Religion / Re: Do you realize that you can actually refer to Jesus as Lucifer? by Kabieosi: 1:29am On Oct 08, 2013
esere826:

I want to talk about LUCIFER in this thread
Don't be scared, and dont run off

My aim in talking about Lucifer is to show the reader that many traditions are usually passed off as christianity gospel
I am of the view that it is important that we question what we assume to be facts as much as possible

If i told you that Jesus is/was called lucifer, what would your reaction be?

***I have not said that Jesus is satan ooooo abeg***

esere826:

In summary

I think we should start asking ourselves hard questions and challenging the status quo
Are we really listening to God or to forms and images of God?

God has not given us the spirit of fear

but of power, and of love and of a sound mind.

One shall know the truth and the truth shall make one free.

In Isaiah 14, King Nebuchadnezzar is star of the morning and then he fell etc etc

12"How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!
13"But you said in your heart, 'I will ascend to heaven;
I will raise my throne above the stars of God, And I will sit on the mount of assembly In the recesses of the north.
14'I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.

It must be noted, that Isaiah 14's King Nebuchadnezzar's self-centered heaven aspiration has similarities with Genesis 11 Tower of Babel's house of cards plan (i.e. below)

2As people moved eastward,they found a plain in Shinar and settled there.
3They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar.
4Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.

Anyway, Jerome mistranslated star of the morning first,

then the church moved in headlong lumbering satan with a Lucifer tag

and inadvertently helped satan masquerade as an angel of light

Jesus is the Lion of Judah, satan prowls around like a roaring lion - the difference is clear

Jesus is morning star, satan is not.

Word. Lucifer is good, satan is bad

First time av ever seen your post appear correct in line with scriptures!

My prayers are already yielding results. grin
I started praying for you when I perceived you have an honest desire for scriptural interpretation unlike some others who don't study scriptures and ALWAYS try to understand the bible by their senses.

No hidden agenda here, but I do pray for u


Hallelujah

@ kabiesi
if i get u right u re saying we dont get rewarded for things we did on impulse

It is not that simple

You're on a roll, if it is righteous,
- all 3 occurring at the same time.
As doing the right thing,
synced with doing the do, at the right time
and the do done, synced with a right standing with God

If not, then YOYO - You're ON Your Own

Parable of the Talents, the one talent man was punished, not for what he did (i.e. he buried the money)

but was punished for what he did not do or was expected to do (i.e. he did not use the money or was expected to invest the money)

Some are pastors preaching etc etc

when they were called to be doctors treating or making medical breakthroughs or discoveries

God will say I called you to the ward, how come you ended in the pulpit? Explain

I know this is off topic but the bolded statement hmmm,

maybe you would like to explain why we wont be judged based on what we ve done wink

@yetseyi

We won't get brownie points for things we do/did on impulse etc etc

examples like going to Kontongora when asked to go next door.

Remember the judgement and death of Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu

1And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon,
and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not.
2And there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.
@^Leviticus 10:1-2 King James Version (KJV)

Also remember Uzzah thinking he was helping out, died for touching the Ark of the Covenant (i.e. he was meant not to touch the ark regardless what)

6And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it.
7And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God
8And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah to this day.
9And David was afraid of the LORD that day, and said, How shall the ark of the LORD come to me?

lanightdavido:

A friend of mine who have been searching for job for a long time eventually found one in the nigeria brewery located at ibadan,

but he insisted that he is going to turn the offer down because brewery is a sinner doom.....

he said beer production is an evil act and he is not going to be a partaker in any evil....

I was very amazed at this reaction because it has been long he is jobless

Brewing beer is not a sin, it is the abnormal use or abuse of drinking beer that constitutes sin

Your friend got the position through God for a reason and/or purpose

and now he turned the offer and opportunity down

Mind you, God will not judge one, on what one has done (i.e. we wont be giving account of what we have done)

but one will be judged, on what one did not do as purposed by God (i.e. we will be giving account on what we did not do or left out doing as purposed by God and trying to explain why)
Religion / Re: Is There Any Difference Between Holiness And Righteousness? by Kabieosi: 1:26pm On Oct 06, 2013
Sicozone:

Nairaland bible scholars, kindly help my understanding about this, is there actually any vivid difference between holiness and righteousness?

