₦airaland Forum

Fegelfire:
Muslims get too much luxury treatment on this forum. They have a cute little forum that only they can post in( ) and the only time I see them enter into threads on the main religious section is during comparisons between Islam and Christianity, where they beg like dogs for new followers to their madman's cult. It's insane how brainwashed the average muslim can be.

Allah isn't real, Mohammad was warlord and the Quran is a book of myth, fable and tyranny writ by mortal hands and mortal minds.

OK noted but the big question is...HOW DO WE MAKE THEM FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST IF WE CONTINUE THIS WAY...

All these hate words won't change a thing and to think that GOD does not recognize Islam and Christianity as insitutions yet we kill and hate each other over this....what a shame.

ayili:
Exactly my point.. You were the one confusing people saying one can be christ-like and Mohammed-like at the same time. The truth is that it doesn't work that way. Am not saying that one should be in an "institutionalized" religion as you call it but if one confesses Christ, he has to leave completely his old ways of life and embrace a new life in Christ, God helping him/her

Just let's make it simple for non believers to accept Jesus...I know why I wrote this...anyone who believes in christ is for christ and christ alone and I need not complicate matters.

ayili:
How is Christianity been institutionalized?? Besides Since you say there is a difference between Christianity and being Christ-Like then I urge you to be more Christ-like but mind you, one cannot be Christ-like and behave Mohammad-like , one cannot be Christ-like and behave like an atheist No you can't serve two masters at the same time (Mathew 6:24)


#But there is a place in the scriptures that says you should leave your old ways of life and identify with the Christ-like type of life.(2corth.5:17)
#But there is a place that say you must believe and confess your your mouth ( Romans 10:10) .. You can't believe and confess Jesus Christ as Lord in a mosque and keep worship Christ in a mosque.
# will a man light a lamp and keep it under a bushel? Rather he will put it on a lampstand that it may give light to all.(Mathew 5:15) verse 16 say let your light so shine before men.. Let me ask again why will one accept Christ Jesus as lord and personal Savior yet hid under Islam and expects that Christ will not be shames of him on the judgment day (Luke 9:26).

what will it cost a believer to leave totally the Islamic way of life when he/she accept Christ? Why leave a life of deception?
If you are for Christ stand for Christ, if you are for islam stand for Islam Don't camouflage one for another it can be dangerous to your redemption.


living a "righteous life" is not a way to salvation doing good works can only earn your heavenly crowns but it can NOt guarantee you heaven BUT wait why will one believe in Jesus as Christ as only way to salvation but still continue it live a Mohammad-like lifestyle and not a Christ like life style Why? If a man be in Christ, he is a new creature for the old have passed way (2corth. 5:17) if one believes in Christ he needs to leave the old ways of life he needs to leave Islam and be identified with Christ Jesus.

pls don't get it wrong oh... Being Christ like is not automatically oh you have to make a conscious effort to imitate Christ by studying his words, walking in his footsteps and obeying his commands.

All these theological permutation and combination is the reason why people are not getting saved.

Preach salvation and get people saved first biko...The holy spirit will lead them.

This thread is aimed at bringing souls to christ and not asking anyone to be part of the institutionalized religion called Christianity but to belong to christ and be christ like by virtue of their salvation.

SaudiBoy:
Mr strong man

There is a very wide difference bw a girlfriend and a wife that is why it is very easy for you to ditch your girlfriend. When you cough out 2m to marry a woman and she bears u a child then u will understand, thatthe decisions u make hence forth shud take into consideration Now, the future and ur child.

My guy see,some people here will advise you from their heads and some from their heart but only few will advise you from experience and I just did...


As you can see..she still loves you but there is just something pulling her back so please focus on your business for now and see what is happening as an act of GOD.

SaudiBoy you have no issue except frustration as a result of the present situation which will pass.

Let her be and focus on building your life...trust me,she will realize how special her marriage is and come back.

It is difficult I know but some things happen for a reason so embrace that opportunity right now and focus on building your life.

ayili:
What do you mean by ""Christianity as a religion is different from being Christ like? "" mind you Christianity means being Christ like and the word Christians was first use in Antioch(acts 11:19-30) because the believers were said to be leaving a Christ-like lifestyle

Now you CAN'T be Christ-Like and be practicing another religion. If one is truly Christ-like then he need not be ashamed of identifying with Christ (mark 3:38) besides the Bible encourages christ-like people to fellowship together (Hebrew 10:25) hence it's NOT OK if one is Christ-like and at the same time fellowship with other unchrist-like people.
The only way to salvation is through Christ Jesus. To accept Christ Jesus, you must believe and confess with your mouth (Romans 10:10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.) John 3:16 say "whosever believe in him " so salvation is NOt about good works alone one can be an unbeliever and be doing Good Good works, that doesn't guarantee salvation.

