Who said you ned to go to church every sunday?

Notruth:


Ask him who created the car he was riding in? Simple! Someone! Only that we can't see him!

Gpdwise:
I have been trying for the past three (3) hours now to explain the concept of God to my six year old half brother. who recently just returned from the states. i tried reading using the bible and he asked me the most difficult but simple question. Big brother where did God come from if you said there was nothing in world!! I dropped the bible immediately
I tried using nature to explain that the beautiful flowers, birds and sea where created by God. Then he asked me who created God because mama bird and papa bird will have junior bird and for the flowers I need to plant its seed for them to grow.. so big brother who is papa God

Gpdwise:
I Dont believe all I need to do is to take him to church every Sunday.. that will make him familiar with God in Nigeria and when he goes back to the state next two weeks would he still ve that conviction.. I want day to day example so that tomorrow he will ve the perfect faith of what he believes in

Gpdwise:

can u give me more.. the fact that he can't see the person that created the car but he is seeing the car as an evidence that some one built it. that is how God created us. As long as he can breath and see me it is an evidence that God is real

Gpdwise:
@coolebux I just need practical example to give him.. I need something he can relate to that God exists

You are just an atheist masquerading!

frank317:
Look at how explaining God, the creator of heaven and earth, the all powerful and all knowing being, to a six year old is difficult... Yet Religious folks and reason and ask themselves question.

If God cannot reveal himself to an inquisitive 6years old, how useless can he be?

Tell them to hold their breathe for a minute if they can survive it and then they will know there's God. To me I believe our job is to preach the word while it is the job of the Holy Spirit to convince and convict the heart of men to believe and get saved.

am not here to start an argument what I want is just a simple way to explain God to a kid.. not about how atheists thinks I know how fulfilled I am being a Christain and I want my younger brother to enjoy the same feeling.

Notruth I go to church on sunday as the first day of the week as millons of Nigerian do...

coolebux:

My brother, I can see how concerned and committed you are in this your brother's issue.
Folks might try to equip you with ideas they believe could work out, yet it clearly doesn't end there because you are not trained to do this.
It prize-worthy for you to have detected this deficiency in a good time

Just like you and I, that concept "God" was clearly explained to us in the children department of our churches unlike what they do where he lived. Thus, my previous post

malvisguy212:
God is a spirit (luke 4:24) a spirit is not a material effect, you cannot create a spirit, God is the uncause cause.

kolawaxxy:


Uncaused cause? I'ld prefer you say it's the known unknown

malvisguy212:
To you, That what you think. But to me, He is VERY much real.

malvisguy212:
You come to the wrong forum to seek for answer, this forum is control by deceptive spirit and lying tongue, they will only mock and laugh at you.

sobastical:
The earlier the better you should start praying for him, it is better now that you're aware of this at the early stage. The best thing to do is to pray for him fervently and show him some picture bible story book and pray before you do that as well.

God will open his eyes to the truth. Shalom

dedons:
Hmmmmm...

Your six - year old brother just returned from the states indeed.

I guess it's BUBU's katsina state.

keep on deceiving your self and other gullible nairalanders.



Anyway, if you must explain the existence of God to anyone, then you must first explain to yourself why you personally believe in his Existence.





SHIKENA!

Watch in this thread: the rare moment where adults discuss how best to indoctrinate an impressionable young child.

HardMirror:

Hehehehe
Smh
What a pity. Someone even suggested flogging the boy. This shows how many were indoctrinated. To believe in God is not a choice, it is a MUST in many homes.

coolebux:
Oya carry that pikin go una Church children department shapaly,

mek them use things like

The book of my Bible stories

Children's Bible

Christian songs

And Koboko (if need be)

Show am say Baba no be fake

But if to say the pikin been dey naija since, e for don know Baba God tey tey.

Gpdwise:

I believe there is a way to explain God to him and I just realise that we Christains including me have taken God for granted by just relying on the bible alone as prof that God exist which to me is not right. My people perish for lack of knowledge and its true. I ve become an atheist and a demon overnight because I asked a ? but one thing I must achieve on this platform is to get what I want and that will be to explain God to my Brother

shadeyinka:
OP
The boy has been successfully indoctrinated against the knowledge of God since infancy and you want to change that in 3 hours.

Let me help you.
Bring out a computer or a phone. Explain to him the concept of the visible hardware and the invisible software.

Use that to explain the fact that the WHOLE universe is made up of two parts: the visible and the invisible.

The invisible part of the universe does not obey the common rules or laws of the physical (including time, space, cause and effect)

This introduces the concept of God as an invisible spirit who may not need a father or mother(the rules are different)

Then show him a beautiful picture or an engine and ask if these can spontaneously exist without a designer or maker.

Finally pray for him.
I don't know if you are born again: if you are lay your hand on his head and command that every enemy of God seeking for the boys life be arrested, chained and evicted in Jesus Name.

See what happens

My second problem is you. Do you understand what you have believed about God? Are you Christian by Birth or by Relationship? I guess it may be appropriate to look inwards and redefine your relationship with God.
