obadiah777: SATAN WORKS IN CONJUNCTION WITH GOD. SATAN IS NOT THE ENEMY YOU THINK HE IS. HE IS THE ENEMY IF THE LORD ALLOWS HIM TO JACK YOU UP. HOWEVER HE NEEDS PERMISSION FROM THE LORD BEFORE HE CAN DO HIS DAMAGE. HE IS THE LORDS POLICE-MAN ON EARTH. AN EVIL ANGEL THAT DELIVERS JUSTICE ON BEHALF OF THE LORD. HE DOES NOT ACT ON HIS OWN. THATS AN OLD MYTH. IF YOU WANT VERSES TO WHAT I JUST TOLD YOU I WOULD BE HAPPY TO SUPPLY EM.It's not everybody Satan needs to take permission from God for. Study your bible harder my dear |

bolaino: It's a question that should be answered with utmost sincerity, with all honesty and with no religious bias (but I doubt my christian folks will be able to do that). With the above-bolded comment you made you've made it clear you are coming to this discussion with a biased mind. I doubt even the best explanation for the topic at hand would be able to convince you. To the second bolded comment, the answer to what you ask is not very complicated. I'll simply jog your memory to give you a hint of the answer. Were you among those that cringed at the evil perpetuated on the ALUU4 last year? Imagine you had been privy to the fact that one or all of the boys would be going to a beautiful place to inherit mansions, etc, would you still say the suffering they endured before they were killed was a 'walk in the park'? Just quietly think about that. |

plaetton: in Science the life of a Man comes from the spermatozua. Without the spermatozua, the baby is lifeless. So Jesus was born without spermatozua but by the Holyghost overshadowing a virgin and virginity in the old testament dipicts Holyness. The Life Jesus had was not a life from Man (but from the Holyghost) and he was born of a virgin (HOLY WOMAN). So, He was born Holy. Nobody was ever born that way not even John the baptist. Think about it! Any more questns? |

Are you an atheist(One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods) or a real christian? which i doubt if are one.With this your submission and conclusion it shows clearly that you are a goddamn anti Christ, a pagan that never see anything good in what Our Lord Jesus Christ did. You urgently need a deliverance if not hell fire is sure for you. |

manny4life: God is not a human that you question his words or authority. Yet you disrespect the Devil, question his words (not like he has said anything sef before), authority and power at will and with impiutnity.. And lest I forget, THE DEVIL IS ALSO NOT HUMAN!! If you say God did not know that Lucifer would sin, then you have just said the God isnt really Omniscient. Giving someone a choice, automatically negates the omniscience of God. Its not a maatter of justifying, its just common sense.. |

Sweetlemon:YOU ARE THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO STUDY YOUR BIBLE. COLOSIANS 1 VS 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: DEUT 32 VS 39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand AMOS 3 VS 6 shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it ?

Okija_juju: Reread my post again, How do u mean "disrespect the devil"? Wetin cosign me an devil wey I go take respect am? Bible said he's the accuser of brethren. I think you got it twisted, no one questions the devil, the only person who has authority to question devil is GOD, even Jesus rebuked him... Bros, I said maybe or maybe not, God's intentions where not known in the Bible but I did think God knew, it doesn't mean God created evil. God Gave him power and will power but greed and jealousy set in. You're questioning God abi? No giving someone a CHOICE means they have to WORK for it to enter into the Kingdom of God. If God where to make all things perfect, we'll be like remote controlled robots na I don't know what common or sense to you, but this is our truth. |

damosky12:your biology teacher should be jailed if he/she actually taught you that a baby is lifeless without spermatozoa.my dear,without spermatozoa there can be no fertilisation so there will be no zygote and hence no baby at all.so you need to find another argument to support your point. 1 Like |

But it says that Satan went to meet God to plead that he be allowed to test Job.. NOW HOW IN FUCKKKKSSSS NAME DID THAT HAPPEN?! Or is Satan not a lean, mean, sinning machine? Man, the Bible can be contradictory and ambiguous o! That's just one instance of many of Satan being in God's presence. 2 Likes |

The atonement of christ is beyond human comprehension. You need prayer, faith and humility to be able to understand it a little bit. You can get some background information here: http://mormon.org/faq/atonement-of-christ |

a man was arrested and sentenced to death, later the authorities wanted to grant him clemency, but the people refused and he was killed. 2000yrs+ later, descendants of homo-africanus are claiming he died for them. very funny!!! |

Delafruita:have you ever read the bible?? If you have you will see where Jesus repeatedly stated clearly that he came for the whole world and not just the Isrealites. He stated it clearly "WHOSOEVER that believes" please get yourself a good news or NIV version of the bible and read the books of matthew to acts of the Apostles. And please read it with an open heart. As for proof of whether he existed, when you allow him into your heart, you will get all the proof you need! It's really not something that can be explained unless it is experienced first hand. |