The term Christian was first used by Pagans in antioch and YES I agree that if you are christ like then you are a true Christian but today the world has INSTITUTIONALIZED the word Christian which is not the same as the meaning of the "christ like" but a religion.

There is no place in the scriptures that says you must belong to Christianity before you can make heaven but to accept Jesus as your lord and saviour.

So YES a Muslim can continue to be a Muslim yet accept Jesus as lord and saviour...it's a mystery and a revelation for this end time.

A typical Muslim lives a "righteous" life and a typical Christian does same but it becomes so hard on the Muslims when you tell them that they must convert and drop there "religion" and this is unscriptural.

Rather tell them about salvation and once they accept Jesus as lord and saviour they become born again,redeemed and christ like automatically by virtue of their acceptance.

akech:
Until when you get there before your eyes will clear, I reserve further comment since you are yet married. Till then

Till then my brother..many people just talk from fantasy...

ayili:
Accepting Jesus as a messenger is not the same as accepting Jesus as the way the truth and the life. If you are using the passage John 14:6 to validate accepting Jesus as a messenger then you have to check it again, the passage says nothing of messengership of Jesus rather the way, truth and life as a Muslim that claim to accept Jesus then it has to be accepting him as the only way, the truth and life through which you can gain access to the presence of the Father (eternally).

Gbam!

But the truth is that the world has made salvation difficult because they preach religion...meaning if you are not practising Christianity as a religion then you can be saved but Christianity as a religion is different from being Christ like.

Proudgorgeousga:
you are the one missing it. to practice the religion Christianity, believing in Jesus alone isn't enough you also have to congregate with other believers. so all you have been trying to say in this your thread is that Christianity is the way but not Islam which in my opinion is horseshit

Can you now see you are totally missing the point.

You don't have to go to a church before you can be a believer in christ. .and wait for this....YOU DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE FROM ISLAM TO CHRISTIANITY in order to be a believer in christ.

You can go to mosque,pray 5times daily,go to mecca a trillion times and observe all the ed festivals and still accept Jesus as lord and saviour because Islam and Christianity are just religion but salvation of our soul is only through Jesus who brought redemption(Not religion) to the world.

Let me stop here and I just wish lalasticlala can put this unbiased thread to front page.

certifiedfool:
This shows clearly what you mean with your rubbish write-up. You simply means Christianity is the way why Islam is not. Or why would you want him to convert if he already have a religion.

Why can't you just come out clean with your intentions rather than beating around the bush...

Folks like you who think they're knowledgeable create problems
in our society and deserves to be culled out...

Why the religion comparison. For Christ sake, can't you stick with what you believe in and leave others to worship what they believe. Why can't people live and co-habit freely without this religion comparison...

You see what you want to see.

Jesus is the way...not Islam or Christianity as religious bodies and I don't know where you saw any comparison except the one you formed in your head.

Proudgorgeousga:
why should he join bible believing church? I thought you said religion doesn't matter and that only accepting jesus leads to salvation

keep fooling and contradicting your self

You are the one missing it.

When you accept christ as lord and saviour you become a believer in christ and you are redeemed.
.this is totally different from the institutionalized body called Christianity.

The bible teaches us about Jesus and a church is the body of christ (Not a building)

hakeem4:
Both are wrong

Only salvation that matters.

Lirqur:
Well you're correct about what Jesus (pbuh) said in John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.[/color] That was Jesus explaining that tonow Allah you have to accept him. Which checkmates the Muslims belief that "to be regarded as a Muslim, You have to accept Jesus (pbuh) as a messenger of Allah. All of us are waiting the return of Jesus (pbuh).

Salaam.

You are a valid candidate for heaven cos I sense in my spirit that your soul yearns fir christ.

Please read that sinners prayer and if you can join any bible believing church just do so to build your faith...

Your soul is too precious to GOD and news flash! God asked me to tell you that he wants to use you for his glory.

Please yield.

DynasTee:
Stop religion comparison
Just preach the gospel

Did you at least take time out to read just few lines?

Please imbibe the reading culture...cos making comments based on titles can be very embarrassing.

