This is the reality today for African Christians.
A pastor will be burning charms in pots, Alfas will be chasing lizards up and down for their dirty concoction.

I doubt if Christians that will make heaven in Nigeria reach 100.

Africans use juju in addition to their religious beliefs.

Religious leaders are more into juju than others.

Juju is a derogatory name for African indigenous science. Stop demonizing it . Christianity has killed more people on earth than evil Africans will ever do. From heresy ti crusade to people killed due to blasphemy. The letter king Leopoldo wrote to the early missionaries is a clear evidence. Africans needs to stop and stop . It’s always a victory when a pastor burns down a traditional worshippers shrine but a problem when boko haram bombs a church. Can’t your religion thrive without painting African culture and tradition as evil?? You all should serve your Israeli savior and stop demonizing others.

if the name of Jesus is powerful why doesn’t it burn those churches or shrines
You are very funny Tunde. Jesus remains the same yesterday, today and forever.

He doesn't need to prove himself by burning down anywhere.

Jesus already said, "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will see the kingdom of God.

You have to know God for yourself so you don't get deceived.

It is not new, it might be new to you, it has been since Christianity and Islam can to Nigeria, especially the orthodox churches, go to Ogun, Oyo state, a reverend or church leader is still a member of ogboni fraternity.
Just know about yourself and trust no one.

Religion is comedy for intelligent people. Make we dey look. Make we dey laugh.
Religion na one big comedy skit.
Nothing dey wrong with been part of a religious organization.
One go just learn how to leverage the relationship.
If there is any screwing over to be done. Make sure you're the one doing it. Not the other way around.

Is because they realized religion is a scam. And its profitable . In nollywood movie they make you think the name of Jesus will burn a shrine or kill a babalawo. In reality it doesn’t happen.

You are an idiot. There is POWER in the name of JESUS. That u don't believe doesn't make any difference.

if every part of God is understood,then he will be lying when he said his ways are not our ways.
Stop thinking about God,you can't and will never understood him!!

My family has been prayerful and we have dedicated everyone of us to God since I was small,but in our locality we are among the less fortunate,now how do we begin to imagine that a family that has been going to church,prayerful and steadfast in the lord will be this so unfortunate among others?___ken (a friend of mine reveals to me sometimes ago.

You can't take syncretism away from Nigerians.

Even the brand of Christianity y'all practice is the one that's closest to African traditional religion. Whereas the New Testament says you guys should worship your God in spirit and truth, it's not uncommon to see members of MFM, for instance, praying on water they brought to church. There was even an instance where Olukoya asked congregants to come with sand from their house in order to pray against enemies.

For the Muslims, mystical variants of Islam such as Sufism and Ahmadiyya are common in Nigeria because of its similarity with the African religions.

That's why I have always said ATR is the most common religion in Nigeria.

That is exactly what characterise religious people in Africa. They are not sincere, they are not honest. And that's why Africa has refuse to develop, when compared to other continents whose countries had independent same time with some African countries. Hypocrisy is problem.
