You were never saved, you are an agent of darkness who has been spying on the activities of the Church. I would have challenged you to post your name as an evidence to prove me wrong but I know that just like your father satan, you have mastered the art of deceit and would definitely come up with all manner of excuses. We know you are on satan's payroll executing his master plan which is to fight against the Church but, you will certainly not prevail. See how proven satanist are happy with you because you are indirectly supporting their agenda. Why insult God if you believe He doesn't exist? Why express rage against Who you claim is nothing but shadows? See how cunning you are. You keep dragging your fake testimony instead of hitting the nail on the head.

Like other fictions I have come across on Nairaland, you drag and drag your post just to enter into the mind and arouse the interest of your readers. This makes them vulnerable if they are not grounded in the word of God.

Be bold and come out plain like SonofLucifer and Alfamann who were direct and unashamed when they outrightly promulgated their devotion to satan. Stop deceiving people that you were this and that, else prove me wrong by stating your name so we could look you up on facebook and see your old posts to show that you were formally a Man of God. Or are you unsure/not ready to be persecuted for your new faith?

Every force of deception entrained within this thread is nullified in Jesus name.

One question to ask Hardmirror, johnnydon, and co is,
How did you get your spouse to share same ideology with you, and
How do you intend to raise your kids?

Current girl friend is an atheist, A popular one here on Nairaland at that... I'm a lucky bastard grin

For my kids i intend to raise them free, they won't be atheists or theists, rather maintain that default stance we all have from birth which is Pure agnosticism.

When they grow to the age of reason they can develop their own ideas not feed them my own ideas

Oboy,

It's so amazing meeting an "heterofaithful".

As for me, I believe in one Creator who is beyond the description of religious books.

I can't create a custom religion, hence I go with Christianity which is closer to religious argument of Yoruba people.

it's more convenient for me and my temperaments. I'm less concern what happens when I die.

I also understand that its not because of heaven and hell that God made mankind, he has greater plans than the reported.

Also, he has some better ways of catching fun than hunt about for my sins, but people will always be people.

However, I accepted Christian doctrine cause if you don't accept the finger of God, you will not live to behold his glory.

Why do you think it's should be only 1 creator and not millions or a whole race of them?

julioralph:

wow..

I thought as much....

he started out exactly d same way d Op started, forming ''holy holy'' ....
then he labelled himself a ''berean'' christian and started condemning everyone... Anglicans, Catholics, Pentecostals, Evangelicals, Cele lipsrsealed JW's lipsrsealed Muslims lipsrsealed Hindu's etc etc....
later he stopped going to church...
And finally he more or less stopped believing in God!!!

I remember back in d day when his threads were almost a constant fixture on Fp every sunday.... Like Paul cautioned us (and has been quoted here) Let him that stands take heed lest he falls Good Pm

Frosbel's case is really a very good case study here how dangerous it is for any religious person to encounter atheists no matter how strong they think their belief is..

frosbel is a good example

We all at one point were top notch core religionists and theists but along the line the thunder struck..wink

Frosbel was one top debater against atheists here on NL, we don't have anybody here now that can match that, his aggressiveness during his days.. He was a pain then, i only watched as a guest then though.

then slowly the emergence of reason started, the little seeds of doubt and question his endless encounters with atheists culminated and germinated into a tree..

even though they might sound aggressive and all that, it is expected for a dearly held idea to be aggressive towards a new contradicting one but some things never remain same.

some way along the line, it may take years but they will one day ask one question as an effect from the debates with atheists.

and from there the slow painful and lonely hard journey begins ...

thats why i always maintain: it's dangerous for anyone with a belief in deities to debate an atheist, it might take a very long time but that tiny mustered seed of doubt must be planted.

so when debating, do not argue to win an argument or argue endlessly, it is needless and infantile..

Simple make your points and be done with it, all needed is just 1 tiny seed of doubt, natural curiosity takes over..

the result is always ......... You know it

You mean to tell me that your life depends on no principle?
Even though I've long discovered the truth (that religion is just a tool used to control the vulnerables), the fact still can not be challenged that the bible holds such great morals and principles that when ones life is base on them, would definitely bring out the best in him/her. And so I've decided to adopt it's morals to serve as a base for my family.
But for how long will one have to pretend for his wife and kids, even when you know that all the prayers you've said together in Jesus name has always been nothing but ceremonial formalities.

