Why Jesus Cannot Save or Heal You by Nobody: 11:15am On Mar 07, 2020
I would like to state a few reasons why I think Jesus cannot save you. These reasons are based on hard facts , experience and what I see happening in Nigeria on a daily basis.

Jesus cannot defeat Boko Haram
Despite pastors cursing Boko Haram on a daily basis, and despite all the prayers to Jesus, Boko Haram is still a pain in our back side.

Jesus cannot bring you peace
Despite the promise of peace, many Christians suffer from stress, high blood pressure and anxiety. Sorry, Jesus cannot bring you peace. If you want peace, live within your means, live a contented life, avoid a quarrelsome existence and, operate by the well known mantra - live and let live.

Jesus cannot heal the sick
Our hospitals are overwhelmed with the sick despite the large population of born again believers. Even though healing is prominently promised in the bible, the sick are not getting healed by Jesus, they are getting healed by medicine and doctors.

Jesus cannot make you rich
95% of people who pay tithes are broke, despite the bible promising a bountiful harverst. Jesus is not a money multiplier, he cannot make you rich. You gotta work hard bro and sis.

Jesus cannot bring overwhelming righteousness to Nigeria
The bible says that when the light shines , the darkness is driven out. In Nigeria it appears that the darkness is driving out the light despite the millions and millions of born again believers. It's either 99% of the believers in Nigeria are fake or Jesus is fake. Irrespective, Jesus followers and their master are not increasing righteousness in Nigeria.

Jesus cannot make you overcome sin

Oh please dont make me laugh. Christians in Nigeria are unable to overcome sin , thats for sure. They lie, cheat, steal, fornicate, bribe, receive bribes, bear false witness, sleep with the wives/husbands of other people, hate anyone who is not part of their church talk less of Christianity as a whole and humanity in general.......

Jesus cannot make the blind see or deaf hear
No need for examples here, even Christians know this is true; and yet Jesus told his followers that they will make the blind see and deaf hear. Another lie ??

Jesus cannot raise the dead
As a former Christian in some of the staunchest cultic sects, I have never seen a dead body raised from the dead. Its either Jesus lied, or Christians are doing it wrong.

Jesus cannot drive out demons
So many mad people and mentally challenged individuals in Nigeria and Christians are unable to cast out their demons and restore them to sanity.

Jesus is not coming back
His disciples expected him to come back in their life time to no avail. Its now over 2000 years and Jesus is still not here. Oh please, stop deceiving yourselves, he aint coming back.

I am a living witness to the power of Jesus to heal , to protect , give peace , to bless and to drive out demons . But to you , Jesus is all that you have written about him because you belong to the devil.

Your unbelief would not change the truth to falsehood. Surely , you would regret ever rejecting Jesus as your saviour when you dies.

You are just one person, so you're irrelevant.

We are talking about Nigerian Christians as a whole.

All jesus can offer is dreams. Look at Nigerian society.

You know, on a personal level the Jesus story is so inspiring and comforting, one can understand why people desperately cling to it. It is when you look at the broader picture and realize that it is nonsense and can be damaging nonsense, that you really want to kick it to where it belongs, back into the book it came from.

@ bolded I rather stick with Jesus who gives me hope, comfort,Joy and love than atheism that gives hopelessness,uncertainty and confusion. Fact, an atheist has no hope after death and life is obscure, dark and meaningless but Jesus makes you understand you purpose and evalasting joy.

Who cares about after death? I'll be dead with nothing to care about. You should have just said you are scared of death, that will be understandable. It is after all a finality, with nothing surviving to come back and tell us what it's like.

Meanwhile, you are wrong in saying atheism gives hopelessness,uncertainty and confusion. That is a caricature based on your fairytale. We do not need a god story to tell us what to do with our lives and thankfully so because it frees us to do and be and expand the horizons of human knowledge and capabilities while god believers like you insist you know it all and rely on prayers. It wasn't your prayers to god that manufactured the device you are using to post and it won't be your prayers that bring about the next technological advance that you'll rush to go spend your money on.

with God, life makes more meaning, If there is no God then life would make no sense, morality would be subjective according to individual taste, every man may at one point in time ponder on the reason for his existence, unfortunately atheism offer no real answers. Without God the device I m using wont even be possible, he created the material used in making it, he created the principles/laws he guided people into discovering it.
As a matter of fact man has nothing everything he has he recieved them. Man is nothing without God, for example you dont even know if you will see tomorrow.
Yes prayers itself is nothing, it is the prayer to God through Jesus Christ that has answers. When we pray, God can guide our actions, thought process or even asking the right question to would give a result. So your thought process shows you know little about prayer.

Blah, blah, blah and more blah. There is nothing you gain by all this prayer a quick exercise in meditation cannot achieve. Your god stories are unnecessary for achieving anything in this life.

I was in Nigeria recently. People are sick all over the place and the hospitals are also full. Where are the Jesus healers ? Nowhere to be found. Please don't make me laugh.

Without doctors and family support, 95% of the sick will perish.

Your pastors are comedians and the white Jesus is helpless.

Of all what you typed up there, Jesus never promised his followers that he will continue to do all that for them!

He did it when he walked the earth to strengthen their faith in God's promise of a Paradise when all evil will be gone for good.
But the cancelled is a certainty, Jesus is coming back to destroy all those who refuse to live by the rules he laid down and commanded his followers to continue teaching obedient humans! Matthew 28:19-20; Luke 19:27

Depends on what you mean by "Jesus", I think, because I can assure you that you would consider yourself unsaved; unable to live, for sure, if it weren't that you had some "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it", in and around you. (Though, I admit that Jesus is not the only word there is).

See here. Stop where it starts "But John goes beyond the familiar concept of Logos", as that's gobbledygook meant for we religious folks only.
