Doesn't relate with my post. you can't jst proclaim ur god is the unknown God when so many other religions claim it too

that's why He left much evidence for us in the Bible.

Femmymata2:
I understand what you mean.. Humans can sentence an offender to death or life imprisonment which will end with demise of such individuals. No human will sentence a fellow human to eternal torture,burning with fire. Humans have limited power but God has the ultimate power to stop boko haram and still allows them to kidnap and r.ape innocent girls while he is waiting in heaven to throw them in hell, thats insanity. God,boko haram are of thesame ilk

bro you really need to understand God's ways. All this things happen because of our sins. If you read 1King,2King,1Chro,2Chro very well you will see so many times how the Israelites turn away from God and started worshipping idols and fornicating. God left them to their sinful pleasures. And allowed their enemies to battle against them killing many of them. Even the innocent ones suffer with them. Compare that to Nigeria where there is corruption here and there, but if all of us can repent, the BH boys would have been a destroyed before long. Any nation where there is sin God cannot dwell there. So the devil will take control over that nation unless they repent.

I completely agree with the bold...but the God I feel inside me is nothing like the Christian or Islamic gods
As a matter of fact the God I see in everything is nothing like Allah or Jehovah
these are jst two cun men

"For as I was passing through and considering the object of your worship, I even found an alter with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the one whom you worship without knowing Him I proclaim to you:
God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of Heaven and Earth, does not dwell in temple made with hands." Acts 17:23-24

The funny thing is many people(Gods) claim to own the car
who is now the real owner??

there is only one God, the creator of Heaven and Earth. He cannot be represented by any image neither can He be seen with the naked eye. But you can feel His presence inside of you. "For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. 1Tim 2:5"

Femmymata2:
Thats nice bro, but like i told u going to heaven wouldn't be a thing of joy for me know there are people burning,screaming,roasting in hell. God has the right to do what he wants, i also have the right to chose hell. I pray u'll make heaven in jesus name.

So, what you are saying is that, when an armed robber or lets say the BH boys recieve punishment for all their deeds, you would love to join them to suffer even though you are innocent?

Femmymata2:
I can't be in heaven with my freewill and not want to stage a coup to upstage God and release those children,men and women burning,tortured,screaming in hell. But God knows my deepest thought and would not allow me in heaven, but when i get to hell we would see how we can convince our host(satan,demön,torturing angels) to believe in our plans. Satan tried it once and failed, with numerous advanced brains he can succeed.

bro I know how you feel. But that's how He wants it and no one can question Him. Look at it yourself when you buy a car. You will choose the person you want to enter your car, the one's you want to drive it. You have power to direct the use of that car. So, no one will come to you and say why are you doing the car like that. Likewise God has power over His creation. So you can not question Him. Our problem is that we want things in our own way, we are not ready to follow His guidelines, that is why many will end up in hell fire. Just humble yourself before Him and stop thinking that you cannot make it to heaven. With man it is impossible but with God, all things are possible.

But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed said to him who formed it, "why have you made me like this?
Does not the porter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?" Rom 9:20-21.

@All who said God won't allow his creation to suffer pain and agony in Hell, do you not remember the suffering of Jesus Christ, how He was, rejected by all, beaten, nailed, mocked etc. Even Jesus wanted to back off from fulfilling His purpose but He gave up Himself to fulfill God's will. "....O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will" Matt26:39 Now you want to make it to heaven without a price. If the sinners and the righteous will make it to heaven, then why should He die for our sins. You better seek the kingdom of God and its righteousness now that you are alive so you won't lose your way to heaven.

Alexk2:
The bible talk about fear in two way, bro..
1. Restrianing fear..this is the type we show toward God as explained in eccl. 12:13-14.."....fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man..." this is like the type of fear we have for our fathers when we are young; we don't want them to come back and find out we failed to do our assigned duties because we know there will be purnishment. God love us and make a covenant with us true Jesus's blood; we therefore must fulfil our part of the covenant be living by being Holy and pleasing to Him.rom. 12:1-2. The fear for God is a restrainig fear but a rewarding factor.

2. Fear of satan, demons, evil people, objects..e.t.c..this type of fear is destructive..it is the feeling caused by the nearness of possibility of danger or evil and since we are created with feelings, we have the propensity to fear.
Since this type of fear comes from the devil, we must repuke it and refuse to allow it into our lives as a Child of God..read Psalm 23:4..and 1 John 4: 18..contact me if you need more explainatn

^^^ That guy up there has said it all. But to add a few: "And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him who, after He has killed has power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him!"
You should fear God only. Fear opposses our faith in God. If you fear that bad thing will happen to you during a tough situation, you will give the devil power to make that bad thing to happen. Because fear is a form of believe - a negative believe. If you recall in Matt 14:25-32 when Jesus commanded Peter to come to Him walking on the sea, after taking a few step, Peter noticed the boisterous winds that surrounded him, immediately fear gripped him and he started sinking and shouting for help. So always have faith during a fearful situation.

