Corona Virus Humbles World Religion And Exposes Their Weakness by heartbraker(m): 6:20pm On Mar 19, 2020
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was the first to announce the cancellation of pilgrimage to the kingdom over the fear of Corona Virus. The virus is not a respecter of any stone throwing at the devil. It will consume both the stone and the person throwing it. The virus is the known devil and it’s not respecter of anything.

The Vatican has also announced the cancellation of this year Easter celebration in their holy city because an unholy virus that is ravaging the city. The virus is not a respecter of sacraments or Holy Communion.

Ghana has ban all religious gathering for the next four weeks. No one will go to church for four weeks in that country and heaven will not fall. A devil is out of a science lab and it refuses to die by Holy Ghost fire.

In Lagos, Governor Sanwo Olu, has also announced the suspension of all religious gathering of more than 50 people in the state. All prayer and fasting will now be done indoor. Daddy GO, Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church who earlier brag that none of his members will be affected by the virus was the first to comply with the Lagos State Government’s directive asking his members to observe only house fellowship until the science came up with the solution.

Interestingly all the medical laboratories in the world are open with scientists working day and night to save the world from a virus that can wipe out the entire humanity before the second coming of Jesus Christ.

This situation brings us to the age long debate between Religion and Science. To some who believe that Science is God, this is their proud moment and to those who believes everything their priest tells them this a moment for a rethink and that is on a personal note.

On a general note and particularly in Africa, this period present us a unique opportunity to review our investments in religion and science and chose wisely.

In Africa, we have become so religious that no other things matter anymore. People do night vigils every day; they fast and pray 365 days a year. They become weak and tired, spending too much time where there is little or no solution.

Now that trouble has come to the world, where do we look up to Science or Religion? How many of our miracle working pastors can come out and look at corona virus in the face and command it to go, like the way they command HIV and other forms of diseases. They dare not!

I am not saying there is no place for religion in the human existence but the amount of energy and investment in religion in African does not match the goodness it brings to our society.

The Boko Haram Terrorists are killing in Nigeria North East in the name of their religion. Nigerian government is spending close to N 1 billion naira daily to fight this evil created by religion and its addicts.

I am not sure if there is any Teaching Hospital or Research institute in Nigeria who has access to this kind of money that Nigerian government is using in fighting the virus of religious bigotry.

Americans government believes in God, they said it all the time 'In God We Trust'. President Trump even declared a national day of prayers last week but there is a place of religion and science in their activities. When America needed to kill a terrorist troubling the peace of their land, they did not declare a day of fasting and prayer. They went into their laboratory and brought out a drone that can secretly go and do the job, even outside their territory. Science did it for them not prayers. There are many thing Science and Technology can do if we concentrate our energy on it.

With the way religious activities has taken over all our civilization in Africa when trouble comes all these foreign religion might not be able to save us but science will; that is why we need to set our priorities right and invest more in science and less in religion.

No, I expect a pastor to miraculously heal one Corona case. We have seen it on TV how they heal HIV. We have watched lots of miracles. Now is the time this is needed mostly . This is even an avenue to gain more souls as most people will be convinced beyond reasonable doubt.

Impressive writeup i must say.

But two questions I have for you.

1. Are you a Christian?
2. If your answer to 1 is yes, are you born again?

If you're neither of the two, it accounts for your lack of knowledge of the secret things of the most High God.

Drop religion! Jesus Christ the Savior of the world did not preach religion. Give your life to Him and follow Him with all your heart. Then and only then will events happening now and what genuine meb of God are saying and doing make meaning to you.

Shalom!

You people are just delebrately being unjust.

Since the beginning of this whole thing the pastors have been at the receiving end, most especially in Nigeria. Even the Chinese who are the most affected never see it as occasion to crucify the pastors among them.

n if I may ask you people, are the pastors the cause of this epidemic ?

What would you have them do

To go from street to street and be hunting for coronavirus patients so that they could heal them?
Or, to bust into the isolation centers without formal invitations from the authorities in the name of wanting to prove the doubters wrong?


What do you want them to do exactly?

Are pastors your problems ?

The government made an order to stop large gatherings of people and these influential pastors choose to lead by example, and all you could do is to demand their heads.

Pls what is their sin excatly, bcs I don't understand ?
Bcs I'm very disturbed about the rants all over NL against the pastors most especially, on any coronavirus thread !

Pls free these people, they are not your problem, neither are they the cause of the virus.

If the government needs their help,they will be invited and if they refuse to show up, then that'll be a different case.......
Re: Corona Virus Humbles World Religion And Exposes Their Weakness by Sibrah: 9:44pm On Mar 19, 2020
There are many senseless assumptions in this post. Some persons have survived the virus so far and that is in contradiction to the part that says the whole world may be wiped out before the second coming of Jesus.

Reading further I realized what OP is ranting about is more about blaming religious activities for our plight in Africa.
that's wrong, in fact the faking and feigning of spirituality is the real challenge. A goes to church on Sunday and hears a balanced and sound message that discourages bribe but on Monday morning decides to give bribe. Do we blame religion, the pastor, God or the man for this 180 degree deviation from a sound and balanced doctrine? The man is clearly the fault here. Before religion came weren't we naked and selling ourselves to white men?
Weren't we sacrificing ourselves to god of the land to appease them to help stop crude oil from coming out the land?

Religion is the solution but has to be applied deligently and not halfheartedly like we are doing.

We acknowledge God when we want to blame Him but doubt his existense when faced with God's instruction. That's the problem.
