Religious Intitutions In Nigeria! Ways Forward. by GLOBALINF: 8:27am On Jul 30, 2017
Good morning and happy Sunday friends,
It's so unfortunately to see our religious body meek us dry all in the name of giving us education. So sad so many religious institutions are just there to make surplus profits, given little or no interest In the quality of education they rendered. My questions is; those regions universities, can they match up with contemporary universities outside Nigeria? Considering the heavy amount paid by parents? E.g...

BOWEN UNIVERSITY N650,000 per semester
COVENANT UNIVERSITY N640,000 per semester
BENSON IDAHOSA N500,000 per semester
BABCOCK UNIVERSITY N450,000 per semester
REDEEMERS UNIVERSITY N450,000 per semester
AJAYI CROWTHER UNIVERSITY N350,000 per semester
MADONNA UNIVERSITY N350,000 per semester.
Etc

All these UNIVERSITIES were built from TITHES and
OFFERINGS of the common people who now can't afford to send their children to these schools today.
Where is the morals and responsibilities of the
churches as charity in Nigeria?
What is the difference between church and political leadership in Nigeria?
These schools were all built with the sweats of their church members who kept sowing seeds like:
-special offering seeds
-first fruit seed,
-redemption seed,
-thanksgiving seed,
-harvest seed,
-tithes,
-pastor's seed,
-church building seed,
-evangelism seed,
-father's day seed,
-mother's day seed,
-children' day seed,
-Pastor's cake seed,
-olive oil seed....etc.

These schools are now elite schools, only for the rich politician children.
The gainers then use the profits to buy private planes & jets to fly up high in luxury, ride Exotic Cars and live in expensive Mansions, while their members, (who are mostly the least of Jesus people) sleep hungry.
On Sunday, they will read Malachi 3:6-12 to these members again without making reference to Deuteronomy 14:22-29 about their own responsibility to these poor members in their churches.
Thank God for early missionaries who built schools and gave basic education FREE or NEAR FREE to many of us including the CURRENT LEADERSHIP of these churches and universities.
When the missionaries came, if they have insisted on high premium for education, I'm sure most our so called pastors and politicians will still be in the village cultivating yam and cassava.
Private universities owned by private institutions are understandable cos it's a profit making organisation
But what do we call the religious body charging high premium for education. I know of a religious university that despite the fact that their parents paid high fee for tuition, they still buy results and bribe lecturer, some sleep with lecturers to pass!
Government came up with tax for religious bodies and regulations for leadership of the churches just the way it's done in other developed countries, it's still we the masses that were criticising the government quoting "touch not my anointed stuff" yet the so called "anointed" can afford to buy private jet, build mansion in choice location, take his family abroad for vacation, send all his children oversea for better education, and even sleeps with prostitutes all with your tithe and offering.
Friends, we need to wake up and stop celebrating "men of god".
We need to wise up, seek a better life for ourselves and don't be fooled by those men.
If you have the opportunity, send your kids abroad for better education, enjoy your life to the fullest, that your tithe is someone's breakthrough, look around you, you will see those in dear need of the fraction of your income, give them that tithe, the tithe can change a whole family life. Stop giving them to pastors. House of God is that small family that need to send their children to school, that neighbour dying of hunger, that friend that can't pay for medical bills. Those are the people that need your tithe.
Finally, like I have said, if you can afford it, try check out and study abroad, you will understand better why we are easily fooled in this country. You will understand that is absolutely possible to have 24/7 electricity, good roads, dignity of labour, peaceful and serene environments and most importantly value for human life.
Countries that are not as wealthy, blessed, and smart as we Nigerians are enjoying those amenities
So what is our problem?
Good morning
