lecoeur: My dear, you have scaled the most difficult part.. Un learning the bull shiit they fed us with why growing up.. The next step is to first know who you are.. The truth is we are all divine beings having a human experience or walking a human path.. Find your path.., the catch is that it has to be for the betterment of humanity.. 1 Like |

religion is all base on judgment. Ie the day of the judgment if you believe in life after death then religious is the way for you to know what to do and what not to do. Basically all religions teach same thing. Just fine one and follow it's teaching with proof in reality. I do suggest Islam. but if you don't believe in life after death then it is on to you and your life. Thinks critically. |

Have you heard of IUIC. Follow them. The Bible is true but people have abused and manipulated the teachings therein. IUIC will open your eyes to the deception, manipulation and falsehood of Christianity and Islam. They will teach you the Bible without mixing religion |

Yes. Thanks to the maker as the seed as being sowed by your dad, as you fill bothered on the religion. Your dad was sick, Steven saw his death brother great men of God saw there dead but the joy is the know where the are going. The big question is if I die now where am I going... The thought of not living for God will never leave you because the existence of an Almighty Creator (God) cannot escape man's heart of thought so if this thought link to an existence then there is a faith call the christain faith which originate from Christ the saviour. Wether you believe or not do not count but the will of God is that non should perish but if a fool decides to be give him wine that he may be lost. Don't be a lost ship |

lecoeur:Have you ask yourself what Christianity is all about? This is the first step. secondly, I believe you have the bible, read through it starting from John, kneel down and ask God for revelation of himself. Note you can only know God through a revelational knowledge. Becoming a Christian is not about acting religious but to know God and Jesus Christ. |

You are learning that fairytales have no answer to life's problems. Instead you need to focus on your education and building yourself up to achieve your goals and dreams. As you do so make sure to help your family, support your mum especially in this trying period where your dad is incapacitated. Go out, do something and make something of yourself. 6 Likes |

CAN YOU BELIEVE I STARTED ASKING THESE QUESTIONS FROM A YOUNG AGE OF 7? YES A LOT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME EVEN AS A CHILD. YOU HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO AND THESE THINGS ARE CAPABLE OF DISTRACTING YOU FROM A LOT THAT YOU CAN GET IF YOU DON'T KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. YOU'RE GONNA LOSE LOVE AND ATTENTION FROM FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL THINK YOU'RE MAD. IF YOU'RE STILL DEPENDANT A LOT COULD GO WRONG FOR YOU SO IT'S BETTER YOU STAY ON THE LOW AND GROW INTO ATHEISM LIKE WE ALL DID. WITH TIME NONE OF THESE WILL BOTHER OR MAKE YOU SCARED AND WORRIED, AND YOU'LL JUST LAUGH ABOUT THESE FAIRY TALES, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT RELIGIOUS BELIEFS ARE. ALSO, IGNORE THESE PEOPLE TRYING TO BRAINWASH YOU FURTHER. YOU'RE ALREADY LEAVING RELIGION, THERE'S NO POINT TURNING BACK. 9 Likes 1 Share |

It's good that you're confronting your doubts about religion. I respect anyone who is brave enough to question the beliefs they were brought up with for it's merits. I was similar to you once upon a time. I was brought up in a christian household and was force fed Christianity like another normal Nigerian child. I had always had questions, but the answers i got weren't satisfactory. Things really began when i got access to the internet (around 2007) and i got exposed to different Ideas and knowledge. I started seeing more and more the flaws in my faith until i eventually lost my faith. Contrary to what you might have been told, it's OK to question things. If something is true, it will withstand objective scrutiny. Religion constantly tells you how the wisdom of man is flawed, but it's one of the best tools we had. So one of the first things i feel you should do is browse up on logical reasoning and logical fallacies. This will help train your ability to reason and discern information (it's a skill that can be learnt). I recommend you watch these atheist you tube channels : Cosmic skeptic, Holly Koolaid, Genetically modified skeptic. You should still also read the bible and listen to what ever preacher you want. Pls understand me, the point is not to make you an atheist, but to encourage you to think and expose yourself to different ideas. If at the end your faith is strengthened then fine, but if not then that's ok. |

There are many religions, philosophy and belief system in the world but only Jesus Christ can satisfy your soul. |

lecoeur: In all cultures and traditions on planet earth, people welcome and treat strangers well because we need neighbours to do so many things. So Jesus' true followers will find you, but take note of these three necessary virtuous attributes. (1)When someone leaves the comfort of his home, to pay you a visit IN THE NAME OF GOD. Never treat them badly! (2)There are many things God wants to tell you that's why humans pass information to humans, so listen carefully to the presentation of anyone who comes to you IN THE NAME OF GOD! (3) Because of the evil perpetrated by the so called religious people, many have developed a special kind of hatred towards GOD, so ask simple and sincere questions about how humans can live together with LOVE JOY and PEACE. Only God can provide a satisfying answer to that question! Hence only his TRUE servants (Worshipers) have the answer! God bless you! |

