Tboymessiah:Prayer is a means by which we are to ask/seek/knock for what we need or desire. And even at that, prayer has to be done in obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, not as you like it. For instance, Jesus Christ made it clear in His teachings that God will not answer prayers when they are said aloud, or when others see us praying. 5 “When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites. They love to stand in the synagogues and on the street corners and pray loudly. They want people to see them. The truth is, that’s all the reward they will get.These rules are meant to be obeyed, and no amount of praying can counter them. God already knows what we need and desire from Him. And He could provide for our needs even without us asking for it all. But what God wants from us is our obedience - it is a requirement, so He commands that we ask Him in obedience in order to receive from Him that which we desire. 1 Like |

Maynman:You are still quoting archaic period war that Muslims started in their time of devil's possession. And mind you the crusaders were initiated by the Roman Catholic the same people that killed Christ, that made the true believers of Christ to protest (protestants) the killings. For Protestant Christians, Luther made clear that the Bible is the "Sola Skriptura," God's only book, in which He provided His revelations to the people and which allows them to enter in communion with Him. Catholics, on the other hand, do not base their beliefs on the Bible alone. I will still ask you again, can you please tell me any time after that archaic period war, that Christians killed or maimed anyone for religion? Then I will give you more than 10 of Muslim this year or even only this month. |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Kobojunkie: 5:46pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero:By what authority did Luther make such a declaration? Jesus Christ, God's own New Covenant, never said your Bible is God's only book nor did He limit His own to only the set of books contained in your Bible, so by whose authority did Luther, and his parent catholic church, make that claim? |

Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by babajero(m): 5:47pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Maynman:I have read what you posted there was no where it said that they killed for Christ, it was just the Roman Catholic fighting for domination and suppression, just like Muslims, but with years Catholic has become more matured and have eschewed all their archaic traits and rather used their knowledge for the development of mankind, but Muslims mentality are still stuck in the archaic period, that is why Muslims are still killing and maiming people till today. |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Maynman: 5:53pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero: So you haven’t read on Crusader before yet you making those claims earlier? Without Crusaders and Roman Catholic, christianity won’t have spread and you won’t be a Chrestian. And besides the New Testament you have now was created by Roman Catholic.. Roman Catholic even killed other sects apart from theirs. In the next 100 years, islam too will play “maturity and won’t be stuck in archaic period” There’s no Religion that has killed more people than Chrestianity.

harmony75:Your emotional high has nothing to do with God though who instead said His salvation belongs only to those who live their lives in continuous submission to and obedience to His teachings and commandments in Jesus Christ - live a life of faith- until the end - Matthew 24 vs 13 & Mark 13 vs 13.. Straightforward? How so? |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Kobojunkie: 6:02pm On Aug 28, 2022 |

babajero: What century is this “archaic period war” that muslims started war? Mention the century and we look through history. And mind you, crusaders didn’t just kill muslims, they killed other sects that’s not Roman Catholic, they killed jews, fought in political wars, supported byzantine empire, killed non chrestians. This same people you say killed Christ were the one that created the New Testament you are holding and quoting “christ” and they also created the foundation of Chrestianity, with all these, shouldn’t you be wary of their book with UNKNOWN AUTHORS? Protestant was created out of Roman Catholic during the GREAT SCHISM I’ll still ask again, can you please mention the century of these “archaic time” and I’ll tell you the other non muslims and jews that they killed after that “archaic period” No religion has killed more people than chrestianity

