Why should he/she? A Christian shouldn't listen to such music in the first place. Anybody that does that is not a Christian

I have always said and continue to say that Christianity is baseless. It is impossible to live a "Holy Life" according to the Bible in this modern world.

If you claim you don't listen to those songs, fine. Now, what have you done to let people know that listening to those songs will send them to "Hell fire".

OP do you want to tell me that you don't listen to Olamide or Slim Case songs?

henryobinna:
nope, unless it's the 1gig for 200 naira 3 days and doesn't work on all sims

What's the code

henryobinna:
I'm really surprised only one person has mentioned 9mobile/etisalat...

If you care about speed, 9mobile is the best amongst mtn/glo/Airtel/9mobile. These I've tested, glo is the slowest followed closely by airtel then mtn. 9mobile has never disappointed me speedwise plus the data is never speedily exhausted.

Though their data is not cheap compared to the rest, but believe me it's worth it.

I currently use 9mobile. Do you know any special plan that is a bit cheaper than the normal data buying.

Glo N2,500 gives me 13gb per month. Plus 1.6gb extra data for 6 months for using a mifi

What's the code

UbiPetrus:
You are no longer a Christian and so I want to believe you no longer believe in the Bible as it makes no meaning to non Christians... Why then are you bothered about the extra biblical things that the Catholic Church teaches and believes in?
I mean, if you are not a Bible believing Christian, why does it bother you that another does an extra biblical thing?

Bible Believing. Lol. You think your Bible is some divine write up. The Old Testament is the original work of the inventors of Yahweh. The Romans copied and related their Jesus to it. Today the Jews don't believe Jesus to be any thing more than a mere mortal. They practice Judaism and uses the Torah which is the same thing as the Old Testament, so will you call them bible believing or not?

Do yourself a favor, open Wikipedia and Search for the page "Yahweh". Read and digest the article, it will do you a lot of good.

There is nothing flawed about it every mother of the king in the davidic dynasty is a queen mother having her own throne besides the king.

Mary gave birth to Jesus Christ a king according to Luke 1 of the davidic dynasty, his mother is automatically queen mother... Simple as ABC as for early Christians see them below.



St.Jerome tells us "We should realize that Mary means Lady in the Syrian language."

St. Peter Chrysologus says "The Hebrew name ‘Mary’ means ‘Domina’ [Lady] in Latin. The Angel therefore calls her Lady so that the Mother of the Lord, whom the authority of her Son made and caused to be born and to be called the Lady, might be without servile fear."

St. Ephrem has Mary say:
"Let Heaven sustain me in its embrace, because I am honored above it. For heaven was not Thy mother, but Thou hast made it Thy throne. How much more honorable and venerable than the throne of a king is his mother."

He also says of her:
"...girl, empress and ruler, queen, lady, protect and keep me in your arms lest Satan who causes evil exult against me, lest my wicked foe be glorified against me."

St. Gregory Nazianzen calls her "the Mother of the King of the entire universe" as well as "Virgin Mother who brought forth the King of the entire world."

Epiphanius of Constantinople said that the unity of the Church would be preserved "by the grace of the Holy and the con-substantial trinity and by the prayers of Mary, Our Lady, the holy and glorious Virgin and Mother of God."

St Andrew of Crete tells us "His ever-virgin Mother, from whose womb He, being God, took on human form, He today transports from earthly dwellings as Queen of the human race."
also : "the Queen of the entire human race faithful in reality to the meaning of her name, who is exalted above all things save only God himself."

St. Germanus says to her : "Be seated, Lady, for it is fitting that you should sit in a high place since you are a Queen and glorious above all kings."

St. John Damascene calls her : "Queen, ruler, and lady"

An Anonymous Eastern Father calls her "the perpetual Queen beside the King, her Son...whose glorious head is crowned with a golden diadem."

St. Ildephonsus of Toledo proclaims "O my Lady, my Ruler, Thou who governs me, Mother of my Lord...Lady among the handmaidens, Queen among sisters."

