Templee333: That's not an argument but setting matters straight with a liar who came to social media to tell millions of people that he can teach them all they need to know about a religion yet he knows nothing about the group! https://www.nairaland.com/7565553/ask-question-jehovahs-witnesses-here My question to you is: Why do you love lying just to malign God's people? 1 Like 2 Shares |

Chidolalar:Don't see it that way. Look at it like this: Believing in Jesus Christ is as simple as it can get a requirement to make heaven. I say simple because it is actually simple, all that is required is to say I believe in you, please forgive me and help me. Any other thing is secondary (John 3:16) . Living upright alone will never be enough, that is simply because no one can actually live upright no matter how hard they try, they will always miss it somewhere. God actually gave men the opportunity to save themselves through their works but they kept missing their way despite their best effort so He came up with a far simpler requirement which is: JUST BELIEVE. Believe in me and try your best and I will help you, that's all God requires of us. Comparing your actions with what others do and get, won't be of any help to you. Don't concern yourself with that, instead focus on what you can get. |

IAMBOSS1990: So Why will a so called loving and merciful God punish humans for sins they inherited and know nothing about from Adam and eve and also punish humans infinitely for a finite offence? And why will God cast d devil to earth to deceive, destroy and manipulate all kinds of evils to humans and still create an everlasting burning furnace for those humans? Religious belief claims his mercy endureth forever. So why didn't his mercy endureth forever when Adam and eve disobeyed God in d garden of Eden? If God is real and omniscient, den it means he has already known beforehand humans will burn in hell before even creating them Religious belief will quote something and still twist it to suit their religious belief. Religious belief is d worst thing to ever happen to mankind. Religious belief will make u become blind to reality. 2 Likes |

TenQ: A question for you... Did I create the bacteria knowing fully well that it will harm me? Did I create the bacteria and gave it its instinct, then turn around to kill it?? Why created what you will torment for doing what you created it for?? 3 Likes |

ReacherSaidNoth:According to Jesus Christ, Hellfire is rather a choice. The choice of reward is Heaven or Hellfire, and both are dependent on choices made by one in this life after choosing to become born-again — become citizens of the Kingdom of God. |

LeyeWrites:Sin has no physical effect defined. I think you are confusing yourself with ideas you have little or no real understanding of. |

Ola4lead:1. Where in scripture did you find this claim of yours that the devil is a sinner? Seems you have been mixing up ideas that you are no longer making sense! |

Onyiiobi7735:All this tales by moonlight alone... I wonder why you folks border with God at all when the script you play to seems to be full of Satan, Devils, and lucifers. |

Simeonjoe1:Genesis 3 vs 19 & Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 — those were the wages of Sin before Jesus Christ showed up on the scene with the Kingdom of God. |
Re: Is Hellfire Enough Deterrent For Sin? by Kobojunkie: 5:11pm On May 21, 2023 |
Ola4lead:Jesus Christ! As Jesus Christ tried to explain to you, while Heaven is a place for the Sons of God(sheep), so also Hellfire is a place for the Sons of the Devil(goats) in the Kingdom of God. |

The afterlife is simply an attempt or ploy by religions to exert social control and conformity. There is neither heaven/ hell nor God/Allah/Onyamen. |

Chidolalar: If you don't want God then why should He take you into His Land? Secondly, you do not know what upright means else you would know that it is undoable by anyone who does not want God. |
Re: Is Hellfire Enough Deterrent For Sin? by Dtruthspeaker: 6:43pm On May 21, 2023 |
Simeonjoe1: Then the question is what does death mean to God? Answer, Eternal Fire! |
Re: Is Hellfire Enough Deterrent For Sin? by Dtruthspeaker: 6:48pm On May 21, 2023 |
Simeonjoe1: You are just counting the punishment for one of you small actions eg one adultery. You measure it, what would the punishment be for 20 adulteries committed from your 20 years to 70 years? And that is for adultery alone, you have not counted the other associated sins which must be there eg stealing, pride, greed etc |

Kobojunkie:It does to me. It might not to you. That's fine. That's your experience. My experience is mine. |
Re: Is Hellfire Enough Deterrent For Sin? by Kobojunkie: 7:34pm On May 21, 2023 |
LeyeWrites:Sin merely means disobedience of God's Law, and so in order to adopt the idea of sin, you must also adopt God's Law/Contract. Outside of God's Law, the idea of sin is meaningless. Now, God's Law does not state that there are physical consequences of Sin, so stating that there are is of delusions. |
