I and my gal are planning settling down despite genotype not matching , she's AS same with me, but because of medical technological advancements, we visited a specialist who told us that we can still marry if we so desired to be together.

Just that If we can afford the cost of going for foetus testing whenever she's pregnant so as to ascertain the genotype of the child. According to him if the test is conducted and it turns out to be AA or AS, we can keep it, but if it's SS we determate, I have spoken to my gal and we are yet a decide despite this seeming goodnews that we can still be together if we choose to, she really wanted us together same with me.
On my part, I have been in terrible and toxic relationship for the past 4years that almost claimed my life but God served from her. And this my current gal came along and she's exactly what I prayed God for, she's really like a gift to me, since she came I have had peace of mind I don't want to loose her because of genotype but thank God for this technically medical advancement , please I want to know if anyone have undergone this treatment before , what's your experience or experiences

Nowhere in the entire context that is the Bible is it written or stated that what Jesus Christ said to the Canaanite woman only applied before His death. As a matter of fact, Jesus Christ, when He threw the gates open sending His disciples into the world, He urged them to wait for the Holy Spirit, the Helper from God, to arrive before they proceeded for that very reason. He, the Spirit of Truth, is a guide to lead His followers to those who Jesus Christ was sent to, the lost Sheep of Israel, who are in also among the gentiles. Jesus Christ sent His followers out into the Gentile world, to be fishers of men who are descended from the lost sheep of Israel, the ones who He, the good shepherd, was sent to gather back to God.

Kobojunkie:
Your claim that the verse signifies some shift from Law to grace is bullsheet!

Jesus Christ is God's New agreement of Peace, a Law promised by God through the prophets with which to bless the Nations with. He is God's Law in the Kingdom of God and pretty much told you this when in Matthew 11 vs 28 - 30 HE explained that He offers you both a yoke and a burden to bear, albeit better than the old.

The violent referenced are not those who are of God but the enemies of Jesus Christ- John 15 vs 14.

Kobojunkie:
Why do you folks like to use God's name to teach this bullsheet?

Hello guys. Please I'm not sure if this is new on CGI. My F1 visa was delayed about 3 weeks ago ,so while filling a new VISA application, I came across this page below. If I select No it will take me to document pick up location page and lastly payment page. However, If I choose YES, it will take me to the second screenshot.

Is this normal as I haven't been issued a Visa before let alone having an expired visa? Will this have any implication on being able to see a date .. just worried! Has anyone encountered this before? . Contribution /input will highly be appreciated .Thanks.

Abisola2022:
Hello house, I recently applied for my F1 visa and I used the emergency request link. When I submitted I was told I’ll get an email soon to know if it’s accepted or rejected. It’s been four days now and I haven’t gotten any mail to know my stand. Please, is there anyone in my shoes. And what exactly am I supposed to do? Thank you. I’ll be waiting for response.

People saw June and July regular dates for Lagos today, so I'd advise you to join date search groups if you haven't yet.

Welldone for the good works.
Please I need your input on my case:

As an F1 visa applicant, I indicated I will be travelling with my family (of 4, myself inclusive), and in the DS-160 application, I quoted it there that I will be sponsoring their trip. Even though the school did not object to this (base on the balance on my statement of account) I have concerns in the following areas:

Will it be advisable we all go for the visa appointment together or should I apply alone and let them apply for their F2 separately?

If we all go together, I plan on using landed properties, business, and parents as tie to Nigeria, will this be acceptable??

OR can I simply tell the VO that the essence of their coming was for them to obtain their visa so that they can come around during vacations?

I appreciate every responses I can get to enable me scale through.

Thanks

Hello people.

I'm actually in some kind of dilemma at the moment and need help and advise.

I got admitted for a Master degree in Public health against Fall in 5 different US universities. Trying to secure funding In form of a graduate assistantship has been very difficult. All effort yielded to nothing.

I then decided to go for a student loan (Mpower) of $30k with financial support of $10k from a friend. My loan was declined just before I attached my financial support letter and statement of account. The reason was that "Your projected debt burden at the time of graduation exceeds our risk limits". This loan was supposed to be for a year/session. The estimated cost for a session study was $40k.

And I was really banking on this loan. At this point, I really don't know what to do. Would my loan have been accepted if I had attached the sponsor letter and bank statement on time? If so, I could file for an appeal.

Did I make any mistake while applying that worked against me? I need advise.

Thank you

fairheart:

No, SEVIS payment cannot be transferred to another student.

