AyinlaGbajumo:He is not buying it in 3 years. Everything would be worth more in 3 years. But also, who knows the future? Twitter could be worth nothing in 3 years. Many great companies have fallen over the years. Yahoo comes to mind. |
MadeINchenzen2:Lets be honest, for any girl who is an adult, pregnancy is a choice. I can understand 2 people having unprotected sex in the heat of the moment. But then, we know that pregnancy takes days and even up to a week to form. If the girl did not want to be pregnant, she would have prevented it with very cheap drugs. She refused to prevent it because she chose to be pregnant so why does she expect the man to be responsible for her choice. Now when the child is born, the man could take responsibility, that's another topic for another day. |
I beg to differ! In the same Bible is found God Himself, and His Word, Jesus Christ, directly refuting your claim. No where in the bible 2. If you believe Jesus Christ lied in [b]John 3 vs 1 - 8 , there isn't much that can be done by me in that. [/b] This verse never said that man those not have a spirit, that is your addition. tells of how Samuel was buried(in the ground ofcourse) in Ramah and then of the witch of Endor speaking of a spirit coming from the ground. The verse never claimed that Samuel did not how a spirit, how did you come about that? 4. Again, the spirit that returns to God at death is the breath of God which God implanted at creation into man and animals alike - that spirit is God's and returns to Him when we die. The bible never said the spirit was the breath God implanted to Adam and even if it was It only tells you that our spirit came from God. Now you said the other time that the spirit comes only to those born of God. You even quoted John 3.1-8 Do you see that it makes no sense now? If the spirit is only for the believers, was Adam a believer? The spirit of man, remains with man even after death and this spirit seems to belong only to those who have been granted eternal life by God as they are said to sleep in their graves after death. The righteous men of old for example are said to sleep as opposed to perishing in their graves. Jesus Christ alluded to the same when He spoke of Lazarus, one of His followers who had died. You are so controversial. You stated in the early paragraph that the spirit returns back to God. please go and review your doctrine. The bible teaches that our spirit returns to God. No single verse says that our spirits return to the earth. |
The dictionary does not corroborate your claim unfortunately. I made no claim, I only said what the bible claims. 2. Ofcourse those who belong to God are given spirits by God, this after they become of Him, but not from their birth. Jesus Christ did explain that much in [b]John 3 vs 5 - 8 where He outrightly tells us that the only birth one gets from being born is the physical kind (from the dust of this earth), a spiritual birth taking place long after that - not every human being will experience this spiritual birth. [/b] again you are wrong. No verse in the bible teaches that man has no spirit until they become born again.And like in the case of Samuel of old, that spirit of man does not depart from him when he dies - it stays sleeping with the owner in the grave until God's calls Him forth. The bible did not teach tha Samuel's spirit slept in the dust. What we are here contending is the claim that man is spirit from his creation, a claim which isn't scriptural. It is read the scripture. Ecclesiastes 12 The spirit returns to God after death. Zechariah 12bGod and formed the spirit of man within him. Job 32:8 There is a spirit in man. Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, Acts 7:59 They went on stoning Stephen as he called on the Lord and said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!” 1 Corinthians 2:11 For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? James 2:26 For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. |
I do understand what a stranger or pilgrim is, however what I don't accept is the leap you make to conclude that such a one is not from this earth. No leap was made here sir. Its just understanding that strangers and pilgrims are people coming from another place. Please refer to dictionary for better understand. We are stangers on earth only means that we came from somewhere else. That should be simple enough. I am afraid again you are mistaken. God's breath is God's Spirit, not man's. Zechariah 12 1 The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel, saith the Lord, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. The bible clearly teaches that man has a spirit. it was formed by God hence we came from God. If you need more references about the spirit of man, let me know. |
Is it your understanding is that being a stranger/pilgrim on earth means you are not from earth? I am afraid I don't quite follow your logic here at all. If you don't understand that a stranger or pilgrim is someone coming from somewhere else then I cant help you further. Anyways, as for what is written in Ecclesiastes, yes God's breath of life which He breathed into man and animals alike returns to God when man dies - His breath is spirit. And that which is of the dust, man whom God made from the dust returns to dust. I am happy you know that our spirits came from God so we agree. |
