Some replies sha...

OP, prayer is no more the key oo
It wasn't ever
God's Will is the key
Where will you find God's Will? In His Words — the Bible

Be strong for yourself, and God Will make you strong for HIM.
That kind of prayer can be rough at times (check what happened to the children of Israel after they got the meat that they complained for)
But it's all right. Take care and strive to know God's Will.
Whats gods will? Can you define it?

A lot of people here in Nairaland have met me In my shop. I had a big shop in Alakija Lagos. But due to various harsh policies I had to close down. How did I get the shop and money to stock it? Believe me it was God.
Why did my business close down? It was largely my fault I mismanaged it.
I will reply you before this year ends and show you another business I will start up not by my power but by God's grace. He has already showed me plans,I just need to work for it to be fulfilled.
So Yahweh gave you money to start a shop and watched you squander it(already knowing that you'll squander the money), but it didn't bother him?
Oh what a loving god

Just last week I was in a very difficult situation. I had no money on me. I didn't even have money to feed. On Monday Iast week I was so hungry I had to meet the woman selling close to me for credit. I bought bread and mineral and ate. Through out last week I just manage to eat once. All this while I had a refrigerator I wanted to sell,so that I can use the money to be supporting myself but nobody was pricing. Some were pricing very low. On Friday evening I was so weak due to hunger,I hadn't taken anything through out the day. I wanted to go and collect credit but I didn't want to go bcus the woman gossips a lot and had even told people I collected credit from her(I had already paid). So I just laid on the bed hungry and weak,if I try to get up,my head will just be spinning. Then I decided to pray to God to help me out. I am a Christian,I pray always,infact I was doing mid night prayers doing this period. But that particular day I decided to pray differently. I prayed like this.."God why do you delight in my suffering and shame. I pray to you but it seems nothing is working. See my friends that are into fraud they are enjoying life. Should I go and beg them. I am tired of serving you".
After I finished I just took my phone out and started watching film. About ten minutes later my phone rang and someone told me he will like to see the fridge. He came over,examined everything and paid the money. The joy in my heart was much. I rushed to the market bought beans,came back cooked and ate with a big loaf of bread,then drank three satchet of water. I felt alive again. Believe me God exist and is still working miracles
Op I want you to do an experiment. Next time you are outta luck or hapless, pray to Flying Spaghetti Monster. Keep on doing it for one week(like you did to Yahweh) and watch how Flying Spaghetti Monster would reveal himself

How can all your ways include your future that hasn't even happened yet.
Are you really asking me this 🤦🏾‍♂️
Lemme break it down. Since you're slow on the uptake.
All my ways can mean your intentions. My ways mean what I intent to do. For example, all my ways can include me sleeping, waking tomorrow morning, eating, taking a stroll etc til I die. Thats a sum total of my ways. Even my thoughts which control my ways are viewed by Yahweh (as stated clearly in those Bible verses)
Christianity EtcRe: I Masturbated While Fasting,does It Have Any Effect On My Fast? by jaephoenix(m): 11:19pm On Aug 26, 2023
drake99:
I'm on a 1 month fasting and praying,6 to 12 is for 2weeks while 6 to 6 is for 2weeks also,I just finished the 6 to 12 yesterday,2day is my free day in order to continue the second half tomorrow

I've been having temptations since I started this prayer,satan has been sending women my way in order to spoil the fasting,I kept jumping and passing,though the urge has been there because I haven't had it for a long time,to an extend that I ejaculated before waking up from sleep every morning

Now the issue is that I masturbated today which is my free day in order to reduce the tension because I'm starting a tougher one tomorrow which is 6 to 6 which will last for another 2 weeks

The question now is,has this masturbation spoiled things for me?I still have faith that everything is still intact provided that I did it on my free day or am I wrong? I know masturbation is a sin but Its better than having it with any girl because if I did I wouldn't have been here asking questions,I would've canceled the remaining 2 weeks
Yes, you're going to hell. Any other question? undecided

Hi everyone, I started crypto not too long ago and I need some news on crypto. Could you suggest a site? Thanks in advance
Is this a question or what?
A simple Google search can help you. Crypto is too huge even for OGs like me. It's like a university with faculties in NFTs, DAOs, DeFi, Mining etc. Each faculty has departments etc

So don't bring it anywhere close to the Bible because it's not found written anywhere in it. wink
Lol. You just confirmed omniscient, omnibenevolent and omnipotent are actually in the Bible. Yet you still dispute they aren't there in the bible. That's why I said you need to go back to rehab

How does knowing the outcome of our choices the same with your bolded quoted verses 🤦🏾‍♂️
God doesn't know how many kids I'm gonna give birth to. I can decide to stay unmarried or castrate myself. Or adopt a kid. God doesn't decide that for me.

