Stark22:
I'm no longer close to God cos I'm thinking like an unbeliever these days. Like I said earlier, reading atheist threads drifts me further away but there's this conscience that keeps bugging me about God's existence.

I've got a lot of things to say about faith in God but I don't want to go off point concerning my plight.

Well, I'd say it's lack of focus which makes me to have no interest in studying my courses.

What's a career without passion?
Some people studying medicine don't really have the passion for it

The worst thing to happen to a believer is to give up at the finish line.....that's why fellowship is important..... by the time u here testimonies... it would uplift ur spirit.... things are happening bro and God is indeed Good...don't be discouraged, have faith...


love brings about passion, and everything is lovable depending on u ...ur mind set, tink about the Gud part of the course ...the knowledge u actually are gaining and how its improved u...tink about what u can become...

Stark22:
Chemical engineering
Passion-Computer science
Labour market- I thought about pharmacy though

hmmmmm....woow,and they arint related at all....



anyways ,do u know yah course is a wonderful course? a lot will wish they study ur course ...and honestly there's noting special about computer science, u can take up a few professional courses in about computer.... get the computer science students scheme of work and go through it,am sure u will fyd a few professional courses that are also in line with what u would ave learnt as a computer scientist ....u can also take and online course if u have a system..reg with an abroad skulls dat offer online education..... but still try ur best to get a gud certificate ... really a lot of people are saying forget skull n start a job.....starting a job ain't the probs ....its how to get the capital... if ur parents are well to do,after ur professional courses start something u love doing ....

Stark22:
I stopped reading the Word few weeks back cos I feel it's not really working again.
Fellowship? , I don't really do fellowship.

Prayer? I stopped any form of serious prayers
My memory is quite okay, it's just that I'm not channeling it towards this course because of lack of interest.

Lack focus just made me stagnant.

U should get back to reading the word....and praying too....now ur the indoor type....trust me .
.that doesn't help
..go out,relate with top graders in your department... their passion might ignite urs....am sure if u ask them ,some too may be lyk u....they found their self in that course but they are still doing great......its all about ur mind set... that's why ah say ....love ur course... make it yah gf
..lolz....go to fellowships bro.....ur sounding lyk a Christian born into a Christian home...and u feel all ur parents ave tot u is enough for yah.....study ,fellowship with others..ur course can't be dah bad...what course are u studying and what did u want to study at 1st
.

Stark22:
Thanks sir but I don't know where to draw motivation from again, just like I'm lost in my own world. And you talked about the God factor, I'm beginning to doubt that he cares or exists, do your best and leave the rest to God, they say. What of people that don't come to class, the ones that don't even grab the concept of a particular course, they make it and it's not pride but I know myself.

What if fate is trying to tell me something?

Writing exams without reading for hours was usually sufficient to an extent.

It hurts when people around you see you as intelligent and your world crashes when you can't show for it via exams.

I've never been tagged dull by anyone but that's what I see in myself with what has been happening.

I don't party, I have few friends, I'm usually on my own so I've got enough time for excellence but it's not working sir.

my dear,God exist and his not asleep either......hmmm,I understand how u feel.....my be ur doing somin wrong...... are u really close to God as much as u say,do u fellowship?....do u read the word every day ? And even have at least a small 10mins prayer every day.....tell me what exactly ur experiencing.... do u forget easily or what....what's the difficulty u really facin??

eph12:
The pressure will come but it's your life not theirs to live. Graduating with a 3rd class and not having a backup plan will give you hypertension o. Unless you will go for post degree. But since you say you don't have any interest in this course I doubt you will be successful in the post degree too.

if u start loving the course now...perhaps u can still make it via yah PD....u can apply PD and write jamb,just incase they don't give u a course u lyk at jamb....but u fit just close eye and get serious and do this once n for all....

firstly on ur own...there's noting u can do to boost ur result but with GOD... all things are possible..... if u can trust in him...uile be amazed. ...




on the other hand,u should write jamb and choose a course u like...pray to God for ur heart desire to be accomplished, even if ur not given ur course of choice, love what ever ur given and work hard for a gud result..




if u must know..... life isint about what u learnt in skull....its about wat u love doing, what u can do,and how nicely u do wat u do......all the successful businessmen u know...am sure non of them is an employee....they are bosses ...they created their own ideas and they are making it big...but all the same try ur best to a Gud certificate cause its still alittle bit important ... .






in yah next institution, engage ur self in a fellowship.....pray to God and read the word of God at least every day and read ur books with the word every day....uile see the change. in yah life am sure. ..

