There is no perfect denomination, but I know Christianity is acceptable unto God through personal experience. If a person pray a sincere prayer with all his/her heart asking God for forgiveness of his/her sins( which is starting point of man's relationship with God), through the name of Jesus Christ, God will hear from heaven and answer the prayer by giving you a joy in your heart and his spirit will confirm to your spirit that you are now born again. You will be as sure in your heart as when you see light and and identify the difference between darkness and light. This is different from the mental acceptance of Christ which many carry about in this generation. It is experiential!, It is real! and It is sure. Enter into you room today, speak to God one on one accepting you are a sinner and from the depth of your heart confess and forsake. You will have testimony and you will declare it loud and clear |

Ichiato:What is the percentage of those who convert? How many can even sustain the thought of converting. We can conduct a survey here on NL and ask adherents of each religion if they can convert to a rival religion or any religion for that matter for any reason. We can even go further to ask if they can ever leave their present sect for another e.g Catholic to Pentecostal or Sunni to Shi'a. The overwhelming response would be "NO".Why? Because each adherent feels absolutely confident that he's in the right. Infact, in recent times, more Muslims and Christians are deconverting and becoming nonbelievers than they are converting to the other's religion. You imply that there are many other possible reasons apart from indoctrination why one might adhere to one religion over others, please let me know these "many possible reasons". The fact remains that the vast majority of religious adherents believe what they believe simply because they were raised in such belief systems. Anybody who disagrees is simply being dishonest and is a perfect epitome of indoctrination himself. 2 Likes |

Paul said JESUS is the Head of the Church. All the Churches that preach JESUS as Son of GOD, as saviour of the world and relentlessly preach purity/holiness r all members of the same body; the body of Christ. As hand, neck, legs etc. have individual specific functions. [b] So, all denominations have their specialization. I still see Deeper Life as the Neck, etc.. If u r finding it difficult to be perpetually holy, join Deeper Life and humble ur haughty heart to listen attentively to the Man of GOD for 6months, u shall develop a strong hatered for sin and the likes. If u've fulfilled ur destiny/ made it big, join Redeemed; they specialize in praising n thanking GOD. If u r suffering from pathilogical Chronic poverty, join Winners' Chapel. If u have serious battles of Life to fight or u r being opperessed by merciless demons, Join Mountain of Fire and Miracles (provided u do the 3 days dry fasting with unmitigated faith and pray) u shall disgrace the demons and have ur permanent victory but u MUST not go back to sin. I've seen ordinary new MFM members perform miracles that only G.Os of some other Churches perfom; that's the Power of Prayer mixed with unrelenting Faith. You have no reason not to be a born again Christian, for Heaven has made due provisions for all ur Spiritual needs on earth. Yet, all genuine Churches can perform all the functions identified here.

Many of us are deceiving our selves, Satan is the author of confusion, no Christian (so called) will be looking for a job and asked if the director is a Muslim or Christian, no Muslim (so called) will be rushed to the hospital and will first ask if the doctor is a Christian or Muslim, why? But when it comes to faith we claim superiority, that's vanity and vexation of spirit, deceiving ourselves. Love is the greatest, love taught us not to kill, hate, discriminate, kidnap or bomb. Does your so called religion observe 'love your neighbor as yourselves? Judge by your self. |

