plaetton: Because faith = doubt

If the faith battery is not constantly recharged, then the battery loses its power, eventually dies out, and then reverts to the default position of doubts.
That is why you need to pray fervently as many times as possible in a day.
Attend church as many times a week as possible.
Attend vigils, special prayers sessions, make-belief miracle sessions, listen to as many testimonies as possible.

These are the only ways you can be sure to keep your faith battery fully charged at all times.

You see, faith seems to have short battery life these days.
I guess they don't make them as good as they used to.

Who knows, maybe it has been outsourced to Chinese factories.

I DONT COMPREHEND YOU, I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU NEED CONTINUE GOING TO VIGIL, PRAYING AND FELLOWSHIPING WITH FELLOW BRETHREN. BUT WHERE DOES DOUBT COME IN?

Op, why must you close your eye.

I want to open it so as to see satan

The practice of witchcraft / voodoo / obeah is becoming increasingly widespread. It is prevalent in Africa, however it is gaining popularity in the West. Classified ads direct us to those who can help us win back lost love, make anyone fall in love with us, steal someone else’s wealth and prosperity, etc. Some of these are charlatans and fakes, but some really “deal” with the devil. The practice of divination is as old as the Old Testament, where witches and sorcerers obtained messages from demon spirits. So this is a real phenomenon. I have heard reports of persons sprinkling potions in someone else’s food to make them fall in love with them. Others try to bring curses on people using items of clothing. Witchcraft comes in many forms and is very real.
The question is, could such practices work or succeed against believers in Jesus Christ who have the Holy Spirit living in them? Ultimately this comes down to answering the question, to what extent can the devil attack us? It really does not matter whether the devil attacks on his own initiative or on someone else’s behest. How far can the devil go? Do we have a hedge of protection that the devil cannot penetrate? And if so, what is the extent of this protection? Are there things we can do that breaches this hedge?

People come to church for a while, appear to be passionate for God, then for no apparent reason, decide that they want nothing to do with Christ anymore. Why does that happen, and how do we prevent that from happening to us?Could it have been prevented? Could it be prevented?

ceosville: Nope! it's wrong! It's better Convincing the Person!

whats the difference?

Kalvan: I'm glad you said the bolded. None of us is completely enlightened, we all have some form of ignorance in us regardless of our intelligence. Socrates was pronounced the wisest man of his Time by the Oracle of Delphi. He disagreed, he went to people he considered wiser than him and asked them Philosophical Questions, and they failed to live up to expectation. Eventually, he realized that the reason he was the Wisest man was because he knew nothing and he accepted that he knew nothing.


It's wrong to call other people's beliefs False. All beliefs are subjective in my Opinion.

100percent agree

Hey peeps, lets share science knowledge. The first person asks a science question. The next person answers and asks his.this should be fun and educative

Is it right to tell people that what they believe in is false

is it right , or lack thereof, of Christians like myself calling other people’s beliefs false. Is it right to do that?

What right do we have calling someone a heretic. I mean nobody is perfect nobody understands the world perfectly. We are all mistaken about something about one thing or another.

It is like the tea pot calling the kettle black if you get my meaning

The pope only encouraged the troubled priest to continue being good.. Was he supposed to condemn and threaten him with hell fire?

Till death do us part

She played a fast trick on you...its a lie

Goodnews for guys

When its raining and sun is shining.............lion is giving birth

Well it might be a small thing, but the New Pope decided NOT to attend a concert that was planned even before his was elected.
So far, the new Pope has not spent a night in the papal suite, but rather a much plainer and busier suite in the Vatican guest house.. and he take communal meals,and says Mass in the house Chapel rather than private Chapel the old Pope used.
Do you think the thrust away from the 'princely' attitude, a more humble approach is proper? Personally, I am impressed with his attitude, and think it's much healthier than the direction the Vatican has been going in for a long time.
Do you think it's the right direction, and do you think his efforts will mean anything in the long run, or even the short term?

I. WE MUST DIE TO LIVE (MT 16:24-26; ROM 6:3-4; GAL 2:20).

II. WE MUST MOURN TO BE HAPPY (MT 5:4).
(James 4:7-9 NKJV) Therefore

submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. {8} Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. {9} Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.


III. WE MUST SURRENDER TO BE VICTORIOUS (MT 19:16-22; ROM 12:1-2).

IV. WE MUST HATE TO LOVE (1 JN 2:15-17).
(Luke 14:26 NKJV) "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple.

V. WE MUST BE FOLLOWERS TO BE LEADERS (MT 4:19).
(John 10:27 NKJV) "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
(John 12:26 NKJV) "If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.
(1 Pet 2:21 NKJV) For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:
(1 Cor 11:1 NKJV) Imitate me, just as I also

VI. WE MUST BECOME POOR TO BECOME RICH (MT 5:3).
(2 Cor 8:9 NKJV) For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

VII. WE MUST BECOME THE LEAST TO BECOME THE GREATEST (MT 20:25-28).
(Luke 9:48 NKJV) and said to them, "Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great."

