The other guy prospered, took what he wanted and gave the rest out. When it was profitable to be quiet, he became humble. When the tide turned, he turned. He wanted his son's wife, the required revelation came. He needed more than 4 wives, the required revelation came. Mercenary, cunning and grabbing whatever he could from other belief systems. Even himself wondered at the devil in him. He said A today, and then B the next day. He became a "Lord". Why did he do it? Wouldn't that just be the person to emulate? I "personally" do not demonize him but I have made my own conclusions. Dude played his role and will get his reward.

Compare the two. True it is that truth is relative but, there is a big picture.

Nobody does what Moses did. Everyone would like to be a Lord.

Herod's infanticide was prophesied. I do not have answers for why it was prophesied but once that came from God, it had to happen. I regret to have to state this again but assuming (for the sake of those whose belief systems run counter to mine) that the Biblical God IS "God", this is another matter of "Owner" rights. My posts history here will show I do not seek excuses for God or try to smooth Him over. I have asked harder questions than ANY of these myself and my life and times have been such that there have been times when even Atheists here would have wondered at me and shaken their heads at my "unbelief". But I have possessions too and at times do strange things with them.

How God is God cannot be shown like I can show 1 - 1 = 0. Faith is not tangible and thus how would you have me show why I believe Jehovah? But believe me, I remain convinced and have my conclusions. I wish those who are still searching whether they acknowledge/realise it or not, luck. But Israel was "CHOSEN" and I am certain you know the NT discusses another "Chosen" generation. Based on that, it is a given He owns ALL.

Freewill is understood differently by us all. Yep, chosen BUT have responsibility in the process.

It makes no sense that multiple Gods created existence. The presence of counterfeits only confirms there exists an original. The fact alone that Islam insists on using Judaism/Christianity as its crutch - "Adam was the first muslim", "Jesus was a revered prophet who will return", the fact that ALL the PROPHETS except Muhammed come from the Jews, "Muhammed is the comforter by fire by force", etc etc etc shows a lot. In effect, all three Monotheist religions point back to the same God. Funny it is that christians insist its not the same God whist muslims INSIST it MUST BE THE same (at least until very recently and mainly on NL). The personal lives of the dudes involved in the three religions shows even more.

Moses was never a king, never wealthy, never a liked or even respected leader. He was feared and became something more than man. Where was his profit? He left the Palace to become a desert warrior. He led an unruly indisciplined band of people who never gave him peace. If you are in it for power, do you destroy the wealth of nations you conquer? You burn their gold, silver, etc? Do you refuse to make yourself comfortable? He had only the one focus - get to a promised land. But he never walked on that land, never knew why it was promised, never enjoyed the process of trying to get there. He didn't get there for reasons which have always seemed very ", ][]7^$#@" (lost for words) to me. Yet I wonder as I type today if us typing/reading today weren't the "true" (weightier) reason he wasn't allowed. At least nobody can say it was an agenda he dreamed up for profit. If you look at the "Meat/Core of the Gospel" thread, you'll find the same thing running through it. Motive shows intent. Why did he do it? Would you? Yet he NEVER wavered even once or doubted his eventual destination. Interesting character- to have all that potential and not get anything out of it?

@Tudor:

Sincerely,

You'll see (if you ever bothered to look) that I accused DS of repeating the same questions in different words. THAT was why I opted to refuse to answer the same thing AGAIN. BTW, most any serious member of this section will tell you this is a claim I have made against him at least a half dozen times here and that there were times when even he seemingly didn't realise all bore down back to the same question. I remember telling him once that he "seemed to be trying to bore/irritate/annoy his perceived opponent to death" by asking the same thing over and over.

PS: whats with this "conscience", "gentle Jesus thingy", "idiotic smiling christian" idea all of you try to use coming from? If una no get wetin to talk, why not watch rather than try to make people feel guilty. Anyways, na wrong persin you dey try O. I no fear to cancel any nonsense in front of me. Jesu sef use koboko when him dey this side. Me go use dagger join.

Love you too

Concerning the OP, I actually prefer Pounded yam to Amala. But I doubt I love Poundo as much as Pastor AIO loves Amala though

mrmayor:
I had a good laff with the original Amala post, trust Deep Sight and Nuclearboy to make more ( ~), now with the Return of Tudor, I just had to subscribe.

@Nuclearboy,

Nice analogies you have there , I plan to breed catfish myself. The questions to you Sir.

1) Who Owns who? Who owns Nigerian, Brits, French etc? Can We ( You) opt out of being owned. Can you owner ( God) asked you kill people owned by another (God)?

2) How did you determine that Jehovah owned the Hitites, Edomites, Cannanites etc that he can order Israel to Kill?

3) If I (We) believe in Different Owners ( GODS) can these (Owners) still Order the Death of those they Own?

4) Is Genocide/ Slavery ever Justified; if yes, when is it? was Genocide justified in Biblical times, Medieval, 1939-1945,Biafra, Libaria, etc?

5) Assuming a Woman owns her own Body,  can she like the Catfish example  ( Remove, Kill, Abort) the ( Baby, Fetus)? Afterall she owns the Contents and the Container

Choi. Wonders shall never end!!

Now Rahab is a [i]descendant [/i]of Jesus?

You may need an English Primer, Tudor.

P.S. At least you have dropped the DNA issue. Your brain is catching up with the thread now.

InesQor:
English comprehension for the selectively blind

Keywords deliberately emphasized in italics 

Comprehension exercise: Rahab not only had [i]unpure [/i]DNA but was also a[i] descendant [/i]of Jesus. Discuss.

InesQor:
Lol welcome back Tudor! Not to worry, your "resident slowpoke" throne is vastly unoccupied. No one dared ascend it since Abuzola tried earlier in the year and failed.

Only you will see an intelligent point in the statement that harlots have impure DNAs, and all kinds of drivel that the baboon spouted.

nuclearboy:
This Tudor no go change till me Jesus beat that demon comot.  

Did you read my post at all? I said we do not believe (we know) allah is the "owner"and thus, we say he has no right over the fish! Which is JUST THE SAME as you saying God does not have that right (because you don't believe). Now, if you do it (say such) and you say we cannot, tell me, who is the hypocrite?

I'm not the one spouting double standards here!

Lord Tudor:



You think I was/am limited to repetition? Why not say what you felt I did not respond to exactly?
