I agree with you. You see, God is not tied to religion. GOD is a force, your faith or beliefs does not affect or change the principle of God. The only thing our faith or beliefs would change is us.

What counts in making heaven is the works of our hands.

When I said God, I did not tie it down to any religion did I? So what is "your God" you are talking about?

delishpot:
Sorry bros. But I believe there is a divine force. The Creator and law that guides the universe. I believe all it takes is faith in that force to lead you to your destiny.
See, this situation you are in now, do not let it get you down too much. Keep faith. Tell your spirit that you believe there is a divine force that guides you and it is working for your good. Surprising thing with God/ Creator spirit is that it surprises us. Where you are looking at for help may not be where God would use to help you. Just keep an open heart. Try to live life the best way you can in your situation.
Wishing you the best.

MisterGrace:
For over 20 years, I have been praying for and against things.
Yet bad things keeps happening anyways.

Like job loss a day after wedding and non till date.

Trying to be self sufficient with my skills but things are stiff.

I have done sacrificial offerings, fasting, seed sowing, praises, prayers all the time, but he is too powerless to act.

If it's the devil that is responsible for these bad stuffs, why can't destroy it or them so that I can concentrate on worshipping him.

Obviously prayers doesn't work or except to some other powers that I'm yet to discover.

But right now, God does not exist and if he does, he has no power and if he's got some power, maybe he is bias or selfish or he does not care about some people.

There is a mad man here. Who can help?

Julian08:
Just what kind of evidence can we all agree on to be a good evidence for the existence of a god? (This question is particularly for the atheist on here.)

Whether it is a voice coming to you in your sleep (or perhaps when you are awake), a figure showing up in the sky and declaring 'itself' a god; Is it not subject to your own interpretation?

ColdHardTruth:
We have great, incredibly open discussions and I feel his honest love for myself and my family. This helps a great deal considering my wife and kids (and myself) still attend the local congregation (called a “ward” in Mormonism) often. I have no horror stories to tell about local leadership like some others do. They have been loving and supportive.

I was incredibly happy before I was a Mormon. I was a very happy person when I was a Mormon. I am very happy now. My conclusions are different, but I am the same person throughout my different perspectives on life. Some people become quite bitter after they leave a faith. I honestly loved being Mormon, but I believe I have better information and understanding now than when I was a Mormon. That personal, better understanding and information has led to a different conclusion. While I surely disagree with some beliefs (and approaches when it comes to being honest about the church’s history) in the Mormon faith, now I hold no hard feelings against the church. I think the church is a collection of people doing their best with the information they have (they likely think the same of me!). My experience in Mormonism was so positive. But that positive experience hasn’t stopped when I stopped believing. Life is just as rewarding, exciting and meaningful now.

Many people who leave Mormonism are bitter towards the church. I have found a great sense of community amongst other people who have left the faith but lack the bitterness. We discuss philosophical questions, Mormonism and our newfound perspective on it and just life in general. It is a great community.

Changing our foundational beliefs about how the world works and how to make sense of it can be difficult. There is a feeling of loss that comes when you change something so drastic concerning your world view. But life is full of wonder and beauty. You just need to find what makes you fulfilled and happy. For me it is my wife, family, discovering new truths and serving others to reduce the suffering in the world. Those things have stayed constant despite my apostasy. I find great happiness in them.

I tell you

but he still doesn't get it

Since you clam to own a website then help its ranking by being truthful and not the crap of lies you enjoy throwing around

I have shown you via the screengrab 4 words...2 in greek and 2 in hebrew which means different kinds of wine be they alcoholic or non alcoholic but when being translated into English the only English word used is WINE but from the origin they are differentiated in context.

You guys should learn a thing or 2 about Bible concordance before jumping around with lies

hopefulLandlord:
I tell you

that 4evergod guy just confidently spill crhap and calls anyone who doesn't subscribe to his bullsheeet "dense"

can you see how his points switched from
"There's no fermented grape for my Jewish carpenter to use"
TO
"it was Greek translation to English"?

he talks with two mouths so I don't know which one to slap first

plaetton:
Lol.
I think that since May 29th 2015, Nigerians may have woken in an alternate universe where everything, every known law of economic management seem to be upside down.
For example, after winning a historic election, the newly elected leader, rather than attempt to unify the country, opted to divide the country into 95 percenters and 5 presenters.

Rather than quickly assemble a team to hit the ground running from day one, he runs a sole administration for 5 months without ministers.

Rather than present a budget that encapsulates his economic vision, he presents a copy and paste, inflate and pad budget that actually encapsulates his LACK of VISION.

And for first time perhaps in modern history, we see a government almost double it's budget at a time when it's primary source of revenue is down 70℅.
If that was Not pure Voodoo, I don't know what is.

He talks diversification while the information ministry gets a budget bigger than agriculture and labour ministries combined.

