Toks2008:Catholic is the most widely spread in Nigeria as for the topic ,I think we need to go to the books to know the winner to this topic but I think it's btw RCCG and Cele even though Cele doesn't have a nation wide spread Some Cele by the river side is just with palm fronts as roofs and thick wood as pillar but it's still a branch or parish so I think the argument is btw the RCCG and Cele. |

RCCG |

Afamjudeoffor:Check the topic it's the highest number of branches not the highest number of standard branches. RCCG and Cele have it for me more than Catholic. |

bakynes: Lol! funny enough I have seen some weird looking rccg branches made of planks and I wonder why....as for Cele branches with palm fronts as roofs those one plenty expecially by the river side... Celestial church and water side be like women and money |

THE QUESTION IS VERY IRRELEVANT TO THE BODY OF CHRIST AND THE PROPAGATION OF THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST. WE SHOULD BE CONCERN WITH THE WINNING OF SOULS AND ATTENDING TO THE NEEDY IN OUR MIDST. 2 Likes |

sirequity: I am Catholic (if that helps). But I don't think catholic has the most "PARISHES". Catholic have the highest numbers of members tho no doubt. |
Re: Which Church Has The Highest Number Of Parishes In Nigeria? by jtjohn(m): 2:45pm On Mar 26, 2017 |
RCCG......every 5mins work on the street u will definitely see RCCG. |

melejo: I have been wondering why Seun did that. @ Seun that's not fair. In my opinion I think you are biased in that decision. Why would people have to swear an affidavit before commenting on Islam section, denouncing his/her faith. Why don't people swear a similar Oath before commenting on Christian section 2 Likes |

Pls, without prejudice: Let's read Matthew 7:13-14; The narrow way is less crouded and few find the ease to follow through. The broad way however is accommodating for all manner of people, "many there be that follows..." PLS, WHEN DISCUSSING ISSUES OF MAJORITY IN CHRISTIANITY; ALWAY REMEMBER THE TEACHING ON NARROW WAY AND BROAD WAY. GOD BLESS YOU. WE WILL MAKE HEAVEN IN JESUS NAME, AMEN 1 Like |

Itz soo pathetic reading some of these comment the churches has become business centres, itz now something to boast about who has the most branches who has the biggest church itz a pity we has lost purpose and have become church members so what makes us different from the rest God isn't looking for buildings |

RCCG LEADS THE PACK AND ITS HEADQUARTER NOT EVEN IN NIGERIA BUT IN DALLAS, TEXAS ALL THE WAY IN USA. |

melejo:that's the main aim, so people can make disparaging comments against the church and christian,and turn different denominations against themselves. Some Catholic dude called Pentecostal business centre, and I shake my head. meanwhile the Islam section is secured with a caveat before you access there. |

Werehkpe: Bro, the winners headquarters in Warri is just a state headquarters or even less since Asaba is the state capital.....hope you know winners headquarters in Ota is actually in Guinness book of world records as the single largest auditorium in the world. |

U can't compare any church to St. Peter's basilica. In terms of size, artifacts etc. Add the monetary values of all Winners chapels even canaan land and all redeem in Nigeria, can't equate d monetary value alone of paintings of sistine chapel which experts value at least $500B. Besides St Peter's there are other Catholic churches that no church in Nigeria can get even close. Examples Notre Dame in France, cologne cathedral in Germany, St Patrick cathedral in new York...quote author=Werehkpe post=54962606] If you are talking about headquarters, The right comparison will be comparing Winners Chapel HQ in Warri to St Peter's Basilica in Rome. The Basilica took 100 years i.e a century. Thats just to tell you how enormous and massive it is. So dont even go down this route. FACTS ON ST PETERS BASILICA Groundbreaking 18 April 1506 Completed 18 November 1626 Length 730 feet (220 m) Width 500 feet (150 m) Height 448.1 feet (136.6 m)[1] Nave height 151.5 feet (46.2 m) Dome diameter (outer) 137.7 feet (42.0 m) Dome diameter (inner) By the way it has loads of underground chambers and churches. Also its RUMOURED thats where the "remains of Peter" was found in the Cistine Chapel. It also has the most priceless and stunning artworks ever made including sculptures and paintings from Michaelangelo. FORGET BROTHER. ITS CATHOLIC ALL D WAY o[/quote] |

Nigeriadondie: I don't actually know if you are replying me or some other person but winners has the largest church auditorium in the nation of Kenya,as her headquarters in that country and is in 192 counties of the world and is less than 50 years old as a ministry. She runs 2 modern universities and thousand of secondary and primary schools around the world.....she has in her kitty liecense for 5 universities...four outside Nigeria and one .....university of marine engineering in calabar. Alll in less than 45 years of her existence..... |

sirequity:My brother, I no agree with you. RCCG na from street to street. Some are in Cathedral, some are in warehouse while others are in shops I tire for Pentecostals jare! |
Re: Which Church Has The Highest Number Of Parishes In Nigeria? by sirequity(m): 4:20pm On Mar 26, 2017 |
Lilimax: That's why I said forget business centers. You don't see church in warehouse, shops etc, I don't mean gathering, when I say Church, even the Federal Government don't joke with it. Those you just mentioned are business centers. |

When it comes to no of church buildings it Rccg even if most of their parishes put together can't equal monetary value of one big Catholic parish. But as Catholic churches have numerous masses on Sundays, it's population can best be imagined. No Christian denomination comes a distant close to the Catholic Church in terms of adherent in Nigeria and world at large. The Catholic Church is the largest single faith group in the world with a population of 1.4 billions and with most of centuries old and breath-taking cathedrals and parishes. It on unanimously believed by artifacts experts that the value of michaelangelo's paintings in the ceiling of the sistine chapel in St. Peter's basilica is unquantifiable, while others put it at least $500B. Aside the Catholic Church is the single richest institutions ever know to man and operates also the largest charity in the world, from leprosarium to orphanages n home for the elderly...it owned and manages the world largest groups of hospitals and educational institutions. It is an incomparable institution that cannot be fathom. |

What is the strength of winners in these 192 countries? Most of this countries may host not more than 10-15 Winners churches but not so with the Catholic Church whose presence is ever felt in every country in the world. In terms of hospitals n educational institutions, the Catholic Church is unequaled...no other church's university can rival that of the Catholic Church either quality of lectures or numbers...
