HardMirror: You alone have mentioned me over 20 times. Masquerades are real but they are not your ancestors or spirits. They are ordinary human beings in costume. Speaking in tongues is real but it is not any holy spirit gift. Healing is real but it is same with adrenaline boost or placebo effect. Witches are real, because there are many who think they are witches, deeper investigations wld reveal they are mostly victims of psychological disorders probably and the so called process of deliverance is a form of hypnosis. I don't want to talk much on how this can be done, but do a little research and you may learn more on hypnosis. really really... sure i would mention you becos you are a good testimony to the reality of the supernatural... and its TRUE EOD! secondly becos one can mimic the supernatural using mind manipulative measure does not give away that their is no REAL supernatural.... moses and pharoah magician comes to mind.... finally if the mind that grey matter when manipulated (which you claim is what you used), pray tell me, why not manipulate your brain so that you can use it now (like you did as WORD OF KNOWLEDGE) to help our troops know when where boko haram will strike next since we christians are so poor in using the word of knowledge to help the govt fight crime and terrorism etc |

chrmn1: You see its written in a certain book that: The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men (Psalms 115:16)
A lot of people think God runs the world. God?? Hell No. Who does? Satan? Nope. Satan influences humanity with his vices,etc but it was man that was given authority over the earth. Man runs the world. But I'll tell you what man does, man wants to eat his proverbial cake an still have it. Adam decided to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil and what that implied was man made a statement that he was ready to live independent of God and bear the attendant responsibilities. Everything God has been doing from that time up till now has been purely redemptive. It did not end with Adam. Man today has decided to eat of the same tree as Adam. Not a bad thing really as life is all about choices. But guess who is to blame for the woes in the world? Man? No. God. Why? Because He's got all the power to make it all right. Yes He does but He asked you, can you allow me run the world but we refused. Yes we chose to do it ourselves and now we have the world in a mess.
If God runs the events in the world today, He wouldnt ask us to pray 'Father let Your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven'.
God's will is being done in heaven but it's not so here on earth. I know people have been taught that God runs the world and is responsible for everything that happens in the world but there's nothing farther from the truth than this notion.
So you see how man (humanity) would like to eat his cake by choosing to live independent of God and His ways and still wants to have his cake by not being responsible for the ills in the world.
I still insist that there's something OP didn't tell us. If I were to hazard a guess, I would say he wanted to do certain stuff and still not feel guilty of his acts and so had to douse every voice of guilt by immersing himself into books and materials that emboldened his belief that there is no God. To claim that it was due to his inability to give sight to a needy old man and unanswered question is akin to given me some tales by moonlight stories and expect us to digest it just like that which would never happen.
You see power in the spirit is like weightlifting. There are some things you can do and there are higher things you build yourself to be able to deal with in the spirit. The power that God would demonstrate of your behalf is the one you have built/the one that works in you. It's a partnership between man and the divine. No shortcuts. God is able to do exceeding, abundantly above what we ask or think according to the power that works in you.
I am moved to write and write I will amen |

LebanonCedars2: I am totally not surprised at rate at which some people are coming out to tell the world that they don't believe in the existence of God. Like someone pointed out here, satan who was with God turned back against Him with almost half of the angel. Demas was with Paul and saw God performed great wonders still the world had an attraction to him and he went back.
Besides, its in the scriptures: "Now the Spirit speaks expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of the devils. speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron" 1 Tim 4:1,2. What more do we need?!
My dear brother Hardmirror, a time will come in one's life when one will need to decide on which side of the divide he needs to be: light or darkness, death or life. Its a matter of choice. You have chosen yours and I have chosen mine. The end will justify the means. As for me (though foolish and unreasonable it may sound to you), I have pitched my tent with the One you said does not exist - God Almighty! He saved me, deliver me from terrible lifestyles and addictions that would have ruined my life. He didn't stop there, He gave me peace and joy that words cannot describe and spread His love in my heart. What more do I need?! If a dead and powerless (to you) God can do that, then I am willing to commit my all to Him.
For I know my Redeemer liveth!!! HARDMIRROR note the bolded and take it as foodforthought  |

my dear athiest HARDMIRROR that believes the supernatural as real... as a pastor did you read this ever before 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: note
8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
you tasted the powers of the world to come - miracles, speaking in tongues, word of knowledge and the supernatural christianity which were REAL and you confirmed it. on the reason you started drifting when the blindman couldnot see after your prayers...have you not read where paul left a brother sick even though he wrote miracles etc 2tim 4:20 Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick. but he was ready to die for the One who did miracles through him before even though he left someone sick.  |