DESTINY KILLERS:
And when it was day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul -Acts23:12.
Whenever a child is born, the devil assigns something or some forces to terminate his destiny. This forces can rise from the father's house, the mother's house, within the family or from the neighbourhood. "And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? Or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words" -Gen37:8. Joseph was a child of great destiny. When he revealed his destiny to His brothers, they became jealous of his destiny and they conspired against him to kill him and his destiny. Any one who holds a great destiny must be prepared for great battles. If you happen to be the type who doesn't know how to fast and pray, know that the enemy have free access to your destiny and can kill it at anytime. Even Jesus Christ after He was born, king Herod seek His life to destroy it. Whenever the enemy hears of ones destiny they will use every means available to destroy it. You must never reveal your destiny to anyone like Joseph did. If you do, you will throw yourself into more troubles. Sin can also destroy ones destiny. If you still have pleasure in sin, know that you are choking your destiny with your own hands. "for I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope" -Jer29:11. God's plan for mankind was taunted by the devil. But if you can hold on to Him and flee from sin and be prayerful, you will live to see the fulfilment of your destiny. God Bless you.

Yes I have lost hope in God. I have nothing left in life than breath. No job, can pay rent, no hope. Why does God allow so much suffering and depression? He is indeed the God of the rich and he is wicked

Bro this is my last advice for you and i will be very happy if you can do it. Fast and pray for seven days concerning your problems. But first ask for forgiveness for your action. You must pour out your heart to God telling him how sorry you are. During the fasting period make sure you keep away from sin so you won't do it in vain. You will see and know that God is faithful.

The only time christian experience problems is either during trials of faith - like Job experienced or when you sin or disobey God. Sin and disobedience removes God's shield over a man. Like king Saul, when he disobeyed God, God's spirit left him and His place was overtaken by an evil spirit which was saddled with the task of afflicting king Saul. Sometimes you can be the one afflicting yourself and instead you continue to blame God. When king David did a census of the people of Isrealite which was against God's wish. God became angry and that day, the angel of God killed 70,000 isrealites. And ordinary job you no get, you con dey shout say God is wicked! You better start seeing His mercy upon your life.

Second question: Since God has all powers, what does He stand to gain if most humans His creatures end up with Satan? What's the logic behind this?

But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed said to him who formed it, "why have you made me like this?
Does not the porter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?" Rom 9:20-21.

bro i will advice you to learn from Job's experience. In Job 2:10 "But he said unto her, thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this Job did not sin in what he said.

Christians who have their focus on earthly things like properity, riches instead of the kingdom of God are more likely to get tired serving the Lord....

For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no nor ever shall be.
And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened. Matt24:21-22
Yes! I believe you that things are hard this days but that does'nt make God unfaithful to his promises.

Always remember that any Christian who believes in Christ Jesus but does not fulfill the ten commandment is HELL BOUND. Rom 3v31 says: "Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary we establish the law". Also, Rom 6v15 says: "What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!

Weah96:
The OT, which coincides with the Jewish Torah, says absolutely nothing about any virgin giving birth to their messiah. Show me a verse in Jewish scriptures, or the old testament, where Yahweh promised to send himself as messiah. Or where the messiah would be born of a virgin.

read Isaiah 7:14.

DELAYED HARVEST:
While the earth remains seed time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease -Gen8:22.
When a farmer sows a seed, the next thing that will be on his mind is to harvest it when it is time. The time it takes to harvest corn is different from that of yam, while that of yam is different from that of cocoa. This is also similar to the way man receives his harvest from God. If you sow a seed to God and you did not receive the harvest in time. Do not panic! He has not forgotten you; it is just that the time of your harvest has not yet come. Others that you sowed together with may be reaping their harvest as early as possible, but know that the time it takes to harvest corn is different from that of cocoa planted at the same time. Remember it took Hannah several years to receive a child from God while Peninnah her adversery have had children for Elkanah their husband (1Sam 1). "Be not deceived: God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap" Gal -6:7. God has an appointed time of releasing your harvest to you. It takes patience to receive from Him. Abraham received God's promise, Isaac at an old age. God's promises always come to fulfillment no matter what, but it all depends on your faith and character. " And it happened, as he sowed, that some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the air came and devoured it" -Mark4:4. It is good to sow, but it is best to know the type of ground you are sowing your seed. Whenever you want to sow, always know the type of church you are sowing into. And whenever you are sowing to God make sure you have no sin inside of you. As you sow this month, you shall reap a greater harvest in Jesus name. Amen.
