Kindly contribute reasonably and objectively to this. What do Christians stand to lose if at the end of it all they found out there was no God? |

Then one has nohing to lose. its like a gamble, if u beleieve in heaven and hell and do good like ur supposed to and there turns out to be no God, then u have nothing to lose. no punoshment, no reward and ud have contributed good to d soxiety by being good. on the other hand, if u choose to not beli3ve and there actyally turns out to be a God, u lose d reward and u still have a punishment for urself. get it? |

pipeewa: how can one ask such a question with all nature singing boldly to the fact that there is a higher power somewhere watching over all. dont be deceived, God is as real as the air you breath. though u cant see it, its very much available. Christians would not lose any thing if ever, however impossible that is, there is no God. the good life on earth, touching humanity positively and living above all sicknesses and diseases is enuf gain. but if u dont bliv there is God, u stand to lose all when finally u meet him someday on the judgement seat. the shock would be enuf to kill |

They'd lose a lot. The peace, the tranquility. The ability to belive, and do right selflessly. The lives you turned to be like you and the one-less destruction you helped prevent from happening. The suicidal they converted, that criminal that 'gave his life', the prostitute that found hope and reason to survive. Don't you get it??..... There is never a loss in Christianity. 'Christianity' is more than just the existence of Jesus... No!, it's living selflessly, living for your next neighbour and the good that affects the world. Christianity isn't about if Jesus is or isn't, it's about the impact and change you bring to the world. We lose NOTHING. 1 Like 1 Share |

pipeewa: In the first place God is not a Myth simply because many Christians have personal encounter with God Himself just has God promised to reveal Himself. God has visited twice, anyway I know you'll either call it delusion, simply imagination from my mind or fake story. Well anyhow you feel, this is for you: If you've never had supernatural experience you can doubt supernatural existence...I was once in that shoe! 1 Like |

pipeewa: Actually, I won't hold back because it's the strong evidence I have today about God existence. Let me give you a quick background of myself. I was born and raised in C & S (though today I'm not attending C & S, mind you I didn't leave because whether something is wrong them if I go back to my hometown is still same church I attend), so whether you know more about them or you've heard something about them but one thing you can't take away from C & S is how they always talk about being FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (though some are fake but some are true). So while I was still attending C & S I use to make jest of them whenever I see them do all sort of things when said they being filled with the Holyspirit, there is no how people will move I will never move or fall. Enough of that. Now my first encounter happened in 2005 (mind you I'm through with secondary then---to show you that I'm not more a kid that someone can say maybe it's illusion or just imagination), on that faithful night around 12:00am I didn't sleep on time so when I wanted to sleep I just moved and I told myself let me pray, So as I was praying as usual I started by giving thanks to God next asking for the forgiveness of my sin after these two prayers, I started to ask that Holy spirit should empower me (Note I'm just praying a normal prayer not that I have it in mind that something will happen) So as I was praying this prayer SUDDENLY I began to fill a powerful FORCE moving close to me IN FORM OF A PERSON (I'm alone in my room and my door was locked) shortly I begin to speak in tongues and The Person keeps moving towards me on getting to where i knee down I fill His touch but as something I never experience before I was so scared that made me to stand up but immediately I got up everything back to normal. I began to ask myself different questions i.e did I just speak in tongue now, who touched me, where does this powerful force came from? e.t.c The second encountered happened in 2008, it starts like the first one but it was then I experienced everything I missed when I got scared and stood up in the first encounter. This time around, He lifted me up by Himself when I was still kneeing down praying and wrap me IN Himself and when He was leaving He backed it up with promise. I'm not expecting you to welcome my story but everyone has a story to tell in life this happened to be one of my own and in reality that's one of the things I have experienced in life. You may discard my story (as you're not there) but you can't take the reality away from me. Please permit me to quote this verse to show you that the God that Christians serve, He's ready to reveal Himself to anyone who is ready to know Him. "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him" John 14:21 KJV Emphasis @underline Shalom! 2 Likes |

thanks for sharing @Emusan You may not be able to share your experience well. but that is your conviction anyways. And if anyone doubts you, its their cup of tea. Is there anyone else who can share their conviction about God? maybe this will help others too. testimony time everyone |
