Nairalanders Good day. My Pops is a Senior Pastor in one of the Pentecostal Churches in Nigeria and has devoted his life to Church.
Ironically I don't believe in God. Never been the religious type. I See no sense that in 2022 humans still live by a book written by someone in 18BC. Doesn't make any sense to me.
Pops wishes I were religious lyk him carrying some big story book (Bible) with me about Lol.
I'm too woke for those fairy tales Sorry.
Watch my Pops dedicate his whole life to someone's business (Church) as they seriously exploit him.
I've advised him Severally but he won't listen. I Can't be like him. I'm Smart, Handsome, Rich and Non-religious. And I Will remain so.
Good luck to you. Everyone will chart his own course AND face the outcome ALONE!
You should be ready to live with that!

My Brother, being smart, rich, Handsome and all that is good but they are not what is Important.

All the riches , wealthiness and Smartness that we are or have are vanity and very useless to our Eternity.

Nothing that we own here will be taken with us to Eternity !

The Greatest and Highest Need of all Humans is Have a Genuie relationship with JESUS Christ.

My Brother This is what Really Matters. Every other thing is vanity and will fade away.

You may argue with this and call it a bluff but the day you Close your eyes in Death, or the Trumpet sounds, you will understand.

So I advise and admonish you to Follow your Dad and Submit totally to the LORDSHIP of JESUS Christ so as not to cry Had I known.


please my man most times its better to be a good listener rather than rushing to threads to post shits most times..everybody has a right to his or her belief
Please stop all these things about hell and how do yu even know that christianity is the Legit religion here. Even God will appreciate it if yu are more of a reader than trying to always judge#no go make hell Las Las oo cause e go bad

I need an honest answer why is it those who doesn't believe in God are always successful

Because people who don't believe in God are open to every suggestion and means of getting wealth, without the limitation of religious do or donts.

They trade in any business, good or bad, without moral restraints. Betting business, alcoholic beverages biz: motel, Love Machine making, prostitutes accommodation, ecstasy, mpkurumiri businesses, etcetera are all welcome to them. Therefore they prosper, because they trade in and buy anything: cheating and lying are considered by them as necessary business acumen.

In government establishments, they manipulate and steal large sums of money. Some will even build churches to scam the gullible of their hard earned cash.

But for the Godly all the above are no go areas, therefore God helps them to manage their lives until He calls them home. Though some are rich, but not stinkingly rich, except some true pastors with large congregations.

Hahaha. We should link up and have some good laugh about this

So many things dont add up about religion, note how it was based on people's knowledge, they didnt make space in the story to talk of dinosaurs or other civilizations, every religion's account of human beginning was done withz the assumption of what was known by man at the time hence the books were written by men 100 percent

If you have the opportunity, ask your pastor dad why Africans only got to know about Jesus Christ in the 18th century when the white man invaded Africa with guns and the bible. And patiently wait for his reply
Most of them making noise and shouting in church in the name of praying aren't that smart and knowledgeable to think that deep

Young man do yourself a favor and start believing that Half exist. Because honestly I can tell you he really does. It's not even an argument. I'm a living testimony. You must not be a pastor like you Dad but please submit to kingship of Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal Savior. Thanks and God bless you.

FatherOfJesus:
it took Elon Musk and Bill gate far, they are both atheists
When children think from their emotions.
You know nothing about the secret of wealth,you're here using Elon Musk and Bill to justify wealth with atheists. Go read about the men who build America by clicking on this link. https://faithandpubliclife.com/the-men-who-built-america-john-d-rockefeller-s-faith/

