It's like the moment you decide to emancipate yourself from the slavery of religion, you have more intuition to ask questions, research, read,....... I mean, you just feel limitless.
I wasted 18years of my life bounded by the shackles of religion.
I don't argue religion with anyone, hold your beliefs and let me hold mine.
If my mom knows how deep I'm into this, she'll just nag herself to a heart attack, we are still having issues with going to church. I just honour her by going to church on Sundays arming myself with a novel or book (in the guise of the bible). Or better still lie about going to a friend's church, and spend my day at the cinema.
Its just sad, I can't just be my actual self, without people thinking you are possessed.
NB: no Christian fanatic, should bother quoting me, especially using the Bible. I don't recognise it as a fact.
Shout out to all agnostics / atheists on the house, see y'all in hell or wherever they think we are going to be damned to, eternally. Me thinks we are going to have fun.
PS: No preaching to me please. I'm irredeemable.

i agree lets stop feeding lows who want to remain low.... and all we do is just enter threads to dissuade fellow believers from giving them food

onyenze123:

how about deists?

HardMirror:

When you get banned now, you start crying that seun is partial. Just read what you wrote up there.

LaClicKLaBenDin:


Make this into a thread

otemanuduno:
better...hell fire is not for atheists because they don't believe in it and support it. Hell fire is like an hallucination made to look very real by the sulphur and phosphorus part of the brain. When those who believes that they might get to hell fire dies, this belief will toil with their brains and set them on fire until they are able to shake themselves off it and get out of it. Then their souls will go to the right place after death.

Luckymay:

So as an 'atheist' you believe there's a soul?

vislabraye:
I've been following the thread but the Op didn't conclude his story. HardMirror, at what point did you become an atheist ?
Secondly, if you've been speaking in tongues, under what inspiration did the tongues come ? You told us that your tongues are genuine.

Oppypoppy:
I feel sorry for you. At the time of death you will realize the great mistake you have done. But no chance to repent but judgement. Your choice anyway. Making Heaven is a personal choice.

Nothing you type on Nairaland will alter anybody's religious beliefs even in the slightest.

Just saying...

nelsonoba:


Can I tell you something Mr NEW ATHEIST? We are not in a competition with atheists.......nobody is begging you to do God a favour by believing in Him. If you believe in God and the death and resurrection of Christ for your sins, you are merely doing yourself a favour of saving your soul. You will certainly discover if you or me is the FOOL here by the time you die and get into eternity to face judgement. Let's leave the answer to that till we both close our eyes here on earth and open them in eternity! No need to argue with you.

ollah1:


Must you force your Jesus to everybody?

KLand:


No, I mustn't! I was trying to do that either. But it is a decision I highly recommend. The choice is yours to make.

ollah1:


You shouldn't highly recommend nonsense.

KLand:


I wish you knew better! No offence pls

HardMirror:

They are still real to me. I don't disbelief in any of them, I believe in the power of prayers, I believe in healings and I believe in speaking in tongues.

ollah1:


I highly recommend you switch to shintoism

KLand:


You got me laughing. I follow Jesus, The Way. Join me if you wish.

ollah1:


I got you laughing. Lol. The same way your previous comments got so many people laughing

KLand:


Let me ask you this: Why does it look like the name Jesus offends you so much? Correct me if I'm wrong.

ollah1:


You shouldn't highly recommend nonsense.

Ken4Christ:
What a thread! Hard Mirror and all who share his views, I have this to say.

1. You don't figure out spiritual things with your mind. You will be thrown into confusion. That is what happened to Hard Mirror. Spiritual things are spiritually discerned.

2. Your submission that people who have not heard the gospel will not go to hell is not true. The Bible never said so. All unrighteousness will be judged.

The Bible says

Romans 1:18-19.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE.

So, those who have not heard the gospel are not necessarily exempted from punishment. God has placed within every man a conscience that enables you to know what is good and what is evil.

Besides, there are some judgment you cannot predict the outcome until the judgment day.

Generally speaking, those who haven't heard the gospel stands more risk of going to hell. If any amongst them will be saved, they will be very few.

Noah for instance was never in covenant with God but God counted him righteous in his generation.

Job was not a Jew but he was seen as a righteous man.

But cases like this are not common.

The only way to save people from going to hell is through the preaching of the gospel.

3. Your submission that God is unwilling to help and save the situation reveals your spiritual ignorance. What more help do you need from God? He already sent his Son to die for the sins of the world. You are the one to carry the message to the dying world. God will hold Christian responsible for many souls that ends up in hell if we refuse to preach. So, don't blame God. He has done all he can do. The rest is your responsibility.

4. If you are now an atheist, why do you still use the gift of the Holy Spirit (speaking in tongues) to strengthen yourself occasionally? Then you still believe in God. You are only confused because you didn't receive answers to your many questions.

5. You said those miracles you performed can be replicated by anyone that understand how it works? How many of such miracles have you performed as an atheist.

God didn't answer you because they were very foolish questions. You were a terror to the Kingdom of darkness but he has lured you away from the truth since you were not very grounded in the word.

I may not have done one tenth of the exploits you did but I can confidently tell you that you have erred from the faith.

That is why the Bible warned

1 Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth TAKE HEED lest he fall

Hebrews 3:12 TAKE HEED, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

God does exist and he is a loving God. He is also a God of judgment. We humans are even fortunate that we have redemption. Angels don't have redemption. God is not wicked. We are the one that are wicked. We ignore him and choose our own ways.

His mercies are so great that he can save the worst sinners.

Please, repent and give your life to Christ everyone reading this post. There is no opportunity after death.

HardMirror:
Hello,

I am sorry I won't be able to reveal my real name. But every other detail I give are absolutely genuine.

If you were a FUTARIAN from 2007 to 2012 it's possible you know this radical dude typing this. Yes. I was a popular christian on campus because of my activities then.

I had formal Pastoral training from my home church with a certificate. (Don't want to name the church). That was before I got admission into
FUTA. We planted 2 new churches before I gained admission and was able to get the churches members before handing over to more experienced pastors.

Believe it or not, I have over 300 converts that I know of and had a book I wrote the names of my converts so has to pray for them everyday by name.

I am very sure the real number will be in the thousands, because this 300+ converts are the only ones I have their names written.

I stayed in Akindeko Hostel in my first year in Futa. I was one of those who did what we called "morning cry" everyday in the hostel. Usually from 6am in the morning. Preaching that people should repent for the kingdom of God was at hand.
I remember how I usually had clashes with the muslims at the mosque beside Akindeko Hostel.

NOTE: this is a true life story and all I say is nothing but the absolute truth. More of this story is to come.
