lexiyandra:It has been historically proven by whom, and when ?  Do you mind sharing and updating that proof with us here ? Because, as far as many of us know, there has been ZERO proof that Jesus actually existed. 1 Like 1 Share |

dadaic: I appreciate your tone. Well to answer you: if I were God I'd speak to each person in his/her heart in a way that is unmistakable-not through prophets, books, pastors, Bishops, Seers etc. Speech, my brother is the first intimacy of the human heart and the basis for all true heart relationship. Before there was any book there speech. So if God chooses to limit himself to speaking in a book or to a select group who act as his broadcasters then he has shut himself off from the beings with whom he is portrayed as earnestly desiring to relate with. I cannot obey, serve, worship, relate with a God who speak to me through proxies. |

xnsandrxns:Religion? I'm not a religious person, i don't belong to any religion. I'm not a Christian. I understand your atheism view point. Whether you accept or not, God exists, He sent His son Jesus to come and show mankind how to please Him |

SHALOM! My name is Olatunde Aroloye, and I am a Born Again, Full-Gospel, Pentecostal Christian or 35 years' standing. I have been unaffiliated with Organized Christianity as of 1985, when progress within that system proved impossible. I have since learned exactly how Christianity has been compromised, and that there are other people who have been given Truth that Organized Christianity was set up to suppress. Namely: SCIENTOLOGY, by Lafayette Ronald Hubbard. Namely: NAGUALISM, by Carlos Castaneda. Namely, THE CELESTINE PROPHECY, by James Redfield. hahn: MY RELIGION says: . MATTHEW 7:12-29. 12. "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is The Law and The Prophets." 13. "Enter ye in at the Strait Gate: for Wide is the Gate, and Broad is the Way, that leadeth to Destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14. "Because Strait is the Gate, and Narrow is The Way, which leadeth unto Life, and few there be that find it. 15. "Beware of False Prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16. "Ye shall know them by their Fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17. "Even so every good tree bringeth forth Good Fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth Evil Fruit. 18. "A Good Tree cannot bring forth Evil Fruit, neither can a Corrupt Tree bring forth Good Fuit. 19. "Every Tree that bringeth not forth Good Fruit is hewn down, and cast into The Fire. 20. "Wherefore by their Fruits ye shall know them. 21. "Not every one that saith unto me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter into The Kingdom of Heaven; but he that doeth The Will of my Father Which is in Heaven. 22. "Many will say to me in That Day, 'LORD, LORD, HAVE WE NOT PROPHESIED IN THY NAME? AND IN THY NAME HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS? AND IN THY NAME DONE MANY WONDERFUL WORKS?' 23. "And then will I profess unto them, 'I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.' 24. "Therefore whosoever heareth these Sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a Wise Man, which built his House upon a Rock: 25. "And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that House; and it Fell not: for it was founded upon a Rock. 26. "And every one that heareth these Sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a Foolish Man, which built his house upon the Sand: 27. "And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that House; and it Fell: and Great was The Fall of it." 28. And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these Sayings, the People were astonished at his Doctrine: 29. For he Taught them as One having Authority, and not as the scribes. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO LIFE: PERIOD. This is not something that we GAMBLE on: we deal in Absolute Certainty. The ONLY Way to be ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN of anything is to go by RESULTS- not by THEORY. The FRUITS of A Religion determine whether it comes from God or not. Let us also put into consideration that there 7 versions of hell, ie 7 religions who also have hell (aside from yours), It is a very silly idea to think that The True Religion is determined by which AfterLife exists or not. There is no reason to believe that any claimed AfterLife does not Exist. The Spiritual Realm is a vast place. There is plenty of room for many Hells, many Paradises, and plenty of space in the SEVEN HEAVENS, where YAHWEH GOD Rules. . JOHN 14:1-18. "LET not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2. "In my Father's House are many Mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3. "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4. "And whither I go ye know, and The Way ye know." 5. Thomas saith unto him, "Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know The Way?" 6. Jesus saith unto him, "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life: no man cometh unto The Father, but by me. 7. "If ye had known me, ye should have Known my Father also: and from henceforth ye Know Him, and have seen Him." 8. Philip saith unto him, "Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us." 9. Jesus saith unto him, "Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen The Father; and how sayest thou then, 'SHEW US THE FATHER?' 10. "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The Words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth The Works. 