I'm glad you find your strawman tactics amusing grin cheesy. Still doesn't change the fact that you've got nothing to prove Yahweh's existence (notice I didn't say god). Go on, still waiting.

Hello

Wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction and there are multitudes walking on that road...while narrow is the road that leads to life and there are few who find it.

Op, you only just confirmed the Scriptures. As the days get darker many will fall into sin but those who know their God shall rise and do exploits.

If your Jesus could save anybody, your so called churches would not have been inundated and plagued with the grossest sinners on this planet.

They're "the lost GOATS of the house of ATHEISM" so they've discovered where they truthfully belong.
Many are still coming to join the family but note that TRUE Christians aren't just churchgoers, they're the "lost SHEEP of Israel's house" and many (even amongst the so called atheists today) are still coming to join the global family of God's children.
Well that's the last PROPHECY to be fulfilled before God's kingdom comes! So keep cheering with your newly found brothers in ATHEISM while TRUE Christians are also jubilating for finding their lost brothers one by one! wink wink wink

- My ancestors were something before Jesus and I will remain great without Jesus now and forevermore.
- Note, I am not arguing against God per se
- But Jesus is not needed for salvation, now - tomorrow - or ever.

Besides I am not sure if this is the Angel Jesus or Trinity Jesus cheesy

First of all Jesus is now a ruling King so you can address my own Jesus as King Jesus! wink wink wink
Of course there is NO creature that existed without Jesus but since you don't know Him there's no problem, you can tactfully or sarcastically ask thought provoking questions to know about the King and let's see how far your ancestors truly survived WITHOUT Jesus! smiley smiley smiley

You know it's bullsh1t because Jesus prayed thus ;

John 17:21 English Standard Version (ESV)
21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me

PervertProphet:


You remind me of Voltaire who predicted the extinction of the Bible but 100 years after. His estate becomes the Bible Society Headquarters. Others like Friedrich Nietzsche, and Bertrand Russell, Sam Harris, etcetera have continued to hit at the Christianity. The truth is all of you will fail. Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take
counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their
cords from us.(Psalm 2:1-3).

False prophets appeared in the past among the people, and in the same way false teachers will appear among you. They will bring in destructive, untrue doctrines, and will deny the Master who redeemed them, and so they will bring upon themselves sudden destruction. Even so, many will follow their immoral ways; and because of what they do, others will speak evil of the Way of truth. In their greed these false teachers will make a profit out of telling you made-up stories. For a long time now their Judge has been ready, and their Destroyer has been wide awake! God did not spare the angels who sinned, but threw them into hell, where they are kept chained in darkness, waiting for the Day of Judgement. God did not spare the ancient world, but brought the flood on the world of godless people; the only ones he saved were Noah, who preached righteousness, and seven other people. God condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, destroying them with fire, and made them an example of what will happen to the godless. He rescued Lot, a good man, who was distressed by the immoral conduct of lawless people. That good man lived among them, and day after day he suffered agony as he saw and heard their evil actions. And so the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials and how to keep the wicked under punishment for the Day of Judgement, especially those who follow their filthy bodily lusts and despise God's authority. These false teachers are bold and arrogant, and show no respect for the glorious beings above; instead, they insult them. Even the angels, who are so much stronger and mightier than these false teachers, do not accuse them with insults in the presence of the Lord. But these people act by instinct, like wild animals born to be captured and killed; they attack with insults anything they do not understand. They will be destroyed like wild animals, and they will be paid with suffering for the suffering they have caused. Pleasure for them is to do anything in broad daylight that will satisfy their bodily appetites; they are a shame and a disgrace as they join you in your meals, all the while enjoying their deceitful ways! They want to look at nothing but immoral women; their appetite for sin is never satisfied. They lead weak people into a trap. Their hearts are trained to be greedy. They are under God's curse! They have left the straight path and have lost their way; they have followed the path taken by Balaam son of Beor, who loved the money he would get for doing wrong and was rebuked for his sin. His donkey spoke with a human voice and stopped the prophet's insane action. These people are like dried-up springs, like clouds blown along by a storm; God has reserved a place for them in the deepest darkness. They make proud and stupid statements, and use immoral bodily lusts to trap those who are just beginning to escape from among people who live in error. They promise them freedom while they themselves are slaves of destructive habits — for a person is a slave of anything that has conquered him. If people have escaped from the corrupting forces of the world through their knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and then are again caught and conquered by them, such people are in a worse state at the end than they were at the beginning. It would have been much better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than to know it and then turn away from the sacred command that was given them. What happened to them shows that the proverbs are true: “A dog goes back to what it has vomited” and “A pig that has been washed goes back to roll in the mud.”
2 Peter 2:1‭-‬22 GNB


This is hilarious. I hope your rant is over because I have news for you -IT'S ALL IMAGINARY AND DELUSIONS IN YOUR HEAD. NONE OF IT IS REAL AND THE SOONER YOU REALISE IT,THE BETTER FOR YOU.
So your God is gonna burn me and destroy me and destroy me and bind me in a bottomless pit forever and ever.....yeah,yeah.....bla...bla..black sheep.....
Okay...let's play a game and imagine your God(s) exist? How do you know the real God?
There are over 4000 gods created by mankind in an attempt to explain the mystery of the world. Which one is the real God? How do you know Christianity is the real religion? You might be wrong because there is a slight possibility that you are wrong. Suppose Islam or Buddha or Ogun is the true God and religion....?
IT MEANS YOU AND ME ARE GONNA BURN IN AN EVERLASTING UNQUENCHABLE FIRE..... grin Welcome!!!

