The story is bull shit. But it has some true messages in it....like the one I quoted.

sonmvayina:

Can such people teach children virtue?

geoworldedu:
People I know like security family men,

Sorry i thought you are the one needing help.

Antichristian2:
Salvation from their sins!
They were saved from their sins at that instant. If not they would have perished like Sodom!

NO!
They were pardoned so they can continue living has nothing to do with salvation.
Salvation is approval to live forever!

To earn ₦70,000 per month means you're just starting or newly employed so the first thing you need is job security which includes guarantee that you have gotten a fine job with the prospect of increment sooner as your employer see the potential in you, he or she will love to keep you around for as long as you're fit for the job and the first thing is thinking about what could make you leave his or her job for another well paying job. This requires effort on your part as you make yourself indispensable for your employer doing so with respect and diligence.
You shouldn't think of how to spend the money first because that's inevitable but instead start thinking of how to widen your horizon as per what other things you can do to earn more.
Work on the time spent in serving your present employer while you give your best when you are at work.
Think of investing: this includes how you seize opportunities that comes your way as you make yourself marketable to all employers out there.
Change your eating habit by taking one good meal each day while you manage (fast) as you skip the boycottable ones, this will help your body to maintain fine shape while you are on the lookout for better chances.
Don't gamble with your money: gambling renders you useless as you won't think of how to invest the little time and resources you have but hoping to start big while the chances never comes.
Choose wisely when thinking of a life partner who can see the future in you that others are blind to.
Finally stop blaming others for your own failures because that will hinder you from seeing what you can do with every disappointment which often has chances of blessings.
Many people earn less than ₦70,000 monthly today but with what i told you they are seeing a bright future as they keep on seeking chances of making the best use of what they are able to lay their hands on.
You are not a failure unless you give up on yourself.

Deadi bodi don get accident!

sonmvayina:
Have I ever told you I don't. I quoted them the other time didn't I?
"The kingdom of God is within you" which is a fact.

So you can still gain something tangible from what you called "BULLSHIT"

sonmvayina:
Thank you. They are all bull shit.

If you are not injured yet you are feeling pain then it's either as a result of internal imbalance or it's emotional so all you need to do is make your lifestyle as simple as possible and seek chances of recreational activities.
Riches doesn't guarantee happiness as bliss in itself is not what you can buy it comes naturally as you open the door for it!

Great thread!

Truthseeker10:
😂😂😂which village story is fake? Is it your own?

His Jewish landlord has damaged his brain!

Ken4Christ:
It's not about translation.

If you're not interested in what Hades and Sheol really mean then i'm also not interested in your delusion!

sonmvayina:
Life is a school.
The first teacher we encounter is our parents, then grand parents....then teachers in school and the environment.
As you parents starts instilling good values by teaching you what's good and bad, your spirit will put it in proper perspective in a way it will become part of you...

Do you think armed robbers, hired killers, fraudsters and other evildoers don't have children?

sonmvayina:
Why not...if the information will be beneficial to my life.

That's it so learn from the gospel writers!

sonmvayina:
The spirit will make you make sense of it.

So it's the spirit that will help you make sense of what you were told or the spirit will tell you what to do?

sonmvayina:
You are not even following at all.
Who is more knowledgeable?
Ola Rotimi who wrote "the gods are not to blame"
Or Adewale a character in the book?
Jesus is a character in the gospel stories. It is the author who wrote it that is enlighten and made his character in his book make some true statements....
Are you following now?

We are saying the same thing nah!

You want to learn from Ola Rotimi not Odewale so can you now learn from the gospel writers too?

sonmvayina:
God gave his laws to his first creations who passed it along by word of mouth.
Ezra was literate enough to put it on a scroll. More than a thousand years prior, there was the code of Hamaruppi etc.

OK it was passed from mouth to mouth by people who first walked this planet or it's the spirit of God in you that is teaching you?

sonmvayina:
Not him. The story is fiction.
The authors might put some truth in his mouth. That is what I am taking. It is the author that is knowledgeable not the character in the story.

OK so the author is knowledgeable but the character makes no sense to you shey?
No wahala, my question is are you ready to learn from the gospel writers?

sonmvayina:
Ode
I said God gave his laws to every body.

Please is it given to everybody or ancestors taught their children?

sonmvayina:
Jesus and Okonkwo fall in the same category. They are both characters in a fictional book. Only a fool will worship the character in a fictional story.

So can you now accept the story of Jesus and start learning from what the Bible say about him?