VIII. WE MUST BE SIGHTLESS TO SEE (2 COR 5:7).
(Rom 8:24 NKJV) For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?

IX. WE MUST WORK TO REST (MT 11:28FF; REV 14:13; EPH 2:10).

X. WE MUST BE HOMELESS TO HAVE A HOME (PHIL 3:20).
(2 Cor 5:1-2 NKJV) For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. {2} For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven

The word "paradox" is defined as "A seemingly contradictory statement that may nonetheless be true



There is a seeming paradox in living as a Christian. It is both utterly simple and extremely difficult (nay, impossible, but for the grace of God)


»The Christian life is simple in that faith the size of a mustard seed is enough. Yet it is difficult in that any amount of faith is sorely tested in this world.


»It is simple in that faith is a gift freely given through the amazing grace of a Father who loves us endlessly. Yet walking out that faith is difficult in a sin-filled, broken world.

»It is simple in that we do not have to be strong enough ourselves to live as a follower of Christ (in fact, we never will be strong enough on our own). Yet difficult in that we must be willing to lay down our strength and pick up Christ Jesus’.

»Being a Christian is simple in that payment for our sins has already been paid in full and salvation secured. Yet it is terribly difficult to comprehend such a gift from a human standpoint.

Yes, Christianity is insanely simple in its essence. Yet near impossible to accept in our pride. That’s why Jesus talks about the gate to salvation being narrow (Matthew 7:13-14).


Little in God’s economy is how we think it should be. The least become the most. The humble are rewarded. We are strongest when we are at our weakest. Blood cleanses us white as snow. A lowly carpenter is really the King. Death brings life. Grace is given freely to the undeserved

2 Life Lessons You Must Know!
I have found this life lessons on the internet from various sources and I picked the best ones. Enjoy

1.Often those who aren’t the easiest to love are the ones who need it the most.

2.Money is not the root of all evil, fear is.

3.The secret to happiness is the acceptance of yourself.

4.Heaven and hell exist here and now, within your own mind.

5.Music is one of the most supreme expressions of life. It is art in it’s most transitory form. It is gone within an instant, and therefore, extremely precious.

6.Follow your gut, you’ll thank yourself later.

7.Never let an argument last, never hold a grudge, it will make your heart heavy.

8.Be grateful for this moment, it is all there is.

9.The source of most of your frustrations and anxiety are the result of living in the future, or the past.

10.Spend time alone with yourself every day.

11.Always go with yourself, never against yourself.

12.You have to be your own best friend.

13.If you don’t like what someone else says to you, you can walk away. But if you don’t like what you say to yourself, you can’t walk away. Therefore, if you’re going to be with yourself all the time, you might as well be nice to yourself.

14.The truth shall indeed set you free.

15.The biggest lie is the lie of your imperfection.

16.Being kind is more important than being right.

17.Cherish those that you love, you never know if you’ll see them again.

18.Love is the supreme expression of life, it is the essence and ground of all creation.

19.Believing in yourself is the greatest gift you can give yourself.

20.The best investment you can make, is in yourself.

21.Sometimes the best answer is silence.

22.Love and compassion can heal the deepest wounds.

23.Your perception of others is a reflection of your own reality.

24.This moment is your life.Your life is between now and your next breath.So live each moment in full, in kindness and peace, without fear and regret

25. A lifetime isn’t very long.This is your life, and you’ve got to fight for it. Fight for what’s right. Fight for what you believe in. Fight for what’s important to you.Whatever you still need to do, start doing it today

26.Failures are only lessons. So never regret anything that has happened in your life; it cannot be changed, undone or forgotten. Take it all as lessons learned and move on with grace.

27.You are your most important relationship.Happiness is when you feel good about yourself without feeling the need for anyone else’s approval. You must first have a healthy relationship with yourself before you can have a healthy relationship with others

28.Smile at people who look like they are having a rough day. Be kind to them. Kindness is the only investment that never fails. And wherever there is a human being, there’s an opportunity for kindness. Learn to give, even if it’s just a smile, not because you have too much, but because you understand there are so many others who feel like they have nothing at all.

30.You fall, you rise, you make mistakes, you live, you learn. You’re human, not perfect. You’ve been hurt, but you’re alive. Think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, and to chase the things you love. Sometimes there is sadness in our journey, but there is also lots of beauty. We must keep putting one foot in front of the other even when we hurt, for we will never know what is waiting for us just around the bend.

31. Look at the circles below. The black circles represent our relative life experiences. Mine is larger because I am older and have experienced more in my lifetime. The smaller red circles represent a negative event in our lives. Assume we both experienced the same exact event, whatever the nature. Notice that the negative event circles are the same size for each of us; but also notice what percentage of the area they occupy in each of the black circles. Your negative event seems much larger to you because it is a greater percentage of your total life experiences. I am not diminishing the importance of this event; I simply have a different perspective on it. What you need to understand is that an overwhelmingly painful event in your life right now will one day be part of your much larger past and not nearly as significant as it seems.

