Stop quoting the Bible upandan.. .. Have you seen with your eyes?

Daniel 4:30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?

4:31 While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.
4:32 And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

4:33 The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.

4:34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:

4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

4:36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.

4:37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.

There is a mystery in this country. With the Dangote Sugar Company 'doing so well that it exceeds it's profit margin'?

And by the way, what do we use the sugar for when tea had disappeared in the menu of most Nigerian families?

Psalm 1

BOOK ONE

1[a]BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather.
2But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night.(A)

3And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].(

Ezekiel 37

1THE HAND of the Lord was upon me, and He brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.
2And He caused me to pass round about among them, and behold, there were very many [human bones] in the open valley or plain, and behold, they were very dry.

3And He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, You know!(A)

Get behind me Satan.

The difference between head knowledge and heart knowledge

Head knowledge: you can quote the scriptures but don't live the scriptures while Heart knowledge: you don't just quote the scriptures but you also live the scriptures

Head knowledge: your understanding of the scriptures is based on your feelings while Heart knowledge: your understanding is based on the Holy spirit guidance.

Head knowledge: you puff while Heart knowledge: humility is seen in your knowledge of the word

Head knowledge: you teach the word to confuse people the more while Heart knowledge: you rightly divide the word of truth

Head knowledge: you gather knowledge without checking whether it is right or not while Heart knowledge: you are like the Berean Christians.

May we die to head knowledge and be alive to heart knowledge in Jesus name, amen. Maranatha. ..He cometh soon.

who is/are the Berean
Christians? thank you...

Your God must be a magicia.... LOOOL

if that's your perception thus far...

dalaman:
We know the history of how the writing came about but that's beside the point.

The writer was shown what? The writer was shown how God was speaking light into existence? Or how he made the vegetations? He was shown how God placed the starts in the firmament or what exactly?

What is a firmament and how are the stars , moon and sun placed inside this elusive firmament?

And God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be signs and tokens [of God's provident care], and [to mark] seasons, days, and years,(C)
.
refer to verse 8 of Genesis 1

dalaman:
What are you saying? Firmement had to give way for who to see what? Does it tell.you that there were human beings at that time? So which way was this elusive and mythical firmament giving for whom to see clearly? Who were the people observing the sun and stars? Can you name them from the bible?

The bible clearly said that the sun moon and starts were created on the 5th day of creationand you are here spinning it and trying to explain absurdity away. What is a firmament by the way? The bible says the sun, moon and stars are placed in the firmament to give light to the earth and sepertes day and night. What kind of nonsense is this? Are the sun moon and stars placed in any firmament?

It's very clear that the ancients that wrote this know nothing about the stars.

They even attempt to explain how vegetations were formed. They said created the vegetation in a day. The erths vegetation cane about over millions of years and is still evolving.

like I said earlier you jump quickly into conclusions, it appears you are very close minded.
The writer wrote as he was shown and the narrative points to an earth point of view.
Regarding the firmaments or no firmaments, have you taken out time to study other planets or ancient earth through books, documentaries? then you wouldn't be jumping into conclusions with out objectively analysing what you have. Besides you don't even have anything to weight it against (according to you).

malvisguy212:
you don't know how the universe was created, but it cannot be God ? the atheist faith is more stronger than the religious folks.

this is quite ironic considering the op by KingEbukasBlog.

dalaman:
On which day of creation were the sun, moon and stars created?

fixed... That would be difficult to put a permanent conclusive note on given the info we have. But we know that the first thing created (without giving reference to Genesis 1:1; which is even wrong) is light. Don't you think the firmament/whatever-was-above had to give way for us to know what type of light?
there's no conclusive evidence that God was just creating said lights but points more that God was giving whatever light 'jurisdiction' to operate, to express their glory to his creations and in that accomplishing their purpose.

