Trying to be like Jesus…

@DeeWaynee94 😂😂😂😂I laughed out loud. He who sits in the Heavens did too!

🚨 I have summoned the courage to leave “Christianity” today.

I know how that sounds.

And perhaps some of you are already wondering what happened to me.

October 1st this year marked four years since I made the greatest decision of my life: to become a follower of Christ. For four years, I have carried the title “Christian” and proudly identified myself by it.

But something has changed.

In recent times, that title has begun to mean far less to me.

Not because I have grown tired of Christ. Not because I have stopped believing. Not because I am walking away from the faith.

Rather, because I have come to realise that we have far too many Christians in the world and far too few disciples.

We have become comfortable carrying a name that, according to Scripture, demands a life.

Many profess Christ with their lips, yet their lives show little evidence of following Him. Many desire the benefits of salvation but resist the surrender, obedience, holiness and self-denial that come with following Jesus.

And I no longer want a title that can be worn without a life that reflects the One it claims to represent.

So yes, today I am denouncing “Christianity” for something far more demanding and far more biblical:

Disciple.

Not because I believe I am better than other Christians. Not because I want to distinguish myself from the crowd. And certainly not because I am ashamed of Christ.

Quite the opposite.

I choose “disciple” because it reminds me that following Jesus is not merely an identity I claim. It is a life I must live.

A disciple follows. A disciple obeys. A disciple denies himself, takes up his cross, bears fruit, pursues holiness, and continually becomes more like his Master.

So yes, I am leaving “Christianity.”

But I am not leaving Christ.

I am leaving behind a version of Christianity that is content with the name while embracing the costly call to actually follow Jesus.

Call me a disciple. 📌

God can handle how you feel.
Bring your anger.
Bring your fear.
Bring your confusion.
Bring your sin!
He is not insulted or intimidated by those that run to Him!

Christ will HEAL

@FivioForeign I loovvvee the sincerity of saying “if it ain’t about money” first, then catching hisself>>>>❤️

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@FivioForeign Praise God!

@SrDiegoLima Seeing you questioning why the 8th molar exist, even though it is actually useless, just reminds me of people that question why God does what he does. Some things we are not meant to understand/control.

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@PastorHamilton8 Everybody just Dey cook wetin Dey their mind. Why unbelievers no go look down on us?

Look at you now.

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@archie_lochie Don’t ragebait me.😭🤲🏽

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@Originalkachii And I could have used ANYTHING to make that analogy, “free thinker”.

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

Awww… Intellectual. Have you created something at all as human, Someone invented the knife, that is used to kill animals, cut Onions, kill HUMANS, cut meat. So many different possibilities. Do you blame the capabilities of this knife to the inventor. Do you put characteristics…

[SCOREpion 🦂⚽🔥 @Hakeem_Onitolo]

Thank you for this.

I normally say God is the Alternate Devil. God is omnipotent and omniscient, so he knows what the devil will do before the devil does it. He makes the “devil” do these things because it is all part of “God’s plan.

”god” and the “devil” are the same entity.
If they are not the same entity, it means the devil is so powerful that God has no power over him. Cancer, disasters, suffering, etc. cannot be the plans of an “all-loving” god.

I don’t believe in monotheism because an omnipotent god who loves us all would not allow us to go astray so he can punish us in hell for not following one path out of many when he could just make that one path the only path.

Based on personal experience, I acknowledge primordial forces, divinities, and a supreme being. These are not limited to one religion or book. Every “holy” book was written by man, and men lie.

Atheism is more logical to me than monotheism. Atheism argues against any god; monotheism argues that only one of all gods is true. Monotheists argue that a god who creates a man into a Buddhist family, knowing he would be Buddhist, would punish him eternally in hell for not practicing another religion entirely. What a loving god.

The concept of god as “good” is flawed and cannot be defended with “the ways of God are beyond human comprehension,” “don’t question god,” etc because god allows too much evil for no reason.

