emmatee57:
my dear, don't be blind folded by the things of this world to the point of saying "heaven does't exist" if you say so, who is the God that divide the red sea? who sent fire to burn the watered & well wetted offerings of Prophet Elijah? where does Jesus came from & where does He went back to? uncountable ways i can cincerely tell u there is God & heaven exists!

Thanks for your advice. At least you didn't insult me like the others. I'll however give you a few points.

Dividing the red sea or sending down fire to consume Elijah's sacrifice or where Jesus came from and where he went to are not evidences that the christian god or heaven is real or exist. Magicians have done more and surprisingly science has surpassed all. (I can give you books that explained all the biblical miracles scientifically).

The same bible that made you have that faith is a killer's handbook whose title should be, HOW TO MURDER AND COMMIT GENOCIDE AND GET AWAY WITH IT. So if a book teaches me hatred, racism, intolerance, mass murder etc just like the bible, why should I believe anything from it especially a heaven nothing can point to as any iota of evidence?

We say things about the Muslims not knowing that worse things are written in the bible.

which God is present...

I strongly believe you need help more than I do. You live your life in fear of something you don't have evidence about it's existence. Religious leaders whip you into line with tales of heaven and hell. They tell you the end is near but they are still acquiring property and private jets and still sinking you into more fear of hell fire if you don't do their bidding. It's you that need help, bro.

Go to church, spend plenty money. Stay at home, save the small you have and think of how to generate more. All these pastors be using threat words indirectly so that you must part with something. Shey one pastor in SA bought a sweet ride that the doors can go up in the sky just yesterday Avoid religion, both Islam and others, get wise and innovative.

heaven is the abode of God that is somewhere in the sky. God did not gives us the ability to see it with our naked eyes while alive. Don't worry when you're old, has enjoyed your children, get tired and decide to give up, you will know the exact location of it in the sky and you will see it with your eyes. Seeing is believing

They are so many things the unclad eye cannot see in the sky which telescopes have helped us to do. Science has been able to look back 13.7 billion years into our past. I'm satisfied with that. Until science invents a telescope powerful enough to view that part of the sky your god lives, he and his heaven remain a mirage.

There's really no choice. You shouldn't make up tales in your head and claim people have a choice to believe or not. That's nonsense.

You claim there's a heaven? Have you been there? Where is it? What goes on there? Why is death the only way to reach its gates?
My bro, we all do have a choice, take it or leave it...and heaven is real !!! Believe it or live in ignorance all your life...if u want to know if truly It does read your Bible wella

The answer is, you and i don't know for sure whether or not the universe was designed by much more intelligent celestial agent. We need to find out. Hopefully, philosophers and scienctists have been scrambling for millennia to unravel the likely answers.

You don't get to make claims and pronouncements of knowing much more while we all are still human with limited knowledge to investigate this tremendous complexities lying before our eyes, both the one we can see and beyoud.

How do YOU know there is heaven

Some islamic reports have it on good authority that heaven is a fun filled place with 72 virgins.


Why is their's wrong and yours right
Okay, look at it this way.Heaven is suppose to be a paradise, a place of reward for the righteous and Jesus Christ, the disciples and other prophets emphasised on the importance of making heaven and you think the ultimate reward is SEX such an earthly activity.It is place for believers to live in eternity with God.Why would God want us to live a righteous and at the day our ultimate reward is to "Kerewa" with 72 virgins?

our existence is universe's way of experiencing itself. The Universe is made up of concious and unconcious things.Concious is awareness e.g.Humans,animals,other beings existing in other different realms that we can not see nor interact physically with but we are all connected by ENERGY which is the most straightforward definition of what the universe represents.Unconcious e.g tress,rainfall,stone,asteriods,planets etc. So in essence we are all one acting in different scope,thats knowledge.you are not different from the rain or the sand of the earth,we are all one universe. The universe is eternal,energy can never be destroyed nor diminish.Am existing because am a part of concious universe.

Jesuobu:
The thoughts of heaven alone gives you energy and can make you feel like flying without wings. It's the best source of motivation I have ever seen. When you think of heaven, fear dissappear and you get anxious to do good.

To do unbelievable things is simple. Take your mind out of this earth and put all your focus on heaven. It’s analogous to focusing on the finish line instead of just your next step in an athletic race. That’s what Usain Bolt does. I have made heaven my goal and the motivation I get now is not a synthetic one but divine. Unbelievable wisdom and understanding.

Read Matthew 6:33 and you will know why this is so.

And it says Matthew 6:33 and he will give you all you need from day to day if you live for him and make the Kingdom of God your primary concern
abeg I no wan go heaven or anywhere near the evil monster you call god

No we are not. We are only concerned on how Christianity is slowing the pace of development in black Africa. You don't just practice your religion. You dominate everything with the heaven/hell blackmail and slow everything down. That's our concern. How you worship is your business. How your worship affects the society is everybody's business.

Just reading some of the atheistic comments here. So some people still believe that God does not exist and that heaven is not real? Even in this 21st century? God have Mercy on us all!

I believe in the existence of God, I don't know about you. And why I believe so much is because I have FAITH. And what is FAITH? It is "the substance of things hoped, the evidence of things not seen"Heb. 11vs1. Yes.,faith is the conviction that God is real even without seeing him.

Why don't you keep believing in while you still have the opportunity? There is this Igbo maxim which has kept waxing stronger in faith. It says that " there is absolutely no disadvantage in believing in God and doing that which is upright and good because, if eventually you die in righteousness and discovers there is no God, earth will speak good of you. But if you die in sin and discovers God is real, you will not only be known on earth as an evil doer, but will also spend your eternity in hell". So in a nutshell, living a Christlike life pays.

So you mean there are no nice people without blemish who don't believe in your Jesus? An old man who is known to be very wicked died in my village. Before he died his children brought a pastor that baptized him and he 'accepted' Jesus before he died. He committed so much atrocities known to everyone. Please is he going to heaven? If your answer is yes you can see why religion is a huge joke.

If people start loving each other, not all these yeye love.. "Real love" then sufferin will end or reduce..

I don't believe you. Religion preaches that god blesses whom he chooses. He made the Israelites untouchables. He rescues one passenger out of a bus full while the others perish. So tell me how people will have love when the world is ruled with this manner of god?

We'll only live in peace and develop when we realize that nature didn't make us equal. That most things happen by chance and it's not anyone's fault to be born blind or crippled or mentally ill. That there's no Adam and Eve that ate an apple which is responsible for millions of children going to bed hungry everyday especially in third world countries. Remove religion from society and there will be peace and development.

"As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of son of Man" .. Agidi is bad

Did Noah preach to the babies? What about Samuel's instruction to Saul to kill everything in Amalek including babies and pregnant women? And you people will be condemning Boko haram.
