3 Things That Can Kill Your Christian Faith by Thepasserby(m): 9:38pm On Mar 25, 2017
Christianity is a race which does not belong to the swift but to those who are knowledgeable about whom they follow. In Christianity, relationship is very vital and important, that is what builds up your faith. I have read a good number of comments on what people think about Christianity.

These are three things that can kill your Christian Faith.

1. Building your faith around a fellow man

No matter how annointed a man or woman of God is, s/he is still a human being with weaknesses and capable of falling into sin or temptation.

It is a good thing to have a spiritual father but it is a bad thing to base your christinity on the vision of a fellow man. He might be more spiritual than you are but take this from me, you are both equal before God. The difference between the two of you is the level of sacrifice and commitment to God.
Listen to what God is telling you and not what others have heard from God.

2. Refusing to submit

The major seasoning our belief lacks is not faith but submission. We are too stubborn that we don't want to hear God anymore. We are so educated that we think our pastors can no longer tell us what God is saying about our life. Lack of submission is an act of rebellion.

3. Absence of a good relationship with God

Christian race is all about relationship. If your relationship with God is bad, you are just wasting your time and energy.

This should be the first step in every Christian race.


The laws guiding christianity are simple and true. Follow them and receive life.

God does not exist

We have been expecting his coming since 5 million years ago

He will throw people who don't believe in him into the hell fire ?? What type of fire is in that hell fire ?? It has been flaming for 5 million years without stopping and the people in it haven't turned to ashes ??

God sits in heaven, in a palace decorated with golds and his children are on earth starving and dying of cancer

Can you go tell that story to primary school kids

Some of these threads are opened by Muslims who try to snitch on Christians. They are not only operating physically, but also using the internet. Beware

Koran 2:191 "Slay the unbelievers whenever you find them."
Koran 3:28 "Muslims must not take the infidels as friends."
Koran 3:85 "Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable."
Koran 5:33 "Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam".
Koran 8:12 "Terrorize and behead those that believe in scriptures other than the Koran."
Koran 8:60 "Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels."
Koran 8:65 "The unbelievers are stupid; urge all muslims to fight them."
Koran 9:5 "When opportunity arises kill the infidels wherever you find them."
Koran 9:30 "The Jews and Christians are perverts, fight them."
Koran 9:123 "Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood."
Koran 22:19 "Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skin and bellies".
Koran 47:4 "Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them.

Re: 3 Things That Can Kill Your Christian Faith by Nigeriadondie: 7:50am On Mar 26, 2017
Most if not nearly all churches are built around a man. At worse they have become family entities with the names & pictures of the man and his wife in the church buildings, adverts and their publications. The husband is the Daddy GO the wife is the Mummy GO. I guess the children wud be Pikin GO.
This is contrary to what Jesus said in Matthew 23:8. Jesus though the head treated his disciples as brothers and not as "his boys". Luke 22:26,27; John 13:3-16
After the death of Jesus we read from the Bible that christians were not under one man but group of anointed men. Acts 15:2,6 also Acts 16:4.
When a church is centered on a man it brings glory to such men and not to God which the apostles clearly shunned cos they were humble like Jesus who could wash the feets of apostles which is in sharp contrasts with the so called "men of god" who have become "god of men". 1 Corinthians 3:3-9; 1 Thessalonians 2:6-11; 2 Thessolonains 3:6-12.
Infact on many occasion Paul referred to them as fellow workers or brothers indicating equality among all christians.
When a church is under a man then the death of the man means the death of the church just like sole propietorship. Take a lesson from what Gamaliel said concerning this in Acts 5:34-40
The proliferation of churches is often borne out of greed, selfishiness and desire for fame. Jude 16; Phillipians 3:19
Also these churches established by men claiming to have "the calling" is responsible for sectarianism or many sects which is condemned by the bible as it divides christians who should have been united under a banner. Titus 3:10; Galatians 5:20; 2 Peter 2:1,2
From my deep observation Jehovah's Witnesses seems to fit that description. Look at their kingdom halls or their publications you dont see any attention given to a particular person. They have a president but funny enough the witnesses dont know him. His name is written in the awake and watchtower magazines but written in a very small corner. I learnt the witnesses have a governing body with the president as the administrative head and he goes like all other witnesses to preach

Re: 3 Things That Can Kill Your Christian Faith by KevMitnick: 7:57am On Mar 26, 2017
Only the third point is valid. Faith is believe, why should I submit to a man in whom I cannot believe? Submission is to be to God's word, you must be given to his word and be submitted to it and not to any man. It may sound rebellious but that is it, this is why Jesus didn't fall for the pharisees and the teachers of the law, he knew God's word and followed it and not a man's definition of the word.
It's messages like this that put weak or baby Christians in trouble, turning them to gullible slaves for older Christians who manipulate them for their personal gain all in the name of submitting. Be wise, learn. God help us.
