macof:
this is nice. . but I want you to realize that Adam and eve tale is a myth. . they never really existed. .. that's how the Jews were able to explain existence.

lemme ask you, have you ever wondered about the story of origin told by your own ethnic nation?

Your opinion is noted, boss. However, considering the story of origin by our own ethnic nation, that's entirely a matter of choice for me. I'll certainly learn of it when I'm in need of it. Thanks

deluxez12:

Btruth:
it's thus very helpful. God bless you.

God bless you too.

omobaekiti:
I am sorry if some find this as an insult but its not my intention to insult anyone,haven said that; I think those following the Abrahamic religions are Zombies. The glaring falsehood in those religion is appalling yet adherents would always find a way to justify the obvious lies and half truth...religion is what it is...just the figment of the imagination of man to keep his society sane. I am no atheist I believe there is a higher force in a parallel but higher plane than ours but I don't subscribe to one religion having the monopoly of truth as most Christians want us to believe.

Okay sir, your opinion. And I totally respect it.

okezed:
very good point but to add to what you said. The collection of the history was not in sequence some had been recorded before or after the preceding chapter

Okay sir.

larion:
I disagree with your response...

If you have got the answers, its better your share so we can learn and stop acting like a typical Nigerian lecturer.

We are always quick to condemning our lecturers but we are them and they are us.

Big ups to all teachers, lecturers and tutors in d house.

Back to the topic, Oga Splinz, elucidate on your comment, this time slowly, we are paying good attention

I've already done my explanation, sir. Read all my comments.

It wouldn't happen oga minister. Just forget that IGG.

Paulpaulpaul:
Pls, I gat no curiosity to satisfy and pls, there is nothing like the knowledge of this world.


Back to the matter, go read the story of the Church, read about the council of Nicaea. I prolly understand Il Timothy 3v16 than you

Saying there's no knowledge of this world has exposed you as a baby in knowledge. For just as there's day and night, so also exist the physical and spiritual world, with apparent difference in level of wisdom and understanding.

If you claimed to know a thing about 2 Timothy 3:16, then you wouldn't have made the heretical comment that the Scriptures were written in introspection. As for Church History, do not think that the Council of Nicaea was convened and presided by the true Church.

Paulpaulpaul:
Your first analogy of the whole world not being able to contain the information is ridiculous. Let's accept the truth that Genesis is written in introspection by Moses who didn't live in the Eden time.

Don't forget that the world was destroyed by God, maybe Noah kept some records in the ark. Moses was born and bred in Africa-Egypt. It would be surely be an inaccurate and disjointed piece. To this time, there was no known literacy, in fact, one fact says literacy started in Egypt.

[quote author=Paulpaulpaul post=45415641]There's no truth in saying Moses wrote in "introspection". For we know that all Scriptures were inspired by God, and is therefore, perfect. Now, as One who inspired the Bible, everything in it is just the way He wants it, i.e, enough to achieve His purpose. For example, I've shown you that not everything that Jesus did was recorded, but only what God deem as necessary in instructing His believers.

Now, God has given humans the mind power to reason and create, differentiating them from animals. So if anyone has an insatiable lust for worldly knowledge, the schools are there! Go, and the world will teach you its wisdom and understanding. If it appeals to you, then hold on to it.

Paulpaulpaul:
Don't come with that, don't even try it.

Adam and Eve gave birth to Cain and Abel but Cain killed Abel. God put a mark on him so that people of the world would not kill him. Genesis 4;14-15

Who are those people?


This universe is over 13billion years old. No record is accurate anymore.

Okay, lets reason together. You see, it is not everything that's recorded in the bible, i.e, the day to day activities of bible's characters. This style of writing is not only common in the bible, but also in the literatures of the world. Why? Here, "Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were EVERY ONE of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written"- John 21:25. That's it! If the world itself cannot contain just Jesus ministry alone, how much more detailing every thing about creation?

Now, the point I'm trying to make is this. In Genesis 4:1, Cain is born. The very next verse, Abel is born too. The point: after Cain was born, definitely, a lot of time has passed before Abel was born! Also note that it is in verse 1 that Adam knew his wife, and it is still in that verse that she bare Cain. So at least you should know that nine months has passed since Adam knew his wife before she bare Cain!

Coming down to verse 14, certainly, a lot of years has passed before Cain slew his brother, judging from the fact that one was a farmer and the other, a shepherd. That means they were adults who could take responsibilities!

So, it is very much possible and likely that at this stage of their lives, their parents may have already produce other children in order to be "fruitful and multiply". I hope this helps?

It's obvious you've not been reading your bible well. Now go back to Genesis and start all over. This time, read it very slowly and pay good attention.

MrTruth4real:
U are not from nd, no genuine nd person will read this post and make a stupid comment like urs. CU's wat his saying is truth. Look at warri for example, we use to be the major oil city in Nigeria but because of the violent by our youth almost all the oil company left, even the Almighty shell is no longer in warri.

Are you also mourning?

Of all their demands, I take out one. And that is the implementation of the National conference report.

Why are you grieving more than the bereaved, or you think we don't know that you're an impostor?

Seems you lot are yet to understand who Johnathan is. Why should he comment on the problems of Buhari when the most vicious attacks on his person has not warranted his response? Besides, it's totally not worth it, since he's the same person being vilify at every given time by this government. GEJ, please enjoy your peaceful life jare.

We will surely see the outcome of all these intimidation here and there.

Okay, Mr. Buhari wait until they cripple the country. Maybe by then, you'll think of what to do to address the situation.

Amberon:
Oh! I remember you! The mouthpiece of Joseph Prince. The very rude fellow who insults anyone with conflicting views. I hope you've changed.

