I have noticed an aberration under the sun. A lot of people serve God not because of whom he is but because of what they have been told. A good number of people who now regard themselves as Christians were either born into the religion or became devoted members because of the fear of hell fire and eternal damnation.

People don't serve God for whom He is but rather are afraid of the stories they were told by others. Oh, hell is a place pf torment, a place where the worms never die, a place where the thirst cannot be quenched, a place where all sinners will swim in the eternal lake of fire, yes according to the books, hell is a place you don't want to witness even for a day.

But wait a minute, are we after missing hell or following after Jesus because he is worth it, is our believe in Christ based on the fear of hell or his compassionate love.

To me, following after Jesus is not because I fear hell, it is because He has given me reasons beyond a reasonable doubt that he is Lord and God of all. Just like Apostle Paul, I can also boldly stand and say, I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. Even if at the tail end I discovered that Jesus, Hell and God never existed, I will still live a satisfied life because I have followed after the right path.

If at the end of it all, you discovered that Heaven, hell, Jesus and God were all fiction, will you regret ever following the path of righteousness?

Jesus loves you

Not ever, cos doing the right thing for the fear of the unknown has saved humanity of so much havocs combining all religions together. And for you religion is of choice, let others make theirs. Stop tanishing the image or mocking what others believe in. is taunting others part of what your own believe teaches

Never, Christianity is a way of perfect lifestyle which focuses on doing good.

The world can't not survive if lawlessness is allowed, same applied to the creator of the universe Himself.

If everything we've been told eventually turn out to be fiction, we won't even have the chance to regret, because we won't exist, we would be in oblivion...

Why person go sit down think say Hell or Heaven no de..... Is that person OK at all

What is "good", that one is being deprived of being a Christian?

a. I don't knw y we Christians have doubt with our religion,
b. Don't mislead people, it won't cost u anything if it all happened to b a fiction BUT( and that's a big BUT) it will cost u something if u die n discover there heaven and hell

I don't know about you but it won't change anything with me.... I believe in doing what is right and Just.... and Christianity preaches that (don't mind some so-called Christians who act hypocritically... it doesn't diminish the central and whole message of Christianity).

So no regrets for me. I am convinced and not in this race because of some scary "you will go to hell if you do bad" story......

I believe in Love, Justice, Empathy and Many more fantastic virtues.


But uhmmmm.... to some others I ask, "What if Hell, Heaven, Jesus, God and even Satan actually exists, Will you regret living a lawless life or life lived anyhow without guiding principles?"

Consider this a "return serve" in tennis....

Hell No.

I thought christianity was coined from the word- Christ. So how would one become a Christian when there is no Jesus Christ.
Op, I'm not seeing any sense in your post.

Anyway take note that; Xtianity was forced on us by our Slave/Colonial masters and we need more consciousness to freeing our minds....
#Ensure you pay your tithes this morning as my landlord has given my co-tenant a Pastor, a quit notice.

I feel religion was setup to tame humans... If not, wahala for dey oh... Dis present Wahala for dey learn work for wia dat one dey

Nobody has ever died and returned with EVIDENCE.

What evidence do you have that Jesus existed and it's not fiction? Religion is scam and a way to preserve law & order.

Why do billionaire pastors demand tithes not for widows, poor & invalid but for private jets and trips around the world to "spread the Gospel" ?

All we hear is "The World would soon end"... a very convenient scam with no fixed date

@obembet... ....Buhari is a 2 time President....your whole generation's achievement isnt even 1/10000 of that.



I am a Man of God...chilling in my private jet. Be careful when quoting me if not I would open the Gates of Hell

Okayam

Hmmmm, no comment

Nah you sabi oooo.

No, never! We can't take this

Lol op ur eye go soon clear

Pavore9:

you're being deprived 10% of your money

time you spent praying, driving to church, night vigils etc which should've been better spent being more productive

those times you spent feeling guilty for admiring a woman's backside

that relationship you refused to go into cuz the other party isn't a Christian

those partnership businesses you turned down just because the other party (parties) isn't Christian

they are real bro...there are bible verses for your clarification..

uzoclinton:

Yes!!!!

If you believe in God because you don't want to go to hell, that is pure religious belief not really believing in God. And you'll go to hell.

Unless you actually get spiritual enough to understand your religion is not the only right one, otherwise, every religious person is going to hell.

I do not regret things that once made me happy.

not at all..

This belief has brought peace to human kind. And to know later that they dont exist is of no use.

you could do what's even more right and just without Jesus, there's JAINISM which is far better than Christianity and doesn't involve any god

So no regrets for me. I am convinced and not in this race because of some scary "you will go to hell if you do bad" story......

I believe in Love, Justice, Empathy and Many more fantastic virtues.

Jainism then

But uhmmmm.... to some others I ask, "What if Hell, Heaven, Jesus, God and even Satan actually exists, Will you regret living a lawless life or life lived anyhow without guiding principles?"

the question you should ask yourself instead is what if Islam happens to be the true way? aren't you sinning against the true god by preaching Christianity

Consider this a "return serve" in tennis....

consider that too

Interesting one

Since not everything we know comes from our own personal experience, we can argue that all of us accept certain things on FAITH.

After all, I've never been to Mars, but thanks to what I've been told in science books and those pictures from NASA, I BELIEVE Mars exists, even though I've never been there.

That's why we are all believers, yes, even the "atheists" who have chosen to be disciples of Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens.

That's why I find your question intriguing.

I find it more logical to believe that the world has 2 key components; the seen and the unseen. Both equally important.

I find it more logical to believe that a Designer is behind the order we see in nature.

I find it more logical to believe that chaotic state of things on Earth is the work of beings working outside the set divine order of things.

(Just like crime doesn't negate the existence of the law; it's just proof of people's rebellion)

I'll always prefer to be on the side of clear logic.

which kind talk be this one?
They disrespect and make fun of Christianity and Jesus as they wish.
Talk about Islam or Mohammed like this and see the world burnt to ashes.
My Jesus is just so kind.
Op I derived more joy in Christianity than to regret at the end of my life, it's a thing that gives me joy. whenever my spirit is down, I only need to be in is present and my joy returns in abundance.
HAPPY SUNDAY