@HardMirror

Have read your story and it's quite interesting. I'll like to respond, but before I proceed let me inform you I'm no church person trying to re-convert you. Rather, I'm here to point out the misconceptions you had from the beginning and still do. Hopefully, it would help you understand better.

I'll be quoting some of your comments I find interesting.

1.
Now this case was peculiar. Why? I learnt something key that day. Once a human sees you as superhuman, they believe anything you tell them and people can be overwhelmed by the presences or words of people they think are directly linked with God.

If I kept praying she would have kept twisting on the floor. But I commanded the nonesense to stop and it stopped. This is not very far from how hypnotism works

Yes, you're right, but you don't fully understand why and why hypnotism itself works.

Nature is configured to work that way. You don't have to be a christian for that to happen. You could be a muslem, a babalawo, a monk, a celebrity, anything. If you exert that kind of influence on someone, nature will activate the person receiving such incantations to trust you and get healed. This's why Jesus Christ who had a great knowledge of how nature works emphasized faith among his followers.

T. B. Joshua use it even now, and it's not a bad thing, as long as whoever is using it is using it for good. Of course, thieves also use it to rob people by sheer threat without even wielding a gun!.

This's also the natural tool available to parents to control their children. If such natural powers doesn't exist, children would not obey their parents. It works all the time and would continue to work. Even if now as an unbeliever you go out and start attending to your former followers, it would still work, as long as they don't realize you're no longer a believer. It have nothing to do with the bible or koran or Torah. Again, it's natural.

2.
I started revealing things that were going on in her family and telling her how God was fixing them.
I started telling her how God has set her free and restoring her family.
I spoke with authority. I quoted scriptures. It was powerful.

Similar to the above, if your followers believe what you're saying is true, nature would activate it in their mind as real, even if you were deliberately telling them a lie. Nature works in a way that it's the receiver of such sermon decide whether it's real or not, not YOU. You could be a 419'ner and it would still work!. It's just nature working, it have nothing to do with the bible or koran or Torah.

3.
Real magic is does not exist, but that does not mean magic is not real. Magic is real as long as you are ready to overlook the tricks behind the magic and just enjoy the show.

Not really. But, it's almost like the above. It's the onlooker that decides whether a magic is real or not. Not the actor!!. It's not YOU that decides whether the magic is real or not. As far as the mind of the onlookers are concerned a magic is real. In the eyes of your followers your magic or incantations were real, even if you were a fake pastor deliberating fooling them. Both of you were experiencing reality in opposite sides. If your followers believed your sermon or magic were real, you are not better than them for knowing it was a fake. To them it was real, to you it was a fake. Just two sides of the same coin!!.

Indeed, science also proves so. Albert Einstein's law of relativity shows different people would have different realities depending on their position, location or speed; for instance. If we 're seated watching a live football match in a stadium, and there's a penalty kick, the spectator seated at the back of the goalkeeper sees the kick as a ball coming towards him, while the other spectator seated at the back of the opponent's goalkeeper sees it as a ball running away from him. That's one.

Assuming the match is between Nigeria and Brazil, and at the end Nigeria wins the match by 7 goals to 0, i.e Nigeria 7 : Brazil 0. The reality for Nigeria would be victory and joy, while the reality for Brazil would be loss and sadness. Each country perceiving reality at opposite sides!. These are the two different realities in this example!!.

Quantum physics also have same discoveries!. Scientists were able to get 2 correct answers for 1 mathematical question!!. Reality depends on the mind perceiving it!!. Again, YOU are not the one that decides reality for someone else. I wish I could get someone understand this, cause it's so important. That's how nature works!!.

4.
We rounded up the prayer. I asked the woman some questions. She said she is delivered. She was in tears I had to hug her and pet her. The daughter was still damn confused. I just looked at the confused girl and told her God has set them free.

It's all the same as above. It was the woman that experienced the reality NOT you!!. Indeed, your prayers worked as far as the woman was concerned. Or did it not work??.

I'll be so glad, if you could understand what God means and keep helping such women get back their lives.

