To us, it may seem God's blessings are selective, but this if it is, would defeat the natural law of kharma, the law of cause and effect, that which rewards measure for measure. God never breaks his laws. what a man sows, he shall reap accordingly. some individuals are either favoured by God as a result of their positive past life, having been reincarnated and rewarded with a blessed new lease of life. Some people come into this world only to fulfil or be used to accomplich a purpose,(pro.16vrs 4).Many xtians dont believe in reincarnation. One day the disciplines of Jesus asked to know who john the baptist was. Jesus replied that if they would believe, john was the Elijah who was to come, Jesus knew they wont understand so he started by saying 'if you would believe'. xtians who measure wordly prosperity as a blessing of God would never be satisfied with themselves. Only a state of a content mind can worship God in spirit and not be engulfed by distraction of worldly illusions.

WHY SHOULD GOD ALLOW AND SUPPORT CRUSADE AND JIHAD,
THOSE OF YOU, THE "ELECT" OF GOD ARE LIARS AND THIEVES.

lets not fight for God lets be human enough to allow God to be God. it is only God who knows the past and the future so lets be careful when we invite him to decide for us, his ways are mysterious just keep the faith no matter what and be grateful for all that is happening . the greatest reverence to God is when we act because of him or stop certain action because of him then we shall see and understand his ways, fellow countrymen God is not mocked for whatsoever you sow you shall reap, until you can see God in the next person you are still blind and cannot love or receive the love of God, for indeed all men are created in the image and likeness of God not because of the two hands and legs but because all men were mere clay until the breath of God brought life into them and they are considered dead when the breath leaves the physical body, please lets just love one another and we shall understand God.......

All the way from America just to teach us superstition and the paradoxes of choices and blessing.
Where was God when the whole America is sick with amok - runners, blacks young men with guns, killing themselves as if they have no knowledge of humanity.

Teach all about God, but just not why the simple people can avoid hunger and starvation. Diseases and Death become the salvation!

We are badly in need of a mindset change that drives the kind of curiosity (leading to scientific discovery) that has led to the nation building that we all enjoy in the west. Have you not seen the poverty in Ghana? Unfortunately, your article discourages people from being critical of things that don't make sense to them. If it is truly your intention to help Ghanaians, please open their minds. There are thought processes that are not religion or faith-based that have provided outcomes that we all desire - good roads, schools, hospitals, theme parks, housing, sports, airplanes, ships, flat-screen TVs, iPads, iPhones, GPS, headphones, heart surgery. Please promote those instead. Your article or anyone like it in the past has not chance of providing the outcomes I mention above. If you are just another pastor ready to exploit people, then I can only ask that you be sensitive.

Think Ghanaians boast of hordes of Philosophers - Scientist - Academicians & Seasoned Politicians & Economist as well as Theologist & Prophets & what have u.Can any one out there define TRUTH !!!.This medium of free expression is not chat-show or comedy yet the commentary appears to be educative & informative despite few bias abuse left & right.The elites can not show any achievement or success Governance past supposedly think has gotten for the Nation.We fear to tell the Truth -- back-biting - witch-hunting - pull him down syndrome & bragging of 1st class personality main cause of our woes & do not want to learn & the current Election Crisis a Test Case of the Judgement Day of the Colours of Justice System or Judiciary Power in the Land & all the World watching to see Ghana Democracy & Political system comes of Age.What has individual Citizen achieve than Embarking & Disembarking Flights to the glee amassing properties & personal aggrandizement as against the majority who can hardly have the basics -- food - housing - clothing let alone contributing to the betterment of the society to share.The Ten Commandments & Human Laws of the Classroom don't wash. Tell me the Attitudes of the Politicians -- nothing to show than same Korle Gonno Lagoon as if Ghana is only Accra . What about those in the Hinterlands.Leaders gotta be strong & courageous to build Ghana like the WEST done for the Migrants scrubbing the pavements & old fags down the people homes & gladly remitting family back home & springing up & sprawling housing estates to the delight of all.We need to promote development & create attitudes that eliminates mismanagement for Knowledge of the Elite is useless unless it's match with practical performance. The West still support Africa including Ghana & i pause to ask what has all these Boakye Gyan / P.V.Obeng / Tsatsu Tsikata / Ahwoi's done to improve Society -- just because the Rule of Law ain't working as a result of FAFF GOVERNANCE.Pastors we know use the Bible to cheat yet the Government acquiesce to the silly & rotten behaviour of bribery & corruption of the tro-tro drivers & MTU to Road Contractors & those at the heart of armed robbery.The way forward is to make Agriculture lucrative & check un-employed in the cities chasing no jobs to go back to the land. The Army takes over building roads & constructing bridges & the Police take war on Armed Robbers especially those intimidating rural areas. All MP's have to stay in their Constituencies & no new Law in Parliament necessary.Living in slums & in darkness will make them re-think of their responsibilities & commitments rather than amassing wealth -- how MP's owe 2x cars - Party Officials Big Houses beggars belief. Yet most people cannot afford school fees & Government not providing Classrooms -- Women under age pregnancy reduced & secure safe environment & see to the Black stars eventual conquering the world to win Sponsorship from the West to help build technologically - scientifically & the State Security & Intelligence working harmoniously for better Ghana

Very well said, It's a pity most 'learned' Ghanaians cannot think and if you prove the truth to them, they simply find another excuse to go back to their brainwashed minds. How can there be only four people after creation and when one commits murder, he rans away to another city, was it a city of dogs? Eve, according to the bible gave birth to males (a common thing is the bible that only males are born) and yet Ghana man fails to see that 3 males were fighting over one woman?

It's a shame you cannot think. Which god are you talking of? The god of the Jews, let it be their god and stick to your African God, after all the African God is more sensible. With whatever education you have, do you mean to say that all that is written is right, or is it because that book have been tagged as holy? Holy to whom, you too create your holy book, period. With people like you who have been scared of an non-existent hell, we will continue to wallow in our ignorance and poverty in the aboundance of plenty. In the aboundance of water, the fool is thirsty.
