There is a documentary called 'the secret' you need to watch it. It will change your thinking as to how faith works. No.. It's not a religious documentary but applies to every sphere of life

''for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever BELIEVES in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life''

Our faith is hinged and dependent on ACTUALLY BELIEVING Jesus. Just believe His son as sincere as possible.

Take His word as it is, believe it as you see it written in the scriptures.

But you know, the tricky part comes when we think we believe and later discover that we dont truly believe. Pls, make sure that you REALLY believe Him.

The secret is about laws of attraction, it uses elements of faith too but mostly thoughts.

Good evening bro, is really heart warming to see people like you still exist.

Your situation is quite painful because we all claim to worship God and because we do so to the best of our abilities, we expect God to have our back in return. The problem in this reasoning is the fact that people don't have a clear picture of God's way of doing things, hence many questions if God really exist and if he does why he doesn't care about our pains and concern. Most times this prompt the question "Is God uncaring and hard-hearted?"

To get more insight, I would want you to find the answer to this question: "Why do bad things happen to good people?"

As for your question on faith, from the little I know, if I should replace faith with other words I would instead use CONFIDENCE, TRUST, FIRM PERSUASION.

So in more simple terms, Faith can be defined as the basis for hope and evidence for conviction concerning something you don't see.

For Christians, the entire word of God, the Bible is a basis for Faith. Faith is based on concrete evidence.

No one on earth can deny he has faith, the person who may conderm faith as useless has faith one way or another, he may has faith in friends, scientists do have faith in the principles, he bases his new experiments on past discoveries, the farmer who plants has faith that given the right conditions his crops would blossom.

So in all, genuine and true faith is needed to worship God. (John 3:36, Hebrew 11:6). Faith is not static but grows as one comes to know and love God more (2Thessa 1:3).

It is not strange that people question the reason why one should have faith, funny enough, the bible itself said: "Faith is not the possession of all people" (2Thessa 3:2).

Finally, your Faith moves you to action, hence it is said that Faith without works is dead, (James 2:21-26).

The more I hear or read the word of god the more I lose faith in God. Because its contrary to scientific reality.

Omooba77:


Postive thinking.But if you dont believe can you think it

Omooba77:


Everybody was too dazed,even the General Hospital did not do anything. They only released him for burial

Pdizzle:


Being dazed doesn't change the fact that your family you should have requested for an autopsy. He could even have been poisoned.

Omooba77:


My brother if only you understand the circumstance.

I'm not crying more than the bereaved bro, i know it's a great pain to loose a beloved one. That notwithstanding, you should at least know the cause, the only situation when you leave such things to natural occurrence is if the autopsy leads nowhere. I know how african parents can be, they will be of the opinion that autopsy won't bring anyone back. There are so many things such thing reveals, such as unrevealed ailment history in the family. You didn't give science a chance, and you had to slot God in the ignorance gap.
