MzNelly:Yeah right, an omni-powerful and omni-scient god creates the world and hands it over to satan to rule for free...every good thing that happens you claim it was god's but if it's bad you guys quickly claim it's satan, he rules the world bla bla bla Tell your god to grow some cojones and take over the world from satan then. Enough of starving kids in ravaged countries! |

hahn: Did you miss the part where I talked about "bigger and better" things? I brought up the issue about Satan, because I wanted to make it clear that you being a devoted Christian doesn't put you out of harm's way. It doesn't mean all your whims and desires would be attended to. It is Satan's world. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:22am On Dec 31, 2014 |
kevoh: He didn't just hand it over to Satan. You sound far gone. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:23am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:He says "All" a layman knows All means All. Now for d scripture u quote: Who is the world here? People or Terrestial powers? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:24am On Dec 31, 2014 |
starlingslimnet: The whole world is the earth. Lol, why must you confuse things? Terrestial powers, kwa? |

tosag: Stop Prayer and start acting. What are your qualifications ? Do you have any professional qualifications or intention to get some in your area of interest ? Is your CV up to date and professional standard in terms of content and presentation ? Read very carefully the Job requirements to tailor your CV and cover letter accordingly , don't send a generic copy ? Have you done a skill and experience mapping to the Jobs you want to apply for ? What do you think you can bring to your new Job and what are your career plans for the next 5 years ? Advice : Go to Google and search for good CVs and material/advice in the same area of your career choice. If you have been trying the same thing for a long time and it does not work, try another thing. I heard the case of a man who printed about 100 CVs and kept sending to various employers and received a reject each time, he never made it to the interview. Then he decided on a new strategy, he did what I advised you above and got a Job not long after. Obviously that was in the UK , it may not be as easy in Nigeria. Your prayer point : Wisdom and favour. Stop going to MFM to waste your time. |

MzNelly:I'm very much around. So how did he do it then...was it wrestled away from him by satan? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by hahn(m): 10:30am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: So God created the world and gave it Satan. Very generous of him |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:32am On Dec 31, 2014 |
kevoh: Lol, no You wanna hear the story? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:34am On Dec 31, 2014 |
hahn: Satan challenged God; he said he'd be a better ruler. You know how the temptation of Eve went down, don't you? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by kevoh(m): 10:35am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: I'm all ears. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:38am On Dec 31, 2014 |
frosbel:Noted. But are u trying to say I should put God aside for now? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:39am On Dec 31, 2014 |
kevoh: The term for it is Schadenfreude |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:40am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:In the beginning there were Gods. There has never been a battle for supremacy. Why would the Gods act like men? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by hahn(m): 10:40am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: So, basically God is punishing us because he and Satan had a quarrel and since existence they've been trying to figure out who's the better ruler while innocent kids starve and die and will probably end up in hell if they don't accept God as their Lord and personal saviour. Interesting |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:41am On Dec 31, 2014 |
kevoh: Satan challenged God; said He can't properly rule his people. Adam and Eve fell prey to his temptation. God, of course could not destroy Satan as Adam and Eve had chosen him over their creator. He let Satan rule and prove the crazy claim he's better. Err.... It's up to us to choose who we want as ruler now. God or Satan. That make any sense to you? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:44am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: Yet god will not save his own when they face tribulations cos satan is the ruler of the world, where does that put your god? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:44am On Dec 31, 2014 |
sonOfLucifer: How would you know? Do you read the Bible? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by kevoh(m): 10:45am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:Nope... Find a more convincing story for adults! This one is for toddlers...! |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:46am On Dec 31, 2014 |
hahn: This is more than just a quarrel; this is Satan challenging God's sovereignty, His right to rule. Claiming to be better. Was God to destroy Satan and have the angels and Adam and Eve thinking it was because God was inept as a ruler? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:48am On Dec 31, 2014 |
neoapocalypse: That would be tantamount to God assisting Satan. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:50am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: I'm guessing you were at this meeting for you to know so much about it |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:51am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:Why not? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by hahn(m): 10:54am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: Better he destroyed Satan than making me a victim of their egocentric quarrel. Don't you think? Besides, God is peaceful. He should have forgiven Satan and moved on with creation. This their quarrel don tey well well o. And you expect me not to keep malice with my neighbours. Hian 2 Likes |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:58am On Dec 31, 2014 |
neoapocalypse: Do you believe in the Bible? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 10:59am On Dec 31, 2014 |
tosag: Of course not. Pray for WISDOM and favour. You don't need to go to MFM to chant all night about wizards and witches, this is just a waste of time. Pray in your room , pray for wisdom as you research on ways to better yourself and CV, pray for wisdom as you apply, pray for wisdom and favour as you wait for news etc. This prayer could be 2 minutes or 5 minutes, God is not deaf ! |

Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:05am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: The Bible is a great book but it contains a lot of historically incorrect information and defies logical reasoning |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:05am On Dec 31, 2014 |
hahn: It wasn't about forgiving and forgetting. It was more like a student saying to his Lecturer: "I am better than you; and all you're teaching is just a bunch of crap!" If you were the Lecturer, what would you do? 1. Call out the student and ask him to do better [which he obviously can't] 2. Chase him out of the class and have the other students believe that he is right about you; and you are afraid of being proven wrong. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:07am On Dec 31, 2014 |
neoapocalypse: "Incorrect information"? Explain. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:08am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: O please MzNelly, you don't expect me to list them out |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:11am On Dec 31, 2014 |
neoapocalypse: Actually, I do. That's a very sensitive statement you made; and I am anxious to see the facts you have to back it up. |
