chemystery:You have a conscience and you know that my God exists. As for the insults, you can go ahead and insult Him. He still loves you. And this whole thing isn't about letters. He is never referred to as god in my Bible. But He is called God, ok? Please notice this: There is nothing you can say against my God that will ever make Him hate you. But you can do it as long as the earth remains. When this world rolls away, or natural death which happens to everyone visits, then, you will account for your words and face judgement. That's just it. 1 Like |

IKC10:Gbam! chemystery:Some people will call you a nigger (i.e. this to some degrees is similar to what happened in Acts 11:26) Some people will shame and treat you like a nigger (i.e. this to some degrees is similar to what happened in 1 Peter 4:16) Some people giving the chance, wouldnt ever want to become a nigger (i.e. this to some degrees is similar to what happened in Acts 26:28) Being called a christian doesnt fly, just as you arent defined by what others call you (e.g. I suppose, calling you a nigger, wouldnt fly with you) Being treated like a christian doesnt fly, just as you arent to be treated because of ill-conceived ideas and bad definition of you. (e.g. I dont think, shaming you or treating you like a nigger, would fly with you) The word, Christian, occurs only 3 times in the bible, and each appearance was in the context of contemptuous ridicule (i.e. Acts 11:26 and Acts 26:28) or around being shamed and subjected to mockery (i.e. 1 Peter 4:16) 21“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ - Matthew 7:21-23 The lake of fire will first freeze up before you'll ever come across the word ''christianity'' in the bible The ''MANY'' referred to in bible verse, Matthew 7:22 above, inarguably is what christianity is all about (i.e. false religion) James 1:27 is the only true religion God recognises and approves of 2 Likes 1 Share |

MuttleyLaff:If all that didnt qualify rastafari as true religion, then christianity is far from being a true religion. For every one rastafarian you mention, i can mention hundreds of thousands christians. The only rastafarian you can mention is even late and lived far in south america. Is this not evident that these ones are the few your bibke mentioned. Even ifthey themselves have no claims of being the few, your bible have claimed it for them. If you claim rastafarians are not the few, then tell me a god and religion with the fewest followers |

That's 68.5% of people who are not christians. Where the op gets the idea that christ meant "Christianity" will have the fewest adherents compared to other religions, I don't know since Christ said no such thing. 1 Like 1 Share |

chemystery: My point was as I said before, Christ never claimed that "christianity" will have the least adherents." “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." If there's only 31% of Christians in the world that means only 31% found that path to life, meaning 68.5% didn't. Few found it, many didn't. Ps, obviously I'm ignoring some complications (conversions, denominations etc) 1 Like 1 Share |

MuttleyLaff:Ask anyone to mention a rastafarian they start and end with few reggae musician. That data you see there is from wikipedia and we can both deduce from it that ratafarianism is the fewest. What other few are you seeing there that no one else is seeing? And who told you rastafarians dont care for orphans and widows in their distress? Such act don't even need religion to execute but empathy |

chemystery: The broad or narrow way has nothing to do with your statistics attending church or not my friend. It simply means the commitment of living a holy life. God is not interested in quantity but in quality. You have just thought like a man but man's thought are not God's and his ways are not our ways. |

OP, I do kinda appreciate that rastafarians are about afrocentrism and rejecting animal fat. However I do see them as an offshoot of christianity because some of their beliefs are founded in the Bible. |