The Arabic Origins Of Common Yoruba Words by smemud( m ): 5:30pm On Apr 24 By Farooq A. Kperogi, Ph.D. I am taking a break from English grammar this week to discuss a fascinating 22-page article I read on the Arabic roots of many contemporary Yoruba words. Titled “On Arabic Loans in Yoruba,” it was written by Professor Sergio Baldi, a well-regarded Italian linguist, who presented it at the Annual Conference on African Linguistics in California, USA, in March 1995. The article lists scores of common Yoruba words that are derived from Arabic sometimes by way of Hausa, at other times by way of Songhai (Zarma and Dendi languages in present-day Niger, Mali, and Benin republics are examples of Songhai languages), and occasionally directly from Arabic. (To read the full article, click here ). In this essay, I isolate only words that, from my modest knowledge of Yoruba, enjoy widespread usage and that are not limited to the vernacular of Yoruba Muslims. It is noteworthy that different versions of many of the words below are also used widely in Hausa, Kanuri, Igala, Ebira, Batonu, Nupe, and many Niger-Congo languages in northern and central Nigeria. In fact, “wahala,” a common Nigerian Pidgin English word, has Arabic origins, as you will see shortly. 1. Abere. This Yoruba word for “needle” traces its etymology to the Arabic “ai-bra,” which also means needle. 2. Adura. This is the Yoruba word for prayers. In fact, there is a popular syncretic Christian sect in Yorubaland that goes by the name “aladura,” meaning “people who pray” or “praying people.” Many other northern and central Nigerian languages have some version of this word to denote prayers. It is derived from the Arabic “du’a,” which also means prayers. 3. Alubosa. This Yoruba word for “onion” was borrowed from the Hausa “albasa,” which in turn borrowed it from the Arabic “al- basal.” 4. Alufa/Alfa. This is a widely used word for a Muslim scholar (and occasionally any Muslim) not just in Yorubaland but in Nupeland, Borgu, Igalaland, Ebiraland, etc. It is now increasingly used by Yoruba Muslim women as a term of respect for their husbands. Surprisingly, the word is absent in the Hausa language. It came as no surprise therefore when Professor Baldi suggested that the word came to the Yoruba language—and many other central Nigerian languages— through the Songhai. It is derived from the Arabic “khalifah,” which means a “successor” or a “representative” (of the prophet of Islam). It was first corrupted to “Alfa” by the Songhai who later exported their version of the word to western and central Nigeria—and to other parts of West Africa. Many Songhai were itinerant Islamic preachers who traveled all over West Africa. 5. Atele/itele. It means “following” in Yoruba, and it is derived from “at- talin,” which also means “following” in Arabic. 6. Amodi. It means “disease” in Yoruba and is derived from “al- marad,” the Arabic word for disease. 7. “Amo.” It is a conjunction in Yoruba, which performs the same function that the word “but” performs in English; it introduces contrast. It is rendered as “amma” in Hausa, which is the way it is rendered in its original Arabic form. 8. Anfani. This Yoruba word for “utility” or “importance” also occurs in Hausa, Batonu, and many northern and central Nigerian languages. It is derived from the Arabic “naf,” which means “advantage, profit.” 9. Ara/ apaara. The word means "thunder" in Yoruba, and is derived from the Arabic “ar-ra’d.” 10. Asiri. It means “secret” in Yoruba, Hausa, and in many other Nigerian languages. It is derived from the Arabic “as-sirr” where it also means “secret.” 11. Barika. This is the Yoruba word for “congratulations.” It is rendered as “barka” in Hausa. The word’s original Arabic form is “al-baraka,” which means “greetings.”



no candid evidence for claims... Cc: Seun, lalasticlala ... can this fellow give logical proofs for claims?

malvisguy212:

lol

dalaman:
At least your God described how he created the universe in the bible and his role in it. It fails completely.

You haven't provided proof for the conclusion above.

dalaman:
It gets it totally wrong. For example it says that the earth and plants were already in existence before the sun and the starts were created among other nonsense.

I think you are too quick to jump into conclusions...
.
.
In the beginning God (prepared, formed, fashioned, and) created the heavens and the earth.(A)
2The earth was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters.

3And God said, Let there be light; and there was light.