5.
The moment you have a personal relationship with God and he is a Father to you more than being a far away God, then you begin to realize he is doing nothing to help humanity.

This just a misconception. God is you!. It's up to you to pursue good for humanity using that feel good spirit. There's no other God that would solve humanity's problem than you.

6.
I have not met a christian that is passionate about saving souls that is not worried about God's incompetency because you would have had so many touching encounters and realize god is actually doing nothing for humanity, but we humans are the ones running around for god (that does not even exists)

Like No. 6 above, this misconception originates from your mistaken concept of God all the while you were a preacher. God wants you to do anything you can for the advancement of humanity. And when you're doing that he's doing it.

7.
[b]1. My Number one problem: We are to preach to all nations and make sure people don't perish
I and many christians I know were trying our absolute best to depopulate hell as fast as possible. To make sure people don't just hear the word BUT they actually get saved.

Someone asked why I pray for at least 12hours. It was because of the burden I carried. The burden of soul winning. It was terrifying that many were going to end up in hell and burn forever! if you are a christian and you believe people will end up in hell and you don't preach and try to win souls everyday YOU ARE WORSE THAN BOKO HARAM. FACT!

How can you have peace of mind and sleep at night knowing you hold the secret to eternal life in your hands and you are comfortable? How dear you buy luxuries when you can put that money into soul winning? How can you be asking God for more money, when you should pick up your bag and preach. How can you be asking God to pick up your call so you too can drive Range Rover?
It started becoming apparent that even God was a wicked God. Why?

-so he is all loving, loves humanity more than any man could ever love another man. More than an earthly father would love his son. YET God would let people perish in hell for even telling a lie no matter why you tell the lie or how small it is?

- so the best a God can do is to send humans to preach His word?

Oh wait! Seems you don't understand Jesus died in Jerusalem for the sins of the WHOLE world and If anyone dies without christ he was going to end in Hell. Wait! Do you know how many People would have died in Africa, South America, Australia, China, India, europe, before the Gospel reached them? Do you know how many people die per day?

So all these people will go to hell? The clever answer will be NO, the won't go to hell because they did not know. Oh! So if they won't go to hell because they were ignorant, why preach the gospel to them and make them informed and now if they die with the tiniest of sin without christ they end in hell. Why not leave them ignorant so their souls can be saved based on their ignorance.

How long did it take for the gospel of christ to reach the whole world? Is god truely the God of the whole world or of Jews?
[/b]
This's where you exposed your biggest misconception about God.

God is not interested in religion!. God has nothing to do with religion!!. Jesus Christ himself was not a christian neither were he a church person. In one instance he went to the church (synagogue) and began destroying the whole place because he felt they weren't doing things right.

God is not interested how many times you pray or so called saving souls for him, but how well you served humanity for good- solving those problems that threw you away from the church. Without mincing words; what this comment tell me is that you were a christian fanatics all the while, same way your friends and big pastors were and still are.

Even if God and Jesus were real and you based your entitlement on the above, God and Jesus would still have rejected you in heaven, if any. Indeed, Jesus said: "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

You mean to tell me that your life depends on no principle?

I have a thousand and one principles and i can proudly say all are independent of any religious coercions.

My principles are of my own making, my ideas and not that of any other person, book or doctrine


Even though I've long discovered the truth (that religion is just a tool used to control the vulnerables), the fact still can not be challenged that the bible holds such great morals and principles that when ones life is base on them, would definitely bring out the best in him/her. And so I've decided to adopt it's morals to serve as a base for my family.


There is a whole lot of moral values in every religious book as well as a thousand and one barbarism, inconsistencies and outright rubbish.

Buddhism holds a great deal of morals
Taoism does
Janism does and these religions beats every Abrahamic or biblical mumbo jumbo hands down when it comes to morals.

Even the African culture is decorated with outright healthy moral principles so what the hell are you saying?

All these mentioned above, all the morals found in these religions or books are all human ideas.

So why must you rely on someone else's idea to develop your own moral ideas...
So morality is not a trade mark of any religion or book, don't even try make it so.

I'll teach my kids morals in coincide with the human society, values that promotes justice and love, freedom and promotes individual and societal well being.

So now know this; Morality is neither Christian or muslim or hindu or any religion, morality is human it belongs to no ism.

morality is not dependent on any book or creed for basis cus it has a human basis..

