UKRANIANS & NIGERIAN CHRISTIANS THIS IS AN URGENT CALL TO ALL OF YOU FOR A SPECIAL TIME OF PRAYER AND INTERCESSION FOR OUR SENIOR PASTOR SUNDAY ADELAJA.


He was invited yesterday, on Tuesday, 21st of August to the police station where he was given another charge.
The case against Pastor Sunday was requalified from fraud to organizing a criminal and dangerous bandit group that specializes in committing heavy crimes. In this new case Pastor Sunday is being charged as the head and organizer of this dangerous criminal bandit group.


Today all the five people accused along with Pastor Sunday were arrested by the police and Pastor Sunday has been invited to the same police station for interrogation as the head of the group for next Tuesday, August 28th.

So we need to pray:
1) That God will not allow them to imprison our Pastor next week Tuesday;
2) That God will reveal the truth on this matter and destroy all the plans of the enemy against Pastor Sunday and the Embassy of God church;
3) We are also inviting you to join the church’s forty days fast that started today for this situation;
4) And we ask that you write to your representatives in your government to appeal to the Ukrainian government against the injustice that has been leveled against Pastor Sunday and the Embassy of God church.


For your information, this kind of things always happen in the Ukraine before any general election as the government wants to show themselves as righteous fighters against all societal vices. The general parliamentary election in Ukraine is coming up on 28th October, so please, pray for God’s will to be done in the country of Ukraine.


We know that this is a case of persecution and discrimination on religious ground against the largest evangelical church in the country. Pastor Sunday does not have anything to do with all the charges brought against him but many people are afraid of the huge influence of the Embassy of God church in this country.


We would like to seize this opportunity to thank you for your continuous support and prayers.


May the Lord bless and reward you accordingly!

The Administration,
The Embassy of the Blessed Kingdom of God for All Nations Church
Kyiv, Ukraine

This i have experienced,not me personally sha,a friend.he Took a picture with his nepalese classmate and put it on facebook.Next thing na racist comments from the girl's family and friends....we sef yab back.they said he should bring down the pic but my friend no gree.Even i begged him privately to bring it down and stop behaving like we sef no get fine girls...but he no gree,saying he won't succumb to them.

the funny(ok not funny sha)one of them said the picture is causing them pain and embarrassment. ...(and i was like,ordinary pic o,if he come dey chyke am nko ..)

[b]I have found out that the worst form of racism isn't even from whites,its the ones from people who think they are white( india and its environs
)for goodness sakes am lighter than some of them so what's the basis of the racism again :-/


[/b]This world sef

oga i tend to disagree with you on this issue..its not really racism...its just that certain people prefer to be married to their own kind....

common in Nigeria..let an ibo man bring a yoruba girl to his parents and then see the reaction.....likewise would a hausa man bring an ibo babe to his mother and see the way people would react...its everywhere my brother.....

Most people dont understand what racism is...
Racism is Predjudice + power!!!....everybody has predjudice against the next race..even you self..go an bring oyibo woman to Nigeria and say you want to marry her and see how your parents would act...

Its just life..
the only problem i have is with the Real racism!! ..where folks visit violence on specific people based on their skin color

CALLING ALL THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD TO ARISE AGAINST THE XENOPHOBIA, RELIGIOUS & MALICIOUS HATRED OF THE UKRANIAN POLITICAL LEADERS AND GOVERNMENT AGAINST THE

LEADER OF THE PENTECOSTAL MOVEMENT IN UKRAINE.

EVEN THE LAWYER OF PASTOR SUNDAY ADELAJA IS ASKING FOR HELP AS HE IS POWERLESS TO DEFEND HIS CLIENT AGAINST THE DEMONICALLY ENGINEERED BATTLE-WHEELS OF THE PROSECUTION.

READ WHAT HE SAYS.......

Pastor Sunday Adelaja is being charged of forming, managing and participation in a criminal organization. This charge includes the use of forged documents. But the actual fact is that this is a case of xenophobia and discrimination on religious ground against the largest protestant church in Ukraine.


We therefore ask you to bring to the attention of your government the instances of human rights abuse and discrimination against the Senior Pastor of The Embassy of the Blessed Kingdom of God For All Nations Church in Kyiv, Ukraine.


This is what you can specifically do:

1. Help to bring this question to the attention of your government and have them contact the Ukrainian government on this matter.

2. As the case is now, only a direct appeal to the President of Ukraine, Victor Yanukovych, could stop this injustice against the Senior Pastor of the Embassy of God Church, Pastor Sunday Adelaja. So we kindly ask that President Yanukovych government’s attention be drawn to the injustice against the church and her Senior Pastor.

3. If you have any connection with any World or European civil rights organization and organizations on religious freedom and xenophobia, please, contact them about the situation with Pastor Sunday.

4. If there is a way to get in touch with heads of states, presidents, and powerful political figures, people like President Obama, Hilary Clinton, European Union President, Tony Blair and other
former or presents world leaders, who could give the Ukrainian President a call directly, we ask you to help raise this topic with them.

5. Time is of extreme importance. On the 28th of August Pastor Sunday has been invited to the police station where all the other accused people in this case were arrested. Please, let’s act now.


Thank you so much for your cooperation!


May the Lord bless you as you keep defending the interest of the weak and vulnerable!


We have included the contact details below and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Ignorance just as Cap28 highlighted can kill. Many do not know what awaits them in these countries. Most are open-minded folks who see other human beings as themselves not knowing that the world at large is a very selfish and dangerous place.

I was naive like them until i came up close with these people and my philosophy and love for history dramatically changed overnight.

Europeans and Western philosophers and psychologists demoralised and dehumanised Africans. These philosophers and psychologists are celebrated in European cultures and their books are widely read. This is where the fundamental problem lies.

Until our people begin to study other cultures and how they see and take us, will we begin to see fundamental change or else the menace will continue.

But unfortunately, majority of our people are in denial.

You mean people like Karl Marx? Those guys were a figure of their time. Back in those days most people were very racist towards Africans. But if you look at ancient philosophy you would see that Aristotle and Platos were not really racist. THey loved Africans. Different but equal. Also many of the best greeks went to Egypt to study and they brought that knowledge back to greece to build it. Africans influenced Ancient Greece!!

Ancient philosophers were more natural and approached issues from the universal point of view.

Many Philosophers from the 10thcentury and especially during the Age of Reason contributed to this menace.

Hitler and to some extent the general german population were influenced by many german racist philosophers.

David Hume. A highly respected Scottish philosopher in western culture said in his essay;

"I am apt to suspect that the negro to be naturally inferior to the whites. There scarcely ever was a civilized nation of that complexion, nor even any individual, eminent either in action or speculation. No ingenious manufactures amongst them, no arts, no sciences. On the other hand, ancient Germans , the present Tartars, have still something eminent about them, in their valour, form of government, or some other particular. Such a uniform and constant difference could not happen, in so many countries and ages, if nature had not made an original distinction between these breeds of men. Not to mention our colonies, there are negro slaves dispersed all over Europe, of whom none ever discovered the symptoms of ingenuity, though low people, without education, will start up amongst us, and distinguish themselves in every profession. In Jamaica, indeed, they talk of one negro as a man of parts and learning; but it is likely he is admired for slender accomplishments, a parrot who speaks a few words plainly".

There are many more like him.

You see in Africa and blacks as a whole, i think we need Social and moral revolution before economics. We need to reconstruct our moral and social system that have been infected for centuries.

Good point bother. Also history to empower us!! I know many Africans with low self esteem and no knowledge of African history. Thisi s very bad for nation building.
