you see that cow that was asking you all those questions?

i would not take a job from such a person even if the salary is $ 1,000,000,000,000,000 dollars

I would not like to be in the same place with such a person.

if people in heaven are like that, then I rather remain on earth.

rubbish.

ProfAmaben:

If your story isn't for everyone, why are you posting it on a public platform?
You should give details about the job you applied for otherwise, you just posted trash that's baseless and meaningless.
You Catholics are the worst on Earth when it comes to segregation, you deserve what you got!
Thank You!, how can a catholic call himself born again?
born again to holy mary or joseph?

There's no where in the bible where sprikles or partial baptism was done. Since we are after christ, full immersion only counts
You're carnal minded and live by the flesh... I hope you're not sent from the pit of hell.. God gave his church the power to baptise, however they choose

Good day nairalanders,

Sorry I have to write this, I have decided to keep it to myself but, I decided to let it out.

Just like every other job seekers who are looking for jobs either to switch to a better pay or change environment.

Though I have been out of job since the COVID-19 pandemic started, I worked in a retail company, but since we have not been called back, I decided to search for job.

I saw an advert and decided to submit my application, just like every other people, luckily after one week or two, I got a mail that I have been shortlisted for their online test and after I pass, I will move to the next stage which is virtual interview before coming to their office to sign my employment letter.

After the mail, like 3 days I got a mail containing my ogin and password for the test, fiam, I opened and I did the test.

After like another 3days, I got a mail from them that I passed the test and i should be expecting a whatsap call from one of their head office in Europe.

Luckily I got the call, from one of the European country number from a Nigerian, believing is the call that would change my life forever.

After the normal introduction and other things like the job functions, the real bible questions started which I was able to scale through it.

Towards the end of the virtual interview, the last question was are you a born again Christian, have you been baptised and what denomination are you?.

And I said yes I'm a born again Christian, I've been baptised and I'm a Roman Catholic.

At the end of my speech his response was, is not possible to be a Catholic and be born again.

He said once you were not taken to the river to be baptised that's not a baptism.

Catholics are not born again Christians and I'm not baptised too just because I was not taken to the river to be baptised.

His last statement was, you actually have the experience but, we need other denomination not Catholic that the job entails somebody who is a real born again Christian.

That was how I lost the job, thinking today being my birthday, I will go to church and do special thanks giving.
This sounds very one kind. What kind of job is that they ask about your faith. Oyinbo no dey send those things and wont ask that kind of nonsense

The man is right. Sorry. The Roman Catholic christains are not born again and baptism by sprinkling is not baptism. True baptism is by immersion, fully dipped inside the water.
You're carnal Nd must be sent from the pit of hell fire.. Only God knows his own and jesus had no church.. Be gone tempter of brethren
Re: How I Lost A Potential Job Because Of My Denomination by MhizzMarcelina: 3:50pm On Sep 13, 2020

You can't make me sin. And I think other people that have been passing judgement have sinned.
To convince me that , what you wrote actually happened, kindly disclose the company and the nature of the work.
This is even an avenue that will make real people to help you if your case is genuine.
But if you can't disclose, kindly withdraw your fake story. Even people that have been molested are no longer afraid of coming out. There is no shame in this, kindly unveil your identity and let us know the company and the nature of the work you applied for.
Thanks.

All I know is her story isnt complete. She told it to suit herself. Meanwhile, the nature of the job is another thing. I know catholic organizations that don't employ other denominations too.

