Coco diva: I really don't want to go into a long convo with you cos I percieve your level of understanding already.but tell me if the word xtian was not first used as a form of mockery to the disciples by the jews. Another christ indeed.
u're just showing ignorance about christianity.This is not the place for a long convo anyway.Everyone is entitled to remain in their ignorance.That's why it's a free world.

Jarus: Funnily, the reverse is the case. You guys definitely celebrate conversion more than Muslims, to the extent of fabricating sef. The widely circulated ex BH and another one said to be a Kuwaiti prince are cases in point.

In any case, I actually don't need a Janet Jackson or any conversion, more matter how high profile, to validate my religion for. My common sense is enough.
Common sense cannot take a man to heaven.

Are u seeking knowledge or are u just displaying ignorance.Don't tell me your knowledge even in this generation is not more than that of Nicodemus.
Jesus said,'If I have spoken to you of earthly things and ye believe not,how shall ye believe if I speak to you of heavenly things'.

You asking this question shows u are a 'nepios'!

Islam › Re: Muhammad cannot be the Comforter by thorpido(m): 12:41pm On Apr 01, 2013
vedaxcool: 2. Ur second point is quite laughable the word allos means so many things that the muslims interpretation will hold regardless:

allos: other, another
Original Word: ἄλλος, η, ον
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: allos
Phonetic Spelling: (al'-los)
Short Definition: other, another,
different
Definition: other, another (of more
than two), different.

Now Jesus clarifies an important difference between him the current comforter and the next:


John 16:7-14 "Nevertheless I tell you the
truth; It is expedient for you that I go
away: for if I go not away, the Comforter
will not come unto you; but if I depart, I
will send him unto you. And when he is
come, he will reprove the world of sin,
and of righteousness, and of judgment:
Of sin, because they believe not on me;
Of righteousness, because I go to my
Father, and ye see me no more; Of
judgment, because the prince of this
world is judged. I have yet many things
to say unto you, but ye cannot bear
them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit
of truth, is come, he will guide you into
all truth
: for he shall not speak of
himself; but whatsoever he shall hear,
[that] shall he speak: and he will shew
you things to come. HE SHALL GLORIFY ME:
FOR HE SHALL RECIEVE OF MINE, and shall
shew [it] unto you."

Jesus says he has many to say but they cannot bear that the comforter will guide them to all truth meaning this coming comforter will be bring messages that would differ significantly than what he brought hence here Jesus is already highlighting difference between him and the next comforter!

Hence we can quibble with words and it will get us no where allos means another of the same kind, Jesus has clarified this point!
since the above scripture purportedly spoke about Muhammed,can any muslim explain to me the part I highlighted in capital letters?Jesus said,' He shall glorify Me,for He shall receive of Mine'.Did Muhammed come to glorify Jesus and was his message a testimony and approval of the message of Jesus,because that is the meaning of that part of the Scripture.
Islam › Re: Muhammad cannot be the Comforter by thorpido(m): 6:22pm On Mar 31, 2013
It has always been a delusion to think that scripture refers to Muhammed.Jesus said He shall take of mine and shew it to you.Did Muhammed come to show Jesus?
They must twist it to give credibility to what they accept.

Who are penticostals?Or what is the meaning of Penticostals?
The people who celebrated Penticost in the Bible were not Christians.

Family › Re: Is It A Crime For 2nd Or 3rd Daughter To Get Married Before The 1st Daughter by thorpido(m): 8:22pm On Mar 28, 2013
There are some areas where they take it serious.
There is no crime or sin in a younger one getting married before the older.
Is it not better to wait and marry the one u will be happy with than to just rush and end up not happy later on.
Christianity Etc › Re: Questions For Frosbel On Tithing by thorpido(m): 6:16pm On Mar 28, 2013
Goshen360: ^ ^ When the Bible says we are the seed of Abraham, what does it mean?
'For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ......and if ye be Christ's,then are ye Abraham's seed,and heirs according to the promise(Gal 3:27,29).
The seed of Abraham according to the bible is the one who is joined by faith to Christ.
Christianity Etc › Re: Questions For Frosbel On Tithing by thorpido(m): 4:40pm On Mar 28, 2013
It is not a law for a Christian to tithe,but Christianity was born of the Word and of faith.
Abraham(and Jacob)tithed and the bible calls us the seed of Abraham.
If u are of faith,then tithe.
I tithe and even have begun giving first fruits.I have seen specific things happen in my life and I know it was because of the firstfruit i gave.

It is of faith,that it might be of grace.
Let it be according to your faith.
Christianity Etc › Re: Questions For Frosbel On Tithing by thorpido(m): 4:16pm On Mar 28, 2013
Segeggs: Abraham is the father of our faith but not the author and finisher of our faith which jesus clearly is. If we are to emulate abraham then we ought to be making sacrifices(animal),going to war and doing things that he did which are against christianity.
Follow the faith of Abraham and his works based on faith,not his acts.

kingingkinging: But it more disheartening when people that are supposed to be friends turned out to be enemies.

Tuface has never for once said any bad thing about this man called blackface including when he sued Tuface and claimed 50% of the income of African Queen rather good things like his uncle(blackface uncle) provided accommodation for them when they came from IMT Enugu to Lagos, that Blackface uncle spent money for them, etc but Blackface on the contrary has never said any thing good about Tuface. He would rather speak spitefully and slanderously about the guy in any interview he granted but trust Tubaba,silence is the best answer.

If I were Tuface too, I wouldn't invite enemy that is too envious to see anything good in me. Imagine your friend suing you because a song you composed together brings success for the other one. He also produced his own version of African Queen just to discredit Tubaba but whoever God has blessed, like Tuface said, no man including blacface can curse.
I wont invite him too if I were Tuface Idibia. He could go there and distabilize everything out of jealousy. Enemy like friend.
E be like say na true o.I don dey hear say Blackface na him dey cut Tuface for back.Well I no blame Tuface if e blank am.

logica: If that is the case, then why the rumored snub by Mikel Obi so painful?
Tuface and Blackface have known each other for years and have been friends.Tuface and Mikel are both rich guys who met and Tuface expected Mikel to acknowledge him which he didn't(according to tory wey we hear o).

clemmonce: na wao sometimes i wonder how people just sit and judge people. dont you knw they hav beef for each other
If they have beef for each other,then that's their reason for boning each other.Whatever it is,the fact remains that these guys have been together when there was nothing way back and this is not the time to keep such beef.

The issue of believing the same thing is always going to arise.There are going to be issues from family members as you have now.If he thinks love can pull them through,then they should see how it goes.
However as a Christian,the Bible is definite on who to get involved in a relationship with.

Geewan: Do you have a problem with comprehension?
I used the word WORSHIP. I need you to show me where he explicitly said "worship me" and not what you made up for him.
He is certainly the way to a far greater thing which unfortunately you people don't get.

Why are you people always quick to judge? Luke 6:41-42 is certainly null and void these days.
I'm not judging,but it seems the way to go is to scrutinize and look for what he purportedly didn't say rather than to even find and follow what He said.
Anyway let's not sweat it.To each his own.
