The last time I checked, the people that brought Christianity to Africa were responsible for the slave trade, killed a lot of leaders who opposed them, raped our resources and women but I am supposed to be the bad one without morals for not believing in their religion

Please make it make sense

Morals, while objectively commendable and encouraged, are simply not good enough to reconcile a person back to GOD since the fall and physical + spiritual demise of mankind in Genesis! We need the Savior, the CHRIST, the Lord YESHUA! (Acts 4:12). This is the truth!

Kissing (romantically, among the unmarried) is a bad idea... apart from any possible physical consequences (diseases or pathogens: https://www.londondoctorsclinic.co.uk/blog/conditions-you-can-catch-from-kissing/ ), it often incites (because it typically doesn't stop there)... further physical intimacy / lust and then fornication...

"Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body." - 1 Corinthians 6:13

"Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

I got married two months ago. I am 7 months pregnant my husband didn't tell me he had a child from his previous relationship and the child has a disability celebral palsy. Her mother came to dropped her off in my house saying she has done enough and she's tired it is now hubby turn to take care of her.

The child can't do anything for herself she can't sit, talk, walk and she does toilet in her clothes. I can't do it anymore I love children because I have taken care of my own nieces and nephews before I would have taken care of her if she was normal but taking care of a child in this question is hard and if her own mother has had enough she abandoned her and why would I kill myself taking care of her in my condition.

I want to divorce and go back to my village I have told him i am leaving next month. He is pleading with me not to leave him that he will take the child somewhere else but the place is not free he has to be paying like 200k monthly for them to take care of the child and he doesn't even have that amount of money because he is not financial stable.

I will stick to my decision but I want to know what will other people do in my situation.

It is not easy... but please pray continually to the Lord God for wisdom and strength. Look to the word of God for answers, not to people.

Ayojb:
Hi, I will make this short. I believe in paying tithes. I attend a Redeem parish and if you are familiar with the RCCG tithe payment system, you will know that we pay with tithe cards, given numbers, it’s quite organized.

But then my church is a relatively small church.There is no way you’d pay tithe without the ushers knowing it’s your card and all.

It was not really a problem for me at first. Since I was a student and my tithes ain’t much and all. But then I started making money and paying tithes.

Since it was a small church, I believed I started getting undue attention. Ushers hailing me cos there is no way I can pay or even transfer without getting my tithe card. Soon enough, the head usher started asking me to borrow him money consistently. I had to stop. Not because of the loans but I don’t like undue attention especially about my finances and we live in trying times, days when everyone can’t be trusted. I just don’t feel comfortable with the ushers knowing my monthly income and all.


I wish my church don’t use tithe cards and we can just drop it anonymously like other churches. What do you think I can do if I wish to continue paying tithes?


Thanks.

"Alms definition, money, food, or other donations given to people in need; anything given as charity" - Dictionary.com

"Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly." - Matthew 6:1-4

Thus, one would want to be as discreet as possible. There are many people - beggars, orphans, disabled, etc... that could use any help possible. Note that the longest lasting - eternal - help and lover we can show one another, beyond that which nourishes the body - is sharing the word of GOD / the good news of the Bible - which is able (Hebrews 4:12-13, Romans 10:17) to save the soul after the body is no more.

2nd king chapter 8:26
2nd chronicles 22:2
same person different years

+++

"The books of Kings and Chronicles cover much of the same history of God’s chosen people. The books of 1 and 2 Kings take the perspective of the northern kingdom of Israel, and the books of 1 and 2 Chronicles focus more on the southern kingdom of Judah. But the same kings are mentioned in both histories. There is some question about King Ahaziah’s age when he started to reign (this is King Ahaziah of Judah, not King Ahaziah of Israel). One record (2 Kings 8:26) says Ahaziah was 22 years old at the start of his reign, but the other record (2 Chronicles 22:2) says he was 42 years old—at least in some translations.

All translations of 2 Kings 8:26 are in agreement that Ahaziah of Judah was 22 years old at the start of his reign. And most translations of 2 Chronicles 22:2 also have his age at 22. However, some versions, such as the KJV, NKJV, ASV, and NRSV, state that Ahaziah acceded to the throne when he was 42 years old, not 22.

