You reached that conclusion in isolation, have a look at his profile and read that post again then you will see how it relates to Christianity

I know what Christianity is and I insist that post doesn't define it. Whatever he said was simply his opinion.

justwise:


Yes.

That's not Christianity but mysticism

justwise:


This is the aspect of Christianity I detest. Deceiving people with all sorts of unproven spiritual mongering

Correlation between what he said and Christianity?

1.Jesus is the only way to God, John 14:6
This invariably means those who don't believe in Jesus have no business in heaven.
Christians worldwide have an estimated population of 2.4billion people
Islam records an estimate of 1.9 billion adherents, Hindu has an estimated 1.1bn adherents. The remaining world's population have their own beliefs which includes atheism.
If Jesus is the only way to God, what happens to those who don't believe in him? Hell? Well, the Bible suggests so.

2. There are a lot of complications and contradictory remarks in the Bible- a verse says don't drink, another says "Drink for your stomach sake", or "Do not drink wherein excess."
Malachi 3:10 a famous Bible verse on tithing speaks about bringing your tithe to the storehouse (church, maybe)
Deuteronomy 14:22-26 says otherwise, it says "you should drink and be merry with your tithe". I'm seriously beginning to doubt the credibility of the Bible. Maybe the translators' fault or God told writers different stories on the same issue. Read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John's account of Jesus and see real contradictions.

3. Does God answer prayers? Well, I'm not really sure about that. Someone might be suffering from malaria, the person takes drugs and still prays, the drugs work, but the person thanks God. Or a successful surgical operation, instead of thanking the doctor, they thank God. Some illnesses that would have been treated led to deaths because a certain congregation who were supposed to take the ill persons to the hospital, circled around praying. Faith without work isn't it still dead?
I remember when I had stomach ulcer, it was really terrible, I prayed and made several promises to God that if He took away the ulcer, I'd drink no more alcohol and will be more devout in worshipping Him. That didn't solve anything though, I stopped drinking and took to taking my drugs more seriously. Weeks later, I was well. I returned to drinking and after a few months, the ulcer resurfaced. That was when I realized I really needed to quit drinking. Prayers wouldn't have solved that issue.
I spent 80% of 2019 at home because of my misgivings about God's existence.
I really wish I could be convinced about God's existence because I'm not even happy to be away from Church because of the views of friends and family.

4. Children of God, or so called children of God tend to suffer more tribulations, hard times and desperate moments, a lot of them scream "Vanity upon Vanity" when secular people live in luxury or spend extravagantly. God tends to turn his back on those who worship Him especially when they need Him most.
The 1933 Holocaust and mass murder of Jews to the tone of 6m was a clear indication that God turns His eyes against His people
Repulsive comments are highly welcome

If these are the only reasons for your wanting to identify as an atheist, then I'm sorry, you never really understood the faith you were practicing.

There are answers to each of the questions you posed there and they form the very basic or foundational knowledge of the Christian faith. That you were not schooled in these things is as a result of the dearth of the teachings of the gospel by ministers, many of whom do not even understand what they are practicing.

What you need is the exact knowledge of your identity in the immortal reality, and this by the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I put it to you that you have not yet heard the gospel.

The more you try to attach meanings to these dreams, the more you get them.

Hebrews 2:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

Christmas did not originate from Christ, It has absolutely nothing to do with Christ Jesus. It is pegan feast.

Paul already addressed this:

Romans 14:5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

14:6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

Ken4Christ:
Holding camp meeting to kill perceived enemies. Dr Olukoya should please repent of this evil teachings and forms of prayers before it is too late.

How many witches did our Lord Jesus killed. He died for everybody including witches. I have seen some people involved in witchcraft activities saved by the power of God and they are now preaching the gospel.

Not just MFN. This prayer forms have spread like cancer to other denominations including the RCCG and Salvation Ministries. They are not just consistent with the teachings of our Lord Jesus. We should stop killing perceived enemies through prayers.

So true. "Kill them before they kill you" is not a Christian theme. It's an advanced form of witchcraft.

I don't know what you guys are talking about here. Me, I'm planning to have 7. God will provide

Twob:


Please let me know your reasons. As for me, I am considering the MPG values (fuel consumption) and strength

If fuel consumption is a major consideration, then go for Rav4. Honda pilot is fitted with a V6 engine and is a 4WD, so you wouldn't get same MPG as an I4 Rav4. But the pilot provides you with more power and better handling; better interior finish and space. The pilot is a sturdier ride than Rav4.