Of course people on earth also go through great undeserving suffering and punishment on earth. But this is about our spiritual punishment and death. Everyone sins (even Christians) and the punishment for sin eternal hell. The only redemption for our sins is a pure sacrifice. (Previously, a lamb was a common sacrifice for sins due to its purity and innocence.) Jesus was the only human who was sinless, and could, therefore, make a sinless sacrifice for all of us who are sinful. Additionally, because He was sinless He would never be punished or need to make a sacrifice. Yet He went through all of that torture in our place because of His love for us and God's grace. Hope that helps. for those saying how is it a big deal,the greatest sacrifice one can give is their life. POW'S and victims of psychopaths did not give themselves over to torture, they did not sacrifice themselves. not to say that they're pain meant nothing because it wasn't their choice. 1 Like |

I never believed the day would come in my lifetime when a Nigerian would become reprobate and deny the existence of God (even though they hide behind anonymous platforms like Nairaland). Although the poster and his band of blasphemers in the early posts are obviously wallowing in the cesspool of d devil's grand deceptions (which is a fulfilment of a Bible prophesy: "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." I will attempt some answers. 1. God created man (Adam) in His own image, not knowing good or evil; but that he lost that nature when they ate the forbidden fruit. Remember it was after that they realise they were naked (which is d knowledge of good and evil). Only children are comfortable walking around naked becos until they reach the sinful nature of knowing good and evil (at around 10). If they die at that innocent stage then they go to heaven even without repenting. Remember Christ said the kingdom of heaven is filled with people with the innocent spirit of children? 2. Who will reconcile man to God. Initially (d old testament), d blood of animals were used (muslims still practice this); but it cannot really cleanse ur nature. It was only a divine being, who had to be become part-human (but not corrupted with by conception thru d natural order of male-female copulation). Anyone else who died or suffered is human. Only d sacrifice of Jesus Christ was acceptable because He doesn't have our nature and is Holy before God. 3. That's why we confess our sins and ask God to forgive us THROUGH JESUS CHRIST ONLY. We also pray thru jesus Christ. Anyone else including Mary is human and doing it through them is idolatory (Catholism is one of the greatest deceptions of history). When u do it sincerely (no one can fool God), God accepts and gives u His new spirit and nature (I felt it a long time ago. It's d most beautiful thing ever!). U feel new, find it easy practice good and shun evil. U can't force it cos it's supernatural. Unfortunately, so many churchgoers equate it to just attending church or being a worker! 4. Lastly, my dear ones, KNOW THIS "If in this life only YOU HAVE HOPE (rich, beautiful, successful etc), then YOU are of all men MOST MISERABLE. 5. My last line becos I did this as a youth: "Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil." 2 Likes |

Lol, you guys never quit, as much as dying on the cross was significant, there where two other significant events that happened - physically and spiritually. Please read the Bible. Only God knew about his journey, and that's why when Jesus Cried out, father why have u forsaken me, God knew the plan. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he sent his only son, that whosoever BELIEVES in him, WILL NOT PERISH, but have everlasting life. |

damosky12: the sacrifice was a spiritual one and can be difficult for the natural mind to understand so I do not blame the @op.Know that Jesus Christ was sinnless and a blood is neccessary to take away sins based on the spiritual laws establish by God.No other blood can wash away sins( a spiritual disease) than the preciuos and stainless blood of Jesus Crist.He had to die to make that blood available for all sinners , he did no die for himself or to himself , he died to shed his blood for the remission of sins. |

yuzedo:ITS WRITTEN AS A STORY SO YOU CAN GET AN IDEA OF WHATS GOING ON BUT IN ACTUALITY WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT SATAN IS ROAMING UP AND DOWN TO AND FRO THE EARTH DESTROYING AND KILLING PEOPLE WHILE GOD PUTS HIS PROTECTION OVER THOSE WHO HE DOES NOT WANT DESTROYED.SO SATAN IS CLEARING HOUSE FOR THE LORD, DESTROYING ALL THE UNDESIRABLES WHILE GOD IS PROTECTING THE ONES HE WANTS PROTECTED. BUT TO MAKE IT SOUND ENGAGING IT IS WRITTEN AS A CONVERSATION BETWEEN GOD AND SATAN. SO IN ESSENCE SATANS WORK IS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE LORDS WORK. HE IS THE LORDS DESTROYER. HE DESTROYS THE UNDESIRABLES FOR THE LORD PROVERBS 16 VS 4 The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil AMOS 3 VS 6 shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it? << THE LORD THE ONE USING SATAN TO DO EVIL BUT THE IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE HERE IS THAT HE DOES EVIL RIGHTEOUSLY. THERE IS SUCH A THING AS RIGHTEOUS EVIL. THIS IS RIGHTEOUS EVIL >>> GALATIANS 6 VS 7 MEANING YOU ARE GETTING EVIL DONE TO YOU FOR THE EVIL YOU DID. SOME CALL IT THE LAW OF KARMA. COLOSIANS 3 VS 25 |

obadiah777: WAS A BIG DEAL IN WHAT IT ACCOMPLISHED. IT RE-UNITED A FALLEN WORLD BACK TO GOD And what exactly was the purpose For whose benefit? And since then......? Is there any evidence that Jesus left a better world than the one he met?