Develop your own god damn ideas!!!

But for how long will one have to pretend for his wife and kids, even when you know that all the prayers you've said together in Jesus name has always been nothing but ceremonial formalities.

Boy this is your own cup of tea.... I am not bringing my Children up in any religion not one..

I will teach them the essence of goodness as a human virtue for the human society necessary for our continuation and not as a religious doctrine or religious idea

that's absurd.

Once they do that, then your job is done. seeds have been planted.

I couldn't have said it better boss. It's all seem very childish, immature and really really desperate and insecure when they muster attempts to counter atheism crowned by the personal tantrums and emotional yarns.

Those infantile attempts really only more like adds fuel to the flame.

I receive PMs almost on daily basis, people with questions even though most times naive but you can see it's sincere, people at the cross roads from reading the debates and people that already abandoned religions feeling alone and wants a guiding hand.

I notice they are not really the people who mostly comment on this board but actually silent readers who go through the squabbles and ponder them and there is always an effect from the things they read. . **Though once in a while you get a surprise PM from an unexpected popular religionist**

the religions (Islam and Christianity) are doing terrible damage in the name of defence.

So the debates is not really about the person countering you but about the readers, the readers can discern between plain imbecility and an argument.

Most irreligious people here keep on arguing with theists, engaging in an endless circle of meaningless squabbles repeating the same thing over and over again, i have done that before and it's totally unnecessary, irrelevant and nonsensical.

I keep saying, no point stressing it or trying to win an arguement last i checked there is no prize for that.

Simply make your points and move, there is a curious point in every human, you only need to give it a very little prick. It takes over from there..

Not aim at convincing anyone, that is irrelevant and unneeded

I am actually abit late by a day to follow your story to the end because a lot of posts have gone out, so it's hard to gather all the pieces, besides u kept fighting people in btw rather Dan make your points and get at your story.

First and foremost, the bible says a fool is wise in his own eyes.
For me, there are a lot of things you did because I carefully followed ur write ups to a point and found out you had answers ready for Christians or anyone who have contrary view. You are ready to stop your story and fight with style, forgetting you have a story at hand.

Obviously you are well read but your psychological skill is well displayed here by trying to frustrate people with ur story (delay tactics) and anyone who looses patients is ridiculed by using their words against them through psychology, logic & philosophy.

You claimed to know God, won soul etc and one of the best converters around yet you got converted by whatever means because I didn't finish ur story which is not important. You know what you are doing and it's mind game.

For you to have been converted and not feel remorsed after claiming you know too much abt God from ur past means two things went wrong.

1. Either you donot know what you were doing (even if u claim to av 300+ member to make a point) or

2. You dug too deep and exposed yourself to a deomon. Obviously from what u have shown and said, you are one of the best in what u do and very adventureous to the point of wanting to take on a bunch of Muslims even though God didn't send you.

I'm not boasting but very experienced in terms of spirituality and I have encountered some things too. We all have our experiences but I can discern somethings is not right.

If you choose not to return to God, you are not doing anyone a favour and saying it here on NL to earn smypathy or praise for dumbing christianity or seek new fan base of atheists. Your being an atheist is your choice then keep it; I don't go around telling people why I go to church.

I will stop here for now and will wait for you to reply, guess we just got started.

Like Blackhummer predicted... He isn't what he claims he is and trust me... He won't reply you!
Re: From Pastor To Atheist: Why I Will Never Be A Christian Again by heeqhmart(f): 3:24am On May 02, 2016
OP, when you were curious and seeking for answers, did you read the Qur'an, the Injeel, the Zabur, the Torah, the Suhuf??
When you were looking for answers, did you research on other religious books?? Did you read at all about Islam?? Maybe, just maybe you would have found answers??
I'm just curious..
I believe strongly that Man's purpose on earth is to serve Allah (s.w.t)...
So please, if you did not do any of the above, just for the sake of answering your questions go back and read these books...
I'll also like to recommend the Hadith that contains the Sunnah of Rasullulah(s.a.w)...
I'd be very happy if you did...

