Christian Claims That Jesus Would Real Have Failed When Tested:

Not one christian could defend this claim that Jesus was historical when they failed to answer simple questions and back this claim with historical evidence instead of subjective opinions and self testimony.One last time I will ask these simple questions to test the historical existance of Jesus, someting if he existed the Christian followers should know to answer.Answer us this:What age did Jesus live to?What day was he born and in what year?What was his appearance bearded or clean shaven, short or tall?What was his actual historical name since no Jew was named Jesus, what was the historical character's name that you call Jesus?Was he stoned and hanged or was he crucified?Did this take place around passover?Who was the King in this characters era?Which King did he run away from towards Egypt and why?What was the name of his sect?Was the Widows Mite in the NT accounts of Jesus a King Herod or later Kings coin or was it a Jannaeus Alexanders 100BC coin?Did Lysanius and King Herod exist in the time of Jesus as recorded in the NT?What era did Salome the follower of Jesus and friend of Jesus live in?Who was she married to?If you can't answer these simple questions which some are in the NT and other info is through historical references and knowledge then you do not have a historical figure you just have a subjective belief in a character.For once I'd like to see Christians actually answer these simple questions to back their false claims, it should be simple if he's real, but since he's not you guys will never answer these questions without fumbling miserably.

Where Is Heaven Located?

I have wondered. where is the Heaven that we so much desired located? Outside Our Universe or an entire different galaxy or star?

The absence or presence of God does not represent hell or heaven. Heaven has precise location, density etc and so is hell. They are not just terms used to express an idea, they are real and tangible. However to start looking for them in the physical universe with its billions of galaxies is a waste of time because heaven and hell are not within the physical universe. Those who have lived according to the laws of God will finally get to heaven and those who have disobeyed will also get to Hell. If you want to experience heaven, then live acording to the laws of God.

Is Christianity A Slave Morality

I have watched with rapt attention how the so called Pastors have exploited the masses by means of preaching an Imaginary reward in Heaven instead of gearing them to face the hard challenges of life ( someone who ought to be out on the street, looking for his daily bread will prefer to stay in church for longer hours waiting for a miracle that will never come). How weak men have created an imaginary hope for themselves as an excuse for their failure with sayings like (My God will take my to the next level at the appointed time).I see this trend as a sort of slave morality on Mankind because it makes even the strongest of men to think like a weakling. Men should be motivated to promote their untapped power rather than turning them to dummies under the pretext of religion.

@ kola oloye, very true.@ poster, the bible says faith without works is dead. its not the pastors, its individual mentalities. some people are just plain lazy. i cant be looking for a job, for e.g, and say becos i have faith i wuld sit in my house and expect the job to walk in, without sending resumes and trying to meet people, improve myself to attract the kind of employer i want and such stuff. faith, WITHOUT works is very dead. where the faith factor comes in is God granting you unmerited, unbelievable favour in the eyes of would-be employers, u know, like that.i always say to people that we cannot spend money in heaven, money is meant to be spent on earth. and God loves to give good things to his children, but you cant say, "ah, by faith i would make millions this year", and sit on your butt in your house sleeping all day and praying in tongues and the millions go just fill your freezer, u get the picture

Bribery In The Bible ?!

Can someone read this verse to clearify if it is true ? .MATTEW 5 vs 25 - 26.

big father:I dont think its talkng about bribery. "Farthing" is an old english word for penny. I think it is figurative for punishment i.e. such a person will not be released until they have served their full jail term. But literarilly, it could mean bail.P.S. please endeavour to copy/paste the scriptures you quote for convenience. Thanks. 25"Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. 26I tell you the truth, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.

Adultery

What's Adultery? And what are the causes of adultery!

ADULTERY Is a criminal connection between persons who are engaged, one or both, to keep themselves wholly to others; and thus it exceeds the guilt of fornication, which is the same intercourse between unmarried persons. As the highest sin of its kind, and son including all other sins of the flesh, it is forbidden in the seventh commandment. Where polygamy was allowed, as among the ancient Jews, illicit intercourse between a married man and a woman who was married, nor betrothed, constituted not adultery, but fornication. Fornication may be, in some sense, covered by a subsequent marriage of the parties; but adultery cannot be so healed. Hence God often compares himself to a husband jealous of his honor, Jer 31:32; and hence the forsaking of the true God is compared to fornication and adultery of the vilest kind, Jer 3:9; Eze 23:36-49. By the Law of Moses, both the man and the woman who had committed adultery were punished with death, Le 20:10; 21:9; Joh 8:5. A woman suspected of this crime might, in order to clear herself, drink the "water of jealousy," as prescribed in Nu 5:1-31.

Deaconess - What Qualify A Woman As One?

