funmisticqueen:My pleasure. ![]() |
funmisticqueen:All of these supposed reasons in favor of our ancestors are simply under probability. They are not always true, same with the arguments against younger men. So? |
funmisticqueen:I'm not under obligation to give you reasons. I mean, there's no need of blowing trumpet. You need tested and trusted rod? Then come buy it, and do away with silly toys. ![]() |
mosesbola:There's no awesomeness anywhere here. All you're doing is to encourage our young girls to sleep with our ancestors.

Oh wow... quite a wonderful piece of fiction. |
funmisticqueen:Calm down. You can't sample some cheap rods out there and conclude that all are ineffective. Have you test mine? ![]() |
Nina4u:You mean Dickson can't do the job well without the help of a toy? Are you saying the rod is not strong enough?

What are these strange things you're saying to our ears?

Cinderella5:What is cheating if not having or engaging in sexual activities with one who is not your spouse? Now, whether Love Machine is an object or not, the fact remains that if one keeps using it, it qualifies as cheating! Or can you tell the difference between having sex with humans and toys? Cinderella5:Simple. Whatever that is not natural seems to draw that awkward feelings. ![]() |
Oh wow... Umahi is doing a nice job. ![]() |
Sarassin:No sir, I disagree. Jesus crucifixion occurred on Passover day, the 14th of Abib (or Nisan), the first month in God’s Sacred Calendar. This occurred in the year A.D. 31, in which Passover fell on a Wednesday. Many fail to consider the prophecy that the Messiah would be “cut off…in the midst of the week” (Dan. 9:26-27). Wednesday falls in the middle of the week—the very day upon which Passover fell in A.D. 31. According to the Roman calendar, this date was Wednesday, April 25. Proofs to Confirm the Year A.D. 31 The Sacred Calendar reveals that Passover occurred on a Wednesday in A.D. 31. By first establishing the day of the week and day of the month of Passover in 1931, we can arrive at the day of the week and day of the month of the Passover in A.D. 31. Precisely 100 19-year time cycles would have elapsed. Following this method helps greatly in computing the difference of elapsed time between the Roman and Sacred calendars during that 1,900-year time span. After this, we can safely calculate the month and week in which Passover fell in A.D. 31. Various Hebrew calendar software programs calculate when Passover or any other Holy Day fell in almost any year, even before A.D. 31. The following historical accounts will further validate the evidence presented here. The Decree of Artaxerxes In the seventh year of Artaxerxes, king of Persia, a decree was made to rebuild Jerusalem (Ezra 7). It followed the decree of Cyrus, in which he acknowledged that “the Lord God of heaven” had charged him “to build Him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah” (Ezra 1:2). Artaxerxes’ decree became significant because of a prophecy revealed to Daniel. Daniel 9:25 states, “Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troubled times.” This shows that there are 62 weeks + 7 weeks—69 prophetic weeks (or 483 days). Applying the day-for-a-year principle (Num. 14:34; Ezek. 4:6), we arrive at 483 years from the decree until the beginning of Christ’s ministry. The decree was made during the seventh year of Artaxerxes’ reign (457 B.C.). This date is historically well documented. By subtracting 457 from 483, we come to the year A.D. 26. When counting from B.C. to A.D., astronomers correctly add one year since there is no year “zero,” while historians and chronologists generally neglect to do this. Adding one year brings us to A.D. 27—the prophesied year of the beginning of the ministry of the Messiah. Luke 3:23 tells us, “And Jesus Himself began to be about thirty years of age…” The context of this verse is after John the Baptist had begun his ministry and just before Jesus began His. Since Jesus was 30 years old in A.D. 27, He would have been born in 4 B.C. Remember, we must add one year to compensate for no year “zero.” Thus, from 4 B.C., advancing 30 years brings us to A.D. 27. This leads us to the next historical proof that further confirms when Jesus was born. The Time of Herod’s Death Shortly after Christ’s birth, an angel warned Joseph in a dream that he and his wife Mary were to take the child and flee into Egypt. They stayed there until the death of Herod (Matt. 2:15). Christ was an infant less than one year of age when Herod died. Matthew 2:16 shows that Herod “slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.” Herod knew the child’s approximate age, but went beyond that age to include those up to age two, to make sure that the prophesied Messiah would not escape execution. To better establish the exact time of Herod’s death, we find in Josephus’ Antiquities of the Jews a reference to a lunar eclipse. A footnote in the Whiston translation of Josephus states, “This eclipse of the moon (which is the only eclipse mentioned by Josephus) is of greatest consequence for the determination of the time for the death of Herod…and for the birth and entire chronology of Jesus Christ. It happened March 13th, in the year of the Julian period 4710, and the 4th year before the Christian era” (Bk. XVII, ch. vi, sec. 4). According to Josephus, Herod died the following year, 3 B.C. Soon after Herod’s death, the angel instructed Joseph to return to the land of Israel with Mary and Jesus, who would have been about one year old. Time of Construction of the Temple As mentioned, Jesus was 30 years old (Luke 3:23) when He began His ministry in A.D. 27. Now, we will see how the chronology of the temple harmonizes with the chronology of Jesus: “Then answered the Jews and said unto Him, What sign show You unto us, seeing that You do these things? Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and will You rear it up in three days? But He spoke of the temple of His body” (John 2:18-21). This occurred on the first Passover during Christ’s ministry, in A.D. 28. The Jews said that the temple had been under construction for 46 years. By adding one year to compensate for no year “zero,” this means that the temple’s construction began in 19 B.C., the 18th year of Herod’s reign. In Antiquities, Josephus wrote, “And now Herod, in the eighteenth year of his reign… undertook a very great work, that is to build of himself the temple of God…” (Bk. XV, ch. xi, sec. 1). From 19 B.C., we advance 46 years since the beginning of the reconstruction of the temple, arriving at A.D. 28—the first Passover after the beginning of Christ’s ministry. And so on... Sir Sarassin, thank you for your efforts, which I want to believe are aimed at establishing the fact that indeed, Jesus walked the earth. Be rest assured that the true Church of God knows its history and can conveniently prove same. Regards. |
Uzoh, shey you don see wetin dickson caused you?

