KingEbukaNaija: I don't need to go to all christian house hold. Do you believe in Jesus? Yes you do. Why are you not doing greater things than Jesus even though he promised you that? Because it is a lie and the promise is mythical. Case closed. If it is true you will be doing it, but since it is a lie you can't despite all your belief. 2 Likes |

hopefulLandlord: Nobody is born a Christian! CHRISTIAN MEANS CHRISTLIKE so no I was not born a christian. I grew up interacting with various sects and religions like islam, eckancker, and I also read up on others and my moral compass chose one out of all of them and I have had no regrets or reason to change my mind ever since. My school sons were eckancker so I was always with their parents a lot and know more goings on than most. So yes I have browsed other religions. 3 Likes 3 Shares |

dalaman: Wow ! How exactly is this a reasonable conclusion You surmised that Christ is mythical simply because you believe I am not doing greater things than Him . Plus did you also ask close to 3 billion Christians that question before you arrived at that reason-deficient conclusion ? Dalaman , why ? Why ? Why ? 2 Likes 2 Shares |

KingEbukaNaija: If you were doing it you will be all over the news. You would probably be walking on water somewhere , calming down some storm somewhere or healing and amputee somewhere and restoring his/her amputated limbs instead of shooting blanks on the Internet with some atheist. People would have been writing about your great exploits as well since that was what was promised you. Instead you can't even convince your next door neighbor. 1 Like |

KingEbukaNaija: I don't need to ask anybody. I just need to ask you because you are a christian that truly believes in Jesus but you are unable to do greater things than him as he promised you because it is a lie. If we are to go by all christians then please name one christian that has done anything greater than Jesus did. 1 Like |

naijadeyhia: I am not. It doesn't matter if you believe me or not. I can not be afraid of an imaginary idea. Hell is just a human idea of the after life like reincarnation. It's just like saying that I am afraid of reincarnation. I can't be afraid of it because it is a human construction and imagination about the afterlife which they constructed. 1 Like 1 Share |

naijadeyhia: Your inability to give a cogent answer says it all A Christian that sins is still a Christian, he doesn't suddenly become a Muslim or pagan or atiest because of it since no man is perfect in the strictest sense of the word, you would've lied even while being a Christian Popping up with these stories and even painting your own parents so badly to prove a nonexistent point is embarrassing So, for your own sake, I'll drop this |

dalaman: See dalaman , every country has her punishments which its feels its condign for certain laws broken . In Indonesia , you are to face a firing squad for drug trafficking . In Spain , a two-year prison sentence for first offenders can be ruled out . In other countries this same offences have different punishments they think its appropriate for the offence . God's punishment for the wicked is eternal torture in Hell because as an all wise God he knows its the appropriate punishment - comeuppance . And the verdict from one's judgement on Judgement's Day will determine where He will spend eternity .Whatever you think of it is insignificant and nobody's concern . You do not question an ultimate authority , do not be contumacious ; piety , subservience and deference are required of you , you mortal ! 1 Like 1 Share |

dalaman: So in other words the entire reason why you grew up in harsh conditions, fell sick repeatedly, got married and spent stressful hours trying ro fend for your family and ensure your kids get a good education and then hit 80 or 90 and die is just so you would be plant food and it all ends there? If your answer is yes then why were you even born? Why did your parents even bother? Why did your parents parents parenrs to the first generation even bother giving birth? They should have aborted or killed or eaten every child born? 1 Like 1 Share |
