...it didn't take long after the convention for me to put things in order and get ready to move to Bayelsa state. Prior to this, i knew nowhere in Bayelsa state. I was going to meet total strangers but i didn't bother because it was Jehovah's service and i had to absolutely trust in him. After all the ups and downs it finally got to the day i had to travel to bayelsa state to check the teritory i was going to serve. But before that day something dramatic happened that i will like to mention. There was a brother in charge of the sign language group i was going to check, i tried calling his line for many days but couldn't reach him. I didn't understand what was going on...

This is what I have noticed: there are many unmarried men in the world looking for a wife, but a woman is still praying and fasting and visiting native doctors to help him find a husband; there are many single ladies desperately looking for a husband, but a man is still wishing he can get a wife; there are many orphans roaming the streets wishing they've had a parent, yet many couples and fasting and praying and trying all forms of medication just to have a child. Something must be wrong somewhere...

I'm sure buhari will not live to see that time, most people living now will die by then

I need eternal and perfect peace

Karma is waiting for you at a corner. Two in one sin.

If karma is real, then the baby is reaping what he sowed in his past life.

The way people pretend to be caring when things like this happen is so hypocrytical. Nobody, i repeat, nobody cares until you are gone. If you no know you no go know

Hmm

So you understand it now. Allright

I heard he's now a lecturer, is it true?

GoodIsGod:
If you had known that there is more to life than the physical, you wouldn't say this.
Nothing worths taking one's life. Life problems come and go.
It may look like it will never go but if you endure the time, you'll realize you've been wrong all the while.

LIFE IS IN PHASES.

I'm speaking from experience.

I've been through many storms and Ive come out of them eventually.
I'm going through another one as I am typing and it's certain I will overcome it also. That is life for you.

Bottom line: Every one needs to be saved by JESUS.

you mean all the billions of people need to be saved by one ancient story man?

There's so much that's bad about suicide. And if you're thinking about it, pls come off it. We still love you. People experience worse things and still live, and eventually things turn around. Self murder is still a murder and it's so wrong.

nothing is wrong with suicide but there's everything wrong with giving birth. Forcefully bringing another human to this miserable planet is the worst thing ever.

Chidolalar:
Exactly!
D sound of push push from d nurses and doctors while coming out from our mothers vagina clearly shows we were forced to come into this life and not by our own free will.

you are correct to the core

Sltp:
Same here

Please when you get there prepare a place build a big city and prepare a place for more victims because we expect many more suicides as Tinubu says he wants to continue from where buhari stops.

Nwaotu10:
I admire her bravery.
I pray to muster the courage to do same sooner.

Please when you want to do it let me know so that i can send you a message to some friends over there who took the same course.

Chidolalar:
And why will d creator create a human to suffer all manners of physical, emotional, and psychological pain and agony in d first place

but i hope you guys think that antinatalist aren't thinking well? Now let's get it right- We humans are the creators of other humans. Parents are responsible for whatever happen to their offspring.

Can you quote the highlighted in God's word?

Because Timothy was an elder in the first century Christian congregation yet his stomach ulcer wasn't cured miraculously! 1Timothy 5:23

James 5:14 "is there anyone sick among you..." i'm sure you know what your bible instruct you to do except you want to dodge it

have you checked the footnote of your NWT bible in 1Cor.6:9: Gal.5:19,20; Rev.21:8? You will do well to do an indepth research on the origin of the word "pharmacy". I still don't know why your bible translators replace "drugs" with magic or spiritism in your bible.

MaxInDHouse:
Jesus never said we shouldn't take cases to the court of law. That's why he told his disciples to make sure they settle their disparities among themselves but when the wrongdoer feel he's too big for the church to reprove then we will treat him like any other person which means we should take his case to those who uses force and weapons to handle matters! Matthew 18:15-17

Matthew 5:25,40; 1Cor 6:1-7.

9. Why do christians take drugs? The bible says that sickness is caused by sins and healing is by faith and repentance. Drug is condemn as work of the flesh and those taking it won't inherit the kingdom of god. But why do christian disbelief their bible? Could it be that they don't believe that god can heal them?

MaxInDHouse:
You're interpreting what you don't understand!

Images were common in ancient times so God never told Israelites not to make images for the purpose of remembrance, what other nations do with the images is disgusting: bowing and worshiping it.

That's what God condemns!

You care to site an example of where jesus made images of himself and disciples?

MaxInDHouse:
At least i have answers!

your answers are just your own way of strengthening your excuses for not obeying your bible. It's just like adam in your genesis saying that the woman lured him to eat the forbidden fruits.