What are the qualities a woman must have to be a deaconess in a church?Plsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

2 TIMOTHY 2:11It states a woman should be silent in Church;"Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection"2 TIMOTHY 2:11"But i suffer not a woman, nor to usurp authority over the man but must be SILENT Corinthians 14:34Let your women keep silent in Churches, for they are not permitted to speak, but they are to be submissive as the law says" Corinthians 14;35"And if they want to learn something, let them ask their husbands at home, for it is shameful for women to speak in churches" Now what would make a woman speak in church talkless of her becoming a so called pastoress or deacon when the "god almighty jehovah" has commanded that women should shut up in churches because it is very very shameful to speak in churches How can i ever respect a so called female pastor whatsoever when the bible has said that she has to be submissive to a man to shut up and learn from him.All these hypocritical churches that have women as pastors and those clowns that worshipped Bimbo Odukoya are all going to Hell because they have defiled the words of god And when i say the bible is a very very daft and foolish book, christian apologists will be angry. No other book would encourage such blatant chauvinistic thinking and subjugation of women, yet women are the densest fanatics of this stupid book called the bible!What a freaking Mind job!

Why Quote From The Bible Even Though You Believe It's Corrupted?

First off, I'm not getting into a whole debate on verses in the Qu'ran which claim that the Bible is supposedly corrupted. As a Christian I personally believe it to be the Word of God, and I understand Muslims don't, which is fine and I respect this fact.However, if this is the case, then why do Muslims tend to quote from the Bible to try and show that Islam and Muhammad are mentioned? How can Muslims accept (for example) Isaiah 42 and not Isaiah 53? Or the Gospels proclaiming that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh (John 8:58-59) and yet claim that Jesus mentioned the coming of Muhammad in the Gospel of John (John 1:19-21, John 16:8-11). Surely, if Muslims believe that the Bible is corrupted then they shouldn't use any of it in direction to their faith, regardless of what it indicates? You either accept it all or you don't, you can't really pick and choose if you understand what I mean? IF these verses do speak of Muhammad then why can Muslims so easily accept these, and not the rest of the Bible? Anyhow, if this could be explained to me then that would be greatly appreciated. All I'm trying to do is understand Islam a little bit more. Thank you and Peace,By a beloved Sister.

Frosbell, the simple reason is that if muslims quote the Qur'an to you to prove their point you can easily claim that you dont beleive in it but if we quote your bible to you in support of our arguement, you will be forced to accept. The bible contains so many interpolatios and alterations (Jeremiah 8: but fortunately muslims have the Qur'an which is the criterion for distinguishing truth from falsehood. see Qur'an 25:1 by the way you also quote the Qur'an in support of your arguement , do you beleive in it?

I Hold A Deep Grudge Against Jesus

Here are some of the views that support my assertion:1) He introduced the concept of hell, a particularly vile place for everlasting punishment.2) Had particularly obnoxious family values - calling of people to hate their family members and abandon their families3) He called on people to make no plans for tomorrow.4) He call for people to not self-defend themself against aggressors, but instead give to aggressors5) He called on people to self-mutilate to avoid sinning, thus showing that he did not know how "sinning" originate. He should have called on people to cut off their heads instead since sinning starts as a thought in the brain.6) He was particularly opposed to his followers fraternising with non-Jews, describing one such as a dog.7) He called on his enemies to be brought forth and slain before him.8-) He said " I did not come to bring peace BUT a sword"9) He was particularly uncharitable to women facing divorce from their men, describing them as commiting adultery and putting a bar against other men from marrying such women.10) Was particularly materialistic, prefering that an expensive perfum be used on him, rather having it sold and the money given to the poor.And this is the view one get from reading the new testament. I have not even mentioned the actions of Jesus in the old testament.Does anyone who espouses such vile views deserve to be respected and renerated?

What Has Your Church Done For Nigeria ?

Let us see which church is contributing or exploiting our society, many churches , G.O's, have been accused of exploiting our people, none of them ever accepted that fact, Now the only way to measure what they have done is to check and see if they have in any way contributed any positive resources to our society ,such as , Building Orphanage homes, free medical centers, free educational centers Etc.If You know that your church has made any concrete positive contribution to the Nigerian society, Simply mention the name of your church and what they have contributed, Any church that is not mentioned will be listed as one of the 419 churches that are only out there to exploit our people.

And that makes sense right? We are supposed to start judging CHURCHES by physical things they contribute to the community? What about the spiritual things?So your Church pastors spend your physical cash on expensive rides houses planes more business churches etc and all you get is spirituality which is equalled to nothing as far as am concerned.

The Nature Of Islam

For those of you who do not know the origin of islam - read the genesis 16 islam is ishmael the son of the maid servant of abraham. If you read verse 12 it says that ishmael will be a wild man, his hand shall be on everyone and everyones hand shall be on him- meaning he will be a trouble maker,he will always the fighting and be fought - look all around the world- is it not islam causing trouble? And is it not islam that is being fought? According to the bible ishmael which is islam is wild and troublesome and so is islam today.

Rubbish! You're making rubbish claims that will never stick no matter how much you try. And moreover, the nature of islam is "FASCISM". It is a fascist religion running on ancient and fossilized ideologies. The wet dream of islam is to enslave all mankind by infecting and killing it with it's dead and fossilized dogma. But it won't happen and islam will eventually die in it's own great delusions.

Why Do God Listens To Our Cry?

