Christianity EtcRe: Because The Prophet Says So: by seyibrown(f): 11:16pm On Jun 15, 2011
Be sure that God has spoken to you about it, and hold on to God's promise! Ask God again to be sure you heard right! Many prophets mislead! It is better to hear from God and trust him.

The biblical David and Jonathan were homosexuals so what's the big deal? Lot also slept with his two daughters and impregnated them. . .so once again, what are we talking about?

***Religion and it's hypocrisy***
We are definitely not talking about DAVIDianity or JONATHANianity! It's about CHRISTianity! Christ never endorsed homosexuality! That said, David and Jonathan were not homosexuals . .  which bible have you been studying?

It's just like loving your child but hating his kleptomania! You love him but that doesn't mean you love or approve of his thieving habit! Loving someone (as God commands) who is Homosexual does not mean you love Homosexuality.

^^^ If he initiated the 'BREAK', he knew what he was doing all along. He wanted to be able to go to Naija and do the wedding without 100% guilt! He was dumping you cowardly! He had been cheating on you so it's best to just let people like that go. He's not worth it! If it helps, 'mourn him' and get over it quickly! It may even help if you delete all his contact details and not get in touch with him for the next couple of years! Your man is out there!
Christianity EtcRe: Is Homosexuality Allowed In Christianity? by seyibrown(f): 2:36am On Jun 15, 2011
The bible refers to homosexuality as an 'abominable act' before the lord, therefore, it is not Christianly or Christ-like to be homosexual.

God commands us to LOVE OUR NEIGHBOUR not LOVE EVIL/ABOMINABLE ACTS! It is possible to love THE HOMOSEXUAL and hate THE HOMOSEXUAL ACT! We still owe homosexuals a duty of love, peradventure they will turn wholly to the Lord when they see his love through us!

Christ did not revel in sin; Christians should not revel in sin! Homosexuality is SIN and the Bible spells it out clearly!Those struggling with this sin can ask God to help them overcome it, and they will if they do ask, and obey!

Christianity EtcRe: God Owns Everything And He Gave You A Will by seyibrown(f): 11:06pm On Jun 11, 2011
phxc:
Consider this, an armed robber accosts you and demands to have your money. She says that you have a choice to obey or disobey her but if you disobey her, she kills you. That's how I liken the free will argument. Compelling someone to obey by threatening to kill the person if the person does otherwise is not freewill. God by giving Adam free will was essentially telling him he had a choice to disobey his command of not eating from the tree of knowledge and evil; but adding the proviso that if Adam disobeyed, he would die changed the dynamic from free will to coercion.
^^^^^  The consequences of possible disobedience was explained to him by HIS MAKER! In your above scenario, the robber does not own the air the victim breathes! . . . . and Adam still exercised his freewill, didn't he? God commands that we love our neighbour, yet people still go about murdering, rap+ing and robbing others! They are exercising their freewill knowing fully well that there will be consequences - good or bad - for whatever they do. You will not throw a party for someone kills your child but you could for someone who saves your child's life! The reward for obedience (doing good) and disobedience (doing bad) are not the same, and we have the CHOICE to choose whether we OBEY AND LIVE (get rewarded) or DISOBEY AND DIE (get punished)!

[size=13pt]"When your intellect conceives of God, do not permit urself to imagine that there is a God that exists as depicted by you. For if you do this you will have a finite and corporeal conception of God, God forbid. Instead, your mind should dwell on the affirmation of God's existence and then recoil. To do more than this is to allow the imagination to reflect on God as God is in Himself and such reflection is bound to result in imaginative limitations and corporeality. Put reins therefore on your intellect and do not allow it too great a freedom, but assert God's existence and deny your intellect the possibility of comprehending God" 16th century kabbalist Moses cordevero[/size]

TravelRe: How Do I Travel Back To Nigeria With My Baby? by seyibrown(f): 2:40pm On Jun 08, 2011
busybody20:
Get his Long Birth certificate
Have him put on your passport (if its d old one) at d nig embassy
with that u shd be able to fly -Though i m not sure oo, GO to Nig embassy London for more details, DONT bother ringing their tel no, it hardly gets picked.
Just Visit them at the office for your enquiry
The above is what you need to do, if you need to get back home before you can get a passport for the baby. They will most likely ask you questions (nothing really serious )at the immigration desks on your way out of the country but I promise you, they do not want to keep you and your baby. They will be quite happy that you are leaving of your own accord! Just make sure you have the baby's details entered on your passport at the Nigerian Embassy. I think it can be done in one day on the old passports  . . . . . . .  don't know about the new ones! The forms you need should be available on the Nigerian High Commission website. I think they will ask for a signature from the baby's father as consent to have baby's details on your passsport but this doesn't apply if the dad's details is not on the birth certificate.

The Book of Revelation Chapter 2:

2:23 And I will kill her children - Those which she hath borne in adultery, and them whom she hath seduced. With death -

This expression denotes death by the plague, or by some manifest stroke of God's hand. Probably the remarkable vengeance taken on her children was the token of the certainty of all the rest. And all the churches - To which thou now writest. Shall know that I search the reins - The desires. And hearts - Thoughts.


Revelation Commentary , CHAPTER TWO - THE SEVEN CHURCHES, PART 1

3b. And [I will cast] those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation = indicates a punishment for those who have joined in with Jezebel’s cultural compromise. Adultery can be either literal or figurative. It should be understood as the literal breaking of the marriage vows. There is nothing in the text to indicate that married individuals were not participating in Jezebel’s activities. Just as they were physically eating meat offered to idols, they were engaging in illicit sexual activity. The penalty for this conduct is "great tribulation."



