dexmundo:Jesus also went into the grave to fulfill the scripture, meaning he met with those already dead meaning God gave them a last opportunity but I believe as many alive still don't see Jesus as their lord and savior so are many in the grave when Jesus gave up his life and he resurrected the third day, all these to fulfill the scripture. I hope am correct. |

lastpage: No, I don't get it. And neither do you. Typically, you are just making it up as you go. First, are you saying that animals have souls ? And that your god feeds on the souls of animals? in otherwords, god demanded to be fed the souls of animals as away of showing your obedience to him? Interesting indeed. Pls answer. lastpage: With all due respect, this is not only false, but ignorant . All pagan traditions perform animal sacrifice. lastpage: So god graduated from consuming animal flesh,blood and soul, to consuming the blood of humans, in this case Jesus, his only son too, just to appease his appetite? And this transition from animal soul to human soul supposedly made him a better , more loving god than he was in the old testament era? Very interesting! And so, as a result of this regime change, you can loot your country's treasury, shout "In the mighty name and blood or jesus", and Viola!, yours sins are forgiven ? Nooooo wonder. 2 Likes |

kimond101: All these prophets you mentioned were Jews and the bible gives a logical link between all of them and how they all pointed unequivocally to the coming of Christ. In fact specific mentions were made about Christ's birth, life and death. The Jews were fully aware of the fact that a messiah was coming. This messiah was to bring total and final redemption to humanity. So to deviate from the plan of God by bringing a non Jew of whom nothing had been said previously with regards to the salvation of mankind is impossible! Now every one can come to God because of the sacrifice of Christ, no one else but Christ alone. |

All those the OP mentioned (except Mohammed) were waiting in anticipation of the coming of the promise( Christ the Messiah) i.e the New Convenant, and had a Personal (Abraham)or National (Israel) convenant with God. Mohammed is Post Christ and does not subscribe to the Convenant of Christ. |

Peaceisgold: Don't pity me sister I know better. I believe in what science can prove. What religion can't prove they shield it with "just have faith". Forgive me for being a "doubting Thomas". But last I read the bible it said "blessed are those who don't see but believe". It didn't say not believing before seeing is a sin. Saul/Saul saw before he believed. If I don't get to see and don't believe and then I'm condemned for not believing how is that fair. Democracy is giving everybody a level playing field with the same rules. Say no to DICTATORSHIP!!!!!! 1 Like |

Iamsynord: It's all a lie ... made up to control you. Free yourself from all organized religion and you'll have a better life. I think Gloria Steinem said it better than anything I could think of. She said: It’s an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their reward systems don’t try to make it posthumous. Think about the whole idea of someone dying for you for a minute. The all powerful God had no other idea than to come down and be beaten mercilessly just so he could show a group of maybe 200 or 300 people that he's God.That's the definition of over complication in my book. Someone that said "let there be light" and there was light would have created a more perfect and sinless human. |

Chinaimporter:My dear brother, take a deep breath and cool down. The things of the spirit are not usually comprehended with human reason, for it transcends man's intellect and would remain so, as this makes more conspicuous the difference and dissimilarity between the physical and spiritual. Your deductions may not be inapt and incongruous when the God-reality is appraised and looked at with rational spectacles. The fact is and would always remain that Christ Jesus--God--cannot be known and adequately understood via rational considerations, but only by the medium of FAITH. What is faith? Faith is the confidence that things one hopes or hoped for is and would happen. It is a strong conviction in things one cannot and is yet to see. Faith and reason are opposites in that the former is based not entirely on facts while the latter is based mainly on facts and their verification thereof. That is to say that faith begins where reason ends or stops. Affirming that human reason has no limits is tantamount to self-deception and proves one's unwillingness to toe the shining line of truth. This is particularly evident in the age-old inability of scientists, whose locus standi suggests atheism most of the time, to proffer a satisfactory and cogent explanation about the beginning of the beginning of the much-extolled Evolution and Big-Bang Theories. They grapple till date with a pertinent and cannot-be-ignored question--Where did the beginning begin? The relevance of this poser is brought to light more by their avowal of the Causality Principle which states that "For every effect, there must be a cause." If evolution or the big-bang is the effect, then what is the cause? Even if they claim to have any plausible explanation for this, it would only be conjectures; bold guesses desperately seeking for a way to hold water. With these in view, the importance of faith in unravelling this mystery and other similar ones becomes fundamental. As for the attribute of "wickedness'' you and most atheists ascribe to God for reasons you outlined, it can be correctly said that such submission is out of place, portrays a misunderstanding of the nature of God, and should be dismissed with a wave of the hand. God is inherently good, merciful, and perfect. And since this is validated by His apparent decision to still keep you alive and sane now despite your unkind and insultive words to and about Him, hastily claiming that He is "wicked" would amount to fallacy and contradiction. Also, God is omniscient, that is, all knowing and if you believe so (either implicitly or explicitly), it would be inconsistent and unreasonable to question His actions and inactions in various situations of people's lives. He alone knows everything and what is best or worst for the creature He made in His own Image and Likeness at every point in time. God is God and all powerful. And even Lucifer, who you sympathise with, is under Him and forever will be. Dear friend, Christ Jesus still loves you, and awaits your return from the land of misconception and deceit. Give Him your hand in salvation. 2 Likes |

