You see how you dey contradict yourself.

You said Egypt had no laws. Which is a false statement. Your opinion of the law wether draconian or humane , is irrelevant.

Or you seem to forget so easily with the Islamic jihad?
When they are asked what do they say?
Don't they call themselves true followers of God!!!

But in the context of christians we are taught to adopt peace!!!

So in ideality, no christian sect will go to war against another christian sect!
Then you know nothing about church history.

Google Martin Luther the german priest, Ulrich Zwingli, the Heugenots and the protestant reformation

🤣🤣🤣shebi you've been quoting bible since na...no be bible question I dey ask you so?
God dey approve war wey dey make him worshippers fight each other? Yes or no sir?
Does his worshippers go to ask God for permission before they start fighting each other? Yes or No.

If yes, present one instance.

If you can't. Go back and re-read.

Human beings fight over perceived scarce resources. One attacks one defends. This wet work is done by people called soldiers who have signed up for this.

What each soldier worships becomes irrelevant in this. It's a game of survival that God does not lay blame on each soldier for because they are at the mercy of their commander and will be killed for disobeying orders.

That is the stark reality of the life of a soldier and God cmwho sanctioned wars differentiates between killing and murder of an innocent.

I know you argument is to say God worshippers are permitted to war against no God worshippers...but hey God raised Nebuchadnezzer abd Cyrus who were not worshippers of God to wage war against the Israelites.

The problem with you is that you don't like the sime short differentiation between killing and murder so you are complexing the whole matter yourself .

It is not ideal. But it is what it is.

God sef no gree for Satan when Satan wan overthrow am for heaven. He went to war.

In the Face of the laws of the country, the answer is no. But does God approve wars today that results in the oppression of people and the death of Christians, the answer is no. Any soldier involved in that is committing a sin.
Be careful when you claim to speak on God's behalf. Human beings compete for perceived scarce resources for survival.The lion kills the sheep to eat. Is the lion evil.

Jews, Christians and moslems have killed millions in God's name.

Oga...I'm happy you you've agreed that what we call an "enemy" in war today is based on individual countries perception and had nothing to do with God.

Do wars fought today spare the lives of Christians in either countries? Do God permit his faithful worshippers to kill each other in wars?
Read the entire thing i wrote. You will find your answers there.

God sef na warrior.

The question is if proffessional soldiers are guilty of taking human lives. The answer is no and I've articulated my reasons for saying so. That killing in a war and murder are two different things.

Even military ethos condemn killing of an unarmed soldier who has surrendered.

Michael547:
In the wars going on between countries around the world today, who can we say is the "justified" enemy in the eyes of God?
I am not God but so I cant speak for God.

What I do know is that since the beginning of mankind, men have fought over perceived scarce natural.resources such as land, water, crude oul, gold reserves , grazing routes abd for even flimsy reasons such as women and power.

Kings have raised army of soldiers to defend against external aggression and take over territories for survival if need be.

Those are earthly doings and even God himself fought a war in heaven and used his soldiers of which the chief was archangel.Michael to cast out the Devil who went to war with God with a third of the angels.


It is the duty of a soldier to defend and also to attack and takingnof human lives comes with the job. Those lives are not perceived as innocent by either countries because it is what each soldier signed up for.

Even God sanctioned so many wars, It is murder of the innocent that God is against. Eg Jezebel murdered Naboth and God punished her. David Killed Uriah abd God punished him for it.

Brother, learn and stop arguing.

Even when Jesus return , he will go to war against the rebels at Armageddon and he will kill thousands.

Jesus mission was to carry out the salvific mission on the cross. He did not meed to physically fight anyone.

His second coming, he is coming as a king with an army.

Stop arguing brother

Why did David refused to kill his principal enemy: King Saul? smiley
He said it clearly...that he was an anointed one.

Now in the game of power, it was a smart move. If David had killed Saul, he would have opened the karmic doors for others to kill him on the throne as well...and would have had the question of legitimacy.

Saul was no ordinary enemy. He was the King, and he was his father in law as well.

He was not an enemy soldier.

I have been in David's shoes. What you do is to wait it out. You don't kill your father in law.

Cococandy, does this sit well with you?
I mean, he's not "anti immigration" like you folks claim.
If you do away with immigrant workers especially the undocumented ones, the US economy will fall within a week.

I know alot of business owners have sent the memo to their elected officials .

Election is over, it is time to face the reality.

I remember the story of a company manufacturing energy drinks, 99 % of the over 400 workers in the building were said to be undocumented.