32.Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.

33.Life is too short not to enjoy it.

34.Don’t buy stuff you don’t need.

35.Make peace with your past so it won’t screw up the present.

36.Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

37.Get rid of anything that isn’t useful. Clutter weighs you down in many ways.

38.Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

39.No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

40.What other people think of you is none of your business.

41.Time heals almost everything. Give Time time.

42.All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

43.Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

44.Envy is a waste of time. Accept what you already have, not what you think you need.

45.Doing anything specifically to impress people is stupid.People are impressed by those who aren’t trying to impress them and are comfortable in themselves and social and interesting.

46.Make Your Own Rules.Life often doesn’t make sense,you have to make up rules as you go

47.Embrace Your Weirdness.To act any other way, to be any other person, is an option that never even should eneter yout head

48. Nothing risked, nothing gained. If you find yourself feeling miserable about something like your job, JUST QUIT. You will make it work for yourself. You will unleash your inner-hustler.

49.You don’t need everyone to like you.When people don’t like you, nothing actually happens. The world does not end. You don’t feel them breathing down your neck. In fact, the more you ignore them and just go about your business, the better off you are.”

50.Awareness is the most precious kind of freedom.This is yet another reason why minimalism is so appealing to so many people. It removes many of the obstructions and allows us to focus on what’s important. Minimalism is a tool to rid ourselves of superfluous excess in favor of a meaningful life, it is a tool to take a seemingly intricate and convoluted world, cluttered with its endless embellishments, and make it simpler, easier, realer.

51.Goals aren’t as important as we think. Try working without them for a week. Turns out, you can do amazing things without goals. And you don’t have to manage them, cutting out on some of the bureaucracy of your life. You’re less stressed without goals, and you’re freer to choose paths you couldn’t have foreseen without them.


52.The moment is all there is. All our worries and plans about the future, all our replaying of things that happened in the past — it’s all in our heads, and it just distracts us from fully living right now. Let go of all that, and just focus on what you’re doing, right at this moment. In this way, any activity can be meditation.

A lot of people belief in God is so connected to their culture and religion, that disbelieving in their religion/culture, would result in a total disconnect from God.

In fact, a lot people go through a phase of Deism after leaving their religion, only to be lead out of it, slowly but surely, into Atheism.

This however definitely not going to be my path.

Sometimes when I really think about the issue, I wonder, how would I view myself or human beings, if I disbelieve in God.

Our sense of self is connected to so many beliefs with no real "evidence" for it, in the sense of scientific or philosophical or logical evidence.

The sense that I exist. What is this "I". Why do I regret past actions, why do I care about future actions.

Why do I feel connected to my family. Why should I feel gratitude towards my parents?

Why should I love? What is love? What is loving...what is this I that love.

Why should I feel pride? Why should I feel shame? Why should I want honor? Why should I believe in honor?

What type of praise should I deny? Should I acknowledge mundane praise but reject holiness subsection of praise?

What is praise? What is being praised when someone does something great? Is the body and motion of the body in that action? Is the brain cells working together that are being praised? What is this me that I see constantly? Is it located anywhere? Is it the body? So if you cut off my legs, would I be losing a part of that "I". If I lose some brain cells, would I be losing part of that "I".

What is justice? What is morality? What is right, what is wrong, what is good what is evil.

You see, I came to the conclusion, if God is a delusional concept, then so are all these. Our sense of I, our sense of praise, our sense of pride, our sense of beauty, our sense of justice, our sense of honour, our sense of greatness, our sense of morals and ethics, to me, these are metaphysical, and must have come down from a living metaphysical eternal reality.

At the very least, they are highly questionable, very improbable to being justified in belief in these things, without belief in God.



I see it. I know it. I'm not a delusion. My pride is justified. My shame is also justified. My regrets, my looking towards the future.

An exact objective measurement to who I am exists, even if I don't know it, I know there is a objective measurement to me. It's not universal, it's rather particular to a perfect judge. Without his eyes sight and vision of who I am, my existence would not be possible.

It would be a delusional concept, with no grounding. I live through this being, I see through this being, I know through this being.

Blood is important and binds people closely, but spiritual origin, is more important, and makes this being the closest of all beings to me.

I will love this being with all my heart. I will revere it with all my heart. And I will look towards till my soul eyes break all veils, and reach the source of grandeur and my soul becomes suspended in honour of it's sanctity and holiness.

I won't say I don't care if Atheist believe or don't believe. I think our relationship with this being is healthy for us. Recognizing it will help us recognize who we are. Forgetting will make us forget who we are.

Just like it's unhealthy to disconnect from family, friends, etc, it's unhealthy to disconnect from the closest of all beings to us, the most caring for us.

I don't believe God interferes in the physical world, but I do believe he interferes in the spiritual world. And in that, I pray all of you will one day realize your souls existence and it's spiritual realm, and that God will help you achieve certainty in him and in your own souls.

atheist have no explanation for anything. they are only god at criticizing others explanation