All the early Christians are Catholics, no surprises Christianity came from them. Why won't they praise and exalt her? You are all in the same wrong direction

MosesAlex:


Though it does not matter. Jesus is not a white man. Those from the Middle-East are not called white.
Christianity is more than the colour of the skin.
Acts 2
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.

12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this

Whereas I don't believe in Jesus, I don't also take the NT seriously. This kind of miracle is impossible, it can never happen. Only Technology can translate languages at a go. Someone cannot be speaking and different natives will be hearing it in their individual tounges. Going further, why can't modern pastors do same, instead it is "Yakayaka Yokoyoko" that is their own speaking in tongues

MosesAlex:





You are not Just Anti- Catholic! You are anti Christian

Lol. I really have not much against Christianity, the only thing is their belief that a white man is God and he died for their sins.

But Catholism, it was something I was in so now, I hate it with more than passion. I don't hate Catholics, it is the religion - Catholism - I hate. Catholism is different from Protestantism by a large margin

MosesAlex:


John 14:6
..... “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me".

Do you believe the above? If yes, and you an no longer a Christian, then you have been deceived.

I'm not a Christian simple, I don't believe Jesus to be any God or way to God. I believe in God.

MosesAlex:


So you are not a Christian, you claim you once were, so who is deceived here?

Is it only Christians that believe in God?

Someone called me anti-catholic, I may just have to accept the tittle. That aside, Catholics tell me what this prayer means and why is it even said.

Consecration to Mary

My Queen and my Mother, I give myself entirely to you; and to show my devotion to you, I consecrate to you this day my eyes, my ears, my mouth, my heart, my whole being without reserve. Wherefore, good Mother, as I am your own, keep me, guard me, as your property and possession.
Amen.

MosesAlex:


You claim you are not a Christian! But you believe in hell . Who really has strange beliefs?

You may need to buy a pair of glasses. I said "IF"

MosesAlex:


So you are no longer a christian! But you are clearly anti-Catholic? So what would motivate a non-Christian to make this type of post?

Yes Im anti-catholic if that is what you call it. I'm no longer a Christian doesn't mean I don't believe in God. Catholism is a religion of deception, try to justify it as you may but it doesn't change the fact. They do and believe in lot of things that are not biblical.

MosesAlex:

This quote shows how shallow your knowledge of the Catholic Church is, or the Missal

You would not find this in a Catholic Missal. You could as well snap the missal if you have proof that is in the missal.

OK. Wait on that

Clardo:
@ op u know nothing about d xtian faith bowing b4 an image or symbol that represents god is nt idolatory because u are adoring what it stands for
images are very powerful eg occultic people can harm a person if they perform a ritual on his/her picture even though that person is not physically present so it is in the opposite adoration done in front of an image which represents god goes to god. U can read joshua 7 6-7

You say, what was this bible verse talking about;

4.“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5. You shall not bow down to them or worship them" Exodus 20:4-5

Ubenedictus:
the quote is probably from someone's private meditations it is not from church documents, if you wish to know what that quote come from then you have to find the owner of the meditations. The titles aka the mysteries are catholic doctrines and I will gladly explain those.

The first mystery is the resurrection of Jesus found in all the gospels and in the writings of the early Christians.

Second mystery is the ascension of Jesus Christ into heaven found in the Bible and in the writings of early Christians.

Third the descent of the Holy Spirit found in acts 2 and in the writings of early Christians.

Fourth mystery is the assumption of Mary meaning that after Mary's time was completed was taken by Jesus Christ into heaven, in fulfilment of the enmity and victory prophesied in gen 3:15, this is not explicitly taught in the Bible but is found in the writings of early Christians and their liturgy.

Fifth is the coronation based on scripture that promised a crown for the Saints and upon the fact that Mary of mother of the davidic king and thus queen mother, it is thus based implicitly on scripture and is found in the writings of early Christians.