4And God saw that the light was good (suitable, pleasant) and He approved it; and God separated the light from the darkness.(B)
.
I don't see the creation of plants b4 verses 3/4 ...

dalaman:
I don't know.

and the biblical evidence/inclination is false because?

flakky02:
This is not an advice or a warning; it is a command for all children of God who are single waiting to marry.
“This is what the LORD commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them marry whom they think best, but they may marry only within the family of their father’s tribe.’” Numbers 36:6
If you are a child of God through genuine salvation in Christ Jesus, then your Father is God and you are His child, you belong to the redeemed tribe of God through Jesus Christ. And when you want to marry either a brother or a sister, you must not marry outside the redeemed and regenerated tribe of God.
Everybody on earth has two different fathers, either God as Father or Satan, and we all belong to two different tribe – the regenerated tribe of God or sinful tribe of Satan.
As a child of God, if you marry a man or woman who is not genuinely born again and living a new life in Christ, it means you are marrying someone from another tribe of another type of father, Satan who is going to become your father in-law and it means anytime your father in-law visits you, you are trouble.
If you are in a relationship with someone who tells even little lies, it means you are preparing to get married from a tribe of lies, and the father of lies and all liars is Satan who will become your father in-law.
If you are in a marital relationship with someone who likes worldly fashion, it means you are getting married to the tribe of worldliness, and Satan is the father and will be your father in-law, and because of the spirit of worldliness, such marriage will be worldly and wasted.
If you are in a marital relationship with someone who is seducing you or demanding premarital sex, or who doesn’t see anything wrong in premarital sex, it means you are setting to marry from another tribe of Satan. When you please someone to give premarital sex in a marital relationship, the same person will displease you after marriage to give extra-marital sex to another person outside.
Any church or denomination which insists that their single brothers and sisters must marry in their church is teaching unbiblical phenomenon, except if such denomination can biblical prove that only their church members alone are children of God and all other Christians from other churches are sinners – that will be extreme heresy. Bible does not command Christians to marry in a particular denomination, but only in the Lord.
Do not marry from the tribe of Satan, do not marry a worldly Christian, a gentle sinful Christian, a nice, beautiful worldly lady, a sinner-Christian, a sinner-Christian worker, an immoral-pastor, these are two contradictory words and it leads to contradiction in marriage.
Prayerfully and patiently wait for God’s perfect will for your life. God bless you

please quote the preceding verses here for all to read.

dalaman:
Your evidence that the universe was created by a single entity that used words of Hebrew in creating everything we see around is WHAT?

You don't know how the universe came about but you just believe that this entity must have created it even though you have no evidence to show or support your assertions only empty and weak arguments.

You can start by showing us that the universe came about by the action of a single entity then we will take you seriously. Until then take you mythology and run away with it else mockery is the only thing you'll get from someone like me.

how did the universe come about sir?

sorry to intrude but how did said aliens/extraterrestrials come to be?

Just kidding!

If you want to find any book online, type its title in a Search Engine, along with the abbreviation "PDF."

If you don't find it, it is not online.

The man has been dead for nearly twenty years.

You might search File-Sharing Sites such as MEDIAFIRE and 4ShARED.

In Nigeria, you can probably find it on sale with GLENDORA or MANNABOOKS.

It is very unintelligent of you to say that you do not believe in teachings you have never read before.

This man has explained exactly how ALL forms of Spirituality work.

He did in forty years what the Protestant Churches could not do in 500 years.

He did it by putting his own neck on the line. (At one point, he got chased by a Mountain Lion, just because his Benefactor wanted him to learn something- namely, what people can do when they FOCUS their minds. He performed virtually SuperHuman athletic feats that night!)

You who never bothered to learn nor do any works at all, are going to criticize a PhD in Anthropology, who did such risky field work, all by himself?

I already know about such 'schools of thought', just didn't know about your 'mentor' nor any of his works...

this is sad, though I feel the state is just capitalising on the fact that FG pays NPower staffs so its cheap/free labour.

EVERY ISRAELITE COULD TRACE THEIR ANCESTRY BACK TO ADAM AND EVE.

Do you understand the significance of that?

NO! EVEN BECAUSE ATHEISTS ARE ALL IDIOTS, INCAPABLE OF THINKING LOGICALLY WITH ALL RELEVANT FACTORS, SO YOU DISCARD THE ONES THAT TAX YOUR LOW-WATTAGE BRAINS TOO MUCH, AND THEN ACCUSE GOD OF BEING "ILLOGICAL!"

All Israelites carried with them list of all of their male ancestors going back to Adam and Eve.

They surely had stories about them that were not in any books. These would be useful in identifying impostors.

ALL CHILDREN OF ISRAEL RECOGNIZED THAT THEY CAME FROM THREE NOTABLE ANCESTORS, WHO OWED THEIR EXISTENCE TO GOD:

ADAM: who was created directly by God from earth.

NOAH: whose life was spared by God in The Great Flood.

