God does not deal with us according to our sins; let us repent and turn to his grace and mercy.

I don’t understand why God would be lenient even to our past military Heads of State.
Every one of them should have ended up miserably.

God will continue to be merciful and gracious to his people .
Re: Why God Is Patient And Merciful by Mailthaddeus(m): 8:25am On Aug 19, 2018
He is patient and merciful as long as you are still alive. He gives everyone (sinners) ample opportunity to repent and have their soul saved. But the moment you stop breathing while still leaving in sin. Then his mercies comes to an end, He becomes a consuming fire. Repent now and be saved.

Like I've always said, there's no difference between Yahweh of the Jewish mythology and an imaginary entity. it's almost as if Yahweh is imaginary
Check the example below

Spiderman is patient and merciful to criminals in New York, that's why he's not arresting them yet but is giving them the grace to turn away from their criminal ways

In the past, before Christ's 1st coming to the Earth, God used to strike hot and hard on disobedience.

But at Christ's coming, He brought special grace unto humanity, which is sealed until His 2nd coming when the special grace will elapse.

Until then God will "overlook" but you'll still account!

He spoke the truth. Yahweh is imaginary

Oga, you're a Nigerian, wetin concern you with god wey dey Israel, like mount Horeb and would bring about "new Jerusalem"?

the bible the Jews wrote weren't from you or for you. if it were Thessalonians 1:2 would be "Igbo 1:2" and 1 Corinthians would be "1 Yoruba". Where in the Bible is it written that Noah came to Africa to warn your ancestors about their mythical global flood?
You're a Nigerian but call yourself "Son of father Abraham" a slap on your ancestors who sacrificed a lot for you over millennia to be here

Even the Jews don't believe some Jesus died for them despite their ancestors supposedly interacting with him. which is why only 2% of Israeli people are Christians but a Nigerian like you read a book and quickly concluded the Jews are wrong. a slavery endorsing book written by anonymous authors and given to him by the pink skinned slavemasters of your ancestors. You must know Buhari more than those interacting with him because you read punch newspapers, right?

i think the post calls for individual reflection into how God has been merciful and patient towards man. How often do we exhibit such virtues for the betterment of mankind?

Focus on the message pls

Re: Why God Is Patient And Merciful by Nobody: 8:49am On Aug 19, 2018


has anyone ever thought of the fact that if Nigeria
constitution/justice system is like God own, all
Nigerians will simply be in life-jail
yet as bad as my country is: it never see me as
jail worthy (I've never committed any serious
offense)
it provides different levels of punishment to
different level of offence and exempt minors from
jail punishment
unlike God who will put a serial rapist, terrorist
and murderer together with a fifteen year old who
simply lie to her mother
threatened children with fire (my Sunday school
teacher weekly obsession)
according to God constitution we and our corrupt
politicians deserve same hell
God/Yahweh/Allah constitution and justice system
is the most anti human and simply delusional
I don't understand why Christian pretend about
this terrifying fact

You are one of the people that read Bible half way.

The unrepentant soul shall die according to the better convenant

Mock God all you want, misconstrue His patience and love for weakness if you wish. Those that seek God in truth and in spirit know Him intimately, they are not swayed by snide remarks or academic debates about God because they have lived it...they are living testimonies of God's power and love.

I have no anger towards those who are in conflict about the existence of God, after all, God has given us all the freedom to choose or reject His gift of salvation. I only implore such people to directly seek God out for themselves if they truly desire the truth. It's very simple; HUMBLY and HONESTLY approach God in prayer, tell Him that you need to know Him and He should please reveal Himself to you in His own ways. Desperately seek Him for yourself, and see how God responds to this earnest desire. God will make Himself real to anyone that desires to know Him, anyone who is willing to give up his sins and turn to Christ.

No one else can do this for you. God is waiting.