Seun: From the epistles it's clear that the tongues the early Christians spoke were meaningless sounds which nobody could understand, hence the need for "interpretation". I believe the pentecost story was pure fiction; it was written to validate the weird practice of speaking in tongues. HARDmirror is a proof that speaking in tongues is more than just meaningless chatter.... |

In the absence of God the devil takes over. There is no vacuum allowed.

damogul: Are you smiling? I have known him to be a con job but have just been observing from the sidelines because God has a way of enabling people to expose themselves with their own hands.
He claimed to be a Super pastor and extremely popular in his alleged Pastoral days and planted lots of churches and got over 300 converts etc But wait...300 people can only fit into a small hall so how did he arrive at ranking himself so highly?
Meanwhile since he was so popular and even mentioned the school he graduated from how come he could not mention his name. There are people here who also graduated from the same school same time as he did who would have known him but he cannot mention his name especially since his whole story is a lie.
He even mentioned a certain believer who died of complications from fasting and a nairalander who also graduated in 2010 from the same school called him out asking for the name of the person who died since he was also from there but he never answered that question.
The guy is a fraud and a good story writer and if you check his threads here on NL you will see the stories e has concocted which he initially passed around as truth but later opened up that it was all lies. However if he had not said they were lies you would have believed them as truth.
Right here i see someone who saw his lie get out of control so allowed it to fester and pretend it was the truth and if he now says its a lie he would lose face. The guy is a bold faced liar.
Thank God the thread was pushed to the FP a second time at least everyone can also see the lies as they have been seeing already. what baffles me is how an athiest can CONFIRM that miracles ARE NOT real but real christian supernatural IS NOT real BUT real this has given me a fresh perception that we can have athiest that will believe in unscientifically unverified unempirical evidence such as the supernatural.  |

