Family / Re: Why Do Some Men Demand Intimacy before helping their Brother's Widow? by SIRTee15: 6:24pm |
Mod pls shut down this topic. Its simply a fiction of the op's imagination. No brother make such extreme demand to help his late brother's family. Its also a slap on numerous family and uncles who actually stepped up to assist their niece/nephew on the demise of their parents. 1 Like |

AbuTwins: U have not answered my question. U are simply playing with semantics. John actually fell on his knees to worship the angel. But the angel rejected it. 8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. 9 But he said to me, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow servant with you and with your fellow prophets and with all who keep the words of this scroll. Worship God!” He fell on his knees to worship the angel...why did the angel not accept it as sign of respect? Why did the angel regard John falling at his feet to proskyneson as something only for God. Pagans can worship whatever they like, we talking of Jews here who fully understands that only ONE should be worshipped. When Peter met Cornelius in acts 10.25, Cornelius fell on the feet of Peter and worshipped him. . 25 As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped (proskyneson) him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying, “Stand up; I myself am also a man.” Why did Peter reject proskyneson if it's just to bow as you insinuating. Once again, Cornelius fell on his feet to worship...why did Peter not accept it as sign of respect. Why did Peter regard Cornelius falling at his feet to proskyneson something meant only for God. Yet Jesus was busy collecting proskyneson all over the place in Galilee and Judea. He didn't reject it and never corrected anybody not to fall at their feet to proskyneson him. Peter a disciple of Jesus rejected same proskyneson given to Jesus and told people it's only meant for God. The angel a heavenly being rejected same proskyneson given to Jesus and told people it's only meant for God. Why didn't Jesus say the same thing, why was Jesus collecting proskyneson meant only for God. That's my question. |

MaxInDHouse: Adonai is an Hebrew word my friend, so why should non Israelites call their God by an Hebrew name? |
Religion / Re: They Made Jesus God For Christians! by SIRTee15: 12:23pm |
AbuTwins: Answer my question or keep quiet. When Jesus said Thou shall worship only the LORD thy God...what is the koine greek word used for worship. Why did the angel refuse worship from John in revelation and told him to worship only God. What was the koine greek word used for worship in the verse. The word used for worship in the verses I quoted was proskyneson. So why is proskyneson such a big deal for the angel that he rejected it and told John proskyneson should only be to God. Pagans can worship whatever they like, we talking of Jews here who fully understands that only ONE should be worshipped. When Peter met Cornelius in acts 10.25, Cornelius fell on the feet of Peter and worshipped him. . 25 As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped (proskyneson) him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying, “Stand up; I myself am also a man.” Why did Peter reject proskyneson if it's just to bow as you insinuating. |

Janosky: U Jehovah witness will never cease to amaze me. U will see the truth gidigba like this, yet deny it. What is the English word for Adonai in the English bible. Can the English word be used for anything else in the bible. Can adonai be used for anyone else apart for God. |

MaxInDHouse: If U don't know something, ask instead of clowning in ignorance. In the old testament, The word LORD is YWH in Hebrew the name of God The word Lord is Adonai in Hebrew and it's used only for God. The word lord is adoni in hebrew and it denote human master. Sarah called |

AbuTwins: We talking bible here, I dont believe what's written in the Koran. So Hagar called an angel 'the Living one who sees me' Who is called Living one in the bible? So Hagar called an angel 'El roi'? In case U don't know, one of the names of God is El roi. So go back and answer my question did Hagar refer to angel of the LORD as God? |

Religion / Re: Abu Discussed With A Christian About Muslims Worshipping Kaaba by SIRTee15: 6:27pm On Apr 24 |
AbuTwins: So if Allah told U guys to bow to kabba in the Koran or hadiths. It shows God in the bible is not the same as Allah in the Koran. Simple. God in the bible forbid anyone to worship him by bowing before a stone. So if your Allah is telling U to bow before a stone, then they are not the same God. It's impossible for God to give contradictory message. Same God cannot tell Moses one thing and then tell Muhammed exact opposite. Allah is not God of the bible, Allah is an impostor. I think this settles the case. |
Religion / Re: Abu Discussed With A Christian About Muslims Worshipping Kaaba by SIRTee15: 6:12pm On Apr 24 |
AbuTwins: The verses I brought were for Solomon praying to God in the temple. Read 2 chronicles 7.1-13, can't be repeating myself. The book of ezekiel also talked about the glory of God filling the temple. Ezekiel 43 As the glory of the Lord entered the temple by the gate facing east, 5 the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the temple. There was no temple during the time of David but the tabernacle had always existed since the time of Moses and it's filled with the glory of God. Exodus 40.34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 35 Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. The Lord said to Moses, let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in their midst. Exactly as I show you concerning the pattern of the tabernacle, and of all its furniture. There I will meet with you, from above the mercy seat. Exodus 25:8-9. When the temple was built by Solomon, the tabernacle was inside the holy on holies in the temple. Its obvious U've not read the bible, U don't know anything about the old testament. That's why U ignorant about the glory of God, temple n tabernacle. U just parroting dawahganda script repeated in your mosque up and down. Even a 2 year old Christian knows God dwells in the temple. That's why U Muslims are pagan. U bow before an object void of God. |

MaxInDHouse: U better do some research into Hebrew name of God. Adonai is only used exclusively for God. B4 U reply me, learn the difference btw Lord and lord and how it's used in the old testament. |

