I swear, atheists posts are like sharp thorns in the minds of theists, that's why they seem to freak out, throw insults or avoid the conversation when they see one. grin

I don't get u bro!

We need to a have a Relationship with JESUS CHRIST.

Christianity is not a Religion as people say!
Being a Christian is having a Relationship with JESUS. In a lay man's word it is Having JESUS in you.

A Sinner man /woman does not have JESUS irrespective of Whatever you claim you are.

A Christian is not a Sinner and a Sinner is Not a Christian.. 1 John 3:8-9

Having a Relationship with JESUS is the key!

You do that By Acknowledging you are a Sinner
You Confess your sins to JESUS
You Ask JESUS to come into you. See the Prayer of Salvation on our Signature.

If you do that and you mean it, you are automatically saved! You are born again!

You need to begin a solid Foundation with JESUS.

You have The Holy Bible to guide you
You could also get a Bible Believing Church were you will be taught to know more about JESUS.

Don't fail to repent whenever you go astray!


Excuse me sir!
@the bolded.
I think you need some sleep. When you wake up, you'll probably type something more meaningful.
Christianity is a religion. There's no argument about that.
Unfortunately, most of the people we have today parading themselves as practising Christianity are actually practising denominationalism, "churchiism", congregationalism and dogmatism.

With my personal Experience, Observation and inner conviction, I think I dont want to be part of any religion again. This thing is truely an opium of illusion meant for people who cant take their destiny in their hands and for a sheeple masses.

Despite withdrawing from religion I found myself even having a better moral compass which I cant explain. We are throwing away common sense, hardwork and universal principles to leave in illusion. At the end of my observation I have come to the conclusion that its what you do for yourself that counts more.

When I see poor people dying of hungry in a country which have the capacity to be the global industrial hub I know we have throw away common sense, Nigeria biggest investment to South Africa is Religious buildings (Church) while here in Nigeria the South Africans brought us MTN, DSTV, SHOP RITE e.t.c which employs thousands of people and gives profit to our Investors inventing in the stocks and shares of those companies I realise religion is lack of common sense.

No amount of religion can make you succesful without application of common sense.
No amount of religion can make your marriage succesful without application of common sense and consideration for your partner.
No amount of religion can a nation grow and prosper without application of common sense, productivity and good policies.

At the end of it I think am leaving religion, its not worth it. Even uprightness and moral comes from a person inner conviction and not because of religion.

Welcome to the Good life. Now you know who is spending your money and on what. By the way Who is You. Cheers

Good that you are quitting religion!

Jesus Christ extends an invitation to You!

Religion kills but Jesus saves.

Become a member of God's family.

This present evil world is not controlled by God but by Satan and it will soon be over for good but things are still to get worse.

The end times are on us.

Satan brought religion into the world not God.

Please allow Jesus into your life!

You guys always miss the full meaning of religion.

It doesn't say lsam or Christianity or Buddhism, etc. But any belief or something you are devoted to; can be categorized as religion.

You must not belong to the popular ones.
Before you fulfil a religious person.

Right now I can classify you as someone who has changed religion or belief.

Are you happy? If Jesus was all you needed in this life, you won't be here daily, pouring your repetitive bile on every front page thread.


All your head is full of memory verse and Jesus Christ. I'm just curious - do you have a life outside the Bible? Without speaking about the Bible, can you hold a three minute conversation on any topic?

You see, you have become like the Pharisees and Saduccees who wore their religion for all to see - so they could be counted, so men could praise them. They screamed loudest that they knew God, yet when God stood in human form before them, they failed im.

Hope the Christ mind in you doesn't see this as an attack, rather just a piece of advice - admittedly maybe unwanted

Winner chapel, employs over 25,000 people in Nigeria alone, more than some States, so Christian institutions actually creat employment opportunities.

Now lemme introduce, you to Christianity, which is not a religion but a way of life, Christianity is Spiritual, you only see God, if you have faith that he exist and you diligently seek him.

You came to being because an intelligent creator (God) created you and put you on this intelligently designed planet, i have experienced God through Jesus Christ, and so if you will only believe, you will experience him too

Please get understanding. The answers to your questions are obvious if you stop thinking according to flesh and beging to think spirit.

These things happened in the flesh but have a spiritual signification - this is why God wanted it that way. God is a spirit, remember. His ways are higher(spiritual) than ours(carnal).

E.g when we see blood/death, God sees life. He is able to raise the dead back to life. When we see death of the innocent. God sees purity and sinlessness. God was pleased with Christ's death because it would save everyone, because he loves everyone. You might then ask, why did God NEED these things to happen ? Couldn't He just snap his fingers and make everything right ?? God couldn't, not out of incapability but out of integrity. God can't break his own laws. That would make him a sinner, which He isn't. His laws must be obeyed, even by Him.

The blood of Christ had to be shed, because that was the only way to pay/make atonement/fulfill for the law of for the sin and death over and against all men. God made men subject to sin because if he didn't, we would know good and evil to be like Him. His vision is for every last one of us to be like Him. Selah.

I will stop here. Get to know Yahweh. You can get started by observing and understanding his laws that guide your very existence and the entire world he made as well.

Finally, Jesus wailed on the cross because God indeed forsook him at that moment. Jesus had God living in him all his life. At that moment, Jesus being in the flesh felt total absence of his Father and he felt lost at that moment. Why was it important that Jesus feel this way, you might ask ?

HE HAD TO FEEL IT BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT DEATH FEELS LIKE. JESUS CAME TO DIE AND HE HAD TO DIE COMPLETELY. HE HAD TO DIE WHILE ALIVE AND HE DIED AND BECAME DEAD FOR THREE DAYS. HE HAD TO FULLY PAY WITH FULL DEATH SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH IT. NOW IF YOU PUT OFF THE FLESH, YOU PUT ON LIFE ALMOST IMMEDIATELY. "to be absent from the body IS to be at home with the Lord"

Tell Jesus thank you.

[/s]
Complete nonsense!
Jesus was charged with the crime of blasphemy and sedition and was killed by the government (Roman authority- Cesar)

He didn't die for anyone's sins and no one can.

Early theologians in their mischievousness and imaginations formulated all those nonsense about him dying for their sins since sacrifices of the highest purities which they think Jesus represents is the highest gift they can give to the God in their IMAGINATIONS since. Since the act of sacrifice was Normal then. Remember the story of cane and able, Abraham etc.

The theologians felt that a good man and a great teacher shouldn't and died like that and there must have been a reason...

So they came up with that rubbish. Even Jesus himself will be amazed by such foggery and bullshîts

some times i wonder why churches build 150000 capacity buildings when such resources could be used to invested in the agricultural industry or textile industry in Nigeria where a pact is agreed with the federal government and lots of jobs would be created will not only benefit the citizens but also the church because of the heavy returns that would come from it. But, they prefer to build walls that would bring in more tithers.

Religion is not bullshit as u said.
Don't contradict yourself.

You just believe that there is a true religion-which is love
That means that Love is a religion
If you believe that love is a true religion and still say that religion is bullshit, I sees it as contradictory statement.

Any religion that fell short of preaching and practicing love is not a good religion.
Any religious person that fails to practice love that was taught in his religion is not a good religion follower.
Any person that believes in love and want the love only for himself is a selfish believer of love as a religion.


The kind of religion I see in Nigeria is bullshit...

All this essay you dey write does not change that fact.

It is not a religion. It will help many of you here if you want.
If you don't want, just keep quiet. We all must tow our own path ourselves.
