Sanchez01: Jesus is really giving the likes of you sleepless nights... The earlier you take Him in, the better.

mstik: Errm, First of all, let me point out that Christianity is not a thing of race or ethnicity
Jesus came to die for the whole of mankind, and anyone who accepts him, irrespective of race, will be saved
However, salvation primarily was for the Jews. Unfortunately for them, He was not accepted. They never expected the messiah to be of a lowly birth, to be an ordinary carpenter. They were expecting the messiah to arrive with pomp and pageantry, and destroy their oppressors, the Romans.
Now back to your question. Why should Africans accept Him?
Nobody is compelled to be a Christian, It's a person decision that is made. Whether its an Asian, African, or American, Christianity is not just another 'concept' or 'doctrine' that people are being forced to swallow.
I believe that when someone discovers the truth, they happily accept and hold on to it.
Christianity is not another western concept that you're making it to seem

morefire: Just listened to two supposed "educated" people arguing about the fight between Israel and Palestine and it is very pathetic how an average Christian in Nigeria is quick to Support the Israelis while an average Muslim supports the other side. It is even more pathetic when they enter into arguments as to who is right or wrong and how the whole fight has been turned into a religious war.
for the ignoramus still arguing blindly please note that Israel is not even a christian community, Judaism is the religion of the majority of citizens and according to the country's Central Bureau of Statistics, in 2005 the population was 76.1% Jewish, 16.2% Muslim, 2.1% Christian, and 1.6% Druze, with the remaining 3.9% not classified by religion.
For the Muslim brother thinking the Christians are fighting them and want a revenge I guess now you know that there are more of you guys out there than the Christians so fact is you have more of your people dying.
lets just read more before jumping into a BRT argument.
God bless everybody on earth irrespective of the race or religion
#PEACE

tonyayo1: I am a Christian by birth not by choice, same as so many of us. I'm a member of one of the most popular Church in this country but with what I do witness in my church and other churches, made me to believe that Christianity sucks. I got thousand and one questions to ask my brethren in the house but I'll ask but a few...
1. Why do Christian Churches have branches? E.g One city more than ten branches.


The same reason fast food restaurants have many branches. More branches= more attendees= more tithes and/or offerings


2. Why the pampering of Bible? To me the Book is like any printed Novel, we pamper it after what it passes through at the printing factory (imagine).

Because its "Holy"

3. Why do our pastor preach about things they are not sure of? E.g Christian God is the one true God and we'll reach him through jesus.

Does it matter?. People would believe anything .

4. Why are there so many different believes in Christianity? E.g Catholic, Sabbath, Jehovah Witness etc

The Bible/ Christian law apparently is open to varied interpretations.

5. Why does our big pastors live large while his congregations still struggle? What is he trying to achieve, they buy planes, security men guides them etc

If they were really struggling they would be wiser with their money. Or maybe it's the "give and it shall be given unto you" principle

WHY SO!
Like I said earlier I got thousand and one questions to ask, but if this few ones I mentioned above can be explained, I'll be so much grateful. I'm just a student trying to learn.

samflexxy: We have had so much about the end time,with so many bad and unspeakable things happening in this world I now think the end time is near!

cococandy:
Seriously though some of the accounts I read and hear about seem utterly unreasonable

Maybe I'm not a real christain duh
I've received tongue lashing since yesterday because I told my SIL that the visiting pastor who came to their church yesterday might be a fake one.

They've said prayers for my blaspheming soul and asked for forgiveness on my behalf.

The guy said he prayed for a woman who had fibroid and she passed it through her stool/excrement.
Like WTF!?
It would make a lil more sense if she said she had massive bleeding and pushed out the growth through her vaginaa. Hard to believe but a lil more easy on the ears than the story he told.

So I asked what's the connection between the intestines and the uterus? How did the fibroid leave the womb where it was embedded and transfered to her rectum so she could push it out via faeces?

I know fibroid is something that bleeds terribly and she couldn't have had such a massive miraculous surgery without a drop of blood lost.

But I guess that what makes it a miracle right?

Anyway I had to stop trying to explain my thoughts to them in order not to invoke the 'wrath' of God on the family with my blasphemy against a holy man of God



I haven't seen any such miracle before.
I don't believe them
