I dont believe witches and wizards exist, but i know bad and wicked people exist. given the struggle for survival and respect, people have the tendency for be desperate, crude and selfish... this in turn makes them appear wicked and evil to their victims

Proverbs 16:4 KJV
The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

Isaiah 45:7 KJV
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

. I think the mode just delete some of my post, this mode are very wicked, they hate to hear the truth, they think every evil is involved around Nigeria, what will they gain for deleting the history of truth about the generation of Adolf Hitler, this is pure wickedness and evil.

Mind sharing your source?

Matthew 6:1-4 KJV
Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

Don't say that with a tone of finality...

There are personal traits attached to the day and month you're born...

*The wise men saw the STAR of Jesus...

Sunday - SUN day
Monday - MOON day

I don't know much about numerology, but I know that:

You havent explained my question Sir and i dont like assumptions when it comes to scriptures and also good to leave pastors out of this.

What i need you to state is this.

Is God evil? YES/ NO. Then explain from scriptures.

YES, God is both GOOD and EVIL.

What other scriptural explanation do you need aside these ones:

*Wickedness from God
Proverbs 16:4
The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

*Evil spirit from God
1 Samuel 18:10
And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house:...

*Lying spirit from God
1 Kings 22:23
Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee.


*God made light and darkness; good and evil.

Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.


You must understand that life operates with two aspects if everything - DUALITY

*Good and Bad
*Light and Darkness
*Male and Female
*Positive and Negative etc

I'm through with you sir.

-Peace

I am quite surprised that the only thing you could point out to in all that write up is this.

Okay. Can you specifically explain one time you found DARKNESS in God. I mean describe the darkside or evil side of God to confirm there is darkness in him. And then state specifically that God is evil.

1 Samuel 18:10 KJV
And it came to pass on the morrow, that [b]the evil spirit from God [/b]came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.

You need to understand that there's more to the entity called God than what our pastors portrayed to us.

-Peace

Of course sir, we are all growing as the Lord is helping us. I said and I will say it again: I UNDERSTAND your point but while you are saying that revelation is all about information , I'M ASSURING US THAT:

For our sakes information is ONE OF The channels through which the SUBSTANCE of REVELATION comes: every word of God has a spirit component and unless you have the spirit (substance) of the Word there are dimensions you might not attain and that inability culminates to LIMITATIONS: if you don't believe what I said leave it for me and for those who are willing to receive: that's what I believe, and I know that if you desire to know the truth God will reveal it also to you: you might believe you don't need it but you can just leave those dimensions for me: I desire to have all that the Lord gives]

YOU RECEIVE SALVATION through the Word of faith: The gospel which you believe with your heart and confess with your mouth That God raised Jesus from the grave... ; but it doesn't end there :
Since the principles are kept, something happens in the spirit realm:
Christ Jesus (The Word) through the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in your spirit-man and there comes a TRANSFORMATION. Head knowledge will not be able to help you more than it helped the scribes, lawyers, Pharisees and Sadducees.:
You have to obtain the spirit of any result that you seek from the Lord. When you believe the Word with your spirit ( btw what are the Bible principles that enable us to believe with the heart? Are they not prayerful study of the scriptures, Meditation as well as intimacy amongst others ;it might start with information but it doesn't need to end there) :At the time of Revelation,the spirit component partners with your spirit and there is manifestation.

Every Word of God has a spirit component of which information is just a description(one of the channels through which it is conveyed). The spirit and life component is real and tangible.
Even wisdom is a person: a spirit : the Bible personifies her (Proverbs 7:4) observe also that same intimacy is seen here... I really take the Word of God seriously: for what God says it is , that's what it is.
Also check out:
(Ezekiel 2:1&2)
(1John1:1&2)

You have a challenge with comprehension.

Good evening.

Can i understand the meaning of the scriptures. Maybe you can give some explanation.

I will appreciate.

Those verses opposed to the one you quoted...


GOD IS LIGHT, in him there is no DARKNESS at all (1 John 1:5)

VS

Isaiah 45:7 KJV
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

hupernikao:
For a starter: The contributions of all who are in forefront in fighting COVID-19 for humanity are well praised and appreciated. Without you all, humanity would have found itself in a new dawn hopelessness and destruction. Likewise, for all scientific inventions that have been made available to support humanity this period.