MISHIGAS! lecoeur: (1) THE FIRST SIGN OF UNSERIOUSNESS. TROLLS often feign illiteracy. lecoeur: (2) THE SECOND SIGN OF A FAKE POST. Atheists pretending to have been EX-CHRISTIANS usually hide what sort of "Christians" they allegedly were. It is difficult to come up with excuses that explain why one's Religion FAILED- but that it was NOT one's fault- only GOD'S. . EXODUS 20:1-7. AND God Spake all these Words, Saying, 2. "I (am) The LORD thy God, Which have brought thee out of The Land of Egypt, out of The House of Bondage. 3. "Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. 4. "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness (of any thing) that (is) in the Earth beneath, or that (is) in the Water under the Earth: 5. "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I The LORD thy God (am) a Jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the third and fourth (generation) of them that Hate Me. 6. "And shewing Mercy unto thousands of them which Love Me, and Keep My Commandments. 7. "Thou shalt not take The Name of The LORD thy God in vain; for The LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His Name in vain." . NUMBERS 15:27-31. 27. "And if any man Sin through Ignorance, then he shall bring a She Goat of the first year for a Sin Offering. 28. "And the Priest shall make an Atonement for the Soul that Sinneth Ignorantly, when he Sinneth by Ignorance before The LORD, to make an Atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him. 29. " Ye shall have one Law for him that Sinneth Ignorantly (both for) him that is born among the Children of Israel, and for the Stranger that sojourneth among them. 30. "But the Soul that doeth (ought) presumptuously, (whether he be) born in the land, or a Stranger, the same reproacheth The LORD; and that Soul shall be cut off from among his people. 31. "Because he hath despised The Word of The LORD, and hath broken His Commandment, that Soul shall utterly be cut off; his Iniquity (shall be) upon him." lecoeur: (3) ATHEIST PROPAGANDA ALONE STATES THAT CHRISTIANITY IS BASED ON THE BLIND BELIEF OF UNPROVEN MYTHS: FALSE CHRISTIAN "OPPONENTS" OF ATHEISM SAY AND DO NOTHING TO DISPROVE THAT NOTION. Whereas, in Reality, OYINBO CHRISTIANS and OYINBO ATHEISTS are ALL ON THE SAME TEAM TOGETHER! They only PRETEND to be FIGHTING. In Reality, they are WORKING TOGETHER to DESTROY the TRUE Christianity. The PRO-SLAVERY and ANTI-INDEPENDENCE Churches are AGAINST personal Reading and Interpretation of The Bible, and AGAINST PERSONAL EXPERIENCE OF THE POWER OF GOD. lecoeur: . DEUTERONOMY 6:4-9. 4. Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5. And thou shalt love The LORD thy God with all thine Heart, and with all thy Soul, and with all thy might. 6. And these Words, which I Command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7. And thou shalt teach Them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of Them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8. And thou shalt bind Them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9. And thou shalt write Them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates. YOUR FATHER HAD ONE MAJOR JOB: TO TEACH HIS CHILDREN THE LAW OF GOD. This becomes the Foundation of The Fundamental Spiritual Powers- which destroy all foolish questions before they begin. . THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER. 1. TOTAL RECALL. 2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION. 3. TELEKINESIS. 4. TELEPORTATION. 5. TRANSLATION. 6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE. IF YOU WERE REALLY A TEENAGER, YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO ACTIVATE YOUR POWER OF TOTAL RECALL WITH EASE. . JOSHUA 1:8. 8. "This Book of The Law shall not depart out of thy mouth but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have Good Success." YAHWEH GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH AND THE HUMAAN RACE- THE LAW OF MOSES IS THE VERBAL EXPRESSION OF THE HOLY KEYS TO CREATION. If you understand The Law of God by Moses, you will Understand ALL CREATION to the extent of being able to CONTROL IT WITH YOUR SOUL. That Understanding can ONLY be achieved through MEDITATION ON THE LAW OF GOD BY MOSES. Organized Oyinbo Colonial/Imperialist Oppressor Churches CANNOT AFFORD TO ALLOW THEIR MEMBERS TO KNOW THAT MEDITATION EXISTS. That is because THEY CANNOT CONTROL Christians who achieve what God calls "GOOD SUCCESS." MEDITATION IN THE LAW is THE ONLY WAY to ACHIEVE It. If there were another Way, GOD WOULD HAVE TOLD US. (4) WHEN YOU BELONG TO A CHURCH THAT DENIES LORD YESHUA'S TEACHINGS, GOD DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR STATE OF HEALTH! Your father told you that those privately Praying for people suffering Strokes, and those who Testified of Healing and receiving Healing of Strokes were "FANATICS." Therefore, when he was in danger of Stroke, God would not help him. lecoeur: (5) HOW MANY PEOPLE DID YOUR MOTHER HEAL OF STROKE- OR ANYTHING AT ALL? None. Obviously. This is a really stupid question: you are hiding what Church your family belongs to, (NONE, OBVIOUSLY!) You tell us nothing about your mother's PRAYER TECHNIQUE. Then you expect us to magically understand WHY YOUR MOM'S PRAYERS ARE USELESS! I possess such magic. I have been a BORN AGAIN, "HOLY GHOST BAPTIZED," FULL GOSPEL CHRISTIAN for FORTY YEARS- my expertise in Biblical Christianity is UNPARALLELED. I operate on a level of Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge no other Christian in the English-speaking World has achieved. I know everything I need to know about your alleged Family to know why your Religion does not work. GOD COMMANDED YOUR PARENTS TO TEACH YOU WHAT YOU ARE NOW IGNOMINIOUSLY BEGGING STRANGERS TO TELL YOU: THEY DID NOT DO THAT; THAT IS CALLED INIQUITY, THAT IS, DELIBERATE SIN! lecoeur: (6) YOU ARE A LIAR, WHO NEVER PRACTICED CHRISTIANITY, FROM A FAMILY OF LIARS, WHO NEVER PRACTICED CHRISTIANITY. . JOHN 15:1-16. "I AM The True Vine, and my Father is The Husbandman. 