The Bible is specific about events that will lead directly to the return of Jesus Christ. Once you know the biblical identities of modern nations, current events and the silly things people do. All fit together into prophecy like pieces of a puzzle.We are warned about these things in the scripture a but have refused to trust in the Almighty and to live by His rules and not our own. It seems that people never turn to the Almighty until they are in deep trouble a I wonder why He even listens to our cries, since we never listens to His warnings. I believe that we are in for some horrible times in the near future and we will all be crying out to Hima some people do some rotten things to make ends meet and still hold on to it.I am afraid that our religion is an inch deep and a mile wide. This will certainly be witness against us when those days come.[b][/b]

well lately i think my cries dont work anymore cos He never seems to answer my cries. so i just laugh!!!and its working just fine.

You Cannot Become Like God Without A Proper Understanding Of His Revealed Self!

[center] "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." John 17:3[/center]The Bible tells us that we were made in the image of God 'Gen 1:27'. What is God like as He has revealed himself? Since the Father is the only true God, it is my aim to bring out what I have understood about Him, to help others in a true fellowship with the Father & His Son.This is a study not a debate! Therefore I welcome your questions on this matter whether you don't understand something posted here, or simply disagree with any point here.[center]Only the holy scriptures will be used in this study![/center]

Dealing With Your Enemies

According to Machiavelli, the best way to treat your enemies is to destroy them completely, when he said: "For it must be noted, that men must either be caressed or else annihilated; they will revenge themselves for small injuries, but cannot do so for great ones; the injury therefore that we do to a man must be such that we need not fear his revenge." But we are enjoined by our Christian/religious faith to treat our enemies kindlyHow best do you think one should Deal With his/her Enemies

Good Friday: Thinking Of Jesus

I've been thinking of Jesus since I woke up today. His entry into Jerusalem, His outburst at those using the temple as a market place, the conspiracy to arrest Him, the trumped up charges against Him by the religious establishment of the day, transfer to the Romans, interrogation by Pontius Pilate, His being sentenced to death by crucifixion, the soldiers mocking Him while torturing Him, carrying the cross to Golgotha, being nailed to the cross, being abused and insulted, and finally dying for mankind.Jesus was killed by the religious establishment of the day in conjunction with their Roman masters because of His belief and His speech. Today, in many parts of the world, we still do not have freedom of speech and the freedom to practice whatever religion one believes in. Even after 2,000 years?Today is Good Friday, and I remember a Man who was killed for His belief and His speech. "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do."Wishing all Christians a solemn Good Friday!

Deluded liar.Mary went to his tomb this morning being Sunday but couldnt find him there, he has risen.He died on Friday and rose on Sunday morning NOT fulfilling the three days and three nights prophecy.

I Want To Become An Atheist

I am intrested in becoming an Atheist, i am tired of people telling me things i can not verify or question, exploiting me in the name of God, Telling me that i will go to hell if i dont believe them, and that i will go to heaven and stay in peace forever if i believed, only for me to believe and see that i am following man like a fool , making him powerfulThe worst is that they tell me that i am already perished and i need to be part of them in other to be saved, Giving me empty promises that never come to pass, creating unneccesary hope for me, telling me about , war, subjection, mystry, and things that can not be satisfactorily explained, puting guilt and comfusion in me , after believing them, i go and see that i am better than people who had earlier condemmed me. i was told Atheism is all about free thinking, and i love to be part of it, who can put me through,

@Banomfor the sake of clarification what religion did you practise before you decided to become an atheist. How deep were you in this faith, if you practised christianity i might be able to tell you a thing or two. the problem might not be the religion it might be the way it was presented to you. I agree with you that a lot of churches preach and say unrealistic things but this is purely becos most of them don't understand Christ's true gospel. The religion as been abused and bastardized over the last 2000 years hence the complications. i honestly think you should keep your mind open and try and understand the real true gospel of christ, you would be shocked that it is so different from what most pastors tell you.

Todays Bible Text And Commentary

You offspring of vipers, who has intimated to you to flee from the coming wrath?aMatt. 3:7.Among those coming to see John the Baptist were self- righteous Jewish religious leaders who felt no need to repent. They looked down on the common people who were getting baptized in symbol of repentance. Fearlessly, John exposed those hypocritical leaders, telling them to aproduce fruit that befits repentance.a (Matt. 3: In todayas text, John was not speaking of a physical flight. He was warning of a coming judgment, a day of wrath; and he put the religious leaders on notice that if they were to escape during that day, they would need to produce fruit that proved their repentance. Later, Jesus fearlessly denounced the religious leadersatheir murderous attitude showed that their real father was the Devil. (John 8:44) Strengthening Johnas earlier warning, Jesus called them aoffspring of vipersa and asked: aHow are you to flee from the judgment of Gehenna?

And they did not yield.

Is Religion The Root Of All Evil?

Religion gave us the idea that there was evil/sin. Religion promoted this idea in the wars years before.And Religion is still caging millions with the fear of evil.Do you think Religion is the root of all evil?