I have more to discuss with you later, we kinda have similar views and situations. I'm an anglican too. I do not desire to declare myself an atheist. What ever your term as the truth will be preyed into and analized by the grail movement. they'll give you some room to hear you out, with logical explanations. I dont presently blame myself if I dont give good so much reverence he desires/deserves. It rather pains me when my life becomes dirty, like a diversion from moral uprightness. Please, could you do me a favour? my signature is below and my contact is there too, I want to hear from you via whatsapp. Atheists struggle with there own theories and beliefs throughout life, I dont think its best idea, belive you me, I completely share the same opinion with you. I'll come back to finish reading. I'm on page 10.

My own version of being a christian is very different. I believe there is a God but I know lots and lots of pastor are into business and I urge all christian to build their own life business-wise just all Nigerians pastors are doing.

Every Offering and Tithe is accounted for. They have an account book where everything goes into.

Never expected so many people to find this thread. And as I said before, I have given a lot of personal details. So sorry guys, no more updates.
You saying my story is a lie does not make it a lie so those in this category can shove their opinion up their assssses cos I am not here to please you.

Using Reverse-psychology won't help either. You try to discredit me while actually your aim is for me to give more details about myself then you would be able to determine were and how to rubbish me. I get all these tactics. You have no idea who you are dealing with.

Will continue today anyway. Those who are here to preach and insult and what not should please save themselves all the stress. You all seem to be having a hard life.

It is well with you Bro.


So, how far with those posts of yours that were pasted on the thread? And are you an atheist now, or you are of Satan?


May God's grace bring you back to Him (that's if you're truly his in the first place).

only if people really knows the difference between AGNOSTICS and ATHEISTS.. Then d silly Agnostics who thought they are atheist on this thread will shut d hell up..
Actually people beliefs/non beliefs can be categorized 4

1. Gnostic theist: These set of people believe that there is a God and they are 100% sure (most theist belong here).

2. Agnostic theist: These people believe in a God but don't claim to be too sure. It might just be a silly story afterall.

3. Gnostic atheist: These guys don't believe in a God and and they are very sure. (these people are very few)

4. Agnostic atheist: These people don't believe in a God but agree that they might be wrong. (This is where I belong and also most atheist in this forum).

You can say whatever but you MR NEW ATHEIST is a liar. This story is fake. You were never a believer let alone a Pastor doing miracles ( who dash monkey bananna? ).

One thing i have noticed is dat you are an agent of darkness trying to pull some Christians who were not grounded in the word of God to your side. But u know what? You have failed!!!! Loool. We exposed u!!! Your old posts points to the fact where you said you were a Satanist!! Yet you came here to claim Ex Pastor, may God have mercy on you. I don't have a problem with you being a Satanist but why do u have to be deceptive about it? Claiming you were once a Pastor, so that you can deceive Christians that are not yet grounded in the word? You hide under the umbrella of an atheist but you are not even an atheist cos you believe in a Supernatural Being. You are not proud to be a Satanist? Why? loool. Of course you know why.

Next time you want to pull such fake stunts, remember that we have people who are very intelligent here and who analyses people even online!! loool. You can never fool me, am too smart for you!!! Whether you are an Atheist or a Satanist, it's your own cup of Zobo!! I don't care!!! Why you see me in this thread is because i don't want u to deceive some impressionable Christians here.

As for me, nothing anyone says can make me reject Christ because you know what? I am a New Creation, the very righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. As Christ is in heaven, so am i on earth. God is real and whether you believe him or not, He is the same today, yesterday and for ever more!!!

So MR NEW ATHEIST kontinue in your new found vocation but what i know is dat this your story is a lie from the pit of hell!!! Lmaoo.... You were never a believer or a Pastor. You cannot even mention your name which shows You are a LIAR!!! So MR LIE-NUS, have a nice night, i don't buy your story, try another stunt.

Blah,blah, blah. Thank you. Now go and have a nice life.

CONTINUATION...
My gradual loss in believe in the bible kept growing. I can say 2010 was the year I was last a christian, 2011 was the year of researching christianity and asking the important questions, 2012 I made up my mind i have had enough of being afraid of the truth.

We give a lot of excuses for god when things don't work out the way we expect and we praise god when coincidentally things fall in place.

