Faith cannot be forced
Righteousness cannot be regulated
Love for God cannot be legislated

Those buildings you called church buildings, don't exist in the spiritual realm. So I have no affiliation with pastors.

I am also writing something called 'my encounter with Zeus' can I mention you?

mention me

You neighbour is doing you a great service. It is better for you follow her to church and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour. You are complaining of bad people in the church and don't you think your going to church with your good characters can impact positively from the church? Follow this lady to the church, please.

what are you waiting for?

sreamsense:
Cool down to read Mattheu 24/Mark 13, you are listening to the spirit of deceit at this end-time. Don't mention me anywhere, I have offered my own advice to you. Beware and be watchfully, because love of many people shall be waxed cold(through suggestion of devils and lies). Only those that stand to the end shall be saved.

reeks of hate

Lostchild:
Take a look at the white men. They are not that religious like we Nigerians. They don't practice spirituality like the average African black man. But their ways of virtue and disciplinary lifestyle is more purer and closer to God than that of the black men

An atheist's ways of virtue and disciplinary lifestyle brings him closer to God? The White men cannot practice spirituality like the African Black man because spirituality is not in his history ... his DNA. It makes no sense comparing the White man's spirituality with that of a Black... Indian ... or other indigenous peoples. He cannot be closer to God than any other people on earth.... any spirituality is negative ... the devil worshippers.
On your stand ... to not be a part of Christiandom ... I hear you.... you have made your point very clear... to me. Now others have taken up where neighbour left off .... trying to force you to church. They should recommend one that you should attend where lifting one's spirit closer to God is the focus and not lifting money out of one's pocket. Why gather with a bunch of hypocrites?... is it better than worshipping by one self?
Back to the neighbour's.... she visits you and you visit her....
just curious.... she is visiting you and it begins to rain cats and dogs... nonend in sight.... yard rapidly flooding... her apartment soaked .... electric wires down... still live.... cold wind dropping temperature inside ....you in your one room one bed .... what will you do?

Inconsistent

God bless her and God bless you too.. God sent an angel to you.. You're indeed a lucky soul. Accept the Lord as your personal Lord and Savior.. I can assure you, that you will never regret it,if you serve HIM with your whole heart.. Gloraay!

Sorry if I may ask does it mean is only Christians that will go to heaven,but I tell you an average Muslim man is far better than our so called men of God 100 times.Salvation is a personal race and how we will get the medal � we don't know,be guided by your conscience

I remember seeing one thread here on nairaland of a boy who complain of him having financial depression. He said he had no food, no money, no light, no television to comfort him.

I was shocked when I saw some here asking him, have you given your life to Christ?

Some even comment, have you accept Jesus as your Lord and savior?

I was like, wtf is wrong with these funny people? A person is depressed and you are asking him to accept Jesus in hunger?

My Dad would always say, a hungry man doesn't listen to the word of God.

She is one of the rare kind of women I have seen in my life. Very peaceful and meek in nature. She a person that doesn't like trouble at all.

She has told others that, she likes me a lot. Me too like her in return because of her calm and gentle nature.

She is my friend.

I once had a girlfriend like that. In fact, I broke up with her because she's too good. She's still single and lives in Jigawa state. There are still good people. Very good people

Lostchild:
I understand your point. I understand her too. But I am tired of Nigeria and the Nigeria people as well.

Don't you see I have hated everything Nigeria? The Evil in this land is too much for me to bare.

No system made by men is and can be perfect.
No church is perfect. Stop looking for perfection from men.
For your own sake... Embrace God before its gets late....

Jesus Cares...

You for kuku accept God in peace na. Abi you wan die without Knowing God and destination after death ?? You lucky self, better be wise and accept Christ now. Some died without Christ, some die untop kpekus self. Na dem know wetting den explain give God. Las las ALL MEN WILL HAVE DESTINATION WHETHER YOU CHOOSE CONSCIOUSLY OR IGNORE IT.

Did you see me mentioning Muslim in my sermon?And note... Not all that calls themselves men of God truly are,some are false prophets. They are there to make you think that the true men of God are evil.. Comparing men of God with Muslims.. Did you see the case of Deborah, the Christian girl that was killed in the north? The Muslim supported the killing, but a man of God will never do that, because God wants you to love everyone around you,and not to kill them.. You gerrit? Never compare both,because even your conscience won't allow you kill,if your conscience is working actually.. You're blessed my nigga. Receive Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, and be saved from killing people, and causing unrest everywhere ..

I have a neighbor, a very nice woman who love the word of God. She is very peaceful, humble and meek in nature. She get super excited each time she sees me and often brought gift to me. I know why she get excited which is very Godly and good.

Day 1 The first time she saw and met me in person, she was very much afraid of me and wonder where I came from. She knew I am not from the land. When I tried to talk to her, she instantly refused and reject me not to talk to her. She was very fearful. She is a woman that avoid trouble and hardly trust people.

Day 7 I brought some fruits to her. She took them from me but I found out she later threw them away. I knew she was afraid to eat from the unknown stranger.

Day 9 She apologize over her first snubby reaction about the first day when I tried to talk to her. I accepted her apology.

Day 11 She brought to me some fruit too. I accepted them and ate them lmmediately I had the chance.

Week 2 She has asked me. Did you go to church today?

I replied her, no.

Why, she asked?

Me told her, I don't go to church. I know what to do and I know where I belong. She became afraid of me more which I understood.

