The Bible! The ONLY standard for Truth! All other religious texts that predates it are invalid and lacking in spiritual edification. If you are against its teachings then you are doomed. Ride on Christian Crusaders! 3 Likes |

shdemidemi: Your problem, my brother from another mother, is that your head is perpetually bowed into that book called the Bible. Look up from it for once and consider the evidence around you. Isn't it insane to continuously cite your references from one book as evidence for Truth? Quote from other sources as well. Even your Bible says: "Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses." |

frosbel: My ancestors may not have had any written tradition but as far as I know they had oral tradition. God also used my African ancestors to teach his ways. Why then should I use a Jewish themed religious text as the standard for God's Word? Doing that amounts to inferiority complex on my part and rejecting the fact that God had dealings with my people documented or not. 2 Likes |

frosbel: Brother frosbel, Dis ya belief come get K-leg. Your belief is inconsistent with what the Bible says: "You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews." John 4:22 NIV Na Oga Jesus of Nazareth wey talk dis one. Na Jews get salvation. Na Jews get God. This, my friend, is the problem of Religion. 1 Like |

PAGAN9JA: OP return to the faith of your ancestors. GBAMOCHI!!! Hear the Apostle Paul speaking at his trial before Felix: "However, I admit that I worship the God of our ancestors as a follower of the Way, which they call a sect." ~ Acts 24:14 So make I leave the God of my ancestors come go carry one wey I nor sabi at all?

frosbel: Quoting what God said through JEWS and upholding that as the standard for Divine Revelation Why don't you quote what God said through your African ancestors. Were there no prophets in Africa whom God spoke through? Better still, give us more quotations of what God said through other races. 3 Likes |
Religion / Re: Is God The Enemy Of Logic by nep2ra(m): 10:09pm On Jul 23, 2014 |
Call it naivety, call it ignorance or just plain silliness. We often fail to realize the dynamics behind religion. Religion is about CONTROL. Plain and Simple! The dominant religion gets all the perks associated with that position while the less dominant religion bides its time. Religion and politics go hand in hand. Where a particular religion garners great followership, like ants to sugar, it attracts powerful personalities and interests. Religion is mind programming. It programs its adherents to act in predetermined ways. If you are a follower of any religion, then you are stuck in the Matrix. 1 Like |

shdemidemi: Ehen! Na now you come dey talk! I have news for you sir: Islam is the ONLY and TRUE way to God. Hinduism is the ONLY and TRUE way to God. Zoroastrianism is the ONLY and TRUE way to God. {Add other ancient monotheistic religions here} How do I know? Because their religious texts say so. Settled. 1 Like |

shdemidemi: [b]The bold text is the cause of all the problems associated with religion. *le sigh* So na your way come be the Truth? Na so all Muslims go dey argue say dia way na the truth. The same way all other religions go dey claim confirm. I run into Mormon missionaries from time to time and what they preach always evokes a smile and quizzical looks from me like "What stuff are you guys smoking?" "You really want me to believe this shoit (excuse my French) and ACCEPT it as Truth." You gotta see how they passionately preach their message. Sometimes when I want some comic relief, I open a passage from The Book of Mormon. It never disappoints. My brother, shdemidemi, what you call Truth is to a very large extent subjective. There are many 'Truths' out there. It is only a matter of which resonates most within your heart. Throughout history, men have reached epiphany and many more will reach that state and try to pass it off as the Truth. So, in the quest for 'Truth', keep an open mind. [/b] |

shdemidemi: I don't think I chose christianity cos i was born into a christian family..... if anything, being from a christian family was one thing i hated the most, growing up. Although, I won't deny the influence my family had on me which raised the quest and hunger to know what the fuss was all about. ...and this is how you found your personal enlightenment. Other people can tell more inspiring stories of what made them choose their path. I have a female Latvian friend who never believed in the concept of 'God' or the need to. A former boyfriend tried to convert her to Christianity but she didn't feel at ease with Christianity. Now she claims to have found peace in Islam and wholeheartedly worships Allah which such admirable fervor. She would defend Islam as being the only true Religion and tell anyone who cares to listen that her way is the right way to God. This is the path she chose. You can't tell me there is no substance to her belief. 1 Like |

shdemidemi: ^^ thanks for the response bro [b] You are very much welcome brother. What I am saying is that since I believe there is a/there are Higher Power(s), then I proceed to communicate with this Higher Power(s) in a way that I find suitable. The highlighted is what causes religious bickering and chaos. Most religions lay claim to the True God and in doing so, rubbish the claims of other religions. I assume you believe your way (Christianity) is the only way to the True God. 1 Like |
Religion / Re: Will God's Chosen People Do This ? ( Graphic ) by nep2ra(m): 2:18pm On Jul 23, 2014 |
shdemidemi: Thank you for your question. I do not subscribe to any particular 'God'. When I look at the wonders of the Universe and everything around me, I believe there is a Supreme Being(s) behind everything. The Universe(including parallel universes, if they exist) did not come about on its own. SomeThing or Someone would have caused it/them to be. This is the beginning of my quest into reaching out to a Higher One. It is a disastrous mistake to look up religious texts, however ancient, to seek for Truth because Man's attempt to understand and explain the Unknown only leads to the religious chaos we see today. If God exists (which I believe He/She does), then reaching out to Him/Her shouldn't be difficult. If He/She made created me and all that we see around, why should it be difficult for Him/Her to respond to my search for Truth without going through any religious intermediary? 3 Likes |
Religion / Re: Will God's Chosen People Do This ? ( Graphic ) by nep2ra(m): 1:40pm On Jul 23, 2014 |
This is where the world's major religions get it wrong. The 'God' that exists is not the exclusive reserve of one race or people. This is the root of the religious problems we face. There is no Jewish God, Arab God, Hindu God e.t.c My refusal to NEVER lay claim to a Jewish 'God' or be connected to a Jewish heritage is what made me drop Christianity.

Religion / Re: Nigerian Pastors Let my people be free by nep2ra(m): 12:44pm On Jul 22, 2014 |
Unfortunately, Nigerian Christians will NEVER be free until we demand a government that is truly alive to its responsibilities as obtained in developed secular nations. The pseudo-religiosity of Nigerians is due to the harsh economic climate. Poverty and a low standard of living has driven them to seek solace in the 'comforting' doctrine of these rogues. When you find yourself in a situation like ours, it's very easy to believe a Sky-Daddy has the answer to all your problems. You fail to use the intellect 'God' has given you to improve your lot and the lot of your people. The very day our economy develops and government runs as obtained in First World countries then shall we see who truly serves God. 1 Like |

veecovee: sorry i m a business and instead of paying less than 1/10, i prefare paying more. My dear, the blessings that follows me now is unusual. I used to struggle for conection those days but now they come on their own. Your motive for tithing is acquisition of material blessings (possessions) and greed. Pure and simple! It just shows you have turned [the image of] God into a money doubler. Tithing is as practiced in most churches today is not scriptural. There is nothing to back up the practise of this abominable act. Too many churches and mosques in Nigeria yet wickedness is the order of the day. Says a lot, doesn't it? 1 Like |