Had another incidence in 2010 which rattled my faith.
One of my favorite books was "GOD's GENERALS" and the story of Kathrine KULMAN was my favorite. I got very carried away by one of her proteges BENNY HIN and really loved his book GOOD MORNING HOLY SPIRIT.
I always felt I had a similar calling to Kathrine Kulman. So marriage was something I believed won't be for me. All I wanted was to fully give myself to God.
So when ever I have the opportunity, I made sure I let the Spirit work fully. Manifesting so people would know God is real and affects their reality.
I never felt anything is impossible for God.
So early 2010 (before the idanre Outreach), we were on outreach to Ajabuto, a farming community in Ondo state.
The head of the community was a blind man and they still served idols. In fact there was an idol right in from of the community head's house.

This Outreach was a turning point in the lives of all ASF members that were involved. (We must have been more than 40 that were involved).
Everyone that went on this outreach returned to futa fully convinced of the supernatural.
For the first time in their lives, they were laying hands on the sick and casting out demons.

That night as the villagers gathered and I preached, many never knew what to expect. When I began giving word of knowledge and people were coming out responding. I asked the other ASF members I was with to start praying for people laying hands on them. And the whole place exploded.
I remember a brother coming to meet me after the program excited and saying he could not believe he layed hands on people and they were falling and reacting to the power of God. Many ASF members that were on this outreach got baptised in the spirit with evidence of speaking in tongues.
It was spectacular. It was like being in the Shangrila of the Holy Spirit.

We were confident God was ready to do anything and everything no matter how impossible it may seem.

The community head did not attend the crusade so we visited him early in the morning the next day. Remember the man was blind and had an idol at the entrance to his house.

Long story short, this man gave his life to christ that morning, abolished idol worshiping.
BUT. How could we preach a God that is greater than all other gods, a God who is the Almighty, All powerful! All loving!
A god we claim is better than his idol and yet leave this man blind. NO way! This man will see today!
So we prayed that God should restore his sight. A simple prayer that did not work. Then we had to query the man if he lacked faith (I remember this incidence with sadness). The man was almost in tears, he kept shout ""Jesu Mogbagbo!"
("Jesus I believe!". )
Damn!
"Heal me! I believe!"
Seeing him in this condition asking Jesus to heal him touched me. I insisted we won't leave until he sees.
We prayed and prayed and prayed. You can guess the rest. The man stayed the same.

I could not sleep the night of that day. I kept asking, "why?"

"Maybe the man lacked faith" common you can't be serious this man wanted to see badly, he wanted God to heal him. He was begging God with all his heart.
"Maybe I was doing it to show off". Haba! I knew I wasn't. I felt bad for this poor man.
There was absolutely no reason why God should not have healed that man.
God was mute, he never told me why.
Yet he promises that, "ANYTHING WE ASK IN HIS NAME SHALL BE GRANTED. ANYTHING!" "IF WE HAD FAITH LIKE A MUSTARD SEED WE WILL ASK MOUNTAINS TO BE UPROOTED AND THROWN INTO THE SEA" don't try to twist these scriptures. They are simple and straight forward, Problem is it does not work. Even if you have faith as big as pawpaw you can never command grass to be uprooted talkless of commanding mountain with mustard seed faith.
God is a liar, he does not honor his promises. Deep in my heart I knew this was the answer, but I had a deep relationship with God that would never allow such to take root easily.
But if God could not do this what can he now do? What was the value of his promises. His word that he has exulted above all His names?

Indeed something was wrong.
I can't continue to blame myself, the devil and people for God not doing what he promises even after all criterias has been met. And most annoying is he won't even reveal why he is not honouring his word, you have to keep guessing.

Indeed something was wrong, I knew where the problem was, but it was terrifying to even think of it. So God takes glories for good things that coincidentally happens to man (hard work or coincidence), but we take the blame when God fails in his own end of the bargain

Can I tell you something Mr NEW ATHEIST? We are not in a competition with atheists.......nobody is begging you to do God a favour by believing in Him. If you believe in God and the death and resurrection of Christ for your sins, you are merely doing yourself a favour of saving your soul. You will certainly discover if you or me is the FOOL here by the time you die and get into eternity to face judgement. Let's leave the answer to that till we both close our eyes here on earth and open them in eternity! No need to argue with you.
