fredx4:

Just be careful.

You didn't answer the question though.

fredx4:
Am not judging you bro. Just warning you.

So anyone who doesn't go to church will end up in hell fire, is that what you're saying?

Logicboy03: You are a religious deist?

Still trying to figure out the perfect word for it.

fredx4:

He's on his way to hellfire.

Judge not.

shinechinedu: Imagine ID cabassa a pastor

Or Eucharia Anunobi a bishop!

fredx4: Do you honestly expect every worker in the church to be perfect?

No, I don't. But I expect the leader of a church to be perfect to a reasonable extent.

fredx4: Don't let other people's actions decide your fellowship with God.

My fellowship with God has not ceased, it continues but in a more secluded manner.

fredx4: Do you think it is easy to serve God in isolation? Do you understand everything in the bible?

I actually thing it's more easy to serve God in isolation and I don't know everything in the bible, neither does anybody else.

fredx4: God does not call people into ministry(pastors, prophets, apostle, teacher and evangelist) just for the fun of it. They are there to help you develop your faith.

Out of 80% of pastors how many did God actually called? It's just like a blind-man leading someone to cross a road.

fredx4: Btw attend a pentecostal church not white garments, JW and orthodox churches

I'll already stated that I am a pentecostal christian, never attended a white-garment church before, never will.

shinechinedu: You re just philosophically above them all!! I can say you are an agnostic! Dude ever since our native doctors became Christians the church have not remained thesame

True talk brother. An agnostic is quite similar to a skeptic, it only shows we're getting somewhere.

Ranchhoddas: I think this is the category i am leaning towards.i see myself as healthy skeptic,i think that's what you are-A SKEPTIC.I recently came across the term ''liberal christian'' and i'm still trying to figure out exactly what it means but you also try to look it up.

Thanks, I've checked the both of them. I think I prefer the skeptic-christian to the liberal-christian.

Elantracey: Hmmmm,pastor dis,pastor dat,,,dis christian dis,dat christian dat....ah dont know wat to call u but u re goin to account 4 only urself in heaven and hypocrisy in churches wont be an excuse,,if u really love God n u wanna make heaven,try knowin him personally because just being good cant take u dere

I agree with your point to a great extent but it still boils down to going to church. Hypocrisy in the church was one the things Men of God preached against in the bible, so when the pastor and other ministers of a church do not live according to what they preach, then what is now the fate of a member? Isn't it the same as not going to church in the first place?

Personally, I won't mind going to church to showcase my dress, to chyke babes or to have fun in general but in the end I'll be fooling myself becaues none of these would help me after-death.

Christianity has gone to the dogs. These days everyone is a pastor, four different people who came to work in my dad's house were claiming to be pastors and they didn't even have a church. One was a carpenter, another was a tiles-man, another was a bricklayer and the last was a painter. This got me wondering, Did God actually called these people?

I'm not even talking about popular pastors buying private jets and exotic cars with offerings. To defend paying of offering and tithes, they'll say the bible said: Give to Ceaser what belonged to Ceaser but the bible didn't made mention of Money.

The other day, there was a thread on frontpage where a lady complained that the wife of her pastor asked her not to address her husband as 'pastor' but 'daddy.' It find it quite funny becaues I can't call my pastor daddy when he is not my father. I could totally relate to her story because most people worship their pastors instead of thier God, one of those people happens to be my mother.

There is a particular church she usually goes apart from the ones my family members attend, she always call the pastor 'daddy' and she is older than him. When anybody has a problem and comes across my mom she'll just suggest they go to that church to see "DADDY" and then there problem will be over.

She also called her jobless brother, my uncle who has been searching for a job to come all the way from Ibadan to come see "DADDY" and he'll definately have a job. It's sometimes annoying because she always says it with a tone of finality, and my uncle is not the only person my mom has taken to that church.

These whole thing is ringing in my head and It's driving me crazy, I refused to be dogmatic and I refused to be gullible.

I'm a christian but I don't like going to church.

Chimaritoponcho: serutcip or it didnt happen

Funny, a picture of what exactly. That I don't go to church?

FreeGlobe: This is exactly me. I believe in God, heaven, hell but I don't believe in today's churches. pastors don't practice what they preach and church doctrines are only the views of the pastor or how he understands the Bible whether right or wrong

It's good to know that people share the same ideology with me, well, since we can't find a term to call ourselves, I suggest we coin a word for it. And ideas?

Mods, please move this topic to the frontpage so we can get more contributions from fellow Nairalanders, Thanks.

Woah! So I am already in heaven, that's cool.

Africandope: I wonder why Mr olodo profile photo get plenty likes even pass Mukina2 I still dey wonder

Bros, no be only you dey wonder, me sef dey wonder. E be like say no be nairaland we dey but wonderland.

Andyblaze: u ar a blazeist

Hahahaha... You coined that word from your name, innit? So, you also don't like going to church.

tobillionaire: go form your own Church

You don't seemed to understand my point. I'm not a pastor neither am i planning to become one. I'm just a christian who doesn't succumbed to the doctrines practised in the church. I also don't believe in tithe.

MonsieurCoder: You are a christian that doesn't like going to church.

