Workch: Of course it's not a religion, its a scam. They call it a relationship with God and Jesus. This relationship requires praying, fasting, and going to worship centers and trying to serve a supposedly creator of the world (creator of the world... isnt that laughable?). Same thing every religion does. My question is, how in the world do these people feel they are communicating to the creator of this world and not feel insane? Imagine u have access to be the son or have relationship with common Tinubu or Dangote, u sure will feel this relationship, no need to convince anyone... people will naturally flock around you. how much more have relationship with the creator of this world who supposedly loves you unconditionally and wants the best for you. Yet you are here running round and round trying to prove him... The creator of this world with multiple planets that has existed for billions of years is ur father and common fuel subsidy removal or Covid 19 is getting u to run helter skelter.. SMH. let's keep deceiving ourselves. 1 Like |

The love of God for us John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. When Adam sinned, he lost the direct access he initially had with God. (Genesis 3) God decided to send his only begotten son (Jesus) to pay the price for our sins on the cross of calvary because of his love for us. When Christ resurrected, he restored all privileges that we once had and brought redemption to us all. All we need is to believe that he died for our sin and has once again granted us direct access with God. No longer through an intermediary! (Mathew 27:50-53). Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. If our earthly parents care so much for us, how much more our father in heaven! (Luke 11:11-13). Godâs love for us is infinite. He has promised to supply all our needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philipians 4:19). Prayer of Salvation Lord Jesus, I accept and acknowledge you as my personal lord and savior. I sincerely ask that you forgive my sins. Come into my life and pour out your spirit on me. By faith, I receive the promise of the father, which is the holy spirit. (John 14:16) I thank you for the price that you paid for me on the cross of calvary. Thank you for my redemption. I pray that your power, grace and favor will abide with me now and forever more. Amen. |

Workch:yeah,we cant dwell on that,but ur children will make u talk about it. |

HellVictorinho6:Well, I won't stop my children from going to church with her. The thing is, I will always tell them to be rational in everything they do including religious choices. Going to church will help them see the flaws in religion, so it will make sense when I start coaching them on how not to be irrational. 2 Likes 1 Share |

FxMasterz: I was expecting this stupid excuse, the adults around are always spiritually blind, mtweeew. "3 years old", "if only they could talk", where in this picture did you claim to be praying for anyone? We're definitely not talking about the same thing.

temi1290: You probably mentioned the wrong person. If adults don't do things to keep their eyes open because of their wickedness, children who are pure would see what adults don't see. |

wegevv: It is not hard all. The god that the Christians (the Abrahamic god) believe in does not exist because most of the attributes given to this god do not conform to the reality of this world. If a god exists, it does not have these attributes and thus cannot be the same god Christians or Muslims or Jews believe in. 2 Likes |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 8:33am On Jun 30, 2023 |
LordReed: Lol the God that created this world would not have to conform to the realities of the world he created just like a software engineer does not have to conform to the realities of a game he designed |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by Maynmann: 8:37am On Jun 30, 2023 |
wegevv:The software engineer sourced the materials of his game outside of himself, if your god created everything, where did he source the material from to create everything? And do characters in a game have free will? Havenât the software engineer set up all the motives of the game characters from beginning to end, assigning the characters with whatever fate he wishes them? 2 Likes |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 8:45am On Jun 30, 2023 |
Maynmann: I have no idea. The fact that I donât know that doesnât disprove there is a God just like the created intelligence within the game has no idea where the software engineer sourced the material. I donât need to know any of that just yet â¤ď¸ |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by Maynmann: 8:48am On Jun 30, 2023 |
wegevv:You are just regurgitating what they told you. The intelligence within the game also doesnât worship or believe in the software engineer. Does the intelligence within the game also claim that the software engineer created everything? Wonât that make the intelligence within the game stupid? Imagine a Apple laptop claiming Tim cook is omnipotent. How did the intelligence within the game know that the softwareâs engineer created everything? What idea does the intelligence within the game has? What idea do you have? 2 Likes |

