I couldn't help but burst into laughter when i was reading your post.You said christian have lost a lot when living you made metion of prayer, fasting, tithe and and all church activities' You are a lazy man. Are you saying you are loosing something when you are speaking?prayer and fasting is an exercise to our body. Concerning tithe, do you loose if you give money to beggar? I don't think you can give money to the beggar. Some beggars are more rich than people that were given then money. For this reason, you don't loose what you can afford that you willingly give out. Apart from this, can you tell me if there can be any remembrance of what you have done when living on earth after death?if there wil not be remembrance of that.it shows that the problems passed or overcame are no longer problems.

'You are seeking to enjoy the expirence of this one life' How will you enjoy this one life, that christians can not?I think that is the answer iam expecting for my question. You have wife, we have.you are walking, christian are walking etc.what do you stand to gain? The only things atheists can do that Christians can not do are. You can be a wumonizer, you can be practising homosexuality. Drinking alcohol,smoking cigarette, marijuna,wearing indecent dresses, killing,stealing etc. If you are an atheist and you dislike all those things i made mentioned above,then, why did you reject God ?what did God demands from you that is so difficult to do? The law of God is perfect.


My friend don't wait untill when God will flip your a55 fit to hell .

For us Christians we don't need rewards to believe in what we do ... we know the truth.


Titus 3:9 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.

991:
Since the beginning of recorded history, which is defined by the invention of writing by the Sumerians around 6,000 years ago, historians have cataloged over 3,700 supernatural beings, of which 2,870 can be considered deities. So next time someone tells me they believe in God, I’ll say “Oh which one? Zeus? Hades? Jupiter? Mars? Odin? Thor? Krishna? Vishnu? If they say “Just God. I only believe in the one God,” I’ll point out that they are nearly as atheistic as me. I don’t believe in 2,870 gods, and they don’t believe in 2,869.

God bless u for this insightful comment. My only prayer for as many that claim to be atheist and abusers of God, their creator, who can take the breath of life out of them within a second is that they will surrender to the Same God through Christ Jesus before departing this earth.

opeoluwa2: May God give us spiritual understanding in bringing my point home.
When God finished creating this world,he looked at it and was happy because everything was beautiful.(Gen 1 vs 31)
Now after the creation,God made man and put him incharge of the creation to watch over the earth and all that it had and to replenish the earth.
There was no issue of death,heaven or hell when God made the world.
All God wanted was to commune with man at the cool of evening(Gen 3vs8).After everyday's work.
So primarily worshipping God is not for heaven purpose but for worship,communication and fellowship.

Now after the disobedience of Adam and Eve,man fell short of God's glory and "DIED".spiritually.
This was what brought about redemption and need for repentance that brought about heaven and hell.
Those who refuse to repent from this spiritual "DEATH" will find themselves where satan the originator of disobedience is.While those who repent will find themselves with God.For the purpose of creation,fellowship and companionship to be fulfilled.
God is only trying to bring us back to his original purpose of creation.


I hope I have been able to clarify some things
Thank you.

all4naija: Hmmmmmmmmmm...Huh! Sister in Christ and Atheist to be. What reality do you make out of the creation, spirituality and death in this your comment?

Ayomivic:


If there is nothing after death, i have nothing to loose.
Are you 100% sure there is nothing after death?
What if there is something after death?

Logicboy03: The op of this thread would be arrested if foolish threads were a crime.

I am an atheist not because of some reward but because it is a realistic stance. It is the same way I'm not looking for rewards when I chose not to believe in elves or goblins.

There is no single shred of evidence for God or gods. Religion is not necessary. There is nothing good that a religious person can do that a non religious person can not do.

Billyonaire: You are not an atheist by reason, you are atheist by choice. There is enough reason to not be atheist, but since its now the 'new cool' to say one is atheist, then its possible that mentally lazy persons refuse to advance in knowledge by getting stucked on logical reasoning which lacks premise to adjudge esoteric concepts.

Sagamite:



Brilliant points!

Watching starving babies is part of that God's trials and tribulations testing of their commitment to him. It would be a testimony in future.

Logicboy03:


Are you Illuminati? Wetin concern me concern esoteric and occultic knowledge?


Abegi, let me follow my atheism and science dey go. Keep on with your alchemy and astrology

Billyonaire: Illuminati or not, if your quest to understanding God and deities is sincere, then you will be humble enough to shop thru diverse schools of thoughts to emancipate yourself from logical traps, but apparently, you are bent on getting stucked permanently in your comfortable state of atheism. I was atheist for a decade cos religion made no sense to me as pertains to God and spirits, I kept searching until I know for sure that there are elite energy beings who designed the cosmic realms and even the dimensions beyond the 3rd. I have seen things that you may not be privileged to witness in your lifetime but I can proof to you that there are advance energy beings beyond the intelligence of mortals. And I can make them startle you to knowing the truth.

991: 'The gullibility of the brain of an average nigerian church goer' why must it be about gaining before you choose your stand??
that's why pastors are making millions weekly out of your ignorance and gullible minds.
they just quote few verses of the same bible you have at home, and you shout Ameeeen!!! I claim it!! etc. then you give them 10% of your earning, you sing, dance and go home hungry.
in return, all you stand to gain is promises of life after death, etc.

Sagamite:


So what happened to your psychotic God while the so-called devil is making innocent, defenseless kids he created suffer immensely.

Your God does not have efficient Social Care Services in his kingdom to stop the devil or he just prefers to watch and enjoy himself?

opeoluwa2:

Atheist to be??
Never!!!!!!!
I had an encounter with christ when I was a child. When I was too young to understand spiritual issues.
I did anyway,I'm too old to do otherwise.
I believe there is God.
I don't serve God primarily because of heaven,but because I have a relationship with him and I love him.

kj_hova: Train a child in the ways of the Lord and when he grows up he shall not depart therein.

Re-read: Brainwash a child when young & gullible so that when he grows up he'd already be too trapped in the fable to escape it.