There are several theories to explain the discrepancy between 2 Kings 8:26 and 2 Chronicles 22:2. Here are four of them:


1. Second Kings 8:26 records when Ahaziah began co-ruling with his father Joash, while Second Chronicles 22:2 records when Ahaziah began ruling on his own once his father Joash died.

2. The 42-year age is that of Ahaziah’s mother, Athaliah. This theory is based on the peculiar wording of the Hebrew in 2 Chronicles 22:2, which literally says that the king was “a son of forty-two years.”

3. The 42 years is a reference not to Ahaziah’s age but where he came in the history of his family’s dynasty. Ahaziah was in the family of King Ahab of Israel, which 2 Chronicles 22:2–3 points out. That dynasty began with his grandfather Omri. The lengths of the reigns of all the kings in this family are as follows:
Omri — 6 years
Ahab — 22 years
Ahaziah (of Israel) — 2 years
Joram (or Jehoram) — 12 years
Total — 42 years

Since Ahaziah began to reign in Judah in the last year of Joram’s reign in Israel (2 Kings 8:25), Ahaziah would have ascended the throne in the 42nd year of that dynasty in Israel, which explains his being called “a son of forty-two years.” Ahaziah was a “son” of the dynasty of Omri, which was in its 42nd year when he took the throne. If this theory is correct, then 2 Kings 8:26 gives us Ahaziah’s age, and 2 Chronicles 22:2 gives us the age of his family’s rule.

4. Somewhere in the centuries-long copying process, a scribe made an error, changing the “22 years” of 2 Chronicles 22:2 to “42 years.” Not all the Hebrew manuscripts reflect the error, as a couple of ancient translations, the Syriac and the Arabic, each have “22 years,” thus bringing 2 Chronicles 22:2 and 2 Kings 8:26 into perfect agreement.

Adding support to this fourth theory is the biblical historian’s note in 2 Kings 8:17 that Ahaziah’s father, Joram, died at the age of 40. Therefore, Ahaziah could not have been 42 years old when he took over. Joram could not have had children before he himself was born, and so Ahaziah’s age when he began to reign must have been 22.

The original manuscript of each book of the Bible, being directly inspired by God, was free from all error. However, a few copyist errors crept into the Hebrew manuscripts as they were passed down from one generation to the next. In this case, the numerical notations in question varied so slightly that a smudge of ink, a wrinkle, or a tear on one copy could have led a scribe to write “42” rather than “22.”

The Bible today is just as authoritative as it was when originally written. We can completely trust the Bible as being God’s message to us. God’s Word endures forever, despite the occasional scribal mistake. Such errors are readily identified, and the issues they give rise to can be resolved."

We have many Christian sisters and Christian brothers who are not virgins, some are awesome people. You might even see a decent-looking and committed Christian sister, and when you confirm, she is not a virgin. Should virginity still be preached or should we just go by love and move on?

Again, does not being a virgin have side effect in marriage?

It should be preached and strongly encouraged because:

1. It is the word of GOD - declared repeatedly throughout the Holy Bible, and
2. Fornication is cosmic sin and comes with serious/ detrimental consequences.... one does oneself no good by engaging in sexual relations outside of the marriage bed.

The intent may be commendable, but it is good and important for us to share the truth / the gospel properly.

Only GOD can truly make a person born again by giving him/her eternal life in the spirit by the HOLY SPIRIT (John 3:5-7, Galatians 4:6) through the hearing of the word of GOD (Romans 10:17), according to HIS perfect will (Romans 9:15-16, Ephesians 1:11) Therefore, we would do well to cry out to GOD for HIS mercies because "The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy." - (Psalm 145:8 )

"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." - John 1:12-13

"No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." - John 6:44

To think that we can just unilaterally make a few statements and we are all set is not the gospel of the Lord YESHUA, the CHRIST - as such would be our work, but salvation is by grace alone.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." - Ephesians 2:8-9

"Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." - Matthew 5:38-49
