An 11-year-old girl died after her parents prayed for healing rather than seek medical help for a treatable form of diabetes This is exactely what hapen to Nigeria. Nigeria is dying and christians are praying for the healing of Nigeria rather than seek to help themselves and their country. Nigerians hold on to religion, like a crutch because they can't make it any other way. With religion they stop being responsible for their own actions and blame someone else like God when it's something they like and the Devil when it's something they don't like. |

Tudor, you're getting too heated up, dramatic, insulting. RELAX.
Because there's such a thing as spiritual growth. If all Christians were on the same level spiritually then we wouldn't need to go to Church and sit and listen to pastors preach to us. Did you notice when Jesus said: Matthew 17:21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. In other words, the Christian that commits himself to regular prayer and fasting would be at an advanced level when compared to the Christian who just goes to Church and comes back home and doesn't have any time for his personal spiritual growth. Do you expect someone who just became born again to raise the dead? Definitely not. He'd still have growth to do. I never said the family was hiding something. I was just saying it's possible. The fact that you don't believe in the Bible doesn't mean that those who do are deluded. No. Your yardstick for measuring lies as far as religion is concerned is your own belief. Hardly reliable. Here's my point - assuming they had sin in them, then they wouldn't qualify for the ministry of angels. The first verse I quoted said that angels associate with people who fear God. The second one said that angels listen to the voice of the word of God. The third one showed us that angels are servants of God, just like Christians are on earth. Now, fear of God and the word of God are two things that can hardly be found in a sinner. So when the conditions of their master aren't met, angels can't move an inch. As per Joseph, the Bible clearly states in Matthew 1:19 that Joseph was a just man. There's a difference between saying something is possible and saying that it's true. Faith is not just in action. Faith is from the inside. In fact, it is faith that produces the actions. You see, some people copy actions, without having the faith behind it. So when you just do things without the faith on the inside, then you might as well not do anything. I AM NOT SAYING THAT IS THE CASE WITH THIS FAMILY!. Have you ever considered that maybe Jesus' reference to the mustard seed wasn't physical? It wasn't in terms of size? Please try and think along that line. Maybe it was in reference to what comes out of a mustard seed. Faith can't be quantified physically, so it's not possible that Jesus meant it physically. I wonder what I did to deserve such insults. Also, if it makes any difference to you, you should know that I don't drink. |

mactao:It's usually the norm with christians that when the truth about their wicked god is exposed they label it as insults. . .a deluded man hardly knows he's deluded. Because there's such a thing as spiritual growth.If all Christians were on the same level spiritually then we wouldn't need to go to Church and sit and listen to pastors preach to us.[/b]Did you notice when Jesus said:Again this sounds absolutely lame. That family had been praying to god for YEARS and it's stated that they had a bible study group where they studied the word of god regularly. "Faith cometh by hearing and hearing the word" - the parents obviously heard the word regularly and i'm sure that pretty much gave them the confidence and faith to deny the little child treatment- but yet again god proved that he's no powerful than an earthworm. Do you expect someone who just became born again to raise the dead? Definitely not.He'd still have growth to do.And why not? Jesus said all you need is to have faith and you'll move mountains. This "spiritual growth" crap is just an excuse given for the inability of christians to perform miracles. I never said the family was hiding something. I was just saying it's possible.Is it also possible that your god is ineffective and powerless? The fact that you don't believe in the Bible doesn't mean that those who do are deluded. No.Delusion is absolute belief inspite of no evidence. There's no evidence for all the miraculous claims in the bible from creation to the noah's flood, right to the miracles and resurrection of jesus. NO EVIDENCE. Belief in such is DELUSION. Your yardstick for measuring lies as far as religion is concerned is your own belief. Hardly reliable.My yardstick is REALITY and it's pretty reliable. Christians aren't raising the dead like jesus promised, how many serpents have you picked up and not been bitten, when last did you walk on water or turn it into wine - all these are some of the ridiculous promises of the lying jesus yet reality puts a hole in all this. Here's my point - assuming they had sin in them, then they wouldn't qualify for the ministry of angels. The first verse I quoted said that angels associate with people who fear God. The second one said that angels listen to the voice of the word of God. The third one showed us that angels are servants of God, just like Christians are on earth. Now, fear of God and the word of God are two things that can hardly be found in a sinner. So when the conditions of their master aren't met, angels can't move an inch.To excuse the laziness of your god you resort to assuming the family has sin- ha! This whole mumbo jumbo about the angels appearing to children of god is rubbish. Angels appeared to Balaam, esau and laban yet all these people were not in good terms with the lord. An angel even appeared to Hagar the egyptian slave of abraham in the desert- so stop lying for jesus. God in his wickedness could not send one to go warn this parents, such ministrations shouldn't even take 1 second yet god is still so selfish. As per Joseph, the Bible clearly states in Matthew 1:19 that Joseph was a just man.Last time i checked the parents of this little child are men and not elves. There's a difference between saying something is possible and saying that it's true.Saying something is a possibility gives you a fail safe option you can always fall back on- how lazy is that? Faith is not just in action. Faith is from the inside. In fact, it is faith that produces the actions. You see, some people copy actions, without having the faith behind it. So when you just do things without the faith on the inside, then you might as well not do anything. I AM NOT SAYING THAT IS THE CASE WITH THIS FAMILY!.The family's action signify faith.Faith is your action i.e take a step of faith- stop lying! I've been in a faith ministry church for decades at least i grabbed that point. By the action of this family it shows they have faith. If they didn't they would take the kid to a hospital afterall it's cheap. Nobody gambles with the life of their child without believing wholly in their course of action. Have you ever considered that maybe Jesus' reference to the mustard seed wasn't physical? It wasn't in terms of size? Please try and think along that line. Maybe it was in reference to what comes out of a mustard seed. Faith can't be quantified physically, so it's not possible that Jesus meant it physically.What does this have to do with anything? You measure your faith by the actions and by the actions of this family they had mountain size faith. I wonder what I did to deserve such insults.Also, if it makes any difference to you,you should know that I don't drink.I didn't insult you, i spoke the truth. And yes you are drunk- drunk with the lies of jesus. |

