Without having Jesus Christ in you, you are wasting your time.

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God- Romans 3:23.

Sin cannot make Man communicate directly to God. The only way for God to live in your Heart and connevt with you, is for us to accept his free gift of Salvation, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Anything outside this is a waste of time .... All those Buddhist and yoga doctrine of inspiration, are all against what God wants.

Acts 4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Your evidence is quotes from a book.... cheesy cheesy cheesy.

Quote me when you have proper facts to back your claims okay.

And I'm telling you that it is possible. Stop listening to lies of the Devil.

See what the Bible said;
1 Peter 1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.


Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

If it's not possible, will the Bible tell you all these? So by the grace of God, it is possible to be holy. We can be holy by doing any of these

Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.


So it depends on you, if you want to be holy or unholy. Don't project on everyone. Some people believe it is possible
So the Bible verses saying no one can be holy are lying then huh?.....thanks for the clarification.

You're grasping at straws - Poland, Finland and Sweden are not insignificant countries. Each of them of is far more "dangerous" to Russia than Poland (I put dangerous in quotes because, outside of you people's imagination, nobody wants to attack Russia. No Nato, Not USA. Not Ukraine.)

You're lying. There is no formal application to join Nato made by Zelensky and there is no document or record of a meeting in which Nato agreed to admit Ukraine. Again, your imagination is playing tricks on you.
Lol....Finland and Sweden more dangerous than Poland.....I am done arguing with you...like WTF man. cheesy .

I'm not preaching Religion to you bro.

God has no religion. Yes we need Hid divine help. All through as you rightly stated. However you can only get this divine help by following after the principles of God, and to be able to do this, the divine help one needs is only found through Jesus Christ.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

I preach Jesus Christ. Not religion.
Lol....you're preaching religion....God is in our heart and we can connect to him as we best feel.....you don't need any specific name or doctrine to connect to ur creator.
Foreign AffairsNew Iran's Missile Attacks Shows Berlin,london,paris,rome Within Range. by Mattswaggz(op): 12:19pm On Mar 22
The Islamic Republic of Iran significantly escalated its war effort against the U.S. with its launch of two intermediate-range ballistic missiles on Friday toward Diego Garcia, a key U.S.-U.K. military base in the Indian Ocean.


The targeting of Diego Garcia, roughly 2,500 miles from Iran, means Tehran’s missile capabilities appear to have exceeded previously acknowledged limits.

In the period leading up to Operation Epic Fury Feb. 28, Iran Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi claimed, "We intentionally kept the range of our missiles below 2,000 kilometers so we don’t have that capability. And we don’t want to do that because we do not have hostility against the United States people and all Europeans."

On Saturday, Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir said, "Just yesterday, Iran launched a two-stage intercontinental ballistic missile with a range of 4,000 kilometers [2,500 miles] toward an American target on the island of Diego Garcia. These missiles were not intended to hit Israel. Their range reaches the capitals of Europe — Berlin, Paris and Rome are all within direct threat range."

IDF spokesman Nadav Shoshani blasted the alleged Iranian deception on X, writing, "Just 3 days before the war, the Iranian regime said they don’t obtain long-range missiles. Today, their lies were exposed once again, when missiles were fired 4000km away from Iran. They hoped to lie their way into becoming a force that can terrorize the world. We didn’t buy it."

Foreign AffairsTwo Iranian Missiles Penetrated Israeli Air Defense On Saturday, Injuring Dozens by Mattswaggz(op): 11:32am On Mar 22
NEW: Two Iranian missiles penetrated Israeli air defense on Saturday, injuring dozens in Dimona and Arad, towns near the Dead Sea.

The strikes landed in the Negev desert near the country’s nuclear research center. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said there were no reports of damage to nuclear facilities.

Officials said interception attempts were made before the impacts, and the military is investigating how the missiles were able to get through.

Foreign AffairsTrump Gives Iran 48-hour Ultimatum To Reopen Strait Of Hormuz Or Face Strikes On by Mattswaggz(op): 11:15am On Mar 22
Trump gives Iran 48-hour ultimatum to reopen Strait of Hormuz or face strikes on power plants

President Donald Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Iran on Saturday, warning the U.S. would strike its power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened.

