Jesus made some claims and performances you should research. Mohammed, buddha, confuscious etc never claimed to be the Son of God or the truth.

rexben:
What's religion? God never formed any religion with anybody at any point in time.
Christianity is said to be following Jesus in words only. I mean they only profess to follow Jesus but they don't obey or do what He commands.
Can you claim you follow a person when you don't do what He asks you to do?
Following Jesus is to follow in His footsteps.
If christians insist they follow anybody, they are right because they follow Paul. He is their Christ.
Paul is the Christ christians are following

quinn, I'd love you to simply try this, pick each of these beliefs, follow the tenets religiously... you'd see which one really is real! Was really hard hearted too o! But when I met Jesus, oh! It was so super obvious! And I hope you do too.. coz if you do, rather than stand puzzled at this thread, you'd only laugh and feel sorry for the numerous people still being cajoled by these atheistic views

amunekeuto:
you are welcome. this thread is not for kids poor in spirit head.

dam007:
. But quinn I suggested an option.. I'm not trying to force Mohammed or anything else on you.. I only told you what I feel would really set you into undeniable clarity as to what is and what's not.. you can't know the depth of water till you step into it.. and as to meeting Allah and his messenger Mohammed! it's still one thing I'm thankful for.. you know what it feels like, having those promised assurances come out in reality on a steady! You just try out a couple of these religions... include Islam.. in doing this.. pay full attention to whatever your chosen religion is... follow and see.. as for me, in Mohammed ! And him alone.. my everything else is found o! think quinn.. rather Than be told the experience of meeting jesus, muhammad,Buddha or whatever, why not take the plunge!? See which one you can meet!??

@Junaidinho.. I met with Tinubu some years back, I had my first degree in Accounting, my second MBA, and then have a PhD as well. I met with Tinubu and we talked, for an hour. I told him about the insecurities of the country, and all that can be done to improve the life of the commoners. All the same, I then asked if I could work at Alpha Beta, he said, no problem. He gave me his personal number, and I called several times.
It was not difficult for Tinubu to have made a call for me to get an appointment there. But what happened, he did it at his own set time, at his convenient time. So my brother, he runs the company, and he will be the one to tell me when it is right for me to work there. Just as how God created the world, he would cure who he wants to cure. You can't play smart and play God when you are human. His thoughts are not the same as ours. So if you feel you and I know it all, my brother, we know nothing. God exists, take it or leave it. Na people like una de believe juju people, but when e reach God level, una no wan hear. Oga park well. God de everywhere.

Most of the things happening now were all foretold, so it's no surprise when some people come in here to make some unnecessary argument, this life is simple, face your Atheism while I face my God. no need convincing/confusing ourselves on who is on the right track. But as long as me and my family lives We will serve the Lord.

Yes. mohammed came to abolish religion. islam is not a religion.

Religion is burdensome with blind following. For example, you must perform some ritualist activities or obligation daily. Weekly, monthly,etc. Observe moon, sun, stars, etc. Wear certain dresses that arguably were worn by the initiators of the religion. Sometimes these dress were worn because of their weather conditions. Just imagine how foolish it would be for an Eskimo to wear a flowing gown.

Religion encourages you to defend your God Yaweh just as i am doing right now or fight for him, kill for him, just like the Israelites fought and killed etc which is at variance with his avowed power to protect you.

Mujtahida:
And they keep bleating and belting out the tripe that Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with God. What is religion if not a way to relate to any of the number of gods men have set up for themselves? A Muslim relates to Allah through Islam, a Jew with Hashem through Judaism, an Hindu with Brahma through Hinduism, a Shintoist with any of the ancestral gods through shintoism. Ssssshhh! Christianity is a religion, a toxic religion and the singular evidence I'd give for this assertion is the fact that it has a book called the Bible. Pray tell me, you who say it is not a religion, do you relate with your friends, your father, your mother, brothers and sisters through a book? If it is not a religion why do you have churches, why do you have Pastors and Bishops and Teachers and Evangelist to interprete God to you through a book? Does the Sun need interpretation? If Christianity is not a religion, I dare that God who spoke in the Bible, who spoke to inanimate matter (let there be light) who spoke from the first page of the Bible to the last to speak verbally to the congregants in church so that all can hear him at once without the need for interpretation. Before you go all spiritual on me remember your God is not like the idols who have mouth but cannot speak, surely he is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. I do not ask for miracles or omens or signs and wonders. Only just this simple act: let him speak audibly and verbally. If he can give his most precious son to die for our sins then surely for him to speak to one and all should be very easy, very very easy. For the record I believe there's a God but I must admit that I do not know him. The God of the Bible is a Jewish fraud and a gross hoax. That God does not exist except in the pages of the Bible where is he very active- killing, pillaging, destroying, speaking, commanding and constantly interfering - and in the imagination of the believing brains of Christians. Go read Thomas Paine 'The Age of Reason'.

Why not pretend to believe that there is heaven? If there is you gain it, and if there is non you still has nothing to lose!

Then can you please provide an explanation to the reason why so many people that serve the same God as you..do not receive this miracles..cuz trust me there are people out there with problems much more bigger than yours that serves this God..and still languish in pain & despair..

If its the same God then..he isn't fair..and fairness should be a paramount characteristic of a being as "supreme"as him.

yes he died for the sin. That is y those who believe in him....will have everlasting life. In a future paradise where wicked ones will be no more. And there will be true lasting peace. Seriously you need to have a discussion with one of Jehovah's witnesses I know u won't regret it. All the questions you didn't get reasonable answer for from ur childhood religion and clergy man, will be shown to you from d bible. Even the most difficult question u might think is unanswerable like do God really exist?

hahn:
I know what you are thinking, "my religion is the right one!"

