Kay 17: I find most Christians prejudicial, they are unwilling to interact ppl outside their faith or even denomination.

......In your own opinion who exactly is this "CHRISTIAN"

PAGAN 9JA:
what is the difference between a blind person and a christian

is asking a question that is quite insultive a way of giving your opinion

More opinion please........atheist(who once claimed to be christians) what your own definition and qualities attached to a christian........so who is a christian

Ayomivic: exactly. But especially on matter of salvation.

Ayomivic:

Actually it may be very difficult to differenciate between conscience and Holy spirit.

According to dictionary, Conscience is person's sense of righ and wrong.

Conscience belongs to man. Every body can differenciate between right and wrong but we will notice that what is right to one person may be wrong to another person.Why is it like that ? Why can't our conscience be the same? I mean, why is it that what i see as right thing you don't see as such? Someone may not see what is wrong in Lesbianism, gay,stealing,lies ,fornication etc.Even though God says those things are wrong, yet they do it. And another person will says it's bad to practice lesbianism and all those stuff.

With the differences in our conscience one should recognize the existence of evil spirit because if the is not evil spirit we would all think as the same. I wouldn't say what you call good is bad or what you call bad is good.

The evil spirit intends to make someone do what your conscience sees as wrong things.This evil spirt from Satan is strong than our conscience and in other to resist and fight this spirit we need Holy Spirit from God.The holy spirit makes us to do what our conscience sees as right or good.

Know this, the Holy Spirit works towards God.The Evil Spirit works towards Satan. The conscience is in between of both Holy spirit and Evil Spirt. Both Evil Spirit and Holy Spirit Always wanted to gain person to their side right from infant and that make it difficut to differenciate between them and conscience.

For better understanding on this read Romans chapter 7 and 8.

How to recognize Holy Spirit

Holy Spirit would never side you on evil matter

It enlighten you on the way of God. Like when you are reading the scripture.It give you real uderstanding of what you are reading in a different way to your conscience.Let me put it in these way.Holy Spirit deliver messages from God to your heart in a special way. even if you are not reading the scripture. May be you are walking, or you are sitting down. If something is not good for you or God hate that thing it will tell you. If you are in wrong gathering it will tell you. With holy spirit you will know the fake pastor or man of God. If God wants you to do something it will tell you and keep disturbing you until you do that. and ,it will make that thing easy for you to do.

Holy spirit teach us holiness.The more holy you grow spiritually, the more you feel the present of Holy Spirit. If you are full with Holy Spirit and you can add faith with it,you will surely perform miracles. Some Christians have Holy Spirit but they can perform miracle because of fear and because they doubt the spirit of trueth to be their conscience.

I must confess, when i saw this quetion you posted. I didn't know what to write.When i aske my wife to differenciate between conscience and Holy Spirit. what she says is not what to write home about.When she had gabbled the answer she quicly threw back the question to me. But i replied her that '' i don't know the answer now but when am ready to write what i will write would come''

so wot ur saying in summary is dat d Holy Spirit awakens the conscience to d positive(good) tins of life

Emmy9ite: What's happening guys. My battery has not been my good friend this past days. Still on the certificate ish. It was good to see my man Dibango. Maybe we will have a get together for all Nairaland Tuskites soon. What do you guys think?

My spoon and cup is ever ready.......lols

Well Think you're also right about atheist thinking they were "christians" before converting......

Chai!!! See Uniuyo see stress...........

Ayomivic:

Bro, let me start by saying you are a little bit faster than me.I wanted to post the same question on sunday but i decided to ask about who is man of God that day and postponed this to following day but unfurtunately when i checked the topics yestarday i found it. God is good.

This question is very good. With discussions with people on this forum or section i discover that many people does not really understand what christian is all about especialy some called atheists who claimed they were one time christian before converted to atheist.
Back to the op question 'What is Christian' -According to me, Christian is a man of peace and love who believe in existence of one true God and believed in Jesus Christ as savior of the world,someone who was led by Holy Spirit.