Religion is not the root of all evil, but an instrument of the root of evil just like money is also an instrument of the same root. The root of all evil exists within man himself, and not outside of him.Religion can be used to take the soul of a man up or bring it down into the abyss. It all depends on how it is applied and for what purpose. If we are talking about the Abrahamic faiths like christianity and islam, for example, these two faiths were created to lock the soul of man in a spiritual prison by the priesthoods of these faiths for the express purpose of control and world domination by the ruling elites. And they are considered as evil for this nefarious reason, because they seek to dis-empower man to keep him in a controlled state of existence rather than empower him to set him free.babaearly:

Reasons Why Muslims Detest Christians' Months/days

Hello everyoneThis is clear proof to let every reader of this thread, either christian, muslim, which ever know that the months, days we follow today are the names of some Roman gods. I am sure it is unbiblical and unislamic too. but the question is why do christians follow these days/months. Muslim created theirs because of the etymology of these so called Roman gods. The etymologies shall be posted in the next thread.

The Origin of the Names of the Days1. SUNDAY. - It was so-called because it was anciently dedicated to the worship of the SUN.2. MONDAY. - Means literally, the day of the Moon.3. TUESDAY. - Was dedicated to Tuisco, the Mars of our Saxon Ancestors, the deity or god that presided over wars, combats, strife and litigation.4. WEDNESDAY. - It's so-called from Wodin or Odin, a deity or chief among ancient nations of Northern Europe.5. THURSDAY. - It is named after Thor, the old Teutonic god of Thunder.6. FRIDAY. - Is named from Frea or Friga, a goddess of the old Saxon mythology.7. SATURDAY. - Means simply Saturn's day, the name being derived from the deity of that name.

LOL! If ur blackberry and ur bible fall inside a bowl of water, Which one are u gonna remove first? Be sincere oooo

"But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." - Matthew 4:"And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." - 2 Timothy 3:15-17"Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away." - Luke 21:33, (Mark 13:31, Matthew 24:35).-----The true Gospel of GOD Most High-"Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die"(Ezekiel 18:4); "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23);"As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live:" (Ezekiel 33:11);"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23);"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." (i.e., The Lord Jesus Christ, The SON of GOD (Acts 4:12);"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10);"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (Romans 10:17).

If You Are To Ask A Question About Offering And Tithe What Will It Be?

Christians today talk about Offering and Tithe with all seriousness and yet many do not understand what it is all about. Should you be asked to ask any question ranging from the differences between Tithe and Offering to the benefit of each or both - what question will you ask?

The tithe mongers will soon descend on this thread gun blazing to defend this SCAM, I wonder why they never showed us any evidence of Jesus or Apostle Paul paying (they were not farmers or owned any livestock)or receiving this tithe since neither of them came from the tribe of Levi.They claim Pastors of the "Modern Church of Nigeria ltd/PLC" can collect tithes because they are the "modern day Levites", I wonder if they carry those tithes to Jerusalem or actually have "storehouses" in those Churches to hold the "harvest" for the poor, widow, orphan, stranger, etc.They are quick to quote (out of context of course) "you will always have the poor with you" which begs the question of whether they are about to give their lives for their congregation/church as Jesus Christ did for MANKIND.Beloved, we have to learn to hit the MUTE button anytime they regurgitate the same filth over and over again.

Chucrh Or C.r.k Lecture Hall

What about it!? Churches where it seems like they are not uniform in their doctrines.Some churches see it as no big deal for women to cover their hair. "it's not and issue you see, " was the answer i got when i asked a very elder of the church and there are some with their hair covered and others not. Is 1 cor 11 addressing the christianity issue or the ppl (corinthians)?, or maybe it's just how i got the understanding of the passage.Better still anyone out there knows another passage which makes void that (1 cor 11) doctrine void.I was also almost blinded by some of the women out there (was not out there to see them anyway but would not deny i was helpless but for my eyes to come in contact with some cos they are everywhere) who some among them are "OUR MOTHERS" puting on cloths like, GOD HELP THEM!What's your opinion about thses?

@ allno confusion!Get it AKO that the head here is the head as in with the hair.only if u say it's old news and putaside that part of the bible.Check numbers 6:18,19 and compare the useof head there.", shall shave the head of his, the hair of the head, "There,the Nazarite is asked to "shave the head"u won't translate that to mean cut off his head will u?and the dressing??NO COMMENT?

20 Easy Questions For Christians

I have been accused to asking too hard questions - questions that Christian find hard to answer. Now I want to change the tone and ask relatively easier questions. Here we go:1) How many hot dinners did Jesus have in his entire life of earth?2) To the nearest centimeter, what was Jesus height?3) To the nearest centimeter, what was the length of Jesus's penis erect? What was its circumference?4) Who was the oldest of Jesus apostles?5) On which day of the week did Paul convert to Christianity on the road to Damascus?6) On the day that Jesus rose into heaven, exactly how many people believed he was the son of God?7) On which day of the week, year and hour is Jesus going to come back?8.) How many stars are there in the universe?9) How many grains of sand are there on the planet?10) How many living species are there on earth?11) To the nearest day, how many days in total was Jesus on the planet earth?12) At what speed did Jesus ascend into heaven?13) How many people attended the party where Jesus turned water into wine? How many gallons of wine did he make?14) What was Jesus favourite meal?15) To the nearest person, how many people were there on the planet on January 1 2009?16) To the nearest person, how many people did Moses kill in the bible?17) To the nearest person, how many concubines did Abraham have?18) On how many occasions did Jesus experience wetdreams, that is, the natural emission of semen?19) Was Jesus sexually fertile?20) Who was Joseph's (Mary's husband, and Jesus's father) father?

