haffaze777:
not praying for bad thing but evangelizing by cooking up story which Christian are known for

Jagoon:
Thanx for sharing this, a cousin of mine had similar spiritual attacks orchestrated by her muslim parents when she converted to christianity but despite all she went through her seven other siblings all converted to christianity under various circumstances to the frustration of her muslim parents. May God's name be praised.

haffaze777:
waow what's d title of dat movie?it must be very interesting so I need to buy n watch it

johnydon22:
Hahahahaha i will take that as a compliment from a hurt ego and out of sentimental tilt . . . Understandable

Jagoon:
Can you let us have your dad's story on the decision?

johnydon22:
Hahahahahaha abi?

I agree with you tho, in life we can only keep learning. If you stop learning you start dying. So learning is rather good than bad in this case.

A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful enquiry that can establish truths of great value

You need to wake up from your dream, homeboy. You are wallowing in madness.

Weah96:
You said most atheists are directed by evil spirits to criticize the deaf and dumb figment of your imagination. Who is directing her to criticize Allah and the Quran? She speaks and writes about no other God but Allah. Allah must be the true God. F#cking r#tard.

Weah96:
Your brain doesn't put two and two together very well. Have you ever heard Ayaan Hirsi Ali talk about the bible or the imaginary Christian God? No. She attacks Allah, the imams, and Islam. Why is that? Is the evil spirit directing her to criticize Islam and Allah too?

Weah96:
How am I an anti theist if I believe in the one true God, MYSELF? I will raise myself up when I die, even though you'll probably be somewhere stuck in a dream. As usual.

Keep walking around thinking that everyone here on NAIRALAND is in YOUR dream. Ha-ha-ha

Esdb3:
A lukewarm person and last time I checked it is clear in the bible that God hates lukewarm folks who are neither hot nor cold. Who aint sure they are for God or the world.

Thoniameek:
Bro, I've been there before

Here was what I did

* I stopped attending church, all churches (by churches I mean denominations), but once in a while I attented scriptures Union, which is nondenominational fellowship

* I bought for myself three bibles,,,,,,king James version, Goodnews and new international version. I read for myself the entire bible in a year and dwelled more on the book of Romans, John, the Corinthians, Ephesians

* I surfed the internet asking questions, Google for instance and YouTube, on YouTube you can subscribe to Jefferson Bethke or follow him on Facebook

* If you're not too scared, read some articles written by atheist, gave me hope. Spend time on their blogs (not the ones on nairaland, them be learners, especially davien) foreign ones

* Follow what you've believed, no matter what anyone tells you,,,,,,,,,,,,, that's if you're not already an atheist by then

Jesus loves you......

My people,

Those who often support the argument that God dos not exists usually are of the class of those who cannot control their lust and do without a sinful and shameful livs. So all they try to do is counter every proposition that seems to portray their unholy behaviour in bad light.

Another set simply try to hold on to the flimsy straw of logic that says because they can see him, they cant explain him. The same set of people, especially those who are science-orinted try to bring up all sorts of crappy theories that the same science itself has countered and rendered invalid to prove that their is no God. Some say proteins built up and overtime like say billions of years to become an organic broth. Yet thy cant create a single cell which contains hundreds of amino-acids which can only be joined together in a living organisms.

It is imperative to say here that it is impossibl for the intelligent things we see around us like the eyes, even the simplest of all, a single cell to be formed by accident. Miller tried it in his expriment to create the basic component, amino acids but failed as th various amino acids formed could not even bond together to form a cell.

You cant contain what is beyond you and that is the weakness that they (atheists and their apologists) have. Christians know Jesus, they see him work daily in their midst and lives. They know him and relate with him. It seems very esotric yet, it is very simple when we submit our intellect to him.

Seek him and you shall find him.

one needs not to argue or batter words with infidel, remember it is written in the bible that we should desist from vain arguments. what we should pray for is the holyspirit to reveal himself to her like what happened to Saul of Tarmars who we now call Paul.

