Faith gives us confidence to hope for what God has promised us, because faith is obedience to God who cannot lie, who cannot change his mind and who cannot fail. Great faith is realizing that compared our brother and Lord Jesus Christ, we are his servants, Lord, I am not worthy to have you come into my home. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed! Faith comes from humility to completely submit to God our Father the sovereign YHVH I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in Jesus will do what he was been doing. They will do even greater things than these, because Jesus is with the Father. And what did Jesus do, he obeyed and submitted and God worked through him. Should I speak of the begger who kept pleasing till he was heard and healed, because with faith we can cast out demons and mountains of obstacles. With faith we overcome storms and trust that with God our lives are secured. With faith we believe even though we have not yet seen, we obey even though we are yet to be rewarded. With faith we overcome fear and worry, with faith we please God and love God absolutely, with faith we become responsible and righteous with the things of God. For from faith in God comes out righteousness and deliverance |
Let us not forget it is God that gives us the strength to make wealth 😊 👍 |
jaephoenix:you all are funny, you care more about a baby that isn't yours but her than you care about the souls who will enter a permanent uncomfortable situation. Question would ANY of you if you saw her offer to help her adjust or carry the baby out of your wonderful care of how comfortable the baby should be |
Krismas:if you built a house and it got infested and you remove every good and valuable thing from it, would you not burn it down and build a better place for what you value. The one who created the earth you live in, is going to remove it, then he who owns it tells you to leave it but you refuse, don't you think you have a problem. You are talking about gullible people, what do you think you own in this world. Go ahead and tell us, so that the day you leave this world you will leave with it as well, after all it's yours is not. They are gullible but you are wise, o wise one share your wisdom with us. I agree religion is used by the devil to destroy people or prevent people like you from even seeking the truth, but you think you're better than those gullible ones and you dont see yourself as gullible as well. They told you this is all there is to life and you yourself believe it, without proof, well did you ever argue why your name is your name or ever wondered if the certificate of your birth is fake, why because there was no reason to doubt, you completely trusted those who told you. Here you are calling others gullible when you don't have 100% complete proof that what you have accepted of yourself is actually true, but you still believe it, why, because you need to. Now in your own imagination told you both places are connected and you believe, in your words, obviously, but you are not gullible. Do you have proof that they are connected because they are from some theory you mentioned |
Those who have faith overcome obstacles to reach Jesus Christ, son of the living God Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a sleeping mat. They tried to push through the crowd to Jesus, but they couldn't reach him. So they went up to the roof, took off some tiles, and lowered the sick man down into the crowd, still on his mat, right in front of Jesus. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the man, "Son, your sins are forgiven." Among the crowds pressing on Jesus a woman with a 12yr menstrual flow who is considered unclean by the law saw a crowd surround her only path to help and thought, "If I can just touch his robe, I will be healed." As she tried to sneak away with her healing she heard what Jesus said and realized that Jesus knew, she began to tremble and fell to her knees before him. The whole crowd heard her explain why she had touched him and that she had been immediately healed. But instead of a rebuke she heard "Daughter," he said to her, "your faith has made you well. Go in peace." A Gentile woman came to Jesus, pleading, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! For my daughter has a demon in her, and it is severely tormenting her." But first Jesus gave her no reply--not even a word. And Then his disciples urged him to send her away. "Tell her to leave," they said. But she didn't give up and they said "She is bothering us with all her begging." Then Jesus answered her, "I was not sent to you the Gentiles." He didn't answer me, his disciples wanted to kick me away and now he says he wasn't sent to me, no my daughter can't continue to suffer because I am a gentile, so she came and worshiped him and pleaded again, "Lord, help me!" But it wasn't enough Jesus replied to her humility and plea "It isn't right to take food from the children and throw it to the dogs," "Yes, Lord," she replied, "but even dogs are permitted to eat crumbs that fall beneath their master's table." "Woman, Good answer!" Jesus said to her, "your faith is great. Your request is granted." And her daughter was instantly healed. She believed in God goodness even if God didn't send the savior to the gentleness, even if the Messiah ignored her, even if the disciples didn't want her, she refused to be discouraged, even when seen as a dog despite her worship to the lamb of God and accepting him as Lord. Her faith made her stay and wait, her faith made her persevere even though the testful word were painful. She did not relent and remained. Faith doesn't care about the laws of moses or the religions of men, faith doesn't care about the circumstances or the humiliation involved, faith is focused fully focused on believing that God is good and He will do good to me, He will forgive me, He will help me, He will save me, no rule can stop God, no law can, no one can. There is nothing impossible for God to do even things we don't deserve God can let us have them because He is merciful and kind. |