Easter In Nigeria

Hello, my friends. As we enter what some would certainly call the holiest of all seasons, allow me to ask:How is Easter celebrated in Nigeria? Certainly, the religious aspect is largely similar to other places, but what about traditions, both familial and cultural?No doubt many of you will have interesting, colourful stories to share!

The truth is that those so-called wise and prudent theologians know absolutely nothing about the so-called resurrection simply because it never happened. Easter, or the celebration of the resurrection, is merely a tradition, a tradition that you have been taught from childhood, and coming into maturity you have accepted it because that is what you were taught. That is what you read bout. That is what your parents made you observed every Easter Sunday. Thus, you continued to go along with it and before you knew it, you had carelessly assumed what you now believe without question or proof. Easter is the feast of feasts celebrated in honor of the risen Christ. You have even reached the point where you will defend vigorously and emotionally your belief, a belief that can lead you straight to hell. It has become human nature to flow with the stream, and to go along with the crowd, to believe and perform like those around you. And, even when you stumble on the truth, you will not believe because like the majority of the people, you stubbornly refuse to believe what you are unwilling to believe. There is an old saying that says: He who is convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.

Robbers Rob Redeemed Members During Sunday Service

LAGOSa AN EIGHT man robbery gang, including a lady, yesterday invaded a Redeemed Christian Church of God, The Hope Centre, Amuwo Odofin, in the Mile 2 area of Lagos State. The gun-wielding robbers, who came to the church at about 8.25a.m. in motorcycles, succeeded in robbing the early morning worshippers of money, telephone sets and jewelries. A source told newsmen: aThey came in as if for early morning worship. But as soon as they gained entrance into the church they ordered all the worshippers to lie face down and hand in their money, phones and jewelries.a Contacted, the Lagos police spokesman, Mr. Frank Mba, a Superintendent of Police, confirmed the incident. Mba said that as soon as they arrived, a distress call came to the Festac Town Police Station, which sent its men, led by the DPO, ASP Usman, to the church immediately, stressing that the suspected robbers unfortunately left before the police got there. He said: aOur men recovered some items belonging to the suspects, which fell off from them. The items will help the police to trail them. aThey collected about 30 handsets and various sums of money from worshippers they met in the church. We use this medium to advise religious groups, particularly the church, to beware of fake members.a SOURCE - Vanguard Newspapers 22/11/2010 - Pg 13

Why I Don't Belong To Any Denomination (new Age Churches)

It wasnat the valley of death, we were walking in,It was the valley of confusion for many years.Different religions different beliefs Undermining my culture, Looking down upon my traditionMaking fun of my language.If I may ask of what Benefits has these modern churches brought to us here in Nigeria if not confussion and hatered to fellow brothers and Sisters.condenming what has been attached to our colour as a symbol. I deeply believe in God Almighty, have respect on Christ Jesus teaching, but still find it difficult to follow any church or pastor and will never. The Holy Bible is a very great philosophic book that do inspires me much, but hate when people turns it up side down to match to their own selfish believe. The way people preaches about Heaven and Hell as if one of their relatives has been there before and come back to say his/her experience. I bow for them. Life should be an exciting adventure.

@davidlanhow can my "preamble"be wrong when you picked out a small phrase or couple of words out of a whole comment overblown out of proportion so as to back up your comments?even though the bible says so,and like i said im not bible expert,but the realistic fact here is that if your pastor was openly gay or was accused and found to be a pedophile,im sure his congregation will be halfed by the very next service, so while the bible might propound that mortal men/women should not be a focus in religion/religious practise,realistically in nigeria and abroad,pastors are always made the focus by most congregations and they even have an influence on major decisions taken concerning the church

while i totally agree with the child witches documentary irrespective of channel 4's ulterior motives,and i agree with the child marriage programme too seeing as the long term effect will end up enlightening nigerians both home and abroad and also foreigners on the problems these children faceand where they need help, BUT with reservations, we know there is a crisis concerning child marriages in nigeria,but what are they(channel4)doing to sensitize the british public about the high level of underage pregnancy in britain?secondly a new report was just revealed about britain's children being the highest consumers of cocaine in the whole of europe, to me that doesnt put channel 4 (a british media outlet)on any moral pedestal to criticize others on something similar, and that is not even mentioning the number of paedophiles who are of british descent,saw a documentary of britain's youngest mother last year and she was 12 years old with the father being a year older

What Is The Purpose Of Life According To Atheism?

I get various answers, basically, it's whatever you want it to be? So say the purpose of life is to acquire fame and wealth, what's gonna happen to your fame and wealth once you're in your grave? You're not gonna be benefiting from it no more, right?That's why am a believer in God, we pray and remember God every single day, and we are encouraged to remember death so that we are not OBSESSED with this life, because whatever material things we earn here, they'll be of no use to us in the grave. Whatever good we do here will benefit us in Heaven, if we get there.So what is the true purpose of life according to Atheism then?

