I don't understand how people can believe in God and I have one simple reason over all my other reasons why he doesn't exist. People say God's love is unconditional, he even killed his son (who was really himself) for us to all be forgiven? But isn't that in itself a horrendous and horrible act? If God loved us so much, why does he punish us rather than lead us down the right road? Why do hundreds of people die everyday by things they cant even control like starvation, thirst, slavery abuse and everything else on the list? Why are little children who haven't even had a chance to be born into the world and discover God born into poverty or genocide? Like what the hell? You love us so much yet you decide since Eve ate a damn fruit, we all suffer.

Prayer in Aramaic means Trap
The word, prayer or the verb, to pray, in the Aramaic tongue which Jesus taught with, means to "trap the presence of God, trap all the Goodness of God there is etc"
and as a matter of fact, the Lord's Prayer, actually is a mini gospel as everything Jesus taught is in that prayer

Christianity is a fraud, and a big one at that, and Christianity is becoming a problem to mankind, because most corrupt practices in this world comes from christians majorly, Pastor Oyedepo, pastor Chris, pastor Ayo, pastor Kumuyi, and some other ones I will release their names later should be investigated properly, I am a member of the APC and I will send a letter to my party so that in order for us to rid this country of Corruption we should send the above mentioned men to prison to serve, with hard labor, this year many pastors will go to jail mark my words if you are a pastor and you are reading this, know that your ministry end has come. You people steal and deceive people in the name of God, you have scattered families, destroyed homes, and caused hatred amongs brothers and sisters and tribes, you people will go to jail first on this earth before God will give you his own punishment, Thank God the President elect is a strict man, and he wants to fight corruption and if after I and my team have submitted all the information we have about the above mentioned pastors that will send them to jail, and Gen. Buhari does not commence investigations that will send them to jail, then I will know that my Party the APC is not serious about fighting corruption, if buhari really wants to give corruption a bloody nose he should send these fake pastors to the federal high courts, and from there to the jails. Christianity is a fraud and it should be stopped. My atheist friends join me in supporting this thread. Thank you, I am tired of living the Christian Fraud.

This is one argument the world uses to get Christians to shut up, to make Christians ashamed of standing for what is right. "Judge not!" they all shout, forgetting that God calls us to try (judge) all spirits.

“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother." Matt 18:15


It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that is not found even among pagans; for a man is living with his father’s wife. And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you. For though absent in body I am present in spirit, and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. Cor 5:1

Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any sin, you who are spiritual should recall him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. (Gal 6:1-2)

And for those who want to accuse Paul,

My brethren, if any one among you wanders from the truth and some one brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins (James 5:19)

God is a God of mercy. But don't forget He is also a God of judgement, a God of absolutes, who doesn't accept political correctness as an excuse. Love the sinner, but point out and condemn the sin and lead the sinner to repentance and forgiveness.

Judge in the same measure you sould be judged. Judge in righteousness

malvisguy212:
Luke 10:29-37 (emphasis added by
me)

…so he asked Jesus, “And who is my
neighbor?” 30 In reply Jesus said: “A GAY man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away,
leaving him half dead. 31 A CHRISTIAN priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a (BORN AGAIN BELIEVER) Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But an ATHEIST, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the GAY man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after
him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’ 36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
37 The expert in the law replied, “The
one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”


I think we have missed our opportunity
to love our neighbors. And I believe that
atheists namely have taken the place
where Christians should have been in
the first place.
May be some of us doesent hate gay.Sure. But do you love them as much as you love yourself? You say I do not hate them but you do not help them either. The same way you may help a fellow in your church who has a habit of lying.

Being Gay is sinful,YES.Well, newsflash! so is lying, cheating, cursing, arrogance, drinking, wrathful, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, envy, murder, deceit,
malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things,
disobedient to parents, being without natural affection,implacable, unmerciful.

I think some Christians have become too much holy to realize their error. When the gay community was bashed or persecuted they stood on the side rails and watched in silence. They could have helped but they didn’t because being Gay was unacceptable to them. They fulfill the part of the priest in the above parable.

And some of the Christians who really
felt like they should have helped but
didn’t are equally wrong because they
mistook grace as legalism in the dogmatic form. They are the Levis’ – the chosen people of God, the born again believers, who looked on the poor gay but then turned their heads and walked on.

And finally the atheist stood up and got
the gay person some help. Well, I
certainly applaud them on this.

Bottom line. Gays are there, if we do not help them, someone will but we would be directly opposing the spirit of love and grace if we didn’t. Regardless of whether you believe homosexuality is a sin or not, remember this, if it is a sin, it is no greater than any other sin, it is certainly not the UNPARDONABLE sin.

Matthew 26:36-40
36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment…?” 37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your (GAY) neighbor as yourself.’
40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
Happy Sunday.

DeCleff:
Thats O. O. Obu teachings

DeCleff:
And what do u mean by that? U agreed that satan is powerful and rules over ur life? Good for u. As for me he has no power and cant rule over me. Is it God's fault that some people are ordering satan like a servant, kicking his dirty ass like a football because they believed and accepted that Christ has set them free and defeat satan on their behalf. While others are complaining and suffering due to the 419 satan is playing on them because they refused repent and forsake the sinful/evil ways or refused to accept the victory of Christ for them over satan.

Its ur choice to either order satan around like ur houseboy or to let satan reign over u with his harsh koboko

DeCleff:
Yes Our Lord Jesus Christ Is the way to life and God. Thats the teaching of O. O. Obu

DeCleff:
As long as planet is concern anyone who came is expected to grow in age and size. Adam lived 930 years b4 he passed on. Our Lord Jesus Christ was born as a child, He grew up to the age of 30 b4 He started His ministry which ended 3 and half years later.

Now Leader O. O. Obu has done His own part and handed over to His Son even though He still manifest Himself both physical n spiritual. His Son has taken over rulership and will rule forever

flexybobo:
you are right!
But it is really not everybody who go to church that are christians.
if an armed robber dresses to church on Sunday do you still consider him a Christian?

flexybobo:
But it is still in the new testament?

Proximo73:
please tell him o,
i do not know if nigerians do not see certain things in the bible?
if they do, they will simply stop going to church,stop running after pastors and face their personal lives.
Nigerians are too religious

Proximo73:
what Scripture did you read that Christ says he is coming, you still do not realize that, that time Jesus says he is coming has out dated.

You know, though we were redeemed on the cross it do not end their, our final redemption is when Jesus will come on the last day.
Revelation 22:7 Jesus says Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
So, Jesus is coming

flexybobo:
