A good one

The truth remains that Africa is gone and gone.

In 2025, even the Yorubas don’t even know what Isese means… to them, it is evil and Jesus Mohammed is their lord and savior.
Talk of a lost race!
Chai

But it’s pathetic that with all the resources available to do simple research, or just use a little particle of atom of brain left in their head, they can’t… how will a people worship something that was used to enslave and colonize you… worst of all, the colonizers no longer follow this path.
If you have white friends, or white colleagues… you will realize they don’t even carry Jesus. They rarely or don’t even go to church. They don’t even have Bible

But a full grown adult in Nigeria will be singing and be saying the god of Abraham, Jacob and Isaac they will serve. What of the God of your ancestors?
God of people that don’t bear your names

Lastly, why Africans no to get sense like that… especially this generation of pastor jerrry followers and co… the word “Ancestor” automatically means evil to them.. like just tell them, your ancestors be blessed, they will say God forbid, wetin be ancestors!!! Like for real man!! These people are krazzzzy… and they want to have children and great grandchildren… and descendants, not knowing that they are the ancestors of their own future descendants…

And lastly for the last time

See the Queen Elizabeth whey bring Christianity come meet you, watch a video of Queen Elizabeth undergoing her ancestral initiation… same people whey carry missionaries give you oo, they are practicing their own. Even when she died, they did their traditional rites for the queen….

See below

Did your ancestors use phones, internet? Why are you using it? Look at the way you are hyperventing for what you are guilty of? Did your ancestors speak English? Did they write in English? Practice what you preach hypocrite.

The Bible never specifically addresses the issue of abortion. However, there are numerous teachings in Scripture that make it abundantly clear what God’s view of abortion is.



Jeremiah 1:5 tells us that God knows us before He forms us in the womb. Psalm 139:13–16 speaks of God’s active role in our creation and formation in the womb. Exodus 21:22–25 prescribes the same penalty—death—for someone who causes the death of a baby in the womb as for someone who commits murder. This law and its punishment clearly indicate that God considers a baby in the womb to be just as much a human being as a full-grown adult. For the Christian, abortion is not a matter of a woman’s right to choose to have a baby. The baby is already present and living. Abortion is a matter of the life or death of a human being made in God’s image (Genesis 1:26–27; 9:6).

What does the Bible say about abortion? Simply put, abortion is murder. It is the killing of a human being created in the image of God.

A common argument against the Christian stance on abortion is “What about cases of rape and/or incest?” As emotionally difficult as it would be to face a pregnancy resulting from rape or incest, is the murder of a baby the solution? Two wrongs do not make a right. Intentionally killing the unborn child is not the answer. Also, keep in mind that having an abortion is itself a traumatic experience. It seems nonsensical to add an additional trauma to the woman. Too, abortion can be a means of rapists covering up their crimes. For example, if a minor is molested and becomes pregnant and then is taken to have an abortion, the molestation could continue without penalty. Abortion will never erase the pain of rape or incest, but it very well may add to it.

A child who is conceived through rape or incest is made in the image of God the same as any other human. That child’s life should be protected just as much as the life of any other human being. The circumstances of conception never determine the worth of a person or that person’s future. The baby in this situation is completely innocent and should not be punished for the evil act of his or her father. Depending on the situation, the mother might choose to raise the child. If she does not already have a community of support, she can turn to many organizations and local churches prepared to walk alongside her. Or she might place the child for adoption. There are many families, some unable to have children on their own, who stand ready to receive and love a child from any background.

It’s also important to keep in mind that abortions due to rape or incest account for a very small percentage of total abortions: only 1 percent of abortions can be traced to cases of rape or incest (Torres and Forrest, cited by Physicians for Reproductive Choice and Health and the Alan Guttmacher Institute in An Overview of Abortion in the United States, October 2001, www.abortionfacts.com/facts/8#cite-1, accessed 9/9/21).

Another argument often used against the Christian stance on abortion is “What about when the life of the mother is at risk?” Honestly, this is the most difficult question to answer on the issue of abortion. First, let’s remember that such a situation is exceedingly rare. Dr. Landrum Shettles, a pioneer in the field of in vitro fertilization, wrote, “Less than 1 percent of all abortions are performed to save the mother’s life” (Landrum Shettles and David Rorvik, Rites of Life, Zondervan Publishing House, 1983, p. 129). Dr. Irving Cushner, Professor of Obstetrics at the UCLA School of Medicine, when testifying before the U. S. Senate, was asked how often abortions are necessary to save the life of the mother or to preserve her physical health. His response: “In this country, about 1 percent” (testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on the Constitution of the United States on October 14, 1981, quoted in The Village Voice, July 16, 1985).