COVID-19 has truly set a lot in motion across nations from economic breakdown, local segregation, questioning of belief system, continuous scientific research, to application of common sense and a search for hope. Great men are falling, great nations are gasping for survival. Many would never have believed such a day will come and many would never have hoped for such.

This event has led many to call on who or what they believed, rather not believed in. Others likewise have called on God’s name: some seek him out of fear, some out of mockery, some in ignorance and others holding to faith in His words.

The hope of many nations has aforetime rested on the ever-tested scientific discoveries and solutions but currently the best of human’s knowledge and survival are fastened on symptomized trials of both common sense and existing drugs pending another breakthrough of sustainable cure.

But as the search for cure continue, I pondered, how long could humanity truly have, if we assume COVID was an attempt to eradicate all lives on earth. Or better still, will science have had another day/month in this fight?

I am never an advocate of comparing science with God or the scriptures, as I believe they are never in struggle of supremacy nor disproving each other. Science has its place: the natural and most of its discoveries within this limit are neither against humanity nor faith in God. There may be some (believers) who are driven by ignorance and lack of proper study and understanding of the scriptures, who have either wrestled with science or read science into the scriptures for “balance”. This is a grave error among some.

Likewise, not sparing those “without God” in this non-existing tussle of Faith and Science, who take every opportunity using science as a tool to smear, by acting as street touts who find joy in setting up 'two fighting' between Faith and Science just to justify their godlessness.
Science successes are well defined and its contribution to humanity are also well documented and appreciated across all endeavor. Yet we must not lose focus on its gradual growth in its current infancy until it ascends to the full knowledge of the “hows” and “whys” of this world.

Like I always say, Science is still in its embryo of knowledge, when it comes to maturity it will know Faith and God with undeniable facts. Hence the non-existing contradiction of Faith and Science are only peddled by some sects from both divides.

For example:

One with Faith once said



And I wondered what God is that, a creator who has to prove his omnipotent to his creatures? One who wrestle power with his creature to prove “Goddish”? Or one who finds joy in killing the disloyal, the “enemies” but prevents his creatures from doing same?

Pray tell…

…what will such God gain in crashing a plane just to say something to a nation or the world?
…Or in killing hundreds of loved ones with COVID-19 just to get attention.

It is sad that we are always in a relax mode without proper reasoning when issue like these happens to people afar from us. Let me ask, how will you take such lesson if such God has to get your attention by gruesomely murdering your most loved person on earth.

When all you see from the scriptures is a God with unstable character, who can both love and hate at the same time, and finds pleasure in killing lessons, then you have been led astray and reading your selfish desires and hatred for the unbelieving or mockers of God into the scriptures. We are not as taught from the scriptures.

Have you not read:



That is, man’s wrath can neither works the patience of God nor His righteousness. Human perception, satisfaction or dissatisfaction cannot change who God is.

The scriptures truth concluded:



Hence, until we start seeing God in this singular character of light, love and life, we will never be able to comprehend his word.

In this same breath, one of the father figures of Atheism (Stephen Hawking) once said:



Not surprising, that such statement comes from a man who can’t in all fairness see beyond the prism of experimental truth and constantly denied the experiential truth that have always stared at all humanities across the ages.

I pray tell...

…Tell a man gasping for breath, with pains which the best of our labs couldn't explain nor subside but whose only thought is filled with no hope of scientific solutions but unexplained interventions. Where does his hope lies, in dying or peradventure in finding life again?

…Tell that to a man, who just found out that all his three children are positive to covid-19 and with objective evidence of few more days to death. His instinct will set his hope where? In their death? Or their life? Life from where, from who?

…Or to a weaponless man caught in crossfire of the approaching enemy infantry.

It is common knowledge that a passive observer doesn't know the true experience of a loss or of having a privilege to a new life after all hope is gone. Hence, he can't see beyond the tool of science or as the moderate ones will say: it's by chance. But such chance to life is what several across the world pray and seek today in the face of this plague and in trusting God, life will prevail.