I will like you to shed more light on this claim. . .some people believe that if you are good in this present life you will re-incarnate as a better person in the next life. . some believe that if you are bad you might even come out as an animal in the next life. . . do you believe that the Dai Lama is a re-incanation of previous buddist deities or have you ever meet a dog or cat that told you he/she was a human in the previous life?. . . The above is not my idea of re-incarnation. . . . . there is no basis or proof that supports the above, thats just a ridiculous dogmatic belief.My idea of re-incarnation is of cases where people die and come back in the form of another person. They however retain ALL knowledge of their previous life, including language, family, origin and events in that life.

To Shun Ungodly Acts

To Shun Ungodly ActsOnce a man saw God busy doing his work. He asked God the obvious question, "What are you doing?" "I am making a copy, a duplicate of myself, a man," he replied. Then God asked, "What do you folks do down there?". The man replied, "We are trying to shape God into our own image."This is the tragedy of our times. We find it easy to become 'un-god like' and so begin to de-construct God.Millions are spent on constructing brick and mortar edifices to house God, only to be used for ungodly acts. Our places of worship have all become centers of vice where bigotry, lust and the promotion of wars and political agendas are commonplace. Humans were evolved by Nature as a species, with a mind of their own, to chose their Way of life, to become God- like or un-God like. As a result, we have chosen to disheartened God to no end. This global boon of mental power is proving to be a powerful bane and turning out to be the undoing of God himself.God would have desired us to lead a life of material detachment. But we have completely disconnected ourselves from God instead. We are plundering the earth for our unsustainable needs and destroying our soul over ego and pride. Doing good is being God-like. But we have become un-God-like with the many wrong choices we have made. We must remember that God is omnipresent. He resides in everththing, in all of us, and his most preferred abode is a kind and compassionate heart.

God is a figment of weak and over active imaginations. He does not exist, only in the mind of delude people You do not need to beleive in a pretend God to have a compassionate heart. Just free your mind and treat people like you yourself would like to be treated

The First Suicide Bomber Is In The Bible!

His name is called SAMSON!!!!!! All hard-line bible thumpers should emulate him!!!!!

The thought came to me after the news of the Nigerian Mutallab attempted bombing of an airline. The aim of the post is to show that there is nothing new under the sun. The fact that Samson did not use an explosive device is immaterial. Bible thumpers will tell you their bible heros only did good stuff. Evil has existed since biblical times. Infact the evil in those days will make what we have now look like a tea party. Read Deut: 13so evil has existed for long but you're here shouting perhaps because you feel all your ancestors were lily white saints who never did any evil?

The aim of the post is to show that there is nothing new under the sun. The fact that Samson did not use an explosive device is immaterial. Bible thumpers will tell you their bible heros only did good stuff. Evil has existed since biblical times. Infact the evil in those days will make what we have now look like a tea party. Read Deut: 13so evil has existed for long but you're here shouting perhaps because you feel all your ancestors were lily white saints who never did any evil?

Where Do Black People Come From According To Christianity ?

Adam and Eve were arabs, so how did we end up with black people, chinese, indians ?

blackmen are oligos, we fell from the sky. at least that is the legend of benin and yoruba kingdoms.

What Do You Think The Devil Would Do: In The Circumstances

He would make people believe that he does not exist, He would make the same people who do not believe in his existence to also believe in Psychis and New Age Movement, He would find ways to make man please himself at his detriment, He would create cults that make it a death penalty for anyone to leave them, He would make man think he is nothing more than an animal, He would make man believe in luck but not in God, ....He would try to dominate the world, He would make evil people look like good people,

The human created god in the bible is most definitely not my creator.You can have him as yours,if you so desire.But my "quarrel" is actually directed at the retarded, ancient,middle eastern desert peasants who wrote all the craps in the bible.May kelly: how do you mean? or are you quarrelling with your creator, i mean are you in good terms with your creator?

Does Your Faith Burden You?

How far would your go for your faith?A court in Ghana has charged a father of neglect, after he refused to allow his son to receive a blood transfusion, which might have saved his life. The man has pleaded not guilty to charges of negligence, arguing that his faith prohibits blood transfusions.In a separate development, the leader of the Anglican church in Nigeria,Bishop Peter Akinola, has asked the country's many Christian polygamists to give up their extra wives, as the issue could "make a mockery" of the church. Until now converts to Christianity have been allowed to keep their polygamous relationships. How much would you sacrifice for your faith?Are the beliefs of your faith non-negotiable? Or do you feel your faith give you values to aim for but which you struggle to meet all the time? Should there be a limit to how much faith dictates your lifestyle?

well im not very versed in these things especially as i know all you gys in the religious section are einsteins but like it says in the bible the road to salvation is rough so i think if your faith doesnt burden you in an increasingly secular world,then something must be going wrong somewhere,i cant judge the man fom ghana rightly or wrongly but being a christian,i dont know what the man must have felt or seen besides who knows GOD's designs in any situation.if you believe you are sacrificing your reason and intellect for religion then im guessing you r a scientist/atheist