I have my proof for the above definition.The Bible told us In the book of Acts 26: that disciples were called Christian in Antioch because of qualities they see in them.Verse 23 of the same chapter 11 told us about the qualities possessed by Barnabas whom the disciples sent to Tarsus to find Saul and when he found him both of them went to Antioch . Let read his qualities.

"Who, (Barnabas) when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad and exhorted them all ( the believer in Antioch ) that with purpose of heart they would cleave into the Lord for he (Barnabas) was a GOOD MAN and FULL OF HOLY GOHST and of FAITH, and much people was added into the Lord (Act 23:11)

The three qualities written in capital letter is what makes someone a Christian.Let me add it here, that all atheists who converted from Christianity to atheism have never be a Christian because they can only possesed one of the three qualities when they are Christian which is GOOD MAN. But they lack the other two which are HOLY SPIRIT and FAITH.

Jesus Christ was a man of peace and love,a man full of holy spirit and faith. Just pick any one of disciples and tell me if they didn't possessed these qualities? You see.

Let me give one verse of bible for each qualitie as another evidence to show that these three qualities is only ticket to heaven

1. Follow peace with all men and holiness,without which no man shall see the Lord.

2 . For as many as are led by the Spirit of God,they are the sons of God. Roman 8:14 ( Holy Gost)

3. ..But that now man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for the just shall live by faith.Galatians 3 : 11 (Faith)


The true is that, in the world today, there are some people who called themself Christian whereas they are not Christian. This type of Christian may be the person who was born into Christianity. Bein born into christianity does not make you a Christian. There some certaine question you need to ask yourself and work towards.

1 The Bible says that faith comes by hearing and rearing by the words of God" (Romans 10:17) after you have been listen to the worlds of God you need to called the holy spirit to be your guidance.

2 Don't base your christianity on what they told you alone. Pick your Bible and read. Then, you will see the manifestation of Holy Spirit and mind you don't read in verses that is not good idea for good christian .For the start try to read from Genesis to revelation chapter by chapter. You will see the hand of Holy Spirit.

3. After all these, then examine yourself if you can be called Christian. You can do this by given your self these little test (1) do i follow what i read in Bible or does my life be like that of Christ? (2) Do i see the present of holy spirit in my life (3) How many question about my religion can i provide geneue answer to.

4. If you pass the above test, then, re-think of your religion by relating it with other religion to see if there is another religion that is superior to the one you are into. The bible say "we should seek for the truth .If you see the one that superior to the one you hold on to then, grap it because it is the matter of life and death. Your mother,father,siblings, friend,wife, should not be an obstacle because they wouldn't speak for you on the day of judgement.And if what you are into is the genue one, hold unto it till the end comes rain or storm. May God help us

permit me here to differenciate between Christian and Born again Christian.I have explained up there what Christian is all about .

Born againg Christian on the other hand is a term use to verify from somebody who called himself Christian whether he knows what christian really mean or to know if someone is christian by mouth or faith. Remember the words was used in Bible by Jesus to explain to Necodemus if he knows the way of salvation.

tanx for ur explanation and contribution Ay buh ur contribution just generated anoda tricky but essential question:"How do you know when u've got the Holy Spirit working in u"cos sumtyms u mistake ur conscience as the Holy Spirt.(sorry for derailing a bit)

More talks(opinion) please.....

Just like what I said.......the question quite important but LESS put into consideration......not surprised @ all.......even the atheist(where dem dey).....

Wow........no post just views guess everyone is as disturbed as I am......smh.......lols

Yomieluv: So hungry one day,that I had to take a bike to a restaurant like 5 buildings away from my house.

Hunger no good ooo.

bamto: I was just wondering if someone always calls the shot in your house when it comes to holding the remote control and determining which channels to watch. It is certain that we have our diverse preferred channels. For the ladies, its mostly films and music, while the guys mostly opt for sports and politics. Then, you see some fathers, once they are home, listen to news from one channel to the other till they go to bed.
What do you have in your house: a dictatorial or democratic system of remote controlling?

The topic alone got me laughing so hard

Emmy9ite: Only tomorrow will tell. Lets just wait and see what happens.
