Hello All, I was discussing with a sister who is well over 40 like mid 40s or so still waiting on the Lord for the right partner. I mentioned to her that instead of waiting for a man to come and lets be honest chances are low even if there is nothing the Lord cannot do, that since she wants a child in the least, she can decide to do IVF, get a sperm donor ad inseminate or in the least go for adoption. That will give her at least little comfort and a sense of responsibility as a woman. She said her beliefs/church wouldn't accept it. Since the topic was very personal, I didn't want to press further. I just let it go. But to everyone, even if it isn't the perfect will of God, and I know it is best a child grows in a two -parent home but in as much as she isn't fornicating with any of these suggestions I mentioned, is there any doctrinal/belief problem with my suggestions among Christians? |

In these last days perilous (hard) times truly has come and many are really turning away from Christianity. See this thing called finances eh, any Christian that takes it so casually would find himself paying dearly for it. Don't be fooled, mammon is so powerful that Jesus said you can't serve God and mammon because in the pursuit of money to help yourself and your family, you will engage yourself in things that God abhors. Even if you don't have the mind to do evil, when you serve God as a civil servant for 35 years and you can't even build a house for yourself, do you really think your children will join you to serve that God? I truly believe that the seat of Satan himself is in the economy. Manipulate the economy enough to make Christians suffer and you just wait for them, they will turn turn back to Egypt. 2 Likes |

I am just curious. It's not our prayer but there would be people that will still have access to the internet when the rapture happens. Who will update this thread when it happens? Certainly not me I pray. Just need to put this out here so that when it happens, the internet will never forget that we warned the world. |

CBNwords:Lecturing job ain't easy like that o. If you're not ready to study like a scholar, forget any benefits attached to it. Since your heart didn't go for it at first, forget about it. Don't go and be a lecturer and use the anger to frustrate innocent students. E better say you relax for CBN or FIRS for years than to be lecturer and for the same years, you go dy fight to be Prof with better hardwork. I'm happy you rejected it so that those that have the passion and are grateful for the job can take it to make our academic space better. Just like your 'Angel' said, go for what you love doing and are satisfied with. May your opportunity not be lost forever. So take heart. ![]() 12 Likes

Hmmmmm... I believe the trinity works in dispensations to reveal a certain nature of their Godlike characteristics to man. God the Father was dominant on earth right from the beginning till Jesus was born. He showed the dimension of God as a God who abhors sin, who is a consuming fire and a man of war. When Jesus was born, He revealed a dimension of God as a God who even though abhorred sin, was also a God of love, who could forgive sin and who you could draw close to. Notice that that was why the Israelites especially the Pharisees and keepers of the law couldn't just understand what Jesus was saying and never wanted to agree. Because they were already used to the dimension of God the Father. Now, Jesus had to go so that the comforter could reveal the dimension of God that we all know of right now. Notice that even though Jesus carried every attribute of God, He was limited by Human nature. So He had to go so that the Helper could come us and be with us forever. John 14 from vs 16 - And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever. So Jesus had to go so that the Holy Spirit can come and dwell with the believer, lead and guide Christians, and empower them with spiritual gifts and in addition to what the Holy Spirit does from that scripture the OP quoted. If you understand this, you'll understand why a Christian in China can be studying the Scriptures and God (the Holy Spirit) will teach him lots of things. You in Nigeria will discuss will study and still receive the same kind of revelation from that same scripture. I've walked into churches countless numbers of time and it was if the pastor was preaching from my quiet time notebook. Amazing right? ![]() I hope my knowledge in part helped a little. 1 Like |

freeborn02:Perhaps you have not really stayed in the midst of the brethren dwelling together and eating together in unity or you are not being truthful to yourself but have it your way. Trust me, nothing can beat physical fellowship. Quote me anywhere. Cheers. |

Timothyoj:Agreed. But no Christian can really grow independent of others. Let's say you can, what about others? You have a responsibility to admonish other Christians as Christ did for us. We need each other. 1 Like |

freeborn02:Agreed. Thank God for technology but you'll agree with me that there's this corporate anointing and atmosphere that abounds when brethren gather together to sing and pray to God that cannot be substituted for Christian messages and video. 1 Like |

What wrong with Nigeria is more spiritual than physical. Only if people knew the kind of diabolical things these politicians do to influence the mind of people during election periods. If not, what plausible reason will someone that was in this country from 2015 - 2019 vote in the present government again for 1k and empty promises that they know at the polling unit? Parliamentary or whatever, this country will remain the same until people wake up to the truth. Majority of minds have really been enslaved in this country. 2 Likes |