muraj1:The Bible's condemnation of homosexuality is as clear and plain as the Bible's condemnation of murder, adultery, premarital sex, kidnapping, lying and idolatry. Here are more Bible quotes, Lev 18:22-23 "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination." Lev 20:13 "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death." 1 Cor 6:9 "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals" 1 Tim 1:9-10 "realizing the fact that (civil) law is not made for a righteous man, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers" Rom 1:26-27 "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error." |

Religion is just a belief, Heaven and Hell is an imaginary place. Apart from people that died before Christ, Millions, possibly Billions have died after Christ without smelling his name. Hence if God is there He will not just select Christ followers. The speculation remain religion is just a belief nothing more 2 Likes |

Of course, the saviour was and will always remain right... Redemption is only possible through the teachings of Jesus! There's nobody in the history of mankind who share the same origin with the Son of God and the Son of Man! Jesus is the Word Incarnate who is inseperable with God the Father. Therefore Jesus is however qualified to make such statement! That such sayings of Jesus still confuse a lot of people today is a clear proof of a narrow spiritual receptivity. Earlier generations of mankind have a fair share of prophets who warn them to turn away from sin. Had mankind follow the teachings of these prophets, they would have greatly evolved spiritually. What these prophets taught mankind was inspired by divine revelations. However, these prophets are human beings who have lived their life naturally, not like the rest of mankind. A natural lifestyle which enable them to evolve spiritually to a greater degree. Thus, these prophets becomes gifted. The step they reached spiritually enable them to become receptive to divine revelations. These revelations helped a greater percentage of humanity to adjust their life to God's Will Even a prophets who have greatly evolved spiritually only have a part knowledge of the entire universe. He's only permitted to understand what his spiritual origin affords him to grasp. Jesus, a higher authority possess an infinitely greater awareness than a prophets! Jesus had to come when it was seen from above that humanity is dangerously drifting in darkness. Had Jesus not come, that would been a worse history for mankind - if not the end! A new era of love was born as a divinity of God enter the material part of the universe! An era of hope which nobody can afford, not even a prophet. Why it is so is because the presence of Jesus here allows a CONCENTRATION OF DIVINE POWER to be focused on earth Nobody is equipped with such extra ordinary capacity except Jesus and the prophesy Son of Man! Lets give thanks to God for His loving intervention in the history of mankind |

Chinaimporter: .[size=14pt]......i see you're sharing the same gall of bitterness with satan. One of your greatest misgiving and delusion is that satan, whom you call lucifer loves you and is committed to your welbeing. Don't worry, you will soon find out. The only problem is that there will be no nairaland or internet there for you to share your new experiences and "lifestyle". And maybe,( just to get a foretaste of your destination) you should get a candle, light it up, and put a finger in it for about 10mins if you can. But if you can't, then affectionately imagine that pain going through your body in full heat, but the body is not consumed for the next 1, 10, 30,60,100,250,500,1000, 1000000, and unending years. By then whether you like it or not, every knee shall bow(including yours & satan's), and every tongue(including yours & satan's) shall confess, Jesus Christ is the Lord. And for those that clicked "like" & "shares" to the trash written by the deluded above, same goes for you. You see all this grammar you're spewing here, by then you will know it was foolish of you to dare what makes satan your master tremble. If he (satan) truly loves you, he will let you know he has no future. Though, i will not be surprised if it is satan himself personally that has signed up to nairaland as chinaimporter! [/size] Chinaimporter: [size=14pt].......even satan will not spew rubbish like this. You call satan real, but Jesus, imaginary person. You're not really intelligent! I can see f.uck is hungering you, don't worry my sex-crazed and disillusioned friend, very soon, you will f.uck & f.uck till you want no more, but the f.ucking wount stop cos it will be demons molesting your sorry ass in your paradise of hell![/size] ....... 2 Likes |