The meaning of mitzvot Judaism is a system of mitzvot - actions we are to perform or to avoid day in and day out. These mitzvot, based on the Torah and the interpretations of the Sages, reflect Judaism's understanding of what it means to live a Godly life. Although it is possible to discuss the mitzvot individually and the reasons for observing them - and the Sages themselves found reasons for the vast majority of them, as did Maimonides and other Jewish philosophers - it is also possible to look for a general principle or purpose that governs the entire system. If that principle is valid, then perhaps it is worth observing the mitzvot regardless of one's point of view. Rabbi Hertzel Fishman often quoted the rabbinic statement "The mitzvot were given only in order to purify human beings as a justification for observing them today. Thus the entire purpose of observing any of them is in order to improve ourselves, to make us better people - more caring, more loving, more concerned. The mitzvot are not magic, they do not help God nor do they earn us rewards, but they are valuable for the way in which they improve our character and thereby benefit the society in which we live. Rabbinic literature also reflects this desire to find an underlying principle behind the way of mitzvot. Rabbi Simlai, a 3rd century Amora, taught that David reduced the 613 mitzvot to 11, Isaiah to six, Micah to three (do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before Your God, Isaiah again to two (keep justice and do righteousnes and finally Amos to one, "Seek Me and live." Simlai was not saying that we did not need to observe the 613 mitzvot, something that Pauline Christianity had asserted, but rather that all the mitzvot were to be seen as an attempt to bring justice and righteousness into the world. They are our way of truly seeking God. The 613 mitzvot are details of a larger philosophy, a greater belief, intended to improve the character of each person. That which distinguishes Judaism as a religious way of life is the emphasis on deeds rather than on abstract belief. This does not denigrate the importance of belief, indeed a belief in God as One and as concerned with morality is the basis of Judaism, but these beliefs must be translated into specific deeds. Moreover, actions are the way in which character is molded. Another attempt to find the basic principle underlying the Torah, the principle behind all the mitzvot, was made earlier by the great Rabbi Akiba. He said that "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Leviticus 19:18) was the basic principle. In this teaching, Akiba followed his predecessor, Hillel the Elder, who told a non-Jew who was willing to convert if Hillel could teach him all the Torah while standing on one foot, "That which is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow. That is all the Torah. The rest is commentary." This was a negative Aramaic formulation of the verse "Love your neighbor as yourself." By this Akiba and Hillel meant that all the mitzvot had but one purpose: to produce a person who would love his neighbor. The real test of one's religiosity then, is not so much in the scrupulous observance of each detail, or in the numerical adding up of how many mitzvot one has observed, but in the way in which this observance has changed the individual. Are we "purified" by our observance, more loving of our fellow? If so, the performance of the mitzvot has achieved its purpose. If not, it has been in vain. 1 Like |

Maynman:So you haven’t read on Crusader before yet you making those claims earlier? There was no time I told you I haven't read about it, I was just responding to your screen shot, just the same way you people screen shot a particular place in the Bible when you want to gloat. Without Crusaders and Roman Catholic, christianity won’t have spread and you won’t be a Chrestian. And besides the New Testament you have now was created by Roman Catholic.. Roman Catholic even killed other sects apart from theirs. Now I know you are very myopic, even before Muhammed started receiving his revelation that he was forcing everyone to believe, Christianity have spread it was even the Romans that was trying to suppress Christianity. And I can't say Roman Catholic didn't kill in the past they even killed Christ but what about today?. In the next 100 years, islam too will play “maturity and won’t be stuck in archaic period” even in the next thousand years Islam can ever mature, as far as the Muslims still swallow every lie told them hook line and sinker, without even applying little of their own common sense. There’s no Religion that has killed more people than Chrestianity. The death Islam have brought upon the world in the last 10 years alone surpassed every death caused by the crusaders in the years they lasted, the crusaders used archaic weapons like sword, axe and other mediaeval weapons, but today Islam is using bombs, ak47, rockets so compare and contrast. |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Maynman: 7:34pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero: You’ve read about crusaders and you didn’t see where they are killing jews? Other Christian sects and non Muslims? What century did christianity start? What century was “bible” finally complied and went through CANON? Don’t confuse Judaism for Christianity! Roman Catholic literally created Christianity. If you are not Dumb you’ll know that! Without Roman Catholic there’s no christianity, if you doubt, let’s walk down history together Roman Catholic created the New Testament the only place your chrest is found. Even the trinity you worship is TERTULIAN idea bwahahahah Without those blood thirsty Crusaders you won’t be a Chrestian and they are the ones you are supporting, saying they did the KILLINGS and GENOCIDE in “archaic time”, the lives they killed were “archaic” too? Islam too will borrow that idea There’s no religion that has killed more people than than Chrestianity

Kobojunkie:I am sorry my brother this knowledge is not for canal minds. |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Kobojunkie: 8:31pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero:Where did Jesus Christ tell you that the knowledge I ask of you is not for carnal minds as you claim? Jesus Christ's disciples were all sinners when He called them to Himself. Even after His death, they didn't understand much of what He thought them yet that did not dissuade Him from pouring out His knowledge to them. So who are you to decide of your own whether one is not worthy of knowledge that is of Jesus Christ? |

