there is a fat difference between HOLDING ON TO FAITH DURING HARDSHIP and rubbing it in peoples' face by saying that they are in a bad spot because they offended God or their ways are not right with God. Go back and read again from both sides and adjust your selectivity.

Bitterness? Anger? Those are your interpretations and not necessarily my reality. I am actually busy at work online and void of emotions but it is okay if you actually need to be emotional before you write or point out facts without pampering anyone.

That's what most religions teach. If you don't believe it then just live and let live. Do you mock Hindus and tell them their gods aren't real? Why does somebody else's beliefs bother you so much that you have to insult the person?

Ps calling someone a bastard unprovoked is an emotional response. Your message is oozing emotions.

How did you get all of that from that 1 picture?!?! [/b]

It baffles me where all that religious talk came from in a picture that clearly shows how someone is using the heat from a cooking pot to melt left over oils that have congealed in the plastic bottles.
People just write things to bamboozle others and make themselves look sophisticated.... but we see through the shenanigans.

Nope. if I see a mad person and call the person a mad person, I am simply placing the noun as it fits the persona. Do I need emotions to do so? Maybe you do, I don't.

Pain and tragedy don’t mean someone isn’t a child of God. Bad things happen to good people, that’s life, not proof of who’s holy or not....
I wonder why you are telling me this. Am I the one who is saying other people are facing tragedy because of their sin or are you just confused and in a rush to comment and take sides?

Brother, you need to calm down. You guys take things too seriously in this space. If you read carefully from the beginning, I was the one who mentioned bad spots due to the sins I’ve committed. I’m not being selective here; we’re all just here to learn. If you look closely, I even bolded the part where you called her an insensitive bastard. You shouldn’t have said that. That was the only reason I quoted you — if not, I wouldn’t have mentioned you at all.

Did you see how they bamboozled me! 😂

I didn't know what the bottles were for. The text cracked me up though had me thinking my papa was rich but nobody told me.

Hmmmm. Be nice! The world is hard already and we don't know what people are going through nowadays. People come online looking for a community and a place to relax.

You actually took your time to write nicely and that is the only reason I would "sheath" my keypad for now and swallow further comments (against my will) . Enjoy your day.

The context wasn’t properly understood, and I think he has changed it, just want us to have a clearer conversation, free from insults. We can talk and still be respectful while trying to learn from each other. Let’s keep it civil.

I hate when people change their threads mid way! Nothing but confusion.

@OP if you want to talk religion there's a religion section! This is romance and jokes section.

Na only you be child of God.
Those that got killed right in the church are not.
Those that faced tragedy and ended up in IDP camps to become sex slaves for morning food are not.
Those that got cancer and other deadly diseases before the age of 15 are not.
Those that fell victim to scams and bank wipes are not.
Those that suddenly lost all their life saving and entire families to robbers and kidnappers are not.

Holier than thou. Na only you get redeemer.
What an insensitive bastard.

See them in severe pains. Instead of asking HOW you can have a covenanted and personal relationship with God, you are hating on me. A thousand shall fall by my left and 10 thousand by my right yet It shall not come near me. That you choose by you actions and words to be among the thousands that will die is not my problem, neither does it stop me from professing God's promises for me.

P.S, I'm not a bàstard, I'm a Son. Recognise it! smiley

Here we go! the righteous prick that God loves more than every other person is up again. Say hello to yourself when the day comes.
Na you God promise dey work for abi but we have seen a million of your type and you just happen to be the smallest of them. The good news is that you will grow up someday.

Hating on you? Will you ever attain such relevance?
you have a better relationship with God than other people right? Funny.

No one is taking sides with anyone. Your bitterness and frustration is showing. No where did I say that servants of God do not through their own fair share of troubles, neither did I say any of the vile stuff quoted above which are just a reflectionof your rotten insides. I only pointed out that as a servant of God, my life and that others that genuinely serve God means something to God and I will not die a meaningless death. The problem is not with God. HIS faithfulness is constant. The problem is with men and the quality of service offered. I am not replying you for your own sake, you sound like a lost cause but i could be wrong and besides, who am I to judge... I am replying you because someone somewhere may see this exchange and wonder why I have such confidence. It is because I KNOW MY GOD! A knowledge i am always willing to share with anyone who asks me. That's something you cannot say for yourself hence your bitterness. I understand.

Kikikiiii cheesy

Severe pains. I'm not righteous but I am working on it. Continue spewing hate. Your father is very proud of you.

God has good plans for all of us, but sin is often the architect of the struggles we face in life. It took me many years to realize this truth, but along the way, I found myself deeply immersed in the consequences of my own wrongdoings. Now, I am left in a space of seeking God's forgiveness, trusting that in His perfect time.

Those unbelievers, who flourish while the faithful waits (seemingly invein), do they not sin? Or are the consequences for sins only meant for the believers?