[b]Okay!! So now the thread has not turned into which religion is better?!! Okay... I leave you with this piece to enjoy................. Letter from King Leopold II of Belgium to Colonial Missionaries, 1883 “Reverends, Fathers and Dear Compatriots: The task that is given to fulfill is very delicate and requires much tact. You will go certainly to evangelize, but your evangelization must inspire above all Belgium interests. Your principal objective in our mission in the Congo is never to teach the niggers to know God, this they know already. They speak and submit to a Mungu, one Nzambi, one Nzakomba, and what else I don't know. They know that to kill, to sleep with someone else's wife, to lie and to insult is bad. Have courage to admit it; you are not going to teach them what they know already. Your essential role is to facilitate the task of administrators and industrials, which means you will go to interpret the gospel in the way it will be the best to protect your interests in that part of the world. For these things, you have to keep watch on disinteresting our savages from the richness that is plenty [in their underground. To avoid that, they get interested in it, and make you murderous] competition and dream one day to overthrow you. Your knowledge of the gospel will allow you to find texts ordering, and encouraging your followers to love poverty, like “Happier are the poor because they will inherit the heaven” and, “It's very difficult for the rich to enter the kingdom of God.” You have to detach from them and make them disrespect everything which gives courage to affront us. I make reference to their Mystic System and their war fetish – warfare protection – which they pretend not to want to abandon, and you must do everything in your power to make it disappear. Your action will be directed essentially to the younger ones, for they won't revolt when the recommendation of the priest is contradictory to their parent's teachings. The children have to learn to obey what the missionary recommends, who is the father of their soul. You must singularly insist on their total submission and obedience, avoid developing the spirit in the schools, teach students to read and not to reason. There, dear patriots, are some of the principles that you must apply. You will find many other books, which will be given to you at the end of this conference. Evangelize the niggers so that they stay forever in submission to the white colonialists, so they never revolt against the restraints they are undergoing. Recite every day – “Happy are those who are weeping because the kingdom of God is for them.”. Convert always the blacks by using the whip. Keep their women in nine months of submission to work freely for us. Force them to pay you in sign of recognition- goats, chicken or eggs-every time you visit their villages. And make sure that niggers never become rich. Sing every day that it's impossible for the rich to enter heaven. Make them pay tax each week at Sunday mass. Use the money supposed for the poor, to build flourishing business centres. Institute a confessional system, which allows you to be good detectives denouncing any black that has a different consciousness contrary to that of the decision-maker. Teach the niggers to forget their heroes and to adore only ours. Never present a chair to a black that comes to visit you. Don't give him more than one cigarette. Never invite him for dinner even if he gives you a chicken every time you arrive at his house. “The above speech which shows the real intention of the Christian missionary journey in Africa was exposed to the world by Mr. Moukouani Muikwani Bukoko, born in the Congo in 1915, and who in 1935 while working in the Congo, bought a second hand Bible from a Belgian priest who forgot the speech in the Bible. I have left out some aspects of the letter which I deem irrelevant considering the length of the letter so as not to bore you with too many details.However, if you feel like reading the write up in its entirety you can go here; - I guess the experiment has been a success[/b] 3 Likes 2 Shares |

True knowlÉÐge is knowing the extent to which you don't know. Until what we know is different from what they tell us, then is only when we truly know. Until u understand why you dispise the possibility of other gods, u can never understand why others dispise ur god. The more we try to know, the more we know we don't know.

Now do you people know that God is like a destination You can get to Him from point A or B or point C It depends on the path you take but one thing about this path is that God is love and if your religion doesn't preach love and peace ..then your on wrong track Now another thing is that lord is not a caricature and you can't mould God but its God that mould you .. If you worship any Image moulded by hand or drawn your on wrong religion That's my position. Tame this |

McSterling: Who is a Christian? This is the mistake a lot of atheists make. You get into a debate about Christianity when you cannot even tell what it means to be a Christian. There are many raised in Christian homes who are not true Christians. I was raised in a preacher's home and for the first 16 yrs of my life, I thought I was saved but I was merely a bible reader, church goer, praise worship singer. But I did not know HIM, and I lived the life of a sinner, until the day I had a divine encounter with HIM. Only then did I become a Christian. Many of the best (true) Christians I know, started out in Muslim, Athiest or Idol worship homes, and had a divine encounter with Christ. |

Just compare what your religion teaches with the Bible. If the harmony is 100% you have found the true religion. John 13:35 says: " By this all will know that you are my disciples—if you have love among yourselves.” Red flags: If your religion teaches these popular false doctrine: Trinity, Celebration of Christmas, Easter, Collection of tithes,--most of these are rooted in paganism! Be open-minded, dont attack me! Find out more. Give me your address I will send a book to you for free entitled: "What Does the Bible Really Teach?" |

tonychristopher:you mean the scientific natural laws that have been proven to be Impossible? Chai! do you read your bible at all ? Genesis1:9-19 claims God created the earth before the heavens.(it is a well known fact that our planet came from its own star, the sun. Funny abi? Hope u did a Lil bit of science.Their are soo many scientific miracles in the Quran, and proven too. you would be blown away! The attempts by people to distort this as always been shamed. "Do the disbelievers not see that the heavens and the earth were joined together, then I split them apart?"(Quran21 verse30) once again, hope you did a little bit of science? |

Religion is an act of seeking for God and How to please Him. Many(e.g Monk) Pray 1000 times a Day to reach God. Christianity is not a Religion because we are not seeking for God, we have found Him,and He is well pleased with us. So we enter into a Relationship with Him. Christianity is not a Religion, But a Relationship( Father - Children Relationship) Sheenor: |

There is no religion in the world that can be said to be true. Many people have used religion to perpetrate heinous crimes the world over. A pastor will admit he is a devote christian, but in reality he is adulterous,corrupt and wicked. Same with the Imam or muslim clerics. I believe that true religion exist in the individual heart & not on religion,church,mosques,shrine, or based on what some self-proclaim preachers say. For me as an individual,am a christian by birth and a complete socialist by nature, with the Bible as my reference point. My belief and religion is well express in Phil 4:8; Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. Therefore,we must all tolerate each others religion for everyone will get to Heaven or Hell in his/her own way. Thank you. 2 Likes 1 Share |
