darlingtonNYIG: you are really making points but my questions still goes towards a predetermined future. Someone mentioned the point of God knowing each persons strength and weakness but is he not the one that assign the strength and weakness? Why should an unborn child's inheritance be determined by his anticipated attitude? I tell you He is a God that creates some weak, some Strong even tho many would disagree with this because He told them in his word that He's good and everything He creates is good. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Is God Partial; Thoughts From The Jacob And Esau Biblical Story by iamdrfresh: 3:42am On May 07, 2017 |
darlingtonNYIG: This morning I woke to meditate on the Jacob and Esau bible story and I am caught in the belief that some are born blessed despite their inequities while others need to work out their brains to be successful in life. A close examination of the lives of these biblical men exposes the inequality when it comes to the blessings from God (my opinion). Jacob never really worked hard for anything rather he deceptively gained the blessing of Isaac and the birthright of Esau (some will see it as being smart) while Esau toiled to be successful without any spiritual providence working on his behalf. Jacob actions never drew any wrath from God rather he progressed to the extent the present Jewish nation are direct descendant of his twelve children whereas that of Esau who to my understanding are scattered around the middle east without any clear account of their present abode in today's history.
My questions now are;
Does this mean some people aren't blessed at all and have no inheritance from God and for them make any progress, they must work hard and suffer deep?
Is this why many complain that despite their fervent prayers, goodwill and hard work things are still difficult for them whereas, some people don't even pray or put much effort but keep achieving success?
Is it right for God to predetermine our being before we are born by giving some better opportunities to be successful through his blessings and others less opportunities to success leaving them with no other option than to toil the earth to make sense of their lives
With these questions above, is one right to assume being successful isn't the amount of prayers done or amount of hard work put but if your being have a predetermined blessing from God and that God have already decided whom to bless and who not to bless despite how we pray or work hard ?
Remember in Genesis 25 verse 23 the Lord answered Rebecca that in her are two nations who will rival each other with one being stronger than the other and the older will serve the younger. Here, God has decided that despite Esau's strength, he will still serve Jacob.
NOTE; this is my meditation, it will make more sense to me if the bible enthusiast of Nairaland family can help me make more sense to why some individuals possess more grace than others and some seem not to have grace at all. Thank you a lot of people would try so hard to defend it but the truth is He's biased at times... Right from the womb, he knew what Esau would become(or perhaps he orchestrated it). maybe WAP is right... We're nothing but pencils in his hand. Whatever He wills, He does and I suppose nothing happens without his permission! |

Christianity Etc › Re: Is The Rise Of Atheism In Nigeria A Direct Reaction To Flaws Of Pentecostalism? by iamdrfresh: 7:55am On Apr 23, 2017 |
To some, it's due to flaws of pentecostalism.
But to most, it's because they started thinking outside d box. They reasoned beyond religion which is what most of us don't do prolly for fear of losing faith in God.
Deep down we all have questions that need answers. Questions that if given more thought would draw us away from God. But we don't wanna be drawn away, the teachings we had about Him while growing up have found their ways to our subconscious.
The moment we see beyond that, d moment we begin to doubt and subsequently tend towards becoming an atheist! |

Christianity Etc › Why We Wave Our Hands To God by iamdrfresh(op): 1:15pm On Apr 16, 2017 |
I guess this is not new to anyone in any church denomination. It never really occurred to me until today when the pastor said "Wave your hands to the King of kings, Bless Him!!!"
Is it biblical or one of those things we do out of emotions?
Also can we bless God? I think d Bible says "the less is blessed of the greater"
These are sincere questions.. Don't add unnecessary meanings to them pls!!! |

Health › What's There About Anti Retroviral Drug(arv)? by iamdrfresh(op): 12:09pm On Jan 30, 2017 |
Never been a fan of series but a particular one caught my attention recently- SHUGA.
I previewed one of the episodes where Tiwa's son was with his Anti retroviral(ARV) drug in d dressing room and a fellow teammate saw it thinking it's a Performance Enhancing Drug(PED) so he passed it to other players there..
They decided they'd also take it cuz they felt it'd boost their performance until that guy told them it's ARV and that he's HIV positive. The rest of the story, you don't need it.
My question is "What happens when an HIV negative person takes Anti retroviral drug?" |

firstking01: Such christians don't exist...i mean with those attributes you mentioned because, heb 10:25 says, do not forsake the assembling of the brethen...when you forsake or forsook the assembling of the brethren which is the church, you have sinned already, and you knw the implications of sin. baba chill oo... A Bible believing christian will never decide not to attend any church service but the fact that he doesn't attend doesn't make him a sinner. Heb10:24-25 24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. You'd notice that it's basically so that believers would encourage themselves.. Just as iron sharpens iron...There are times when u feel down and going to church helps uplift your spirit. Stop quoting scriptures out of context pls!! |

Honestly, I don't know the kind of church you guys go. But it doesn't stop you from finding a bible believing church where they dwell on d undiluted word of God and not tithes and offering! |

Dongorgon5: Religion is a big time scam That's why I stopped going to church. that's why you gotta stop practising religion. Get a lifestyle. Unless you believe Christ and/or d Bible are/is a scam, you have no reason not to be among family of saints. Practising Jesus' lifestyle is what Christianity is all about and not observing religious rites. |