ABRAM: who had no legitimate son by age 99, his wife SARAI being barren by age 90.

GOD MANIFESTED TO THEM PHYSICALLY, AND INFORMED THEM THAT HE WOULD ENABLE THEM TO HAVE A SON.

All Children of Israel believed themselves to be the descendants of this child, ISAAC, and of his son, YACOB.

YACOB wrestled with a Spirit Being, who Blessed him, and gave him the Name: ISRAEL.

One of his TWELVE SONS became instrumental in saving their whole clan through PRECONITIVE ABILITY. However, this lead to their descendants becoming SLAVES to an EMPIRE, unable to leave.

GOD raised up a BENJAMINITE named MOSES, and backed him with UNPRECEDENTED TELEKINETIC POWERS, and liberated the Children of ABRAHAM, ISAAC, and YACOB as he had predicted to ABRAM, centuries before.

THE DEAL WAS THAT THESE DESCENDANTS SERVE HIM, AND HIM ALONE.

Given their HISTORY, which they ALL BELIEVED IN and KNEW, how would it make any sort of SENSE for them to LEAVE The GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC, and YACOB, and worship ANOTHER GOD, who was NEVER there for them, and who was only going to EAT THEIR SOULS at their deaths- whereas HE was offering them ALL of the Power He displayed through MOSES- THE THIRD ATTENTION?



THE THIRD ATTENTION: once one has passed the FIFTH stage of SPIRITUAL ENERGY REHABILITATION, instead of attaining a SIXTH level, one's Energy instantly "JUMPS" to a TENTH level.

In this state one can TALK TO GOD on a ONE-TO-ONE basis, AND LIVE.

Such persons CANNOT DIE, nor be KILLED.

This is what YAHSHUA called "EVERLASTING LIFE," and is what YAHWEH GOD ALONE had been STEERING MANKIND TOWARD THE WHOLE TIME.

How do YOU express your GRATITUDE TO GOD for this UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY, offered ny NO ONE ELSE?



THAT'S RIGHT: YOU BELIEVE THAT THE APPROPRIATE RESPONSE TO THE LORD GOD STRICTLY PROTECTING THE INTEGRITY AND USEFULNESS OF THE SECOND AND THIRD ATTENTION MESSENGERS HE COMMANDED TO BRING THIS POWER TO YOU, TO STOP YOUR PAIN, TO HEAL YOU, AND TO ENABLE YOU TO ATTAIN IMMORTALITY, IS TO COMPARE HIM TO YOUR RETARDED GIRLFRIENDS!



YOUR FOOLISHNESS AND STUPIDITY IS AS EXPECTED OF AN IGNORANT ATHEIST, WHO WAS NEVER EDUCATED IN DIVINE WISDOM.

You are a RETARD, and, though it was YOUR DUTY to BETTER yourself, you didn't. HAPPENS.

BUT WHAT EXCUSE HAVE THE WORSHIPPERS OF GOD FROM ANTIQUITY HAD, MEN, WOMEN, CHILDREN- FATHERS, MOTHERS, SONS, DAUGHTERS- TO WHOM RAPE WAS A CLEAR-AND-PRESENT-DANGER, IN EVERY GENERATION, TO BEHAVE AS IF IT WERE NOT THEIR PROBLEM??!

YAHSHUA expressed ANGER when HE came to town one day, and was about to HEAL somebody, and the people were ALL in AGREEMENT:

"IF YOU HEAL THAT GUY [i]TODAY, WE WILL KILL YOU- 'COZ IT'S THE WRONG DAY!"

Yahshua was like:

"YOU GUYS ARE SO RIGHTEOUS- STONING SABBATHBREAKERS FOR OBEYING THE SAME-DAY COMMANDMENT TO ALLEVIATE EVEN OUR ENEMY'S BURDENS- WHAT DAY DO YOU HEAL PEOPLE ON, THEN?"

There was a young man, who was DEVIL-POSSESSED since CHILDHOOD: the NINE Disciples tackled his case, while YAHSHUA showed PETER, JAMES, and JOHN what THE THIRD ATTENTION AND IMMORTALITY look like.

THEY WERE READY TO STONE THE NINE- because they didn't SOLVE THEIR Problen for them in sixty minutes or less!

Whereas, NONE OF THEM had done anything about it.

Your description of 'ATTENTIONS' is based/sourced on/from?
