Agnostic Christians are the ones making world worth living not spiritual Christians. Agnostic Christians are the type that believes there is a God, he has a son called Jesus and the holy book is Bible. They believe that God is to be worshipped but they do not totally follow the Bible principles, unlike the spiritual ones that aims at living everyday of their life based on Bible principles. These sets go to church everytime, fill their selves with word of God and pray to be more spiritual and make heaven at the end. Some Christians believe that religion is the least of Nigeria problem as regarding the present situation we are in. But I will like to state under this various headings that religious/spiritual Christians makes little or no effort to make this place a lovely one. Pls note that Christians are christ-like people according to the Bible, so I'd be talking in regards to that. SPORT Sport in Nigeria aside from government support have not really been encouraged in churches which serves as the center of life of Christians. No matter the stance of a person in regards to making sport a profession, it is likely that he gets discouraged by brethren and this urge get killed. The only category of Christians involved in sport are clearly the agnostic ones, and nobody can change my mind about that. This is Nigeria where religion has overtaken common sense. Pastors are more interested in the youth preaching up and down Living spiritual life, giving them the dream to become a pastor. Swimmers, long jumpers, athletes, and a host of other sports are made reality by people that care less about the will of God. They are people that recognised their passion, dream, vision and go for it regardless of whatever. In true sense of it how many true Christians can allow their sons or daughters or wives to wear a pants and bra to run an earthly or worldly race for a country? Have they finished running the heavenly race? Lol. Some of the women involved in sport are married and doing well. Do we honestly think that the pastor of MFM would endorse a female in his congregation to wear a swimsuit cos of worldly swim? Kudos to all those representing Nigeria in sport. ENTERTAINMENT To be candid, how many true Christians are actively involved in entertainment? Does it look like envagelism ni. The dancers, the musicians, DJ's, world class fashion designers, book writers and so on are people that have cleared religion off their head. I remembered one day when a Michael Jackson's song suddenly played on a phone beside this brother of God, he quickly paused the song and rebuked the devil. To say I was surprised is the least, the didn't bother to listen to the lyrics at all. HEAL THE WORLD is a song a Christian should have. This is what indoctrination have done to the youth that can make here better. A sister believes Tiwa savage would go to hell for divorcing her husband, do we think this kind of girl could |

Be useful anywhere outside the spiritual or church realm? Christian youth have more bibles than scientific or discovery book, what is there to discover outside the Bible anyway? SOLDIER I want to categorize all the forces involved in protection of citizen here. It is quite obvious that some of the training and work of these people is clearly against some Bible principles. The soldiers are taught to fight, their heart are hardened against fellow men just to protect their own. Their work might not make sense here due to corruption. We see the kind of forces the developed countries have and how these forces have helped protect lives and tame the enemies. No true Christian can do this work, does it look like a spiritual fight for Christ? They are army of the lord if u ask me. HEALTH We have true Christian nurses and doctors if u ask me but how many true Christian are in the lab finding out about the cause and solutions of health problems? They are Christians that are bold enough to ask questions, people that believe that annoiting oil is not enough, that health problem is more physical rather than spiritual. Christians that have been on their quest in discovering the truth. People that still have their common sense intact. Gone are those days when deeper life believes that T. V would corrupt their members, now they have a channel on DSTV. And we wonder why Nigeria and Africa is backward, isn't it obvious that religion is main part of it? When our counterparts are Celebrating technological innovations and breakthrough we are here celebrating over couple that for married as a virgin. How will that help Nigeria? Students lost their lives this year in d course of envagelism, how many times have we heard that white students lost their lives while doing the same? While the whites use their mountains for exploration and more better thing, we have turned ours to prayer Centres, we have been clouded with the will of God we can't do things on our own anymore and u want this country to move forward. A preacher once said that d state of Nigeria could be a pleasure to God, our pain, suffering, happiness, sadness is his pleasure, but can he go to the developed country to say that? We keep consoling ourselves. IMO philosophy and logic should be thought through secondary school to prevent our young ones from being deprived of their common sense. True Christians live their lives only to make heaven, earthly things don't concern them. Happy Sunday. |

Hypocrisy to me is when the Christian soldiers we have here goes to give God thanks to God for sparing their lives in an accident when they could have easily died and go to heaven forever |

winner01:U seem to be the most jobless Christian on this forum. Do u sleep at all? Why are you obsessed with atheist? U spend useful time googling just to find point to tackle with them. Even among the Christian is their unity? Why not face that first before coming here to act like jagaban fellowship with your fellow Christians and ask why a Catholic wouldn't want to worship in a celestial church, or why JW wouldn't enter a church, why deeper life believes that trouser is a sin for women but otherwise for Christ embassy. Stop forcing your religion down people's throats. Jesus said you should preach gospel not attack atheist or make other theist feel bad about their religion. |

That's a nice nomenclature. Agnostic Christian: a person whose rational thinking is not clouded by religiosity. ~menxer |

The phrase "Agnostic Christian" is an oxymoron. One who claims to be Christian and Agnostic, is quite confused. People just come up with words and phrases that aren't compatible. |

classicB:Na wa oo ,Upon the little time i spend in the religion section .U don reach other sections ![]() Shey "." na ds small dot cause this whole story ![]() classicB:I sleep very well oo, I nor dey play with my sleep. classicB:Good question. Na jejely I enter religion section to share my belief in God with other people oo. I con see say the place dey filled with religion haters, disbelievers, anti theists, atheists, etc putting up misconceptions and dehumanizing religious peeps and their beliefs. At first I ignored them but then I noticed something interesting. THEY NEVER SPEAK ABOUT ATHEISM. I also noticed its no use putting up christian threads cos they will storm it, post offensive memes and mock christians into submission without caution from the mods. Wow, then I saw the heavily guarded islamic section too. It could only mean this is not a pro-christian section, and then atheists talking about christianity most times, I just feel its cool to return the favour at least by talking about atheism for them. ![]() classicB:madam did you say this to the atheists who opened threads to mock christianity today? classicB:Na so shaa, I feel the disunity too. But dont you think atheists will take such threads down with mockery and insults if I do. Plus, I tackle this issues on some other social media platform. I hope you would ask an atheist what they are doing on a section where religious individuals are meant to share their beliefs in God sometime soon, jus for fairness sake. ![]() classicB:Its a more complicated problem than I can handle. E pass me ![]() classicB:Atheists force their "Lack of belief" down our throats here all the time. They open threads to degrade pastors, mock christians and christianity, mock their Bibles etc. The usual defence is that they are free to mock any ideology but why isn't it cool if I do the same? I'm not forcing my religion down anybody's throat, Christ didnt do that, I believe in peace. But I also believe I can talk about atheism if the only thing they can do is talk about christians and christianity. classicB:Chai! I hope you'll tell atheists not to stop attacking Theists and stop making theists feel bad about their religion. The small "." space wey I rent for your thread, I'm happly leasing it to whoever wants it, so no vex. I wan put mouth for your thread before but E be like say my enemies don dey plenty small small. No vex ooo ![]() |
