All write-up should be dropped on the comment section, dispute stories shouldn't be less than 250words.

Entry by parishioners should be made once.

Again how do I get to stand in chance to win?

Just drop a dispute Story with title as said earlier and try making it funny. Entry that got the highest attraction and upvote stands in chance to win 5SBD, so simple as ABC because I'm very sure that majority of us are Bible scholars.

Note: Entry Will last up to seven days after which winner will be announced.

But first, let me say my own dispute Story to set as an example.

THE DEVIL INGREDIENT CALLED SIN

On this special day, God came down to earth, seeing how ugly it was and decided to make it beautiful by putting things in place and at same time, he created man in his likeness. So beautiful on God said.

Genesis 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.

This was so until one very faithful day when Mr devil came to man and told man how sweet his ingredient was, "wow" man said and man got a taste of it and was over feed.

This made God very angry and as the rate of this ingredient named sin increases, God got to the point that he thought of destroying all he had created.

Genesis 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

And all that Mr devil could do was to laugh and be happy thinking he had found the Fight. During his celebration on his assumed victory, a man named Noah found grace in God's sight.

Genesis 6:8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

This made God to reconsider destroying the whole man and that was the end of Mr devil cerebration and a beginning to man's redemption.

I assumed yours will be more interesting and fascinating than mine and don't forget that the major aim is to make it funny rather than focusing more on the prize.

Let's see what you got...ENJOY!!!

Abraham and Lot Separate

genesis 13 v 8 - 9
then Abram said to lot "let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen;
for we are kinsmen. 9. Is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me. If you take the left hand, then i will go to the right; or if you take the right hand then i will go to the left"

The story is simple, this was a wise instance of conflict resolution, Abram as he was called then is the uncle to Lot his nephew.
Abram never stopped lot from acquiring wealth even while he stayed with him. He allowed lot gain enough cattle and expanded his now empire.
But something came up, may be because Lot has gained so many wealth that he has forgotten that that Abram is supposed to be his master, becasuse even at the start of Abrams journey to the unknown land that God will show him, God never told abram to take his nephew Lot.
But Abram did not see that as a betrayer from lot, even when lots herdsmen was always fighting over grazing field.
The complains has been coming to Abram so he decided to resolve it in a peaceful manner.
He called his nephew lot and gave him a choice.
Who does that this day?
He told Lot, please i dont want us to fight nor our herdsmen kill themselves over this, you are my nephew, therefore i urge you to take the right wing then i will take the left wing or you take the left wing then i will take the right wing.
As the story continues,thats from verse 10 - 16
Lot chosed to go the plain of sodom and gomorrha.
Because he saw that it was very rich and that his sheeps will have more to eat. Forgeting the fact that his own sheep has almost finished the plain of cannan while he stayed with Abram.
But Abram was not mad at Lot choice, rather he accepted it in good faith.
And God bless Abram from that day onward,
By changing his name from Abram to Abraham.And made him even more richer.

Nice story catch bro....

[brightfame]

This is so interesting that i am carried away by it. The bible is the script that reveals our future. The story of Abraham is one that should inspire us all and make us understand the concept of the big picture. Today the Jewish nations is enjoying this blessing because he understands covenant and sees the big picture.

Thanks for sharing.

ANGER BROKE HIS STONES

Remember that Moses had been called to Mt. Sinai to receive the Ten Commandments which God wrote with His hands on two tablets of stone. While still with God on mount , God informed Moses that the children of Isreal had gone astray and were already worshipping a golden image. Moses came down from the mount and in a fit of anger, threw down the tablets of stone and broke them.

And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing; and Moses' Anger waxed hot, and he cast the tablets out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
There is another occasion where ....He exhibited the same trait
In Numbers 20:7-12
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Take your rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water for them out of the rock, and give them drink to the congregation and their animals.
So Moses took the rod from before the Lord as he commanded him.
And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock; and he said to them, "Hear now, you rebels! Must we bring water for you out of this rock?"
Then Moses lifted his hand struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank.
Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the children of Isreal, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them"

Anger made him to lose such a promise land, a land flowing with milk and honey

source
Wow! Anger broke the two tablets! He cast the stones out of his hands! The precious stone given to him by God himself. He became angry with the children of Isreal, himself and maybe thinking that God has offended him but Were they not given to Him by God? Why break the stones? What will Anger not cause?
Remember that it was this same Anger that made this same Moses not to make the promised land.
Don't break your tablet of stone (your convenant with God, your testimony, your glorious future, your dream, your roadmap), etc because of someone else.i

[brightfame]

The negative virtue that steals away vital things that will transform our lives ranging from relationship, marriage, business deals, and what have you is Anger.

The bible even declares one a fool for been so.. Steer clear from anger because it can mare one and leaves one with regret forever.

Thanks for sharing.

[joagawu]

Thanks @brightfame for stopping by

That makes him the first law broker. Really we need to control our emotions. A lot will be spoilt if we act when anger, but if we are calm, we will have no need for regret

[omoyiwolabusayo]

Anger can cause many problems but the only thing we can do is to avoid it and probably it comes,we should ask for the grace of God to overcome it. Nice comment @joagawu

We must learn to break the chain of anger and embrace the cardinal virtue of meekness.

[joagawu]

Thanks so much for your comment....i appreciate

Only if Moses could avoid anger, am sure it wouldn't have led to this..

THERE SHOULD BE NO GAP

source

Matthew 26:58,

But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace,and went in,and sat with the servants,to see the end.

Gap here is talking about backsliding away from God,deviating from path of God,disobedient and so on. An example is the case of Adam and Eve,they create a big gap between them and God when they disobeyed God by eating the forbidden fruit God told them not to eat. And they were banished from the garden of Eden and lived to face the repercussion thereafter.

And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.
And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat. (Genesis 3:8-12)

Here,we can see how the serpent deceived them and made them create a gap that was flourishing between them and God to collapse. Therefore those things that can create gap between man and God are;

• Temptation
• Covetousness
• Backsliding
• Wickedness
• Rebellion
• Faithlessness etc
  All these we should avoid so that our gap with Him will be secured and be full of enjoyment. Always have a close fellowship with God so that you will always know about Him the more. Thanks

[burlarj]

Good lessons taught here, we need to avoid all the things that we make us farther from Him

[omoyiwolabusayo]

Thanks

[steemcourt]

[simplicitytech]

Therefore those things that can create gap between man and God are;
Temptation
Covetousness
Backsliding
Wickedness
Rebellion
Faithlessness etc

Thats nice but to sum it up

• ourselves
• satan
• the world

This three points covers everything that can make up distance from God

[brightfame]

The story of the prodigal son shows how loving the father can be despite all of our misbehaviours. Each time i go through this portion of the bible it tells me my heavenly father has an undying love for me.

Thanks for sharing

[degreatmyke]

What a great way of stimulating parishioners' narrative creativity, and their desire for fun! I love to catch some fun, too.
Yippee!