LordReed: Jokes, how can and why should God's attributes conform to this world? Do you conform to your shit since you made it? You smell like it and have the same colour and shape i guess/ When i say you are a comedian, i say the truth and lie not. |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 8:59am On Jun 30, 2023 |
Maynmann: I have been responding to my specific claim that it would be very difficult to disprove the existence of a Christian God. Now youâre talking about something else so Iâll reply to that (even though if you read my other replies in this thread Iâve already addressed it): Youâre implying that people like me are stupid/crazy for believing in said God. I can understand why youâd say that. If youâre relying on just human logic then yes youâre correct. I believe faith is individual and only attained through personal experiences. No one can scientifically prove beyond doubt to everyone that God exists. But that doesnât prove that he doesnât exist either So on that point we actually agree â¤ď¸ |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by Maynmann: 9:02am On Jun 30, 2023 |
wegevv:Disproving the isrealite god yahweh is easy as disproving zeus. I didnât imply anything. I ask a question. The intelligence within the game also doesnât worship or believe in the software engineer. Does the intelligence within the game also claim that the software engineer created everything? Wonât that make the intelligence within the game stupid? Imagine a Apple laptop claiming Tim cook is omnipotent. zeus is a God that has been disproved, the Christian God, yahweh has too, even allah, Odin etc. Or do you agree these Gods exist alongside your christian god? If no, how were you able to âscientificallyâ disprove them? 2 Likes |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 9:08am On Jun 30, 2023 |
Maynmann: And I answered your question. Yes it would make the intelligence within the game stupid. I accept that as a Christian others will consider me stupid. Happy now? My faith is individual and based on my personal experiences which has given me conviction. I canât logically prove it or explain it to most other people. I can only share my testimony which is anecdotal. I wonât argue if someone says that is stupid. I canât see the evidence that proves the Christian God does not exist though. Just like the intelligence within the game wonât be able to prove the software engineer does not exist â¤ď¸ |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by Maynmann: 9:11am On Jun 30, 2023 |
wegevv:Itâs not only christians that worship a god. A Christian is like an apple laptop claiming his software engineer is yahweh A Muslim is a dell laptop claiming his software engineer is allah. A zeus worshipper is a Hp laptop claiming zeus and Olympian gods is the Creator. Imagine a Apple laptop claiming Tim cook is omnipotent. So as other thousands of religions, one of the central theme among religions is faith and belief, knowledge is not required. They also have their own testimonies lol How did the intelligence within the game prove that the software engineer exists? â¤ď¸ 1 Like |

wegevv: That's not what I said at all. Reread what I wrote and try to understand it. |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 9:27am On Jun 30, 2023 |
Maynmann: We canât scientifically prove it to everyone. Thatâs what I keep saying. Iâm not even arguing with you, Iâm agreeing with what youâre saying lol But humour me for a second and imagine the software engineer decided to reveal himself to one player in the game. Maybe by someway that broke the physics of the game for an instance. How would that in game character go and prove the existence of the software engineer. They canât unless the software engineer decided to reveal himself to another in game character. Christians believe it is God that gives salvation. When he shows Himself to you it will be hard not to believe. But no human is going to prove once and for all that he believes with science and empirical data. I personally donât care that other religions have their own believes and testimonies. Iâm not trying to hold on to God through that kind logic. Iâll happily admit that Iâm stupid for Christ â¤ď¸ |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 9:32am On Jun 30, 2023 |
LordReed: Lol maybe itâs the âmost of the attributes given to this god do not conform to the reality of this worldâ that confused me. But you then say the opposite in the next sentence which I missed. Youâre going to have to explain which attributes the Christian God is said to have that canât possibly be consistent with a God that created the universe please |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by Maynmann: 9:33am On Jun 30, 2023 |
wegevv:We can disprove the mythology of yahweh the same we can for zeus. Iâm also agreeing with you, we canât disprove any god âscientificallyâ, your yahweh is existing alongside other gods each powerful the same way. The characters in a game does not have free will, so if the character thinks he is âbreaking the physicsâ of the game, itâs all part of the program set up by the software engineer. Also how will proving the existence of the software engineer affect the characters in the game? What is the impact of their âbeliefâ to the software engineer or to the characters? The same way christians âbelieveâ, other religionist also âbelieveâ, no different. How did the intelligence within the game prove that the software engineer exists? â¤ď¸ 1 Like |
Re: Tell Us A Reason You Don't Believe In God by wegevv: 9:38am On Jun 30, 2023 |
Maynmann: Itâs an example. Anyway we mostly agree. You keep asking me a question at the end that Iâve answered. The intelligence within the game canât prove anything. In the example I gave above it can only know but it canât prove. Try to imagine itâs a sophisticated AI game if that helps. Christians canât scientifically prove God exists even if He reveals Himself to them and they know he exists. God ultimately choses who he reveals himself to. It is God that saves. |
