with all these,nigerians are getting more hostile,worldly and barbaric.....no sign of godliness in nigerians christians......nigerians are the biggest hypocrites in d world
That's because the churches are not their to correct the ills in the society it's just money making organizations . Is it not ironic that we are one of the most religious yet among the most corrupt?

You are a big liar, the first church started the day the Apostles were baptised with the holy ghist and 3000 people were added to that church that day after the preaching of peter. Go read Acts 2:47 or whole of Act chapter 2. Apostle paul himself took the gospel to Rome and rome was a pagan nation back then that worship idols etc

my bro, I have few questions for you, don't be baised in answering it:

what is the name of that church formed on the penticost day, after Peter's preaching?

is that church still in existence ?

which church did tha Catholic church break out from ?

which church pre exist the Catholic church?

answer those question without sentiment and bias.

shalom.

All most all these churches were founded by Yoruba's.we most give them credit on their hard work to spread d good news of Jesus Christ to people of Nigeria and the world in general. I pray that they will not miss their reward in heaven.

Very surprised today to see some young boys and a lady with them, believe to be coming from church and small Bible in the hands of the lady, telling each other the "zoo must fall, Buhari is an Idiot" i think going to church is a waste.

Jesus Christ didn't found the Romans Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic Church was founded in Rome by the Romans. Jesus founded THE CHURCH consisting of all Christians regardless of denomination.

Very funny!!! Which roman founded the catholic church and in what year?

It is not by numbers but the catholic church has more than just numbers!! It is apostolic in the sense that it has an unbroken link to the apostles themselves!!it is in reality the only apostolic church in the world today.Only the eastern orthodox churches comes any closer to it

OP, most of the Churches you mentioned are penticostal churches, and you cannot talk of penticostal churches without first mentioning ASSEMBLIES OF GOD CHURCH because Assemblies of God Church is the mother of all penticostal churches in Nigeria. It was established in the 1930s in old Umuahia in the present day Abia State, and it is the first penticostal church to exist. All other penticostal churches stemmed out from Assemblies of God Church. Moreover, although Assemblies of God Church today seems to have lost its tenet and stronghold, it was the most popular and the best in terms of true christianity and genuine practice of Godliness in years back. So please OP go and do your research well.
NOTE: I am not a member of Assemblies of God Church. Rather, I am a member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. So dont think I am sentimental.
