Job went to god every day, and every day god abused him because he was in a pissing match with the child he abandoned. as a result, Job’s 10 children died, he lost his money and other capital, his wife left him; he suffered. https://twitter.com/_extts/status/1385203084192845824
what this says to me is not only do the prayers of the righteous perhaps not availeth much (which is in conflict with James), but also that god will use your body and your life as a prop to prove a point. you can “go to him,” as the video states, and still suffer.
but the message in the video is also in conflict with Paul who says that one of the fruits of the spirit is long suffering, which suggests that one is prone to suffering whether they “go to god” or not.
so either the person in the video agrees that the christian god is not real or they believe Paul is wrong.

considering that they made the video to prove that their god is real, they must then agree that Paul is wrong. and since the Church follows Paul and not Christ, well...🙂
as for me, i don’t agree w/Paul about much, but i do agree that life, for Black people, requires long suffering to some degree. and as that is the case, whether god is real or not, and whether he (that’s intentional) is prayed to or not, we suffer. Job showed us; so did Lucifer.