11. "Believe me that I am in The Father, and The Father in me: or else believe me for the very Works' sake. 12. "Verily, verily, I say unto you, 'HE THAT BELIEVETH ON ME, THE WORKS THAT I DO SHALL HE DO ALSO;' and Greater (Works) than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13. "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my Name, that will I do, that The Father may be glorified in The Son. 14. "If ye shall ask any thing in my Name, I will do it. 15. "If ye love me, keep my Commandments. 16. "And I will pray The Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever; 17. "Even The Spirit of Truth; whom the World cannot receive, because It seeth him not, neither knoweth Him: but ye know him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. 18. "I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you." YAHSHUA SPECIFICALLY SAID THAT THERE ARE MANY DWELLING-PLACES IN HEAVEN- just that HE is the ONLY Way to THE FATHER. But there is hope! There is no way for you to have known The Truth about HELL. Even Religions and Spiritual Systems that can authentically see into the Spiritual Realm do not know The Truth about Hell, nor about Death. What awaits the majority of Mankind is worse than being tortured for Eternity in Fire. They are challenged to render an instant account of everything they have done with the Life Force issued them from Birth, and if they cannot provide it, they are classified as Animals, and immediately executed in the process of extracting this record by force. Only those who are able to TOTALLY RECALL their entire life from Birth IMMEDIATELY, are allowed to continue into the AfterLife. Those who fail are completely torn apart, and their last Spirit Energies devoured by the DEVILS. This is determined by DIRECT OBSERVATION of DEATH. [See: THE FIRE FROM WITHIN, by Carlos Castaneda.] In no particular order, here are common signs you can use in detecting if your religion is the true one and also help you identify the true religion if you happen to come across it. There is clearly no way that YOU can know anything about "TRUE RELIGIONS," otherwise you would not waste our time like this. Please note that the true religion will not have any of these traits. HOW DO YOU KNOW? 1) Your "holy" book has lots of contradictions: Let us assume for instance that you are about to purchase a maths textbook for your kid, or for yourself, and on the first page you see "1+1=11", wouldn't this be enough to make you feel skeptical? Now, let us further imagine that you turn to the next page and the next and the next and keep seeing contradictions, would you still buy the book and even, in obvious stupidity, go around telling people that 1+1=11? I have never heard of any Holy Book that has said that "ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS ELEVEN." If you know such a Book, why can't you tel us which one it is? Cowardice? . 1st JOHN 5:7. 7. For there are three that bear record in Heaven, The Father, The Word, and The Holy Ghost: and these Three are One. In the Christian Religion, the Trinitarians believe that God is Three Entities who are one. Is there anything wrong with that? Is that what you are calling a "CONTRADICTION?" MODERN SCIENCE has leaned recently that any part of a higher Organism can be used to create an exact duplicate, called a CLONE. These clones can be raised to look identical, so that one cannot see any difference between them in adult form. Yet all of them will have identical DNA- they are one being. IDENTICAL TWINS, TRIPLETS, QUADRUPLETS and FIVETUPLETS all came from the same one cell. They are one, down to the molecular level. Is there anything wrong with that statement? Anything illogical or contradictory there? Are you not in fact merely reviling things you know nothing about? If your "holy" book has these contradictions, it would be wise to throw it in the trash can. This is an obvious sign that your religion is false. THERE ARE FOUR CATEGORIES OF HUMANS, LIKENED TO ANIMALS: 4. SHEEP: Those who meditate on The Word of God by saying mouthfuls of It to themselves, hundreds into thousands of times per day, until they have completely assimilated and understood It, so that they can produce Full Results off of It. 3. GOATS: Those who meditate on The Word of God, even correctly, but do not find it within themselves to produce more than stunted, sparse results. 2. PIGS: Those who do not meditate and find answers within themselves, but have others explain The Word of God to them instead- but after they have been washed off by The Truth, they go back to bathe in the same Filthy Habits and Thinking they were just freed from. 1. DOGS: Those who do not find it within themselves to understand, accept, nor believe The Word of God, but vomit it out, until the world makes It more palatable to them- that is, someone else comes to explain It to them. If The Bible only contained Wisdom an Ignorant person like yourself could understand, what good could It be? . PROVERBS 1:1-7. THE Proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; 2. To Know Wisdom and Instruction; to perceive the Words of Understanding; 3. To receive the Instruction of Wisdom, Justice, and Judgment, and Equity; 4. To give subtilty to the Simple, to the Young Man Knowledge and Discretion. 5. A Wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a Man of Understanding shall attain unto Wise Counsels: 6. To understand a Proverb, and the Interpretation; the Words of The Wise, and their Dark Sayings. 