MITCHELL96: Nice response, surprisingly. If it is wrong to look at such when praying, is it wrong to look at such while not praying? Or do you as a person exist in different states of holiness at different states of life? You don't need to walk around praying. But if your right hand offends youβif you know it's wrong to look at it while prayingβwhy not cut it off? The devil isn't that mysterious, pastor. |

BRATISLAVA: I'm not a pastor please. Well, the best thing to do is to get rid of the magazine because devil uses the things around us to tempt us. Either I get rid of it or I cover the back that had the unclad lady or just don't dwell on the picture whenever I see it. Just like the phone we all have now, I might be using my phone to do something good and worth doing while someone else is using his/hers to watch porn, scam people and all of that, and if you want to judge, we're both using a smartphone. I used mine for something good and someone else is using theirs for something bad. So, this is applicable to the magazine too, what does your mind tell you to do or feed you with immediately you stare at the nude girl in the magazine? |

MITCHELL96: You said one can't see Jesus physically, right? How come you Christians have pictures of Jesus in the Church? Where was his pictures found, if he was not seen physically? |

adeolamighty: And who told you I'm among those that have that shit as Jesus in my house? π I don't have strength for this, man. Jesus is a BLACK man with dread locks because the bible gave a clue about how his hair was 'Hair as a wool' That's the hint bible gave us and what you're seeing is just an imaginary picture by the white folks to deceive people to believing that's who Jesus is and how he looks like. |

Tokskob2008:you dey mind them. Them don chop their head |
Re: Why I Stopped Closing My Eyes During Prayers. by bobestman(m): 10:25pm On Jan 29, 2023 |
That is what oyibos told our ancestors to do and before they opened their eyes, they have taken over our land. Whether you close or open in your decrees, affirmations and meditations, if your heart is pure and you asked aright, you shall see! Leave those churchians, them don chop their head. |

Bahamas95: Those are two different things. You can't project your blatant disobedience on others like that and with such unrelated instances. Because you ate people's food doesn't mean I did. Fat lot of good those warnings did for you. |

Hey!!! The truth of the matter was that your mummy told you that, based on the reverential attitude, and, comportment auth to have in the presence of God, and she did not explain to you. In the real sense, we close our eyes to avoid distractions and to enable us to concentrate |