Other medical professionals go further, stating that abortion is never necessary to save the mother’s life. Over 1,000 OB-GYNs and maternal healthcare experts signed a statement in 2012, saying, in part, “As experienced practitioners and researchers in obstetrics and gynaecology, we affirm that direct abortion—the purposeful destruction of the unborn child—is not medically necessary to save the life of a woman” (Dublin Declaration on Maternal Health, www.dublindeclaration.com, accessed 9/9/21). Further, in 2019, “medical leaders representing more than 30,000 doctors said intentionally killing a late-term unborn baby in an abortion is never necessary to save a mother’s life” (www.lifenews.com/2019/03/05/30000-doctors-say-abortion-is-never-medically-necessary-to-save-a-mothers-life, accessed 9/9/21).

Second, let’s remember that God is a God of miracles. He can preserve the life of a mother and her child despite all the medical odds being against it. Third, even in the small percentage of abortions performed to save the life of the mother, most of those abortions can be prevented by an early induced delivery of the baby or a C-section. It is extremely rare that a baby must be actively aborted in order to save the life of the mother. Ultimately, if the life of the mother is genuinely at risk, the course of action can only be decided by the woman, her doctor, oftentimes the father of the child, and God. Any woman facing this extremely difficult situation should pray to the Lord for wisdom (James 1:5) as to what He would have her do.

The overwhelming majority of abortions performed today involve women who simply do not want to have the baby. As indicated above, just 2 percent of abortions are for the reason of rape, incest, or the mother’s life being at risk. Even in these more difficult 2 percent of instances, abortion should never be the first option. The life of a human being in the womb is worth every effort to preserve.

For those who have had an abortion, remember that the sin of abortion is no less forgivable than any other sin. Through faith in Christ, all sins can be forgiven (John 3:16; Romans 8:1; Colossians 1:14). A woman who has had an abortion, a man who has encouraged an abortion, and a doctor who has performed an abortion—all can be forgiven by faith in Jesus Christ.

If they never existed before the creation can the same God return them to their former state of oblivion when they proved worthless or he must keep them alive somewhere tormenting them for not proving worthy of the purpose for which they were created? John 3:16

It is called justice. People are sent to hell as a punishment for their sins. Sin against an eternal God is everlasting punishment.

Matthew 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

tctrills:
I am asking from a Christian perspective. Before our birth and our lives as humans, did we preexist? What does the bible say about this?
Many religions believe that man is an ancient being that preexists earth life does Christianity agree?

No human life did not prexist his mortal life. When God created Adam he made all the component of human life in him, which was to be subsequently activated and formed into humans later on.
So human life begins when the seed of the man and of the woman unite together from then the formation process begins.

She should make peace with God by accepting Jesus Christ as her Lord and saviour so that she would receive the gift of salvation. Perhaps God may spare her life. Life is brief so that most important choice a man could make is to accept eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ.

Michael547:
So if I see that you would make a choice today to be a thief before you were even created, can you avoid being a thief today?

yes. Even if the person cannot stop being a thief buy you could help him.

Michael547:
So when God said he would die, did God tell him that he would go to hell fire?

yes, God told them they would die. Hell fire is also part of that dieing.

Gmone:
Read to the end with scriptural reference. Bible is guild to Christians

The problem of Roman catholics is not speaking in tongues, it is about knowing the truth.
Tongues are not what you just speak it is an utterance given by the Spirit. The Tongues that the apostles spoke were understood by men. Paul said if nobody can understand your language then keep quiet and spake to God only. The only advantage of Tongues is that people of other Tongues can understand the gospel but however if that purpose is not fulfill then it just become self edification. The idea that Tongues makes you spiritual or mature or confuse the devil or make you pray longer is not taught in the scripture.
By the way not every Christian speak Tongues in the early church. The reason why Tongues were common then was because it was a sign to the unbelieving jews but since the gospel shifted from the Jewish nation the gift of Tongues became very rare.

Michael547:
If God saw that Adam would eat the fruit before creating him, was it possible for Adam to obey God by not eating the fruit?

It was possible for Adam to obey but he disobeyed not the less. God's sees the choice people make but he doesn't make the choice for them instead he provides a way so that even if they make bad choices they could still be redeemed. We all make bad choices nobody is perfect acknowledging this and turning to God makes all the difference but people would not turn to God for help because of pride hence God leaves them to their device but however not without enough warnings through the human conscience and otherwise couple with his patience.

Michael547:
Did God tell Adam that he would go to hell fire for rejecting him?

God said he would die. Death is not only physical but spiritual.
Hell is a place for the dead, however anybody that die separated from God would be in torment because he or she is separated from God ( spiritual death).

