Early Church Teachings Saved A Lot Of Lives by youngEmelex(op): 5:16am On Oct 19, 2025
I will actually admit that the teachings I received while growing up in the church saved my life and I know thousands of others will also confess to this. While growing up in the church, we were taught to abstain from all forms of sexual immortality, alcoholism, smoking and other vices. The only reason they gave us was that God will burn sinners in hell. As I advanced in age, I then realized the health consequences and dangers of these practices. I met children who were orphaned because their parents died of HIV/AIDS. I met young people battling untreatable STDs with their lives almost ruined. I saw people die from lung cancer as a result of dangerous smoking habits. Men battling with alcohol addictions to the extent that they can't provide for their families. I didn't know that those vices were we warned of will eventually destroy lives here on the earth, I was only afraid of hell but now I can tell you that I live healthy, happy and fulfilled

I also don't think you're a man. Cos men don't do chochocho. How can you be deliberately targeting Christian threads fir derailing?
You're not making sense. Where did I lie?
