Why Doesn't God Answer Mankind Like Earthly Fathers by deleib(m): 9:11pm On Sep 18, 2015 |
The scripture call the believers sons of God. It also admonishes us to ask and it shall be granted to us. Now why is it that God doesn't grant our prayer 4 a long time unlike our earthly father who does something in his capacity for us at our request? I've been asking God to help me with a little thing now 4 a long time, He doesn't answer me. It makes me feel bad. Where's God? 2 Likes |

Try working towards getting it, the present can not come directly from Him yet but if you want to get it, work for it and then you will have it. 1 Like |

James 4:3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures. Matthew 7 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? 1 Like |

If someone's father or just any person were to say "I love you and you must love me too and do everything i say without questioning any of my dictates or i will torture you for the rest of your existence" We would as a sane human society cry out and point out the fact "That is not love but rather is sheer abuse" But apparently and surprisingly this form of abuse is ok to many if its coming from a deity.. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

UncleSnr: The concept of God as laid out by religions is very preposterous. "I know your problems and i can solve them but first you have to beg, yes beg for it, grovel, shout and cry for it, yes yes continue praising and begging me, oh yes pay your tithes and dues and then continue begging me, go on your knees and pour tears, stay under the rain and sun and beg me, yes yes grovel and beg for it. . . ok i will think about it or better still screw you!" That is narcissism ... wonder if earthly fathers behaved like that what we probably would think of them... of course it should be ok if a deity does it. 10 Likes 5 Shares |

That's not who God is, it's religion that has succeeded in painting God like that. It's a pity and I don't for once blame anyone who dosent believe in God after hearing all these stuffs about rules and regulation one has to keep or else God strikes you, atheists are bolder than Christians in this aspect because they make more sense than most Christians who dosent even know the true nature of God. If ihadn't known this truth about God, you tell me that i need to worship someone who will strike me anytime i don't live up to his standard, i wouldn't want to do anything with that thing no matter what i will gain from him. But that's not who God is truly, he is not an angry God or a wicked or mean God as 99.99% of most religious doctrines teaches today. How I wish I can have a platform to let share with people on the true nature of God. God is a good God. Op, there could be thousand and one thing that could be preventing your already answered prayers from manifesting from the spiritual realm to the physical realm. I don't know where to start from but you we can talk if you feel like cost all on me.... just let me know if your mind is free to that effect. |

UncleSnr:Lol... do you for once think that man can cover God or defend God? He dosent need me nor anyone to do that. Am not covering up anyone, you are suprised because you probably haven't seen anyone talk about God in such a manner. Am not trying to prove anything to you either because it won't make sense to you. But i know that God is a good God and am sorry but your opinion dosent count, simple. Whether 7billion people dosent believe that or not, i don't give a rip. Now that's awesome. |

bxcode: Nigga, what other platform do u want again, is this not a platform? What so complex about a prayer being answered, I mean!! If an ominipotent God has answered a prayer, what other protocols are needed again, why should there be a 1001 thing from preventing an answered prayer? Let me tell u one secret, in medical school, prayers are not included among the option of modalities of treatment. Its so funny that this religious people havnt performed any miracle(proof for answer prayer) on hospital beds. My brother do what u have to do, for if there's a God, the universe is so big that ourequest is probably irrelevant. |

bxcode: I understand ur position,I once shared that faith and talked that way too bxcode I believe u are a Christian, and I appreciate ur conviction. But What would u say about islamist fundamentalist and their killing spree all in the name of following their believe, what would u say about worshipers of men(satgurumaraji) or what would u say about worshipers of self(budhism)? My objection is about prayers being answered by a God, if truely there's is anything of such, I am yet to see. I mean! The hospitals are there. |