Yes the apostles spoke known language and by the way not every Christian has the gift of tongue.
Tongues are actually known languages that can be interpreted not empty gibberish.

author=Kalulu44 post=136332209]

Yes the sign has being here but the signs are getting more and more serious, God is patient with people like you so you don't perish however there is only so much he forbearance can go. Another thing is this, before the end comes people all over the world must hear the gospel so that nobody can have an excuse.

Michelle70:
Calm down, there are 5000 religion.
All of them believe they are the true religion and u better make up ur mind that even if u survive Christianity, u will still go to hell in the other 4999 religions

Atleast these 5000 religions tells you there must be a God or divine being/beings all of them can not just be wrong right? It is your responsibility to search for the truth. But if you think you don't need God or you chose a God that you think resonate with you instead of seeking for the true God then it is on you not God.

Urgent1Million:
So your god already knows that he'll send me to hell (he knows the end from the beginning) and he went ahead to create me so he can have someone to send to hell?
Seems your god and the "devil" are in a kind of partnership.
Except of course your god doesn't know the end from the beginning (is not omniscient) as you people claim.
And why would god even send anyone to hell for their sins when he has already sacrificed his only son to himself because of the sins of the whole world?
Maybe the sacrifice didn't work after all that's why you people are left to fight for your salvation yourself.
It's such a shame that some of you can not even sit down to think with your brains and ask questions.
What a waste of white matter in so many skulls!!

You think you are smarter by insults?
There is no connection between God knowing you actions and your actions itself. Infact God knows that you will sin and this sin will take you to hell that is why he planned to salvation for you but if you reject his help then justice will prevail you will bear your sin.

Michelle70:
So I am not a Christian, I don't believe in ur God and I don't confess him to be my lord and saviour.
Does that mean I am going to hell or heaven?

every human will be judged and condemn to hell for their sin. The only offer of salvation freely is Jesus christ, no other religion offers you that, atheism, agnosticism, humanism etc does not offer salvation from sin only Jesus christ of Nazareth.

Hi everyone, if you accept God's salvation which is Jesus christ, God will give you eternal life, meaning even if you die now you will be with Jesus and at the resurrection you will be raised again not just perfect but immortal and glorified.

Kalulu44:
Brother no vex, you go wait for that great day tire. The day you die and exit this world is the end of your own world and there's nothing like any great day coming

The signs of what is happening in the world right now shows something shocking is going to take place soon. Before the day of Jugdment there is going to be a one world government where people would be initiated through a mark to be part of and all those who refuse would be hunted down and brutally murder. The signs are everywhere.

jiggyman:
Loool, its gonna be chaotic on the last day. Because believers of one religion will have to divide themselves to fit into the 99 other religions hell fire.
Its well

No, even in Islam, Jesus is called the Messiah meaning the chosen one of God. The evidence of Jesus life, death, burial and resurrection show that Jesus is The Truth.

Michelle70:
When has punishing me for an apple I did not eat became justice?

His justice may be absolute but that doesn't make it right.

Nobody is punishing you for an apple, you can only receive the repercussion of your sin not anyone else.

Urgent1Million:
The whole story about god, heaven and hell was poorly made up.
God made a man, then a woman and loved them.
Then he (set them up) placed a tree with fruits that was capable of causing them death (according to god) OR opening their eyes to recognize good and evil (according to the serpent).
It turned out the serpent was right.
God lied!
God then chased them out of the garden and cursed them on their first offence (absolutely incapable of forgiveness).
God then destroyed the descendants of the sinners (Adam and Eve), leaving only the righteous man (Noah) and his family.
But Noah's righteousness didn't get to us. It is Adam's and Eve's sin that we still inherit.
Oh wow!! 😂😂😂
Then god offered his only son (don't ask how he got the son) as a sacrifice to himself (ritual killing) so he (god) can forgive us our sins and take us to heaven.
But he's all powerful and can do all things easily!
Alright, we move...
And his son (jesus) is god?
So if I rephrase;
God offered himself as a blood sacrifice to himself so that himself can forgive us our sins and take us to his own heaven!
Interesting, huh??
Hang on a sec...
The "devil" was with god in heaven and became rebellious. God fought the devil but couldn't defeat him. But god is the all-powerful!!
He sent the devil to earth (where god's beloveth children are) so that the children can fight and defeat the devil by calling god's name.
So god couldn't defeat the devil while face to face with him, but commands his children (much less powerful) to call him so he can defeat the devil for them in proxy?
Hello sense, where are you?
And top on the list of the conditions for god's children to go to heaven is for them to defeat the devil (resist his temptations aka sin), else they are thrown into hell!
How convenient!

Everyone will stand before the judgement throne of God give account of their works including thoughts, what you wrote and all words spoken.
God is not sending you to hell because Satan tempted you or because of Adam's sin but because of your own sinful works, thoughts and words.

