List of your fruit of carnality
1). Pride
italo:

I have shown
2). Foul words
italo:

you're ignorant and foolish.
your stupidd claims up.
3). Lack of understanding the Bible

But again I say "Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God." (1John3:9).
If you don't understand that verse let go of your pride and ask humbly.

You didn't see contradictions in the Bible, but you saw verse that you didn't understand. And because of your pride you didn't look for answers, thinking that you know it all and there is nothing left to know.

I am a sinner, but I believe I am righteous. Reason y we av d grace of reconciliation. one tin is being righteous, anoda tin is being holy. I think I mayb righteous but not holy. many pple trespassed in the bible. take david fore instance. pple considered to b men of God. what about peter? he not Only denied Jesus he lied. that we all consider a sin and at that tym he Was a deciple of Jesus. a staunch deciple at that. he Was in effect a child of God. Hiswordxray I acknowledge your statement. but again, even the bible, I think in the book of Same john you quoted said if anyone say he has no sin, he is a liar. if the christian life is a call to 100% sinlessness dnt u think there wudnt be any need for reconciliation?

Your pride and lack of understanding the Bible cause you to run off and become an atheist. Why reason why I argued with you is to reveal your problem.
I love you and God love you more, so I will give you this advice.
Go back to God, humble yourself, let him teach you as you trust in him.
May God help you in Jesus name "Amen! ".

My beloved brother.
All I was trying to do is to show you how carnal you are.
Your carnality is the reason why you misunderstood the Bible but yet pop up with pride, feeling like you know it all.

Advice: Go to God ask him to reveal himself to you. For the Bible says "[That you may really come] to know [practically, [e]through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses [f]mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] [g]unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and [h]become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!" (Eph 3:19).
Mere knowledge is useless you need to know and experience the love of God. For God is love.

if you call a person a fool you are guilty of what? hmm, Well, sometimes, you just cannot help it. but I dnt think Its a sin to call a fool a fool. christ actually called herod a fox, dat Was what he Was actually. but, I dnt like it. given the fact that the Both of you are claiming to b xtians. if d one doesn't want to accept his error if atall. then bolt. you'av tried. rada than resort to insult.

Italo pls stop behaving like a tout. If u have personal issues with anyone in your family don't take it out on innocent anonymous people on Nairaland.

Okay we have heard, christian can sin, let every Christian go out there and fight anyone, molest girls insult people anyhow... After all the bible justifies it.

After all the bible asked us to call people fools. No wonder it is the best language of every Christian.

And when Koran says kill and Muslims kill you guys start complaining.

No, sounds like you're trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. You do realize that I've got at least a thousand of these contradictions right?

Are you prepared to produce more arguments like "I'm my uncle's son?" Hahaha.
Re: The More I Grow The More I Get Confused With Religion by Weah96: 4:16pm On Nov 12, 2014
Another contradiction:

Did God create man before beasts or beast before man?


GEN 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

GEN 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

GEN 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
GEN 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

Your brain is resetting lol Welcome to the free world,hopefully you will make it.

Jesus dying for anyone is pure bullshitt! It was only a tool of control,to control peoples minds. Some have escaped the mind control system,while some are deeply rooted in it.

This is probably the beginning of you questioning everything and believing nothing without concrete evidence.

Goodluck
Christianity is not about hocus pocus.

Another contradiction:

How did Judas the traitor die? What happened to the payment he received?


ACT 1:18: "Now this man (Judas) purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out."

MAT 27:5-7: "And he (Judas) cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself. And the chief priests...bought with them the potter's field."

I never claimed to be a Christian, I was brought up as a Christian. is there anything wrong of me if I begin to question somethings that i was taught at my childhood?

No.

I would say that there was "something wrong" if you didn't begin to question -- usually fear.

I would turn the title round to say, "the more I question, the more I see the confusion, and the more I grow."

I am a human and can't be perfect, I do fall in love with my opposite sex and there is 90% probability of engaging in sexual activities with her.
what I don't really understand is the doctrine of me still going to end up everlasting in a lake of fire even after Jesus died for my sins.
am just thinking of those soldiers who recently lost their lives in the fight against boko haram. they fought for our lives and safety and yet people still go to media to criticize them, calling them all sort of names.
can someone help me to explain how Jesus death has benefited africans and Nigerians?
i still get confused with religion

a cure for diabetes, ending the misery of daily insulin injections for millions of sufferers.

They have not only managed to halt the disease in mice but also reversed it.

Human trials will start shortly and, if they are successful, relief could be in sight for 350,000 sufferers in Britain and 194million worldwide.

It could also lift a huge burden from the NHS - experts say treating the disease will account for a fifth of all health service spending by 2010.

The breakthrough was made by American researchers who injected diabetic mice with spleen cells from healthy animals.

Apart from halting the disease, the treatment rebuilt the pancreas, a process which doctors previously thought impossible.

Dr Eleanor Kennedy, research director at Diabetes UK, said: 'The initial results are potentially very exciting.

'But this research is in the very early stages and a lot more work still needs to be done.'

At this stage, the research has focused on Type-1 diabetes, which usually affects children and young adults.

Sufferers do not produce enough insulin, the hormone which helps break down glucose, and without regular injections they would die.

Type-2, the most common form, usually occurs in people who are over 45 and overweight. With up to a quarter of people now classified as obese, experts have warned the disease is reaching epidemic proportions.

The simple answer is YES. The bowels of hanging victims don't gush out.

Unless an incision was made which the bible failed to mention.