Holiness is as in
pure,
totality,
complete,
wholesome,
containing all,
free from lack or deficiencies,
(i.e. nothing broken , nothing missing, no blemish, no fault, etc etc)
not mixed with anything, not with other substance(s) or foreign thing

Righteousness is as in:
Right timing or moment,
Right thing to do or happen
and Right with God (i.e. God is OK with it) all happening at the same time with each other

In a sentence, righteousness (i.e. the triplet word) is doing the right thing, at the right time, with right standing with God; all the 3 rights are happening at the same time with each other

For example, Abraham did the 3 rights, and they were done in perfect sync with each other

For what said the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness
@^Romans 4:3 American King James Version

To all that believe, they too have access to this righteousness of God privilege

Even the righteousness of God which is by faith in Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

noblefada:

No

Actually, in a kind of way, yes

- It is an idiom and practice/custom that a hebrew better understands and knows the meaning of and/or implication

as in the hebrew culture, this is want the groom goes about doing for his bride

but it is the groom's father (i.e. God in this instance) that ultimately approves the mansion (i.e. the extension to his house for the newly wed) for them as OK and ready for them to move in to.

So technically yes, Jesus has gone to prepare a place for the church in his father's house.

By the way a mansion is an extension to a house (i.e. a separate dwelling in a large house or structure)

Side line. Dont ask if the streets of heaven is paved with gold because the answer will be an emphatic No, not literal and physical yellow gold as we know it now or here

Religion / Re: David Did Not Kill Goliath! by Kabieosi: 10:08am On Oct 06, 2013

Dr Femi Aribisala

I went through the article yesterday

and even carried out some systematic investigation into Dr Femi Aribisala,

this was to suss him out and find out what makes him tick

It was an effort to see where is he coming from, where he is at, where he is heading

and to understand why he is controversial and/or stoking controversies

Dr Femi Aribisala should be mentioning which bible translations when quoting his scriptures

The journalist (i.e. Gbenro Adeoye) could have done a better and proper work for the record, of extracting the vital detail of which bible translation was used off Dr Femi Aribisala.

I am sorry but it has to be said, it seemed Dr Femi Aribisala had verbal diarrhea, he spoke his mind without filtering and the consequences is this extremely hilarious babble that is funny and insulting to all reading, that David did not kill Goliath.

I admire Dr Femi Aribisala's zeal but he should learn to keep his random thoughts from exploding, if he doesn't know how to shut up, to stop words from flowing out and becoming comic relief.

David was a boy when he killed Goliath, even his older brothers treated him like a boy and not a man.

He had no followers or men at this stage as he was still at home tending the sheep

- Now David went to and from Saul, looking after his father's sheep at Beth-lehem
@^1 Samuel 17:15 (Bible in Basic English)

Even King Saul said to David ". . . for you are only a boy . . ." when David volunteered to fight Goliath

- And Saul said to David,
You are not able to go out against this Philistine and have a fight with him: for you are only a boy,
and he has been a man of war from his earliest days.
@^1 Samuel 17:33 (Bible in Basic English)

Goliath had a poor opinion of David when David approached him to fight because he saw that David was only a boy.

- And when the Philistine, taking note, saw David, he had a poor opinion of him: for he was only a boy, red-haired and good-looking.
@^1 Samuel 17:42 (Bible in Basic English)

Dr Femi Aribisala is exaggerating and on cloud cuckoo land.

as 1 Samuel 17:51 and 2 Samuel 21:19 are different timelines, different Goliaths and different state of things (i.e. Single boy David and Leader Man David now leading a group of men)

- So running up to the Philistine and putting his foot on him, David took his sword out of its cover, and put him to death, cutting off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their fighter was dead, they went in flight
@^1 Samuel 17:51 (Bible in Basic English)

- And again there was war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan, the son of Jair the Beth-lehemite, put to death Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod
@^2 Samuel 21:19 (Bible in Basic English)

- And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim, a Bethlehemite, slew the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
@^2 Samuel 21:19 (King James Version)

Now KJV translators aware of 1 Chronicles 20:5, knew confusion could cause readers to mistake the Goliath killed in 1 Samuel 17:51 with the one killed in 1 Chronicles 20:5 had to insert the italicized "the brother of" in 2 Samuel 21:19 to point out the differences but others translations such as NIV, NASB, Bible in Basic English couldn't be bothered or didn't bother.