Thanks,Though You qualified but You were dropped. Pls Reat Ur Mind. You were not Judged. Clearly You were told,the Job is not Meant for a Catholic Christian but Other Sect Preferred by the Employers. So Move on
However,To be a Born Again Christian, You Must Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as Your Lord and Personal Saviour. You MUST Believe and Accept His Sacrifice and Atonement for Our Sins and Take the Scriptures as Ur Final AUTHORITY on the Balance of Truth, filled with the Holy Spirit Baptism,not just Water Baptism, not to talk of Sprinkling. We are not talking about Denominational Creed here,Pls. Martin Luther of Blessed Memory Could not Stay under the Catholic Dogma after He came to the Realisation of the True Gospel of Jesus Christ, So CAN YOU AFTER BEING BORN AGAIN? Pls Seek the Lord in True and Genuine Repentance and Conversion,Pls. Not Engaging in Penance and Confession to a Rev.Father. Christ sets Free and only His Shed Blood is Required for ur Cleansing and Purifications not Holy Water and incense Burning. You are engaged in Religious activities not the New Testamental Creed of True Christianity,Where Holiness and Personal Integrity is what God Demands from us.Thanks.
Born again isn't about church denominations.. That's what coconut heads like u don't understand.. Most of u here are sent from hell to cause disunity in the body of christ

My reason for posting this is not to garner cheap like, but to let people know that even where people think they would find solace, they are being rejected there too.

If you like believe or not, I'm not here to force it on you.

Have a nice day

I don't believe the crap you wrote up there especially with it coming from a Europe based firm. Mention the details of the company
I believe it's real. I have experienced such inclination first hand. First my daughter entered a competition and was passed over cuz her was Faith wasn't right with them. Second, a would be biz partner is bringing religion into the mix via suggestions of fellowship with her Church people in my locale. I already know that would be an intrusion on my private life, and I 'munder no financial pressure at all to cave in. So, I will wait and see if the biz will fly without religion. If not, bye, bye biz; welcome, peace and serenity in my private life!

People like you don't believe anything unless the experience it. The poster doesn't need tell you about the job he applied, because already you have decided not believe him. I have an uncle who refused to help any of my siblings just because we are Catholic and he is a pastor.. He tried to entice us to be a born again, which literally means changing to a pentacostal church, dropping my catholic faith. The poster should just let it slide. At God's time you will get the job reserved for him.
u don't have sense.

Judgement should be based on facts not emotions.. nonsense!

Do you mean because they said born again, so Catholics are not born again?

Are you really a Catholic? Catholics don't usually identify themselves as been born-again na. Real Catholics don't...I understand that we have hybrids now that tend to lean towards Pentecostalism but that's the exception not the rule. Mind you, I am not suggesting anyway that Catholics don't know God or anything like that.
The job is clearly a faith- based one. And it was clearly stated, according to you, that applicants must be born-again. With what I know about Catholic generally, I too may not hire you. Unless I have had an encounter with you personally.

Tell us the job you applied for,that demanded you been a born again to perform it. I don't believe your nicely written story. Unless you applied for a clergy work in a church or in a company owned and run with church resources,eg mission schools, church publishing outlets etc.

I have been going through the comments to see anyone that got wisdom. Sir, your wisdom is great . You don't follow the crowd. You got analytical power of judgement.

Yes, Catholic are not born again Christian with their doctrine though you don't need a river for water baptism but it must be baptism by immersion.

You cant be born again and be quoting "Holy Mary pray for me". We were not taught to honour Mary or pray like that

If we Christian's don't like each other and we begin to segregate between denomination, I don't see why this country won't divide into two.


I wanted to let it slide that is one of those things when job hunting, but I just have to let the cat out of the bag, because I don't want to start thinking about it as today is my birthday, I need to free my mind.

Don't antagonise them because of their principle, the same way we are going to be judged on the last day (by principle) that's why many will say "but I did that, I did this in the name of our Lord"

Ask yourself how was Jesus baptised

Another set of Christian from another denomination...So what does that signifies to you? the whole RELIGION is a SCAM.....

Even in most Pentecostal churches, you need to be their member or have one or two certificates from series of the church's spiritual program to scale through a job interview or to be eligible. they even call it ''Added advantage. is that our Christianity should be?

I'm stiil waiting for that judgement day, let's see our God's Secretary will start ruling cases.

churches like Dunamis, living faith, redeem and so many others are guilty of the aforementioned. yes! I mentioned them! DM me on my WhatsApp if you're a member of one of them, let's fight! this forum is too small....
