Sacluxpaint: The bolded is what I want to hear. So u didn't break a neck, had no bleeding, no brain damage, no spinal cord damage, so why should you die? Those who died without injuries died because of excessive fear of the occurrence of that accident. I know of a woman who was almost hit by a motorcycle. she wasn't hit but she collapsed and died. Doctors said she was killed of heart attack. Same thing happen to the spiritual but fearful people today. They die of heart attack in their sleep while seeing nightmares, and they term it spiritual attack. lol. |

SHALOM! Omooba77: WHAT SENSE DOES IT MAKE, to talk about "CHRISTIANS," without defining WHAT A CHRISTIAN IS, and WHAT A CHRISTIAN IS NOT? Your querying can go nowhere, while you are vague on the idea of what a Christian is, and is not. A CHRISTIAN IS A PERSON WHO FOLLOWS THE TEACHINGS OF YAHSHUA IN ALL SITUATIONS; A HYPOCRITE IS SOMEONE WHO SAYS THAT THEY ARE A CHRISTIAN, BUT DO NOT FOLLOW THE TEACHINBS OF YAHSHUA IN ALL SITUATIONS. You yourself have the wicked belief that it is perfectly all right for a Christian to disobey the Teachings of Yahshua, so long as they keep going to Church, and pay lip-service to God and Yahshua- that is why you are confused! . MATTHEW 7:1-6. “JUDGE not, that ye be not judged. 2. "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3. "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4. "Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, 'LET ME PULL OUT THE MOTE OUT OF THINE EYE;' and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5. "Thou Hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. 6. "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you." You have done worse than what those Backsliders have done. |

In my own view, many parent are pastoring their Children directly by themselves why it is not suppose not to be! No body is born to Christianity! U can only bounce into it by the reason of personal conviction. This must take place imidiatly a child know the right from wrong in life. |

Omooba77: they turn there back because 85% of them never had a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ..... all they grew up to no is that they must go to church on sundays, and for churches that don't wear jewelry, if you ask some of the youth n teen why they are not putting on the jewelry,they will say we don't wear it in our church, or our pastor said it a sin...... To be a Christian you must a have a personal encounter with Jesus Christ himself.... #shalom# 1 Like |

Omooba77: What's happening is simply intellectual globalization. We were raised and exposed to either Xtianity or Islam at home and in our schools. The information age, internet precisely has exposed us to the myriad of religions across the world, removing the veil of sanctity we placed on what we were raised to believe. Plus the easily contestable and contradictory "fables" of the "holy books" contradicts and conflicts with intellect. Besides, perhaps a sign from God like the good ol days would easily validate these claims but we know that's never going to happen. Our parents found their religious paths, the onus is on us as adults to find ours. 1 Like |

Using my case as an example . . . Religion is just one of the schematic inventions made by man to control the minds of other men. My lecturer once told my class during my Unilag days that the beginning the problems we face in religion started from the famous line -You shall have no other God except me. Human beings generally aren't hostile to each other, but that famous line has given people the perfect excuse to belittle and condemn / kill and maim a person all for the fact that he doesn't share religious beliefs and doctrines with you. . . I remember visiting my dad as a child (my parents aren't together) and while we were walking on the road ,my dad who is very religious would point at muslims in their mosques and say "Look at them, all grinding their faces in the dust,they're all going to hell". . .this used to make me sad with my childish mind that my muslim friends in my class would go to hell . . .other times my father would point at white-garment-church goers passing in front of the house and say they would also go to hell because they were "false" christians. .this also made me sad because my so much loved grandmother and many of my aunts who all go to "C and S" white garment church would end up in hell. . .watching all the condescending manners and jealousy church members even in the same church had for each other . .always trying to out-do each other. .watching people sing,pray,cry and give offerings in church , leave , then break every commandments in the Bible all week only to come back the next Sunday to sing,pray,cry and give offering over and over again was tiring. . .and all these only made me wonder what the point of religion was? This is where pastors get their hold on their members-they will tell you to question your religion and it's teachings and doctrines is a sin. But it isn't, human beings have a naturally curious mind and it is only human to want to know the meaning and origin of something. .but they never give you that chance just as my pastor never gave me a chance when I asked him questions,telling me it was the devil putting questions in my mind to challenge God's words. After I got into Uni , I started my search on religion, digging for answers to the questions I had been asking myself all these years and after my research I realized my mind had been idle and dogmatic for years. It's different for everyone but from my own deductions I believe there is a God . .but this God is unknown and probably unknowable. .because our minds as humans are not capable or wired to know who God is . So the truth is,we can't know God or communicate with God because we were never meant to. Religion is just an attempt to know God and since attempts are never the same ,thus,religion varies from place to place. If you were born in turkey,you would most likely be a Muslim, calling christians "infidels" and if you were born in Italy ,you would most likely be a Catholic looking down on other christians. But it still doesn't matter ,no matter your attempt,you can't know who God is. This belief is called Agnosticism (so I would call myself an agnostic) and it is opposed to Atheism, which doesn't believe in any God or divine being. Think - it's not illegal yet. Use your brain. Don't let any body think for you or shove down two thousand year old doctrines down your throat. .cause these doctrines have even been abandoned by the people who introduced them to us at the point of whips and chains. Even they know religion does not give room for improvement as it is still the same recycled junk over and over again. .what they say to us in church and mosques is what they said to 200 years ago in church. .but it still isn't stopping tsunamis,earthquakes,plagues and wars from happening, is it? 6 Likes 1 Share |

walls01: the cardinal teaching of religion is worshipping a god, but the cardinal things I am sent to the world to teach are these: *use your brain *worship no god *do good to humanity There has never been any religious book where the word 'brain' was written. They hide the brain and its use from the people. BUT THE DOCTUFOS OF TRUTH is here, saying USE THAT BRAIN. See more from the link below: https://www.nairaland.com/2938907/doctrine-ufos |

akpobi: You insult me, then say no offense. You attack my person and not my ideology and you say no offense. You claim to know more about God, and then you insult me and say I suffer schizophrendia, but I forgive you and your bias. Let me say this here and now again. I have read the entire 66 books of the Christian Bible twice in this lifetime, I have been baptized into Christianity, anointed as Elder into the Aaronic and Melchizedek Priesthood. Worked in a Church's presidency, preached the gospel of Jesus Christ as an Elder and I see people crying on account of my inspiring teachings on Faith, yet you insult such a Man ? I am sad for you, because you are mentally not fit to understand my sojourn and journey, I dedicate my life to research and yet you think you know more ? I think you are silly to insult me. 1 Like |

The simple reason is 'MALNOURISHMENT' Too much 'artificial foods' being sold by 'vendors' have left many believers stunted, deformed, and out-of-shape. Especially in this era where stress is much and a lot of energy is needed to pull through. |

The so called gospel is failing us... Try Geting to the root or try making a thorough investigation into the activities of some churches around you, only then you understand we don't have gospel around anymore... . . Tope Alibi once hailed or praised her pastor, PST. Ajanaku . Unknowingly, the pastor appeared to be a cultist, he belonged to the Ogboni cult, this was revealed after his death anyways. |
