“In what areas of life have you refused guidance and intervention? You claim to see when probably you don’t. Have you refused guidance in your relationship and marriage? Have you rejected guidance in your academic matters? Do you dismiss everyone in your financial matters because you know it all? You claim to see when you don’t ? The danger is you won’t be helped, you won’t get better and you will be guilty of your failure.”
“When your enemies suffer, it’s not always because they hurt you. When those who hurt you suffer, do not be excited that they are paying for it, it’s not always the case. When those whose success you envy, fail and seem to have lost everything, do not pontificate that they are paying for something. Sometimes people go through difficulties and it’s not related to anyone sinning personal sins.”
“Whatever you do or say, be intentional that you do not mislead anyone … Quit social media if it causes you to be misled. Live without internet and TV if it causes you to be misled. Whatever causes you to be misled is not worth compared to the loss of eternal life and a relationship with God.”
“There are so many tiny details that vary yet it’s the same story. The differences do not affect the fact that the Bible is God’s word. God did not dictate the Bible. God’s people experienced God and then in their own way and language and even limited memory they wrote God’s word. The message from God is not distorted even when details do not agree. If a friend sends you a gift, and those who received the gift do not agree on the color of dressing of the messenger, that detail is inconsequential to the key message of the gift. Many conflicting details in the Bible where same story is narrated, are inconsequential to the key message intended for us. In fact the differences confirm that these writers acted independently from each other in delivering God’s word to us, and we remain in awe at how consistently true the key message is!”
“Do you have earlier conclusions that have made difficult for you to relate with others? Your relationships at work, in the family…Do you have conclusions you made earlier that prevent you from learning Bible truths? Do you have an earlier made conclusion about the Sabbath…”
“Delayed punishment may make sinners comfortable and happy in sin. Delay of punishment may make sinners to actually think they are not sinful. Do not be misled by delayed punishment. Do not rejoice, the days of punishment are coming!”
“Not everyone expressing love really loves you. Some love you in order to explore you sexually …Some love affairs will take money from you through regular small requests…Health matters are complex and personal, why do you quickly believe…You believe your money will double in two months?”
“If a religious leader leads you into any sin, both of you are guilty. Sexual sin. Visiting witches. Scheming to steal money. Scheming to take leadership positions and deny others opportunities. Spreading lies about other innocent religious leaders. You the misled and the religious leader who misleads you will be punished.”
“We get deceived by tricky questions in exams because we didn’t inquire from God. We get misled by peer pressure because we don’t ask God for directions. Advice from relatives and friends deceive us to end relationships we could fix, because we don’t inquire from God. We are conned into wrong relationships and marriages because we don’t ask God before falling in love.”
