Something happened this week that shocked me to the marrow and made me to weep profusely for the Body of Christ when I got home. I was in a Bank, and suddenly a vision that the Lord showed me sometimes ago came into reality at an instant. The shock of the realization of the faithfulness and reliability of Jesus made me to exclaim involuntarily. Before I could even think, I said "praise the Lord!" The population of the crowd in the Bank then was at least 80% Christian, yet they stared like "For what? which Lord?" It was this lack of response that jolted me back to reality of the fact that I was in a Bank.

To satisfy my curiosity and really confirm their lack of knowledge and love for the ALMIGHTY GOD that the Christians claim to worship, I turned and faced the crowd and re-echoed "Praise they Lord!" There and then, I received the most rude shock of my life ever; an assuring resounding reverberating answer from some voices that responded with "Allahu Akbar!!!" I said wow! HalleluYAH! Then some smiling Muslim guys came to shake me as if to say, "your Faith is too strong to belong to those useless people, join us, you belong to Islam" We joked and laugh over the occurrence till I left the Bank.

For those that may be quick to say why shout HalleluYAH in a Bank, I told you it was initially a reflex action of joy as a response to sudden realization of HIS faithfulness and reliability. Also, religion has always been and shall always be part of human life because Man did not create himself and can never be self-existent, except for some self-deceiving people that are claiming they own their breathe. Every intelligent people know that Humanity did not and could never have happened by accident. That's why with all the technological advancement of the greatest Countries of the World, they still can never do without acknowledging/celebrating a higher Power. USA enthrones celebrates Jesus/Yahweh, China celebrates Dragon, UAE celebrates Allah, etc. All the greatest and the most intelligent humans on Earth agree that their is God.

Today is Sunday, many have dressed up in their finest clothes to go to the Temples of the Living GOD to worship the great CREATOR of Heaven and Earth. But, it is a very saddening reality that most of them don't know, trust or love the God they claim to worship every Sunday. This current state of Christian Faith is Nigeria is due to 4 reasons:

1. Erroneous perception about "knowing God". Pastors have made it look like it is impossible to practically know and experience God, as if that is reserved for some super humans like them alone. This is a big lie, everybody can know, hear and physically experience God in reality, if they consecrate in irreversible holiness and seek HIM with all their hearts. Jeremiah 29:13 "You shall find ME when you seek ME for Me with ALL your heart."

2. Satan's taunting of Christians to destroy their faith Satan is taunting Christians with the "evil" that has befallen holy Christians in the past. Your faith in JESUS has been subconsciously watered down by mockery of enemies of Christianity that Satan have spoken through to taunt and mock your Faith. They usually point to the likes of the Abuja Kubwua Evangelist who was killed while preaching Christ. They also gave other examples like kidnapped Pastors, Lear Suahibu, the be-headed Arab Christians, etc. They say things like your God that couldn't deliver these holy people that served HIM with the totality of their lives, while still worship HIM? What they and those discouraged by what they say do not realize is that we (both them discouraging us and we that they are discouraging) are all here for One reason: to get the reward of Eternal Life that God originally planned for us all Men. HE want all humanity to live forever, but we each need to prove to HIM that we shall not be ungrateful to HIM if HE empower us to become immortal. Whether you are a Muslim, Christian, Buddish, etc. The singular purpose of every man on Earth is to earn Eternal Life fro the CREATOR by using this short life to prove that we shall not use our eternal Life against HIM if HE grants us immortality. All other religions look up to Christians as role model when it comes to pleasing the CREATOR because we Christians have declared that Nothing can stop us from the loving and being loyal to the CREATOR of Heaven and Earth.

3. Unanswered Prayers as a result of wilderness experience. Wilderness experience is a must for every Heaven-bound Christian. The Israelites had to go through the Wilderness for 40 years before they entered into the promised Land. "Nothing venture, nothing gained" JESUS Christ has freely restored back our Right to earn Everlasting Life back to us. Satan and his demons shall later be destroy in Hellfire, but we human that have joined the Angels to do the Will of the CREATOR of All shall receive reward of eternal Life and live forever. Like it has been explained in the preceding paragraph, the trial that we experience in this World is for one major Purpose, to test us and confirm that nothing would make us to turn our back on our CREATOR, like Satan, when HE finally empowers us to leave forever. Immortality is the goal, and YAHWEH ALMIGHTY that created us is the only One that knows how to make us live forever. Immortality is what we are here in this World to earn. Never never lose focus of that, because devil shall fight you tooth and nail to ensure you turn your back against your CREATOR in order to make you not to get your awaiting reward of eternal Life.

