specialmati:1. So because God is Spirit, He lied when He said man was made from the physical components of this earth- Genesis 2 vs 6-7 & John 3 vs 1 - 8 - and as such not an eternal being - Genesis 3 vs 19 -22 ? |

Kobojunkiee:Job 33:4 “The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life. i know you lack wisdom, when you read or study the bible pray the spirit of God helps you with understanding. you dont interpret the bible with your limited knowledge. May God restore you. |

Kobojunkiee:chai so when you die your body returns to God abi your spirit .beside how do you communicate with God knowing he is Spirit |

specialmati:1. What part of the verse you quoted tells you that you, a man, have a spirit of your own to claim? In Genesis 2 vs 6-7, you are informed that God made man(mind, body, and soul) complete before God then breathed life(His own spirit) into man(mind, body, and soul). That is pretty much what is repeated there in Job 33 vs 4 to you. In Genesis 3 vs 19 -22, God informs you that man was not made eternal from his birth and so God's breath of life(His own spirit) will not tarry long with man as a result meaning that when man dies, God's breath of Life will return back to God — it was never man's property or a part of man, to begin with. In Genesis 6 vs 15 God equally informs you that He breathed the same breath of life into all living creatures. So, is it that you have a language comprehension problem or something? |
Re: Why Fasting And Praying Is A Waste Of Time And Waste Of Hope by Kobojunkiee: 10:22pm On Apr 15, 2023 |
specialmati:1. According to God, He breath HIS OWN life(spirit) to animate you whom He already made from clay. So, my question again is when did God's property — the spirit of life— become your private property? Since God breathed the same breath of life into all living creatures which He made — Genesis 6 vs 15 - 21 — does this equally mean that when a plant dies, that particular plant's very own spirit is what returns to God? When an amoeba dies, the amoeba's very own spirit is what returns to God. 2. So, in your mind, God cannot communicate with His creations unless they each have their own personal spirits to them? Adam did not have a personal spirit to his being yet God communicated with Him. The same with all of His descendants, so where does this idea that God can only communicate with those who have personal spirits come from? |

Kobojunkiee:The Bible teaches that we consist of body, soul and spirit: "May your whole spirit, soul and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus" (I Thessalonians 5:23) thank God you still even read the bible but what is lacking now is understanding i pray you receive it |

Kobojunkiee:i know you lack wisdom and understanding immediately i saw this your write up(1. Unless your goal is weight loss, these fasting and praying rituals are indeed a total waste of time and mental energy) have you studied the life of jesus while on earth,did you know while the disciples where called christians,i know you are a christian by religion because maybe you were born into a Christian home. you need to encounter christ to be called a christian.until that happens that demon that typed that shit through you wont leave."The Lord's purpose in giving the parable is specifically stated; it was 'to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint. '" (Luke 18:1.) i get why so that demons wont possess you |

Kobojunkiee:now i understand you,all you need is the spirit of understanding,you dont use your human understanding to interpret the bible oga. you read one portion of the bible to use it to interpret the rest of the bible .i have given you the bible verse that tells you about man(spirit,soul and body)you are still showing me shit.i got no time for shit.i know you know nothing about Jesus thats why you talk shit about praying and fasting as a ritual.where did God breath life into all living creature in the bible please stop na why not seek understanding from the holy spirit if you know him.so jesus fast and prayed to reduce weight while on earth .this demon that possessed you get tap root oooh.oya be free in jesus name |

specialmati: It's through wisdom which I have learnt I am using to inform you that, your fasting is a waste of time since you keep waiting to finish and go back to your old ways... If fasting was important, it would have been a continuous act... You can go ahead and starve yourself, the fact has been established and wouldn't change |

Re: Why Fasting And Praying Is A Waste Of Time And Waste Of Hope by specialmati(m): 9:23pm On Apr 16, 2023 |
OperationalVehi:you should have said why fasting and prayer is a waste of time for you not for everyone. that its not working for you doesnt mean its so for everyone.na food you come earth come eat. you have no wisdom on spiritual matters so seek wisdom on that.even a native doctors fast for days to acquire power ,talk more of a someone that called himself a Christian its your own fasting that is a waste of time because your mindset towards it has been compromised. now you have choose to become a glutton continue. even without spiritual benefit fasting have many physical benefit to the body.nice week ahead.imagine if you are the jesus that satan told to turn stone to bread after that 40 days fast,you would have been turning every stone to bread till today since na food you come earth to eat continue |
