Ignorance is the primary reason why many continue in the religion they find themselves in. Another reason is fear — fear of going it alone in search of the truth — they would rather belong to a group and make excuses for the foolish ideas traded within these religious groups than venture out alone in their search for truth. That is why even with all the many antiChrist atrocities committed against God by the many Popes, GBs, Pastors, Mogs, Prophets, etc., the average Nigerian will still cling to the excuse that some of them somewhere is good, and so no reason for them to abandon ship. The same applies as far as other religions by the way.

Gods from other religion if one one them eventually becomes the real will not accept ignorance or fear

Should I take it that it is the truth ?

but why do you remain in your RELIGION

Many reasons chief among are the followings:

1. My Deen answered most of my queries/questions. The answers to my queries are .ore believable because it appeals to Logics and sound reasoning.

2. After studying other Faiths/Religion, my OWN Religion is the only ONE out of a thousand that at least recognizes such Faiths, offer explanations on why, when such beliefs gained tractions.

3. My Faith tells me not to just Belief, it appeals to my Soul's yearnings, hope, fears and ask me, would you not believe when in your own soul these are what is troubling you?

4. The Singular Teaching that I am responsible for my Actions and inactions in this world also is a contributing factor. My Righeuosuness and otherwise is mine alone. No wholesale condemnation or Tribal pass before God Almighty.

I c an go on and on...

we have had about many religion s in the world today and each claiming to be the original religion from a supreme God somewher. would you claim not to have. had about them

I wasn't born into the faith, though i don't have interest in religion because as i grew older i discovered many are just gullibly and blindly following the religious title chiefs in various religions.
So it took me time about 22 years to be fully convinced that there is just one true religion.

When talking about religion it has to do with worship of God and thousands of religions are talking about their different Gods this made me start thinking about the qualities one need to find so as to be fully convinced that i have found the true God.

I later met a group called Jehovah's Witnesses and their presentation makes perfect sense as regards the qualities of the true God and how the worshipers of the true God should conduct themselves, no other religion come close to what i found with Jehovah's Witnesses.

From then i dedicated my life to become one of them till today!

God

God

So what use are any of religions?

to meet the standard of any one there is protocol that must be followed : to meet the standard of God there must system to be follow and that is religion

Kobojunkie:

we can only answer if you tell us which God.

OJODEL10:

So, your particular God requires that you follow/submit to other men in order to meet his standard --- cause that is basically what religion says you should do? .

You pick the one you are familiar with and tell me which came first..

my religion tells me to have personal relationship with him

OJODEL10:
■ my religion tells me to have personal relationship with him

1. How can your relationship be considered "personal" when you insist that you are mandated by your God to submit/follow other humans such as yourself in order to meet his standard?

that's the reason for the question
do you remain because of what people. say
or personal conviction about his existence

OJODEL10:
■ that's the reason for the question. do you remain because of what people. say or personal conviction about his existence

Ignorance and fear are two major factors that keep people entangled in situations they know makes no sense for them to continue with. You claim your religion tells you that in order to have a personal relationship with your God you must stay following/submitted to other men(sinners) such as yourself ---- a blatant contradiction,by the way--- , so it is up to you to decide if a contradiction suits the idea of God you wish for or not.

The New Testament you are basing your life is gotten from?

It's sweet here. I get to socialize for free, I don't even have to obey everything or anything.
