Whatever you ask in prayer, if you have faith, you will receive it. Matt. 21:22 Mark 11:24
What a lot of holy crap! As a faithful Catholic during high school, I used to pray to the Lord to grant us sane congressmen and sane senators to keep our government honest, efficient, and sane - my prayers were always ignored by the Lord Jesus - the Savior of the Philippines! Poch Suzara

Poch, God is not a cosmic bellhop who waits on you. This promise is for his children, not for everybody. There is the promise of answered prayers, but there is also the prerequisite of answered prayers.
If you're not his child, he is not obligated to grant your requests. It's like a child asking money from me after observing that I gave money to my child. I ask him, "Where's your dad? Why don't you ask money from him?" Besides Bertrand Russell, I suggest you also read on George Muller.
Ken, Any God that only has the capacity to deal with children and not with grown-up men and women is a God that is not only reckless, but is also worthless. Poch Suzara
Childlike faith in the Heavenly Father is not only good for you, Poch. It's the only way to know him and experience him. He's not talking about childishness. Real men trust in Jesus. Real men pray to God. They declare their dependence on him. Others want their autonomy. They won't bow the knee to Jesus to their own peril. They love their sins too much. Yet they are enslaved by selfish and lustful desires. Jesus said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.” You might even need diapers. Trust him now while you have a young and robust mind. It might be too late when the synapses are no longer firing.
Ken, I asked it before, I ask it again: Oh Jesus, my dear Jesus, what the fuck are you a GOD for? Poch Suzara
And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son. But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”
Poch, I did not attend a Roman Catholic university. I am not a former catholic like many of you. I am not sick and what I believe comports with reality. I was just responding to your raging rant against my Jesus. Someday, every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Your outrage does not shock me a bit. What else can you expect from the godless but irrational rants? Despite all I have said about how I read your view, I still wish you all the best.
Ken, I am so sad for you. You seem to find it hard to take a stand on your beliefs and on your doubts with dignity and self-respect. The most precious treasure you can own in this life is having a mind of your own. Forget Jesus, you can save yourself better as you are the best savior of your own life! Cheers! Poch Suzara
Poch, I humbly declare my dependence on the living, loving, Lord Jesus Christ. He is sovereign, and by his providential kindness, he saved me from the power of sin, hell, and the devil. I know him. He walks with me and talks with me. I may be soft as a tissue paper, but I'm taped to a brick wall. You cannot save yourself, Poch. You cannot even prevent yourself from sinning in thought, word, and in deed, and in not doing good for one day. You can't even stop cussing, cursing, and blaspheming. Jesus says, the wickedness of your heart comes out of your foul mouth. One of the immediate changes noticeable in a man transformed by the grace oh God is the absence of profanity and obscenity in their language. And they are changed without even trying. It is so freeing.
Imagine an infatuation addictiveness to a serial-killer Vampire roaming around the city of Manila- what would you do?
Vampires in Manila. What a novel idea.
Ken,
Don't worry...corrective ways doesn't mean we replace your SUPERSTAR serial-killer VAMPIRE with superstar Werewolf. We don't that by having the ability of NON_BELIEVING.