4. The final and the most saddening is self-inflicted unanswered prayers due to refusal to flee from sin. Most Christians of this generation are too selfish and unwilling to leave sin alone. And this has given birth to serious is famine of supernatural occurrences/miracles. Many are fast losing their faith in God because their fellow sinner friend that commits same sin as them gets quicker result when he consults herbalists, demons and use charms. Isaiah 59:1 "Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear. 2But your iniquities have built barriers between you and your CREATOR" Does it annoy you that most Christians and most Pastors are afraid of demons, can't chase out demons out? Does it annoy you that they just collect tithes and offering and can't even heal the sick and raise up the deads like JESUS Christ did and promised that we shall do more? Don't just be annoyed and work in mediocrity, Christianity is practical and very real.

HOW TO GET AN UNDESTROYABLE FAITH IN CHRIST
When you've physically touched something or somebody, nobody needs to tell you that that thing or person exists. The only way to develop an undestroyable Faith is by physically encountering God. We that speak so shakelessly in Faith do so because we have had real encounter with the Holy One of Israel. If you are not ready to pray relentlessly and do all it takes to prevent evil thoughts from entering your Heart, you can never experience let alone see God. JESUS Christ says in the Book of Matthew 5:8 "Blessed are the Pure in heart, for we shall see God" That is the condition to encounter the supernatural; God. It is very possible to have a pure Heart, just be sincere and always confess to Jesus that you don't want this thought whenever evil thought try to enter. Pray relentlessly and ceaselessly that Holy Spirit should take over your Thoughts and the Source of your Thoughts. Don't stop until HE is established as the sole controller of your thought. It is after this that you shall encounter your CREATOR, and nothing would ever shake you Faith in your Creator again after you experienced HIM. HE is the most awesome experience that could ever happen to anybody. We all that did have one testimony when HE showed up; "LORD this is too much!!!" I have no words perfect for HIM, you will understand when you do, like I did by HIS infinite Grace. HalleluYAH!

In Luke 18:8b Our Lord spoke: "Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on Earth?”

Devil is seriously waging war against Christians' faith in God, people are fast losing their faith. If you are really serious about not losing the gift of eternal life that awaits those that did not allow this World system to kill their faith in Christ JESUS, download and listen to this:

"Faith is Muscle (Yes! Spiritual Muscle), the more you use it the stronger it becomes. The less you use it, the quicker it dies." Never be afraid or ashamed to exercise your Faith in your CREATOR to heal the sick, raise the death, etc. Christians are still doing it in this our very now.

Thank you JESUS YAHSHA HaMashiach!

Please give us the gist

You're very wrong my dear! The truth is that Christianity is at all time HIGH! The church is stronger, wealthier, more populated and with more influence today than it was yesterday!

Another clown with brain paralysis.SMH.

EternalBeing:
Something happen this week that shocked me to the marrow and made me to weep profusely for the Body of Christ when I got home.

Maybe yours, not mine. The thing is, such as are headed for destruction will surely get there.

It's dangerous to base your argument on meaningless assumptions. No doubt we are in end times, but arguments like this one should not be without verifiable facts.

Lolz! How dare you speak against "God people"(the church)?

Get ready to feel the wrath of "God's people"!

But do not be afraid for you're not the only one to do that when the need arose, for so did the true prophets of "God's people".

So also did John the Baptist and Jesus of "God people"!

And they all felt the wrath of "God's people" despite that what they had done was not just the right thing but what they needed to do to steer God's people back to the right path.

So let's do the needful regardless of whether we feel the wrath of "God people" or not, for it's better to feel the wrath of "God's people"(man) than to feel the wrath of God!

You say "The Christian Faith Is At An All Time Low", I say "The Church Is Dead", and we are both trying to say the same thing, the truth that God deserves a better harvest than what has become of the church, considering the quality of His sacrifice and seed He sowed.

May God get the reward that's befitting of His suffering. Amen!

p.s. How did you expect people that are not ashamed to bow down on the floor before God in the public to be ashamed of God in the public and vice versa?

This is a good news and I'm very glad about it. But don't be surprised that in half a millennium, you'll have to look for 'microscope' to look at what is left of Christianity. This is in accordance with the thummim of the Light of God Almighty which has declared that Christianity will harldy enter into the 3rd millennium.