Imagine “allowing” the devil to test a man by killing his child. Where is the sense in that?

I could go on, but I’ll stop here.

The devil is the alternate side of God.

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@SwagManRaaa Everything he wrote makes sense to me.

If he didn’t make sense to you, not my fault.😂🤲🏽

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

Gbam!

This is obviously a hilarious attempt by a limited mind to contain transcendence.

Parodies like this almost always make the same basic mistake. They put God and the Devil side by side as though they are cosmic rivals playing in the same league. It is like throwing Messi and Ronaldo into a comedy sketch to argue with each other. It is comical because it completely misses who God actually is.

We are not talking about two powerful beings sharing a universe. We are talking about the God who spoke reality itself into existence out of absolute nothingness.

There was no raw material waiting for Him. He conceived creation and brought both its matter and its order into existence. He commands the visible world and the invisible realm. The Devil is a creature living inside the house God built. Putting them on the same pedestal makes zero sense.

Then the tired line: “If humans kill, it’s murder, but when God does it, we aren’t allowed to question Him.”

Think about that for ten seconds.

Even within our limited world, the person who creates something has a kind of authority over what he has created. If you build an app or launch a company, you can shut it down. But human life is not software. And the analogy becomes infinitely more profound when applied to God, because which of us can give life? More importantly, which of us has any authority over what happens beyond death?

When a human kills, he is taking a life he did not create and exercising an authority over another person that he does not possess. He cannot create that life, restore it by his own power, or determine its ultimate destiny.

God can.

The Bible’s claim is not that death somehow ceases to matter. It is that death does not place a person outside God’s sovereignty. The God who gave the person life remains sovereign over that person beyond the grave. Which man can summon the soul of another man? God is dealing with what belongs to Him in the first place.

And there is another problem with the caricature.

Creators do not shut down what they love out of spite. God was entirely sufficient in Himself before creation. He did not create because He was lonely, incomplete, or in need of something from us. The Christian claim is that creation is an act of divine generosity and love.

That is what makes this nonsense fall apart.

The Christian story does not present a petty monster killing people for fun. It presents a God who loved His creation so deeply that He entered human history, took on flesh, and allowed Himself to be slaughtered on a Roman cross to redeem the very people who had turned against Him.

And when God judges, Christianity does not portray Him as a bored bully exercising arbitrary power. It portrays Him as the righteous Judge who has the unique authority to give life, sustain life, judge life, end physical life, and ultimately raise the dead.

It is completely fine if you do not believe God exists.

But if you want to criticize the Christian view of God, at least have the intellectual honesty to wrestle with what Christians actually believe, rather than congratulating yourself for beating up a caricature you invented in your own head.

@Originalkachii Who defined the sole purpose of a knife is to cut??…

I can use a knife to open a stuck door?
I can use a knife to unscrew a screw?
I can use a knife as a wedge?

Talking about thought process.

@ZionBubble @twyse_116 True, true.

[RYAN GARCIA @RyanGarcia]

Satan the accuser

In heaven his job was to bring things to the light. That’s why he still had to ask God permission to do something Job

To this day he goes shaming and accusing reminding people of their past even lying to make you feel you can’t move forward in life

Don’t be discouraged put your faith in Jesus and don’t stop don’t let nothing define you, anyone who tried to shame you lie on you and make you feel down is working from the devil

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@chukaobi Contradicting himself for not no reason is so real.😂😭

Jesus said, “whoever believeth in Him will not see death”.

From what I’ve followed IN THE BIBLE, Death is a state which all humans without Jesus/God must face. Enoch never experienced that state.

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@ZionBubble @twyse_116 There is but a few point I can use to refute the “skitmaker’s” POV. But that’s the verse of the Bible that came to head when I was trying to refute his very foolish and base claims about God. But the Holy Spirit has constrained me.

[Adesina James @thatguysixth]

@Hectorolym23350 @twyse_116 The Bible has proven its point in my life. What has proven its point about your life? Pride of Life and the lust of the eyes???