Different class of vehicles. Rav4 is a CUV; Pilot is an SUV. Depending on your need, but I would pick an Honda any day over a Toyota.

Being introverted hasn't helped me especially in business. I struggle to advertise what I do to people. Working on that part already though.

I do have a problem with 2 introverted people getting .married. not sure it will be any fun. I met my wife through a mutual friend and she is the complete opposite. She is the life of the party. At our wedding, she had to dance for two. Lol. Local man was just embarrassing his generation. Luckily though, she is helping me come out of the shell. I now find myself being able to do things I wouldn't do on a normal day. I would just prefer that our children take up her nature.

You can't afford to be ashamed in 2020. Join Headstart Africa on Facebook if you've not already.

Relationship between two introverts are no good. They will bore themselves out in the long run.

What a good time to be a Chelsea hater

Ishilove:

No it isn't o. May God not allow you be in a situation where you need these ministries.

Honestly, I wouldn't. The logic behind these ministries are mostly based on human experience which are subjective, and not directly from the gospel. Because something can be found in the bible does not make it gospel truth. This is where many ministers get it wrong. A believer does not need deliverance but mind renewal.

Destiny transferring meals indeed. These men are liars. They prey on men by instilling unnecessary fear in them. "You are dead, and your life is his with Christ in God". How did the enemy get access to your destiny when your life is hidden in Christ? Deliverance ministry is a scam.

Mary was not in any way better than other women in Israel at that time. The scriptures says she was FAVOURED. This was.irrespective of what she did or didn't do. In fact, Mary as well as other people living before the coming of grace through Christ were sinners.

Lol, when we couldn't even produce ordinary airline logo

This is to christian couples: Denying your spouse of sex is an action that falls under the biblical definition of the term adultery. If you have issues, treat it head on. Sex shouldn't be used as a bargaining chip.

Fellow N/Landers

The future is unpredictable but nobody is praying for bad thing. This question have been bothering me for long. I thought it wise to it with good people of Nairaland and seeking for helpful advice.

As a man, is it advisable to marry the lady who loves you more than you love her?

please advice

This question is borne out of selfishness. Loose it!

I put it openly that the so called revelations from those sisters purportedly saved from hell are false. Any body that is properly grounded in the gospel of Jesus Christ could easily through it. These are false prophets sent to hoodwink believers into bondage through fear.

Most of them are even broke ASF. One decided to take me out last week Sunday after consistent begging from his side. He started complain about how he's been meeting gold diggers in the past. he was trying to manipulate me. he took me to a place. The idiot couldn't afford to buy wine of #18,500 and claimed to be working o. In this age and time, you can't afford to spend 30k on a woman you want to impress, shame. Had to block the idiot before he waste my Time. and I conclude in my mind" no pussy for him"

Wonderful homo sapien

Beverlyjean:
A friend of mine is in desperate need of advice... She had unprotected sex with a married man... Her fear now is that she feels it might affect her in the future because she knew he was married before she did it...

She regrets her actions... She said she never planned it, although the man had always been disturbing her, but she felt she could control the situation when she visited him, but one thing led to another after a couple of drinks and they ended up having unprotected sex.

The man in question is old enough to be her father according to her but she still doesn't know why she did what she did because at that time she was having relationship issues. She has ended all ties with the man but her fear is that if what she did will affect her in the future because she doesn't want her future husband to ever cheat on her.

She is so broken now and confused... Again she doesn't know how her next boyfriend will think she's that type of person that sleeps with married men if he finds out what she did, because her boyfriend ended the relationship when she told him, although it happened before they met. She doesn't want her next boyfriend to treat her with disrespect if he finds out or make her loose her value.

The consequence is what she is suffering presently - a defiled conscience. This is an avenue for the accuser to have a feast over her. Her fear right now is a tool in their hands, because she would end up becoming and experiencing what she fears. She must forgive herself and purge her conscience. The father forgives her already and her slate is wiped clean.

She should hence do what is right. Flee fornication!

. The Angels strived to eat and drink the body and blood of Christ but NO CAN DO. Some times my God like spirit tells me the Angels in heaven begged GOD to allow them come to earth. n when they come. then u hear i have three sons and two daughters just like anyother human on this our earth. all of us here are once Angels in heaven. and if u must come drop your wings.
I LOVE GOD.SO MUCH.