- And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver's beam
@^1 Chronicles 20:5 (Same with all versions/translations)

- by the way, a chronicle is a factual written account of important or historical events in the order of their occurrence, recording related series of events in a factual and detailed way. That is the distinction and difference of Chronicles

So, long story short, a Goliath was killed when David was a boy and a Goliath was killed by one of David's men (i.e. when David was a man and leader with followers)

Religion / Re: Pastors Collecting Tithes Are Robbers And David Did Not Kill Goliath - Aribisala by Kabieosi: 6:33pm On Oct 05, 2013
Pukkah:

You also said that David did not kill Goliath, then who did?

Let me quote the Bible to you again.

“In another battle with the Philistines at Gob, Elhanan son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite.” (2 Samiel 21:19).

Did you hear that? Goliath was killed by Elhanan, one of David’s mighty men. It is not my position. It is so stated in the Bible.

How was it done because what is in the Bible is that David killed him with a sling and a stone?

There are contradictory versions of who killed Goliath in the Bible. Under Rehoboam, Israel became divided into two kingdoms; one pro-David: the other anti-David. Both gave conflicting historical reports which were later edited into the Bible.

As a result, the Biblical record about David killing Goliath is full of contradictions and inconsistencies.

I have quoted to you the position stated in 2 Samuel. However, 1 Samuel says it was David who killed Goliath.

Having investigated both versions in the Bible, it is clear to me that the version about David killing Goliath is pure fiction.

The evidence is overwhelming that it was actually Elhanan who killed Goliath.

The problem is that Christians don’t bother to investigate these things. They simply state whatever their pastors tell them.

Most pastors don’t even bother to study the scriptures.

When you tell Christians the truth they don’t know, they shout heresy out of sheer ignorance.



ITbomb:

Having gone through the posts , I will address just 3 of the issues.
1.
.
2. Concerning David n Goliath , the people of Gath had giants among them , the reference war against the Philistines was many years after the war during Saul's rule . He mentioned 1 Sam 21:19 , he should also read 1 Chr 20:5 were the war is explicitly detailed . Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite . . . (Complementary not Contradictory)
.
3.

lorretta u:

Deep and insightful points

But you haven't said HOW and WHEN you'd like to die.
In plain and simple English

Saying how or when one will like to die without giving preparatory statements will be oversimplifying death

Death is complex and morphed because of this it would not be reasonable giving answers in plain and simple English

It will be distortion and misleading.

One dies everyday when submitting self, one to another out of reverence for Christ

Now, if pushed on HOW and WHEN I'll like to die

It will have to be HOW Jesus died and WHEN Jesus died

HOW - whilst going about the Father's business, Jesus purposely lived and died for God

and WHEN - at an appointed time, Jesus died at 33 years.

Side line:
The Parable of the Rich Fool:
16And He told them a parable, saying, "The land of a rich man was very productive.
17"And he began reasoning to himself, saying, 'What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?
18"Then he said, 'This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry."
20"But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?'
21"So is the man who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."

See this is something I always think about

How will I die?
When will I die?

The guarantee of death is with God
He told Adam that, Adam will SURELY die if he ate of the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil
and the prophecy came to pass

Jesus lived and died 33 years, when mission was accomplished.
Methuselah lived to be 969 years, that was for a reason
Stillbirths die in the womb after having survived through at least the first 28 weeks of pregnancy, that for, only God knows why.

Bottom line is, to know, how and when one dies, is God's prerogative

lorretta u:

Pretty grim thoughts for a lady in her very early twenties.right?

Wrong!

I actually find it very mystifying, the thought of death. not scary at all.

