Lukgaf: Have you ever looked at your past and thought:
“I have done too much. How can Allah ever forgive me?”
Maybe it is a sin you have committed repeatedly.
Maybe it is something you are deeply ashamed of.
Maybe you have been away from Allah for years.
Whatever it is, do not allow your sins to make you despair of Allah's mercy.
Allah says:
«“Say: O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins.” Qur’an 39:53»
Look at the story the Prophet ﷺ told us.
There was a man who had killed 100 people.
He eventually realised the seriousness of what he had done and began searching for a way to repent.
He first asked a worshipper, who told him that there was no repentance for him. The man then killed him too.
But he did not give up.
He found a knowledgeable man and asked whether there was a way back to Allah.
The scholar told him:
“Who can come between you and repentance?”
He then advised him to leave his evil environment and go to a place where righteous people worshipped Allah.
The man sincerely set out.
But before reaching his destination, death overtook him.
The angels of mercy and the angels of punishment disputed concerning him. Allah ultimately caused him to be counted among the people of the righteous land he was travelling towards.
The Prophet ﷺ narrated this story in Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī and Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim.
What do we learn from this?
First, no sin should make you give up on Allah's mercy.
But this does not mean that sins are insignificant or that serious crimes can simply be excused by saying, “Allah will forgive me.”
The man had to recognise his wrongdoing, sincerely repent, leave his evil environment and turn towards righteousness.
Second, sincere tawbah requires action.
If a person genuinely wants to change, they must take steps away from what keeps pulling them back into sin.
Third, never tell someone that they are beyond Allah's mercy.
You don't know what Allah may do with a person's heart tomorrow.
The person you see as hopeless today may sincerely repent tomorrow and become closer to Allah than you ever imagined.
And finally, don't postpone tawbah.
The man in this story died while travelling towards repentance.
He had not yet reached his destination.
But Allah knew the direction of his heart.
So if you have sinned, return to Allah today.
Don't wait until you become perfect.
Don't wait until Ramadan.
Don't wait until old age.
Don't wait until your life becomes easier.
Turn back to Allah now.
Your past may be long.
Your sins may be many.
But Allah's mercy is greater.
May Allah forgive our sins, accept our sincere tawbah, help us leave whatever displeases Him, and allow us to meet Him with a heart that has truly returned to Him.
Sorry but only God can forgive sins, allah cant.

Bottom line Gaza belongs to the Jews and nothing the religion of peace can do about it.
The bible says it belongs to Israel.
The quoran says it belongs to Israel
1Yet in the quoran, Palestine is not mentioned once ! If the land belongs to Palestine it would be mentioned in the quoran
Israel that is mentioned many times by God in the Bible. Israel mentioned many times by allah in the Quoran.
2 The God of the Bible states clearly the land belongs to Jews.
Gen 15:18 KJV In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
Again allah too in the quoran states that the land belongs to the Jews
Surah 5 (20)And (remember) when Moses said unto his people: O my people! Remember Allah's favour unto you, how He placed among you prophets, and He made you kings, and gave you that (which) He gave not to any (other) of (His) creatures. (21) O my people! Go into the holy land which Allah hath ordained for you. Turn not in flight, for surely ye turn back as losers: (22) They said: O Moses! Lo! a giant people (dwell) therein and lo! we go not in till they go forth from thence. When they go forth from thence, then we will enter (not till then).
So with both God & allah saying the land belongs to the jews, why are hamas calling for the destruction of Israel?[/quote]
obonujoker: Any Culture or tradition, that does not glorify God is already satanic and immoral.
As Christians, true children of God, we are to separate ourselves from such practices - 2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
You cannot call yourself a Christian and you do Masquerade, you do Ifa, you do New yam festival, You do Amadioha , You do Ogun, you do Ojude Oba, You do Raping culture festivals... You may not attend but you sponsor and support with you money...
As a child of God, A Christian, going to church with Bible, you must choose one, whether you follow God or follow the traditions of men inspired by the devil and His agents. See what Apostle Paul wrote about his own- Galatians 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. 1:15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,
God had to separate him from all those traditions.
Remember the day you accepted Jesus, is the Day you decide to follow Him and do the will of God. May the Lord help us
And if you are still blinded by traditions and Cultures, Remember none of them can connect you to God. Jesus has paid the final price. Anything outside Jesus Christ leads you to damnation.