In the third millennium, many people would have become scientific-oriented, such that they wouldn't give religion a damn in their life. Go and study the Book of Universal History for more.

Niklatians 12: 15, 16
15. And Niklas said, the noise of a world coming to an end shall last for more than two millenniums and it shall hinder development of the earth. For it shall limit thoughts and productivity.
16. But in the second millennium shall the homos arise and shake themselves off their delusions of a world coming to an end. But rather, the world of findings and development shall begin when the world of religious deceptions shall start to come to an end.

Hmmm... deep. Very deep. Lalasticlala!

The whole essence of faith is to believe in a Higher Purpose

Men of faith understood that their life is under the higher purpose and those were people who could sacrifice their being for what they believe.
Those were the kind of people that left all to take the gospel to the unreached

Such way of life crumble when half-baked Christianity and impostors came and disrupted our traditional beliefs

Now, an average Nigerian believes in all for himself

SEEN

Fddbvx

And this is supposed to be a church. There is something the Europeans doesn't want to tell us about this Worshop of Jesus Christ. Is this a kind of idol worshiping or what?

Celebrate the imprisonment of religious gods with us!!!
It's no more news that Yahweh, Allah, Moloch, Mazda, Enlil and other gods of religions are currently held in a spiritual cage. It's already 3 years since they've been subjected to this imprisonment by the gods of science.
It's time for mind evolution!!! Celebrate the 3rd Year Anniversary of Yahweh and Allah's imprisonment with us on the link below. Hooorrraaaayyyy!!!!

I thought the church was matching forward and the gate of hell cannot prevail

Why won't their faith be at an all time low?

When it seems as if they are the ones that now care and provide for their God instead of the other way round.

You are very Correct in saying some Believers faith is low.. it's a sign of the Last days as prophecised by the Bible.

But at the Same Time, Many People are coming to JESUS CHRIST In heavy numbers all over the World, even in places that people never Expected.. e.g. Iran, North Korea, Russia, China, Saudi Arabia etc

The Bible says The First shall be Last and the Last First.

Heaven is a Personal Race..
The Bible Must be Fulfilled.. All we need to do as individuals is to Strive to ensure that we are not among those to fall and fulfill that part of the Bible.

We are in the Very Last Lap of the Race. And we need to Apply for The GRACE and MERCIES of GOD to Complete the Race.

" HE That Endureth to the End Shall be Saved"

May GOD Give Us Understanding..

Why say "praise the Lord " to get people's attention? That's a wrong motive

You praise God cos you wanna praise the Lord....no more, no less.

2. Halelluyah is not the only acceptable response to "Praise the Lord "

People are simply getting wiser. Most can now see through the charade of the whole fantasy stories. end of story.

CrestMan:
You're very wrong my dear! The truth is that Christianity is at all time HIGH! The church is stronger, wealthier, more populated and with more influence today than it was yesterday!

does any of that count?

And what influence are you talking about? The church has zero influence today compared to a few centuries ago when the pope is virtually the king of the whole world.

The problem with most of you is that you just type things, no hard facts.

Even in Nigeria today, the influence of the churches cannot be felt. All we see is 'cursing and more cursing'.

The Muslims are a thousand and 1 times more affluent and you know it.

Let's be sincere with ourselves, saying something different won't change reality

The conmen pastors are not helping matter. Its all about money and giving

Christianity is really the dumbest religion ever!!

Seeing or hearing things that are not there is a mental illness

Christians come in three categories, the sheep, which is the average churchgoer, the brainwashed sheep, to which category I'm sure you belong

And the scammers, to which men like kumuyi, oyedepo and Dr Chris the fool oyakhilome belong.

These ones are just after your tithe.

Foolish sheep, following scammers and listening to brainwashed idiots whose only proof of god are some blurry videos obtained from YouTube.

What kind of God will allow an affliction like Buhari to arise twice....

Kidnappers everywhere
Hunger everywhere
Poverty capital of the world
Suicide capital of the world
Depression capital of the world
Unemployment everywhere
Efcc has abandoned the work of arresting politicians with bullion vans to chase boys with tattoos and benzs

Nigeria is dead

I was just laughing today when I remembered that their god curses. As in...how come the creator of the world is cursing his creatures with anger? Doesn't he know what he created intoto ?

Muslims are allowed to comment on Christain threads

But same can't be done on their own

Nairaland is like Nigeria under Buhari