1 John 1: 8 If we say that we have no sin , we deceive ourselves , and the truth is not in us.

1 John 1: 9 If we confess our sins , He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

10 If we say that we have not sinned , we make Him a liar , and His word is not in us.

Are you in any calling GOD a liar sir? Did I write the verses below? are they not in your bible?

1 Cortinthians 6: 9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators , nor idolaters , nor adulterers , nor homosexuals , nor sodomites ,

10 nor thieves , nor covetous , nor drunkards , nor revilers , nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

You are very erroneous for saying otherwise. Even Jesus said Narrow is the way. Jesus himself said all those who practice the above will be eternally damned, so who are you to say otherwise? are you God? or are you Heaven's gatekeeper?

I'll leave you with this

Hebrews 12:
14 Pursue peace with all people , and holiness , without which no one will see the Lord:

These people are very economical with the truth, as they always distort the truth of the bible to suit their beliefs, and avoid other views that doesn't support them. "See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ", the Apostle Paul warned, (Colossians 2:. Ask why God could do away with his perfect, righteous, holy and good Laws, and you'll never get an answer. Could God have done away with what expresses His qualities that He may bring forth exactly what, the opposite?

"You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men." And he said to them, "You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition", Jesus retorted, (Mark 7:8-9). What an indicting statement against the transgressors! Here is a damning verdict on these people, "In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men", verse 7. I tell you, anyone who's serious about salvation will certainly think twice about these statements of the Lord.

They believed that once you confessed the Lord and accept Him as your Lord and savior, then you're automatically saved, no matter what happens afterward. But I believed that I'll only be saved if I endures and overcomes to the end, (Matthew 10:22, 24:13, Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, 26, 3:5, 12, 21).

promise101:
The first mention of not inheriting the kingdom of God is found in Paul’s first letter to the church at Corinth. “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God" (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).

By saying the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God, Paul is stating that the wicked are NOT children of God, nor are they heirs of eternal life(believers) ( Romans 8:17). This DOES NOT MEAN that anybody who has ever committed one of these sins will be denied entrance to heaven.

What differentiates a Christian’s life from that of a non-Christian is the struggle against sin and
the ability to overcome it, NOT as way to look righteous but as a way to heed his body to the service of God.

A true Christian who is under grace will always repent(change of mind, this is different from prayer of forgiveness) which comes through GODLY SORROW that he did something bad, and will always KEEP ON BELIEVING and RELYING on Jesus christ for his righteousness, and as well always resume the struggle against sin, as a way of mortifying the flesh and subjecting it to the knowledge of christ. And not as a way of establiahing HIS OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS. AND THIS DOES NOT CALL FOR WORKS OF SINLESS PERFECTION(law of right living) TO LOOK RIGHTEOUS BEFORE GOD.

Phil 3:9
"And that I may [ACTUALLY] be found and known as in Him, NOT HAVING ANY [SELF- ACHIEVED] RIGHTEOUSNESS that can be called MY OWN, based on my obedience to the Law’s demands (ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired), but possessing that [GENUINE RIGHTEOUSNESS] which comes THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST(the Anointed One), the [TRULY] right standing with God, which comes from God by [saving] FAITH." (AMPC)


But the Bible gives no support for the idea that a person who perpetually and UNREPENTANTLY(without having a change of mind)
ENGAGES in sin can indeed be a Christian. The 1 Corinthians passage lists sins that, if indulged in CONTINUOSLY, identify a person as not being redeemed by Christ, because of his UNREPENTANT behaviour.

The Christian’s response to sin is to hate it, repent of it, and forsake it. We STILL struggle with sin, but by the power of the Holy Spirit who lives in us, we are able to resist and overcome sin.

The hallmark of a true Christian is the decreasing presence of sin in his life, BUT NEVER SINLESS PERFECTION. As Christians grow and mature in the faith, sin has less and less of a hold on us. Of course, sinless perfection is IMPOSSIBLE in this life, but our hatred for sin becomes greater as we mature. Like Paul, we are distressed that sin STILL EXISTS in our flesh, causing us at times to do what we don’t want to do and looking to Christ for relief from this “body of death” ( Romans 7:18-25).


If a person ACTIVELY, PERPETUALLY, and UNREPENTANTLY(with no godly sorrow) lives a homosexual lifestyle, the lifestyle of a thief, a greedy lifestyle, a drunken lifestyle, etc., it is not possible for such a person to be a Christian, and such a person will definitely not inherit the kingdom of God.


Saved by grace, living by grace. It is all about Jesus.

Seems you're beginning to heed the advice of Apostle Peter that I offered you, as you've begin to see SIN as that which exist and what Christians strive to overcome. Now, by implication, you're tacitly recognizing the Law, since the absent of the Law equal no SIN.

You see that Law (Ten commandments) described as holy, righteous and good? I tell you, it stands forever whether you like it or not, because it is the express reflection of God! Do not think that we're anti-grace, no! We know what grace is, and its work of salvation. But grace wasn't given as a LICENSE to transgress the laws of God, but rather as an UNMERITED favor for salvation, in that, no one could ever atone for his sins and therefore be saved. So then, GRACE is never worked for!

The psalmist wrote, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path"- Psalm 119:105. This is the work of the Law! It leads your way and light your path, i.e, that you may know whether you're on track or you've gone astray! Listen, "How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word. With my whole heart I seek You; let me not wander from your COMMANDMENTS!"- Psalms 119:9-10. Now know why the Law is holy, righteous and good? Because it makes your way pure (it is your compass), and therefore must not be discarded!

So, if you claimed to have the righteousness of God through grace, then definitely, the righteousness of God through grace will certainly agrees with the righteousness of the Law! Or did righteousness of the Law not emanate from the same God who offers righteousness through grace? Be the judge.

Is this talk or what?

Who take this nitwit serious?