Pushed me out of my limit? Lmao!! grin grin cheesy You christians sure love to flatter yourselves.

1. Nothing is inherently unstable. Quantum mechanics requires that if we have a pure vacuum with no particles in it, particle pairs poof into existence constantly then VERY rapidly recombine and annihilate one another before the energy required for them to exist can be missed. That way, they never have to pay back that energy deficit.

Now, what if nothing was everything there was? How could that become everything we see today. I mean, we're talking about a lot of particle, anti-particle pairs to get a Big Bang, and somehow we have to end up with that yielding more positive matter than antimatter. Why the disparity is not clear. It's one of the most active pursuits in Astrophysics today and there is a Noble prize or several of them out there for the lucky scientists who figure it out. What we can say with reasonable confidence is that if you total up all the stuff in the Observable Universe today, the matter, dark matter, energy, dark energy, and gravity, the sum is Zero. So nothing and everything are just two sides of the same coin.

We humans are not well equipped to think about nothing. Evolution as hunter gatherers on the African savannas led us to a "common sense" that believes strongly in cause and effect. You could say we are cause and effect machines, living computers designed to find "or invent" the cause of each effect that catches our attention. For early humanity sharing that savanna with some truly awe inspiring predators, assigning a cause to effects was a matter of survival. The humans who heard a rustling sound in the tall savanna grass and thought to themselves, "Lion, I better run." lived on to pass on their genes to a succeeding generation. The kind who thought, "It's probably nothing, or just the wind." were often right. But on the sad occasion when they were wrong and it was a hunting lion, they lost the ability to pass on their genes. So we ended up with brains that assume there is a cause for every effect.
There was no way on the Serengeti that we could have known about processes that are entirely stochastic, such as the decay of a radioactive isotope. We can't even see that happen today unless we are privy to some very sophisticated and expensive technology to assist us in "seeing". But today those who are scientifically literate generally have heard of one or more effects that appear to have no direct cause. There is a probability distribution that tells when the event is most likely to occur, but there is no direct cause. It just happens when it's ready. Nothing triggers it.
But even if we know all that, we still are stuck with brains determined to find a cause for every observed effect that we find interesting. Even the most primitive of humans appear to have believed in animism. They thought there was supernatural, spiritual force flowing through everything, animate or inanimate. So from the dawn of time forward, we've been inventing a supernatural prime mover to explain what causes all those things we cannot sufficiently explain with our own knowledge of how the world works. If the mountain explodes in a volcanic eruption, the supernatural prime mover (AKA god) did it. When asked what caused god, we tend to try to define that problem away.

Long story short, because you probably won't be able to follow up with the long one wink , We live in a universe where everything that comes into being must have a cause, except god. That is, of course, a special pleading fallacy

2. LMAO!! Didn't I just agree with you that its possible for God to be self existing? I don't think you even read my responses. You just jump to reply to them because of your dogma and intolerance to opposing views.
I asked you before and I'll ask you again: I've agreed that god can be self existing, so the question now is..... which god is it? Is it Allah? Yahweh? Buddha? Zeus perhaps?
Don't dodge this question o! I saw how you subtly cancelled it out of my previous post grin , dumbass.

All over YouTube , in blogs ( including African blogs ) , in citadels of learning , in churches and families , there is a noticeable movement , a sort of religious tremor that has shifted peoples minds from faith and fear to reason and courage. Let’s call it the modern age of reason and logic.

People are becoming more inquisitive about their faith and are appalled by the crookery and deceitfullness of church leaders. The cruelty of Christians to their own and to others has not gone unnoticed and many of us can now see the wood from the trees.

Christianity has not cured evil or saved man , in fact it has often times contributed to man’s pain. Many pray to Jesus and he does not answer , many hold onto the promises of Jesus but he does not fulfil them. Many call to Jesus but it appears he cannot hear them.

Jesus has been unable to save the marrriages of his followers ( same rate of divorce as the ‘unbeliever’ ) . Jesus has not returned hundred fold of lands ,cars , houses , brothers and sisters to all those who forsook all for him.

Many of Jesus followers are in mental institutions hearing voices but he does not heal them. Many of his followers beat themselves because of guilt and sin but Jesus does not deliver. How can he deliver when his adherents commit the most sins ?

Are your surprised why people are leaving Christianity ? Why did you leave Christianity ? Do you see yourself remaining a Christian in 2019?
Where are these people who are leaving Christianity? Only in Nairaland? I go out for evangelism consciously approaching people, especially the young men, hoping they'd turn me away saying they didn't believe in God or that there was no God. But, they all listen and at last give out their numbers for follow up.

Frobel, take a peak at Winners Chapel's services and see how the youths run out to surrender to Jesus.

I belong to a group which calls folks who had been preached to and reminds them of sunday services, never have i called one person who told me God does not exist, so where did you get this your assumption from?

Only in your mind.
