Crusade too is wrong.
There is no cause that has killed people more than Christianity not even Islam.


You may be right about that, however the truth of the Cross is not negated by human failure.

It's not.

Giving to others is necessary.

Tithing is necessary, generosity is also necessary.

The two are not mutually exclusive so there was no need to mention that unless you were being disingenuous.

What cross?
In Islam Jesus didn't die, Judas took his place.

Go read the missing books in the Protestant Bible or get an Ethiopian Bible, they also said it.

Look up on the development of early Christianity.

Christ means the anointed one and it's not synonymous to Jesus.
It should be Jesus the Christ.

That's a broad subject, why don't you summarise what I need to know?

Anyway with the bolded statements I can see that you're not serious.

I hope that you can one day accept the healing light of Christ into your life, bye!

I need God’s grace and to find a bible believing church that can increase my faith. Throughout last year,I didn’t go to church. This year I don’t want things to remain the same.

If you live on the mainland, go to Fountain of Life Church, Ilupeju

It is easy to loose faith in God in Nigeria because of the enormity of the problems and challenges that we face and most of them remain unresolved even after our fasting and prayer.

Sometimes, it could be difficult to believe God in the midst of huge unemployment, unsafe road, occultic people and other man - made challenges that good governance should ordinarily solve without any recourse to God or spiritual intervention.

During my student's days in Scotland more than 10years ago, I had so much trust in God. I wasn't asking for many things as what I would ordinarily asked have been provided by the government.

It is very comforting and fulfilling being a good Christian and believing so much in God in a developed world than in Nigeria where the worries of life could make you to loose faith and compromise big time.

How many times have you prayed for your country and the leaders?

You keep saying that but I can't see anything sinister about either of them. The early church was not perfect, neither did it develop without being influenced by the surrounding culture.

That does not take away from the truth of the Resurrection of Christ.

Thank you Op.
I'm presently battling with faith lost.
I lost my most Endearing Dad last year ending to Mr. Death.
Even after I have prayed to God for almost a year and believing beyond every reasonable doubt that Dad will be fine, because He too put all his faith in God for his recovery which never happened.
When I lost him, my faith in God shifted .
I can't sing anymore, as I can't go a day without singing praises and worship.
I'm not much of a prayerful person but I love music more than life itself.
Music is what I use to communicate with God daily.
I just say my simple prayer and sing all day
But everything changes since I lost Dad, I lost all the joy and faith in God.
Each time Mum talks about God or church , I find myself sighing hurtfully.
I couldn't even make any plan for my 2020
I just enter the year with the hope that whatever comes my way I will take it.
I can't remember the last time I visited a church since middle of last year.
Daily, the hospital experience with my father and his last moment on earth keeps hunting my thoughts.
I'm becoming more impatient with life that I ended a relationship I was trying to build again last year after I gave up on love 3years ago.
I don't know what will become of me but I just live each day looking forward to each day what it brings my way.
When my father is laid to rest this year,
I will be enrolling for online counseling.
Maybe I can get my old self back and strengthened my faith once again.

Your conscience is already pricked by what I wrote grin. "Conscience is an open wound, only truth can heal it".......

As I have said earlier I stick to my word. I don't have anything against you. I'm open minded and I don't conclude with a narrow mind. Open your mind and there won't be any reason for this.

You don't get it! You don't get it.

What is the number one problem of the human condition?

Why do we need to get to those remote communities that don't yet know Christ? What are they missing and lacking? What are they yearning for?

Let me answer your question. Our main problem of human condition started from Genesis 11vs7. NKJV "Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”

Either way There must be confusion as whatsoever human being portray. It not everyone that will accept. It's a fact!

The only way to curb this is to first understand one another. That will be a big task because one party has to compromise for the other.

Your second question: Why do we need to get to those remote communities that don't yet know Christ? What are they missing and lacking?

Yes you want to bring the Truth to the people. At least you come with a good trail and the best way to do that is trying helping the people with their pressing issues like the missionary did which was building schools, roads, provide running water etc which was a good approach. Although other religion might take it by war and violence. In as much as I still have hope for humanity I hope this get better.

And yet a Christian preacher will see you and the next thing is telling you to believe or you burn in hell fire. Why the treat? You want me to believe in what you did at least first impression matters to everything. The early missionary in Nigeria has made prove. This made me quote the next author

James 4vs11-12 "
Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor? "

Ecclesia is the Greek method of organising people. What is the problem there?
