The present situation of the country has been compounded because the church with all its wealth! has failed humanity and God.
After the great commission ordered by christ to his disciples and fellow christians to take the Gospel all over the world,there is no other thing the church has set up that is impacting positively on the society.
Instead of gaining souls of men for the kingdom of Heaven,laying up treasures up above,the church is becoming a profit based organization,a babylon buying and selling the things of God.
They have not set up universities,schools,markets,petrol stations,business empires that would ameliorate the hardship of fellow poor christians,instead such establishments are draining the christain masses.
set up things that would help and not classify the righteous with the ungodly!
There is an example of a christain woman who has a petrol station called
BOVAS!! she sells at official pump prize of N143 inspite of this hardship.it is a relief to other christains and a blessing to the world.

Your article is generalistic and doesn't portray the menace going on in the church. Yes I say so because there are many churches that had helped humanity. You don't expect them to go on air broadcasting their achievement because it is not necessary as the scriptures doesn't support that. However in writing an article to raise issues going on in the church, words like "many" ,"most ", should be used. For example many churches had deviated from what they are called to do would be the ideal thing instead of saying the churches in Nigeria had failed or deviated. Aside that, whatever you see happening in the church today had happened before. The letters to the seven churches in Asia comes to mind. The situation then are not different from what most churches are today. Don't also forget that we are in perilous times as the love for God will go cold.
May the Lord bless you from Zion.
Shalom

you are right but what am saying is that are the churches helping for gain

what i meant is that are the churches helping for gain or to what purpose is the gain?
churches have universities but is it benefitting the needy and less privileged christians or is it placing a heavy burden on fellow christians to an extent they cannot afford to pay school fees of their wards and are owing church universities or wat is the thing that is going on whereby churches build up institutions or factories or businesses and they do not employ fellow christians or it does not solve their current situation or direct or indirect employment.
is the church a gaining profit wealth enterprise.we must not quantify souls that should be saved with money,wealth,or businesses.