A Religious Man Is Not A Free Man

This is my thesis and I have evidence to back it up. First just look to the word religion and where it comes from. Religion comes from the verb "religo" in Latin and it means to be bound to something. And we all know that a bond limits a person's liberty. Being religious means having a strict bond with your God. A religious man can never take the liberty of doubting the operating of this god as he demands a blind trust from him. Just take Christianity, Islam or Judaism for example: their "guiding rules" are majorly based on prohibitionism as to condition and control the life of a man depriving him of his total autonomy. Also this prohibitionism can somehow subject the believer to many risks. Example: Jehovah Witness: they can't have a blood transfusion or have any sorts of operation. So why should I have to bound myself to something that will limit my liberty in taking decisions that also concern my life?

Didn't god say help yourself first then he shall help you?I see you are trying to quote the scriptures, but your quote was wrong. I guess the words just came out just for you to have a little backup for your point, but I would rather advice you to get the scriptures and read it with the fullest of understanding instead of jumping into conclusions.michelin89:You are convinced that he is always right and not that he has prove that to you. if he has them please give me an example of his "absolute and indubitably righteousness"If you can rewind back the clock of time, you will definite be convinced of his pure righteousness, because I don't think you have the valued time to go through the Bible.

Why Do Many Insist People Convert When They Marry?

I seen many catholic insist the man coverts to marry .I seen same in Islam .I seen it in pentacostal (ie become born again).In short I seen it in many religions.Why do people do this?Surely this is a wrong way of getting someone to understand the faith.How will someone view that religion if they are made to convert before they marry.Surely pushing someone to join a religion will only make the person drift further away after the wedding.To me I think it will best to wait till after the wedding and slowly ask the person to come once in a while to the church and who knows they might like it.But pushing someone to convert for wedding ,seems the wrong approach .

Well if the hassle too much just convert.After wedding if you like go the church ,if not then nah she sow the seed .

There Is Only One Religion - Humanity!

I have a religion. . .my communication with my creator using the many encounters of my daily life as the temple of truth. Every person I come in contact with is a mediary of exchange. In that exchange I'm sharing what is beautiful and noble in the depth of my soul, per chance the other person would respond with a more beautiful and radiantly divine blossom.Anything else outside of that is hatred camouflaged as religion and falsely claimed as the voice of God.

This the true religion. It takes a lot of searching to get this far, but Humanism is the future.

If I Were The Devil

If I were the Devil, I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world; I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man's effort, instead of God's blessings; I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, insteadof the other way around; I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for their staterevenue; I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership; I would make it legal to take the life of unborn babies; I would make it socially acceptable to take one's own life, and inventmachines to make it convenient; I would cheapen human life as much as possible so that the life ofanimals are valued more that human beings; I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was grounds for a law suit; I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I would get sports heroes to advertise them; I would get control of the media, so that every night I could pollutethe mind of every family member for my agenda; I would attack the family, the backbone of any nation. I would make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable. If thefamily crumbles, so does the nation; I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movie screens, and I would call it art; I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted and marveled; I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined by a few who call themselves authorities and refer to their agenda aspolitically correct; I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date,and the Bible is for the naive; I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional; I guess I would leave things pretty much the way they are.

@drusillaU are correct, they are lots of thns the devil have been able to do.He has also being able to bring out different religion to confused mankindhe has also makes evil look good and good look evil.

Why Do People Tell Lies?

Both the Christianity and the Islamic religions forbids telling lies,our traditional religion too frawned at it to such an extent that various penalities are put in place to check the act. To then say that people don't tell lies because of these penalities or because of the position of religions is like validating falsehood,as man is always in the habit of telling lies when need arises, Then why do people tell lies and how do u feel when u discovered that someone you trusted so much had lied to you?

This is the book the has spell bounded our people so you have too use it to break that spell of ignorance. If I had quoted from any other book you would of pull your shutters up and would be unreachable. Just like a doctor would treat a patient with a vaccines (a little bit of the same disease) to cure a disease. You have to inject a bit of the vaccine of religion to enable the patient to start to reason soundly again.Believe deadens the mind and stop one from reasoning soundly. To treat the patient you will have to use the vaccine of religion to treat and cure them.Do you overstand?Actually, I reseach and study the bible more now that when I was a church going, bible bashing, babbling in tougue christians. I also read other scriptures which have spell bounded our people including the Koran or your Torah. This is the work of a scientist to follow and reseach the facts. Are you ok with that, do you overstand?

Why Do Christians Celebrate Birthdays?

Is birthday keeping a good thing in Christianity? did Christ tell us to celebrate our "date of birth" and his also?lets look at the Birthday occurences in the Bible and how they turned out.The first account is in Genesis. Pharaoh, the Egyptian king, celebrated his birthday by executing his chief baker (Gen. 40:1-23). God gave Joseph special understanding of a dream by Pharaohas butler and baker, that the baker would lose his life three days after Joseph interpreted the dream. Joseph understood that Pharaoh would use this occasionahis own birthday partyato put his baker to death. As the dream had foretold, the baker was hung at the party.In the second account, the New Testament figure Herod the tetrarch reluctantly ordered the beheading of John the Baptist (Matt. 14:3-11). Notice verse six: aBut when Herodas birthday was keptaa During the dancing and merry-making at his birthday party, Herod got carried away and eventually made a promise that he did not want to keep. As a result, a great servant of God lost his life.so really what do Christians mean when they celebrate birthdays?

