Favour!

Our Gos is awesome. In life, there are always some forces unseen that does things, either good or bad.
Believe me, knowing God plays a good part while ignorance plays another.

The difference between getting the job by the help of God and getting it by other unknown forces is 'peace of mind'.

There is once a politician that said, while in the university, and i quote, "if i fail before i graduate, then i believe there is God".
Behold, he never failed, thus believing there is no God, but the question is "after the certificate, will there be peace of mind for him?"

That you are typing this now, dont you think someone must have been responsible for that!
Have you even ever asked why some companies, while employing, just see a name, just because they love the spelling or something
just declared the person should be given the job... it must have been God. Although, it works hnad in hand with hard word...
Cos faith without work is dead!


My question to you op:
Have you ever witnessed a fatal accident, where every one died but one?
Why is the person not dead?

My own opinion: in EVERYTHING in this life, there is always a GOD FACTOR!

iamayodeji:


Exactly as expected.

Meanwhile , what is responsible for those that are still roaming the street without jobs?

Also, why did it take long for the guy cited in the example to get that job?

MY SNAG:

Did God actually help this guy? if in the affirmative, how and in what ways, given that:

1. He was randomly searching and applying for jobs for long and later succeeded accidentally and randomly. His case methinks is one of sheer luck, serendipity or chance.

2.If we give thanks to God for that, w then do we blame for many others roaming the streets probably with good grades yet no jobs.

Please share first hand experiences if any.

Contumely:



He may be alive just by accident. Nobody knows why because a priest could be among the dead ones.

donTbone:

Thats where God comes in. Him alone knows the reason.
When Myles Munroe died in the plane crash, i just asked why...
But it must av been for the best. Even been alive by accident, its by God alone!

Contumely:


You just said its accident and at the same time say it's God.

Again, If I am travelling with five kids and have an accident with three dying on the spot. Do I give God thanks for the two alive? If yes, who do I blame for the death of the three?

Typical Religious answer of the theists:
1. god works in mysterious ways (Duhhhh, millions of graduates are roaming the streets, some have given in to crimes, others suicide e.t.c what is mysterious about that)

2.The devil is the cause ( but someone CREATED this devil and this creator sits by and watch this devil cause this unemployment havoc, it must either be enjoying the havoc or he is simply powerless to stop it or neither of them really exist)

3. Destiny! ( So it is the fate of millions of unemployed graduates to remain unemployed, broke, dejected and helpless to the point of suicide. That is what their mission on this earth is abi? )

If you are really looking for who to blame, then read the News. Greece is having it real hard, oil prices are falling and affecting nations that depend entirely on it, zero economic policies in Nigeria that will create jobs, sacking of employees becoming a regular thing, 40% of the Nigerian graduates themselves have zero skill and can not be employed, others are just too selective, many are spending their youth defending thieving politicians online and offline e.t.c

It's part of the "Name it and claim it " Theology.
Another proof that faith is just simply extreme, fearful doubt.

I laugh when I ask my family members why l enjoy good health, enjoy a peaceful and satisfactory life , despite the fact that I neither pray to nor acknowledge any long dead Jewish Palestinian and of his schizophrenic sky papa, they ( my christian family members and relatives) claim that their prayers is what is sustaining me.

They even want to rob me of credit for my own life.

What a bunch.

And you never believed that their prayers have been sustaining you?
I fear what is gonna happen when they stop praying!

donTbone:

Wouldnt wanna make so much arguments on this. To have a better understanding, read the story of Job in the bible if you are a christian.
If otherwise, just search for Job in the bible and read his story!

Lol.

Don't delude yourself that you made any sense in this post, because you didn't.

Do me a favor , and lets substitute Tooth fairy for every point where you mentioned god , and then lets see what your posts looks like, how sensible or senseless it is.

If you do this, then you might get an idea of just how atheists read and interpret your posts and views.

I still can't believe why christian people don't believe in the Tooth fairy, despite the fact that it is the earliest and most widespread and consistent religion in the world.

As i stated earlier, our God is awesome.
If Ben Carson didnt start as a dull boy (which he is not) and the mother seeing a need to help him
in his studies, he might not be what he is today!

If Albert Einstein, Steve jobs and the likes are not high school drop out, they might not have make that much impact.

If GEJ hasnt schooled in Otuoke and trek without sandals, he might not have became a president!

Every big venture, investment, sky scraper, big building all start from a small picture with a strong believe.
Those roaming the street are not daft, not lazy and not clowns. Just that they fail to put to use their God given
strength and ability (the brain).

Even before God comes into the picture, we have to draw the picture for him to carry out.

Things needed to succeed!
1. Plan well
2. Prepare extensively
3. Pray with believe

hahn:


Albert Einstein and Steve Jobs didn't "pray with belief" to your god. How come they became successful?

donTbone:

Never mistake the place of prayer for the place of responsibility.
They were successful cos of hardwork... If they were God believing people, who knows where they would av been now!

For whatever we do, jus remember ETERNITY!

hahn:


Lol @ bolded. They are in our history books. Where else could they have been?

Your pastor's preach to you followers with ipads created by atheists. Doesn't that tell you something?

donTbone:

Where they have been... i mean "HEAVEN OR HELL"

...created by Atheist in hell for Pastors to make heaven!
And who says Atheist created the Ipads

You mioght even have reasoned that the pastors shouldnt use any phone!
They are humans like us... The level of grace just made the difference!