The government collects taxes from them and they can't get any in form of tax returns.

There are thousands of companies like that. The average citizen hates the strenuous work that most undocumented immigrants take up and without those guys the whole country will starve within a week.

Jesus or Satan told you this?

Whoever finds his soul will lose it, and whoever loses his soul for my sake will find it. Matthew 10:39

That's what Jesus taught his FAITHFUL disciples!


Jesus Christ told his FAITHFUL disciples:

Put away your weapons because those that take up weapons will perish by weapons! Matthew 26:52
David Killed Golaith and he was still a man after God's own heart. Jesus healed the Centurions servant.. a centurion is a leader of a 100 Soldiers...not once did Jesus condemn him.

Face reality. From time immemorial, every country needed soldiers to defend their territory and take up territory if need be.

God commanded the killing of many enemies and he himself had his angel kill hundreds of thousands.

From Egypt to Assyria to the Amalekites...in fact Saul was rejected for choosing to spare the life of the King of Amalek.

What have you to say to these?

Like I said stop being myopic in biblical analysis.

Jesus was a pacifist because the kingdom he was seeking to establish was not a physical territorial kingdom that did not require taking over of physical territories so the weapons were not carnal.

A soldier has a legitimate reason to kill and is not a murderer in any way.

Even God killed his son Jesus, so what are you saying?

Gpd did not judge David for killing Goliath in a war but punished him severely for murdering an innocent man in Uriah who had not wronged him in any way.

If you don't have any meaningful thing to say just keep quiet and stop quoting bible passages that you don't even understand the context.

Just as there is hatred in heaven but not among obedient spirit sons of God so angels obedient to God don't fight against one another.

So who are on God's side regarding wars on earth? smiley
You have heard the truth but you don't like it.

If someone wants to kill me, I have every right to preserve my life by killing him.

Those are the rules of war. So soldiers killing their armed enemies is not evil in the eyes of God.

For example Abraham killed when he went to war against the 5 kings of the east, Moses killed the egyptian, David killed Goliath and many more but it did not stop God Almighty from loving them...but the day David murdered an innocent man named Uriah, he incured the wrath of God.

Stop the ignorance and no dey do I too know.

YES!
According to God's word the life of each creature is precious to God that's why God never approved killing from the onset but along the way it becomes necessary for humans to eat fleshy creatures so God gave a rule on how animals should be killed to show respect for giver of life. Genesis 9:4-5; Leviticus 17:11-14
When God established a nation He didn't use a military force to do so the Israelites got their freedom from Egypt without lifting up a finger to fight God did all the fighting after much pleading with the Egyptian King who felt there is no such God who can order him around while God kept giving him a breathing space as if hardening his heart! Exodus 8:15, 32

So from the onset there was no room for a military it was Satan who initiated military to make humans feel they are strong enough to dominate their fellow humans!
Even in heaven there was war

Never ever stay in a family house 🏡

Never talk down about your family members to him
It's obvious you have never been married.

When time reach you go talk true.

I agree both of you should never stay in a family house though, and even staying close to both inlaw is not ideal...but pretending that members of your family are saints and do not have faults will land you in back in the streets eventually because you will never be fair when conflicts arise between your family and him. Your husband will see through you and will resent you for this even if him no talk, but him affection for you go dey reduce dey by day.

Secondly you still see him as a stranger...if you are still referring your siblings as your family. Who you husband come be? you never ready.

I.umderstand. Going forward I have resolved to be more selective as to who I allow to stay in my space.

I've given way too much of myself to people who needed a lift. Family, Friends and Aquintances.

This has really been draining and the next 3 to three to five years is for the sponge to cleanse itself.

I realize that majority of my friends and family expect me to "fix it"for them and have become used to it ,to the point that they find it hard to believe that I might even be going through anything at all. I even seem to attract people that I can pour into.

Its all good. Everything has its own season. The next five years is all about me and me alone.

Yemen has protested that Israel should stop murdering and genocidal act,against the Palestinians, as the UN remained helpless and all the European countries and other countries in the world look on.

If you bomb me, i bomb you back, no monopoly in bombing.

Small Yemen have refused to be bullied and have continued to stand up to Israel's terrorist criminal act of genocide and murdering babies.
Yemen has no distinct connection with the palestinians but they have just refused to standby and continue to watch the injustice.

David conquered Goliath.....The Yemeni's will humble the Israelis as they have refused to listen to the whole world
