Sonnetoshodi:
Hello everyone.

I've been celibate for 10 months. Till I had sex couple days ago.

Before that time, I saw my self as God's favorite.

But now I just feel like God and I had a quarrel.
It hurts so bad, cause it's now like I don't know how to go to him.

A week now I've not said my night or morning prayers.

Has God left me? Can we still be close?
Have I don't something unpardonable.

Mummytoo:
Good morning nlanders

Happy Sunday to u all

I'm eager to know if its wrong to confront a pastor, because all my life I hate going pastors for anything, something happened on Monday, I didn't know who else to talk to ....so I went to the alter to pray and met with my pastor, I explained what happened between my husband and I and he settled the matter sweetly . I was so happy to have peace and joy back in my marriage till yesterday (Saturday) pastor called me out of that plenty congregation and told d church everything including what my husband has been hiding for years, he even added more things that didn't even happen to the story😂. I was just quiet and respectful since I wasn't expecting him to behave like that.

He prayed for me and I just left, he started getting angry that I can't even praise for my healing me or dancing round, I was just shocked at everything happening I left to the backyard and later went in again.

Immediately I got home I told my husband how he's image has been tarnished in church for what he didn't do, we had a misunderstanding and pastor said he flogged me (that didn't happen)

Is it wrong to confront him....
Coz I will act like I'm going to testify and correct that wrong impression he said about my husband

Just one time experience with pastor is killing me like this

Hendrixky:
Hmmmm...
Exactly what I'm saying when we wake in the morning we are faced with more than a hundred ways to die...

For the fact that you are alive doesn't mean you have a special grace or That imaginary being up there in the sky is giving you a preferential treatment....

With time what happened to Mr A will also happen to Mr B

We all have equal chances of receiving good and bad news in our lives....Time is what matters

The same people who just died in this plane crash probably last week when they heard about car accident that took some peoples live were thinking they have grace that is why they are Alive but see today they died in a plane crash

Ciscogod:
Can we have a day on Nairaland without Tinubu news? Either positive or negative

Kobojunkie:
A call from whom? Does God contradict Himself?,

vikinatius:
We keep complaining of bad leaders. At the same time, we complain if a pastor involve in politics.
I think clerics should be welcomed into top political positions because through them, God will be pleased to save our nation.

WHAT'S YOUR TAKE ON THIS MATTER?

EzegeNdiigbo:
Every day I hear this prayer from every church goers;God may you never leave me in my times of trials and lemme stand above my enemies. And am like how do one actually know that God almighty hasn't leave him/her.


So i want you all to enlighten me more this abeg and clear my curiosity.

suicidesheep:


Do away with your slave. Which one is you can't question him. Will u die if u question. Know this and know peace, there is no God and nothing spiritual

MaxInDHouse:


You have said you don't know so call on the spirit you're worshiping to help you out or humble yourself before the spirit i worship then i'll teach you, failure to do that my Master, Lord and King Christ Jesus said:

 “Do not give what is holy to dogs nor throw your pearls before swine, so that they may never trample them under their feet and turn around and rip you open". Matthew 7:6

All you need is a humble spirit and i will teach you but with this your arrogance, no way.
If you don't know then stay without knowing!

MaxInDHouse:


The highlighted!

Well speak for yourself my friend our Master, Lord and King Christ Jesus promised us:

"But the helper, the holy spirit, which the Father will send in my name, that one will teach you all things and bring back to your minds all the things I told you" John 14:26

So God's Holy Spirit has revealed lots and lots of sacred secrets to his Holy ones but you can't force us to tell you rather you humble yourself to gain wisdom.

I purposely included that group name that all of you vilify with contempt "Jehovah's Witnesses" are you ready to know why everyone (including babies) are sinners?
If not keep what you know to yourself i never quoted any of you arrogant Churchgoers!

Steep:

So a baby had sinned how? What law has a baby broken?

MaxInDHouse:


Misinformed and arrogant Churchgoers!


Your question sounds as if you're not ready to learn otherwise it should have been.
"What sin did we commit in our mother's womb?" Or better still
"What sin did David commit in his mother's womb?"


I'm not the writer of those quoted verses, you can read it in any version you please so my question again:

Are you now ready to learn study the Bible with JWs if YES rephrase your question if NO then keep whatever you believe i never quoted you in the first place!