Gabrielshow24:
"to first know Jesus and his Father"

This is really funny because people can claim they know Jesus so you have no clue on how to identify true believers you're just arguing..

Gabrielshow24:
That's your cup of tea!
It's a false assertion.
For something to be true it must remain in the TRUTH!!!

So can we conclude that you don't know the criteria?

Gabrielshow24:
Like I told your colleague, works without being in the Truth is vanity!!!

Can you talk about your own church now where the truth is taught and how it's taught?

Gabrielshow24:
The bible speaks for Itself!
The coherence of the bible shows its truthiness!!!
I don't need to rely on false assumptions!!!
You don't even have substantial proof that Michael is Jesus!
At best what you have is calling a leopard, cheetah because of similar stripes🤨

This is what you said about the church that has true teaching.

Gabrielshow24:
Also, those that also teach them are also important!!!
What they teach them?
How they teach them?

So let's talk about yours now at least yours should have all those qualities!

Gabrielshow24:
If this is what your church has to offer then it's false!!!
I don't even need to do deep analysis the coherence of your premises fail!!!
After all, I am privy to all your doctrines😂😂😂

We want to talk about your own now àbí yours should be trashed?

sonmvayina:
God and read it as an adult.
It is obvious you don't know anything about the book.
A book that was turned into a movie...

So if a book was turned into a movie by those who felt it's important that means everyone should be interested shey?

How come you don't want to hear about Jesus of Nazareth and his disciples with all the movies ever acted ?
Or are you saying your Things fall apart movie goes further than the movie of Jesus?

sonmvayina:
The Jews are not saying one must be practicing Judaism in other to share in the world to come, No. If you are good and you keep the laws of the creator....you will share in it.

So how come people in those countries you mentioned aren't sharing the laws nah?

sonmvayina:
They are practicing it and keeping the divine laws. They don't need to be members of any group. Just apply the precepts to your life and let it guild you. That is the purpose.

So are you saying they are keeping the laws you listed the other time yet there is trouble everywhere?

Gabrielshow24:
If you were not blind you would have seen "learning" in my previous statement!!!

Also, those that also teach them are also important!!!

What they teach them?
How they teach them?

Now we are getting somewhere!

So tell me those who taught you and in which church were you taught?

After all you said:
Those that teach, what they teach and how they teach is IMPORTANT.

That's why i keep asking you where you were taught, who taught you and how you were taught!

sonmvayina:
Is the story in "Things fall apart" True?
But it is packed with many messages for the reader. Same as the Bible stories. Read it and learn the messages and apply them to your life. It's not hard.

So you believe in the nonsense written by that man shey?
Why not ask people to start acting upon what the man wrote nah?

Gabrielshow24:
I don't think say, while learning is part of the process.
The first criteria is belief in Jesus!!!

How can people believe in whom they have not heard about?
How can they hear if nobody preach to them?
How can they preach if they are not sent to do so? Romans 10:13-15

Please explain!

Gabrielshow24:
So that's the only criteria😂😂😂.
What's the first criteria before that? 🤔
It's definitely no different from Muslims doing jihad!!!

First criteria is learning from those who knows better than you just as Jesus humbly learned from his father {John 7:16} then passed it onto his humble disciples and they humbly learned from him {John 17:8-9} then he commanded them to pass on the message to humble people. Matthew 10:11-13
So the first and foremost criteria is humility {Matthew 5:5; Zephaniah 2:2-3} only humble people can surrender under the headship of harmless people like Jesus and his apostles! Matthew 10:16

But when you keep claiming you belong to Jesus yet you don't have anything doing which you were taught to do along with fellow believers who are all serving the Lord how then are serving Jesus?

Gabrielshow24:
.
The TRUTH is internally coherent!!!
Hence God can't lie!!!
In summary the Truth speaks for itself!!!

You need to substantiate for everyone to grasp what you are saying.

Let me explain my own faith.

Jesus commanded his disciples to go and make more disciples {Matthew 10:11-13} by preaching from house to house and door to door, then get such ones baptized afterwards continue teaching them all what he commanded {Matthew 28:19-20} so by this they will recognize themselves anywhere they go as fellow believers {Matthew 12:46-50} they will have love among themselves {John 13:34-35} and they will not join the political struggles which turns people to enemies fighting and killing themselves! John 18:36

So to identify Jesus' true disciples they will have love among themselves not just talking about faith that's worthless unable unite people claiming worshipers of the same God! 1Corinthans 1:10
