Kobojunkie: For one thing, none of us are immune to problems. Whether you're religious or not, you will face problems Another thing, God is not to blame for what evil we face. From what he wrote, it is from wicked neighbours. These things shook his beliefs in God and he is telling us. Which faithful servant of God in Bible times lived a life of roses? Mention only one. It is the stupid pastors of today in their greed and lies that tell you that Christian won't encounter problem. When we face trials, we draw close to him as the God and father of all comfort who comforts us in our trials so that with the trials we get from God, we too can comfort others (2Cor 1:3,4). Instead of him drawing closer to tap from that comfort to gain relief and joy and endurance, he thinks the best is to run away from God and be happy |

Aemmyjah:1. Jesus Christ definitely stated that there would be suffering and tribulation for those who belong to Him but He assured them that even through it all, He would provide for their needs and take care of them, so they would not need to worry as they went through those times. OP is here telling you that he is not experiencing that which Jesus Christ promised to His followers --- that provision of all of one's needs, along with the peace that is of Jesus Christ --- so surely you can see how you attempting to sweep his concerns under the rug is not of help to him in any way or form. 2. Again, Jesus Christ made clear that He had overcome the world for the sake of HIs followers instructing them there was no need for them to fear suffering and tribulation. He assured them His peace for when they would experience such things so they have no reason to engage in meaningless battles/fights as a result. So, again, as OP made clear, he is not experiencing this peace that Jesus Christ guaranteed His followers, and as such he has need to be concerned as that is indicative of the fact that he, OP, does not belong to God. It is really that simple when it comes to God. 3. This isn't a problem of some stupid pastors but a problem that stems fro the very foundation of that which OP adheres to... religion... in place of God's Word -- His teachings and commandments. So, if what OP has been filled with is not of God --- has absolutely nothing to do with God, why should he continue in it? |

Kobojunkie: Did I not read his post? You're bringing your own interpretation and I wasn't talking to you or seeking your support. Most of your posts and comments is to promote argument. I won't engage such with you |
Re: I Am Slowly Turning An Atheist by Kobojunkie: 11:03pm On Oct 31, 2022 |
Aemmyjah:1. Where is my interpretation of his post. Op clearly indicated that rather than peace of God and see his needs met, the opposite is the case. Or am I wrong? 2. The Gospel is itself a system of Logic, a set of rules/Law intended for those who are of the Kingdom 9f God to live by. So when you and I do not agree on the rule, it is reasonable to present our side in what is structured in the form of an argument, right? |

according to the so called Bible a christain must suffer but did the Bible say is forever, i mean if this suffering is forever just like our family then i am not ready to suffer forever my dad is a strong man but his strength seems like a waste |

chikishpilot:It also says that in your suffering, your needs will be catered to and you will have peace. So what you describe of your experience is nothing like what is written in scripture, it is no different from that experienced by the world in terms of suffering. |

Kobojunkie:another reason to leave i mean is he a tribalist or racist why allow our enemies suffer us, why allow us die in hunger and suffering seems he chooses whom to love |
Re: I Am Slowly Turning An Atheist by Kobojunkie: 11:40pm On Oct 31, 2022 |
chikishpilot:Religion has nothing to do with God. What you are experiencing is completely different from what Jesus Christ taught that His followers will experience. 25 “So I tell you, don’t worry about the things you need to live—what you will eat, drink, or wear. Life is more important than food, and the body is more important than what you put on it.So clearly, what you and your old man are experiencing has nothing to do with God and His plan for His followers. I know we don't like to think these things are really this simple but it is after all the Truth of God, and so logically if what you experience is nothing like what is expected, it cannot be confused in anyway with the expected. |

chikishpilot:God is a King. He does not give account of His matters. Striving against Him is a waste of time (Job 33:13) Your job is to learn His modus operandi and fall in line. You and your father respectfully have been playing religion. What you should do is to learn the ways of God and the laws that govern the cosmos and begin to apply them. Throwing tantrums about the existence of God will not change anything. You are not the first and won't be the last. Many people have threatened God that they will commit suicide if He did not act on their matter. He didn't. They committed suicide and God still remained God. If traditionalists are dealing with you and your father, it points to a lack of understanding of spiritual warfare and priesthood. Activate your priesthood and watch those people scamper like rats. It's knowledge. Through knowledge will the just be delivered (Proverbs 11:9) You and your dad can gain spiritual intelligence and begin your journey to the victory that Christ already won on the cross by listening to the following messages by Apostle Joshua Selman. Priesthood The mystery of divine intervention Complete deliverance (1-3) Spiritual Intelligence (1-3) Mysteries of the kingdom |