So when someone ask me about my faith, i am supposed to say ''I am a christian who doesn't like going to church.'' In my opinion, there should be a word for it.

I was born into a christian family and I am still a pentecostal christian but recently my christian life has been on the loosed side.

I believe God exist, I believe he created the world but I don't believe in the doctrines practised in the present day churches.

The church these days are full of hypocrites and immoralities, starting from the people who call themselves pastors. All my life, I've been trying to be a better christian but I've discovered that I am more righteous than the people who I am supposed to emulate in faith.

I've seen so many bad things happening in the house of God and I can't help but wonder if these are the people I'm supposed to be mingling with.

In my school, I know of some girls who are choir members in my fellowship but different guys usually come to bang them on weekly basics, even my friend who is an usher always queried me about why I don't like coming to church but this guy once banged a fellow church member whom he told me about, he also banged another lady who is a choir mistress in the fellowship when they went to camp. This guy is amongst the first set of people who always go to church early and he partakes in almost every activities which the fellowship organises. Unlike me, I rarely pray, read my bible or go to church but I'm more educationally successful than him. We both did pre-degree together but I passed imensely while he failed.

Now, this philosophy has really affected me greatly. I'm at home now and I also do not go to church. My dad has scolded me on countless occasions but to no avail. I believe I don't necessarily have to go to church before I can make heaven, I believe the church is my heart and what I make out of life. I don't need any pastor to tell me what I already know and besides, most pastors are mis-interpreting the bible.

I've searched for the perfect word to described my faith by couldn't find any. I thought I was an atheist, a pagan, an infidel, a free-thinker etc. But after checking their meanings intently none seemed to fit the defination of what I believe.

Recently, I discovered the word 'deism' but it wasen't the exact representation of my stance. It means to believe that God exist, that he created the world but he had since neglected his creatures and dis-associated himself from the happenings within. That's not what I believe, I believe God exist but I don't like going to church. What am I?

I'm still single because I'm a player

Somebody is proud to be called ugly, and somebody will still tell me that 'nobody is ugly.

White people are so silly

born_to_be_gr8t: Mr olodo is a special kind of fineboy...if na by number of likes o!..i no fit fine reach am till i die

hahahahaha... And some Nairalanders keeps saying the dude is ugly, while others says he has a big head etc. Now, who is deceiving who? Is it that he got those many likes because he is ugly, cause me I don't understand o!

SELENAqueensy: ....
Post d correct link jorh

I'm so sorry about that, I've tried several ways to post the correct link but none seemed working because of the [•] in his moniker, I've decided to remove the link, you guys would have to search for his profile. You can use google or the local search on Nairaland.

Least I forget, Mr•olodo has two account, the formal one which he no longer uses has no likes.

How To Know If You're Ugly.

In recent time, this is one of the most ironic and funny thing that has happened in the history of Nairaland. Ladies and Gentlemen, if Mr•olodo's profile picture still has more likes than yours, then you're definately ugly.

To y'all forming sexy, pretty, beautiful, cute, handsome on Nairaland, I dare you guys to upload your pictures and let's compare and contrast it with that of Mr•olodo. You already know the drill, if he still has more likes than you, then you're f'ugly.

Keep it Rolling!!

Hehehehehehehe.. This s'hit are funny, expecting more!!

I think dammy krane was trying to whisper somethiing into davido's ears.

That picture is real as Bleep. I've seen alot of those crocks in a local market here in my city. They're not even dead but their mouth are tied with a rope.

andyanders:

Since ONLY ugly girls gets attracted to you,that shows that there is something ugly and dirty about you they keep getting attracted to you. You said you love beautiful guls and ONLY UGLY ones keep coming your way. That shows that there is something bad about you because forces that attract beauty always finds beauty along the line and ugly forces attracts ugly bitches hence your attraction to ONLY ugly bitches,

I give up!

jewel4Hiscrown:

I probably shouldn't take the time to respond to this thread. Oh, well.

You don't like to hurt a girl's feelings, you say... but you proceed to call them ugly. Until you have the capacity and capability to create a human being - or even a cell - please don't call people ugly as that is blasphemous. It makes more sense to say you are not attracted to them.

As far as them being attracted to you.. that's not the same as locking you in jail. You don't have to date them, it's not by force. Part of being a man is knowing how to firmly but respectfully refrain from wasting a woman's time by tactfully telling her that the attraction is not mutual. When you eventually settle down, then if you are as attractive as you are trying to make yourself out to be, the women will not disappear mysteriously so what will you do? Will you tell your wife you don't want to hurt a girl's feelings? You actually hurt women worse if you lead them on.

Please remember as well that looks fade. Not just pretty women's looks, but yours as well. Have a good week.

Bros, talk is cheap. If there are no ugly beings, how come you never date ugly girls.

Mummytea: @Op, i so get u aii.. Full lips are fun to kiss.. It makes d kiss last much longer. Buh der r some guys wif really big lips.. Der aren't proportionate @all. Dats disgusting i tell ya.

andyanders:

Good answer to a man who reason with his anus. He needs deliverance

can't you make a comment without using the 'anus' word? Even your moniker is andyanders, trying to hide it under the pretence of a'nal? You must be a fvcking gay!!
