God bless you so much.
If you read my post very well you will realized that i have also said i do gives testimony as well.

But the kinds of testimonies i hears this days sometimes look as if one is gossiping, and it is very pathetic.

Ok imaging a situation whereby you prayed in your room for a particular attacked you use to have, may be the next morning a woman dies in your compound. The next day Sunday come and see how the whole church will be jubilating for this very incident.

Is that a testimony?

Or haven't you heard of such a testimonies before?
Gbaaaam ! May God bless you my brother

If you believe it's God that saved your life then no matter how bad you feel for other victims of the same incident, you must share your testimony and give thanks.

But if you feel it's your knowledge and smartness that saved you, feel free to take all glory and give credit to yourself for that but keep it in mind to watch and keep yourself save ever after because God does not take pleasure in fools

Hmm the question that has still been left unattended, is if your family are included in such an accident that kept u alive, will you testify? Simple.

I don't know why we are dodging that question.

And this really shows you the kinds of person we are.

In my own opinion, it is not good.

In fact, I call such [url=ttp://hubpages.com/religion-philosophy/Bad-Prayers]bad prayers[/url].

I put it up here for us to learn one or two things here.

Do you even imaging what other families are going through at that moment?

You have no logic to justify your argument. I will testify with thanksgiving in my hand and mouth. The bible recorded in 1Thessalonians 5:18 "In all circumstances give thanks to God. For that is his will for you in Christ Jesus"

Will you also give thanks if all your family were involved?

But you will do so if they are not involve? Hmmmmm

Christianity.

"In everything give thanks to God". Everything here means good or bad. There is nothing that a man has that he did not receive from God. Whether it is deliverance from death by accident of favour of any form. Now whatever is telling you to debate giving a testimony or determining whether a testimony is weird or not or whether in your own opinion it passes for a testimony is from the pit of hell. The devil comes in subtle ways and wants to use you to introduce reason and debate into the things of God that's how some people unfortunately have become atheists. One of the comments on this thread from someone says 'when i was a believer' what an unfortunate comment from the individual. Some of you have become so educated and its leading you to spiritual death. It is not all kinds of knowledge that is good for you as a believer. Its not every book you read neither is it every message u allow into your spirit. There is a forbidden knowledge and as a believer you have to consciously avoid it.
God is d reason why we sleep and wake up, he is the reason why some people get a job without interview, why some women who have no womb still deliver children, and if u think reading to pass an exam does not require a testimony remember that there are those who read but went blank when their receiver their question paper and answer booklet .
The bible says get wisdom and in all thine getting get understanding. It is only a fool (bible use of English ) that says in his heart that there is no God.
Pls if u want to reply this be civil and dont insult me.
Thank you

I get ur point bro but the one who know the reason such thing happen is God. u cannot question him.... we must give testimony at all time but we should just be so careful so that our testimony in church will not make others think God is partial.

But never try to give people only what can God give to them. u r not the one who died for them on the cross.

Thank you.

Worry is agitation, is Selfish and is Evil.
In all situations, constantly thinking and communing with The Supreme Spirit provides Peace, Patience, Perseverance and Humility and is Righteous.
Testimonies are very good, but this particular one we are talking about depends on your Knowledge of The Mission of God in you and how much of Christ you are blessed with.
We all value to make Heaven and we all must know Death and Life thoroughly before we make Heaven. Jesus is The Standard and is Life and Resurrection.
You can't approach Buhari anyhow or anytime, but you can talk to God right now without permission of a DSS.
Just wonder at the marvellous ways of God, and always surrendering all Honour and Glory to Him in Christ Jesus.
Testimonies are very good. They are Praises for Security, Safety and Success bestowed on us by Grace. They express how much of our attention to do good is still needed on earth by God and how much we understand and appreciate God in Christ Jesus.

Thanks for reading. I appreciate your response.

Testimony on Economic recession, last Two year i was able to earn 1.5million per annual but now it hardly for me to earn 150,000.........
Give God thanks for your 150000.. if you have lost something at all he is the reason you have not lost everything. Read about Job in the bible. U are yet to experience 1%of what he experienced. Remember also that in everything give thanks to God

Genesis2000:


My dear i really have a different heart from other people, and these one of the reason i finds it had that God could burn human in eternal fire just because they sin against him.