The problem today is caused by us not God.

No where did God claim he knows the outcome of our choices.

You can choose to interpret the Bible anyway you want it. It doesn't matter.

What matter is that there are people with the accurate interpretation of the scripture and they are zealously using their knowledge to make the world a better place.
Its not my interpretation. Its what is written in plain ol' English(which is difficult for you JW to grasp). Pleased what do you understand by the Bible verse where the writer says Yahweh knows all their ways?
What does that particular verse mean? I mean its literal English, which is taught in Kindergarten. Does your Kingdom Hall de-educate you folks? Wtf! grin

That's completely dishonest.
Dem go argue tire lol

For example, when Satan was tempting eve and Adam, God could see what was happening but he didn't know how it would ended because of the free will he gave man. He couldn't control it. He had most likely trusted Adam to make the right choice but he was disappointed.

Yet God has the ultimate power to predict the future accurately.
He indeed has a future he's planned for us smiley smiley

Even the definition of Omniscient is not ambiguous. It's simply "having total knowledge". God has the total knowledge of the universe, how it all started, how it works, what it's made of, how long it's been existing et cetera.

That knowledge doesn't include our choices between good and bad and the outcome of our choices.
And there's nothing like destiny. Nothing is fixed.
Lol. What is the difference between 'Total knowledge' and 'total knowledge of the universe, how it all started, how it works, what it's made of, how long it's been existing et cetera'. Doesn't the word total knowledge cover everything?
At the bolded, this is simply risible. Lol. So 'total knowledge' doesnt include knowledge of our choices? Lol grin
Education is really a problem for some people.
Lets start from simple grammar. What do you understand by 'total?' grin cheesy
By the way, if you say Yahweh doesn't know our choices, what do you understand by the boldest words quoted from that your bible…

Psalm 139:1-4
O Lord, You have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
You understand my thought from afar.
You scrutinize my path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.


Psalm 44:21
Would not God find this out?
For He knows the secrets of the heart.

1 Chronicles 28:9
“As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a whole heart and a willing mind; for[b] the Lord searches all hearts, and understands every intent of the thoughts. [/b]If you seek Him, He will let you find Him; but if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever.

What those misinformed religionists concluded and wrote in the dictionary is what he wanted to use as the bases of his judgment.
Omniscient is a presumptuous term because the true God knows how everything He created works but as for what each intelligent mind will choose to do between good and evil that largely depends on the disposition of the person in question. smiley
Oh, so its theists that wrote the dictionary? Lol. MadMax you need to take your psychotic drugs. You have lost touch with reality grin

Is Yahweh omniscient?

Oga, you are right.

The funniest part is that I had said Balaam was greedy before even knowing that Jude supports, and I found Jude while putting Balaam as keyword so I could find the story (since I didn't see the exact place).
If I (anyone) could read and have this understanding on my own, then the book of Jude (amongst many other books) prove it as well, then I'm okay with myself.

For you, you are right!
When you and other theists are done dodging the truth, you would know how error strewn your Bible is

preciousee17:
Please point out what exactly I'm dodging?

Why does it look like people force themselves and pretend to be dumb?
Right from my very first comment, didn't I point out that Balaam was greedy and God saw his heart?

After you started saying so many useless accusations and misinterpretations, I referred you to the book of Jude which confirms that Balaam was greedy, or didn't you see it?
Most importantly didn't I say that, if you can't see it, then you're correct with your own point.

So why still disturbing me? Aren't you contented with being correct?
Or you just need an argument partner?
Jude said Balaam was greedy. Numbers never stated anywhere he was greedy. And he was consulting Yahweh or Yahweh was directing all his moves. So where did the greed come from? Please re-read that passage with a clear mind

Are you trying to create a new sin for uncle Balaam?
The moment I quote the book of Jude is the moment you want to cut through the bullshit?
Shea I've said that if you can't see Balaam's sin, then you're right.
You were deviating from the point. Besides I asked you Balaam's error and you dodged it. So I decided to cut through the bullshit. So answer the questions and lets move on

Check out what understanding and infinite mean in the dictionary.

If you read some couple of verses after verse 5 and before, you'd see that the psalmist was praising God for his immeasurable comprehension of creation and everything existing and he created them with his abundant strength or power. For example, he could call all the stars by name. He definitely named them himself.

God has great comprehension and endless knowledge of the universe and that makes sense since he made the universe.
Good. So he is all knowing and omniscient right? Yes or no