Lol. You want to explain mysteries I don't know to me? Me wey been carry Legion of Mary for head. You explained the first three glorious mysteries with staunch bible reference. But the explanation of the last two that has to do with the Virgin Mary is flawed. You cannot say that Mary is coronated upon the fact that she is the mother of the David king. I would also like to see the writings of the early Christians you so talked about, let's know where they get their inspirations from

Ubenedictus:
they are not from a catholic missal simple, highest it should be somebody's private revelation or meditations

You are saying it is not from a catholic missal abi?

Ubenedictus:
you should know the site you got it from because that isn't from any church document.

Check the thread I posted the source

uhuns:
op,
just form your type of worship
and get others saved.
.
leave the ones in darkness as defined by your belief
.
its called free will as given by God freely
.
people will read about you however you end.

when you start the act if contemplation, rightly or wrongly a guide will appear. leading you through your predefined steps, like Saul till he arrived Paul.

I have a strong conviction that you are lost,hungry and need guidance. will book a mass for your redemption
in my church.
.

.
may the Good lord provide illumination to our path towards righteousness. Amen,amen and Amen.

Lol. Book a Mass? Joker, if you are a Catholic and you can't justify that, you are a vain one.

PaChukwudi44:


I tireooo.I wonder where he got those quotations from

Lol. Do you really think I forged something like that. I'm aware not all Catholics have intense knowledge of the Catholic Church so I am not surprised. I just posted the source, you can check it out
https://www.catholic.org/prayers/mystery.php?id=3

Ubenedictus:
ok, I am a Catholic and I'll be happy to answer your questions about the Catholic faith. Sorry I haven't been on NL for sometime now and it seems my fellow Catholics haven't been around either.

First I have to ask you where you got those quotes from because those are not from the Catholic missal, I know because I do own a missal, it is not even from a recognisable church document so please where did you get them from.

Even though I can't place the quotes, the titles are referring to catholic doctrines which I believe, if you need the historical context of those doctrines (not some quotes that can't be placed) I'll happily provide just ask though I imagine I will be slow since I am pretty busy.

Alright visit >>
https://www.catholic.org/prayers/mystery.php?id=3

That's the source, you can check out the other mysteries too.

I need the historical context please

MrPRevailer:


If you think all believers are making a joke of christianity, you are sick.
The Bible has a standard. He that lives by the standard is a true christian.
Some made themselves pastors in other tomake money from believers , because people = money (not that God called them)
These are one of the types of people making a joke of Christianity. There are many others. Use your common sense. There are those who want to do as they please in the church or as a believer and boldly profess/practice thier deceptive doctrines. All these people are mentioned in the Bible and more. So if you are saying Christianity is a joke, then you are saying the Bible is also a joke, Jesus is a joke, God is a joke.
Which are nothing but lies

OK.

I believe you will agree that your church is in the light, so tell me, what Church do you attend?

Schynthe:
4.“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5. You shall not bow down to them or worship them" Exodus 20:4-5

It's self explanatory

Thank you

Jayhazard:
You say it as if it's the Bible itself that admonishes this disparity. Christianity itself promotes unison and like-mindedness, it's the self-acclaimed Christians that have made these separations to exist among themselves, and this is due to the diverse understanding of what is written in the Bible. This is why different doctrines abound in Christianity, and thus, different denominations are formed. That's why the popular Christian saying goes: know God and His word for yourself. So in essence, Christianity isn't a confusing and fruitless "religion" , it's the so-called believers that have made it seem like one. Know God for yourself and seek proper understanding of His word.

I'm sure you would agree that your church is in the light, so tell me, what Church do you attend?

asuustrike1:

Knowledge and understanding. The way God reveal to Abraham is different from Moses different from Jacob but same God. Though we have different denomination we are one body in Christ Jesus.

Are Jehovah witnesses and Catholics one body in Christ?

Is Christ Embassy and Deeper Life Bible Church one body in Christ?

Is the Olumba and Celestial Church one body in Christ?

asuustrike1:
Please leave Catholics alone. Every one should work out that salvation with fear and trembling ( Phil 2:12). If the poster is a Christian which I doubt but if he is this verse of the bible is what is meant for you ( Titus 3:9)

I won't avoid questions. I need answers

Funny

Where are the Catholics now we need them