Infidel my dear, never mind i believe several questions would have gone through ur mind about ur existence. do me a favour go through the history of mankind in the Bible and also the scientifical explanation for mankind's evolution u will find out there is a gap.

when u do what i have just said i want u to share ur discovery with me. i believe God has a something in store for YOU. STAY BLESSED.

OlukunleJ:
Infidel,
Am so happy that you are giving your best to what you believe in. That paints an illustration that you are very loyal to your believe. Now i want us on a more serious note to talk like people who are reasonable. There is no point arguing or throwing abuses. I have a question for you Infidel, : Can you pls explain to us how you came to this world and how the person you came through joined the race of life also? Pls tell us how your Great grand fathers came in to the world that is if you were alife. Pls also lets us know if your way of thinking is as a result of your menthors touch on you or you have the personal drive from the day you came out of your mums birth canal of course i know you won't even know anything about life then. Now this issue is a very small issue to tackle we will get to the root of it. if you so wish. Thanks

hifaif:
If it was spiritual, why did the devil have to take him to the mountain? You guys are so confused that you don't even know when your bible is being spiritual or physical or symbolic or proverbial or metaphorical.

What would have happened if Jesus had jumped from the temple? Angels to stop him from dashing his feet against stones would have been what exactly? Physical or spiritual? And the stones would have been what? What if he had dashed his feet against stones, his injuries would have been physical or spiritual?

Listen, bro, you might as well tell us that the death of Jesus on the cross was spiritual and all the actors, including Pontius Pilate, were spiritual.

hifaif:
Face the topic.

BossTtdiamonds:
Believe me, you really can't understand the things of the Lord.. Here's to further complicate issues for you, but if you're smart you'd see the truth beyond my Deception..

In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Isiah Ch 6:1 (ESV)

Then John says
No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.John Ch 1:18 (ESV)

I'd expect your smart ass to decipher the Trivia above, that's if you are really smart..

Weah96:
Shut up! Prove to me that you don't worship a w)hore? Better yet, prove to me that your God is not the feces I left in the toilet earlier. Do you have the proof that you don't offer prayers to my feces?

This is beyond proving anything, you've turned into a troll. You want me to prove that I'm not dreaming. I've already proven to you that I am a human being or an A.I but in your solipsist head, only nonsense matters.
Imagine what your brothers must be going through, seeing you breakdance here. You alone will be responsible for some converts to atheism with your "prove to me that you are not dreaming" BS.

The man gave you the power to move mountains with your mouth, I don't see any mountains moving, and yet you bring your shameless behind here to ask me for proof that I'm not on Nairaland in a dream. Are you here in a dream?

The OP mentioned Christianity not Religion.

Jesus is the Power of God to Salvation.

Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ:
for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;
to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Christianity is the only way to get salvation from your sins,
So the following of Jesus Christ is Christianity, to get your salvation.


Salvation is the remission of our sins.

Now those religions where they blow people up and those that worship man made statues are religions,
all profitable for nothing.

To show you how different Jesus Christ is, the year we are in is the year 2015 AD
The AD means After the Death of Jesus.
And History uses the birth of Jesus as a milestone for time too.
215 BC, Before Christ.

NO OTHER PERSON IS USED AS A MILESTONE.

THAT SHOWS YOU THE SUPERIORITY OF JESUS CHRIST OVER ALL.[/size]

Weah96:
Listen man, your argument essentially boils down to "show me that you're not dreaming," which is essentially the silliest thing I've ever read on here. I take it that you're either trolling or have officially conceded that you have no case.

italo:
The man was an Atheist, his Govt was Atheistic, he/his govt killed millions to suppress religion and advance atheism in the country and beyond...and he/his govt justified the killings.

End of story.

IamLEGEND1:
i'm not sure u understand the difference between the narration of ancient cultures and doctrines.

the bible digressed the customs of the jews and other civilisations, revealing them to have a lower regard for women than men.

the doctrines state clearly a woman is to be treated as an equal.
scratch that, they are to be treated as "the weaker vessel", in other words with more care and understanding.