MaxInDHouse: Adonai is the name of God, why would a Jew use it for exclamation. Show me where Adonai or any name of God was used as exclamation in the bible. That's what I've been asking U and U refuse to respond...show me where Jews used the name of God as a symbol of shock or surprise or amazement. Just one example.... Jesus called out to his Father Eli..Eli.. It wasn't a mark of exclamation or anguish. He was actually talking to God. |
Religion / Re: Abu Discussed With A Christian About Muslims Worshipping Kaaba by SIRTee15: 4:02pm On Apr 24 |
AbuTwins: The glory of God is called shikenah in Hebrew. Its in the talmud. What's with all these verses U bringing...U don't get it, do U? Prophets bow towards the temple because it's filled with the presence of God. How many times will I spell it for U. Gosh. They are bowing to God's glory in the temple not the physical structure. That's why I brought 2 chronicles 7. See it in another passage. 2 chronicles 5. 13-14 Then the temple of the Lord was filled with the cloud, 14 and the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the temple of God. |

AbuTwins: Then explain why the same word proskyneson which is worship in koine greek was used when refering to worshipping God. Why did the angel refuse John to worship him- proskyneson but told him to worship- proskyneson only God. “Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say, ‘You must worship (proskyneson) the Lord your God and serve only him 8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw all these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship- (proskyneo) at the feet of the angel who showed them to me. 9 But he said, “No, don’t worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers the prophets, as well as all who obey what is written in this book. Worship (proskyneson) only God!” |

AbuTwins: Then tell me why did the angel speaking to John reject worship and told him to worship only God. If as U claim, worship in new testament simply means to bow. |

Religion / Re: Abu Discussed With A Christian About Muslims Worshipping Kaaba by SIRTee15: 3:36pm On Apr 24 |
AbuTwins: What's all these.....we talking about angel of the LORD, U shifted to Ishmael.... Did Hagar refer to the angel of the LORD as God? Yes or No Your genesis 17.20 is very lame, U are the one hiding something. This is the full verse. 19 Then God said, “Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with Isaac as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. 20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. 21 But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you by this time next year.” 22 When he had finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him. God's covenant is with Isaac and not Ishmael. |

AbuTwins: Guy I never said U guys worship the kabba. Go through my previous post, no where did I say U guys worship a stone. I SAID U MUSLIMS BOW BEFORE A STONE WHICH IS A SIN TO GOD. GOD FORBID HUMANS BOWING BEFORE A STONE WHEN WORSHIPPING HIM. GOD HATES IT WHEN YOU ASSOCIATE A STONE WITH HIM. Do not make idols or set up an image or a sacred stone for yourselves, and do not place a carved stone in your land to bow down before it. I am the LORD your God. Lev 26.1 And never set up sacred stone, for the Lord your God hates them. Deuteronomy 16.22 Abu read to understand |

Religion / Re: Thomas Called Jesus, My Lord And My God. Jesus Didn't Say, I Am Not God. by SIRTee15: 9:44am On Apr 24 |
Janosky: Jesus Christ isn't physically God, he's God in flesh. Jesus is physically human with a human soul but his spirit is the divinity of God. Unlike our spirit which is made in image of God , Jesus spirit is the divinity of God. That's why Colossians said in Jesus lies the fullness of Godhead deity. The human soul of Jesus acknowledged that he was given divinity and he honoured his Father who gave him the divinity. Daniel 7.13 explain how someone like a son of man was brought before ancient of days and given divinity. So if U understand above, all the questions U people and Muslims ask about humanity and limitations of Jesus will become clear. Ask more questions and I will explain further using the scriptures. |

Ohyoudidnt: Do U believe Jesus has a divine nature? That's my question. U said up there that Jesus has a divine nature and I want to confirm U actually said so. Thomas couldn't have used God as exclamation mark- such phrase doesn't exist in those days n Jewish won't call God's name in vain. |

Ohyoudidnt: Jesus established the CHURCH. That's what he came here to establish. How many times will I tell U. Now say it after me so U don't forget...JESUS CHRIST CAME TO ESTABLISH THE CHURCH. When he was going, he handed over his church to his disciples. And when he comes back, HE'S COMING BACK FOR THE CHURCH, NOT ANY RELIGION. If U like continue wasting time on the best religion, that's Una problem. If U are not a member of the church JESUS CHRIST established, YOU ARE NOT FOLLOWING JESUS CHRIST. |
Religion / Re: What Was Wrong With Abubakar's Quran: Perfect Preservation Of The Quran by SIRTee15: 5:52pm On Apr 23 |

Religion / Re: What Was Wrong With Abubakar's Quran: Perfect Preservation Of The Quran by SIRTee15: 2:42pm On Apr 23 |
Ohyoudidnt: You ve said nothing. Christianity as a religion means nothing. Jesus Christ is everything, what U call yourself is inconsequential- what matters is being a follower of Christ. Jesus disciples called themselves The way. The Jews called them The Nazarenes The gentiles called them Christians. Any Jesus follower is free to pick a new name if he feels like it. Changes nothing. So if Jesus didn't bring religion then what did he bring? He brought the CHURCH. Yes Jesus established the church, he mentioned he brought the church and whatever name U call yourself, so long as U are member of the church which is the body of Jesus Christ- U are following the true faith and on the right path. Do U get it now? The way and manners U Muslims try to extrapolate islamic doctrines into Christianity and expect us to accept it will never crease to amaze me. By the way, the spiritual home of islamic faith is Saudi arabia. U people must face that country otherwise your prayers will be rejected. |
