Are u proficient in all languages of this world, both popular and remote village language  well according to the Bible when the disciples started speaking in tongues everyone could understand them. I understand more than one language, so If his tongues make sense in both the languages I understand then it is legit, but if it doesn't well...... I don't really know what to say.  |

SuperOnyi:

This is why I advise myself and others to always think outside the box when things like this happens. My big bro has been unable to walk, talk, or move his hands flexibly and he's over 30 now.
I always maintain that if my parents were rich and went the modern medicine route, this man (my own brother) wouldn't be crawling on the ground like an infant. Most deaths in Nigeria could have been prevented if people thought outside the normal box.
When I came back weeks ago after almost 7 years of absence, I broke down in tears seeing him. Just this morning, he has messed up his body because he can't even use the toilet.
I have faith one day my brother will walk and his life will be made easier with science. I also believe "mysterious" circumstances like the one in the original post could have been easily prevented but then isn't this why life is like a game? That is just the funny thing about faith. Having faith is just like being in the back seat of high speed car with the driver also sitting in the back seat with you and then telling you "God is in control of the steering wheel" The reason why people pray for things is because they are too lazy to look for a solution themselves eg they pray for God to heal their sick instead of researching science and healing themselves. The reason for the decline of religion in developed countries is not because they are becoming atheists but rather because they are running out of things to ask God for because they have a solution to most of their problems. |

fuckJones: most pastors return to receive l all the kingdom offer to Jesus by the devel that he refused, infact they are asking for more from the devel  Na the way forward be that na  But seriously if they didn't preach all that there will be very few Christians today. The primary reason why many people are still Christians is because of the possible rewards, take that away and watch the churches become deserted. |

fuckJones: Today's “mega churches” are all about what you can get, not to glorify and thank God for His most wonderful gift of salvation. They water down the message in order to appeal to society’s self-centred nature.
One is hard pressed to even hear the name Jesus being spoken. I forced myself to sit through one sermon by one so-called Daddy G. O just to see if he ever made mention of the Gospel. The only reference he made to God was describing how to manipulate God into giving you whatever you want. And he is not alone. No one wants to hear the truth anymore. This is just the truth. The main things preached today is 1. God will make you rich and prosperous 2. God will kill all your enemies 3. God will not allow you to suffer or be involved in any accidents 4. God will make you a famous and popular person 5. God will punish you if you don't pay tithe or go to church. |

fuckJones: If you look carefully at the recorded words of Jesus, you will notice that his greatest condemnation was reserved for religious hypocrites. Anyone who claims to be his disciple without a similar revulsion and distain for hypocrisy is just pretending
That’s why I don’t attend church.
I really dislike how many people are so nice in church and so awful once they leave.
people think that going to church makes them look good and maybe it does but I found out how many liars there are in church.
A few years ago I had friends I thought were really good friends but after I got sick they stopped coming around just when I needed them the most.
At least I know I’m not always worthy of being in church but I do ask for forgiveness and I think God knows The primary cause of this is the Carrot and stick (reward and punishment) method used to preach the gospel. The fundamental teachings of modern day Christianity is heaven and hell so Christians do not care about actually being Good but rather appearing to be Good in order to avoid hell and go to heaven. |

This is a no-brainier, she literally has tan lines. Oh looks like i miss took her for MHA's Mirko. But to be fair the way anime depict their characters are in such a way that it is almost impossible to detetermine their race. if you've seen chained soldier you would know what i mean. |

For those asking for black characters in anime, they probably haven't read JJK manga. It appears as though many Japanese authors do not know how to depict black characters without referencing their race. although they sometimes do a good job such as fire force charon, but only rarely. |

MaxInDHouse: People committing suicide have come to a hard and most difficult conclusion any living creature could think of so it's not their fault. This is similar to what I was saying. My main point was that the OP was approaching suicide unemotionally. Take for example now, If the OP saw someone about to take their life, what would he say to that person. Is it A. Threaten the person with hell or B. Inquire about to person's problems and attempt to provide a solution. |

6ixT8: It isn't a good thing to not have an untouchable savings.
It's pitiably obvious that the mindset of majority of punters is viewing their hard earn monies as a by capital to invest into alabi's enterprise. Normally, it's a phase everyone ought to pass through. But many just got stuck into the rat race and keep repeating same circle.
Invitation from close paddy fit set in anytime, a gamblers will always be caught unprepared including during festive period. I really feel sorry for the married men stuck in this mess.
Not to criticize anyone in particular. But from my personal experience which I believe is relatable by like-minded punters.
Betting is draining. It's time consuming! If you think you have control of your mind, I challenge you to try and go 7days or a whole month without playing. You will agree that the force and spirit is strong.
All I'm preaching is for you guys to take care of your self and try to balance things up. And always remember say; odd no dey finish na money and precious time dey waste. Errr..... Boss nice write up. But I wan ask you something. What should one do if their punting reserve runs dry? How should they replenish it?  |
Christianity Etc › Re: The Afterlife- Fact Or Fallacy? by Everyday247: 1:54pm On Jul 10, 2024 |
Ken4Christ: You don't get my point. If you know that committing suicide is not the end of life, that there is a life after death with the possibility of ending up in a burning flame, you will refrain from it.
Most people do it because of ignorance and also because of wrong knowledge they have acquired through the years about what death really means. If you take my admonition as a threat, it also means that you are accusing Jesus of doing the same because he spoke of hell or eternal damnation more than any in the Bible. He even cursed some nations into hell. You do not understand what I'm saying. Your approach to suicide is naive, do you think people who engage in such acts do so light-heartedly? All animals are naturally hardwired towards self preservation. For someone to consider taking their life, it would take a very dire or traumatic situation or event. Sha I don't blame you, it's because you have never hit rock bottom before that's why you think like this. |

Ken4Christ: Each time I hear story of someone committing suicide, I just say within myself, 'I wish they knew that there is the afterlife.
And if they find themselves in hell, they will certainly regret committing suicide because the worst condition on earth is a million times better than going to hell.
When you die, it doesn't mean that you cease to exist. You only cease to function on earth. But your spirit lives on. And there are two possible destination,heaven or hell. If you are born again and live a life worthy of your calling, you will go to heaven. But if you are not, you will end up in hell. Sometimes, the spirit of some people linger awhile in the realm of death before they finally enter into heaven or hell. Some are given the opportunity to come back to earth because its not their time yet.
Please, prepare for the afterlife. It's real. Life doesn't end here on earth. Don't pursue pleasures and spend eternity in a burning flame. Don't kill yourself. If you do,you will end up in hell and regret for the rest of your life. This is very insensitive. Many people kill themselves due to problems such as depression, poverty, health issues, abuse etc but instead of finding ways to reduce or eliminate these problems that lead people to suicide, you decided to threaten them with hell as if that will solve the current problems. Imagine telling a depressed person who is about to kill themselves that they will go to hell if they do so without making any attempt to understand the person's situation.  |
