saintmark88:uhmm. U are digging deep innit. I like that. Let me educate you a bit the Bible was VOTED to be the word of God by a group of men during the 4th century. According to Professor John Crossan of Biblical Studies at DePaul University the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great (274-337 CE),who was the first Roman Emperor to convert to Christianity, needed a single canon to be agreed upon by the Christian leaders to help him unify the remains of the Roman Empire. Until this time the various Christian leaders could not decide which books would be considered "holy" and thus "the word of God" and which ones would be excluded and not considered the word of God. Emperor Constantine, who was Roman Emperor from 306 CE until his death in 337 CE, used what motivates many to action - MONEY! He offered the various Church leaders money to agree upon a single canon that would be used by all Christians as the word of God. The Church leaders gathered together at the Council of Nicaea and voted the "word of God" into existence. The Church leaders didn't finish editing the "holy" scriptures until the Council of Trent when the Catholic Church pronounced the Canon closed. However, it seems the real approving editor of the Bible was not God but Constantine! This fact is revealed in the second counter-rebuttal to Brian Show's first rebuttal to this article. This counter-rebuttal makes the following important statement and backs it up with FACTS - "Therefore, one can easily argue that the first Christian Bible was commissioned, paid for, inspected and approved by a pagan emperor for church use." a cocooned tree cannot grow bananas.

Look at all the cursing and negative comments. Religion has drawn Nigeria more backward than forward and the painful thing is that none of it originated from our country. Just look at those that gave them to us. . . 4 Likes 1 Share |

I know this man,a very amiable man. He has a christian center,where he preaches to people in Vi then,he does not receive offerings in his service. He has a point,but gullible Nigerians take what the white man tell them hook,line and sinker without researching history. |

iamord: I dnt care about it's origin, I worship God through faith, I believe in the church Cos it is body of Christ, nd Christ the head, As far as it is a celebration tht gives Glory to God, then by faith I believe tht at Easter I celebrate the resurrection on my Lord Jesus Christ. You tht talks about it's origin, my question for you is were you born den, u only talk because of wah u av read, foolish is the man that believes all tht he reads,...........Christains worship through faith...... Not origin |

Femi Aribisala should not be taken serious. You can learn how to write a good article from him. The contents of his article should not be taken serious. That is Femi for you. Different folks with different strokes |

Bianda24:And why exactly? There is nothing written there that cannot be readily found on the internet. He did not just discover the Americas. After doing a little research of/on my own, I figure calling it Resurrection Sunday makes more sense and that we will celebrate. Jesus is Lord. God help us all. 1 Like |

sckulboy:Let me ask, do you even read the Bible? Did the Bible ever mention Mary as God's wife? Was Mary not Joseph's wife and did Joseph not even accept Jesus and treat him like a son? If you read the Bible you will know Mary gave birth to other children with Joseph. You will know about the trinity when you read the Bible. It is ONE GOD existing in THREE different forms-father,son and holy spirit. Do you expect God to have the same power as the normal human? If you read the Bible you will know where Jesus said I am going to prepare a place for you and where he charged His disciples to preach to the world before he comes back. Yes he went back to Heaven where he belongs |
