 he's wrong. at least my family aren't freaks and pretenders.  just me.

i think some of them are just brainwashed. but that's a good thing because i wish i believe in God. but i just don't and i can't.  .... i pretend to be sometimes though because i don't wan't my little brother to stop believing.

So many pretenders in church. When i go, i just go there to look, and smile with friends. It's funny though. It's well.

Do you give offerings in church? I do sometimes. Infact i don't even go in the big church, my dad doesn't like church...so we always go like 30 minutes to closing time, and then i'll go to the teenagers section.

 it depends on the church though Huh. my church's not for pretenders. we're real true christians (except for me of course.i wish i was)
i go to the teenage section too...... but i give offerings all the time. i respect christians and christianity.
hot-angel (f)
Re: "I don't believe in God, but I go to church"
« #12 on: August 18, 2005, 05:55 AM »

I also respect chirtsians and christianity. I give offerings when i feel  like.

@ terry, if wishes were horses, beggar would ride. My dad doesn't like church and that makes me worry sometimes. Sad

do people argue in your church, is there love. i heard from my parents that some churches argue and such. infact i've seen churches like that. my church's different. we all love each other and help out. even when my other sister was really sick.

U have no business in church if u don't believe GOD and from the posts (above) I think u guys go to the wrong church(my parents church thingy).
Church is good (offering or no offering).

Why go to Church when you don't believe in God?
please believe in Him He is real and alive.

He loves you so much.

It's not on Sunday alone or during a ceremony that you ought to go to Church.

You've got to attend weekly activities like Bible study, Prayer meeting e.t.c.

Greatpeter, when your Nigerian parents believe in God and go to church, and you're living with them, you have no choice but to go to church.  Unless you're over 21 and very strong-willed, like me.  Even then your relationship with your parents will become intolerable from the day you stop following them.  I know from experience.

i cannot believe that u guys just go to church for the fun of it.......

man....u guys had better change.......

its not all about goin to church....

its depends on ur personal relationship with God

hot angel......i'm surprised u don't believe in God

Re: "I don't believe in God, but I go to church"
« #20 on: August 18, 2005, 07:45 PM »

Hmmph, don't be suprised my dear. I believe in God, but not like the believe i should believe. I know there might be God, but the way i should believe in him isn't how i believe in him. If there's God, cool...if there's no God, great. I just know that God has answered my prayer before. (that should explain my signature).  Cheesy

Convince you about why i don't believe in God as I should? Well if i start, we ain't gon go nowhere. It will be complete confusion, Infact it won't be sweet. Religion issues are wide! Don't want to start.  Smiley

I think the real question here is:

What makes you not believe?
hot-angel (f)
Re: "I don't believe in God, but I go to church"
« #26 on: August 18, 2005, 08:29 PM »

What makes me not believe? Okay i guess u don't understand me. I believe in God, but not like Believe believe. I ain't against God, but neither am i totally for him. I am just neutral.

I understood what you were saying, Hot-Angel, I was just wondering about Wesley.

The question for you would be:

What's stopping you from being 100% for God?

Just curious.

Re: "I don't believe in God, but I go to church"
« #28 on: August 18, 2005, 08:36 PM »

100% from God, Nothing! I actualy do what I know is right...And that's it.

as a nigerian you cannot help but believe in God. You know, you can put two sentences together in yoruba without mentioning God for example. Oluwa lo se (God performed it) Oloun mo pe (eve God know that ) etc. You cannot be yoruba descendant and not believe in God. I mean you mention God every day. you get my drift.

Someone once told me a long time ago that he would rather believe in God with all his heart, die, and find out it's false than to not believe in God with all his heart, die, and find out it's true!
