No need to insult her..a little knowledge about AFRICAN TRADITIONAL RELIGION AND INCULTURATION will help her... you can only worship God in truth and in spirit which is your entire being,worldview,history,heritage...all these make up the truth about you ,inside and outside..your culture shapes who you are...and it is who you are that you present to God...the whites that brought the Word of God to us didnt tell us that but now..we are becoming more aware of who you are..WE WANT TO WRITE OUR OWN HISTORY..this is why you see churches bringing culture as part of worship..savvy? |

bloodofthelamb: So why is it that in the new testament , the apostles used the words Jews and gentiles ?. What you seem to forget is that God is the one that creates the ocean, sea, the sky. He is the one that created different races and ethnic groups with different accents living in a diverse habitat. If he believes we shouldn't have any culture then why didn't just make us one race from the beginning rather then going through the stress of creating multiple race ? |

op started by judging the catholic church, but the holy book says “Do not judge, or you too will be judged.(Matthew 7:1) India was colonised by the british but they didn't loose their culture and traditions to their colonial masters. 1 Like |

Lilisticlili: RIGHT OR WRONG, IT IS A DISTRACTION, OUR OWN IDEA AND CREATION FOR FUN AND ENTERTAINMENT. WE BORROWED IT FROM THE WORLD, THEREFORE, WORLDLY AND FRIENDSHIP WITH THE WORLD = ABOMINATION TO GOD. WHEN JESUS SAID, 'OCCUPY TILL I COME ' IS THIS PART OF WHAT HE MEANT? CERTAINLY NOT ESPECIALLY IN THESE LAST DAYS. |

At the moment, I honestly do not care if the so called "cultural day" is good or evil. I'm mad at the desperate attempt by the poster to demonize the Catholic Church in her stupid bid to gain relevance. Dear OP, I know you care not about the question you pretended to ask. You were only subtly seeking to insult and demonize the Catholic Church. I hope you got what you wanted. Give yourself some accolades. But hear me, your regurgitated anti Catholic nonsense, flowing from your hate filled heart is just a reflection of your inferior, bigoted and disgruntled self. The Church will continue to match on and there is nothing you or your father - the accuser of the brethren can do about it. 2 Likes |

ochiazam: In what context did the apostles used the word Jews and Gentiles? Gal 3:28 says "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." For as many that is baptized into Christ has put on Christ. Note: I am not talking about water baptism but the Holy Ghost baptism which Jesus is the baptizer. Christ is the identity of the new creation. |

bloodofthelamb: Bro, your. claim, that the "new creation" has no business with the culture and tradition of this world was said by who. Remember, when Jesus said that we are no more from the world, meant that we are no more meant to living according to the wants of the world such as adultery, lieing, etc. It didn't mean that we should stop doing EVERYTHING done by the world. Even Jesus attended the wedding ceremony at Cana in Galilee which was celebrated with the tradition of the jews. God created us all and created culture and all tribes of the world, does it mean that He didn't know what He was doing? Even language is part of culture, can you tell me what is wrong with that. Wearing clothes that represent your culture to church as a means of promoting and representing your culture, is it also wrong. Please let us all be wary of religious extremism which devil himself use to lure many to hell. 1 Like |

Lilisticlili: Most of them demonizing you here don't even know what it means to be in Christ to begin with. You can't be an ambassador of heaven and still be an ambassador of the world. It is impossible. Here what apostle Peter said: For as much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation Received by TRADITION from your Fathers (1Peter 1:18). Jesus redeemed us from our vain tradition and culture that has brought nothing but condemnation and division. 1 Like 1 Share |

Op, do you really know what is haphazard? If you want to use the word, use it as it concerns pentecostalism as catholic mode of worship is systematic, solemn and pragmatic. Nothing haphazard about catholicism. |

RadicallyBlunt:I don't think that the idea behind celebrating cultural day in the church I attend which is the Catholic Church is about portraying and encouraging the negative aspects of culture. That because one or two negative things are a part of culture doesn't mean that we should condemn the whole thing. |

nwokoyepraise: Listen, the "new creation in Christ" is a citizen of heaven sent as an ambassador to the world. An ambassador of America in Nigeria have no business with the tradition and culture of Nigeria. He is here on behalf of his Nation (America), even so are believers in the world on behalf of heaven. |

@op :The bible is against idol worship and not culture. Culture is our way of life including dress es, food, songs, marriage rites, presentation and eating of kola nuts, etc. These are things we do daily. It is not wrong for Christians to worship and honor God according to their way of life. |
