At 14 I refused going to church so I got locked out until they return home
Lol I can only imagine.

My parents won't even lock you out, you MUST go to church.

Even as an independent adult, I wanted to travel home to see them on a Sunday and my mum vehemently refused, citing it as a holy day and I rather come on Monday.

Just like monarchies and kingdoms are slowly facing out and becoming obsolete practices,so eventually will religion.One fact about this life is that time has effect on EVERYTHING,and nothing last forever.

From my lil understanding of Religion which by the way is not limited to just Christianity is thus. Spirituality acquired or seek is fraud, Spirituality comes to you by the way you behave and interact with nature. Most of the science me and you duel in todays world is brought to us be spirited Men and Women who work day and night to make the world a better place, not those who go shout brbbrbrbrbrbr on Sunday or what ever day they chose to
He didn't that he is still in same boat. Spirituality simply means understanding the rules of nature, understanding customs and traditions of any place u go n your own. Understanding yourself and u are on this earth.
One one of secretes popular saying is "man know thyself". Is a simple saying, but is not

The truth is these guys are becoming more innovative and scientific in their approach on life issues. They are more spiritual than their parents because spirituality just mean being authentic on issues, which they are.

Thank you. I wonder why people are so gullible.
People don't like to read. The more you read - the more you know, the more you know - the more you question, the more you question - the more you think critically. They prefer to outsource that thinking to those who they perceive as authority figures, to do it for them. Ergo swallow every bs hook, line and sinker.

🤣. Exactly what this thread just said 🤣🤣🤣

https://www.nairaland.com/8488927/old-deception-serpent#136314043
..It Started in The Garden — And It’s Still Whispering

The serpent didn’t offer rebellion — he offered enlightenment.
He didn’t tempt Eve with sin — he promised divinity.

It wasn’t a shout — it was a whisper.
Not a threat — but a rebrand of religion itself:

You can be more.
You can have hidden knowledge.
God is holding you back.
But if you awaken
… you’ll be like Him”

So keep your light, I love how my life and and living has been so far and I have enjoyed every second of it, unlike you people and your supposed light.🤣🤣🤣🤣

I took it to ChatGPT...see if it helps your search.
I appreciate your effort, d book was an essay but the topic has nothing to do with religion. It was in one of the chapters he talked about hope or something like that. D name is popular, i wonder why i could forget something like that.

It was in my old Nokia 3.1 bt the screen is bad and the phone is in a bad shape. I don't knw if it possible to extract files from a dead phone.

Anyways, thanks once again.

I am guessing you don't have children that are gen z or you yourself are not part of the gen z, of either is true then what a strange thing for you to assume
If I was gen z I won't be condemning them. And I seeing how things were getting badder and badder and how our parents were always saying that there generation was good so, I knew that it was only a matter of time that the prophecy would be fulfilled.

And so I teach and raise my kids in the 1980 way eg my kids both boys and girls already cleaned the compound, washed their clothes and my cars and cooked even from primary school. And I have taught and shown them how sex kils and destroys their lives by making them Caused using even their own mates and peers. And I they saw that my prediction happened. So I thankful to God that my plan to separate them from the many is working

I am sorry you have confused yourself, i have seen those things, they are distractions, soon everyone will know that Jesus is real.


The evidence will stare the whole world in its face. I do not have to prove anything. smiley smiley

You are likely to be in the world after the rapture, and then you will know that God is true, but you will have to lay down your life if you choose to follow Jesus, because the earth is about to be surprised and devastated. You either depend on the Antichrist to survive or you will choose Jesus, but it comes with suffering, I cannot even imagine, I cannot endure pains, talkless of Tribulation, Now is the time to accept Jesus, before its late and grim.

LoL
You have no idea how much research some of us have done.
You are obviously one of those who believe that Adam and Eve actually ate an apple.
You are obviously one of those who believe Mary Magdalene was just one of the followers of Jesus.
Some of us have read many of the books that were removed from the bible. Some of us have done research into the times before Genesis 1v1 and after the book of revelation.
You are obviously still on Genesis 1v1

Breaking news Adam was never the first man created. Adam was never the origin of man.
If I spend 2 hours with you, I will use your own Bible to convince you that Christ never came....

The Bible is the only book that has the record of the existence of a Jesus yet they were writers donkey years before Jesus came.
Nobody wrote anything about a man who raised the dead, turned water to wine, fed 5k people with 3 fishes and 5 loafs of bread, they is no historical record of such a man.

Have you notice that the Catholic church that brought you Christianity pays more attention to a Mary?
Walk into every catholic church and you will find the sculpture of Mary welcoming you, not Jesus.
Na the people wer bring Christianity be that....

See rest. I don't have the time

From my teen my mum and I became two opposite people due to her religious and general belief.We never agreed on anything. I was the quiet odd kid out of the lots that passed through her care.
Five years ago we finally buried our differences and died in my care this year. I'll do anything to see her one more time
Re: Why Gen Z Is Becoming Less Religious? by SeriouslySense(m): 1:32pm On Aug 03, 2025
I wont be surprised by the response of the Jew, because the bible already predicts the attitude of the Jews, even their problems, and even the attitude of the people of the world, how can be surprised. smiley smiley

Yet, they will call on Jesus at the end, who will save them from destruction, from the armies of the world, from being wiped out.

God has a special purpose for them, they were the keepers, of Gods convenant and his mysteries, which he has blessed the Church with, until the Church is gone. Then God turns his attention to Israel.

erico2k2:
You think?
did the bible tell you how the disciples of Jesus died?
DO you know who translated the bible and the business they where in?
have you ever sat with a practicing Jewish person and talked about their relationship with Christianity?

Lol, I don't agree with my parents on some religious beliefs as well, we quarrel on that a lot, I just feel everything in life doesn't revolve around spirituality.

1st misconception, Jews are not Christians.
2 Jewish religion is very much Older than Christianity but nobody missed any of its teaching in translation.so its words where the originals still
3, who do you think was the last prophet from God?

I am more Christian than you are young man.
The difference between me and you is that you practice religion while I am focus on spirituality.
If I ask you basic questions about Christianity now you will claim they are distractions simply because you can't answer them, the Catholics call it dogmatism. News flash some of us answers to those questions you call distractions simply because you lack answers?
Okay let me ask. Can you tell us why aside from Job and David the Bible never made mention of the Ice age which lasted for donkey years? Was God in hibernation?
Job and David only mention Ice in relationship to history, they never experienced the ice age, so of we say the Bible starts at Genesis and the only person that has memory of ice os Job yet you think Adam was the first man. Where did Job get the knowledge of ice age? Every religion on the earth thrives on the ignorance of men like you.

I can answer most of this question I have asked you but you lack the mental capacity to understand

Pastorchrisylva:
Because today Christianity is a big lie and a blasphemous Christianity..
They can see through the lies

God said do not worship idols and images..
You people put cross and fake Jesus pictures in churches..
It's a sacrilege and blasphemy...

Pastors that should be servants of God are now living like kings and Lord's...
Jesus Christ always spoke against rich people
Just imagine what pastors are saying on pulpits..
Today Christians are more wicked than jezebel and Satan himself...

They preach tithing , Jesus never collected tithe, disciples never collected tithe..
Tithing is giving only to Levites and Jesus Christ abolished that with his new priesthood..
Now u should give freely according to how you desire.

Lastly Jesus Christ and God's name is
Yahweh and yeshua,if you want to be a Christian..study your Bible well


Bonus..
Sabbath day is on Saturday..
First day is Sunday and last day is Saturday...
There's no point responding you bcoz you don't have the understanding of the Cross.
