Amoeba isn't God Almighty who created Yahweh, Allah, Vishnu, Mazda, Moloch, Odin, Mother Earthus(Gaiai), Atum etc. And when God Almighty made the gods and goddesses, they did not grow in stature. It was the beings made by the gods that grow in stature with the exception of the anakims. There are passages of the Doctufos of truth where this is mentioned.

Stop adding Atum to the list

Faith is not strong until God is seen AS A CARING FATHER( matt6.25-34).This is because perfect love casts out fear(1jn4.18). You didn't tell him that you wanted to be saved when hesys died for you(Rom5.8-12).Fear evaporates when you know that God cares about you,he will not even treat you as your sins deserve if you truly repent(ps103.10-13,isa43. 25,dan9.9).

Religious men have presented a God that is waiting for you to make a mistake and wipe you out thereafter. My own Father God will tell me to forgive my offender 490 times in a day so how could He do less.See, apart from walking in love n forgiveness to our offenders FAITH ALSO WORKS BY KNOWING HIW MUCH GOD LOVES YOU(gal5.6).

We have to let people know that Jesus came to save sinners and not the righteous so let us stop making sins of men bigger than THE BLOOD(isa1.18,Lk19.10).If you have sinned against God then go to him with sincere repentance for forgiveness and take it by faith in the word(1jn1.9,isa43.25).

There is never a single regret over a confessed sin because God has forgiven you and has no record that you ever sinned,so where is the regret over what is no longer in God's mind.You too should forgive yourself and move on as though nothing happened.If God has forgotten then you too should forget.

Past and confessed sins only exist in your memory but your memory isnt God,his word or reality . Stop relying on your senses when you trust him because senses are deceptive when contrary to the word(prov3.5,2cor5.7)-Faith is confidence in God's word while trust is your commitment to d word.So ,believe that God cares about you more than earthly fathers who provide good things for their own children(mat7.7-12).

Cast all your worries on him because life battles are His for you and not yours AS HE CARES ALWAYS FOR YOU(2chr20.15,1pet5.7 TLB).God is always thinking about you and that is why ps121 says that God who protects/keeps Israel DOES NOT SLEEP NOR SLUMBER wow,doesnt that tells you that HE CARES?Even the prodigal son's father was waiting for his son after backsliding and wasting his father's hard earned resources (Lk15).

Believers faith today is not strong because if religious and teachings of legalism .I dont know about you but i am going ALL THE WAY WITH JESUS.This is your light so go shine with it.

No For Now, But I Believe Someday I Will

First of all, read the book of Acts consistently, else you might miss a lot of things

Okay, download all the PDF of Kenneth Hagin and start reading

I will get back to you

Read to teach others

2 Tim 2:2

Matthew 28:20 teaching them all that I have commanded you.

Spend more time in prayers and pay attention to the new testament, am not saying don't read the old testament. Acts 6:4, Luke 18:1-8

Get a small Bible, you must go everywhere with, no matter where, just stay in the Bible.

Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

ikechizoba:

anitapreeti:
This question was raised in my Sunday school class today as an aside (it wasn't properly discussed) I have been pondering on it.
Please can someone who has a better understanding expound on this subject for me and anyone else who cares to know with relevant Bible passages.

Thanks!

Well, from my little understanding

When we are created, God created us as spirit, reason because God is a Spirit, and God created man-Gen 1:26-28, before God formed man with a flesh to handle objects as spirits cannot handle objects. Gen 2:7

Now, the breathe made the clay to come alive, meaning, all the dealings of the soul is with the body Gen 2:7

So, the moment one dies, the spirit separates from the body, well, the soul becomes inactive until rapture, the body remains dead until its quickened for judgement, well, from my shallow understanding, well, I believe the soul will come alive during judgement

We can remember Jesus saying, do not fear him that can destroy the body, but him that can destroy the soul and the body. So I believe the soul and the body shall be destroyed, and for the Christians, our Spirit will go with our resurrected body.

John in 1 John 3:2 said, we shall be like him when he appears

Well, am still learning

orisa37:
When we die, our Spirits become the properties of The Supreme Spirit(God The Almighty) for Reuse as The Lord pleases.

You are deep

Learn spiritual warfare

I keep praying that men should come to the knowledge of the truth

We should pray always

Luke 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

ikechizoba:
exactly, and after that, l always have this pounding headache that makes me so weak..... my problem is the understanding ,l feel like I didn't pray enough after the speaking in tongues

Please meditate on Gal 2:20 bye

See Romans 8:26-27, 1 Corinthians 14:14

See also, and meditate on Acts 2:13, probably, you should picture how its like, when one is filled with wine

Mark 2:22, anyone you don't understand, get back to me.

Do you teach

Emmbanny:
thanks i am emmy by name, i will want to be hearing from holy spirit on a daily bases. cos i think i have a call to serve GOD , So How Do I Start?

Okay, am Gerald by name

Let's talk here

Daily I ask Him to teach me to hear His voice.
To know His voice.

In my case it's a warm glow.. Inside. For some reason I experience an inexplicable feeling of love and joy at once. Most times it comes unannounced. It just jumps at me. Lol. Then I just start to wave my hands and say hallelujah!

