jdilight: And what about Thomas? |

jdilight: It depends on the kind of skeptic your talking, but will suit agnotics anyway. An atheist is stable and my bible said he will not receive anything good of God.It also depends. To prove that atheists are stable: they don't expect anything from your God. Let me reveal you a secret. I began to hear God when I began to obey him totally. Hallucination!!! |

pesty100: would we be more enlightened when we dieMysteries "hidden" under the Sun will start revealing itself to a Man when he breathes his last.... |

Macelliot:its the same as saying we would be enlightened when we die, if so then why should a more enlightened entity be punished for what it did when it was less enlightened |

pesty100: paul was a sinner and wasn't seeking God, and also if being a skeptic is a sin then am a sinner... Then automatically am seeking God now as a sinner... I wonder why he hasn't yet found me... Have Got so many philosophical questions to ask him Go an study the account of Saul, you will understand what he did and why he did it. You are only looking at what he did. |

pesty100: the same explanation is applicable to me... If you had read about descrates or epicurus then u would understand better As I said earlier, every information we have has a source. And the sources of all information we have is spiritual. As man is inspired so he writes. The source of every information is very important to what it will turn the receiver into. |

pesty100: the source of all information we have is spiritual Hahaha, your not aware? Nothing that happen on earth that have not happened in the spirit. |

jdilight: You said something earlier (in the first page) that a person must be close to God before he can hear from Him. For the purpose of opposing your statement I gave an example, Paul, who God encountered with the fact that he wasn't close to God. You defened yourself by saying that he thought he was pleasing God.. Maybe that's why God revealed himself to him. So I mentioned another person, Thomas, an unbeliever (who can't be close to God) yet God revealed Himself to him. -Thomas was one of Jesus's disciples. jdilight: God said you will find Him when you seek (not look for Him, but seek) Him with all your heart. Remember that too? |

Pr0ton: If you see my opinion as defending myself, I will stop. Am not in any fight with anyone. Everyone got his life to live. Don't like fighting. |

This is one thing I hate about our local pastors. They exaggerate things too much. How could a rational person say this? jdilight: You mean everything that happens here on earth had already happened in the spirit? Ebola disease had happened in the spirit. BokoHaram crisis had happened in the spirit. Rain had fallen in the spirit before it fell on earth You'd taken your bath in the spirit before you took the one in the morning. I'd joined Nairaland in the spirit before I joined here on earth. My laptop had spoilt in the spirit before it spoilt here. Everything happening here had already happened in the spirit. I hope I've gotten my admission in the spirit |

jdilight: Defending yourself doesn't mean your fighting. It's just to let people know that your right. And if you can't defend it... Your probably deceiving us |

Pr0ton: This is one thing I hate about our local pastors. They exaggerate things too much. How could a rational person say this? If your not aware, as a skeptic try joining a spiritual cult. |
