Macelliot:

U are a muslim! I had debated with u before.

theunusualmoon:

..................................
I don't know you but I respect you because even in this irresoluteness of yours You stil preach christianity unconsciously.The truth is you are not the first to first feel this way and you won't be the last.
Let me just remind you that your post was all about love and also,understanding that helping the next man or woman is a world changing gesture and this I believe........Is the exact message Jesus tried to pass across.
So please don't get confused .You're simply trying to continue from where he stopped which, ofcourse you know, is quite a daunting task.

firstolalekan:

lilbazy:
Jesus is lord

@Miz..,
My advice is this; Life is too large, take things easy. One step at a time. I appreciate your honesty and simplicity, I appreciate your person. God will help you.

Oduduwaboy:
You take me several years back, to the day i first read E.G White.....cant remember the title of the book now. It was such beautiful writing. Anyway, this is the summary of what some of us have been saying. We need to have an wholistic view of our existence & our universe; the narrow religious view of personal salvation is selfish, untrue and absolute rubbish.

Please is there a way to double like your post without opening my alternate accounts.

The truth is 'religion ' actually does more harm than good and I know Jesus never came to give us religion instead he came to give us a sword which is the word of God.

MizMyColi:


But you, and I, and everyone reading this now and 10 years from now, God keeping NL, can change ourselves, innit?

The things we call impossible will remain impossible to us.

Who in their wildest dreams would have thought Oshodi would be what it is today, who?

Only those who saw it.

They had a vision. It ultimately became their MISSION, a purpose.

What is a VISION

Vision is what you have become as a result of what you are focusing on.

Vision is what you are now by reason of what you are seeing.

To achieve a vision, there are five levels.

You need to SEE
You need to BELIEVE
You need to BECOME
You need to PRACTICE
Finally
You need to MANIFEST.

MizMyColi:

At least, not in the manner we have been programmed to believe.

Everyone, please read with an open mind.


We keep hearing people say, Jesus will come one day to redeem the world, put an end to suffering, e.t.c.

But look at us, look at ISIS, look everywhere, since time immemorial......there's been suffering.

For one church that opens business today, there are several other kinds of new atrocities being committed, against human life.

The very people we are made to believe Jesus died for, that they might have life.

I created this topic because, I wanted everyone to see the wisdom behind the post I made penultimate this one, and take a cursory look inwards.

What are we doing right, what are we doing wrong?

Is there even a remote possibility that the world as we know it is our responsibility to nurture and preserve?

Have we taken time to consider being THE CHANGE that this world is so desperately in need of?

What if Jesus has already given us the key to make our earth a haven of sorts, what if we've been empowered beyond measure to see change birthed in our world, but chose to pay blind eyes/deaf ears.

What if we are the ones required to clean up this mess we created.

When are we going to realize that every good or bad deed we do has an effect on the universe as a whole?

What if we're the cause of our suffering, and now that we've done more than enough, we expect a quick fix God out there to work a turn water into wine miracle of sorts

What if the world had no religion in it?

What if Jesus came to illuminate a path for us all to travel on and find everlasting peace and happiness

What if religion is the main obstacle to finding that path?

What if, what if, what if.

These are my incoherent submissions and I'd like us to take a cursory look at these things.

What has religion done than build long bridges among/against people.

Even when I claim to have no religion and yet want to interact with people of different beliefs and unbeliefs, some people still shut me out, making me feel I shouldn't be among them, like I'm an alien of sorts.


Why?

Because of my ideals, because I've chosen to find a common ground to relate with everyman. To see every person through the eyes of love.

As far as I'm concerned, our lives are better off without religion of any kind.


Without religion, we'd likely speak one language and message of love for one another, and seek out ways to help make our world better, we'd be more mindful of our interconnectedness.

There'd be no atheist to call the religious man foolish and open-eyed blind.

There'd be no religious man to call the atheist and all other "ists" confused and lost.

The Genie God we're waiting for, the one who'll wave his magic wand and destroy the earth in fire and brimstone before building a new heaven and a new earth may never come (in the manner we've been told to expect).

The kingdom of heaven (if any) is already here with us. How well are we manifesting it?


The onus is on us.

MizMyColi:
@Theunusualmoon.

I have a religion, yes.

Just not the conventional kind.

Right now, I have chosen to detach from my professed religion.....

I want to test it and see if it holds water.


Meanwhile, what other religion might this be?
