If Jesus Christ ever tells me to k!ll my neighbor for my beliefs, I will so stop following Him cos it will never make sense to me.
But. His law is love and His gospel is peace. Is it not clear that the world needs Jesus?
No, you people are always fighting the wrong battle. The government is our focus not Christianity. nobody is being forced to give offerings or forced to convert into Christianity. No fight against the church will ever prevail. We must focus on the government not the church.
If Nigeria was a working country, there would be no Holy Ghost Convention, no Shiloh, no Prayer City.
Pastors are profiting off your pain and ignorance.
@OurFavOnlineDoc@007Cardinal If the Authorities won’t pick up all the Islamic clerics in Oyo state that brought this terror to the land, the people should do the needful. From protest to going after them one by one
Pastor Adeboye emptied the infrastructures of their fellowships in the North East campuses into the IDPs in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.
When we got to Borno in 2017, we met empty spaces. I wrote a letter to him from Maiduguri, I told him all we needed, running into millions of naira. He sent the money to us. Everything I wrote in the letter was sent. I would write to him every quarter giving him update about all of us in the fellowship and request additional money. He will still send it.😅
I coordinated one of his largest intervention program in Maiduguri. A training and certification course for students in Architecture, Urban planning etc… thousands of students from Ramat Polytechnic, University of Maiduguri etc… it was one of his programs to uplift a society battered by insurgencies and the economy of the state crashed. A program meant to give a future to them by upgrading their skillset.
His greatest strength of not showing off is the reason many people, even his church members do not know 2% of his works.
Moses was a stammerer and unqualified but God used him like that to liberate the Israelites. We have tried people with Political acumen but where has that brought us?
Sir, It’s time to not only think outside the box but jump out of the entire box.
He usually doesn’t get what he really wants out of political parties .
He usually isn’t able to control political structures , usually needs it to be offered to him .
When he enters a coalition , he has the weakest “control” within it even though the masses are behind him .
Even in NDC they are deciding things but his own folks with his ideology are schemed out.
He is a good man but you see Nigerian politics ? He is not good at it .
Last week, Apostle Tolu Agboola talked about how, during the bandit attack, a prominent Muslim man in Ogbomosho ran to him and said:
"We know you have the means to flee this city, but you chose to stay, and that is why we are still here too."
He cried at IEC when he said this.
He said the world is looking to us for hope and answers, and prayed that it would not be said that we have a name and a boast we cannot substantiate.
This happened while everyone was running helter-skelter, trying to retrieve their children from schools.
A prominent Muslim man ran to a pastor in a time of crisis.
The people criticizing the Church are not always criticizing it in the way we think.
Sometimes, they have an inclination that is being misexpressed.
You say the God we serve is the only true God. He is the One who made all people in His image.
He is the One who wrote His moral law on the hearts of men.
So it is fitting that in times of darkness, crisis, trials, and tribulations, people seek their Maker.
And since not everyone has a relationship with Him, many turn to His ecclesia, His temple on earth.
This was what I was trying to say yesterday.
The Church means something.
This is the people among whom God dwells on the earth.
Do you know what that means?
We are the body of Christ.
You wonder why people “drag” the Church more than others? Perhaps it is because people instinctively expect something from the Church.
Jesus did say we are the light of the world. So in times of crisis, why are we surprised when people turn to the Church?
WE SHOULD HAVE ANSWERS.
We should, guys.
We are the ones who have access to God. God is King over all nations, and we can go boldly to His throne.
Why then is our land desolate while the enemy ravages the innocent?
Why are our prophets quiet, and why do we not see our signs?
Why?
Something deep within the hearts of people is crying out to God, albeit imperfectly.
Just like Mary blamed Jesus for not coming earlier to save her brother and said if He had come sooner, he would not have died.
It is similar to some of the agitations we are seeing now.
Mary’s motive was sincere, but her expression was imperfect.
In the same way, many Nigerians are expressing frustration, grief, and longing.
But Mary was right about one thing: only Jesus is life.
He alone could save her brother.
And He did.
Similarly, I believe the Church has answers in times of darkness, and people are looking to us. Sometimes, it seems we have not responded in proportion to the moment.
I am glad that some pastors have spoken up.
But the Church has more power than merely speaking up.
We are not merely activists.
We are spiritual people entrusted with carrying the witness of Christ into the world.
But have we?
Finally, during the carnage of Abacha’s era, Christians prayed fervently.
There is even a popular story that Abacha reportedly told Buhari, “As long as those Christians are praying their prayers, you can never be president.”
Whether every retelling is exact or not, the point remains:
People believed prayer mattered.
You think the Church is crowds on a Sunday with lights and music?
No.
The Church is more than gatherings and aesthetics.
There is something beyond human power that God does through His people.
That is what I have been talking about.
I pray God helps the Church.
Same Ifa and isese that most of these Alfas patronize. You will see them killing lizards up and down in the area, what in the name of their worship are lizards use for? Hypocrites!!