Why do believers detest poverty even when the bible says that the kingdom of heaven belongs to the poor. Rich men are instructed to sell out their possesions and distribute to the poor. The early christians counted it a privilege to be poor and sold out their material riches. So why do modern christians view poverty as a curse and pray for riches instead? Could it be that they don't believe their bible anymore?

Why do believers make images and drawings of jesus even when their bible clearly tells them not to make a representation of anything existing in heaven or earth? Interestingly,jesus didn't take pictures of himself or instructed his followers to do so,yet believers go on to make drawings and images of their god in books and stones. To be strict, believers shouldn't have photographs of themselves because its against their god's command. Could it be that they don't believe that their god is serious on this matter?

6.why do believers take vengeance? Jesus taught non resistance and yet believers hardly obey him on that. Some in as far as taking their case to court even when their bible tells them not to do so. Could it be that christians don't believe that god will always administer justice in the right way? Maybe they think they can do better than their god.

MaxInDHouse:
If you still have more questions regarding what our book says i'm still very much around.
I am Maximus one of Jehovah's Witnesses!

So you now feel proud that you've done a great job. Hahahaha, i just don't see the need to counter your answers because it will lead to undending argument. Your answers are just what you were programmed to say by your white masters.

TUANKU:
Over 200 million Nigerians told you this am sure.

We are the cause of our problem and nobody can help us until we decide to help ourselves. Anyway, i will like to watch nigeria's extinction as a nation, a bunch of corrupt consumers going into oblivion is surely an enjoyable experience.

God doesn't change!

He made a covenant with a man called Abraham and promised to be faithful regarding this covenant that's why He did all what was written as a loyal friend for the descendants of His friend Abraham.

The promise He made concerning the earth stands but misinformed religionists are thinking God should continue doing all the things He did for the descendants of His friend Abraham when He made no covenant with your own ancestors!

in one word, he was the god of abraham. We should all follow the various gods of our ancestors?

"I am the Lord,I have never changed"; "Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever". Do believers of the bible really believe that god is unchangeable? But when they do certain things in direct contrast with what their bible says, christians tell you that the bible was written when men did not open their eyes. "it is no longer like that" is what they likely say as an excuse to do what the bible forbids. Could it be that christians think that god has changed in some areas? He can no longer divide the red sea or raise the dead, he doesn't heal instantly anymore,he doesn't answer by fire now a days, he doesn't send manna from heaven anymore, etc. Why and when did he change?

Why do believers aspire for material riches even when jesus made it clear that a rich person CANNOT ENTER the kingdom of God? Jesus and his early followers didn't seek material riches and didn't instruct his believers to seek riches. So why do christians today think they can amaze wealth in the world and still make it to the kingdom of god. Could it be that they don't believe jesus on this matter?

MaxInDHouse:
I told you that out of fear people do so many things but when Jesus begin his rulership death, sickness, poverty, oldage, crime, hunger even all the forces of nature will work as if it's all for our good, no more storms, hail, tornadoes, pandemic and so on.
Ọmọ there will not be any reason to fear and do what we know is wrong!

i hope you guys say that if people obey God only in a favourable condition that will not settle the issue of human integrity? So you've now realize that you can't obey God until you live in a "bed of roses". So why all these years of suffering if God knew that humans can't obey him until your imaginary 1000yrs?

MaxInDHouse:
When someone does what is stupid you have to let him know that he or she is STUPID that's why Jesus and Paul used abusive speeches! Matthew 23:17; Galatians 3:1

So what did Jesus mean when he said:

"However, I say to you that everyone who continues wrathful with his brother will be accountable to the court of justice; and whoever addresses his brother with an unspeakable word of contempt will be accountable to the Supreme Court; whereas whoever says, ‘You despicable fool!’ will be liable to the fiery Ge·henʹna" Matthew 5:22

Here Jesus is talking about a believer who uses abusive speeches for his fellow believer that's strictly following Jesus' orders.
For Instance a believer may choose to remain single all his life {Matthew 19:12} or completely avoid alcoholic drinks {Matthew 5:29} or wants to live all his life completely serving as a minister {Luke 18:22} and so on.

excuses and confusion

3. Why do believers engage in sexual sins even when their bible clearly condemns such? Why so many boyfriends and girlfriends among christians? Could it be that they don't believe their bible? Or maybe they think that the bible is somehow wrong on that issue? Could it be that God is not serious?