7. The Fear of The LORD is The Beginning of Knowledge: but Fools despise Wisdom and Instruction. THE BIBLE TEACHES THE SIMPLEST CONCEPTS, THEN THE INTERMEDIATE CONCEPTS, THEN THE ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE. SINNERS cannot Understand the Advanced Knowledge of God. It is not your business to know those things; start with what concerns you: you are a SINNER, and you are like a man who built his house upon the Sand. . DANIEL 12:10. 10. "Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the Wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the Wise shall understand." In order find out if your "holy" book fits into this category, it would be advisable that you read it on your own. Do not rely on heresay, your pastor, imam, holy junkie to read and interpret it on your behalf. Pick it up and read it for yourself THE PROBLEM IS THAT YOU WERE NOT CAPABLE OF DOING THAT YOURSELF. Even your own ANALOGY shows how ignorant and unintelligent you are! In Mathematics, there is a situation where "1 + 1 = 11." That is BASE TWO, where the only two numerals used are "0" and "1." In BASE TWO, 11 is TWO! Therefore, someone taking their child out of Math Class, because they saw "1 + 1 = 11" in a textbook would be a fool indeed. 2) You find a hard time explaining your religion to other people: Whenever someone else asks you "why" about your religious teachings you seem to find it difficult explaining it to them. No matter how hard and long you try to explain, you always seem to end up at a dead end. Most times, your religious teachings just do not make enough sense when you try explaining it to someone else. The Religions that matter most have millions of adherents, and make millions of proselytes. They found it very easy to explain themselves. I have not yet heard of any Religion that found itself difficult to explain to Unbelievers. You don't seem to know much about Religion yourself, or else you would have given us examples. Honestly, if your religion was from the one true "God", it wouldn't be that difficult to explain, now would it? All you do is talk- but there is no substance to what you say. It is only difficult to explain things when Steps of Learning are omitted. If you want to begin from The Middle, or the End, or not follow Simple Instructions, DAMN STRAIGHT, explaining anything to you will be impossible. Afterall, God is not one of confusion. These statements sound fair and pious to the IGNORANT LAYMAN, whereas those who actually READ The Bible know that when CONFUSION is first described in The Bible, GOD was the SOURCE. . GENESIS 11:1-9. AND the whole Earth was of one language, and of one speech. 2. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the East, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 3. And they said one to another, "Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter. 4. And they said, "Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto Heaven; and let us make us a Name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the Face of the whole Earth." 5. And The LORD came down to see the City and the Tower, which the Children of Men builded. 6. And The LORD said, "Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 7. "Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech." 8. So The LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the Face of all the Earth: and they left off to build the City. 9. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because The LORD did there confound the language of all the Earth: and from thence did The LORD scatter them abroad upon the Face of all the Earth. EVERY CRITIC OF THE BIBLE HAS TO KNOW THIS STORY. Therefore you know that you are deliberately lying to mislead the ignorant. . GENESIS 19:11. 11. And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door. IS THIS HOW YOU MAD PEOPLE SEE YOURSELVES- AS SMITING THE PROTESTANTS AND NON-CATHOLICS WITH BLINDNESS- TO PREVENT WHAT YOU SEE AS DESECRATION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, WHICH YOU SEE AS YOUR MASTER'S PERSONAL PROPERTY? 3) Your religion seems to be plagiarized from other older religions: This one is a hard one to notice especially if you do not have adequate knowledge of other religions. If your religion has similar stories from other older religions then your religion is obviously fake. Afterall, God doesn't copy and paste. THE KEMITES have this THEORY, that the TEN COMMANDMENTS are PLAGIARIZED from the 42 CONFESSIONS TO THE GODDESS MAAT. (Maybe they learned Mathematics from YOUR Jesuit School?) Therefore the 613 COMMANDMENTS of THE LAW OF MOSES must be plagiarized from EGYPTIAN MYTHOLOGY. YAHWEH GOD creates a NEW CIVILIZATION- and he is supposed to throw out EVERY COMMONLY KNOWN CONCEPT OF RIGHT & WRONG? CONSCIENCE is the basis of CIVILIZED BEHAVIOR- therefore all Religions generally have Commandments in common, to prevent Anarchy and Chaos, such as YOU are trying to induce. To verify this, you would have to read up on ancient religions and point out the similarities with yours. If there are any, your religion is false. That does not follow. That is like invalidating someone pointing at the Moon, because other people have also pointed at the same thing. Do you apply this same reasoning to ART, or to SCIENCE? An artwork is not art, because someone else also made something similar? A Scientific Discovery is not real, or the Discoverer is a fake genius, because someone else discovered the same thing before? Do you renounce CHARLES DARWIN, because he PLAGIARIZED ALFRED BUTLER?