Julivas:
Wow. ...... love this write - up .I pray people can make use of it.
@op, I hope you continue to do this and leave those romance stuffs.

Thanks but Romance plays a big role in human existence and i just dont write on romance but i give valuable advise.

Freelance writing is a passion i wish i can let go but my greatest passion is winning souls for the kingdom of GOD.

i WISH LALASTICLALA CAN PUT THIS ON FRONT PAGE..after all,the disclaimer on nairaland makes it perfectly ok.

Religion is never the same as salvation. The world created and institutionalized Religion but GOD GAVE US SALVATION through Christ Jesus.

Whether you practice Islam or Christianity as a religion,whether you convert from Islam to Christianity or from Christianity to islam,whether you pray in a Mosque or in a church,whether you observe Christmas/Easter or Ed festivals,whether you call him Allah in Arabic or Jehovah in Hebrew language and whether you go to Mecca or Jerusalem a thousand times,it is inconsequential to GOD because there is no religion in his kingdom neither are there Muslims or Christians but only those who have accepted salvation through the blood of Jesus that was shed on the cross of Calvary.

You can practise Christianity as a religion and still miss heaven and as a practising Muslim, you can go to mosque,pray 5times daily,go to mecca a trillion times and observe all the ed festivals and still accept Jesus as lord and saviour without joining "the christian religion" because Islam and Christianity are just religion but salvation of our soul is only through Jesus who brought redemption(Not religion) to the world.

No matter the religion you practice,Until you accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior,you have no hope of ever seeing GOD's kingdom(Janna) and you have automatically made a choice to spend your eternity in hell after you leave this world.

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.(John 14:6)and Quran 4:171 clearly refers to Jesus as the messiah

Accepting Jesus as your lord and savior is the easiest yet the most rewarding decision you can ever make whilst you are still alive. No matter where you live on earth,just read these words aloud and you are automatically saved.

"Lord Jesus Christ, I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask your forgiveness and now turn from everything which I know is wrong. Thank you for dying on the cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever. Thank you Lord Jesus Amen.”

If you just read the above aloud i say a Big congratulations..No matter how hard you struggle with sins after you have been saved please don't ever give up your salvation but Continue to sincerely pray for the Holy spirit to help you perfect your salvation and i hope to see you someday in GOD's kingdom....

Life is fickle and anyone can die at anytime..The worst thing that can ever happen to any human is to be caught dead without accepting Jesus as lord and saviour.

Please share this post and lets save souls together for GOD's kingdom.

PriaO:
I know, right
. Things as little as occupying their favourite seat in the living room. Stubborn girl that I was, I wouldn't want to stand up...will be asking them if they bought the chair or wrote their names on it.

You must be a very stubborn lady lol!

I happen to be the third born and the first is a lady. ..in those days she speaks to us with her eyes and if you dare disobey those unspoken message you are on your own. I feared her like kilometers but today we just laugh about it.

HigherEd:
Amazingly, Christianity is a "senseless" faith led by senseless people in submission to a Senseless Savior. God forbid on Christ return that all He meets is a sensible church...

SMH!

vivaciousvivi:
Without Explorers, Toks2008 and Myndd44 (whom I loathe) then u have a very incomplete list.

Sarrki and tosyne2much (my paadi) do deserve to be on that list.

Btw, where is luminouz abi na luminous?

OH MY! Vivi it's been ages...

Hope you are good..remain blessed sis.

Neochemist:
Who moved this gibberish to front page?

What's the meaning of knowledge of evil on Earth. After Eve ate apple you think anyone is ignorant of the myriads of evil on earth. Even kids know the world is evil

Honestly you spike my mind. It can't be the work of lalasticlala cos the post is dead on arrival.

So you want them to waste their young age jumping from man to man gosh!

franchasng:
there are guys who truly love and want to settle down with their girlfriends, but their pocket isn't encouraging them, what do u have to say about this

We as a people, we as citizens of Nigeria should collecticely strive to improve the standard of living in Nigeria where well paid job and businesses will be available for those ready to work, so that young men can have the financial backup that will encourage them to go into marriage instead of persuading every man to marry whether he's doing well financially or not thereby giving birth to innocent kids that won't be well cared for.

We should strive to get our leadership right so we can have the best hands as our leaders to make good policies that will activate our national economy.

Many Nigerian guys of marriageable age are single out of financial frustration, make a research and u will find out.

You make sense but I believe if both of you truly want to be together you can opt for registry which is very cheap,pay her bride price and get at least a room and parlor self then start your life..you can always do a lavish wedding ceremony latter.