Tudor, that statement doesn't involve God in anyway. It's a direct insult at me. Or has the meaning of insult changed? People have experiences with God everyday. Me inclusive. The fact that you don't believe or you've never had one doesn't mean it's all untrue. Also, if deluded drunk isn't an insult, then I wonder what is. I rest my case. |
Re: Girl Dies After Parents Pray For Healing Instead Of Seeking Medical Help by Nobody: 8:57pm On Aug 07, 2009 |
I've given every argument the way a Christian would. You have written them off as delusion and Christian's crap. I wonder what more you want. |
Re: Girl Dies After Parents Pray For Healing Instead Of Seeking Medical Help by Tudor6(f): 10:19pm On Aug 07, 2009 |
mactao: Have you no shame? Do you now lack dignity and self respect that you now allude rich_john's post to me. You're desperately looking for insults to pin on me and i'm not suprised. . . .i'm disappointed that yet again another so-called born again christian would lie repeatedly for jesus. . . People have experiences with God everyday. Me inclusive. The fact that you don't believe or you've never had one doesn't mean it's all untrue.The experience is always in the head of these people. We never see any evidence or physical manifestation- if that doesn't scream madness then i don't know what is. If it cannot be proven i.e no evidence for such then it's pure delusion. Also, if deluded drunk isn't an insult, then I wonder what is.Your delusion has been shown to be the truth so also is your drunkeness with the absolute hogwash said by jesus.- this isn't insult but the truth. Afterall your bible calls atheist fools while jesus famously labelled the pharisees as hypocrite and fools- tell me, why are you crying? |

Ogaga4Luv: we can't be together "darkness and light has nothing to share Often u make me understand ur sick in the head, but i don't mean to hurt you because ur already hurt and in bondage, though sorry. You talk as if u don't have understanding - of course your master is a master of total confusion. Human diseases are from Satan and his agents. Note: they call it religion, we call it Christians religion, and some see it as a medium for "seeking for higher powers" - where is ur stand - hence Satan is lower and cultic pls leave this forum "Religion” |

I think you have been misunderstanding me,i have never share with you i got some sickness,you totally wrong! bacause im okey my dear,dont be so embarrassed on my stubborness of my belief,-for you also have similar stubborness on your own belief ib"Christianity". you dont axpect me to follow up with an imaginery"God" causing confussion in our world today,dont forget Satan"Myself" is watching over you!-he command's you as an Obedient daughter each day and you follow up very fast.,but now i see no reason you're hating the controller of everything's,Living and non-Living thing's.

You can just be serious my dear,i have notice how you fastly grow annoyed with an "Unbeliever" in God,and if any person come's to think about it everything's have a beginning,if really someone'something describe as God created the world ,but you think God must Originate or start from somewhere?
