their Bible at home or bring only a tiny New Testament Bible to church and complain. Do you exhibit any of these characteristics? If yes, it is time to change.

Writing makes an exact man and the faintest pen is better than the sharpest mind. The book of revelation would have been lost if John the beloved did not write down the things that God was showing him.

(e) The sheep produce sheep: A true sheep will have a track record of bringing other people to church. Otherwise, they are not committed to the Church and may only be interested in taking from the Church. Shepherds feed green pasture to the sheep for growth, but the sheep are to birth forth other sheep. The fastest way to kill a sheepfold is by refusing to bring more sheep to the sheepfold. Addition through salvation is the growth process, not just biological addition of new children. Every true sheep has the responsibility to invite other believers to church and disciple them as the Lord commanded in Matthew 28:19-20.



PRAYER: Lord, grant me boldness and utterance to be able to witness and lead others to the Lord in Jesus’ name. Amen.

You are only running away. Adam did NOT speak any known human language because Adam remains a mythical construct. Nobody knows the color of his skin and the language he spoke because he is a mythical construct and with anything mythical details are never available.

Nobody on earth can tell you the language Adam spoke and the color of his skin because he was never a real human being. Just a mythical construct in the Jewish tales by moon light about their assumed origin of the human race.

Risky odds doesn't mean zero winning possibility, so you just affirmed the possibility of prayers being answered.

By saying odds come with simple Godly conditions, I mean almost all God's promises & instructions comes with clear conditions.

James 4:3 NKJV
You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

John 15:4 NKJV
Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

Matthew 6:33 NKJV
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.


1 Peter 3:7 NKJV
Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.


Isaiah 1:19-20 NKJV
If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land; [20] But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devoured by the sword"; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

Conditions attached to promises & instructions above are glaring.

-Peace.

One great thing about our universe is that it has laws that are never suspended. The idea that the laws of nature will be suspended for your sake if only believe, have faith and mutter words to yahweh or any deity is complete nonsense.

During miracle crusade, the "miracles" observed are nothing more than fake and staged miracles. People are also coerced to proclaim a healing of a malady they never suffered from eg. People who could walk are asked to sit on wheelchair and pretend they got their healing which enabled them to walk etc. Some of the miracles are exaggeration eg. Someone who was partially blind is presented as completely blind and the little he demonstrates to see to the audience is taken as TOTAL healing from God. Even the testimonies and healings on church flyers are fake.

Why is it that the people healed are relatively unidentified and unreachable persons? Why not Yinka Ayefele, Cobham Asuquo and the likes that are well known. To show you that healings and miracles are faked, why don't we see amputees and severed head restored? That's because these miracles are impossible to fake. The miracles that "happen" are those that can be faked - - - think about it.

Isn't it obvious enough Hv u really thought abt d beginning of all things Do u really mean u haven't seen things happen in the name of God that will naturally never happen

hopefulLandlord:

I don't do this to make people share my belief, that would be frustrating; I simply do this so people can question dogmas

We don't know yet the answers to your questions (that's even assuming your question is valid)

Ronpet777:
Never in my life hv I seen a collection of people who so vehemently resist any comment that ascribe glory and praise to God until I joined NL. I used to believe d idea was completely foreign until I joined Nairaland and realised they almost outnumber we the believers in God the creator of all.
I am not creating this to oppose such thought process which I felt was just theoretical as I knw science tend to call anything they don't have proof of Mythical.
But for an African person who has probably heard from reliable sources things that happen in the spiritual and the existence of God who does things when his followers call him in whichever name they knw him as, to still believe there is no God, goes far beyond me.
Cud there be any special reasons why so many Nairalanders are Atheist who hv no affiliation to religion and doubt the existence of God?

Blakjewelry:

I get your point but we all have been through that road at one time so I believe you are the one who is supposed to be more understanding , when I was a believer I even promised myself never to turn back but what set me apart is my hunger for knowledge, with that I realized that it will hard for well read individual to be a religious person.

But certain of this attacking their religion will only put them in a defensive mood, and when emotions are involved reasons are thrown out of the window

Ronpet777:

Hahahahaha! Finally getting answers to my questions. D majority religion orientation is obvious,but how sure are u that the 'owner' of NL is an Atheist?

ScienceWatch:
Muslims and Christians must never ever commit the sin of bowing to Atheists demands to "PROVE" the existence of God. God has already proven it to them. Let them prove to themselves that God don't exist !!!!

I have never committed this SIN. Who remembers the command, "DO NOT THROW YOUR PEARLS TO THE SWINE?"

HigherEd:

No instead we should jail stupid atheist militants like you and throw away the keys.

BLESSMME:


Wow Wow Wow
If not that I have come to know God for myself, you and your likes would av dragged me out of Christianity with your incessant curses. I have never read any argument between Christians and atheists without getting angry at the Christian folks. You are supposed to be peaceful and argue smartly, but the reverse is the case. Every point he made is VERY VALID.

You atheists have corrupted many people on this forum with your ideology. May the blood of Jesus wash away your sins.

I used to believe in yahweh until I started looking at the old testament critically as for Islam I have relatives whatsapp practice the religion and I have stayed with them and have some form of knowledge about the religion.As of now I don't believe in any as the way these religions describe their GOD makes me wonder.

Ladyhippolyta88:
Good for you but I sincerely believe in God.

royalamour:
So sometimes I see animals give birth and they moan and groan as a result of the pains they feel.

And I start to wonder if they ate the forbidden fruit and was cursed too.

