Let's forget about whether it's sinful or not. I can assure u that if u have a deep seated, revelation inspired, personal relationship with christ (I don't mean just going to church and saying u are a Christian) u will discover that it is just impossible to deny Him under any circumstances. 4 Likes |

cold: My dear, it's worrisome to know that after the death of the living Christ Jesus 2000 years ago, there are still people who believe that God does not exist. Hosea 4:6 is indeed true. May the same God whom you believe does not exist, have mercy on you |

in a world full of different opinion and belief... i stand to beg that you read my comment through before you comnent! i would have quoted so many good people here but i choose to play solo... do you realise the reason you were created? solely to worship God, do the right things to pleased God d best way u can... now how can u worship thy wen u are dead? thats not possible... the person pointing a gun at you is a sinner and you dont need to prove how righteous u are to him by not denying christ! ask your self, what would christ want me to do? to be shoot dead by this person? or to live and carry on christ name? we all get misconception of many things about life... for it is said that wen man founds himself in a land were the food available in dat land is that which you forbid and God forbids you to eat them... but you are very hungry that u may die of hunger... u are allowed to eat that food to stay alive not becos u stil dont forbid it... but as of that moment dat food is blessed by God... conderming ur self to death is a sin for your life is nt in d hands of anoda man... dont give him a chance to tk it... to end this talk i will gv a simple example... i believe we know God said we must honor our parents first b4 we honor thy... now arm robber came to your home... in front of your father/mother they ask you to deny that he/she isnt your father/mother or u would be killed... wat do u think your father/mother would want u to do..?? take Jesus christ as your father/mother in this case... thank you... salaam(peace) |

macdelene: You don't deny God under duress, that is not way to measure having faith in Christ. Jesus self cried unto God at the last minute to take away the cup from him despite knowing he's the saviour of men according to the scriptures. So what are you saying? |

@op, yes its a sin and like every other sin it can be forgiven by virtue of the grace of God. But we should be mindful not to abuse this grace. Romans 6:1-4 |

lets not be logical here, it's the worst sin a good Christian can commit against God, but as humans who love life, it's very difficult to accept |

Daniel 3:16-30 New International Version (NIV) Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter.If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.” Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude toward them changed. He ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual and commanded some of the strongest soldiers in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego and throw them into the blazing furnace. So these men, wearing their robes, trousers, turbans and other clothes, were bound and thrown into the blazing furnace. The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the flames of the fire killed the soldiers who took up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and these three men, firmly tied, fell into the blazing furnace. Then King Nebuchadnezzar leaped to his feet in amazement and asked his advisers, “Weren’t there three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?” They replied, “Certainly, Your Majesty.” He said, “Look! I see four men walking around in the fire, unbound and unharmed, and the fourth looks like a son of the gods.” Nebuchadnezzar then approached the opening of the blazing furnace and shouted, “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out! Come here!” So Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego came out of the fire, and the satraps, prefects, governors and royal advisers crowded around them. They saw that the fire had not harmed their bodies, nor was a hair of their heads singed; their robes were not scorched, and there was no smell of fire on them. Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants! They trusted in him and defied the king’s command and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God. Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego be cut into pieces and their houses be turned into piles of rubble, for no other god can save in this way.” Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the province of Babylon. Footnotes: a. Daniel 3:17 Or If the God we serve is able to deliver us, then he will deliver us from the blazing furnace and 16 17 [a] 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 |

leonshom:Once you denied Christ under whichever circumstances, you shut yourself out of the kingdom of God permanently. Stay put, and you will see the salvation of God. Thank you. Matthew 10:33 "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven." |