Well, that is what the adherents of other religions also say and there are 4,199, excluding yours, of them



As you can see, the odds are not in your favour

Let us also put into consideration that there 7 versions of hell, ie 7 religions who also have hell (aside from yours),



the odds are still not in your favor.

But there is hope!

This thread aims at helping you identify if your religion is wrong as to as ensure you make the right choice and not end up in the real hell

In no particular order, here are common signs you can use in detecting if your religion is the true one and also help you identify the true religion if you happen to come across it.

Please note that the true religion will not have any of these traits.

1) Your "holy" book has lots of contradictions: Let us assume for instance that you are about to purchase a maths textbook for your kid, or for yourself, and on the first page you see "1+1=11", wouldn't this be enough to make you feel skeptical? Now, let us further imagine that you turn to the next page and the next and the next and keep seeing contradictions, would you still buy the book and even, in obvious stupidity, go around telling people that 1+1=11?

If your "holy" book has these contradictions, it would be wise to throw it in the trash can. This is an obvious sign that your religion is false.

In order find out if your "holy" book fits into this category, it would be advisable that you read it on your own. Do not rely on heresay, your pastor, imam, holy junkie to read and interpret it on your behalf. Pick it up and read it for yourself

God will be proud of you

2) You find a hard time explaining your religion to other people: Whenever someone else asks you "why" about your religious teachings you seem to find it difficult explaining it to them. No matter how hard and long you try to explain, you always seem to end up at a dead end. Most times, your religious teachings just do not make enough sense when you try explaining it to someone else.

Honestly, if your religion was from the one true "God", it wouldn't be that difficult to explain, now would it?

Afterall, God is not one of confusion.

3) Your religion seems to be plagiarized from other older religions: This one is a hard one to notice especially if you do not have adequate knowledge of other religions. If your religion has similar stories from other older religions then your religion is obviously fake. Afterall, God doesn't copy and paste.

To verify this, you would have to read up on ancient religions and point out the similarities with yours. If there are any, your religion is false.

www.google.com is a good place to start. And it's FREE!

4) You are required to believe without evidence and only faith : So, you want to buy a house and the real estate manager tells you that the house is beautiful and gives you all the specs of the house but tells you that you cannot see the house but that all you have to do is believe the house is there and make payment for the house, will you pay?

Now, apply this analogy to your faith. If someone tells you to believe whatever it is they are talking about without any proof, my bro/sis, na bobo. Pure scam. Do not risk eternity for such vague and unverifiable promises

5) You have never seen your God: Your God seems to be invincible, no one has ever seen it, or you have to carve stones and sticks just to see it then your God is nothing but a project of someone else's imagination. As beautiful and magnificent as the sun is we all see it. If your god was so real we would see it. Trust me, god would have no reason to play hide and seek.

6) Your god's characteristics contradicts itself: Your god is omnipresent but was not there when the first sin took place to prevent it. Your god is omniscient but created the devil to deceive people knowing very well they will end up in hell eventually. Your god is all loving but threatens people to love it or face eternal torture, damnation and barbecue in hell. That is not unconditional love. To know the meaning of the word unconditional, check it yourself @ www.dictionary.com. It is free.

7) Your god needs to be worshiped: Even to the extent of threatening to burn you in hell if you don't. Seriously? God that created everything needs you, a human who happens to be infinitesimal in the grand scheme of the universe, just to feel funky? If your god is truly great, it wouldn't need to servitude and slavery. These are human cravings, not that of a supreme being.

Your god supports slavery, discrimination and genocide: Just look into your holy book. If there are pages where these things are supported then your god is actually a psychopath and if you eventually see it, take it to a psychiatric hospital

9) No one has ever seen the hell or heaven of your religion: This one is kinda tricky because every religion that has hell and heaven also have adherents who have "died" and seen these places. Christians have died and seen Jesus and Jehovah so have Muslims who have died and see Allah and their future 72 virgin wives , Buddhists too etc.

Even you can deduce that there is something fishy here. Did they really see heaven or hell or just projections of their imaginations or are they just plain old lying?

10) There is no where in your holy book where your god refers itself as the god of your people: God of the Ibos? God of the Yorubas? God of the hausas? God of Africans? Have you ever heard your god refer to itself as the god of your people?

I doubt that. It is either it is god of israel or god of arabs of god of indians etc.

If your god is like this then be certain it is not a true god because a true god will not be tribalistic or take sides. After all, it did create everyone, didn't it?

11) You do not know anyone personally that has been healed miraculously by your god: And neither have you. All the "testimonies" are always in church, mosque, radio, tv, blogs, websites but never to you or people around you. You know a crippled in your area but no pastor or imam has ever been able to heal that person just out of the goodness of their heart. Very suspicious I say

12) Your god always needs money: Your pastor says you need money to build a house for god(as if spirits need to live in houses ) or that it needs money before healing you or providing any of it's other services like granting you a job, giving you a wife/husband, kids etc. It sha needs tithes and offering EVERY TIME. I mean how hard can it be for god to make money? Didn't it create everything?

A side effect of this is that the pastors, imams and spiritual junkies who collect these tithes on behalf of your god always seem to wear the finest clothes, ride the best cars, send their kids to the best schools(which 80% of the congregation cannot afford) and enjoy all the canal things of earth while you wafait for paradise in heaven.

I will stop here for now. But these tips should be enough to guide you and help you avoid following the wrong religion, finding the right one and not ending up in hell.

the title of this threaded is quite different from the content, all I see here is reasons why Christianity is a wrong.
religion, of all the thousands of religions out there, why did you choose to make Christianity your major focus.

The thing is, there are lotta great courses out there other than Law...