| Re: How To Know If Your Religion Is The Fake One! by DeepSight(m): 8:08pm On Oct 07, 2016 |
KingEbukasBlog: Yes, very much - I have thought about it very much indeed; by way of a little history I once was very very passionately Christian, but this dissipated about the age of twenty/ early twenties. I have still thought about it more recently. The reason the question doesn't bother me is because I do not imagine that a Divine being such as God is, with its transcendent quality, will assess mere human spirits on their understanding, grasp or cognition of specific divine relationships of transcendental divine beings. I honestly believe that is too much to demand of any earthling - and if demanded, would appear an unfair and unnecessary demand. I would think that the purity of heart of an earthling is what should count in such a matter. And I believe that this is what was taught by Jesus (as conveyed in the Bible). In all such cases I always refer people to one of my all time favorite posts ever made on Nairaland - made by probably the wisest man ever to grace this forum, M_Nwankwo - https://www.nairaland.com/687376/true-meaning-love-nwankwo I have expressed similar views using the Parable of the Good Samaritan as a benchmark - https://www.nairaland.com/634923/wallace-cannot-good-god-does#8025566 |

Mujtahida: In so many ways, I say I totally understand you. People like you question everything, and that is totally right. You need answers, and most of all, I can't give them to you. You said the things you would do if you were God. But you aren't, and I am not. All I know about this life is, the more we think we know, we know nothing. People have gained wisdom beyond our understanding, people have gone through the depth of understanding life in so many ways, but have lost it. I can't say I understand the thoughts of God. But I am sure of one thing, that the bible wasn't written by someone to make it fit to some particular generics. It was written as it happened. The things of the metaphysical agrees that there is a greater power, and the bible proofs who has such powers. God. I can't stop the wrought happening in this world, and I do know that even if God gave us the time to speak through us, it doesn't stop us from being sinners or being who we are. Do you remember the story of when Jesus Christ was hung on the cross. When he said "Father, forgive them, because they don't know what they are doing''. Do you remember what the people around said? He saved a lot of people, why can't he save himself? Did you ask yourself the same question you are asking me, Why didn't God appear there to show himself? Because there was a reason.. And that reason, I do not understand, and that is why we do not understand the ways of God. You have said what you would do if you were God. But you aren't. Do you remember the guy who was saved, the criminal. Who said to the other criminal ''we deserve what we got, despite our sins, you and I do not deserve to condemn Jesus'' And Jesus answered, '"Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise". This criminal was not baptized by any Pastor, this criminal didn't give his life to Christ the way we do in Churches, this criminal did not go to any Theological school, this criminal only accepted in his heart that God truly exist. And he was saved. My dear, I have no idea what you are going through, and you need not go to Church to believe, for me, I live like this Criminal, and I accept Jesus Christ like this Criminal because he has saved me more than a million times. I totally believe there is a greater power, I believe totally in God. I believe Jesus Christ died for my sins, I believe totally in Christianity, and I will give my world to live in Christ. |
