Use your brain. The colonial masters where working hand in hand with the missionaries. The colonial masters needed a an agreeable society so the missionaries came in to teach Christianity. Christianity teaches 'slaves obey your masters,' 'Your reward is in heaven,' etc. Christianity is a religion that makes the oppressed feel like their oppression is okay as long as their is some vague hope in 'heaven.' Christianity and Islam were very powerful tools in the subjugation of Africans and many indigenous people around the world.

You are right....

And you think this life is your own..
Have you ever in your life wonder about the mysteries of life..
★Why do one have to kill human to make money
★how do one invoke things spiritually
★how does witches and wizards exist
★what about mammie
★lot of them.
If all this happen and you're still thinking this life ends in physical you're a big joke to yourself.
Hell only exist in ur mind.
The world is governed by esoteric forces of the universe.

No, we would all not go to Hell. Instead, scripture says that those who die as unbelievers will perish in the grave. God's Judgement for all unbelievers... all who do not believe in Him.. is as follows...... From dust, you(mind, body, and soul) were made and to dust, you(mind, body, and soul) shall return.... Genesis 3 vs 19 - 22. undecided

For those unbelievers or those who never know about Jesus but live rightly will surely make heaven but for those wicked ones that didn't hear about the gospel will go to hell for there conscious and Right doing will be use to judge those people..

When the world was created with Adam and Eve bearing children and their children multiply the number greatly.

To avoid confusions about God Almighty and his worship Angels were sent to the Earth to teach men how to worship and live well on earth. Genesis chp 3 to the end.

There arose corruption between angels and men, please read it yourself.

The Almighty God has always been interested in getting people to know about Him and relate properly from time immemorial.

So European adventures in Africa nay religion is just a continuous improvement.

In the middle ages ie 11th century when Islamic jihad sent away Jewish people from the Palestinia father fransis of Assis in Italy encouraged Europe to send missionaries to the Bible lands as it was called then.

We are not the first to receive missionaries from Europe.

The father Fransis of Assis work led to rebirth of Christianity and Judaism of today otherwise Islamic jihad had extinguished Christianity from the world.

Christianity is not a cheap religion, it is a warrior religion. Ask people in the middle East, because they know better.

-{-------(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))
Interesting, Please note this world is not just about Christianity and Islam.. The two most populost counties are neither Christians or Islam... That means... You can live a functional life by taking control of your life without any religions beliefs.. Well advanced countries have laws that guide and shape human relation.... Your relationship with your God via your religion or spiritual awakening should be a personal and a private matter that makes you a better person..

Thank you, that was why I used the word paradise first because that’s what they keep promising people, there’s this illusion or should I call it deceit actually that , if you’re not in this particular religion, you’re likely to go to hell , I’m still waiting for my late grandfather who happens to be a Muslim and all his 5 kids are pastor and no single one of the grandkids is practicing Islam, I’m still waiting for him to appear in my dream one day to tell me I’m this is how it looks like when you die , This is Heaven, this is hell, only those who believe in this and that make it to Heaven and others go to hell , the funny thing is nobody has ever came back to tell us Shit , even Jesus hasn’t came back after 2000 years , we only hear He is coming soon and when he comes, This and this will happen according to what’s written in the scriptures , by the way I’m not atheist, I grew up a Muslim and Christian home I was supposed to become a pastor at some point but I let go , I read both the Quran and The Bible, I studied both well and graduated , I just get pissed when some people try to claim self-righteous and try to condemn others .
The problem with you is that you don't even know yourself, you just wake up, eat, shit, sleep and wait for the time of your death. If you don't really know yourself how can you know what bedevils you. Sorry.

Christianity is an adaptation of an African belief system. If the Colonials never came to Africa then we would've been much better off avoiding going to "hell" . Just look at "primitive" societies throughout Africa .... theirnway of life is wayyy more righteous than that of any Christian society... even the Vatican.

1. Whether you call it paradise or Heaven, the basic is still it all depends on which deity or belief one refers to, doesn't it? undecided

2. Waiting for the dead to enter your dreams to inform you... all i can think is they are dead, aren't they? Why have such expectations of the dead? undecided

3. Yes, according to Jesus Christ, His Heaven and Hell will not be open for the admission of souls until after He returns and judges those born-again... The Kingdom of God only belongs to those who are born-again. So, it is crucial to identify precisely whose Heaven/Hell one is referring to as each deity defines it's separately/differently. undecided

1) So where do the dead stay while waiting for the coming of Christ

2) Jesus Christ never came to preach Christianity to humanity rather he came to preach LOVE and LOVE is not just attributed to Christians alone

We did not say that theres no hell or there is no God and we did not say that the bible isnt true (thats blasphemy!)...we are simply saying the bible was used by colonists to subjugate minds....

Hell and heaven are real as contained in the bible but colonists subverted them to their own gain just the same way sow a seed pastors distort bible verses for personal gain....

Look at you grin grin

You believe in Christianity because you're born a Christian.

African would have been a better place without religion and the white folks that came to destroy our unity. We were better off. Go and do your research and read about your history very well so you won't be lost in life.

You can choose to ignore, it's your choice

The Introduction of Christianity in African predate the Colonial masters era.
If you read the Bible carefully you will see that the African's played a major role in the Christian Story.

Colonial Masters never brought Christianity, the missionaries did, both are not the same and their aims are not the same.
Re: If Colonial Masters Didn't Introduce Christianity Will We All Have Gone To Hell by Reference(m): 11:39am On Sep 18, 2022
My friend, it is not colonial masters that introduced Christianity but missionaries.
And if you read the history very well you will know two things, first of all they did not come at the same time.

The Great Colonization of Africa (sub-saharan Africa) started in 1884, the first Christian missionaries came to these parts in 1893 so they are not one and the same group.

Secondly, there were many historical reports that not only did they not operate in the same localities but they often worked in cross purposes and often clashed with the colonial authorities in the way their missions were run.

Thirdly and finally, not all missionaries were of British origin. As a matter of fact it is widely known that every continent where Christianity first landed, it was led by the Portuguese.

Colonialists were here under the orders of the Crown but not every missionary outreach was affiliated with the Church of England or even British for that matter. Read the history of the Soudan Interior Mission (SIM), the largest missionary outreach to Africa for better reference.

That's why I say most Christians/religion people are Christians because they were born by Christians not by choice,lol

Deuteronomy 21 vs 23

"the body must not remain hanging from the tree overnight. You must bury the body that same day, for anyone who is hung is cursed in the sight of God. In this way, you will prevent the defilement of the land the LORD your God is giving you as your special possession"

How was Jesus got killed?
If jesus got killed according to the above verses, then Christendom is a mirage.