So why do they feel pains like children of Eve?

Ladyhippolyta88:
No I am not an atheists.I prefer being an agnostic theist.

dalaman:
Liberal leftist in Europe and worse that Islamic Fundmentalist in their stupidity. They always refuse to tackle Islam head on. They feel Islam is sone distant problem when Islam and it's problem is knocking on their door right in front of them. They keep treating muslims with kid gloves all in the name of political correctness. They don't know that Islam is a virus that needs to be killed and quarantined immediately.

I like the Americans because they have the conservatives / Republicans that will NEVE allow Islam and breeding space in their country. The Europeans and toying with something that will consume them, they don't know.

Muslims need to be treated the way they treat others in their own countries period. Europeans need to treat muslim migrants the same way muslims treat non muslims in Muslim majority countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Indonesia, Egypt, Yemen, Iraq etc.

Europeans should NOT tolerate muslims and their madness. Muslims will leave their usless war ravaged lands, come into Europe and be brandishing swords shouting that Islam will take over Europe someday. What utter madness and the foolish Europeans will be looking at them instead of kicking them out immediately.

segunojo866:
good idea. Are you an atheist? Honestly if it's possible religion should be banned in Nigeria just like the way it was banned in China. China was a religious country many decades ago and suffer from poverty but the modern China without religion has the fastest growing economy and second largest economy in the world. The more churches in Nigeria the more the people and government depends on god.

Ladyhippolyta88:
So all the violent texts in all religious books should be torn out because that is the only solution.One of the differences between a moderate and extremist is that the moderate is open to changes and realizes that their holy books were written in different times for different purposes and cannot be applied to the modern world.Islamic rulers have a lot of work to do and re-orientate their followers but I don't believe the religion should be kicked out it is a personal thing and their beliefs should not be imposed on people or used to cause chaos.

Martinez19:
abeg no vex, make I go modify my op.

Martinez19:
Any observant person who follows the news and stays in Europe or North America will notice that Europe and North America are on the verge of islamisation. What astonishes me is that most Europeans and Americans look on and do nothing as the Muslim immigrants disrespect their culture and constitution. They look on and do nothing as the signs that Islam is dangerous and ought not to be in their community is displayed before them. They do nothing and are still tolerant despite the fact that fact that mass shooting, riots and protests against (very disrespectful) their constitution and culture by these immigrants. Right before their very eyes, Muslims riot and protest that they want the sharia. Even those who don't protest, when interviewed on TV, want sharia law and many won't condemn Hamas, ISIS, Hezbollah and other terrorists group and act. What!

What could be the cause of this apparent tomfoolery displayed by most Europeans and Americans who seem not to know what is good and bad for the well being of their society? The first thing that is obvious is that many Europeans and Americans are not well grounded in knowledge of the quran hence they don't know the danger and cunning tactics of islam. They see it as some other belief which they should be tolerant of and one which anyone has the right to hold and abide by in their country and to make matters worse, their bulk of Islamic knowledge is gotten from the so called peaceful/moderate/secular Muslims and Muslim apologists (who in my opinion are great and dangerous liars and hypocrites). Should that be so? I strongly believe that any society should be built on truth, free expression, equality and unity. Any belief system that contradicts these qualities ought not to be in any society.

Another reason for this tomfoolery is plain human stupidity. Having seen many debates and talks about Islam, you will agree with me that human stupidity is a great problem and foe of humanity. It's disasterous not only to the stupid one but to the person he(especially with his group of stupid folks) comes in contact with or having authority over. Human audience, in these debates and talks, readily applaud even the most insensitive and stupid things Muslim apologists say eg. On a particular talk, a man lamented on the dangers of islam, how his criticism has cost him his family and how he receives tons of death threats and he has to wear a bullet proof each day. The Muslim apologist in that particular talk scoffed and told him to stop being a racist and bigot if he doesn't want death threats. Believe me, the apologist's utterance was followed by a thunderous applause by the audience who were virtually all Europeans. Little wonder their society is on the verge of islamisation.

Where does human wickedness come in? On part of the political leaders, liberals, Europeans and Americans and apologists. Many political leaders are aware of the dangers of islam on human rights and life but choose, for whatever reason I can't fathom, to condone Islam and prevent the honest criticism of Islam under the guise of islamophobia. In Canada, it's now against the law to criticise Islam. Even liberals are part of this hypocrisy. Liberals do defend Islam after every terrorist attacks and killings by Muslim crackpots where as they ought to stand up for liberal principles. The people (most of them) are not questioning of Islamic doctrines and despite the disrespectful riots and protest of Muslims ( in which they the burn the country's flag, say horrible things against the constitution, culture and democracy of the country they are foreigners in, call for the implementation of the sharia law, demand killing of particular individuals for supposed blasphemy, burn and destroy properties, endanger lives of people that pass by), the people don't ask question of what right do these Muslim crackpots have to go on such riots and protest.

it doesn't change the fact that Islam ought not to be in a civilised society and that it's doctrine are evil. You clearly didn't read my write very well and you are not well informed on things happening in Europe or North America. The skillful Muslims want sharia too just like all Muslims. Do you know how Spain came under an Islamic caliphate? Peacefully or by the sword? Don't spoil my Sunday please.

Yahweh is currently in a spiritual prison and their is a scriptural reference to back it up. So don't be amazed if people refer to him anyhow they like. He's caged so he can't do shiiit. Even when he wasn't caged, what can he do?
