MzNelly: You can't compare God with your lecturer. He is mighty and supreme. He knows everything. Why did he even bother creating the devil when he knew he'd later challenge him in the first place? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:21am On Dec 31, 2014 |
hahn: God did not create the Devil. He created an angel who became ambitious and challenged Him. He didn't know nor want that to happen. Things just turned out that way. |

MzNelly: You have just shot yourself in the leg. He didn't know? That's blasphemy. God knows all. Point of correction. If he didn't then there would be no use worshipping him since he has flaws similar to humans 1 Like |

hahn: LOL Bro, God is not one to predetermine. Knowing what Satan was gonna do and creating him is st.upidity nau. C'mon, are you telling me that God knows what Hahn is gonna do this time tomorrow? |

LordIbro: Well then if it's all a matter of luck then why pray or fast? And I'm atheist, not pagan. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by esere826: 11:37am On Dec 31, 2014 |
tosag: My initial reaction was to question why you are praying for a job from God, why are you fasting, and why are you going for deliverance but then I recall the scripture saying that a drowning man clings even to straws I do understand the desperation. I've been there, and still go through such straw clutching moments sometimes without the fasting and deliverance sha all I get back is a deafening silence But so far, I've noticed something As long as I just keep on pushing for what I want being confident that God is not like the proverbial native doctor that says "ah, why did you eat egg in the morning? ahh,..why did you not wake up at 12 midnight on the dot to recite so and so incantations?" ideas begin to sip in gradually I begin to act on them, ,...and soon I get results. Probably not exactly what I want, but its likeness Like TD Jakes would say, "success does not look like success when you are there" Meanwhile during the process of 'waiting' I noticed that I do have some form of sustenance. If not materially, then a kind of strong fortress within me that stands tall against the storms. I am pretty sure that you have friends and family that are presently standing behind you that itself is a gift which you should be thankful for and learn from, for now for soon, whether God be for you or not (...I believe that he is for you) You'll be the one supporting others ..cheers 1 Like 1 Share |

sonOfLucifer: But, doesn't that amount to betraying your god, Lucifer? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Atigba: 11:46am On Dec 31, 2014 |
tosag:This is nonsense God doesn't give job if you re praying and waiting for God to give you job I assure you will die in poverty It is people that people like that later turn to atheist after so many years of prayers without answers I will advice you look for something to be doing first no matter how small And most importantly vote the right candidate in next general election Government gives job not God |

MzNelly: The chronological order doesn't fit the series of events documented in the Bible against physical and scientifically correct data available |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:46am On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:My God isnt silly like the other jealous ones. That is why no one ever kills in his name. He can not be betrayed. He neither gains nor loses any aspect of himself to our unbelief. We only end up hurting ourself if we choose to walk in darkness rather than light. 1 Like |

There are huge time gaps present |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:48am On Dec 31, 2014 |
neoapocalypse: Okay. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 11:49am On Dec 31, 2014 |

MzNelly:I hate when you do this. |

Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:04pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:"For God so love the world" d world here is it the earth or people? Ooh oo its people. So i ask again the world in the quoted scripture is it d people or terrestial powers? |

starlingslimnet: Come again. I swear, you've confused me. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:06pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: Okay? is that all you have to say. From creation to present day, the Bible doesn't put the age of the earth above 20000 years whereas evidence has shown man ( prehistoric man - Neanderthals ) to be older and the earth older than that. Racial distribution Evolution Historical facts all point to inaccuracies in Bible facts I haven't even started with controversies found in the Bible |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:06pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:Let me xplain it more: God create Lucifer but Lucifer sin and his name was changed to Satan. God did not create Satan but He does made Lucifer. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:10pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:U said "The world is in the power of the evil one" and u said the "world" here is the earth,so i asked in John 3:16 "For God so Love the world" "the world" here means what? Earth or people" |

neoapocalypse:My Brother clear ur head very well God does not contradict himself but ur knowledge can contradict his word since the veil remains on ur lost soul. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Weah96: 12:14pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly: So not only did he not know what Lucifer was planning, he also didn't want Lucifer planning things of that nature? So why should a human pray to that kind of person, someone whose will and wishes can be overridden by a mere product he created in the laboratory. Will Bill Gates create a laptop that then starts to hunt down his own family members, exclusively? Bill is human and knows what to put in the product to reduce the risk of it killing him. Who is the skydaddy who designs a product only for the product to hunt down his family members and do horrible things to them? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:15pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
starlingslimnet: We're saying the same damn thing. Satan is in control of the earth/or the people in it. What difference does it make? |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:15pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
starlingslimnet: You want to take the easy way out |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:16pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
neoapocalypse: What more would you have me say? You're not being very explicit, you know. Tell me the controversies. |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:18pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
Weah96: The laptop you speak of is a MACHINE! We are humans. They don't have free will, we do! God didn't program Satan's actions, just like he doesn't program ours. If he took away our free will, do you know what would become of us? We'd be just as good as ROBOTS! |
Re: I Don't Understand God by Nobody: 12:24pm On Dec 31, 2014 |
MzNelly:We are not dear,look deep into the mystery of God. "The world is in the Power of the evil one" is reffering to the elemental spirits of d world they are totally commited to carry out the order of satan. Let me reveal one weakness of satan to u,He is powerless but become powerful when u ascribe power to him. As curny as He is he has not a single power over the heart of a man. But the Holy Spirit have the Power to convict the heart of a man irrespective of dat man's will,who can resist His will? But satan,a NO from u he can't force u but only flee. I wish the church can see how weak satan is than ascribing what he does not have to him |
