With that said, no one truly knows what happens after you die, that's what faith is about. I think you should live as if God exists because that will lead you to living a better life

Righteousness2:
If Whatever you desire to be is in Isolation of JESUS CHRIST, forget about it. It will land you in Hell fire.

If JESUS CHRIST is not the Foundation of Whatever you wanna be, you are Heading for Destruction.

Aunty, rest abeg .....

Yes, yes & hell yes....

Spirituality is one thing and religiousity stands apart both aren't the same but there is no way you can become God's friends without being religious because God has a purpose which His worshipers must fulfill anyone who is no part of those fulfilling it has no future before the true God.

So what is spirituality?
Spirituality is having a dealing with one or more spirits for a reason best known to you.

What is religiousity?
Religiousity is working towards a goal along with fellow believers as the God (supreme being) instructs all His worshipers.

Satan and his demons have misconstrued the two making those lacking knowledge to think it's about the same thing whereas a spiritual person can be likened to one who strives to have a close relationship with a King such a person may be deceived into thinking he or she is dealing with the real King but how can you have a close relationship with a King whose purpose you don't know?
Surely anybody claiming to be a King but has no plans to establish his kingdom and ensure there is peace and security is FAKE.
You can only have a close relationship with the king when you're among those working zealously to expand his domain as you work industriously with other faithful subjects who have hope in the objectives of that King.

So any spiritualists who is not affiliated to any religion is dealing with DEMONS and not the true God!

yeah

It's just good that you're thinking and asking questions about these things. Just some people just go ahead and accept wholeheartedly the religion they were born into.

My friend, keep on asking the "what if " questions?

Ask yourself
What if Islam is after all the right religion and others are wrong?

What if Christianity is the right religion and others are wrong?

What if it is Buddhism that is right and others are wrong and you're practicing the wrong religion?

What if the god you were introduced to, the one you know and worship in the religion of your parents is not the true God you think you're worshipping?

What if the true God cannot order anyone to kill kids as the bible god did in Numbers 31 ?

What if the true God is not the god that is worshipped in Islam that encourages muslims to linch peoplewho speak against his prophets?

What if the hell in the Quran and Bible and in other religions doesn't exist?

What if the hell in the Quran and Bible and in other religions do not exist?

What if the hell in the Quran and Bible and in other religious text is just to use "fear" to scare you into practicing their religion?

What if the heaven in the Quran and Bible and in other religions do not exist?

What if the heaven in the Quran and Bible and in other religious text is just to use "Greed" to entice you into practicing their religion?

Infact, why are the descriptions of the heaven in the Quran and Bible and in other religions different ?

Are there different heavens and hells for different religions?

Why do Christians and Muslims call their gods all-sufficient god and still tell you their gods needs money?

Why does the Christian god need 10% and the Muslim god needs 2.5% of your money if they are truly "all-sufficient " ?

Just keep asking yourself these questions. You will soon know and see what organized religions truly are.

Spirituality and Religion are two parallel lines...!!

Religion is man made for money and control.


Spirituality exposes your soul to the other side and help you grow to attain knowledge and how to maintain a healthy life style and deal with situations.

Spirituality has no limit and no boundaries and the experience is unique and satisfying...!!

Spirituality is simply an unending journey into knowledge about life and it existence.

The first question you would need to answer is what is the identity of the deity or God you seek. If you are looking for the god of your pastors, imams, popes, GBs, bishops, etc., you can't find them outside of the religious space since they are all defined within religious space. If you are looking for a God beyond that, then you look outside of the religious space for the particular God.

You mean what religious faith is about, right?

Nna, OP asked if spirituality can exist outside of religion but clearly, you don't think so. Seems, to you, Spirituality begins and ends in one religion or another.

As for the issue of the true God, who is the True God...how do you identify the True God from all the thousands of non-True ones out there...what if not everyone can have access to the True God... what if no religion can not grant any man access to the True God... what if the True God did indeed command His people's armies to eliminate their enemies.... what if...

Life and living has shown that creations do not die until their Creators kills them. And the bible and life shows that what we call death is "sleep mode"

So, we know what happens after doing what we call death!

Religion means a pursuit or interest followed with great devotion

So if you take spirituality seriously, then you are in religion already.

And this is what proves that you devils are very very stupid.!

For how much "what if" is required to know whether a fork is a good tool to use to fill a bucket of water?

An identity of love, goodness, beautiful eternity and not tied to a certain group of overzealous followers.

I know God exist cause I exist.

So, you assume he exists because you exist. And when you cease to exist, what then? This entity also ceases?

Anyways, when you go looking for someone, you have to at least be certain of his/her identity or you end up falling into the hands of the many frauds out there. The description you gave of the God you seek is quite vague. I would recommend you do a lot more of your homework in narrowing down his identity before you go seeking, otherwise, you might end up with what you never bargained for.