Bro, you have to properly understand the gospel of Jesus Christ before you can accurately discern what the Spirit is communicating to you. I'm sure you heard some things, but the light with which you looked at them is different.

Eating the body and drinking the blood of Jesus is a symbolic term that is used to express the mutual participation of the church in the sacrifice of Jesus on account of their faith in it. These things are specially reserved for us who are heirs of salvation. Angels are not heirs. They are ministering spirits created to inhabit eternity. Believers are uncreated spirits who dwell in immortality. There is no way angels can become like us because they were created.

A certain 'angel' tried, and his nature became perverted. He was called Lucifer, and he is the devil. Don't get things mixed up. Men were never once angels. We are different orders of being.

Your theology is mixed up. One moment you are acknowledging the divinity of the believer, the other, you are identifying him with sin.

There is no 'price' of holiness left to pay. Jesus paid it all. By one sacrifice, he has perfected FOREVER them that are sanctified. All believers have received eternal perfection; there is no losing it.

Again, believers are not in a some what competition with angels. Their makeup is totally different from ours. They acknowledge and glory in it. Angels love to serve us. They love to be commanded by us. They most enjoy watching us when we take the posture of worship, because in doing this, we emit colours of light which are a manifestation of our immortal essence, which was before concealed in the Father but is now being made manifest by us.

Tithing is not a new testament principle. None of the early disciples paid nor collected tithes. Many still pay tithe today not because they take it as a matter of compulsion, but because in it they find something with which they can boast about. This is pride! They want to say things like, God has been blessing me all round because I have been faithful in paying my tithes. In this, they make the blood and sacrifice of Jesus of none effect.

Self righteousness is a deceit. There is nothing like, 'I do it because it works for me'. Even the herbalist performs his sacrifices because it works for him! Results are not a proof of your Christianity. Whatever principle you take must be grounded in the finished work of Christ.

God does not require any further sacrifice from you. He is not an irresponsible father to require you to sow some 'seeds' before he performs his obligation towards you. Even you earthly father won't do such.

Believers are however encouraged to give, such as is necessary for administration in the body, and furtherance of the gospel.

ceeceeco:
The only righteous person is the person who's keeping the ten (10) commandments, if you can find one, then you've found a righteous person.

Is that what your Pastor told you? He lied. The new man in Christ is a law unto himself and is not subject to the dictates of the old covenant.

tobechi20:
Is a righteous person one who is compassionate, kind, generous?

Or is he one who just gets along with others for the sake of peace?

Or is he one who just speaks up against evil in his environment

Or he who does not steal, commit adultery etc.while not committing any good (ASSUME GOOD AND BAD IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE) Sct

That is, is righteousness based on the good act we do or bad act we don't or constant thought and speech on good and bad act.

Two scenarios:

MR X worked in a government establishment where fund was constantly embezzled. He spoke against it constantly and never partook in them. The crooks set him up and almost got sacked in the process. Finally, he was posted to another government organization

In this new organization, he didn't speak up against corruption. he would watch an keep mute. At times,he is giving a part of corrupt proceed. He decided to use the money to feed less privileged, pay stranger school free etc.

IN WHICH OF THE ABOVE CASES CAN WE CALL HIM A RIGHTEOUS MAN.

The picture you are trying to paint is not that of a righteous man, but a moral man. The man who is righteous is the one who is Christ. All believers are Christ; all believers are righteous. Righteousness is a gift of grace that is imputed on account of the finished work of Jesus Christ.

I see a lot of people do not understand this piece of information. The gist is that Ghana, in the last three months, has become the biggest IMPORTER of Nigerian products. The value of the goods it bought FROM Nigeria was quoted as roughly $2.4bn.

If this is true, it only shows that Ghana depends far much more on Nigeria than Nigeria depends on it. The interesting aspect of this news is that it is reported that more than 97% of the goods that Ghana bought from Nigeria were non-petroleum articles. This is also a positive for Nigeria.

The relationship between any two African countries should be that of mutual respect, two-way productivity and shared brotherhood.

Now, we need to invest heavily in power, metallurgy, electronics and functional education/research. It is about time we made our companies competitive enough to break the South African hegemony in choice sectors.

Great. Stats prior to the border closure showed a huge trade deficit between both countries. This goes to show that Ghana has been benefitting immensely from smuggling activities in the region. The border closure has just brought things to light.