Maynman: What century is this “archaic period war” that muslims started war? Mention the century and we look through history. Right from the time of Mohammed because he was the one that started the barbarism. And mind you, crusaders didn’t just kill muslims, they killed other sects that’s not Roman Catholic, they killed jews, fought in political wars, supported byzantine empire, killed non chrestians. Yes, because they are political just like Islamism, but they didn't kill for Christ. This same people you say killed Christ were the one that created the New Testament you are holding and quoting “christ” and they also created the foundation of Chrestianity, with all these, shouldn’t you be wary of their book with [b]UNKNOWN AUTHORS?[/b] Catholic didn't create New Testament rather after killing the followers of Christ and trying to suppress Christianity for years without success and with many of their people accepting Christ, they didn't have any option than to Canonize the words written by the apostles, and compiled them together. But I can't really speak for chrestianity because I really don't know about them. Protestant was created out of Roman Catholic during the [b]GREAT SCHISM[/b] I didn't argue that the protestants are not breakaway from Catholic, and till date the both live in harmony and believe in Christ. But I can't say same about Sunni and Shia, or have you forgotten what happened in Kaduna? I’ll still ask again, can you please mention the century of these “archaic time” and I’ll tell you the other [b]non muslims and jews that they killed after that “archaic period”[/b] Like I said it started in time of Muhammed. [b]No religion has killed more people than chrestianity[b] I can't argue with you on that, chrestianity have really killed and maimed humans like animals because anything affiliated to Islam behaves like a beast. But Christianity on the other hand believe in Love and forgiveness. |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Maynman: 9:04pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero: Is it the same time that they killed jews and non muslims too? Who started that? We need a century date, it shouldn’t be hard since you’ve read on it. In the history you read, they said anything about “mohammed time” You are speaking too lame for someone that has TRUTHFULLY read on it. I understand, anything to defend your deity and religion. https://www.history.com/.amp/topics/middle-ages/crusades No religion has killed more people than Chrestianity

Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Maynman: 9:40pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero: All the books in the New Testament are from [b]UNKNOWN AUTHORS , it was Roman Catholic that gave names to it, edited it and complied it to make New Testament. And the CANON is for accepting a book or rejecting it according to how early church fathers feel. Chrestian, have you forgotten the name AGRIPPA II called you in antioch? The original and early New Testament is called codex sinaiticus. I’m glad you lack knowledge of the random books you base your life on. Roman Catholic created christianity you are worshipping now, and they also killed Christ like you said Bwahahahaha What do you mean “time of mohammed?” When did mohammed die?What century? When was crusader created? What century? And mind you, crusaders didn’t just kill muslims, they killed other sects that’s not Roman Catholic, they killed jews, fought in political wars, supported byzantine empire, killed non chrestians. NO RELIGION HAS KILLED MORE PEOPLE THAN CHRESTIANITY Christianity believes in love and forgiveness that they even had to kill other christian sects that doesn’t follow mainstream doctrine

Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Kobojunkie: 9:46pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero:Really? So the questions I asked so far don't clearly inform you that I want to receive this knowledge of Jesus Christ? 1. Please explain! Where did Jesus Christ give to men this authority you speak of? What has being Christian to do with this authority you claim men have from Jesus Christ? 2. What exactly do you mean by the statement in bold? 3. Where did Jesus Christ tell you that the knowledge I ask of you is not for carnal minds as you claim? 4. Jesus Christ's disciples were all sinners when He called them to Himself. Even after His death, they didn't understand much of what He thought them yet that did not dissuade Him from pouring out His knowledge to them. So who are you to decide of your own whether one is not worthy of knowledge that is of [b][/b]Jesus Christ? |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by babajero(m): 9:56pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:What exactly do you mean by the statement in bold? It means if not for the words of Christ that taught about Love and forgiveness, we would have been replicating what the Israeli are doing to you by fighting back and defending ourselves, because you people are very wicked and devilish. |
Re: Life Is Very Hard Without God by Kobojunkie: 10:02pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
babajero:But according to Jesus Christ instead it is because His kingdom is not of this world, He has called none of them to fight back in much the same way that Israel, a nation in this world. So are you sure you know Jesus Christ? 35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”I ask because you don't seem to even realize why it is you can't, as a follower of Jesus Christ, act as the Israelites do. 1. So please explain! Where did Jesus Christ give to men this authority you speak of? What has being Christian to do with this authority you claim men have from Jesus Christ? |