"If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!" Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

The president's threat represents a notable escalation in rhetoric as tensions surge over the strategically vital waterway.

Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a global choke point for oil and gas transport that supplies roughly one-fifth of the world’s crude oil, has been largely limited since early March, shortly after the war with Iran began.
Trump's post comes after he told reporters Friday that reopening the strait was a "simple military maneuver."

"It's relatively safe, but you need a lot of help in the sense of you need ships, you need volume," he said.

Only through The God of heaven and the Earth. The creator of the universe, can we have the will and power to focus on all these things you mentioned.

Man can do nothing without God. His thoughts are continually evil. And so it needs to be cleansed and separated from Pagan practices and traditions, etc, to achieve all those
Stop attaching God to religion which is a"creation and workings of men".....God didn't create any religion and yes men needs divine help to achieve all this sometimes that's why my reply clearly stated "religion" as the tool used to cast division amongst us......that division was used to start and justify different wars and weekedness.

Wrong.

That's why Jesus came . We are made Holy in his Holiness. The devil wants you to think it's not possible, hence many people will fall by the way side.

This is the worst time to be alive as a believer in God because the arrows of the devil is just too much, so as Christians it's only logical for us to put on the whole armour of Jesus Christ to be able to withstand all.

However, like you said, only a few will make it, and I am praying I'm among by God's grace
I am not religious so all this ur devil blah blah blah doesn't concern me........my point is the Bible has made it clear that no man can be holy.... simple....it isn't something to argue.

Man cannot live holy by His power. That is why We have Jesus Christ who help us as it is written in the word in John 1.12, "but as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to those that believed on his name".

Also in Matthew 19:26, "To men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible"
Still the Bible has made it clear on several occasions that no man can be really "Holy"......the only recorded man with a very high efficiency rate was moved to heaven directly (Elijah).....if I am not mistaken. undecided .

Where is the link to his application? Where is a single proof that NATO had agreed to let him in or that he was in the process of joining? And how come other countries close to Putin's Rus have joined without issues before or after Zelensky was attacked?
If you weren't following the news back then, then don't expect me to go dig it up for you..... Ukraine made their intentions of joining NATO clear back then and NATO was willing to accept them regardless of Russia concerns.

Ukraine is a very populous country with a good military,land mass,a good amount of resources and shares a large border with Russia.....other one's are small Fry's compared to Ukraine.....Apart from Poland, I don't see any major threat NATO member in that eastern Europe to Russia and had Ukraine joined they would've been a much bigger threat to Russia than Poland.
Christianity EtcRe: St. Francis Teaches Us That To Obey Christ Is Sometimes To Disobey The Church by Mattswaggz: 10:39am On Mar 22
Christ taught a righteous form of living and a way of life that can achieve peace globally but if all his adherent should follow his teaches wholeheartedly then they may well be exponged from this world because peace in this world can only be achieved through strength.

Also the church is more like an organization that can as well be used as a political tool while Christ teaches following the Lord in truth and in spirit wholeheartedly..... anyone who wants to achieve this will likely suffer as they could always find themselves wanting either by their very families,the government and the world at large.......all in all, the kind of life Christ thought isn't for the realities of this world so the church needs to regulate some of those teachings and even individuals as well regulate which ones they follow.

Christianity as a religion,does not turn people into fraudsters and what have you,rather ,it aims to bring people back to God by making them turn from their sinful ways but all the same,there are people who chose to remain fraudsters and all that you mentioned yet are seriously attending churches and pretending to be Christians.
There's a big world of difference between being a Follower of Christ and a Church goer.

If you judge people's behaviors based on the belief systems they identify with then Christians shouldn't be an exception.....double standards isn't accepted here.

I understand if a fake SMS alert displays a false balance. But a bank’s mobile app displaying a false balance is leaving stunned!
All this things they're saying are most likely lies which generated from hearsays......any transaction confirmed by your bank app is legit.....this format works with SMS alert mostly. Except if they're talking about a business transaction that occurred with bank CHEQUE as payment method.....I don't know if it happens exactly or similar to the way they described but there is a way people scam business owners with that method of payment.