Dogalmighty17:
It is estimated that about 112 billion people have existed in the history of earth. There are less than 8 billion alive currently. It goes to say that less than 3% of anyone who has ever existed has heard the gospel of Christ. So what happens to all the other people who never heard anything like the gospel?

you are wrong the evidence of God is everywhere but people either chose to reject it or twist it because they hate God anyone who truly seek God even would find him but no one seek God but instead everyone chose to go their own way, so God is just to grant them their heart desires.

lamentor78:
Self righteousness is what will kill most Christians, they see themselves as exco of heaven executives that knows who goes to hell or heaven. When they don't know where they will end up.

It is self righteous for any human to think he can make heaven by his works outside of God's salvation.

Michelle70:
God who created the ever expanding universe, devise all the known laws of physics, mathematics etc, the paragon of human existence is so interested on this tiny dot planet because of an apple that none of us ate?

Such a God is a psychopath just trying to blame us for his wrath, petty and is not worthy of my worship

When has justice become petty? Is justice against rapist. Murderers, ritualist, petty?
The existence of justice proves that God is the ultimate justice that means nothing will escape is judgement and that is awesome and dreadful at the same time.

IAM4BAT4plus4:
So anybody wey no accept say Jesus is God is going to Christian hellfire?









40 characters, where are you?

No anybody that reject God's salvation is lost. Jesus is God in the flesh.

Thunderfayamods:
Rubbish! There is nothing like hell fire.
40 characters 40 characters 40 characters.

The existence of justice points to the existence of an ultimate just being.
Jesus said the punishment of eternal judgment is forever!
Between Jesus and those rejecting his word who is dependable? From all metrics Jesus is more reliable than any human past, present or future.

adamkkk:
one question av been asking for years, why did God create the forbidden fruit, knowing it will bring temptation and ultimate death to man ?

God created the tree of knowledge of Good and evil so man by obeying him could show is gratitude and loyalty to him for creating a perfect world but unfortunately man became ungrateful same way humans are displaying their ungratefulness by rebelling against God today.

KingCold:
You live up to 53 years, your sins may amount to 35 years, since your first 18 years you were young and didn't know any better, but your punishment is eternal? Doesn't sound fair to me..The punishment doesn't fit the crime.. Your sins are finite, yet the punishment is infinite....

If you live on earth and ignore the evidence of the creator inspite of the evidence all around then you are responsible and God is fair. Take note nobody is going to be saved by their good works, intellectually propensity etc only by depending on God's salvation which is Jesus christ.

cutecommend:
Do all the best you can by God's grace not to enter hell fire.

No best effort of man can keep themselves from hell and only means way is the acceptance of Jesus christ as our Lord to save us from sin in this life. That is the only way.

cutecommend:
God is a very merciful God and wants all sinners to accept Jesus Christ today and repent so that they won't burn in very hot hell fire....WHY DOES GOD SEND SiNNERS TO HELL FIRE AFTER THEY DIE?
Do you know that it was man that "initiated" himself to be going to hell fire? Adam and Eve made all human beings qualified to go to hell fire if they sinned. This happened because they ate the forbidden fruit, and eating the forbidden fruit leads to death (eternal death).

Genesis 2:17 "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die"

Man chose hell fire for himself by eating the forbidden fruit. Eating the forbidden fruit is like taking a qualification exam that makes one eligible for hell fire: but Jesus Christ came to make a way of escape through repentance.

No Adam did not qualify everyone for hell rather hell is a place of separation from God. Anybody that reject God are thrown into hell. Choosing a life without God and his saving work in our lives is equal to choosing hell.

Janosky:
1 Corinthians11:3
"God is Supreme over Jesus Christ "

God the father is Supreme over Jesus because of his humanity but however all creation is subject to Jesus such authority only belongs to God.

Your claim is not true.
1 Corinthians15:27
"Jesus Christ was not installed as king until after his death , resurrection & ascension.
1Corinthian 25:24-27 is in your bible nau .

I don't know how this relate to anything. Jesus took a the position of a servant and he still remains God's servant it is a role in took up when he volunteered himself for the work of salvation.

gohf:
"their authority" steep don't you used to say that they are all the same, that the son is the almighty? where you not trying to prove something that "they" are the same being because it is "the name"?

They are the same God but distinct persons. Having one name prove they are one in essence.

Image123:
Thank you, i do not speak of deeper knowledge or maturity. i speak of the basics of being saved, living as a child of God and preparing for eternity. You don't need deeper knowledge or maturity to be saved, you need faith. You don't need deeper knowledge or maturity to live, you need it to grow. And of course any child of God will spend eternity with God regardless of maturity and deep knowledge. A great percent of the old testament saints and those who met Him physically in the gospels did not know He is God.

Alright, yes in terms of being saved you right.