When I scan her person, I saw she was harmless and good woman. She was a person of peace and harmony. I then start treating her with agape love as natural to me.

I knew in my heart, she will instantly submit to love. For love seek not the upper hand, but the lowest place of service.

In time being, she began to observe my
speech, behavior and way of life. She saw I was an immaterial person. She became more confortable with me and told me she is happy I move here to join her.

One Day She asked me, why don't you wanna go to church?

I told her, everyone has their God, and my personal relationship is between me and my own God.

She agreed, but insist I should forsake not the gathering of thy brethren.

I quote the scripture (Isaiah 57:15) when God said. I am the high and Holy God, who live in a high and holy place, but I also live with those who are humble and contrite in spirit, so that I can restore their confidence and hope.

She agreed and let me be.

The more she experience love from me, the more she submit and was full of happiness. She then told me I have the qualities the church need and asked me to join their church.

I told her, I can't join any Nigeria church for now.

Why, she asked?

You will also not understand my journey I blurted, but someday, you will.

Why can't you go to church to listen to the word of God, she re-asked me?

I told her, these Nigeria pastors are fake. They all selfish materialistic men. They don't understand the deeper ways of God, nor do they practice what they preach.

She was sadden over my words but nodded her head in affirmation, and told me, not all pastors are fake.

I told her, Ok. But I see them as business men who love to do what they enjoy doing.

Every Week I do tell her sob stories of what happened to others, and always end it with virtuous message. She likes and enjoy my short gist

She then told me, you know a lot ot things about spirituality, yet you don't go to church.

Months Later She fully submit to love and we became good friends. She start sharing some of her personal life info unto me, including...

She will always give me gift and money without me asking her. Paying my bills, self including food and wanting me to feel comfortable in her house. All these are the consequences of my actions. I, myself can never reject the consequences of love. She is a person that is humble, so seeing her own kind always filled her with excitement.

She believes I have the character which God need. She tried to heavily pet me to be going to church.

I told her, God has remove me from Christiandom. I can never go back to my vormit. She was like, what Christiandom?

I lauuuugh and told her, you will not understand.

Everytime we see, she will always gives me a Godly smiles. She said, since I move here, she has never seen me go to church. I always stay at home on sundays. She wants me to embrace and accept God by going to church.

She said if I start going to church, things will turn around for me and financial breakthrough will come.

I sternly take a look at my good friend and smiled.

I have seen more wickedness in this country than you can now imagine. She told me I should not look at the wickedness of men. I should accept Jesus and be going to church.

I told her, I don't belong to Christiandom. But until this so called Nigeria pastors start preaching love and start practicing that same love they preach, I will not listen or see them as men of God.

THE MESSAGE

I recently walk up to her. I asked her, do you know that there are more church in Nigeria than anywhere in the world?

Yes, she nodded.

Nigerians have more religious centers and practice more Christian spirituality than anywhere in the world. They go to church always. They pray a lot. They sow seed and pay tithe to pastors always and believe in God more than the white men. But their ways and daily life is more closer to that of the devil than of God.

Take a look at the white men. They are not that religious like we Nigerians. They don't practice spirituality like the average African black man. But their ways of virtue and disciplinary lifestyle is more purer and closer to God than that of the black men

The scriptures (Mathew 5:8] clearly says; Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

Jesus is the answer to all problems. That's because when you have Christ, you have peace. And the body of Christ in this world, that is the Church can also help him out in his situation.

Yeah it's funny but the great irony is that truly knowing Jesus takes away depression. Not just knowing him but abiding and fellowshiping with Jesus takes away depression and any form of fear.

Hogwash. You ended up castigating Christianity. Probably you are not even a Christian.

But in your previous comment,you said Muslims were 100x better than men of God? Abi no be you write am? You're saying now that muslem have fanatics,because of the points I raised.. But some of your imams and top Muslim clerics supported the killing.. I don't want to continue with this argument, if not I would have showed you some writeup in the Koran ,I hope my spelling is correct though..

I agree with you on the kind of Pastors we have in Nigeria who don't practice what they preach. And they hardly walk in love.

But you still need to be saved.

She didn't know how to present the gospel. The gospel is not about going to church or joining a church. It's about Jesus who came to die for you.

You must receive him into your life as Lord and Saviour. This will give you a new life. When you believe in Jesus and confess him as your Lord and Saviour, your life changes on the inside.

Above all, your name is written in the book of life.

Those whose name are not written in the book of life will be thrown into the Lake of Fire on the final judgment day - Revelation 20:15.

Guy you ARE THERE for the gifts and money and perhaps sex if she eventually succumb to your antics CHANGE YOUR WAYS BRO.

She is my friend.

You have the best neighbor anyone could wish to have. Pls give it a second thought she has demonstrated what a genuine Christian character to you and you've read Christ in her;Nathaniel said can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip responded COME AND see. 1. Accept Jesus 2. Follow her 3. If you are not satisfied with Nigeria pastors don't That should not stop you from following Jesus and find another gathering of the brethren.
We shall all stand before one day and give account of ourselves, Nigeria pastor hindered me from doing the right thing will not enough as an excuse. Pls come to Jesus thank you

Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. 2chor.5:11 .

I believe in God and I am committed to his church.
It's a personal thing and it works for me perfectly. Please, consider listening to that woman. Try to go and most importantly, have a relationship with Jesus. He is real.
