The bible says we should give unto Cesar what is due for Cesar and God what is due for him. Oonirisha is not an idol name, its like olubadan, owa obokun, there is nothing wrong if a christian becomes a king. It is to the glory of God. The first president of christ apostolic church (CAC) was ibadan king and he was regarded till today as one of the greatest man of God.

please what is the name of the Ibadan king?

Rossikki:
Ignorant dunce. Who told you the Ooni sacrifices chickens and goats and blows fire from his mouth? Dummy. And you must be the ultimate retar.d to not know that EVERY single Christian ritual is of PAGAN origins. So take your high falutin, fake christian arrogance and stick it up your stinky asss.

The Jews were never happy with Jesus either. In fact, they just screened at him tore their clothes, and got Pilate to beat him up and crucify him.

Read church history. Make sure you select the right books.

When was Christianity brought to Africa ?? 300 years ago
What was people in Africa practicing ?? Traditional culture of course.

OK! So what do you have to say about Islam??

Yes, its possible. He only needs to renounce and abstain from all traditional rights in agreement with his subjects.
The immediate past monarch of Imeko Town, the Olumeko of Imeko in Ogun state was a member of Celestial Church of Christ before he became the ruler of his town. He refused to undergo all the usual traditional rites sticking to his born-again belief. After his enthronement, he banned all traditional rites and festivals in the town during Celestial ceremonies and pilgrimage in the town. Later, he was taken to court by the traditional people but won the case on the premise that since the people willingly accepted to crown him without going through their traditional rites, they were subject to his directives whilst he remained on the throne.

I learnt his successor is a pastor in Redeemed church but i know not what transpired before or during his coronation.

To answer the OP Christians can hold any position on earth, the bible even instructs us to 'subdue' the earth..... For example the former Akila Of Erin Ijesha was a Christian, member of the Christ Apostolic Church. (dead now) he stopped sacrifices to the river.... And if u want me to enlighten u about African (Yoruba) religion tell me I learnt a lot from Prof. 'Wande Abimbola....

princey83:
you can't eat your cake and have it too. it's not possible. only if you know what is involved in becoming and ruling as a 1st class oba in yorubaland.

Just to give you an hint. In ife, when the king dies. Some body parts are seperated and buried all around the entrances of ife, the heart is removed and made as part of a concussion meal for the coming ooni to eat before he adcends the throne. The family of the last ooni didnt want to surrender his body as they are aware of this, but they eventually did to avoid repercussions on the family.

There is a price you pay for everything irredpective of whether you become born again or not. That is why if you get involved in blood money, and sleep in church from now till thy kingdom come, you would eventually pay.

Since christianity frowns at the above practice, then let us keep religion seperate from culture.

This is serious, eating the heart of a king, from what you wrote above it means the current Oni ate the heart of his predecessor, na wao

no no no no no!!

Oba's Priestly duties

As a sacred ruler, the Oba is traditionally regarded by the Yoruba as the ex officio chief priest of all of the Orisha cults in his or her domain. Although most of the day-to-day functions of this position are delegated in practice to such figures as the Babalawos, certain traditional rites of the Yoruba religion can only be performed by the Oba, and it is for this reason that the holders of the title are often thought of as being religious leaders in addition to being politico-ceremonial monarchs.

The current Olu of yewa, HRM, Oba Kehinde Gbadewole Olugbenle was an area pastor in Redeem Christian church of God, Abuja before he was crowned. The G.O. Fully supported his coronation and he still attends service at redemption camp up till date.

PAUL THE APOSTLE DID MORE THAN 100 TIMES OF WHAT U JUST SAID. INFACT HE PERSECUTED AND WAS PART OF THOSE THAT KILLED APOSTLE STEVEN BY STONING BECAUSE STEVEN WAS A FOLLOWER OF JESUS AND AT THE END, HE WORKED TO FULFIL THE PURPOSE OF JESUS ON EARTH. PLS TAKE YOUR TIME TO READ AND DIGEST THE PERSONALITY OF JESUS BEFORE MAKING COMMENTS ABOUT HIM. MAY GOD IN HIS INFINITE MERCY FORGIVE U AND MAKE YOUR WAYS STRAIGHT BEFORE HIM. STAY BLESSED.

Its people like you we pray for..Jesus Loves you

First of all, the term ''traditional ruler'' suggests you're a foreigner. Are you from Britain? France? America?

We, the African people are the traditional and natives the British allude to when they say ''traditional''. Traditional ruler is how European colonialists and slave raiders addressed African leaders and still do, because they (British) are foreigners. Therefore, its not incumbent on you as an African to address your leader as traditional. Each time we do this we're simply without shame reciting like a baby how a whiteman would say it.

When we use terms like native medicine or and traditional ruler to address our medicines and rulers, it's like a child reciting ''Z'' is for Zebra. Take the child to a zoo and he can't identify a zebra!. The child is simply reciting what the teacher and textbook told him/her to say.

I've looked into these things and can see clearly there's something wrong with the system of education we inherited from Britain. This education succeeded in schooling us to be copy cats and inferiors!.

It appears we've been brainwashed beyond repair!. And the worst are the so called educated Africans.

This's why I have concluded ''intellectual slavery'' is the worst legacy of colonialism.

@OP, this post is not about you, but the mass brainwashing of Afrians that have been going on for over 450 years.

But What?

kenny091:
In light of the Ooni of Ife's recent gaffe when he said Jesus is his father, whereas his title as king of ife literarily means Oonirisa (leader of the Orisha). Ooni aside, traditional rulers generally perform a lot of roles that are in tandem with the African traditional religion and it is statedin the bible that no one can serve two masters. So what are the chances of a born again christian being a traditional ruler.

yes its possible only if he converts the traditional kingdom to the kingdom of God and rule by the word of God.

What do you mean? Are you the registrar of heaven? There are kings that would surely make heaven. Have heard of late Oba I.B Akinyele of Ibadan
Onpetu of Ijeru land in Ogbomoso is good living example.

Christianity is not traditional to Africa. ... any traditional ruler who is a "born again" is a hypocrite.


the bible infact condemns african traditional thrones. .. these thrones are tied to local deities
