Eh??
Abeg wait first. Before I was born there were no clear warning signs telling me that I was commiting any sin ok... I was in the womb minding my own business. Now when I came out, sheeples started telling me I commited a sin so great that Jeses had to hang himself on a cross to pay for it.
You expect me to believe that?

You had better believe it because it is the truth. You can't sweep the unmatched claims of Jesus under the carpet because he proved it. He is the only one that conquered death. You will one day die and rot. Jesus is alive forever more. So, he is the only one that can save you.

It's not all about living forever. It is much more about living a life free from pains and suffering and a life at peace with his maker. A life of confident hope for the future. A life that is without frustration. A life where you can experience the supernatural. A life without impossibility. You can only get it in Christ.

how did you come to the conclusion that you can get such only in Christ or as a Christian.. I've seen people who are not Christians yet they live with more happiness than most Christians.. there are aspects of theism that doesn't include Jesus.. yet people from there can boldly report being fulfilled.. so once again.. how did you come to the “only in Christ" conclusion

That is where the problem of atheists lies. You cannot see beyond your nose. All you care about is the brief period you spend here on earth, you are oblivious to the afterlife that spans all eternity.

i am not an atheist and i never claimed to be... i believe in an afterlife of some sort.. i only asked a question.. why is it always about the afterlife.. why do we seem to give up the known for the unknown? we can both agree that there is an afterlife.. but what monopoly of the nature of the afterlife do you have? it is one thing to say that there is a ball there and another to describe the ball.. i agree that i don't KNOW what happens after death.. i only BELIEVE.. but for those who claim to know.. whether Christians or Muslims or Hindus or jews... on what universal basis do they stand?

Happiness or fulfillment outside Christ is only on the surface. Deep within, they still lack peace that only Jesus can give. Jesus is the Prince of peace. Until you have Jesus, you can't have real peace.

My basis is on the solid Words of the One who created the universe and stepped out of eternity into time about 2,000 years ago. What's the basis of your belief? undecided

The Bible is the word of God because the Bible says it's the word of God. The Quran makes similar noises about Allah's word. Why should we disregard the Quran and accept the Bible? Both of them make the same argument about being the word of God or Allah. Muslims claim the Quran is the best book ever, and thus it's Allah's dictate (most even say it existed eternally with him). If you don't agree, well, then I guess they just say you're in denial. For that matter, the Vedas claim to be inspired as well. Hindus claim the Vedas are inspired in a different way than the Bible and Quran but the claim is still made. Baha'is claim the Kitáb-i-Aqdas is inspired. Buddhists consider the Tripitaka (Pali Canon), Mahayana Sutras and the Tibetan Book of the Dead to be sacred. The Word o' God™ books are a dime a dozen.

Edit: isn't it funny how Christians keep wishing atheism into your life? its likeif they call you atheists for a number of times you'll have no choice than to become one

Please, just tell me any other book that competes with the Bible is popularity and authenticity. If you can't, you are permitted to keep quiet for life on this issue.

to me..the problem with the claim of inspiration is not even in the claim itself.. afterall.. no one would want to follow a faith that claims its just ordinary.. the problem is the aggressiveness at which the adherents of the inspired claims put down others from other faiths.. claiming the monopoly they don't have or attributing the rest to demons

I don't have the monopoly of any claim but Jesus does and I believe him because I have experienced him.

He is the only one born without the agency of man.

He is the only one that had hundreds of recorded prophecies before he was born and they all came to fulfillment.

He is the only one that performed unmatched miracles and he is still doing it.

He is the only one that claimed he is the only way to God.

He is the first man that ever called God his father and claimed equality with God.

He is the only one who died and rose from the dead as predicted by him.

He is the only one that promised to come back to take his people home.

No other founder of any religion ever made any claim close to this. And virtually all religious leaders made reference to Jesus.

No one compares with Jesus. I am so proud to be identified with the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

And everyone including you will one day stand before Jesus to be judged by him.

Please it is better you accept him now as your Lord and personal Saviour than to meet him as your judge.

I know because I have heard the testimony of many of such people who the world thought they were having the best in life only to confess they were living a miserable life.

Only Jesus can give you real peace. Try him and you will come back with testimony.

let me start by saying this.. religion does not equate to God.. there are tons of people claiming to create the universe but we both believe in the judeochristian God.. ok.. but you believe all information concerning him is given by the jews and all information given by the jews is true.. therefore you believe their letters to be the only representation of God.. but i don't.. also.. Jesus whom you claim to follow.. Yahshua .. there are many beliefs about him.. your son co equal God coming to judge the earth in the sky and all is just one of the beliefs.. if you can convince me that the Jesus you portray is the same as the historical Jesus, I'd follow you to take the Nicene creed invented around 300ad

Mohammed never made any unique claim. Rather he expressed his inability to save and even affirmed that Muslims will go to hell after which Allah will deliver those who are worthy. Are you aware of this?

I suppose you are referring to the doctrine of "eternal security" there is nothing like that. The Bible says "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). When a believer sins and genuinely repents, he is forgiven and restored back to fellowship due to the finished work of Christ and His present intercession in heaven as our High Priest. This does not apply to those who habitually practise sin.

so are you saying after confessing, he is expected to use the law to help guide him from repeating the vomit he spewed out?

can you share what signs and wonders have followed you after you started exposing the sinner's schoolmaster? such as raising the dead, visible miracles like the apostles did?
