true?:



Who are you to command who is to stay, and who is to leave? You are the one who should have fear of falling into the hands of the living God. This test you offer the members of this forum is not from God. You do Satan’s tempting.

lol..dude u are cracking my ribs, u can bury urself here for all I care. It seems u always have some unintended humour in ur posts.

But to answer ur scaredy cat post,
is this true? of course it is. I am the devil in ur mind. But in the real sense of it, I am the one u fear might be right. I am the one who makes u fear that all u have come to know ur whole life might just be imaginations and fables.

I know u are probably going to be agressive in ur reply, but know that I really do mean no harm. I just want the world to be a better place. And religion isn't taking us there.

LOL..Okay.
You are correct religion is not helping man in any way, ( and can not ) because religions are not from God...they are a tool of satan. You can not make me fear anything. What I know of God, he proves.
Religions are designed to draw man away from God. Religions lie. Religions hide the truth. God says all religions will be destroyed by the nations. As far as my pretending for any time there is no God, I will not step there.

Within the next week I will post truths about the living God...I hope you take the time to read it.
And yes, I do believe you are a good person. I also believe it is religion that is drawing you away from God.

Intelligent design advocate William Dembski touts the accomplishments of Sanford as evidence of the scientific status of intelligent design, since Sanford is a specialist in genetic engineering and an Associate Professor in Horticulture. However, Sanford's position is rejected by most geneticists and biologists.[12]

Just because most biologists reject it doesn't make it any less true.

One Christ loving biologist agrees with creationism and that makes it right?


There have to be nutjobs among scientists too, dont you think?

If religion is bad, then why are u practising one?
And if u say christianity is not a religion, then why are u going to post stuff about ur God in the religion section?
If u really believe christianity is a way of life, not religion, then why don't u guys actually go further and start posting stuff in the culture, which means way of life section?
Its not just about saying stuff, its also about doing what u say.

I have stated; "Religions are not from God. They are a tool of Satan to draw people away from God" I believe in God, His son Jesus, and Gods written word, and yes, I do follow Gods laws. Christians in the bible gathered, but they had no religion...they followed Gods Laws.

Exactly! Christianity is not a religion but a way of life, right?
Then why don't u post in the culture section?
Becos u are only contradicting urself saying christianity is not a religion yet u post stuff about it in the religion section.
That is my simple question which requires a simple answer.

Nna mehn..I didn't know I could shake the foundations of so many christians just by telling them to be like me for a moment.
And yet they want me to be like them for my whole life.
What senseless and myopic line of reasoning.

The Prayer of an Atheist

Here is a true story about a young man who got his prayers answered:

Many people who visit Jerusalem are tourists who come to get a sense of Jewish culture and history. One day, a young tourist named Jeff was brought in to meet me at Aish HaTorah.

"What are you doing?" I asked him.

"I'm working for my MBA at Harvard University. And I'm an atheist."

"Fantastic! A real atheist! Whoever was able to convince an atheist like you to speak to a rabbi like me deserves a medal."

"Nah," Jeff says, "he doesn't deserve anything. I'll tell you how I came..."

Jeff had been in Norway, visiting his Norwegian fiance. And he decided it was now or never: either he is going to come to Israel or he'll never make it.

So he headed for Jerusalem and the Western Wall. He figured he would stop by the Wall to see some old stones. Yet upon his arrival he was amazed. He felt something heavy. He was moved.

Jeff stood before the Wall, and made up an atheist's prayer. He looked at the stones and said:

"God, I don't believe in You. As far as I know, You don't exist. But I do feel something. So if I'm making a mistake, I want You to know, God, I have no quarrel against You. It's just that I don't know that You exist. But God, just in case You're really there and I'm making a mistake, get me an introduction."

Jeff finished his prayer, and one of the Aish HaTorah students who happened to be at the Wall, saw Jeff and thought, "Perhaps he'd be interested in learning some Torah."

He tapped Jeff on the shoulder, startling him so much that he jumped three feet in the air. Jeff whirled around and shouted,

"What in the blankety-blank-dash-bang do you want?!"

"I'm sorry. I just want to know if you'd like to learn about God."

That question hit Jeff like a two-by-four right between the eyes. He had just finished asking God for an introduction, and immediately someone was offering to introduce him to God.

Jeff learned at Aish HaTorah for the next six weeks. He was a very serious student, and went back to the States with a commitment to continue learning. A year later, Jeff came back to Israel and told me the end of his story.

During that previous summer he had been meandering through the cobblestone alleyways of the Old City when he saw a pretty, sweet, religious girl walk by. He said to himself, "Look at the charm of this Jewish woman. May the Almighty help me meet someone like this."

One Shabbos morning during the next year, Jeff entered a synagogue in Boston for prayer services. Standing there was the same young woman he had seen in the Old City. He made his way over to her and said:

"Excuse me, but I believe I saw you last summer in Jerusalem."

She answered, "You're right. I saw you, too."

They are now married and living in New Jersey.

Remember Jeff's prayer. If you know any atheists, you can teach it to them. Because when you are sincere with God, your prayers are answered.

The Almighty is near to all those who call unto Him in truth. (Psalms 145:18)

@fame, u know u could just have created ur own thread.

Uyi Iredia:

I won't ask you to be A Christian before you condemn Christianity same way you shouldn't ask me to be an atheist before I can condemn atheism. What is sufficient is a good knowledge of what one is condemning and I must say that atheists on NL do a poor job of condemning the Bible. I think I know what its like to be an atheist. I have read many atheists comments in their sites all over the Web and am quite satisfied being a Christian. That said you should believe in God because Zature itself is evidence for GOd's existence. Something cannot come from nothing without a Creator.

Just passing through.. Wey Uyi dey sef?
