Teerach:@Teerach You hit the nail on the head. The fear factor of the phantom hell fire and the prevailing social consciousness are responsible for a lot of folks holding back from reading beyond the dogmatic teachings of the faiths they were born into. Right from the early 1980s, I've been reading about other faiths worldwide, (or rather I engaged in comparative religion) and it made me a better person who has tolerance for others because we all have different states of spiritual awareness or consciousness. There's a book entitled: "Suns ofGod" written by Acharya S. who was an American. She clearly gave instances of how the concepts of the Sun God worship became well-known in the ancient world and became the foundation of Christianity. Sundays are usually devoted to the worship of the sun. The day devoted to the worship of the sun = Sunday. The day devoted to the veneration of Saturnalia = Saturday. Thanks for the fantastic feedback here. All the best. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Those past life tales might be true afterall.. a lot of questions begging for answers. I think the soul journeys from infant stage to adult stage and then stops reincarnating to a final resting place or even cease to exist. The infant souls keep getting reincarnated, learning and growing through the lifetimes they live till they become mature/adult souls and then take the final bow. There is more to this life than what science or religion can explain. Even Yorubas believe in reincarnation with names like "Babatunde", "Iyabo" etc. 4 Likes |

ifex370: Not really.. For believers, soul travel and reincarnation aren't real but those in the dark world seem to be quite knowledgeable about the workings of life including souls. There is something called 'apeta' and another called 'apepa' in Yoruba language. The diabolic ones summon souls of their targets to their own locations and inflict harm or even kill them. The implication is that the victim will no longer be able to wake up in his physical body/form/flesh meaning the person has died in his/her sleep. It's said that witches sleep in funny positions, some say they hang legs on the wall or something for them to astral travel to their meeting venue. Some say they transform into animal forms and so on. But something is clear that it's not their physical body that travels. We've heard tales that occultic people summon the souls of their dead members to query the source of their death and perform other rituals to severe ties with the dead. So many scary things but the story of near death experiences are very real. Even Medical doctors have loads of experiences and stories about the metaphysical. You should talk to some doctors and see what they will tell you. 5 Likes |

camri: Actually there are instances in the holy books that suggests the soul concept and life after death.. examples are the transfiguration of Christ and the part where a sorceress invoked the spirit of one prophet, I think Samuel. Even Lazarus that Christ raised from the dead was because his soul came back into his body after about 4 days. There are some school of thoughts that believe the likes of John the Baptist reincarnated, even supporting it with bible passages. These things are there but the preachers don't want people snooping around and asking unanswered questions. 2 Likes |

I'm a Christian, born again and spirit filled but recently I am having a rethink about so many things about the form of Christianity we are taught in this part of the world. I find out that God is basically interested in that soul to soul connection between you and Him and not the church dramatization and etiquette. If you can develop your spirit and soul to get that connection with him you will understand a lot about His nature. And to be sincere with you, reincarnation is real though Christianity denies it which they call demonic possession it's real 4 Likes |

theForth: There isn't any new souls.... Just the recycled ones. That's why religious folks consider heaven and hell to be immeasurable (size). That's why so much importance is given to the soul/spirit of a man.... |
Re: You Don't Believe In Reincarnation? See This by Nobody: 8:59am On Aug 22, 2021 |
OSDD: Okay, but why are more recycled souls coming out now? Mind you, the human population thousands of years ago wasnt like it is now. |
Re: You Don't Believe In Reincarnation? See This by OSDD(m): 9:30am On Aug 22, 2021 |
theForth: That's why it is recycled, so the soul can start the start over again.. When a child is born, it either a new soul or a reincarnation of a previous one... Not every soul incarnate, you might want to ask,"then where do the souls that don't reincarnate go to? Or where is their final resting place? ".. Well, you can only get the answer to that question if decide to expand your knowledge of metaphysics and spiritualism (something I can't do for you) 1 Like |

Acidosis: @bold: The physical world is controlled by the spiritual. @Re-incarnation: I don't believe in it because it is not supported in Christianity: It is appointed for man to die once and after that, judgement. It is possible that people have similar path or assignments in life sha. E.g. Elijah & John the Baptist. 2 Likes |

reincarnation is real. it is the spirit & body that reincarnates - not the soul. they might reincarnate together into another(new born) person or either of them might reincarnate separately |
