Was god asleep?

point of correction , God don't sleep

he knows everything


ananias and his wife they were servants of God , but when they lied about about God's money , God striked them immediately .

Christians are the ones pushing that narrative themselves. Have you seen them give their testimonies at Shiloh and redeemed camp??

HappyPagan:

Maybe he sinned. Maybe he wasn't prayerful enough.

It's like people believe being a Christian is some sort of protection against 'accidents' and death.

God didn't save them?
Couldn't?
Didn't care?

Ikr..the holy spirit couldn't advise him to not embark to Spain?

not every servant hears the voice of the master

Riele:
He was a pastor ! Wasn't he prayerful enough ? .

God , why did you let this happen ? .
What reply will his family give to those who taunts ? .

God , sometimes , you make me doubt your existence .

I'm so sad . I also lost a best friend today . He too served you .

I dedicate this FTC to my friend Isaac . May his gentle soul rest in peace .

They left the shitty life for a better place.

It isn't a "protection". The Bible never said it was. It is not a scriptural teaching

Apostle Paul told young Timothy in 2 Timothy 4:1-5)

1. I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his manifestation and his Kingdom:d

2 Preach the word, be at it urgently in favorable times and difficult times; reprove, reprimand, exhort, with all patience and art of teaching.

3 For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome* teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled.

4 They will turn away from listening to the truth and give attention to false stories.

5 You, though, keep your senses in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.

Verse 3 and 4 show clearly what is happening in our time. The Bible never said being a Christian is a protection from bad things happening.

Rather King Solomon said time and unexpected events overtake them all. "[b]Overtake them all"[/b], not just some. Below is what the Bible really says

Eccl 9:11-12

11 I have seen something further under the sun,
that the swift do not always win the race, nor do the mighty win the battle,
nor do the wise always have the food,
nor do the intelligent always have the riches,
nor do those with knowledge always have success,
because time and unexpected events overtake them all.

12 For man does not know his time.
Just as fish are caught in an evil net and birds are caught in a trap, so the sons of men are ensnared in a time of disaster, when it suddenly overtakes them.

Nah, he was too busy working in mysterious ways

The religion of soul travel. Its just an instrument to try to understand spirituality and God but God's only approved channel is Jesus. You're spiritual from your comment but unChristian. Take time to seek God out personally bro and not religion

Predestination, Karma etc on this thread

Very crazy story! They just died just like that

How does anybody explain something like this

Simple.
They drowned.
What other explanation are you looking for?

May their souls rest in peace in Jesus Name, Amen.

From all the current media commentary i've heard on this particular matter smells fishy.

It was a swimming pool and no other of the passers by thought to intervene.

I had a near death experience on my 18th birthday and it happened in a public swimming pool in a European hotel.

Can never forget that day, i was screaming and waving my hands aloft uncontrolably and nobody came to my rescue.

Some were actually making fun of me, i got back to the hotel room and told my father what had happened and he went ballistic.

Take me there, he said, when we got their all the people he asked flatly denied what had happened.

We moved out of the hotel that same night and never went back ever again.

And i was disciplined and put on a swimming course.

Ok i get it, neither of them are good swimmers.

How can so many people be allowed to meet such a tragic end in a swimming pool without the people present attempting to assist them?

officialfestus:
Pastors and native doctors normally don't see visions for their own selves... Well rip to him and others that lost their life today

My wife saw a vision of her demise.Am sure she prayed about it.It didn't change. She still had that accident that took her life.Once its time its time.

Don't worry, it's just poverty mentality messing with your head.

Redeem Job

MaziOmenuko:


So the will of God is for them to die a cruel, painful death while taking a timeout? If you are a father, you would watch your children grasp for air while water rushes down their lungs, chokes them until their eyeballs pops? You lot should take a moment and think deeply of your beliefs...honestly!

Na mumu dey worry that guy, leave him.

36STATES:


Going through your post have left me completely speechless. You are a clear pointer to the decay in the Nigerian educational system. You claim to be a graduate in this day and age, but you have a very medieval mindset. Sorry you lost your mom, but it is a real shame you are such an ignorant person. You are a graduate, but you still have superstitious beliefs?

Only crazy fools will take part in such fasting as you wrote, expecting it to change anything in real life except weakening your body system. What you didn't say is whether your mom took part in that foolish fasting, probably that killed her if she took part. Any man that marries your type will only go downward, except by share good luck.

I don't think you can offer much to a man in terms of enriching him intellectually and supporting him to navigate complex and difficult situations to arrive at a rationally and evidenced based decisions. That is what a modern man needs from a partner to succeed, not fasting or quoting the bible for him.

What has education got to do with one's faith or belief? With your education, you failed to know the importance of "diversity" and need to respecting people's choices and opinions.

We have professors; some are Christians, some Muslims, some pagans, and so on. Does it mean they aren't educated? Mind you education doesn't tell you which faith or religion to follow. Stop attacking people needlessly because of your own beliefs or opinions about life or issues.

In conclusion bro......
Live and let live......

greenmonk:
I just wonder if this cold winter is the best time to go swimming. The shock of jumping into the cold pool can stop the heart. I am a trained rescue swimmer.
The cold period is not the best of times to go swimming without a life saver.

But this happened in Spain not UK. Spain is warmer like 23deg. on that day

dalass:


Stop your stupid rants, God is not to be questioned as per our own foolishness.

1. Did any of those family members learn how to swim/ rescue a drowning person?
2. Could they have been doing something else aside this?
3. Since you're mentioning God all the time, did He ask them to go there?
4. Can the blame just be on someone else especially us and not God for a while?
5. Many trips we're involved in, did we even pray about it or ask for His protection. God said we should be vigilant, for the devil is looking for who to devour.
6. Is it just possible that it was their time to go to their reward with God? Many Apostles died horrible deaths and not natural deaths but enjoying in heaven now

Sorry for your loss but don't compound your woes further by hurling insults against your maker

God said we should pray during hard times that he will answer.
If prayer can't save a little, innocent baby girl from drowning, what then is its use?

Many Apostles died horrible deaths and not natural deaths but enjoying in heaven now.

Is that what they told you on WhatsApp?

Was it a 5 ft pool
10ft pool
I no understand

vickydankal:
How quick we ask God questions when things like this happen. Could it be possible, God may have been using different mediums to communicate with them to warn or direct them.

God knew already knew they would die, so why would he be sending signs to 'warn or direct' them?