Yes, life on earth will prevail to the end that all things lost will be restored, more lives preserved, and nations comforted. COVID-19 will be defeated and science will take a greater leap forward in its experimentation.

In conclusion, Science and Faith have always been with mankind and will continue to, as such science is how man know and relate to his physical environments. The strength of science is in its slow but steady learning curve via experimentation and observations, but faith hold sway till science hope is completed at every instant of uncertainties.

Therefore, it is obvious today in the face of this novel plague, that humanity would have survived its early earth life by his God-given instinct that provide immediate survival and not by his experimentation. Faith and hope expressed in man’s instinct in the face of the unknown make us survive the unknown and the unprepared as we see in COVID today, while experiment, the foundation of science, prepares us ahead for the known danger or known unknown over an extra time.

Hence, in this fight with COVID-19, Science as usual will surely have its hopeful approval of extra time. But not just an extra time, but a return leg after gaining enough experience in this cause. And will surely win.
But before then, one thing holds the nations of the world and the preservation of humanity as it has always been over the ages even before the first human experimental tool was invented.

...humanity instinct and response to the saving power of God.

Proverbs 16:4 KJV
The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

Isaiah 45:7 KJV
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

Csonice1:


PAUL WAS WRITING TO THE CHURCH IN EPHESUS AND THIS IS WHAT HE SAID:

[EPHESIANS 3: from14 to19 : you might want to verify it yourself]

"14.For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15.Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
16.That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
17:That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18:May be ABLE TO COMPREHEND WITH ALL SAINTS WHAT IS THE BREADTH, AND LENGTH, AND DEPTH, AND HEIGHT;
19: AND TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, �WHICH PASSETH KNOWLEDGE, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God."

I wanted you to figure this out but let me help out: How do you know something that surpasses knowlege? * check verse 19 again.
Also,
Jesus told us that we shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free; the word "know" here is the same word expressed in Genesis "and Adam knew his wife..." it is intimacy .
it passes just head knowlege: don't intellectualize God's word: for would be leaning on the wisdom of men or even your own understanding; (that's how people coming up with human definitions like; heart only means the organ in a man pumping blood:yet In God's Word, we know that heart of a man means basically;the spirit of a man)

Something happened to Peter's inner man that you don't know about..
I already explained the two words over and over,
I've already told that they are related but different; yet for our sakes they abide,( just like hope and Faith..).You even used the analogy of rice and the water you cook it with and I told you that information is one of the channels; Revelation is the substance from the source. Not every truth is communicated through words some truths are imparted. We are talking about spirits here: Ezekiel 2:1-2 throws more light on this.

Now, ROMANS8:26

AMP26":So too the [Holy] Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings TOO DEEP FOR UTTERANCE."

[ do you know that when YOU pray in the spirit ; your understanding: mental faculty is unfruitful.. Not every interaction in the spirit realm requires your mind]

The Scribes, lawyers, Pharisees and Sadducees were angry with our Lord Jesus Christ..
They had the 'scriptures' they neither knew it nor did they know the power of God.
They had the information yet other people even Jesus's disciples lived it out experiencially through revelation before them. and Jesus glorified God The Lord of Heaven and Earth for that which He has revealed even to babes; people who were considered unlearned and all of that.

Be teachable and stop being rigid...

Revelation is a form of Information...simple.

To grow, you must be flexible, knowing when to unlearn stuffs you've always believed but are narrow in scope.

Philippians 3:18-19
(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)

hopefulLandlord:
What if God actually exists but only atheists would be allowed into heaven? I find it bizarre how theists never thought about that possibility. like we die and God goes "HopefulLandlord, I exist but the test is to weed out those that would believe something on no evidence, you passed. you may pass"

I guess they would find the thought highly disturbing lol

You a very "Hopeful" Landlord indeed.

To remember that this is the same Adeshina I religiously followed his column while still at The Sun newspaper still baffles me. He wrote as a man of strong convictions that if thrown in a pit of Lions like Daniel of the holy scriptures, he would still stand & speak for the truth. And I never missed his column.

But after APC welcomed him to the banquet table, I guess it's either he intentionally shuts down his brain or his meal was laced with memory loss.

Now I know the meaning of the saying which goes thus: Never trust an average Nigerian with power.