All these clueless ladies falling for unserious guys that want to bed them in the name of "let's get to know each other"

A real man knows what he wants and when he sees it,he grabs it.

SamoaJoe:
Typical annoying response of a retardded black man! Am not saying you are retardedd.

But this is exactly how uselessly useless black African men will respond and there it ends.

A white man will study this and try to know why things behave the way they do. A white man will try to discover why the fish has blue meat instead of the conventional meat we know off. Maybe along he line, he will discover that a Volcanic eruption from mount Siberia that occurred millions of years back emptied into the Ocean and changed the fish internal colour. A retardded Muslim will see it and shout Allahu Akbar. A retardded Christian will see it and shout.... God is great!
There it ends.

That is why a mighty legendary fellow like Stephen Hawkins will die and retarrd like NwaAmaikpe will call him a vegetable. Whereas the man has made more impact in he universe than his whole generation in Abia can ever reach 0.0000000000000001 % of in a billion years.

All these vexation because I gave honour to whom is due.

See dude I understand your angle and I'm more intelligent than you can ever imagine but trust me, there is a supreme power somewhere that controls everything and since it costs me nothing to believe this postulation and indeed I call that power Jehovah.

If I die today and realize there is no GOD, I have nothing to lose buy if I live as an athiest and find out that indeed there is GOD after I die then I have everything to lose.


Think about this.

Jehovah you are great,you are mighty,you are awesome,you are mysterious...

The world tried to understand you but they failed...the more we try to reason you the more senseless it becomes cos you are far beyond human comprehension.

ALL GLORY HONOUR POWER AND MAJESTY TO YOU FOREVER AND EVER
..AMEN.

biacan:
But as an old man it's seems you have so many experience......you can apply in our organization if you don't mind

biacan:
You Don old oooo

If only you know...

TheUpsetGirl:
if we really need to talk about this, y'all can't complain about this. male virgins are really scarce these days. 70% of Nigerian males are not virgins, the rate at which these boys are becoming corrupt is unacceptable..... The Government needs to step up and enact some laws, boys promiscuity is getting out of hand something need to be done, which guys are the virgin babes like us going to marry now?

Are you a very young lady who should still be a virgin or old enough to be applauded for still being chaste?

Are you a primary,secondary or tertiary virgin?

Are you an attractive or unattractive virgin?

Well just joking but the truth is that it is the ladies who corrupt the boys cos if the girls say NO I believe guys will keep to themselves...

I was molested in my teens by ladies and all through my university days the ladies were the one offering themselves whilst I was the one running from them...I won't forget the day I entered my room just to see naked girl in my bed.

Ladies should help the young guys remain chaste by saying NO to premarital sex.

ericsmith:
you guys are just a disgrace to civilization and educational system .... reasoning like we live in the 70's ..no one even cared to find out why tillerson was sacked in the 1st place ... buhari as been president for 3yrs ..what as happened to all the other foreign delegates that visited him or is this the first time someone would visit aso rock ... FFK is just a dumbass with a kid brain.
unfortnately some of yu av accepted u donnt av brains so yu depend solely on FFk brain for reasoning.
from a rationale reasoning if buhari is the badluck what exempt nigeria from been the badluck as well.

I hereby officially declare FFK as the dumbest human to ever walk this earth and those that hold same notion with him should just go and submit themselves for mental evaluation.

What a shame and these are the youths clamoring for power.

CAPSLOCKED:
I CAN'T FORGET HOW I WAS SCARED OF GOING TO PRIMARY SCHOOL BECAUSE OF CHIAMAKA THE MUSCLE GIRL IN MY CLASS.

HAD TO BRIBE HER WITH MY LUNCHBOX MOST TIMES.

lmao!

Greene66:
He should be investigated

For those quoting me:

How can a young man make over 100million in just about 3 years or so of music career with his 30k salary. It doesn't add up. That's why he should be investigated.

Many of these boys are fraudsters behind the microphone in the name of music. Many are drug dealers behind the studio glass in the name of music. So don't pretend because you are a fan.

He should be objectively investigated

I believe it is easy to make legit money in the music industry but most of these rich musicians are either yahoo boys,drug dealers or in occultism..quote me anywhere.

RuthieKalu:
Please,let us just end it here.I'm in no mood for any religious argument.If i begin to explain the meaning of being born again,Most people would see it as a judgmental statement,in reference to charly boy.
So i choose to end it here.

Thanks for admitting that you have no clue.