#TryAndUnderstandStuff

marcondo13:
@ italo, you are a good example of what the OP was talking about! I am a practicing Christian but I kick against man made dogma. Even Saint Paul talked about the doctrines of man.
Because you are a Catholic, does that mean that you will turn a blind eye to the excesses of the Church, and pass it off as individual errors? Even Pope John Paul apologised to the world, the jews, gypsies, moriscos for their persecution by the Catholic Church in 2000,during the Jubilee service. Abi you want to deny it? Google is there for all.
As for Science, I pity you and other brain washed Africans who believe the bullshit taught in school. I learnt the philosophy of Science at the University and everything was about the Greeks, and little about the Egyptians.
Was is it the Catholic church that built the libraries of Timbuktu and Alexandria ? When the Sumerians invented the wheels and alphabeths, Abraham was not even born! When the Mayans were cauterising wounds and carrying out bone transplant and other advanced surgical operations, the Early Church were hiding in the Catacombs of Rome. Perhaps, you have not heard of the Dogon civilization of Mali . They predicted astronomical phenomena and did calculations with pin point accuracy, years before Galileo was born! Na the Church teach the Babylonians about the rings of Saturn, thousands of years before the telescope was invented? There is over a million year old nuclear rector in Africa, who built it?
The Church has always kicked against scientific discoveries that exposed the fallacies of several doctrines of man . Why did fight against Galileo and Copernicus when the book of Job said that God is sitting on the circle of the earth and that He hang the earth on nothing? Blood circulation is in the Bible but did the Church support Harvey? NO!
We are told that Hippocrates is the Father of medicine, but, his ideas were based on the teaching and research of Imhotep, an Egyptian priest! Has the Church ever come out to correct that error since there are veritable records in the Vatican archives? How can a dirty Idol worshiping Black man be named the Father of Modern Medicine? Impossible! Rather, his name was further blackened in the movie trilogy, "The Mummy", as a flesh eating priest! They were more concerned with the Da Vinci code!
The Arabs have been enslaving blacks for centuries, but the Catholic Church perfected the act of modern slaves trade. It was a Catholic priest, who suggested that Africans should be brought to the New World ( North America and the Carribeans) because the natives were been exterminated! Wikipaedia is your friend. History is full of the excesses of the Church since the days that the Florentine State Secretary, Niccolo Machiavelli wrote his master piece, the Prince, which he modelled on Cesare Borgia, the son of a supposedly celibate Pope!
I don't want to talk about the events around the collaboration with the Nazis and the Mussolini gang during WWII. It is an open secret. Pope John Paul has said it all. Perhaps, you have not read the recent Wiki leaks about the Saudi Government 's cables to the Vatican about the Syrian Govt, with regards to ISIS!
When the Archbishop of Canterbury decided on ordaining gay priests, the Nigerian Anglican Prelate rallied the Church worldwide and stoop up against him! What happened when the butler to the last Pope was jailed for released documents showing massive frauds, nepotism and contract racketeering among top Cardinals in the Vatican, did the Nigerian arm of the Catholic Church say a word? Nope! They were more interested in tearing down CAN because Cardinal Onaiyekan lost the Presidential elections. He simply lost because the Nigerian Christian house is tired of his pro - Northern establishment stance and continued ass licking of the Sultan in the face of continued massacre of Christians in the North! He just could not stop talking about his time with Sir Ahmadu Bello, fiddling while Borno was on fire!
Juvenal once rightly quipped "it was fear that first created the gods". We have stopped reading and that is the reason why the African people is backward! If not, How can an educated man believe that killing a fellow human is a short cut to Paradise, or donating all your financial resources to the Church will invoke God's blessings, when the person in question, is corrupt?
Until the day that the African people, and Nigerians in particular, really sit up and search the Scriptures or other Holy books, and compare it to what they are told, we will never be free intellectually!
