Kay 17: Isn't it your decision to acccept Jesus as your lord and saviour?

Probably you are too afraid to take the major steps in your life, you relegated that decision making task to Jesus to handle. But note you chose Jesus
if accepting Jesus as my saviour is dat easy, why dont you accept him today?
No step in life might be as 'difficul' as following Jesus.
Even those who ar said to av made it in lyf later realise dat they need Jesus. Pastor Adeboye (who had a phd at abt 35yrs nd wntd to be d youngst vice chancelor in nigeria) in the1980s (when RCCG was not yet knwn beyond ebute metta in lagos) had to burn all his certificates so he wouldnt be temptd to go bck to lecturing. What other descision could be "harder" than dis?
He has gotten to a level he would never av gotten if he had bn a lecturer.
Bro, at the end, on the long run, u'll knw dat it pays to serve God. Jst as rewards are given AFTER a race, so would GOD reward us AFTER our journey on earth...where there'll be no re-run.

[quote author=Area_boy]Well, since we would never know what he could have got otherwise, i do not then think this is enough conclusion to praise your god..

What if the other direction would have got this man 4 masters degree? and even a better "legacy". Neither you nor I can actually tell, so why not leave the whole thing to chance than concluding god had a "hand"?[/quote]chance you say? Chance as in 'luck'? If so, then u mst be joking.
I jst told u a story of smebody who at the age of 18yrs was spending 3hrs to pray everyday, and at a time went a whole month without food(fasting) jst 4him to achiev these thngs. and u say 'chance'?
He simply allowed God have His way.

Kay 17: If God selects your purpose equal to that of a chicken, would you accept such a fate?
jeremiah 29:11 says.
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end"

our small human mind cant comprehend wat God has 4us. Most times, It takes God to convince us even b4 we cn completely adhere to his plans. Bt if we cn do dis, we'l b glad we did.

Kay 17: I see my existence casts a reflective value system on the world,t hrough which I make sense of the world and at every moment of my life create meaning. I don't mistake myself for my job! Or my family or society's representations.

Even my sufferings are given such a meaning that empowers me more. And my potential death brings an endearment value in that since life is temporary, its beautiful.

So my career, "ministry", nairaland moniker, society are a very small bit of my life.
pls permit me to tell u this story of smebody i knw very well.
This man had distinction (OND) frm my skul nd wntd to cross to UI. Aftr getting d admissn to UI, God told him dat he had to do smethng in the polytechnic. So dis man had to wait despite the pressure 4rm his family.
Today as i speak, after 20 years that this event occured, the legacy of wat ds man did still remains (somethng i'm a product of) and it has spread to over 30 higher institutns in nigeria. The man now has abt 2 masters in diff fields.

His mind wouldnt av cocieved that at d first place. He initially didnt want to but he had to do because HE WAS SURE THAT IT WAS GOD SPEAKING.
God is offering dis to everybody...bt its our duty to accept d offer.

everythng u mentioned wouldnt be done while sleeping or sitting on the couch. Are careers and ministries not meant to be a platform to achieve these thngs?

God's purpose 4my life would need me to spend more time at home. therefore, i might never go into an 8am-6pm job.

Infact, most people who discover God's purpose 4 their lyf at a very latter stage tend to abandon their jobs no matter aw far de'v gne.

Kay 17: Despite the assurances and hope, you confuse your meaning to life with your social role in life. You are NOT your career neither is your ministry you! They are separable from you.

Your problem is you use representations and other things to define yourself. And christianity isn't helping.

Sit back, and think about yourself and what your being means.
can u pls spare me ur tym and tell me ur own purpose in lyf nd aw u came abt dm.

Uyi Iredia: @ anucoku: These words of assurance are simply your mind playing you. Would you believe a person's belief that God told him to kill his wife, or a woman that God'll have her kill her kids,they believe these things as much as you and heard CLEAR words of assurance. I find it funny, even ironic where it's a Christian psychiatrist such cases as mental disorders, when such is said to be certainly not of God. How u take know. God no tell Pa Abram to kill Isaac ? And for NT before u say Jesus blood don cover this, God no use Holy Spirit kill Ananias and Sapphira ?
nah bro... I wount deny the fact that some pple mistake their minds to the voice of God.
GOD'S NEW COVENANT DOESNT ALLOW ANY FORM OF KILLING.

Recognising God's voice (within) is jst lyk learning a trade, its nt dne in a day. Followin ur MIND doesnt always gv u +ve results bt God's voice ALWAYS lead to +ve results. And what can you say when the voice is audible?

The fact that ur parents beat u doesnt mean that they hate u...infact, as time goes on and u grow to knw mre abt life, u'll be glad that they beat u. There are times i even look back and say 'i shld av almost bn killd' for smethngs i did when i ws youngr. So ananias nd co got instant judgement wch has preventd several pple 4rm dieing 4rm such sin (even those dat refuse to learn 4rm it would stil face judgement).
And so also, everyday we live as individuals is jst another opportunity givn to us to knw God.

Kay 17: Tell me what is your purpose in life?
i love this questn...bro.
Despite the fact that i'm an under-graduate, i've had enough 'words of assurance and revelatns from God' concerning my purpose in life, both in carrear and ministry. This is something i would av never been able to know without aving a living relatnshp with God.

Jeremiah didnt know the purpose of his life until he knew God. God even went on to empower him and gave him all he needed to fufil dis purpose (jeremiah 1:4-10). This is what God has done for me, and he will do 4everyone who comes to him (jeremiah 29:11-13).