3d. And I will kill her children with pestilence = a case can be made for either physical or spiritual children. The outcome is the same—death. Pestilence is spoken of as the method of judgment. This event is specifically indicated to be authorized by the Lamb who is "The Son of God."

PropertiesHomeowners Reposess Bank! by seyibrown(op): 8:13pm On Jun 07, 2011
From: http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/-Sweet-justice-wronged-yahoofinanceuk-246365240.html


It's a fear at the back of the minds of millions — after you spend vast sums buying then personalising a house to turn it into your home, misfortune, rising rates or a single bad decision could see the bank take it back.

But for one couple, the injustice of such a move saw them turn the tables and gain a court order to repossess property of the bank that tried to foreclose on them.

So how did this "sweet justice" — to use the words of the lawyer representing the couple — come about? Well, in the same way it happens to thousands of normal homeowners — the bank made a mistake and then didn't pay for it as the costs rose.

How it happened

Back in 2009 Warren Nyerges — a retired policeman — and his wife Maureen Collier bought a house for $165,000 (£100,000) on the Golden Gates Estates development in Florida. But paid entirely in cash and so never took out a mortgage.

Sadly for them, the fact they had no debt on the property didn't stop the Bank of America initiating repossession proceedings against them in February 2010.

Of course, never having a mortgage in the first place meant their lawyer — Todd Allen — won, and proceedings were dropped.

But this wasn't a cost-free exercise for the Nyerges, resulting in more than $2,500 (£1,500) of legal fees. These, they repeatedly requested the bank compensate them for.

The fallout

The couple went to the courts to get their compensation. The courts agreed, and told the bank to pay them their due.

After another five months without their money, despite phone calls and letters, they simply took the next logical step and got a foreclosure order against the bank.

"They've ignored our calls, ignored our letters, legally this is the next step to get my clients compensated," Allen told CBS News.

The lawyer and two policemen, along with a moving van, then reported to the bank to collect desks, chairs computers and anything else of value — even the cash from the tellers' draws — to compensate the wronged couple.

And if you want to see the tables turned — you can view TV news reports of the event here.

Local reports tell us that under this pressure from the law and the media, it only took about an hour for the bank manager to produce a cheque for $5,772.88 (£3,515.11) to cover the bills the couple had built up.

"We apologise to Mr Nyerges that there was a delay in receiving the funds," the bank's written statement to the Naples News reads. "The original request went to an outside attorney who is no longer in business."

musKeeto:
You do realise you didn't answer the question. The question I asked was 'are churches biblical'? Your response look more like an answer to a different question, maybe 'What's the difference between a secular and religious court?'
Sorry, I didn't see the above bolded in your OP!

If you meant whether 'courts' are biblical, I did answer yes in post #3. Perhaps, you only read my post # 2.

-----------------added at 11.14 pm -----------------------

I had to touch on the 'do not judge' misconception which was your premise, otherwise, you simply were asking whether it was right to be a Judge or Lawyer since Jesus said not to judge. Or were you? The Bible nowhere says not be a Judge/Lawyer! Israel had judges!

Seyibrown. Seyibrown. Seyibrown. i called you 3 times so that you can pay due attention to the below;

is jesus not your God?

did he not talk about slaughtering some people deemed sinners by the king?


didn't he , jesus say that a disobedient or disrespectful child to his parent worthy of death?

didn't jesus disrespect Mother Mary when he said 'who is my mother? . . . you my followers are my family"?


no wonder there is too much confusion in the bible that says 'God is not the Author of confusion".
Egbon! Egbon! Egbon! Mo n je yin!  smiley

Where did Jesus say disrespectful/disobedient Children are worthy of death? Please, quote the Chapter and verse - and stick to the matter!

The rest I just have to ignore because they have been explained to you over and over again on NL! When you read the Bible with a mindset of disbelief and hatred, you will not understand it!
Christianity EtcRe: Are Courts Biblical? by seyibrown(f): 5:21pm On Jun 07, 2011
Courts are 'biblical', if you mean recognised by the Bible - Jesus even used one in one of his parables! Courts (secular) do not take God's forgiveness in to account when sentencing. They follow the rule of Law laid down in their jusridiction. Lawyers/Judges will not go to hell for being Lawyers/Judges but for being ungodly! God has forewarned of the fate of the ungodly whether they be Lawyers/Judges or not!

Religious courts who sentence people to death for sin are not of God - it is for God to give the ultimate punishment! God wants sinners to repent, not be put to be robbed of the chance to reconcile with God by fellow men!
Christianity EtcRe: Are Courts Biblical? by seyibrown(f): 5:06pm On Jun 07, 2011
'Do not judge. Only God can judge'
Did you find the above in the Bible? Please, provide the Chapter and verse!

My understanding of the widely misunderstood and misinterpreted 'do not judge' is that no one has the right to say somebody else does not deserve God's forgiveness! It is not a godly thing to condemn someone to death (in deed or in thought) for a sin which God has the authority to forgive! The Bible tells us that the measure with which we mete out to others will be applied to us. If we condemn someone to death for adultery (which is erring against God), then we should expect to be condemned to death for telling a lie (which is erring against God), as all sin is equal before God.
