Kayberg: Let me quote God's word for you to consider: And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground (earth) any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.Genesis 8:21 And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth which he hath established for ever. Psalms 78:69 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Psalms 104:5 One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. Ecclesiastes 1:4 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bible.kingjamesbiblelite @ Genesis 8:21 God promised never to destroy the things on the earth again so think about the SYMBOLIC TERMS you're taking literally! ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |

Emusan: Armageddon will destroy only evildoers while the beautiful planet, trees and all the animals are preserved. That's what Peter meant: "But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men." 2 Peter 3:7 So only the UNGODLY will be destroyed the planet did nothing evil against God! ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |

MaxInDHouse: Imagine how you quoted a passage and translated it to something else entirely! Who are you trying to deceive and mislead? Do you even understand what you quoted in 2 Peter 3:7 at all? You see there that it was written the heavens and the earth, which are still existing now, which are kept in store by the same word are reserved unto fire! You guys can't even deceive me. Only fools will believe your explanation of that verse you contorted. See what you're finding it very very difficult to understand! 2 Peter 3 (KJV) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ⁷ But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. … ¹⁰ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. ¹¹ Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, ¹² Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? The Bible repeatedly said they shall be burned up and dissolved! You sound so Satanic with your misinterpretations. 1 Like |

Kayberg: I don't have to respond to the other man he's not interested in God's word. Now this is what Peter said: For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 2 Peter 3:5-7 So Peter isn't talking about the destruction of this planet because the heavens and earth of old was mentioned. Did God destroy heaven and earth back then? NO! Only evil people were destroyed but out of anger other creatures were affected, Peter now said by the same pronouncement both the heavens (rulers now in control) and the earth (faithless miscreants troubling the world) will be utterly destroyed, that's the import of ungodly men mentioned in the verse. For your information the HEAVENS means human rulers that people are looking forward to for relief just as the earth looks forward to the heavens for rainfall and sunshine {Isaiah 55:10} but they always promise and fail. Ecclesiastes 8:9 The EARTH are faithless miscreants troubling the planet and making life unbearable for both their own rulers and their neighbours. Isaiah 57:20 That's why your understanding of the scriptures totally negates what God said in the old testament about the earth made to last forever! Genesis 8:21; Ecclesiastes 1:4 1 Like 1 Share |

MaxInDHouse: The day you people will stop using the word "literally" is the day your salvation draws near. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The same 2 Peter 3:10 mentioned the "ELEMENTS" which means it's not about human but the very elements that make up the heavens and the Earth. "But the day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment" Your own translation put it this way "But Jehovah’s* day+ will come as a thief,+ in which the heavens will pass away+ with a roar,* but the elements being intensely hot will be dissolved, and earth and the works in it will be exposed." That's why Watchtower teaches that it'll be a miracle for JWs to survive the event. When you don't even understand your own organisation teachings ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 3 Likes |

cornelboy You said Jesus spent the next three days unconscious in hell and God raised him up the third day. How can you say JESUS CHRIST was unconscious for three days in Hell when the Bible said otherwise? 1 Peter 3 (KJV) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¹⁸ For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: ¹⁹ By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; ²⁰ Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

Kayberg: Guy Jesus was UNCONSCIOUS for 3 days and 3 nights he was nowhere to be found until God raised him from his UNCONSCIOUS state. Act 2:32; 3:15 The preaching simply means his death sounds a warning to all rebellious angels that God can send them to non-existence. Jesus was one of the angels before his earthly mission and they have all been alive since their creation till today so for Jesus to have been in a state of UNCONSCIOUSNESS means they can also be sentenced to non-existence. That's what Peter meant not that dead Jesus was somewhere preaching to anyone the dead are conscious of nothing at all! Ecclesiastes 9:5-10 ![]() |
Re: Why Do Nigerian Christians Support Trump? by Kayberg: 8:12pm On Nov 07, 2023 |
MaxInDHouse: You claim He was unconscious but He was in Hell, preaching to those there!. That does not rhyme with your description of being unconscious in Hell. The body might be unconscious, but never the souls. He was nowhere to be found, but His body was in the sepulchre! How far are you still going to go with your deception? JESUS CHRIST was never an Angel… mind you. I know you're gonna yell He's Angel Michael, but still not true, but just another heretic doctrine of you JWs. You just keep rejecting the truth of the Word of GOD over what you have been fed in your Kingdom Halls. Do you even understand anything about the way of the Spirit at all? |

Kayberg:Acts 2:31-32 [31]He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption. [32]This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. What would have happened if Jesus' soul was left in hell and wasn't raised by God? Don't you see that when Jesus died, he was lifeless, helpless and unconscious in hell (grave) untill God raised him the third day? Even if he was conscious in hell, is hell the same as paradise lol? Did he promise the thief hell that day? |

cornelboy: How do you always read your Bible to interpret it upside down? Who told you JESUS CHRIST was helpless when He died on the cross? Have you not read?: John 10 (KJV) ¹⁷ Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. ¹⁸ No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. How then was He helpless?

Kayberg:That is exactly what Boko Haram says before they start killing people so leave that to God preach your own you're not God to judge if you say mine is lies i also believe yours is lies so it's only God that can judge that. The only evidence to know who is saying the truth you will not accept it Jesus said: "By their FRUITS you will know" Matthew 7:16-18 Real disciples of Christ preach and teach from house to house {Matthew 10:11-13} they are not protesters against the government {Matthew 5:41} they don't join military to kill people {Matthew 26:52} they love neighbours {Mark 12:31} they have love among themselves {John 13:34-35} they don't think of killing their enemies but always pray for them! Luke 6:27-28 All these you can't present any group practicing it yet the one and only organization teaching their members to continue observing all these things as commanded by Christ Jesus {Matthew 28:20} you say they're teaching is wrong! John 16:2 So if all these evidences means nothing to you then there's no reason to continue arguing blindly! ![]() |

IjeBos: If you say Trump is not a Christian does that mean you're condemning his church (religion)? Most people misconstrued the group name CHRISTIANS for nice people so if a person has questionable character they will conclude that all those worshiping in the same place with him are guilty of the same offense it's like saying "Jesus' disciples are a symbol of betrayal" since Judas and Peter both betrayed him but is that the truth? NO! So what disqualifies Trump from being one of the disciples of Christ? It's his character which he is not ready to stop therefore those hailing him aren't Christians because they're hailing bad behavior. Paul said LOVE does not rejoice with unrighteousness! 1Corinthians 13:6 So when i said Trump and those hailing him are not Christians it doesn't mean i'm talking about his religion but himself as a person and those hailing him. |
