The Mormon Church is an interesting one but in it there are more questions than answers.They have a temple which only approved church members can enter.If you do not get the temple permit you cannot enter there.You as an individual cannot go to their temple to commune with God.They have one temple in Aba.The temple is not everywhere.They also engage in the Baptism for the dead. Even if you die as a bishop in another church today,your baptism must be done in the temple by anyone else living on your behalf.On every Church building, instead of the cross of Jesus,they mount a structure which looks like a coffin.They can never explain its meaning to anyone.On top of this coffin is an image of a man with a sword.You have to study the structure closely to observe this.One is at Opebi..There is no cross on their structures and they have additional scriptures like Perl of graet Price AND bOOK oF Mormon. Any one that has a better understanding of these practices of the church should let me know because I still admire the church. |

Statsocial:You discovery exercise may be futile, reason being that in Nigeria, churches open everyday and there is no database for the existing ones let alone the entrants. Secondly, most new churches are not registered, and as such, are legally not recognised as a body. Some churches have less than 10 members while some have no definite place of worship. Any estimated figure will definitely be flawed. |

thesuave10:Church buildings, sir. Not Denominations. Like in my street, before you get to the main road, you'll pass thru 7 RCCG, 3 LFC, 1 AG, 1 Deeper Life, 2 MFM. Churches are so many dat d street was nicknamed ''Business Lane'' |

we are too religious and that has led to lack of thinking that is supposed to get us out of poverty and underdevelopment. We should all strive for spiritual growth in God and not being religious fanatics. |

QueenOfNepal: A lot of things that worked decades ago cannot work again. The population explosion(Nigeria and worldwide) is one thing to be considered. Population of nigeria was just 16 million in 1911. In 2017 it's about 170 million and still counting. I repeat, it will be difficult to feel any missionary impact in terms of provision of public services. Despite the budget of nigeria running into trillions, nobody is feeling the impact. Nobody has ever felt the impact. Some of these churches do provide services the govt hasn't been able to cater for. It may be expensive, but it's still affordable for some. They still manage to meet some people's needs. The children of the very rich and the lawmakers are schooling abroad, the children of some poor are schooling in covenant university for example. I really dont believe therea any middle class in nigeria. The gap is too much. Nigerian universities are still one of the cheapest worldwide. Meaning the services provided by the faith based schools shouldn't be rubbished because it's not free. It's almost impossible to be free. Some of the students are on church scholarships btw to attend same schools. Millions of students write jamb to enter uni btw. How many of those millions do you think those schools can cater for since everyone will want to be a part of it? Talking of volunteer services, are you ready to be a volunteer? How many volunteers services have you ever being a part of Personally? Should they employ people not qualified to come and teach in the universities since they are volunteers? Or employ just anybody to come and provide the services of a Dr or nurse in hospitals? Don't the volunteers have families to feed also? Most people that work in the church do so Sunday's, Saturday's, Friday night's or generally after work hours. Who will they be ministering to in the hospitals Or teaching at such hours? 3 Likes |