Rukkydelta:Thank you. But... it's time to rectify the wrongs; be kind to yourself. First of all wish yourself all those sweet things you've wished others, before I add my own blessings. ![]() |
Rukkydelta:You called it "stinginess", I called it 'reality'. Rukkydelta:There's absolutely no wishes of mine that will be of any good to you, seeing that you've already cheated yourself and wished others all of these good wishes but exclude your own self. Where is the love for your own self? ![]() |

cruchenuti:Bro, I want to sincerely believe that you can read and understand. I hope you wouldn't prove me wrong. Now tell me, where is the hatred? |
While I may not agree with a lot of claims by sir Sarassin, his assertion and quotes from history regarding James, brother of Jesus, as an apostle and later leader of the Church, is largely correct. Yes, James, Christ’s younger brother, also functioned as an apostle. We do know that a number of other men were later ordained apostles, with one likely filling the position that James (John’s brother, who was martyred in AD 42 by Herod) had held. Note that it was after James was martyred that the twelve (now eleven) went to the lost tribes of Israel—their primary mission (Matthew 10:5-6). It therefore simply means that someone must have taken James place to complete the Original Twelve, before they start their primary assignment. While it is true that these later apostles were ordained by the Original, it doesn't in anyway means that they are inferior or lower in rank to their predecessor, seeing that the office of an apostle is the highest in the Church of God, and all were directly responsible to Christ alone. As an example of no seniority among apostles, consider Peter who can be considered as the “Chief Coordinator” of the Church during its formative years, how he was confronted openly by Paul, a much later or younger apostle (Galatians 2:11-13). Now consider the council at the Headquarters Church in Jerusalem, in AD 49, as related in Acts 15. Verse 6 shows the apostles and elders gathered to consider the matter of circumcision. Peter led the council in their discussion and the decision was pronounced by James, Christ’s brother (13 & 19), and accepted by all present as the judgment bound on Earth and in heaven. Just as another example of an apostle after the Original Twelve, in his Church History of Brittany, Cressy writes, “St. Aristobulus [Romans 16:10], a disciple of…St. Paul in Rome, was sent as an Apostle to the Britons, and was the first Bishop in Britain, he died in Glastonbury, A.D. 99.” And speaking of Joseph of Arimathea, also in Britain (said to be the first that planted Christianity in Britain), Cressy wrote “‘Joseph was buried near the little wattle church he built [at Glastonbury].’ The lid of the sarcophagus said to have contained his remains bore the simple inscription: ‘To the Britons I came after I buried the Christ. I taught, I have entered my rest.’” cc: Scholar8200 |