Brenbentondiaz:it's just sad but I have to keep doing what I have been sent to do |
Krismas:so you believe both sides are connected? |
The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!" "We need more faith; tell us how to get it." And the Lord answered, If you had faith(trust and confidence in God) even [so small] like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, Be pulled up by the roots, and be planted in the sea, and it would obey you. If you obey God other things would obey you in obedience to God. Be it in small things or in big things. But faith is never about what you want but what you are told to do "When a servant comes in from plowing or taking care of sheep, he doesn't just sit down and eat. He must first prepare his master's meal and serve him his supper before eating his own. And the servant is not even thanked, because he is merely doing what he is supposed to do. In the same way, when you obey me you should say, 'We are not worthy of praise. We are servants who have simply done our duty.'" So faith comes from listening to the message and commands from Christ. |
For when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. These trials are only to test your faith, to show that it is strong and pure. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--and your faith is far more precious to God than mere gold. So if your faith remains strong after being tried by fiery trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. Take a firm stand against the devil, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are. If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all. For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ. |
What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. All of these people we have mentioned who had faith and acted received God's approval because of their faith, yet none of them received ALL that God had promised. For God had far better things in mind for us that would also benefit them, for they can't receive the prize at the end of the race until we finish the race. But while waiting they believed and obeyed So you see, it isn't enough just to have faith. Faith that doesn't show itself by good deeds is no faith at all--it is dead and useless. You see, Abraham was trusting God so much that he was willing to do whatever God told him to do. His faith was made complete by what he did--by his actions. So you see, we are made right with God by what we do, not by faith alone. Rahab the prostitute is another example of this. She was made right with God by her actions--when she hid those messengers and sent them safely away by a different road. Just as the body is dead without a spirit, so also faith is dead without good deeds. It was by faith that Rahab the prostitute did not die with all the others in her city who refused to obey God. For she had given a friendly welcome to the spies. It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and go to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going. It was by faith that Abraham offered Isaac as a sacrifice when God was testing him. Abraham, who had received God's promises, was ready to sacrifice his only son, Isaac,... |
DarkJeddi:just look at you assuming that I assume. Do you have proof that I ever assumed to know everything. Unlike you this is actually proof that you are assuming. Except you are not referring to me but to religious people of which I am not. By the way can you even proof those religions claim to know everything. Here you actually write something, "If you claimed the existence of souls,then it's within the purview of science to research on such.." you are funny, at least you didn't write they researched and disproved, I won't question why they research it since I am not them and I do not know. But you should at least read up on their research or have you? Or you don't seek knowledge and proof anymore. I never asked you to swallow anything no questions asked Infact let me share something with you 1 John:4 [1] Dearly loved friends, [b]don’t always believe everything you hear just because someone says it is a message from God: test it first to see if it really is. [/b]For there are many false teachers around, So don't think children of God are gullible to just believe anything, many of them have actually heard God's voice. I will repeat it again, leave hell alone, there are more important things to look for proof for. I am glad you said you don't need anything to be a good person that doesn't change that God rewards those who are good. Well maybe if God gives you your reward at that time, you can tell him you don't need it and you don't want to exist anymore. It's your choice. It doesn't change the fact that judgement and justice exists. Look all this one you are typing, God knows your heart more than you do, if He is going to save you will you tell Him o please let me perish forever. Or do you like death or something |