In summary I know I don't wanna go thru an accident or fire.
that's got to be horrible cry
But something has to kill a man. Right?


Death, on the face of it, seemingly is not scary,

Death misused, is death abused; an abnormal use

Adam, perchance too, will tell you that death is not scary
but that it is the sting of death that is ouch, dangerous and causes harm

It is true the thought of death can be emotionally disturbing
on the other hand, it can be a liberating experience as well

There is a good way to die and a not good way to die too

Dying in a fire does not sound like a good way to die

but how about dying in a fire, saving or trying to save another

"But something has to kill a man. Right?" - I read

Well Ecclesiastes 3:2 says "a time to be born and a time to die"

so we are resigned to the fact that people are destined to die and after that to face judgment

We all are on borrowed time and on the day of reckoning, we will give accountability

We all will be called to give account of the five, two or one talent(s) given out

and explain all our activities, after which results will be disclosed

lorretta u:

Most people would like to die of old age.

I don't know if I want that. I see very very old people and I feel sorry for them.

I don't wanna grow very old. the guiness-book-of -records kind of old.
I'd rather I get to early old age(70+) and just go to bed and not wake up on anyday I choose. but that's kinda too much to ask isn't it?

But that's how I wanna go.

Or if I have to die of illness,maybe a sudden heart attack. nothing protracted.

So friends over to you. how and when would you like to die?

Let the fun begin smiley

The quantity of years does not count - i.e. number in the years
it is the quality of the years that matters - i.e. service in the years

It is not about the number of years in life, spent on ourselves selfishly
but it is about the number of lives in the years touched when about the Father's business selflessly

God lived 33 years and checked out after/when the final business of the day was done
as to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord

God wants us to DIE too also,
To die daily, continuously dying, dying to self.
Self must and has to die

24 Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die,
it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit

"how and when would you like to die? Let the fun begin"? - I read
Well, it's about the Father's business.
whether we like to die or not,
I, me and myself must die
as our existence has nothing to with us,
but has all and everything to do with God' will, pleasure and purpose
and none of that Eve jagbanjantis pride of life make one wise stuff
prematurely desiring gain or to be something apart from the will of God


7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him

11 Thou art worthy, O Lord,
to receive glory and honour and power:
for thou hast created all things,
and for thy pleasure they are and were created

Death, though at the moment is still relevant,
it has a shelf life
Hurray!

That been said, now is the accepted time
notice, now is the day of salvation
Anyone who reads this can join in the fun

Jesus is Tree of Life, the same way He is the Living Bread

Notice the "live forever" synonym in the below verse

Adam can not be allowed to eat of the tree of life

and then live forever in His depraved state without redemption

51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
^ John 6:51 New International Version (NIV)

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
^ John 6:51 King James Version (KJV)

How is Jesus a tree?

Mind back ing your point with bible pls

Giving a simple and short reply

God is "I Am that I Am"

De facto, means "I Will Be What I Will Be"

14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.

When food is served in groundnut pods,
there will be diners or people eating to one's fill
and/or getting their fill from eating off the pods.

Jamey Maxwell:
It was around 5am in the morning when this happened.
I was taking a walk down the street and as usual, not a single being was in sight. I've been doing this for quite sometime and didn't expect anything strange to happen.
I was thinking of a problem I had when suddenly I heard a still voice in my mind.
“MY SON, I WANT TO SPEAK WITH YOU”.
At first,I was confused a little but decided to ignore it.
“MY SON, I WANT TO SPEAK WITH YOU”.
I looked around, still nobody in sight. I continued walking.

Lordlexyy:

That night, amidst fear and discomfort, i slept. Suddenly, i found myself awoken. What i saw on the wall very close to where my bed was, was a huge figure of a muscular man. A figure i never saw b4. Immediately i turned, he was staring at me. The arms were stretch. The amazing thing was that; the room was dark, but i could see him perfectly. Secondly, that fear in me, instantly disappeared. I turned, went back to sleep and that day marks the end of any fear in my life. Deep down in my spirit, i knew it was an angel. .

