What's That Sin That Prevents You From Coming To Christ? by jesusjnr2020(op): 7:41am On Jan 03, 2021
For me, I can't really say which one exactly, because I was having issues of the cares of this world, covetousness, materialism, sexual lust, etc, so it was perhaps the combination of all those tendencies that seemed to prevent me from making that decision for God.

But I know there are some to whom it's just one thing, like a friend of mine who said it was "women", that was just his issue that made him not to make that decision to surrender his life to God.

What i've come to learn after I made that decision, is that whatever it was that was preventing anyone from making that decision to come to Christ was that which should bring the person to Christ, because He is One that has the solution to that issue whatever it is. Hence His saying:

Matthew 11:28 (KJV)

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

So you don't have to wait for that issue to go away before you come to Christ because you might keep waiting til it's too late. All you need, is the willingness to change, so come to Him with that willingness and He'd would make that willingness to become obedience.

If He did it for me and many others, He could also do it for you.

God bless.

We are sinful by nature.




You only need to draw close to God first and watch God draw close to you. (James 4: 8 ).

if jesus can't love people for who they are then he isn't as good as they say.

Why exactly would I go to "Christ"? isn't this Jesus a god all many Africans believe in but the Jews don't? The last time religious census was conducted in Israel they had 2% Christians while Muslims made up 14% https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/03/08/key-findings-religion-politics-israel/

these are people whose ancestors lived during the time and saw this Jesus live and die but they don't believe he was dying for them

a Nigerian, however, read from a book and concluded that 98% of the Jews are wrong because logic favours storytelling over experiencing something, Amirite you must know Obasanjo more than the people living with and around him because you read Punch newspapers and check internet for news about him.

The worst part is the book they read and conclude on is a slavery endorsing book handed to their ancestors by their pink skinned slavemasters. a book that didnt even acknowledge your existence; or where in your Jewish mythology book called Bible is it written that Noah left israel, traveled down to the deep jungles of Africa to warn your forefathers of an impending "global" flood?


Coming to Christ for me would be a middle finger to common sense and a welcome sign to stupidity

The decision to change ones life is not some dramatic accepting jesus and crying

It's as simple as deciding to do good

Go to the thread and see those young men counting their days without masturbation that is impressive

Instead of this falsehood open a thread let people start counting to their days without sin

The decision to change is as simple as that

Stop making everything a big drama

The church has ruined christianity just as the mosque ruined true islam

Abeg carry your lies go elsewhere.

You obviously know the Truth but are just here to deceive.

So stop pretending you don't know that this is the Truth and that's why it pains you so much.

We won't fall for it!

God bless.

You condemn what you don't obviously understand.

1. Noah didn't leave Israel to Africa to warn them of the coming global flooding.... Was there an Israel nation at that time? Do you know the part of the world inhabited at that time?

It's not a must to believe in Christ or not. Leave your life however you want it, at the end we'd know who was wrong, and who was right.

What's the harshness in what I said?

And what was the attack?

It seems you just want to claim to be the victim despite being the aggressor in this case.

But just so you'd know, i'm not here to make any point to you, but just to speak the Truth.

And that Truth which I speak pains you for obvious reasons that you must rubbish it.

But that doesn't change the fact that it's the Truth.

Deal with it!

Every person who doesn't know who you truly are and what your mission here is.

I know what you're about, that's the difference.

So friendship or conversation is not by force abi?

Or is use of force your style you that is feigning calmness?

Even Jesus Christ Himself declared that a prophet has no honor in his own country (John 4:44). So it shouldnt come as a surprise that most Jews dont recognize Him as the Savior of the human race. However, there are some Jews who believe that He is the Messiah. They are known as Jews for Jesus.
