I swear it's like Christmas time with you ebukas, remember thay God cared so much he sent a giant fish to swallow the dude. He should do the same with this guy.


Adam and eve didn't know right from wrong, the mistake was from God.

Are you a Nigerian ? My name is not Ebukas , its Ebuka .

You don't seem to understand what I mean . I'm saying that God appearing to him isn't a certainty he'll change his mind


How do you know this, cause if God appeared to me and we had a heart to heart, I would open a thread supporting his existence the next day.

Yeah , some of us have done that already . The usual vacuous response from the atheists is that the experience was just us hallucinating - do you see why it may not change anything for him ?

Are you trying to pull me into a debate about who a believer is?

Didn't I warn you of their intentions? To drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Don't go there with them, you can never beat them at that level they stoop to.

Why do I have this feeling that the OP's story happened years ago but had to be retold for obvious reasons .

Those saying that God only shows himself to true believers are dickheads. The op is on a ledge, what would it cost Yahweh to appear to him on night and just say:"do u believe now?". Bt no, He is too busy preping our furnace. Come to think of it, Yahweh would be the No1 draft pick for hell when u look at his actions in the old testament
Yahweh? That guy's so daft. Imagine how he let someone like me worship him as the Almighty God for a greater part of my life undecided Now that I've seen the truth, I am here to reveal it to all that YAHWEH IS SATAN. I am very happy right now for the Op, losing his belief in Yahweh as God Almighty, as opposed to Kingebukasblog, 4everGod and Mrpresident1 whose eyes are still covered with the darkness of the veil of yahweh(Satan). I pray they see the light soon, AMEN!

If God truly exist I can tell you he's not the God of the Bible or any other scriptures.
You are not far from the truth. God is not a killer, Yahweh is a killer. God is not an enforcer, Yahweh is one.

RCCG has many variations among their branches, from the most conservative to the most liberal. However, it is not a bad church, far from that, but I don't think there is unison in practice among their parishes. People's lives have been changed by these churches nontheless but Christianity is diverse, what shouldn't have been in the first place.
I mention denomination because most ex-christian atheists come out from pentecostalism and turn misotheists because it's the only form of Christianity they know and when even ministers of several years in ministry turn atheists it only indicates a fundamental problem, that is not obvious to the many that believe having faith is synonymous to remaining ignorant. But supernatural isn't stupid.
Emotionalism thrives in these circles, it's increasingly becoming a circus that not too many people can put up with. People fall in love with the ambience, the music, their pastors accent, their friends in church and sometimes remain, even after unbelief, because of their roles in the church but where is God in all of these? and they don't know what's in the Bible or it's isolated interpretation they knnow about.
One only needs to read about the history of Christianity to lose all form of emotionalism to become rational. One of two things happen after that: either one embraces atheism or they find their way back to worship God like the apostles and early Christians did.

Thanks
But on your statement regarding the role of the denomination, what do you have to say about mine?

How dare you accuse a Christian of thinking illogically undecided . That's an insult to him . Apologize now angry

The population of atheists in the world is picayune when compared to the population of the religious , so one or two people abjuring their belief in God does not really count .

by your failed logic...
The approx 1.3 billion catholics out of the 2.1 billion christians in the world are correct....
They are the true pathway to your heaven and jesus and warefa....so your little amount of protestant christians is not significant in cases of truth...
Correct?

"Compelled to share... " huh ?

Alright , what's your stand right now ? Because the reasons you provided are what a deist would say . Deists appreciate the existence of God through observance of Nature and not through religion . They reject whatever religion has to say about God .

And you clearly said that science sort of reveals the true wonder of God in nature . And Science studies nature . Your new found belief, so to say , is deism . You are seeing things more from an intellectual perspective .

Doesn't make any difference, what i wonder is why it is that you Christians make it a point of duty to put it to any former Christian that he/she was never a true believer? You guys still live in the dellusion that no true Christian can ever denounce or abandon the faith. I have had encounters with lots of you even offline, one was telling me that irrespective of the fact that I was a Christian for almost 30yrs, that I was never a true believer. He insisted that I was the 'chaff' that was to be separated from the 'wheat'.

It's your signature, both offline and online. Even when a pastor is found wanting, you say he is the prophesied end time false prophets.

Keep delluding yourselves.