He shops for loans to fund the budget while still promising welfare payments to 1 million ghost people.

The finance minister tells us that the budget cannot be fully implemented, and then the next day, the government goes to the Parliament for a supplementary Budget.

We hear that budget is being successfully implemented, but NOT a single CAPITAL project has taken off.

Rather than prune the civil service for efficiency and more productivity, the government is promising to hire hundreds of thousands of more civil servants, while still shopping for loans.

After announcing that they are shopping for a record- setting $30b loan, with no economic blueprint attached, this government is announcing a planned increase in workers salaries.

Basically , this government is mortgaging the future generations of Nigerians just to do political PATCH PATCH jobs of today.
What a monumental tragedy.

I wish this 1and half year trip to the Alternate Reality is just a bad dream that we can all happily wake up from soon.

plaetton:
More like stupid woman.

There is No assurance that the so-called ex loves or would even marry her, otherwise he wouldn't have gone AWOL in first place.

allanphash7:

4everGod:
The wine which came from the water Jesus turned was not alcoholic.

For wine to be alcoholic the grapes must have been fermented and Jesus did not need grapes for the miracle all he needed was water so where did the alcoholic content come from?

NO GRAPES...NO FERMENTATION....MEANS NO ALCOHOLIC CONTENT.

Read and read and read some more so knowledge would hit you square in the face?

allanphash7:

Nigeria ladies/ girls sees relationship to be source of income


Nigeria ladies doesnt believe that love is give and give and not give and take

6.Dionysus

https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/baby-dionysus-reni.jpg-tm.jpg?zoom=2&resize=269%2C350

Dionysus was born of a virgin on December 25 and, as the Holy Child, was placed in a manger. He was a traveling teacher who performed miracles. He “rode in a triumphal procession on an ass.” He was a sacred king killed and eaten in an eucharistic ritual for fecundity and purification. Dionysus rose from the dead on March 25. He was the God of the Vine, and turned water into wine. He was called “King of Kings” and “God of Gods.” He was considered the “Only Begotten Son,” Savior,” “Redeemer,” “Sin Bearer,” Anointed One,” and the “Alpha and Omega.” He was identified with the Ram or Lamb. His sacrificial title of “Dendrites” or “Young Man of the Tree” intimates he was hung on a tree or crucified.

You are welcome oo. But be quick, as I intend to relocate to Nigeria in the next 5 to 10 years for some time.

Cheers.

LoJ:
I am not a Nigerian. I do not even live in Africa. I am bemused and astonished by the way Igbos are regarded and treated in this forum, and in the nigerian politics. I always ask my dear friend Johnydon22, if this enmity reflects in the real life of nigerians.

How can this be? Why would a region with such huge potential and proud people, be completely marginalized, under the monitoring - and sometimes pleasure - of other tribes? I am completely amazed.

I understand there was an attempt to secede from Nigeria and form Biafra. Is it the reason for such hatred and marginalization? In Germany where I live, and many other european countries, there are regions who want(ed) to secede. it has never led to such pitiless horrible tribalistic policy against those regions. Whether it is Scotland, Bayern, Catalogne, L'ile de corse (in France) and so many others. I have lived in several european and african countries. In ALL of them they were always groups and tribes who at some point in time wanted to secede. But I have never witnessed, such systematic organised marginalization of those groups, under the watch of the rest of the population.

Worst still, Igbos, as I perceive it, are neither welcomed to stay in Nigeria, nor allowed to to go away and have their Biafra. What nonsense is that? It has gotten to the point, even igboic tribes are fighting here to claim they are not igbos, as if being Igbo is a curse...
Even people who I somehow admire, like my Chief Sukkot, are day in day out insulting the tribe...

I know Igbos have their flaws. But what on earth could justify such common behavior? I think, the igbo problem, is the single problem between Nigeria and Greatness.

I am not a nigerian, nor am I a specialist of nigeria. But i have been in Nairaland for a very long time, and I silently scrutinize most trending threads almost every day since 2010 (reading is my forte).

Please Plaetton, Hahn, Sonofluc1fer, stephenmorris, jackbizzle, Bigfrancis21, Johnydon22, Hardmirror, Benodic, Sarassin, Deepsight, Mrpresident and others, do enlighten me.

Greetings

The are both exhibiting behaviours that are not christ-like according to what the oP confirmed .. They should be punished.

McSterling:
Crusade upon crusade, yet social vices rage and crime increases. If thousands really do become better people by conversion to Christ at these crusades, over the years, shouldn't we be seeing the positive social and economic effects? Don't these pastors think about this?

winner01:
lol, I know.

You wanna know we have more atheists in Naija. Sample 10 touts, scums, prostitutes, assasins, robbers etc.

Sit them down and attempt to preach Jesus to them.

Make sure you go with an escort though

As for islamic bombs, the world is dealing with that. I just hope your bigotry does not graduate into bombs.
