Christians are meant to be courageous and bold in every facet of life.
The truth is that I have discovered many of us are timid, not ready to take the bull by the horn.

Because they know all the stories are fake. They can neither heal the sick or raise any dead. Even their pastor's are better at cheating on their wives and boasting than doing anything tangible.

The only thing it seems that Jesus helps Christians do these days is to look beautiful in photographs after using filters and get jobs in a company after using their connection. You will see a girl post a photograph and say "looking good because of Jesus". cheesy cheesy

When you ask them to do the things that Jesus says they will be able to do, they can't. They will tell you to come to their church on Sunday or watch their pastor on TV with stage actors. But they themselves are impotent. None of them have actually seen a man they know that was dead but came back to life. Or a blind man in their environment get healed by their pastor. Even all the cripples in their churches whose addresses and history is known to everybody have not been healed to this day. The people getting healed are usually anonymous people they hadn't met before that day. So they know Christianity is all lies and fairytales.

That's why they are timid. Even the OP hasn't done one-tenth of what Jesus did. Yet Jesus said Christians will do greater things. That should tell you that modern Christianity is a sham.

Cos the interpretations given to Nigerian Christians is based on "fear", hence, fear have become our dominating factor.

Though the question should be "why are Nigerian Christians timid?". Europeans Christians I know are courageos people.

I have seen people healed. Humans generally are fearful; It's not just Christians. However, a Christian is called to be fearless. He can reach this noble level by having a correct revelation of God and being perfect in love, as well as obeying the commandment not to fear!

OP just say you are timid and you always flow with your timid kind, maybe you should change your mentality and circle of friends, and I hope you know that for the fact that someone hates physical violence does not mean he is timid.

Like what exactly do you mean by taking the bull by the horn?

The last I checked bravery is not same as tempting or putting God to test. So if thats what you mean, sorry, it doesn't define Christians.

Many of us

Really?
Then you need to stop being afraid for the Bible says God has not given us the spirit of fear but of love and a sound mind. So any time fear comes, counter it with the above word of God and it will cease.

Its the devil that instills fear in people but if you know the entourage of angels sorrounding you, you'll relax.

A king went on a battle and became afraid as soon as he sited their opponents in large numbers from afar. He turned to God and God showed him the army of angels sorrounding them and the fear ceased.

Always study the Bible to help you understand who you are and where you stand as a child of God.

Shalom.