One particular day, during my morn devotion, I was praying, and lost myself....on my knees, I found my self still praying but didn't know what I was saying...didn't even hear the words but my lips wer still uttering something. But inside me It was like I was singing! But outwardly I knew I wasn't. I really can't explain it. I pray for more experiences cos you're right, sometimes during devotion, I get distracted. Then I ask the Holy Spirit to speak to me.

May the Lord make you Whole

Nbote:
I pray more now than I hav ever done... I didn't take things serious until a nairalander here sent me some scriptures to pray with and I ignored it. Strangely enough d lady who prayed with me gave me d same scriptures to read and pray with

Well, that's scriptural to pray and not faint

Oches4me:
One question I want to ask my Christian friends, is Sunday a Sabbath day or Sunday day that Christian worship.

The simplest answer to your question is, the apostles went about preaching

God seeks true worshippers(every day- John 4:23)

The church building is a place to gather and know more about God, so we can teach others 2 Tim 2:2. Matthew 28:20

God is not particular about the day of worship, give him worship everyday, everywhere - 1 Tim 2:8

Every Christian is a potential evangelist

Ask if you have more questions, I will be glad to help

I didn't really believe in most of d reactions ppl acclaim to being God's presence until I felt it myself.. Don't get me wrong I'm not d overly religious type and have always felt some of d reactions we see are exaggerated but I still felt I needed some form of Conviction or to feel it myself .. Well recently someone came to d house and told me somethings about myself and my need to draw closer to God. Strangely enough she came to d house on d day afta I finished my first ever 3days fasting and prayers which I didn't think I could achieve..
After telling me why I was going thru what I was going thru she decided to pray with myself and Sista. While we were praying she came over and held my hand and dat was wen it happened. For wateva reason I burst into tears. In less dan 2 seconds my nose was runny and my face was filled with tears. I was crying like a kid and gasping for breath. I knew something came over me and I had no control over what was happening. I couldn't even continue kneeling. I had to lie down to continue my prayers... D feeling was so intense when I thought about what had happened afta she had left I felt it all over again. Same happened d next tym she came for prayers a couple of days later

Hmmmm, I was tempted to skip your comment and Gods Spirit redirected me back

Please spend more time praying

.

ikechizoba:
mine is speaking in tongues, l can't control it, it comes with dizziness and involuntary movement of my body, , l always have this headache and pain around my head after the encounter, it happens each time l pray intensively.... my problem is that l can't say what l want from God, the tongue always takes over, l keep finding it difficult to switch over to the language l know ..l need directions

I experience the same experience as yours, always spinning and falling to the ground when a presence hit

I always wanted to speak in understanding, but I often end up speaking in tongues after I have said two or three words in prayer

Jude 1:20 says well, I believe and know you are experiencing the presence right now. I will hit you later

Vivly:
Sometimes I feel his presence when I study the word of God. Just the realization that there is a wiser being is enough.

Please pray more and ask God to reveal himself to you, 2 hours or more in prayer is good enough, at least

ScienceWatch:
Scientists say the expression. "Dont behave like a stupid monkey, points to truths about evolution.
It makes sense that that stupid ones refused to take the evolutionary step to became human.

I have proof that a microscopic Amoeba can evolve into a Strawberry tree.

I never saw that

A small cell becoming the whole world

Its called courting

Well, the presence of God came on me today while preaching in a small church, and I was silent for the short space of time

The presence of God becomes more real to us when we pray fervently, especially when you are baptised in the Holy Ghost, the presence of God is always around you.

The presence is felt by me when I start perceiving the fragrance of sweet smells- the Bible said, we are unto God, a sweet savour

Gods presence can hit you down, especially when you are receiving what is bigger than your spiritual strength

lalanice:
how many Christians open threads about atheism compared to d number of atheists who open threads jst to talk about a religion and a God they say doesn't exist?

There was a day I was forced to ignore threads on religion section as most were threads about some folks pointing accusing fingers to God

Lemme open another one

You can't wait to be in Heaven? Why, let Heaven come to you:


23 Jesus answered, “If anyone [really] loves Me, he will keep My word (teaching); and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling place with him.
John 14:23

Loooooool, I was just playing around

Originakalokalo:
You're a Bible scholar.

Thumbs up.

That passage of the Bible trips me anytime.

It was Paul.

He just tried to be modest

That is power!!!

I just love Gods presence and always wanna be there, just perceiving those beautiful fragrance

Yea, about being a bible scholar, I happen to listen wide. I can listen to messages all day, as long as you preach grace, redemption and faith, well, its correct that, without holiness, no one shall see or be righteous(right to stand- prayer)

I recently heard this while praying recently, I heard, if we say we have no sins, we deceive ourselves, do you know what I got as interpretation.

Intercession

Daniel say, Daniel 9:9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;

1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

Interpretation( well, from my level)

If we say, we shouldn't pray for the whole world to come to the knowledge of the truth and we live as though, we shouldn't intercede regularly, we deceive ourselves and the light(life) of the Son is not in us. I rest my case. I leave you to this verses sir

Luke 10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.

2 Thess 3:1 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: 2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. 3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil. 4 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you. 5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Heaven is my crush, am in love

We cannot understand all things now.

The moment we shed this body,

Our understanding will be full


Death is not bad afterall

I can't wait to start learning mysteries in Heaven

Matthew 8:11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

Paul said, he heard unlawful things

2 Corinthians 12:4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

Am having this feeling that even on earth, we can peep into the archives of heaven and with much prayer, we can establish ans build on earth, what is built in heaven