AstraDroid:I've always thought you are an atheist. I believe there's God too but he has created all human kind needs on earth but we still continue to bother him. Give sacrificially and you will surely gets more in return. The farmer has to sacrifice some of his food and keep in the ground to collect hundredfold. Put in the effort and grow a positive mindset and you shall see a positive result. Because of the vibe we walk on in this earthly dimensions. Your thoughts are energy that could manifest into physical realm so make it positive energy. |

chikishpilot: Just get hold of urself.. There is no guarantee of success when u leave religion either. Life is generally hard and there is no sky daddy out there to help. U will just have to role ur own wheel to u either makenit or tire out. Successful people are strategic, dogmatic and deliberate. Plan, have a direction and work towards it. Do not be discouraged by dissapointments, learn a skill and constantly think of improving urself. Ensure u are better today than yesterday, even knowledge wise. As for God, forget about it.

Re: I Am Slowly Turning An Atheist by MaxInDHouse(m): 7:34am On Nov 01, 2022 |
Aemmyjah: One fact most people do miss is that we are all born atheists at birth that's why God ordered His people (Israelites) to study really hard that they may know His ways and afterwards inculcate in our children the same thing we know so as to make it easier for them! Deuteronomy 6:4-7 Satan established countless religions globally to counter pure worship so while the Israelites are teaching their children God's standard the surrounding nations are filled with practices of satanism hence many Israelites were lured into false religious ideas. So if anyone say he or she is turning to atheism such a person is simply returning to his root: when he hasn't been taught anything about the existence of God. But then the atheists will now fill his or her heart with junks all in the name of knowledge that's of no practical benefits whereas knowledge supposed to help the human society enjoy peaceful coexistence and that's what atheism can never produce because they will still fall (die) for the wisdom they ignore when God said the tree of knowledge of good and evil will lead to death {Genesis 2:17} to atheists this book makes no practical sense yet the tree of knowledge of good and evil (POLITICS) will always catch up with their intelligence making them slaughter one another purposely!

fattprince: There numerous Gods as there as numerous mankind archetypes. And the gods are too busy to care if you eat, bath or fucckk. It is black magic to worship anything even the Gods. Material life is our business and without working hard the Gods despise laziness and don't care if you have no survival skills. Man must work for food and then blessings follow.

chikishpilot: Do not listen to that fool, that’s how they keep lying that a better day will come. It’s sad to hear about your dad, he probably has a health condition that’s why he always sick, plus the stress of being broke. The best thing you can do for yourself now is to forget religion and the current situation at hand, and ask yourself what you really want for yourself, do you want to keep hoping on god like your father you learn a trade, a skill or even further your education(if you can). The only problem here is really cause you guys are broke, don’t let anyone deceive that God will come and solve your problems, be humble and good people will favor you. 1 Like |

God is their alter ego. Its what they wish to be but their mind project it to an external none existent being. Its a human thing. Wonder why they get angry when u dont believe? Its actually an anger for not believing in them and their wish. Its all about them but the idea of God makes it easy for them not to see it like that. Thats why they pray and decide the answer. They sing holy song and enjoy it, they listen and hear themselves (their heart). .. Everything they believe ends up with them. If singing praise worship makes u dance, how then do u feel its God dancing if u are not the God u believe in? |

frank317:I am a follower of Jesus Christ and I advocate that Op completely abandon religion, not by mouth alone, but empty himself of every religious lie he has ever been fed about the entity referred to as God from both his parents and every other individual- mog or pastor out there. It is so he can move forward with a clean slate, and not end up one of the many bitter individuals out there flying the "I am an atheist" flag. OP, should you decide much later to seek God, do not seek Him through the mouths of men by directly next time. Then when He responds, you will be certain you are connected to Him and not to religion of men. |