If a wall is cracked and your solution is to paste another layer of plaster over it, that does not mean that the crack is gone. Changing churches does not solve the Op's underlying reservations about the bible.
I dare say, you may not even need religion to understand that a "God" exists. On the contrary, the past recorded accounts of events attributed to religion most definitely leads to a conclusion that a GOD like nothing in the holy books exists. I cannot understand a god who would sanction the numerous wars, genocides and rapes of the "enemies of Isra-el", or support the enemies of the Isra-elis when the tables are turned, and allow "his own people" to be raped and pilloried.

Help explain this!!!

englishmart:
1.Jesus is the only way to God, John 14:6
This invariably means those who don't believe in Jesus have no business in heaven.
Christians worldwide have an estimated population of 2.4billion people
Islam records an estimate of 1.9 billion adherents, Hindu has an estimated 1.1bn adherents. The remaining world's population have their own beliefs which includes atheism.
If Jesus is the only way to God, what happens to those who don't believe in him? Hell? Well, the Bible suggests so.

2. There are a lot of complications and contradictory remarks in the Bible- a verse says don't drink, another says "Drink for your stomach sake", or "Do not drink wherein excess."
Malachi 3:10 a famous Bible verse on tithing speaks about bringing your tithe to the storehouse (church, maybe)
Deuteronomy 14:22-26 says otherwise, it says "you should drink and be merry with your tithe". I'm seriously beginning to doubt the credibility of the Bible. Maybe the translators' fault or God told writers different stories on the same issue. Read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John's account of Jesus and see real contradictions.

3. Does God answer prayers? Well, I'm not really sure about that. Someone might be suffering from malaria, the person takes drugs and still prays, the drugs work, but the person thanks God. Or a successful surgical operation, instead of thanking the doctor, they thank God. Some illnesses that would have been treated led to deaths because a certain congregation who were supposed to take the ill persons to the hospital, circled around praying. Faith without work isn't it still dead?
I remember when I had stomach ulcer, it was really terrible, I prayed and made several promises to God that if He took away the ulcer, I'd drink no more alcohol and will be more devout in worshipping Him. That didn't solve anything though, I stopped drinking and took to taking my drugs more seriously. Weeks later, I was well. I returned to drinking and after a few months, the ulcer resurfaced. That was when I realized I really needed to quit drinking. Prayers wouldn't have solved that issue.
I spent 80% of 2019 at home because of my misgivings about God's existence.
I really wish I could be convinced about God's existence because I'm not even happy to be away from Church because of the views of friends and family.

4. Children of God, or so called children of God tend to suffer more tribulations, hard times and desperate moments, a lot of them scream "Vanity upon Vanity" when secular people live in luxury or spend extravagantly. God tends to turn his back on those who worship Him especially when they need Him most.
The 1933 Holocaust and mass murder of Jews to the tone of 6m was a clear indication that God turns His eyes against His people
Repulsive comments are highly welcome

Luke.16.16"The law and the prophets were until John; since then the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and every one enters it violently.

Bros the verse is still saying thesame thing,during the law (moses time) and the prophets, nothing about the heaven was preached, but during john the baptist and even now,the Kingdoms is preach and people are rushing in violently,earnestly.

Is just that Jesus brought grace in the struggling and this make it now easy for us, is by the grace of God we are saved,

Philipians 2.12 International Standard Version
And so, my dear friends, just as you have always obeyed, not only when I was with you but even more now that I am absent, continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.

How can you work out your salvation without contending violently against sin? One need to be violent with his self before he can work out his salvation,
The grace factor now come into play, by making it easy for us to contend.
Some time i will be contending violently with my self not to sin, but when the grace factor is there, I will just here it in my spirit, my Grace is sufficient for you to overcome this sin, and immediately I will overcome it,

Now those that don't contend violently with their self before grace speak, are those that fall into sin easily before realising, because they believe grace will speak for them when they ask for forgiveness, that why paul said In this romans

King James Bible
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

Holman Christian Standard Bible
What should we say then? Should we continue in sin so that grace may multiply?

So bro, Grace is a factor in our struggling. Just like some one will say I need the grace of God in my exam, and yet the person fail to read,
So bro in as much as we struggle violently to enter the Kingdom we need the grace of God to stand firm.
Unlike those in the days of john, they were unable to stand firmly because grace was not there,
There were just violently forcing there way in

Luke 16.16
Amplified version
Until John came, there were the Law and the Prophets; since then the good news (the Gospel) of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone strives violently to go in [would force his own way rather than God's way into it]
So bro that the grace factor jesus brought into place.

Paul really contend for the faith violently preaching without fear, because of the grace factor that always speak for him when ever he is in danger,

Topman0001:
Hmm! Another lesson. I wish I can know you more than this... There are some other things I still need to know in the bible.

paxonel:
Op, you have a very sharp brain. God bless you for this. If this is so, why then all the fire prayer everywhere in Nigeria?