Ask yourself was he an atheist? What makes him excellent until this day? It's not about being rich,but impact of your richness years after years and generation to come. You'll be surprised that as far as America is concern,and those people you mentioned to be rich today,all learn from J.D Rockefeller. I'm sure you're still hearing about Rockefeller's Foundation until today? Instead of using his money to build generations to come,his master is advising him to buy twitter, go to Ukraine sponsor and fight war,and all of the spacex failures.
We have seen many billionaires came and go,but Rockefeller still in existence even after death. That's an excellent spirit of riches we're talking about. Not one of his children or groundchildren are listed in Forbes as millionaires but Billionaires. Forbes recently bring it net worth last month April 22,at 360billion,this month it's 418billion.
Someone In his time when he was alive worth 1.5% of American GDP combined. Today,do simply Google search,how much is American GDP (as of last year 2021 it was 22.99 trillion dollars),multiply that by 1.5% of Rockefeller's worth, you'll see how much he would've worth in our time (about 345 billions dollars,i.e bringing your Elon musk, Bill, Jeff Bezos CEO Amazon and top others combined not to talk about nations combined together who's GDP doesn't reach quarter of it). Wikipedia even said his personal wealth was estimated in 1913 at $900 million, which was almost 3% of the US GDP of $39.1 billion that year. ... That was his peak net worth. And the figure if we use Wikipedia today will be 3% of 22.99trillion dollars which equals approximately 690 billion dollars. Who's Elon musk?
If you use Google as your friend or Yahoo or any other search engines, you'll be told he *was and still the richest American to-date*. Don't make noise when it comes to wealth. God is supreme!

Just like the young man who has no direction still under father's prayer boast about his handsome and riches? If he'll be sincere to us, despite that,some girls still turn him down with his gay masturbation hand. Noise this or that,I don't know his location if he's still living with his father in Nigeria,but me I'm not rich as he's,but were I'm currently living outside Nigeria, I'm doing well. No noise.
And to conclude it, God is in existence,our minds,our consciousness tell us when we do good or bad. We know from birth even without being taught good is from God while evil from your father the devil. So whether you believe in God or not, when you're doing good,the spirit of God is in you,but if you're doing bad,your master the Devil is controlling you. I'm proud to be a Christian! If you need more because of time, read about Henry ford, John Wesley, etc.
Stay blessed.

both low and high, rich and poor together! My mouth shall speak wisdom; the meditation of my heart shall be understanding. I will incline my ear to a proverb; I will solve my riddle to the music of the lyre. Why should I fear in times of trouble, when the iniquity of those who cheat me surrounds me, those who trust in their wealth and boast of the abundance of their riches? Truly no man can ransom another, or give to God the price of his life, for the ransom of their life is costly and can never suffice, that he should live on forever and never see the pit. For he sees that even the wise die; the fool and the stupid alike must perish and leave their wealth to others. Their graves are their homes forever, their dwelling places to all generations, though they called lands by their own names. Man in his pomp will not remain; he is like the beasts that perish. This is the path of those who have foolish confidence; yet after them people approve of their boasts. Selah Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol; death shall be their shepherd, and the upright shall rule over them in the morning. Their form shall be consumed in Sheol, with no place to dwell.

The mere fact that the non-existence of a god cannot be proven is no sufficient reason to believe in him.


But at the same time you insist that God does not exist just because, according to your types, no one has proven His existence to you.

You can't even grasp basic logic, yet you arrogantly feel you can decipher the creator of the universe without faith. No wonder the Bible asserts that only the fool says in his heart that there is no God.

I don't believe in God too. The bible is unreliable and is like all other folktales around the world, be it the Romans, The Chinese etc the stories in the bible are similar to stories of other cultures that are even older than the bible stories.
I believe that for the fact that parts of the bible were removed, the parts that arouse curiosity, doubt and that will make alot of people to question the authenticity of the book raises alot of questions. Science has made us understand that the story of creation in the Bible is not true. Years ago people only believed that there is only heaven and earth, now we know that earth is just a tiny piece of the universe.
Years ago I used to doubt and question about alot of things I heard in churches about god. I used to believe that they were too good to be true. Then, u hear a church person tell; don't worship god with ur senses, don't question God, he is this and that, it's a sin to think , if God tells u something u do it etc it's very appalling to see people being brainwashed by a God u don't have any evidence that he exists safe from a piece of book and the orientation u have had since childhood which I acknowledge, it is very difficult for many people to change that mentality, no one wants to be seen as weird or Satanic. I encourage you my brother not to slide on ur believe but continue to pursue the truth, if there is God at the end of the tunnel, no problem. I will personally like to know the stupid and insensible god. Like if you don't believe god


For me, the truth is, many of us ( our brains �) on this planet earth is somewhat incapable of understanding the real concept of God the Creator.
