How can you be willing to follow Jesus if you live in a country that won’t allow the presence of…?

Of other religions or of any religions? In some places their customs usually dictate what their beliefs will be, and customs are a peoples identity. How does a God distribute his gift of life among the babies born right this very second, into all those worldly households of various beliefs, knowing that only one of those beliefs will do them any good? In all fairness, how can that be fair?

Nobody can dictate what you believe.

Matthew 6:5-6
“And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

    And there were exceedingly many prophets among us. And the people were a stiffnecked people, hard to understand.
    23 And there was nothing save it was exceeding harshness, preaching and prophesying of wars, and contentions, and destructions, and continually reminding them of death, and the duration of eternity, and the judgments and the power of God, and all these things—stirring them up continually to keep them in the fear of the Lord. I say there was nothing short of these things, and exceedingly great plainness of speech, would keep them from going down speedily to destruction. And after this manner do I write concerning them.

    Wouldn’t it be more productive it you asked "how can I help feed the hungry? "
    Why don’t the religious see how TRULY blind they are?

    Last I checked, the city in which I live has houses of worship for just about every religion you can name.

    I’m not sure what else you’re babbling on about.

    Friend,

    What prevents you to mentally pray?

    Can you not read the Scriptures in the home ?

    It is more beneficial if you pray mentally.

    God bless you.

    God gives His Grace to all babies because He has loving breathed life into each one. That’s as fair as it can get.

  8. The Visitor Says:

    You do the same as the apostles and all of the early Christians did, you defy them. Even as far back before Paul became a Christian, and was the most dedicated and relentless pursuer and persecuted of the Christians.

    And even til the times of king James, Christianity was still outlawed and Christians were persecuted, prosecuted and executed. But that did not eradicate Christianity, the Christians kept their faith and remained steadfast on the word of God, until king James finally sanctioned Christianity, though purely for political reason.

    Also when the anti Christ rules, those who convert to Christianity in those days will also be persecuted, hunted, prosecuted and executed all their days.

    Dear Double six Double six,
    If we learn to fix
    Our logical questions on Life & Living
    In our own brain
    And not in the brains of self-appointed agents of God and Religions
    We will gain
    The correct answers we seek.

    "Seek, you will find." said Jesus.
    He also said : "Love thy neighbor as thyself." + "Do unto others what you wish others do unto you."

    Now - even atheists, agnostics and followers of other religions too will agree with the above words of Jesus.

    We need not be members of any of the numerous churches functioning in the name of Jesus in order to follow the teachings of Jesus.

    In a country that bans religion or Christianity, you can follow Jesus without branding yourself as a follower of Jesus. Of course you must not try to love your neighbor to the extent of making him also a Christian.

    Truthy Mc Truth + Loony Dufus + Scrooge have offered you good food for thought.

    Who told you that only one religion does good to people ?
    God accepts even Atheism. That’s why he gives babies to atheists - and more, most of the children of the atheists are intelligent, talented, well-behaved, and compassionate. So,God is sure to bless them further !

    If you choose to know the truth -

    Seek the truth
    and find out
    that all the religions have done,
    and continue to do
    a lot of harm to humans.

    Remember -
    Jesus
    was crucified in the name of God,
    and Joan of Arc
    was burnt alive in the names of God and Christianity !