Paraesthesia or paresthesia is the tingling feeling in the body which people experience as a direct result of exposure to a irrational object, especially one WHICH seems like something that can be seen and/or looks it can be touched

The tingling feeling or sensation can also be felt, immediately after becoming aware of strange suspicious and unnatural presence in a room, when alone or by oneself

These dream, presence or beings deviates from what is standard, normal or the naturally expected and so can lead to/cause panic attacks and/or paralysis, if something is not said or done to remove any doubts or fears of the unfamiliar territory.

There have been countless stories by pastors and ordinary people, such as the these two postings, seeing angels, seeing Jesus etc but over the years, just as with these also, most, if not all one of them, never mention "The Lord is with thee" or the all time "Don’t be afraid" interjection nor the other "Fear not" classic when describing what happened.

Addito salis grano, besides, no marvel, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light, and skeptics are not ignorant of his devices, lest Satan should get an advantage.

15 After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
^Genesis 15:1 King James Version (KJV)

24 And the[b] Lord appeared unto him the same night[/b], and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.
^ Genesis 26:24 King James Version (KJV)

21 And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.
^ Genesis 21:17 King James Version (KJV)

11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John
^Luke 1:11-13King James Version (KJV)

3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified
^Matthew 28:3-5 King James Version (KJV)

19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
^John 6:19-20 King James Version (KJV)

26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
^Matthew 14:26-27 King James Version (KJV)

Religion / Re: A Bird Caught With Rings On Its Legs by Kabieosi: 10:39pm On Sep 23, 2013
jechona:
Take a look at what was caught by the net in a fish farm in Osun State. i dont know what type of bird this is.

Bird ringing or bird banding is a technique used in the study of wild birds, by attaching a small, individually numbered, metal or plastic tag to their legs or wings, so that various aspects of the bird's life can be studied by the measurements taken during the capture, such as molt, fat content, age, sex, wing and tail

When a ringed bird is found, and the ring number read and reported back to the ringer or ringing authority, this is termed a ringing recovery or control.

The finder can contact the address on the ring, give the unique number, and be told the known history of the bird's movements.

Some national ringing/banding authorities also accept reports by phone or on official web sites.

Religion / Re: Who Sinned First, Satan Or Adam ? by Kabieosi: 11:36pm On Sep 22, 2013
plaetton: Another simple question.
Who committed the first act of disobedience and usurped the blissful paradise of peace of both heaven and earth?
Was it the Satan or Adam?

If it was Satan, common sense would have required God to shield the newly created earth, especially impressionable newborns like Adam and Eve, from the influences of Satan .
To have allowed that to happen would have been gross negligence of the highest form.

Even more absurd is the fact that the impressionable newborns are thereafter punished for an event that should not have happened if the right measures had been taken.

Even more absurd is that the innocent offsprings of Adam and Eve are condemned for eternity for the sins of their own , but for the lapse in judgement of the first Babysitter.

Adam needed no babysitter, he was a grown man and administrator capable enough to be left in charge of the keeping of Eden

but Adam was headstrong, he was intent on having he's own way

Adam was not deceived, nor aided and abetted by Satan

There is a Redeemer - Adam and Eve's off-springs are not condemned for eternity

At the appropriate time, sin will be dealt with and it will exist no more

So what is the complaint, what is the grumble about?

Put on your shades, the future is bright smiley

And what is the big deal about Pastor Kumuyi appearing on TV

Oh I just remembered he once labelled the TV as the devil's box and banned his members from watching and owning TVs.

Can we now call this hypocrisy on his part since he now uses the devil's instrument to spread his message.

Religion / Have You Prepared For Death? by Kabieosi: 8:41pm On Sep 22, 2013


The recent demise' at the Westgate shopping centre in Nairobi, Kenya is a somber experience.

For some injured, it was a duel, an unsavoury race to the touchline between death and the ambulance services

It served as a reminder of death

and also a warning that we are living on borrowed time

causing one to remember, we will one day die

Are you ready for death? Have you prepared for death?

Remember you will surely die.

Physical death is unavoidable, you are not immortal
Would have continued but the timer was set to 10 minutes to write this and now the time is up
- God permitting, will continue in the future, in another posting