Kobojunkie:Ecclesiastes 12:7 and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. Hebrew 11.15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. Hebrew 11.13 13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. The bible tells us that we are strangers and pilgrims on the earth so we know that we originated from somewhere before our lives on earth. |
Larrysung:You should have confirmed before tying fake news. Its a shame that we would just be tying fake news up and down without confirming first. Anyway, you are better than many who would not even acknowledge their errors. Go and sin no more. |
kenzysmith:Going to brothels is just a symptom of your problem. I personally don't think that your problem is even sex or sex related. You have to give yourself a fresh start. Its true people look down on you but its unfortunate that you also look down on yourself. You still have 8 months left in the year, its enough time to rebrand yourself professionally. Choose a particular field or skill then study and learn for the next 8 months. You are lucky you got your mother's support, treasure it. As you rebrand yourself and start learning again, her support would be vital. Next year, you would get a better job and win back your lost respect. You are still very young with your whole life in front of you. |
cornelboy:What if those they taught you to hate don't hate you back? Have you never been wrong before? What if you find out that you are the one in error and not those who you thought were your enemies? How does one know the truth? Have you never changed an opinion about what you thought was true? |
cornelboy:No one has a monopoly of the truth. If we all claim we know the truth then what is your purpose of starting the thread. Everyone would stick to their truth. If we all are like you, the world would be filled with haters and enemies. No 2 churches agree in all things so we all should be hating ourselves. I don't subscribe to that. Let us disagree but be respectful. |
cornelboy:If thats how you feel good for you. But if we all call each other names when we feel the other is wrong, we would never have a sensible discussion. that was why I did not reply your insult. If I told you that you were a fool, you would have said something worse then we continue like that. But like I said, you are still the best among your peers. I commend your parents for that. |
achorladey:That why I try to see it as fun and not take it personal. I join the discuss when I want and ignore the insults. |
cornelboy:I take you as brothers |
achorladey:yea i remember that guy |
cornelboy:The way you guys make everyone an enemy is just awful. We can do better. As Christians , we can be temperate in all things. We should disagree, it does not make us bad people or enemies of God. But this is not war. |
cornelboy:Whatever makes you sleep at night. I guess you now have a psychiatrist degree. |
achorladey:i know. Now they know I am their member, lets see how that goes. |
cornelboy:Go back and read your post. when you begin a post with a particular church in mind and your call out other churches. clearly the aim was an online religious war |
SugarGirl44:Its not practicable in Nigeria. A good percentage of the population live below poverty. For many, a marriage could be an improvement on the financial state. This article is basically for the privileged ones with more choices in life. |
cornelboy:This thread began as a thread to embarrass Catholics and other Christians now its about which church I attend. I was even nice enough to tell you but you now want to see my pics. Why don't you just open a thread about me. |
cornelboy:Na you know my church, I guess we are cool now. I would start calling you my fellow brother. |
cornelboy:Nah keep perving |
achorladey:Well what you don't know, you cant tell. I am not sending him my pics |
Contango:Now you have achieved your life goal. I pray you dont die now but live many more years. |
MadeINchenzen2:What if quitting such a marriage means going without a livelihood or even a place to lay your head? |
achorladey:It seems cornelboy is an informant. |
cornelboy:You are not really being smart here, if I am not a member, I would simply go to the nearest watchtower and do a photoshoot. But I am truly scare to send my pics to you. |
cornelboy:Wait oh you don't feel uncomfortable requesting for stuff like this? |
[quote author=cornelboy post=111822129]Of course I can guess from your beliefs: I like it when I keep you guessing |
achorladey:See how low cornelboy is getting. This is becoming an obsession for him. |
cornelboy:You now want to see my face on this forum. What do you plan to do with my picture. Say the truth now. |

[/b] again you are wrong. No verse in the bible teaches that man has no spirit until they become born again.
