Defeating BH needs to be a collective effort, in terms of the necessary reforms that must take place. BH-affecting states need to play their own part in improving military efforts, implementing comprehensive programs to address the roots of radicalism (especially corruption and bad governance), provide better development assistance to impoverished communities, etc. The main drivers of BH are internal and must be addressed by Nigeria's federal and state-level governments.





Buhari is the commander in chief of the armed forces. There is no collective effort in him deploying the armed forces and its resources. You don't get to be in the decision loop because it's not your responsibility.

You are on point even Jesus said: Don’t you realize that I could ask my Father for thousands of angels to protect us, and he would send them instantly?

Partially yes. Some people are rich while some are poor.... it's the way things are. Afterall all fingers are not equal.

But some crave power and would prefer the riches doesn't spread. They use wealth and power as a weapon to suppress the vulnerable poor. The world we live in is survival for the fittest.

It doesn't mean people don't acquire wealth honestly, its just that those with power have designed a system to frustrate the process. They have the power to frustrate the efforts of the common man struggling. So you are either lucky or have to work twice as hard to acquire wealth or eventually when you do, it is snatched out of your hands either by powerful forces through politics or the corrupt system.

Point is if these people were to have the keys to heaven, they would decide who to kick out and who dominates the treasures of the place. According to them, they are powerful.

It's not Buhari's fault that Boko Haram is ravaging the country but it is his responsibility to solve the issue.
Buhari only carries out the responsibility of a father to his children by providing XYZ for them.
He chooses not to carry out his responsibility as the president.
He is a member of the APC or one of the reasons why Nigeria's economy is doomed.
The APC/PDP only ensure that the economy is doomed.

ThePlainTruth:
Everything in this world is just a scam, religion, marriage, friendship, jobs, polititics etc are all a scam, so what is God enjoying from creating this messed up world?
====

First, concerning the Lord GOD Almighty Who is Holy -
"He is the Rock, His work is perfect; For all His ways are justice, A God of truth and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He." - Deuteronomy 32:4

Second, this world was cursed because of the disobedience/ sin and fall of mankind (Genesis 3:17), "For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body." - Romans 8:22-23

Third, GOD Himself says "
"For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord God. “Therefore turn and live!” - Ezekiel 18:32

GOD has been, from before the foundation of the world to present - saving the souls of many, many people (Hebrews 4:3, Revelation 5:9) and this age will come to an end, and all things made new!

The Glorious New Creation
For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind." - Isaiah 65:17

The focus should be on becoming personally reconciled with GOD through belief in the Lord JESUS, the CHRIST!

"Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away." - Matthew 24:35

Many factors come into play BTW. However let's start with the fact that God watched as His own Son was unjustly killed in the most gruesome manner. This was followed closely by the martyred deaths of MOST of the early apostles. It still did not stop Him from being glorified.

According to you guys your god sent his son to go and die, how is that cared to Uwa's death? Or are you saying he sent Uwa to be raped and killed?

Nope, He's got a different perspective, eternity and judgement. Death is basically an exit to eternity. You don't believe in eternity and judgement that's why you feel so aggrieved and inconsolable.

Yeah suffering is so easy and pleasant because to your god it's a blip in time. Nevermind the conscious creatures enduring the suffering, they are insignificant and their pain is nothing.

Lol, if you have the real Holy Spirit. You'll not feel all these suffering. There's a peace that passes understanding and an unexplainable joy. You must have read of it.

i said ALL. Jesus Christ like you said came to feel the suffering, in fact He rejected the pain reliever. Of course, you will feel pain and tribulation if something bad happens. i don't mean one should be stoic or inconsiderate, we even mourn with them that mourn. What i mean is that you don't feel utter despair, hopelessness or devastation like most others do. If you read the life of the early apostles, all these things you call great were light afflictions that they even rejoiced over. People were going into fire and dens and singing joyfully. They are not hopeless, they believe in and even see an eternity of joy despite pain.

It is Always at the Pleasure, instance and Right of A Creator to attend to the needs of a creation exactly as it is Only when it pleases you to fix and repair your damaged car, phone or laptop that you would exercise your power over it!

I think you should know that humans were capable of going to the moon but they did not until they actualized that capability. Go study some history Hell and stop with the lazy. You'd find that learning improved human beings, and the Bible was one of the many teaching tools.

As for being super good nice and mega productive, please see here an atheist putting believers to shame.

When you see buda mention Bible, in future think "humans who live by one book alone will become malnourushed". Thinking of "a library full of books" instead of one book. will help you understand buda.

No one says the Bible is responsible for people showing love to one another, Hell. You just need to step outside your human bubble to know that even goats that don't read can love one another.

The point is that education does increase the ability of humans to love one another much more widely than they otherwise would have, and religion is just one more facilitator of that education to love.

But perhaps you are considering single individual people. Go study the Roman Empire to understand my point. You were conquerable if you were not in it but once you became part of it you were 'loved'.