2. "Every branch in me that beareth not Fruit He taketh away: and every branch that beareth Fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring forth more Fruit. 3. "Now ye are clean through the Word Which I have Spoken unto you. 4. "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5. "I am the Vine, ye are the Branches: 'HE THAT ABIDETH IN ME AND I IN HIM, THE SAME BRINGETH FORTH MUCH FRUIT:' for without me ye can do Nothing. 6. "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the Fire, and they are burned. 7. "If ye abide in me, and my Words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8. "Herein is my Father Glorified, 'THAT YE BEAR MUCH FRUIT.' so shall ye be my Disciples. 9. "As The Father hath Loved me, so have I Loved you: continue ye in my Love. 10. "If ye keep my Commandments, ye shall abide in my Love; even as I have kept my Father's Commandments, and abide in His Love. 11. "These things have I Spoken unto you, that my Joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12. "This is my Commandment, 'THAT YE LOVE ONE ANOTHER, AS I HAVE LOVED YOU.' 13. "Greater love hath no man than this, 'THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS.' 14. "Ye are my Friends, if ye do whatsoever I Command you. 15. "Henceforth I call you not "Servants;" for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you "Friends;" for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. 16. "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth Fruit, and that your Fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of The Father in my Name, He may give it you." lecoeur: (7) lecoeur: ( THIS IS FURTHER EVIDENCE THAT THIS IS NOTHING BUT A TROLL POST, AND A PACK OF LIES! It is IMPOSSIBLE that you not have FRIENDS whom you could talk to within and without your supposed Church, at school and in your neighbourhood. lecoeur: . LEVITICUS 24:10-16. 10. And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the Children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a Man of Israel strove together in the camp; 11. And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed The Name of The LORD, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: [and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:] 12. And they put him in ward, that the Mind of The LORD might be shewed them. 13. And The LORD Spake unto Moses, Saying, 14. "Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the Congregation stone him. 15. "And thou shalt speak unto the Children of Israel, saying, 'WHOSOEVER CURSETH HIS GOD SHALL BEAR HIS SIN.' 16. "And he that blasphemeth The Name of The LORD, he shall surely be put to Death, and all the Congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the Stranger,. as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth The Name of The LORD, shall be put to Death." WHERE DID YOU ACQUIRE THE RIGHT TO TELL US THAT YOU ARE NOT BAD? You are EXTREMELY EVIL! lecoeur: (9) A REAL SON, OF REAL PARENTS, WITH A REAL PROBLEM, BELONGING TO A REAL CHURCH, WOULD FIRST ASK HOW TO KNOW OBTAIN THE HELP OF GOD TO HEAL HIS FATHER AND HIS CHURCH. He would never care about being "INSULTED." NAIRALAND will FULLY SUPPORT your "Right" to BLASPHEME GOD, but will PUNISH people for "INSULTING" you! That tells us that NAIRALAND is run by people who DO NOT BELIEVE IN GOD. You are a FICTITIOUS person, because you do not have the MOTIVATIONS and PRIORITIES of a REAL PERSON. |

lecoeur:First: One of the "wrongest" misrepresentation of the gospel is that when you become "born again", your problems become solved and that you will be immuned to life's calamities. NO! Second: Does God Really exist? 1. Everything natural/physical things has a beginning! 2. Order and Systems can never come out of randomness! 3. It takes ordered energy to create order and Systems. 4. A system cannot self assemble or occur by chance. 4. Whatever made the Universe must be outside the Universe and certainly not made of natural/physical things God is a SPIRIT: a conscious being not made up of matter. Third: The universe was made as a garden for God. Humans are the peak of His creations (Union of Physical and Spiritual). Gods desire is to select out of the billions of humans a select few who meet His criteria to be worthy of an everlasting status as "sons of God". Fourth: The world is a big exam field for selection of those who successfully executed the will of God out of their own FREE WILL! 1 Like |

lecoeur: Your dad is not the only Christian. Many Christians have had much worse illnesses. Some Christian families have been wiped out in mass killings. Your family is nothing special. God's existence should not be determined by everyday occurrences that just happened to hit your dad. I am sure you didn't question God's existence when you heard about the holocaust, or the Rwanda genocide, or the sosoliso crash. It just had to be your father's stroke.