Birthday commemoration is not sinful. Psalm 90:12 says teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom. It reminds us of God's presence in our lives. You can choose to celebrate it or otherwise. The choice is yours.

Is Atheism A Belief Or Is It Truly Religion?

Most religions believe in the existence of a God. Most atheists believe there exists no god. SoIs atheism a belief in itself?If so what do atheists believe? Or Is atheism actually a religion?We all know what the world's religions believe in. But what are atheist's beliefs regarding existence and can we take (hopefully from the posts below) the (or) a body of atheist opinion and thought and use it as a basis of another religion?

And Aquinas philosophical proofs you just stated, do you really want me to copy and paste rebuttals from the internet?A 'rebuttal' does NOT constitute a proof for the non-existence of God. It is a cheap escape route.Please, I am waiting for your own proof for the non-existence of God.

Do Miracles Happen Today?

We all know that for a healthy walk with God and a balanced attitude toward miracles, we should avoid setting our expectations below what God opens up to us, and we should also avoid presuming that God has to do miracles on demand if we feel strongly enough about it. True faith is confidence that God can do anything he chooses, and willingness to accept whatever he chooses.But with the Miracles shown on every TV stations, Magazines and the rest, with lots of them happening so fast, one will not help but ask if Miracle really happen today!

How Much Of Our African Culture Should We Give Up For Christianity?

Clearly, some of our traditions have pagan origins and as such should be eschewed. What about the aspects of our culture that seem right, but yet have pagan origin?

When God asked us to honour our parents, he didn't outline a particular way to do so.He didn't say bow to your parents or prostrate.He said honour, so which ever way u honour, honour.I am Bini and we kneel to show honour to our elders. My friend is igbo, they don't kneel, my grandmother looked at her with an evil eye when the girl greeted her without kneeling. Does this mean that my friend was wrong? No.When we're done eating, we greet everyone in the house. I greeted my yoruba aunty and she looked at me with shock. Does that mean that I am wrong? No.I hope that explains it.LOLOLOL. Imhotep, I'm sure you can figure out why I'm laughing especially when you read JeSoul's post.Lol. Wonders shall never cease.JeSoul, it's nothing bad, I promise. It's just funny.

Covering Of Hair For Christain Women, Is It Compulsory?

Hello guys. I want to get your opinion about this issue that has been on ground for a long time. If You go to some Churches today,You will see that most of the Women don't cover thier Hair during Worship or when going to Church service. I have seen some Pastors preached against it. I want to know, is it a compulsory thing for Women to cover thier Hair?

@ backslider i think u should read that passage of scripture again. It clearly says the woman's hair is the covering for her head. It also says: if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him. Thus a woman doesn't need to cover her hair with a scarf and a man's hair shouldn't be worn long.

What Is Holy Spirit And What Is The Holy Ghost?

Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all it's righteousness and all this things will be added unto you Mathew 6:33. The Kingdom of God is love and he who seek him most do that in spirit and in truth. By sharing love, peace and coming together to serve the Lord God Almighty. Every religion talks about the issue of creation and the existence of God and man. I want to observe that we are all human beings but the level of our religious believe is determine by our level of human and God perception. How did man come into existence and who is God is what every religion is talking about but in different context.I am not a fanatic but I am very proud and comfortable with my religious believe which is the best and the most popular in the World. For the Bible says that we are save by grace through Jesus Christ. And what love is greater than the love of God who gave his life to save us.I believe in God and the TRINITY but can some body please explain the difference between Holy spirit and Holy ghost?

no difference btw ghost & spirits

Fast, Pray And Give In The Holy Month Of Ramadahan

Asalam Alaykum Wa Rahmatullah Wa BarakathuMay the peace and blessing of Allah guide all my fellow naira Landers and may Allah in is infinite mercyas guide and protect us form Shay tan (the cursed one) and his disciples.Brothers and Sisters in Islam the holy month or Ramadan is now at our door steps, Insha Allah we shall commence fasting later this week depends when the new moon is sighted but in all I implore all our Muslim brothers and sisters to be ready and steadfast in fasting, prayers and alms giving because these are the three most significant deeds that come with Ramadan.Let us not forget to watch our tongue, ways and deeds so as not to make our fast null and void and least we forget lets ensure that we read the Quran form the first surah to the last to enjoy the full benefit of Ramadan. I leave my fellow naira Landers with these verse form the holy Quran;Sura Al-Isra Ch: 17 Ver: 111aAnd say: aAll the praises and thanks be to Allah, who has not begotten a son (or offspring), and who has no partner in (His) dominion, nor he is low to have a Wali (helper, protector or supporter), and magnify Him with all magnificence, [Allahu-Akbar (Allah is the most Great)].a
