Ihedinobi3: I really wish there are more teachers. Knowledgeable ones, just like the Apostles, the very first Christians. ![]() A lot of doubts, disbeliefs, questions and misconceptions will be cleared if there are more passionate preachers who really understands the Bible... |

Submit ur will to ur creator not Jesus or any pagan idea. Pray directly to ur God He will answer you. Nobody other than God that knows ur condition and can solve all ur worries. Do not pray to Jesus but respect him because he was messenger like moses, Abraham, Muhammad (Peace be upon them). 1 Like |

Magnoliaa:All any given believer needs is one truly gifted and prepared pastor-teacher, not many. But I do understand your pain. It took many years before I was able to find one myself. But sometimes, this is a test from the Lord to prove your heart. How much we want the Truth is demonstrated by how willing we are to search for it and wait for it until we find it. There have never been many pastor-teachers in the Church. That gift is the rarest one in the Church, but there has never been a believer who wanted the Truth who did not end up getting it. So, as much as it may be sad that truly gifted and prepared men are so few and far between, we can rejoice in the confidence that the Lord looks out for all His sheep, every single one. I highly recommend Professor Robert Luginbill at https://ichthys.com from whom I have learned and under whom I am training to become a full-fledged pastor-teacher. If you prefer videos, you will find Pastor-Teacher Curtis Omo at www.bibleacademyonline.com a solid help for spiritual growth. These are two gifted and incredibly well-prepared teachers that you can learn the Bible systematically from. The first has been in ministry for about forty years now and is very well-established in the Truth. As I said, one is enough for you. In fact, more than one is harmful to a believer unless they are spiritually mature, and if they are, the excess is redundant. Nobody who seeks and keeps seeking, who asks and keeps asking, who knocks and keeps knocking ever goes without a favorable answer. So, I wouldn't worry about other believers if you yourself have gained access to a good teacher. Not many even want that access in the first place. |

theumpteenth: ================================ There is no real hope of salvation outside of truly being born again by the operation of the Lord Jesus Christ - "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12 Keep the faith, and your profession of the Lord Jesus Christ, if you do! "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." -Galatians 6:9 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." - 2 Timothy 1:7 Peace and blessings! ++++++++ "For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” - Romans 10:12-14 |

Ihedinobi3: Magnoliaa:"Look, the days are coming--this is the declaration of the Lord GOD--when I will send a famine through the land: not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD" - Amos 8:11 "He said to me, "And now, Daniel, close the book and put a seal on it until the end of the world. Meanwhile, many people will waste their efforts trying to understand what is happening. (i.e. many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased)" - Daniel 12:4 Even if you know a thousand and one things, ask the man/woman, who knows the one thing you don't know about, then that person can open the door, and its up to you to decide if you must enter and to enter, by yourself, you must. Close your mind, then the door will shut and nothing will be gained. Unless one asks the questions, answers will not come, Consider seriously and answers,serious answers will come. Most of our thoughts are pointless because they lack any real foundation. If you want to gain wisdom you need to let go of everything you now believe, because they mostly are all foundationless The Bible says, famine in the end times won't be for food but for the truth, of hearing the words of the LORD. It also, as can be seen in Daniel 12:4 reproduced above, said that knowledge would increase. Having knowledge (i.e. Gnosticism) is not necessarily having truth. You can have much knowledge, but they'll be truth diluted with lies, as people are more susceptible to prettier, neatly wrapped up lies than the truth. Truth never decreases by being shared, but truth has become something unimportant and falsehood, for means sake, instead reigns supreme. As you know Magnoliaa, we have all inherited and propagated lies, perhaps innocently, but lies none the less, as the needle of truth, is often hidden in haystack of lies, it'll take real eyes to see the truth, after as a matter of fact, of becoming fully aware of the lies. |

And the list goes on and on... Christians are frustrated people who only stick to nonsensical believes because of fear... Fear of Hell. If not why will someone spend endless years worshiping a God that never speaks or even answers prayer... You pray for money... U work hard for it U give praise to a supposedly existent God... Na only u go de feel the music You pray to God... Na only u go tell urself that he has answered You pray for work... U still hustle to get job with unbelievers Yet people beg u to continue doing useless things to a being that never responds... Telling u one day u will get ur answer. Quick one... Can any one tell me why gamblers are addicted to gambling? Answer... Because they don't know when they will be rewarded. This is same reason why Christian are stuck to their God? They really don't know when he will reward them. All na mind game 1 Like |

frank317:Don't gamble with the future, play it safely, don't call it a bluff. It'll be a win win situation, because if there is eternal life, then you win if you've bet on it. If there apparently is no eternal life, you don't lose anything even if you did bet on it, but if you didn't bet at all, on it and there is eternal life, then you're toast and fairked. Ouch and there'll be gnashing of teeth etcetera, sorry. |
Re: I'm Tired Of Being A Christian by frank317: 11:28am On Jul 23, 2019 |
MuttleyLaff: I still have nothing to lose if I don't gamble... Now u are talking about gambling, u and I obviously don't know anything about after life. Hope u know u could also end up in Allah's hell |

theumpteenth: Maybe you weren't taught the truth about REALITY in Christianity! First of all know that God will NOT speak with anyone for any reason whatsoever this time around! HE has finished talking after saying "NO more, NO less" Revelations 22:18,19 Secondly know that God will not show favoritism towards anyone regarding the desires of their hearts because they are mostly based on material things! Matthew 5:45 Thirdly know that God don't speak to anyone through anyone except you study the Bible to know God's future plans for obedient mankind! Malachi 3:16, Matthew 28:19,20 Whoever is not aware of any of these three facts will end up becoming an atheist! |

theumpteenth:If you are concerned about your salvation, none of the above stated can get to heaven. Salvation is a gift which a person either recieve or reject. Not one human being is perfect in the whole world. To be saved means that you have your name written in the Register of Heaven (Book of Life) and you have the Matriculation number of heaven. Eph 2:8-10: "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." If you have any questions,pls feel free to ask. Shalom |