kolinz: FAITH IS WHAT ATHEIST LACK.
READ THIS,
Just a fun cool little story I thought you all might enjoy and be encouraged by Einsteins use of logic to proof that God can exist, be Perfectly Loving, and there be evil in the world....  An atheist professor of philosophy pauses before his class and then asks one of his new students to stand. 'You're a Christian, aren't you, son?' 'Yes sir,' the student says. 'So you believe in God?' 'Absolutely. ' 'Is God good?' 'Sure! God's good.' 'Is God all-powerful? Can God do anything?' 'Yes' 'Are you good or evil?' 'The Bible says I'm evil.' The professor grins knowingly. 'Aha! The Bible! He considers for a moment. 'Here's one for you. Let's say there's a sick person over here and you can cure him. You can do it. Would you help him? Would you try?' 'Yes sir, I would.' 'So you're good...!' 'I wouldn't say that.' 'But why not say that? You'd help a sick and maimed person if you could. Most of us would if we could. But God doesn't.' The student does not answer, so the professor continues. 'He doesn't, does he? My brother was a Christian who died of cancer, even though he prayed to Jesus to heal him. How is this Jesus good? Can you answer that one?' The student remains silent. 'No, you can't, can you?' the professor says. He takes a sip of water from a glass on his desk to give the student time to relax 'Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?' 'Er..yes,' the student says. 'Is Satan good?' The student doesn't hesitate on this one. 'No.' 'Then where does Satan come from?' The student falters. 'From God' 'That's right. God made Satan, didn't he? Tell me, son. Is there evil in this world?' 'Yes, sir..' 'Evil's everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything, correct?' 'Yes' 'So who created evil?' The professor continued, 'If God created everything, then God created evil, since evil exists, and according to the principle that our works define who we are, then God is evil.' Again, the student has no answer. 'Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things, do they exist in this world?' The student squirms on his feet. 'Yes.' 'So who created them?' The student does not answer again, so the professor repeats his question. 'Who created them?' There is still no answer. Suddenly the lecturer breaks away to pace in front of the classroom. The class is mesmerized. 'Tell me,' he continues onto another student. 'Do you believe in Jesus Christ, son?' The student's voice betrays him and cracks. 'Yes, professor, I do.' The old man stops pacing. 'Science says you have five senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Have you ever seen Jesus?' 'No sir. I've never seen Him.' 'Then tell us if you've ever heard your Jesus?' 'No, sir, I have not..' 'Have you ever felt your Jesus, tasted your Jesus or smelt your Jesus? Have you ever had any sensory perception of Jesus Christ, or God for that matter?' 'No, sir, I'm afraid I haven't.' 'Yet you still believe in him?' 'Yes' 'According to the rules of empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your God doesn't exist... What do you say to that, son?' 'Nothing,' the student replies.. 'I only have my faith.' 'Yes, faith,' the professor repeats. 'And that is the problem science has with God. There is no evidence...only faith.' The student stands quietly for a moment, before asking a question of His own. 'Professor, is there such thing as heat? ' 'Yes. 'And is there such a thing as cold?' 'Yes, son, there's cold too.' 'No sir, there isn't.' The professor turns to face the student, obviously interested. The room suddenly becomes very quiet. The student begins to explain. 'You can have lots of heat, even more heat, super-heat, mega-heat, unlimited heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat, but we don't have anything called 'cold'. We can hit d own to 458 degrees below zero, which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold; otherwise we would be able to go colder than the lowest -458 degrees. Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-458 F) is the total absence of heat. You see, sir, 'cold' is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat we can measure in thermal units because heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.' Silence across the room. A pen drops somewhere in the classroom, sounding like a hammer. 'What about darkness, professor. Is there such a thing as darkness?' 'Yes,' the professor replies without hesitation.. 'What is night if it isn't darkness?' 'You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is not something; it is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light, but if you have no light constantly you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? That's the meaning we use to define the word. In reality, darkness isn't. If it were, you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?' The professor begins to smile at the student in front of him. This will be a good semester. 'So what point are you making, young man?' 'Yes, professor. My point is, your philosophical premise is flawed to start with, and so your conclusion must also be flawed.' The professor's face cannot hide his surprise this time. 'Flawed? Can you explain how?' 'You are working on the premise of duality,' the student explains.. 'You argue that there is life and then there's death; a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but it has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it.' 'Now tell me, professor.. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?' 'If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, young man, yes, of course I do.' 'Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?' The professor begins to shake his head, still smiling, as he realizes where the argument is going. A very good semester, indeed. 'Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you now not a scientist, but a preacher?' The class is in uproar. The student remains silent until the commotion has subsided. 'To continue the point you were making earlier to the other student, let me give you an example of what I mean.' The student looks around the room. 'Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the professor's brain?' The class breaks out into laughter. 'Is there anyone here who has ever heard the professor's brain, felt the professor's brain, touched or smelt the professor's brain? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, with all due respect, sir.' 'So if science says you have no brain, how can we trust your lectures, sir?' Now the room is silent. The professor just stares at the student, his face unreadable. Finally, after what seems an eternity, the old man answers. 'I guess you'll have to take them on faith.' 'Now, you accept that there is faith, and, in fact, faith exists with life,' the student continues. 'Now, sir, is there such a thing as evil?' Now uncertain, the professor responds, 'Of course, there is. We see it every day. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil.' To this the student replied, 'Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light.' The professor sat down. PS: the student was Albert Einstein Albert Einstein wrote a book titled God vs. Science in 1921...