I still believe that man misunderstood God.

The people who died in noahs water, died only once. Those who were consumed by fire in sodom and gomorah city also died only once, you know then the gospel of hellfire has not been preach.

When when Jesus came who came purposely to deliver us now came the gospel of hellfire was introduced. So now anybody who died in sin now, since he had heard the gospel will end up in hellfire and remain there forever.

Does that make any sense to you?

So it means that those who died in Adam generations were just lucky? Is that want you think?

If I'm God i can not burn my enemy in fire for 24 hr watching him screening in agony. Infact i can't do it for 2 hrs.

So that's why am wandering if it is palatable to survived an accident that claimed everyone, and the next thing is to go to the church and testify his goodNess upon my life. Hmmm i was just thinking the pain which other family will be going through.

Like i said before i really have a different heart. And that's the way God created me.

Listen my dear, if i make heaven and see people in hellfire believe me i will not be happy.

How are you today?

My friend. God is a good God. I mean the God that created the heavens and earth and all within it in 7days, just so u know the one am talking about.
Hell fire u mentioned is not a gospel it is a place that people who heard about Jesus and did not accept him as Lord and saviour despite the provision he made by his death on the cross for them to escape it.
Heaven is real too and is meant for people who are in right standing with God who have accepted christ.
Know this that good intentions and good work will not take u to heaven or prevent u from going to hell. The only way is accepting Jesus Christ.
Read Hebrew 3:1-19,

Lol why should i insult you for sharing your opinion.

Besides if you have read my earlier post you will realized that i do give testimony too.

We were all learning and that's why i put it up here.

God bless you.

Read Hebrew 3:1-19,

Our understanding of hell differs.

I believe it is a land of the death where everybody that died goes to first. And some will remain there forever why some will leave from there to heaven. Jesus is a good example he visited hell once he died.

But you believe it was an oven made of fire, your saying Jesus were also tormented with fire.

I believe there is Hell too but our understanding of it differs.

God bless you.

In any situation even in a painful and difficult situation like that a man is never to question God but still testify and give thanks . Even families are never limited to blood relatives. A real compassionate and selfless man would feel pain for strangers the same way he would for close ones

Christianity.

Am a christian with faith. I gave you a bible quotation to back up my stand. "in all things or circumstances. Haven't you seen a family that perished in accident without one survival? During Nigeria / Biafran war next to my village a Russian bump landed in a family house and killed every living thing accept the man who went out early for reasons. He married again @ 55 and raised a generation. His words was praises to God till he died. Yes I will thank him.

Yes. It's right for information and knowledge of all that hear the Testimony. God alone judges all human actions.

Genesis2000:
I have been imagining this for some times now.

I knows that testimonies are good, and i have also given my testimonies on several occasions.

But what in a situation whereby you re traveling or going else where and you borded a 14 seaters bus and may God forbid the bus have accident and only you survived. Will you go to church and testify and give thanksgiving?

I have raised this question somewhere before...

Do you think it is proper to do so?

Someone is wondering now, what kind of question is this? And why wouldn't i testify of his goodness upon my life? Hmmm

to this person, ok what if your wife or your only son is involved in that accident, would you still go ahead and testify?

Don't you think that some of these testimonies we hear these days are not really necessary?

Don't you think that such testimony are really selfish and selfcenterdness?

Do you think if Jesus is in a boat and and by accident he lost all his disciples, do you think he will testify for his safety?

We were all leaning anyway. And i stand to be corrected.
Do you think these kinds of testimonies really worth it.

Does any body here has any contrary opinion to these?
Pls let here from you. Thank you.

What is testimony? Appreciation. Do you fail to show appreciation because you think it is selfish? OK! If you are not chosen for the next round of blessing don't complain.

The universe was made to pay back everyone according to their doing. Nothing can harm one who harms non. You don't know what those people did, neither do you know what they were about to do next.

Don't be simple minded

No, it has nothing to do with religion but individual errors and omissions. Do you know if some of them just committed rituals or one abomination or other?

Yes. It is the greatest miracle that can ever happen to a man! The bible says: 'To the living, there is Hope; for a living dog is better than a dead lion' Although you may have feelings for those who lost their lives but then...
However, that is a mysterious miracluous Testimony
