āHere we go againā and yet you couldnāt get through one paragraph without misrepresenting what Mount Zion actually does. Let me help.
MZ doesnāt demonize Yoruba culture. It celebrates it; the colors, the language, the proverbs, the royalty. Eg. Abejoye became a born-again Christian while still speaking deep Yoruba, bowing before his king, and dropping proverbs thatāll make your grandfather nod. Nobody took his culture. The Gospel just took the throne in his heart.
You framed this as āYoruba spirituality vs foreign religion.ā We never did. We frame it as Light vs Darkness and Darkness has no nationality. Weāve called it out in boardrooms, cities, and yes, in the villages. Location doesnāt exempt it.
āProfiting from portrayalsā MZ has 200+ films. Less than 30% are traditional settings. Your entire argument is built on a minority of the catalog, filtered through a lens of cultural grievance. Thatās not analysis, thatās a feeling dressed up as a fact.
People are asking questions? Good. Watch the films. The full ones. From start to finish.
AGBARA NLA drops OCT 1. š„ The name of Jesus is still above every other name, in 1993 and in 2026.
The last few months has been a tough and excruciating battle with my life.
I am sure I have had to suffer more pains than the guy at the cross who asked Jesus for a place in his kingdom.
For those who don't already know, I have a lump on my throat and it has grown to the point where it's now capable of eating my own blood.
The lump, according to the series of scans I have done is called Lymphoma.
In simpler terms, I have been battling Lymphoma.
I have gone days where I couldnāt talk, days where I couldnāt move my body from the bed for the whole day, nights where I have had my life flash before my eyes just because I chose to pee, days where I have had constant blurry visions where I couldnāt see things or anyone clearly, this explains why I have stayed off Facebook because I canāt see for long.
I am very weak. Itās the first thing youād notice when you see me. I am being assisted to walk as I cannot walk on my own. In two months, I have fallen at different places that have sometimes resulted into injuries. How I am still alive, I do not understand it yet. The weakness is very evidenced in my voice, it has been the weakest it has ever been and my speech has become somehow incoherent. When I talk for over 30 seconds, I begin to gasp for air. I am sure some of those who have called me during this period will understand this better.
I have emaciated a lot. I donāt even look like me anymore.
I have been receiving treatment at the teaching hospital here in Uyo. I am scheduled for a biopsy soon, but I have to wait another week cus the hospital decided to shut down the hospital and send patients home after an issue that occurred at the hospital entrance yesterday.
For those who donāt know, a biopsy is done to check if a lump is cancerous or not. So a mini surgery is required as theyāll have to cut a part of my throat to remove the small lump they need for the biopsy.
The result of what the biopsy would be scares me a bit. First, because I donāt have the energy to go through cancer treatment after this horrible last two/three months. I really hope itās not cancer so I can begin to prepare my mind for a major surgery instead.
My family and friends have been supportive financially, emotionally, morally during this period. But Iāll be needing your help and support as they canāt do it alone. The biopsy and a possible surgery will cost me significant finances. I need your help. I already thought Iāll be dead by now. But I wake up to life every morning, surprisingly. And since the universe still wants me alive, please help me stay alive. Thank you very much.

I hope to return to Facebook again after all these. But I need to be okay first. At least get the blurry vision out of the way so I can see your updates on my screen again.
I am thankful to everyone who has reached out one way or the other to ask about my well-being. I opened my Messenger app for the first time few days ago and I was overwhelmed at the plethora of new messages. I would attend to those messages as soon as I can gather enough strength. Thank you everyone. God bless you.
If God wills, I will be back.
Please help Hufon Hime survive

For all the perceived imperfections of Celebration Church, pray for us.
We are trying our best
Iād like to think that it will matter more to every true Jesus lover that we are getting the most important things right;
- Teachings are strictly Christ centered
- Members love each other
- People are truly knowing Jesus better and excited about the gospel.
Part of our mission statement as a church is to disciple people excited about God, His message, and His church. Iām glad weāre achieving that.
I could also argue that it is a huge testimony that you can tell our members just by their tweets. For even when Peter tried to keep his anonymity, it was said:
"Surely you also are one of them, for your speech betrays you." Matt 26:73. (See also Acts 4:13, 11:26)
The problem is that a brand of Church where you keep your anonymity and ideologies has been popularized. That brand of Church where the only thing that ties you to the Church is that you actually attend. So when people see Church done in a way Iād argue to be the Bible way, they have an issue with it.
The word Church (grk- ecclesia) literally means ācalled outā gathering.
Faith in Jesus calls you out and into a community of saints.
It is impossible to do Church the Bible way without, in some sense, losing your āindividualityā.
This doesnāt mean you can no longer think for yourself. It simply means that you begin to think biblically and have a Christian world view.
And guess what? A group of people who share the same ideology, mission and fellowship may seem cult-like to you.
This is exactly why unbelievers coined the name Christian to describe a behavioral pattern and excitement of a group of people identified with Christ. The name Christian was originally derogatory.
Issues of people crossing the line in admiration isnāt new either.
āAs Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him.
But Peter lifted him up, saying, "Stand up; I myself am also a man." Acts 10:25-26.
(see also Acts 14:11-15).
I could argue that a Church that doesnāt have to deal with this might be doing things the wrong way.
Just like Peter and the early saints, God will help us to continue to help people never to cross the line.
But trying to constantly shame people for being excited about their Church and Pastor is unkind.
Sometimes the motives also seem suspect. Why Celebration Church? Which Church more than ten thousand members strong doesnāt share these attributes?
Being excited about your Church is not idolatry
Being excited about your Pastor is not idolatry.
(Paul literally said: āBe imitators of me as I am of Christā 1 Cor. 11:1)
Placing anything or anyone above God is idolatry.
Being grateful for someone who helped you get closer to God isnāt.
If all of these still seem too much for you, please find a Church that works better for you.
Itās one thing to not understand or to even dislike our excitement. But to constantly try to pick on people for it seems suspect to me.
Ultimately, God has our score card. He sees all and will judge all.
