Why Do Christians "Not Follow" The Old Testament by benzics(m): 6:47pm On Dec 28, 2016 |
Hello As usual, I hate long posts, so let's just go straight to the point. Lol, maybe from the title most of you theists are already like "old things are passed away", But wait, is that true? am going to expose few of the many double standards by Christians here.. [size=20pt] Old things [/size] Killing Unbelievers( Deuteronomy : 17) Taking it out of context again! That was the olden days.. Old testament! Ignore it. Killing deflowered(non Virgins) ladies (Deut.22: 13) Why do you Atheists not understand the Bible? It's the old testament dude. Keep Slaves (Exod: 21) You don't understand the Bible, do you? Out of context. Kill a child who hits his father (Exod. 21) Old testament! Kill believers of other religions (Exodus: 22) Christianity is love , that is the old testament. OK... [size=20px] BUT wait.. [/size] Collect Tithes (Leviticus : 27) Yes, it's the old testament, but don't question it, pay your tithes! Kill / Hate Homosexuals (Lev. 20:13) According to anas09, homosexuals are disgusting, scums of the earth, kill them, God did not create Adam and Steve. Unbelievers are fools (psalm 14: 1-3) We don't care, it's the law of God! Unbelievers are fools. I could go on and on, but that will make the post longer.. Now who are Christians to choose (Cherry pick) which laws to follow and which not to? KingEbukasBlog, 4evergod, naijadeyhia Notjonbellion, hopefulLandlord, hahn, HardMirror, randomperson

There are other religion that started with old testament which Christianity is not part of. Christianity centers more on Jesus Christ and thus the name. "Christ-like" Christianity came during the AD Reason why we have old testament BC and new testament. AD New testament ushers us into new way of life based on grace which Jesus Christ is the chief pioneer. The greatest law that was introduced during this time is faith and Love. The old testament was preserved to teach the Christians about certain aspects of life one is bound to encounter in his sojourn on earth. You might also like

We have 10 commandments and Jesus laws to follow, why then do we have to follow all brutal laws of moses? Moses established the old testament laws to keep the laws (10 commandments) , Jesus laws didn't abolish all laws but kept few of them. #myopinion. 1 Like |

Re: Why Do Christians "Not Follow" The Old Testament by Eastactivist: 9:46pm On Dec 28, 2016 |
benzics: Is that all your problem? Well, why not start by telling me the ones that we do not like from the new testament? Reminder : You need the Old Testament because it points us to Christ and instructs us in godly living, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. Romans 15:4: “For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.” |

Eastactivist: People like this jihadi are the people who has resorted never to give Islam a good name opening a thread to scribble nonsense when they haven't taken the log away from their eyes. What does he even know about Christianity? After his very stupid imams talk rubbish to him, he comes online to display his act of abject idiocy. Look at how backward their lives are. The problems here and there you have stirred up, shay e never do them abi? Come day talk nonsense about Christ, the same Christ mohammed and the other fellows of Islam copied from the bible. If he obviously has nothing doing, he should go and make peace with his household, Go make peace with Shia, make peace with his God then come back here to talk. After copying 75% of the bible into your Quran to claim credibility, still kill christians and have guts to rant bullshit on forums, is he seriously sick or mad or what? |
Re: Why Do Christians "Not Follow" The Old Testament by benzics(m): 10:11pm On Dec 28, 2016 |

[quote author=peacesamuel94 post=52342651][/quote] Don't talk to this fool. Why would an idiot come and insult Christianity in forums and you handling it with kid gloves. You want Christianity to die out? Well I don't, if this guy were close to me, God knows what I'd do to him by now, maybe he's Muslim, atheist whatever. If he doesn't have salvation from God, let him buy it if he has to, if he's too dead to, he can go to hell. It's time people stop insulting Christianity on this forum, what the Bleep is wrong with this people. 2 Likes |

Hello I thought you are an atheist why bother with what Christians believe or do not believe. you are very insecure . But have u really read the bible? ............ no. Christianity is more of an experience compared to religion. Read to understand first then u can now criticize thanks. [/quote] |
Re: Why Do Christians "Not Follow" The Old Testament by Whytelyon(m): 10:53pm On Dec 28, 2016 |
peacesamuel94: That's why I gave the reply I gave. Christianity the idiot talks of that's at war with each other catholic against protestants etc. In the romantic catholic church of Present day they have the charismatics which are the pentecostal version of the Catholic Church, they have the anglican, they have methodist, they have Jewish christians and etc, when we pray inside the bus, and sing,do we sing with different voices? One madman who comes here talks so many rubbish he doesn't know. If he wants to know about Christianity, he should come to the church and see things for himself. If Christianity was as demonic as he paints it, yet Shia muslims in Kaduna come to celebrate with us during xmas, and other religions, yet we are this barbaric, have a twisted gospel and what not..isnt this guy's very stupid. Must they come and say repeated rubbish about christians and you keep quiet. This is Christianity we are talking about here. Not some drunken religion. Our Lord and saviour Jesus is respected in all Abrahamaic religions, Islam is part of that religion is either they respect christians, Jesus or they can go to hell. Be it Islam or atheist or even buddha as well. Don't be soft on these fellows. Idiots like these are bent on giving our Christianity a bad name. We not paying jizya, let me remind you and we run democracy and not sharia, he can wait when there is full blown sharia he can rant his rubbish as he pleases. I know where he's driving at,and I swear am gonna give them a hard time here as many as they choose to insult christians. 1 Like |