MJBOLT:

typical zombie,nothing logical can come out of the head

MJBOLT:

when atheists use "oh my god",they mean it's unbelievable just like your religion and god.Believing something without evidence is foolishness,where is the proof that your god can create a living soul?the same god that cannot even heal an amputee.Science and Technology is far more superior to your useless god, everyday you use things created by science and technology to make your life easier and you come here to talk trash

Preciousgirl:


Your problem is comprehension

Preciousgirl:


The signs are key; this is a command by the Lord Jesus Himself.

The signs followed the Early Church

Mtschewwww:
The bible says in john 10:10 that
"the thief (devil) comes to steal, to kill and to destroy." It further said in Matthew 25:14.
"Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels."
The devil has been known to be a destroyer of peace and life, and hell fire has been said to be his final home specially prepared for him.
The issue is the devil has sent many souls to hell, and he still moves about seeking for more people to devour before he joins them there after his final judgement.
My question is what if the devil decides to repent of his evil ways and reconciles with God, what happens to those who died in sin and what happens to hell prepared for him and the fallen angels?

APC cannot survive without some fiber thuggery
What's going on in Nigeria is very disturbing.

pablobellins:
So have been re-reading the bible all over again. I noticed That God in the old testament liked and tolerated fetish things. What prompted me to create this thread is the height of it all so far which i read in exodus 24:8. Like, that is all the fetish things idol worshippers do these days.

Am also aware this fetishness is no longer practiced again today; what changed? Why did God decided to stop? If it was he who actually decided to put an end to it; can we then say God changed?

And please dont come and tell me about the blood of jesus.

Cos at a time; God actually do eat this sacrifices(Gen 15:9-10 skip to 17)

Now we are told our praises, worships and offerings is what God eats.

Sit at home,study your bible and pray that God should give you divine understanding.
Moreover, [i]there is no Church or Mosque in heaven[/i]. If God can see you when you commit sin in d hidden place of your room,home etc,why won't same God hear you when you pray from there.
Some pastors will be saying bad thing will happen to 'them' if one don't come to Sunday service. All na saka manje
Christianity is one of d many ways to make heaven. God reveals himself to different people in different ways.Our forefathers weren't Christians or Muslims but they have d idea of God and some of them are in heaven.

The Church today is just a social gathering not a worship center. God can be worshiped from anywhere.Poverty and ignorance make Church business trend in Africa.

frank317:


u seem to be confused at your own response.

let me jog ur memory a little.

you said this

you are meant to face challenges and overcome them just like anyone in the world. like i mentioned, such challenges u are meant to face include, hustling to earn a living, getting sick and taking medications, being affected by buharis dumb decision and covid19, facing sad news and feeling very bad. all these things are being faced by anyone who does not care about ur God and most always over come them.

then i said this

then u went all powerful on me and responded with u being able to raise the dead. how can someone who has accepted he faces such challenges as i mentioned above suddenly be able to raise the dead. and also claim he heals the sick... u have the power over death and sickness yet, a dumb decision from buhari affects u?

i dont know who is confused between u and the God u serve.

frank317:


Are challenges peculiar to Christians? What exactly makes u stand out as a Christian or as someone who knows the creator?
If u are meant to face challenges what then is the purpose of all the graces u mentioned above?

Since u are here to suffer why did the lord promise the he will supply ur all ur needs according to his riches in glory? Why all the promises of ask and it shall be given all over the place in the Bible.

So u are saying the grace u have been mentioning up and down is usless since it does not stop u from facing challenges like any other person that does not obey God?

What exactly do u have to offer as a christian on this earth?

frank317:


LOL... See classification of grace.

Yet anyone who experience all these graceses as classified above will still fall sick, will still dies, will hustle to make it in life, Will be affected by buhari's dumbness, will remain locked in because of covid 19, will experience loss of loved one and the sadness that follows...

U go de pack grace like Nigerian certificate, and u will never experience comfort in life like trumps son. Grace that cannot do anything for u, is that one grace?

TheBlessedHero:


is the answer to first question a YES?

what is personal grace? divine grace? grace of giving?
talking about grace of miracle, which "miracle" is peculiar to Christian alone?

Kobojunkie:

Honestly, what I know for a fact is that the definition of grace that is preached from pulpits around the world have nothing to do with grace as used in the word of God.
Mercy on the hand comes close, and even that should not be uselessly classified because it refers to God's compassion and forgiveness which He shows to all mankind.

Kobojunkie:

What is mercy? What is grace?