Ruq: True, you still prove atheists right with this explanation, which is why it is said there's no child or baby that is a Christian or Muslim because parents have already made a decision for the babies who cannot decide for themselves which information they want to open their mind to, hence tagged brainwashing. Which is why everyone tags Boko haram victims of brainwashing, oblivious to the fact that what we hold to is also brain washing. boko haram are product of information WITHOUT CONTROL which leads to brainwashing...a child not having a direction by the parent will be OUT OF CONTROL which is what you are advocating and that is no good. |

johnydon22: The truth should be naked, plain and simple. it does not fear conflicting ideas or is vulnerable to contradicting ideas.
It is open to scrutiny and questions, that is how it grows.
Anything afraid of scrutiny and questions, any thing that discourages doubt and scepticism to uphold blind faith is not far from being a fat lie.
But notice how the bible/quran are always to be protected from questions, scrutiny and people discouraged from doubt in their quest for enlightenment...
that is the trademark of a large destroying lie
Absurdities should be scrutinized and questioned not swallowed ... hardmirror has shown that miracles are real...speaking in tongues are real..... the christian supernatural is real.... this are all christian truths that he has verified but felt that just becos a similar can be replicated by magicians, therefore it is false...moses and the magician on stick turning to snakes.... comes to.mind. |

johnydon22: Just take a look... i knew this was what to come
Children are dying of hunger everyday, famine are killing in it's thousands everyday and all other dire problems facing millions on earth.
But oh the children that die don't matter neither is the ones dying of famine relevant, the Christians are busy thinking the alleged creator of the universe is turning their situation around, making circus shows and miracles cus maybe you are more deserving than them?
you deserve for the creator of the cosmos to solve your little problems but not the serious fatal ones happening in their millions.
if there is anything responsible for solving problems but choose to dabble into childish cases as the ones you listed above and not serious world troubles like Children dying of cancer, then that is a sheer mark of imbecility and misplaced priority.
Someone who worships a stone would credit his positive situations to the stone too, this is just some shabby belief..
Ridiculous...!!! EOD - end of days..JESUS stated this before He will come... but you have them childern to feed have you done so .. christian missionaries are reaching out to them still |

HardMirror: How true were the so called Revelations, speaking in tongues, deliverances, healings?
They were true
REVELATIONS, WORD OF KNOWLEDGE and PROPHESIES (MY DISCOVERIES) I was watching TV one day and I saw John Edwards show on air. This man could communicate with the dead. It was really amazing! And he was not doing it for the glory of God. He was a celebrity. He claims it is a gift. This man could accurately reveal hidden things about people. I said to myself this man is just using demonic powers to fool people (NOTE: this is how we christians always jump into conclusion, everything most have a spiritual explanation)
Some months later I saw a CIA documentary on Discovery Channel on how the CIA were paying Doctors and researchers on how to brain wash, hypnotise and control peoples minds. The documentary was really shocking!
So it was possible scientifically to control peoples mind? Wow!!!
I started doing more reseach into hypnotism. I had always thought it was only possible spiritually using demons and demonic techniques and that all hypnotists where agents of the devil. But I began to realize using drugs such as LSD could help in mind control through pure scientific means.
What impact did this have on me? I began to wonder if all I thought was spiritual were just me doing things that were scientific unconsciously.
COLD READING This was what John Edwards was using and word of knowledge operates the same way. If you prepare and develop your mind, you can read peoples history. (Watch the MENTALIST for more information). But in the case of a sincere christian, you are doing it unconsciously. You pick up cues and build on those cues. I don't want to talk too much on this as some will think I used the technique knowningly on people. But what I would tell you is I was only Cold-reading people, but I was doing it with the innocence of my heart. God does not speak, it is our minds that speaks to us, we develop a double personality the more we believe in God speaking to us. It can get to the extent of believing you even hear Him audibly.
SPEAKING TONGUES is not difficult as people think. The problem is fear of saying gibbrish you don't understand. It all depends on how much faith and belief you can put into believing in the act. Believe and release yourself and you will speak in tongues. It's the easiest thing. Even easier than speaking a language you understand, because you don't have to think of what you are saying. Our brains are capable of more things we could ever imagine. impressive ... magicians could turn their staff to snake likes moses did his... but in the end.. it swallowed other snakes...just because magicians can imitate the things supernatural.. dat does not mean that the real from God almighty does not happen....real magician hardmirror |

HardMirror: This was an incidence that really rattled me. The big question now is, " does God answer prayers?" After all, I have seen God in action many times, I have seen him heal people so many times, I have been healed many times with out taking a single pill. so you just use magic .. real magic to heal those people.. but on the blind man... your real magic failed... hmmm .. real magician at work.... could OP be playing some magic tricks on nairaland.... watching |
