Chilobabe:
Lol. D Op has proven to u dat Jesus sometimes behaves like a jerk. Do u have any proof dat d Op is a jerk? No i guess. So swerve.
Don't be silly.

What prove is there?

The OP is a jerk for reading bible like a novel.

You are a jerk for jumping to premature conclusion without giving me time to answer your questions.

Now listen, I always tell people who lack the ability to see the underlying truths in the bible to stop reading it.

Literally speaking, Peter was a man of little faith. Why?

I will tell ya.

When you see someone walking on water, not just someone, your teacher and he tells you to join him, you only need a little faith to venture out of the boat and join him.

Peter did that but when it was time to show greater faith, he sank.

It is only people that have little faith that call out to Jesus,"Lord, save me!" when little problem arises instead of using the gift, power, and brain they have to handle the problem.

Peter should have exercised greater faith when conditions became threatening but he lost his confidence and called out for help. Sign of little faith

So Peter was a man of little faith. He was able to do only the little things that requires little faith.

That's a literal explanation for folks who have limited human understanding of what happened there.

Now the real deal and reason I say that those who lack the power to read and understand the scripture should forget it.

If you have a little knowledge of symbolism, you will understand that the story shouldn't be taken literally at all.

According to well understood symbols. The boat was a symbol of the church, in which Peter was the representative leader in spite of all his faults. The sea was used to signify chaos and the storm was persecution in which the powers of evil are whipped up against the church.

Those in the boat(church) are saved and comforted when Jesus comes to them, and they should remember that he promised to come when they least expect it, they need not be afraid when he is with them, and if they call out to him he will reach out and save them so that they will survive the persecution and live to worship him.



It is pointless explaining the fig tree when you cannot understand this little one.

Bible isn't a newspaper or novel so stop reading it like one.

@OP, Men prefer to take care of their women irrespective of how much she's earning but it becomes problem is when the husband is officially broke and the lady refuses to help, that is when you can say that she's stingy.

PoliticsRe: 6 Most Important Things Buhari Said In Highly Powered Meeting With APC Leaders by Tallesty1(m): 9:04am On Mar 25, 2016
metronaija:
Here's a list of important things Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari said in a speech during his meeting with APC National Caucus in Abuja:

For Niger Delta, the militants are sending some conflicting messages. Some have said they are ready to drop their arms and join the rest of the nation to build it. But part of them are still sabotaging installations

I want all Nigerians to believe and hold their PVC as personal entitlement as Nigerians and use it the way the like, and vote for whoever they like at which ever election.

We are now to pick the pieces as an APC government and so, there is no need complaining, but let us concentrate and see how much we can do with whatever remains of the economy. (on Nigeria's economy)

we have to be sure of the facts in our hands before we start prosecution so that Nigerians will believe what we have been telling them.

when I was in uniform, you took the perceived corrupt ones and put them in safe custody and quietly told them they were guilty until they can prove themselves innocent.

For globetrotting, sometimes, you need to present your case on personal basis to your economic colleagues and neighbors. Nothing is better than personal touch and I believe that we are learning a lot