1 John 4 the Living Bible [1] Dearly loved friends, don’t always believe everything you hear just because someone says it is a message from God: test it first to see if it really is. For there are many false teachers around, [2] and the way to find out if their message is from the Holy Spirit is to ask: Does it really agree that Jesus Christ, God’s Son, actually became man with a human body? If so, then the message is from God. [3] If not, the message is not from God but from one who is against Christ, like the Antichrist you have heard about who is going to come, and his attitude of enmity against Christ is already abroad in the world. [4] Dear young friends, you belong to God and have already won your fight with those who are against Christ because there is someone in your hearts who is stronger than any evil teacher in this wicked world. [5] These men belong to this world, so, quite naturally, they are concerned about worldly affairs and the world pays attention to them. [6] But we are children of God; that is why only those who have walked and talked with God will listen to us. Others won’t. That is another way to know whether a message is really from God; for if it is, the world won’t listen to it. ![]() |
Uchesis:I will? Didn't know I could? |
DarkJeddi:I didn't say they were not, but how can you be tormented by a dream even though your physical body is comfortably sleeping. They have "explanation" for a lot of things but very few solutions to anything. You call it supernatural weird and comfort yourself with their "explanation" you can go ahead with your life and not disturb yourself that "it is just a mere reoccurring dream" that doesn't affect your physical life. They also have explanations for coma, brain dead, and for some reason they study and investigate the existence of the soul. Why would they whom you claim to listen to try to understand the very things you call "supernatural weird stuff" You deceive yourself first by denying what you experience and if you can do that then will you even believe what is real if it causes you the same discomfort. Honestly like I said initially the existence of hell shouldn't be a disturbance to any good person honestly. Like do you go about your daily life as "an upright citizen" being afraid or scared of prison. If it exists what can you do about it If it doesn't would that make you feel free to be wicked Or are you looking to make a contract with hell. Concern yourself more with if heaven is real or not, if those who do good would be rewarded |

DarkJeddi:why did you ignore the part of nightmares? |
DarkJeddi:rambling? Are you the one I quoted? Did you read what I responded to, "Because the very idea of hell is unrealistic..." was he asking for proof? You call something crazy but are you being sensible? Have you already asked me for proof which I have responded to you, but now this nonsense attack you are generalizing and quoting me for. Did that post attempt or try to prove hell is real? If you think we are crazy why are you now talking to crazy people, if you are don't think others are as well. Please respect yourself and don't come referring to people as crazy that's not what sane mature respectable people do |
DarkJeddi:it's not a threat that you die, is it. Don't assume what I preach if you don't listen to me. Do you even know that hell will be destroyed in lake of fire. I tell you to flee God's wrath and coming judgement, repent and do what is right, seek the kingdom of God and receive the gift of God, the Holy Spirit our assurance for eternal life. You want proof there is hell then go there through death. You think justice began with humans, do you see justice among animals? You want a physical picture of a place you don't go with your physical body. Do you know what a nightmare is, when a person who is asleep on a fine soft bed yet they find themselves tormented somewhere else. A beautiful grave will not comfort a soul in hell |
2Tim.4.3 - For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to right teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever they want to hear. (4)- They will reject the truth and follow strange myths. 2 Timothy:3 You may as well know this too, Timothy, that in the last days it is going to be very difficult to be a Christian. For people will love only themselves and their money; they will be proud and boastful, sneering at God,... |
Matt.23.15 - Yes, how terrible it will be for you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. For you cross land and sea to make one convert, and then you turn him into twice the son of hell as you yourselves are. Matt.23.33 - Snakes! Sons of vipers! How will you escape the judgment of hell? Whoever converted you, and into whatever you were converted into if they were of the devil you had better run to God now before you end up in hell where they are heading |
You call your selfs followers of Christ yet what do you follow Christ to do? I prefer to follow the true Christ, Jesus of Nazareth the son of God who isn't a god who worshipped the one true God, I prefer to follow him and worship our Father and our God. |
Tetraozonaitera:The christ you call God is falsechrist the antichrist. Churches worshipping trinity instead of YHVH are churches of the devil, with signs and wonders to lead you to hell. These are like the gates of hell |

That fake cease-fire, but some are stubborn even at death's door |
Amotolongbo:okay o spectrometer |
Zooposki:he is a servant of the devil, he and all those he fathers and call him father. All this false anointed ones, fake men of God serving their own belles and bodies instead of God |
thesicilian:like what does pastor Chris need a jet for, worth billions in naira. It's like say we don't care about the poor but our selves |
Amotolongbo:the baby was well wrapped and she didn't speak English. You obviously didn't watch the video 😁👍 |
