If and when the revulotion starts, how are you going to answer? with hands on your head or finger on your trigger?
when they come knocking on your front porch, how will you end? hidding behind your mothers pot? or will your voice be that of Ezekiel

Immortal!:
Left 2 me, religious organizations shud pay taxes 2 goverment. Only God can tell how much d nation would get 4rm them on weekly bases. D freedom is just 2 much. A storey building close 2 my house has about four churches using it. Is it not d same Christ that is being preached? It is now more profitable 2 quit an oil job just 2 open a church. May God almighty help us.
u r very funny

manmustwac: Like the poster said you will never see a nigerian pastor in the mould of Reverend Martin Luther King who fought against racism and descrimination for the rights of the oppressed african americans. Where were all our church leaders when they were needed during the oil subsidy demonstrations? Apart from being absent all they did was to tell the masses to fast & pray which is = NOTHING!

In your mind, 'fasting and praying' is nothing!
It shows your level of knowledge though.

solidbroda: When Karl Marx talked about Alienation, he talked about religion. he said Man made religion at the benefit of the few to the detriment of many, especially the poor. as a poor person, religion will make you to have the feeling that some bigger person (God) cares. but most people never knew that they have been brainwashed.
the first thing that should strike any sane human being is that, why are their so many religion, christian, islam, buddah etc, that alone should point out that religion is a sham, a scam and fraud.
Baseless theory. Numerous religious does nt signify its fake.

You either the daughter of one of those fraidsters or a hipocrit.when Jesus physically with anger chased out the men of god trading in the temple and enriching thier pocket was He just a church goer?open your eye what is wrong is wrong.after peter gave his speech the bible said the same day 3000 people were added to them and people sold thier land posessions and braught the proceed at the feet of peter Read the bible the aposles shared every according to every members need.that was fhier oppurtunity to enrich themselves NO money making was not in thier agender.the gospel and need of thier xtians was thier goal.pls repent.

God bless you Bro. Talk, and MB, is cheap these days. Anyone can now criticize because of free technology.
@op: Bro, Democracy is not, and has never been God's ideal. If ur Christianity hasn't moved beyond church-going, mere followership to a deep personal relationship dat no one can take from you, then you had better get to work on it cos dats d only sure thing dat can keep u in these times of multiple doctrines. Guard ur heart!

has anyone wondered why pastors come to us to ask for building offering rather than doing what they always admonish us to do - pray?

Prince Justice: Years ago People complained that these "men of God" are very poor: how can they claim to be "men of God" and can't boast of a good shoe or cloth.
TODAY, God has blessed these "men of God" financially and otherwise; and People are still complaining!
Nigerians and their mouth! God have mercy!
Na wa 4 u ooooh..pls can u gv us a proof where people complained dat men of God are poor..its really funny

Confirmbabe: @ fellow Christians somtyms i wonder if som of us respect our religion, hv u eva seen a muslim condemin d acts of a mallam, sheikh or imam dat ws involvd in a shady deal on social netwrks? Jst lik we hv fake pastors, we also hv fake muslim clerics bt dey dnt discuss diers. May God help us.
Muslim clerics are not materialistic like your pastors. Better keep them out of this. .! Most Imams do not earn a kobo for running the affairs of a mosque.

Very good observation/enlightment from the writer of this article. Infact, most of them brainwash their followers so that they will neither doubt nor question whatever their pastors tell them. May God save us from being victims of such money mongers.

Bishop Akinola is not the only "true" man of God still standing in Nigeria. When Elijah and everyone around him thought he was the only one still standing for righteousness in the land of Israel, God told him He still had 7,000 other prophets who had not bowed to Baal.
Can the writer of this article or anyone pls educate me on the aspect where he said Jesus condemned/criticized evil authorities in His days?. I know He rebuked evil spirits and evil practices, but I don't know of where he attacked a political leader in his days. I know John the Baptist did that and he was beheaded, but I can't think of anywhere our Lord rebuked a political leader. I know true men of God speak as they are moved by the Holy Ghost, and not by emotion/sentiment. When they speak, heaven confirms their words!

Point of correction! Protestants include the anglicans, the baptists and the methodists, and I don't think they belong to the general class u put them. These 3 denominations stand in between the two extremes of the christian faith. I would recommend either of these to anyone who wants to practise the biblical christianity

The spell is God.

The real thing is that - there is no God, right?

The catholic church is an established denomination. We all knw d truth. Things of d past during d time of apostles like missionaries are still practiced in the catholic today. Peter left the SEE OF ROME as the head of disciples and thats what I stood on for my faith. Everyone wants to condemn d catholic church why? Jehovah witness, Anglicans, pentecostals, satanists(obama and group) all against one church.. Have u asked urself why?

The catholic church is the root of all the evils we are fighting against in institutionalized Christianity.