Helivesinme73:
welcome dearii

tnx ma'am ,how was ur day?

Seun:
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is probably the most important event in Christianity. Apostle Paul said, "If Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith" (I Cor 15:14). He also said, "if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins". Did it really happen, though? Let's look at the evidence.

1. The Empty Tomb And The Men In White

Mark, which was the first gospel to be written, describes the incident in chapter 16:

Is it reasonable to accept this as evidence that Jesus rose from the dead? Let's see.

Jesus was the T B Joshua of his time. He came from a humble background, was loved by the masses because of his miracle ministry, and was hated by the religious establishment which didn't accept him as a true man of God and felt that his teachings were unscriptural.

Now lets imagine that T. B Joshua died, and then 3 days later the 3 women who were closest to him when he was alive in his ministry came to you with this story: That they went to T B Joshua's grave to pray and lay flowers, but when they got there, they saw that the grave had been opened, the body missing and a young guy in a white suit was sitting there. And the guy told them that T B Joshua had risen from the dead.

Would it be reasonable to believe that T B Joshua had risen from the dead on the basis of this testimony? Wouldn't you be suspicious that T B Joshua's body had been stolen by his top pastors to make it appear that he had risen? That the man in white was just an accomplice of the thieves? That maybe the women were hallucinating due to their grief, or simply lying to hype their hero and crush?

Luke's Gospel, written about 10 years later, describes the same incident thus:

Notice how the story has been altered to solve the issues with the first one, and spiced up?

Imagine if, in the hypothetical case of TB Joshua's alleged resurrection, the women who told you about his empty grave came back 10 years later to tell the same story. But this time, instead of a young man in a white suit who was sitting by the grave when they arrived, they claim that there was no one at T B joshua's grave initially and then suddenly, two men in glowing suits as bright as the sun (implying angels) appeared before them and gave them a scriptural lesson. Would those changes make the story more believable to you, or less so?

2. Appearing To His Closest Followers

According to Mark's Gospel,

In short, Jesus' closest followers claimed that he appeared to them at various times after his body went missing. Jesus closest followers had everything to lose by his death, and everything to gain by getting people to believe the resurrection story. They had sold all their posessions and left their families and professions to join Jesus' ministry. With his death, that ministry was finished, but the ressurection story brought it back to life. Knowing about this serious conflict of interest, it reasonable to accept their testimony as evidence that the resurrection actually happened?

If TB Joshua died and the top pastors in his church said he appeared to them, would you believe it for one moment?

3. His Appearance To 500 Believers

According to 1 Corinthians 15:6,

This would seem like the least weak evidence for the resurrection, due to the sheer number of potential witnesses, until you start to wonder why none of the Gospels mentioned it. Not even imaginative Luke of the robes as white as lightening. Why would all the Gospel writers have choosen to leave out what would have been their strongest evidence? 500 witnesses! Because it didn't happen? Because it was too early to tell such a big lie and get away with it? I don't know.

And even if we want to at issume that it happened, we must not forget that it would be quite easy for any illusionist to stage the appearance of Jesus to people who strongly want to believe that he is still alive. Benny Hinn tells a story about Jesus appearing during one of his crusades, and people believe it.

Conclusion:
The evidence for the resurrection of Jesus is a bunch of testimonies attributed to people who had every reason to lie during a period when people were far more superstitious and gullible than we are today because they didn't have science. It's not sufficient to convince an objective modern person that a 3 day old corpse whose brain and heart would have decayed considerably actually came back to life, held meetings in person with various people, and then ascended into outer space. Or ... What do you think?

this is nonsense, u don't know what ur saying... mtcheeeew

olajazz:
career like wat?

,ah don't get u .

Mhoxune:
Choosing a career is not really an easy thing to do because, I believe it's something you must have been nursing for a long time. Well, I have just two points:

First of all, it's a thing of the mind; what do you dream of becoming? Ask yourself.

Secondly, what are your talents? Can you align your talents with your dreams? If you can, then, you can start building a career with that.

I hope it helps.

wooow. very helpful dear....nice ,thanks alot...

Mhoxune:

Future accountants! help me understand this
debit and credit stuff in book keeping!

I'm going thru on d job training in accounting,

why do I post cash/ for sales on the Dr side and expenses/bills on the Cr side

isn't Dr money going out And Cr money coming in?

Thank you guys!

dearii.....according to the accounting rules the Dr side is the receiving side while the Cr side is the giving side .. so when ever ur firm is receiving money u record it on the debit side while if ur spending money on something lyk purchases u record the transaction on the credit side.

no body has answered my question here dough...