I'v tasted both sides of life (life without and with God) and i can say that there's nothing lyk aving a living relatnshp with God. Discovering one's purpose in life starts with discovering God.
Christianity Etc › Re: Questions For Atheists!!! by anochuko01(m): 7:27am On Nov 09, 2013
Kay 17: No, Christianity does not give full meaning to our existential issues. It does not address the issue of suffering properly. It gives a generic purpose/meaning in life to all human regardless of of our pecularities and which is obviously inadequate.
just as NOKIA wont write the WHOLE FUNCTIONS (except basic)of its phone in its manual and u discover abt it as time goes on, so can u nt discover ALL about christainity OUTSIDE IT. U knw more abt life, God, ur-self and all other thngs as time goes on

Why is 'killing' and 'stealing' a crime today. Also, aw did Little moral values like 'always sayin the truth' and 'obedience' come into existence. Does it mean that leaders around the world sat together and concluded on it? Whats the ORIGIN of morals?

Mr Aboki: Im sure you are a Christian...


How would you like to be judged by the actions of Rev. King or Prophet Okeke a.k.a Eddy Nawgu?

Or you are Igbo, how would you like your entire people to be judged by the actions of Okija juju or Otokoto.

Or maybe you are Yoruba, Would you like your entire tribe to be judged by the actions of Bola Adebisi

e.t.c..





There are Muslim Terrorists, Christian terrorists, Hindu Terrorists, e.t.c.. Why pick on one and ignore the other.
brother, if u wnt to be sincere, i'm nt sure if u cn mention a group going abt and killin pple in d name of jesus christ. These pple u mentioned were individualy motivated bt islamic terorism is a global issue. Knowin dat Naija has bn able to cut the exceses of ds pple u talkd abt, i'm nt sure u are worried by d way these islamic extremism has grown.
I'm nt against islamic banking, but the truth is dat we dnt knw aw sincere it is. Since we'll need to wait and gv dm a chance, i wunt be surprised if it turns out into wat we are experiencing now.

onetrack: Who are you addressing? If atheists, then you should know that none of us believe in supernatural events or powers, so all those rituals and cults are fake. If you are addressing people that believe in those things, then you are not addressing atheists.
that the "super-natural" doesnt exist.....thats funny to hear. But if by mistake you fall into their hands, just remember that Jesus' name saves...you hear?

"loan without interest"
as sweet as this may be, its difficult to just believe that there's no hidden agenda to this islamic banking of a thing, knowing all plans by this people to bring people to their side.
That was how bin-laden started to build free roads, houses, bridges, large farm-lands etc in sudan (in 1993-1994) not knowing dat he had evil plans in mind.

This are the same people who say they represent peace and yet go about bombing people.

Look at egypt, after morsi had failed as an extremist (brother-hood), he escaped from prison and joined democratic govt (something they are vehemently against) just to av authority ovr pple. AND THIS IS THEIR NEW STRATEGY. TO COME TO POWER THRU DEMOCRACY.

Look at aregbesola, i liked him for the 'opon imo' idea. As for me, dats d bst thng dat'l happen to our educatn in decades. But why did he av to disturb d structure of christain skuls. He shld av tried it with millitary skuls nah

Alhaji dokubo has also gone to benin to start his own terror group (by building university). Wat does he av to offer? Dats aw they start.

SO, WITH THESE, I'M NOT IN FULL SUPPORT OF THIS IDEA OF ISLAMIC BANKING. Thank you

The fullnes of Jesus as God wasnt manifestd fully when he was on earth...becos he came as a man nd dwelld in the flesh. But after he ascended, he took his fullnes of bn God.

In revelatns 1:8, 11, Jesus refferd to himslf as the ALMIGHTY, ALPHA AND OMEGA, FIRST AND LAST.....

In rev 3:14.
The throne Jesus occupies at the side of God is as a virtue of bn a Godhead, a throne dat no other cn occupy.

Jesus said ' u shal reciev powr AFTER the holy spirit has cme upon u' the bible also refers the spirit to the SPIRIT OF CHRIST.

The Holy Spirit also SPEAKS thru people (smethng i'v experienced mre dan 1nce)... And He uses words like ME, I AM THE LORD, PEACE BE UNTO YOU etc. Its interesting to even knw dat HE KNOW US BY NAME (he mentnd sm1's name amng us). Hence, the Holy Spirit is mre dan jst powr bt its actualy the LIVING SPIRIT OF GOD.

I cn there4 say dat these three cnt be separatd.

there are things children of God should enjoy, like health, wisdom, power...these things are meant to be for every born again. These things are however gotten through faith and fervent prayer. THE PREACHING OF FAITH thats best is that YOU SEEK GOD ON WAT TO DO THROUGH PRAYERS AND THROUGH FAITH CARRY IT OUT.

there's nothing bad in it only if everybody knows wat it means....it could be written in full for the sake of those who dont know the meaning.

In my opinion, prayers are SPOKEN and not WRITTEN and POSTED to heaven. So its perhaps the duty of whosoever is reading or speaking to say 'IN JESUS NAME'

lanrexlan: Lol,they shy away from those verses.Imagine,the bible saying Numbers 23:19 (KJV) -God is not a man,that he should lie;neither the son of man,that he should repent:hath he said,and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken,and shall he not make it good?.Then,this same god was found many occasions repenting in the Bible.
1 Samuel 15:35 (KJV) -And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul:and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel

Exodus 32:14 (KJV) -And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people(Israel).

Genesis 6:6 (KJV) -And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth,and it grieved him at his heart.
.I think that's what happened in the NT,he has repented from his killings which he did in OT and becomes a loving god in the NT. grin grin grin
okay....at least the God in the New testament is a repented and loving God who even sacrificed his only son and not the blood sucking god that expects you to kill and force people to him (decieving u with virgins in heaven to sleep with).

even ur view of heaven is with (earthly pleasures)....
