The same God that the same Europeans gave Africans. In this current age of vast knowledge, people are beginning to research & know the truth about religion & how it was used to control & enslave the world. Infact, una never see or hear anything yet.

Jesus referred to God as our Father, clearly identifying him as masculine.

I don't know what has gotten over these people.

Read my posts properly. The whiteman is right to call you a monkey because you have hands but cannot think of a solution to solve your problems.

Till today, some of you think shouting amen can solve economic problems.

Anglican church should separate the monarchy from the church.

Just few days ago, they legalized Anglican same sex marriage, now this.

The Catholic church they broke away from has refused to ordain females, wed same sex marriage, so why is Anglican allowing the political royal family to influence it's dogma and doctrines?

Have they solved all of their problems? Many africans are very successful and many whites are not so that's just typical racism.

Don't even waste your saliva. They are serving it already. People that colonized India with force, and now an Indian is now leading them by the nose as PM.

There is no bigger punishment than one's former subject becoming his boss. They are gone already.

I've always thought it's misogynistic to refer to God as HE.

You are wrong. That is even an insult to the animal kingdom. Homosexuality is not in the nature of animals. You can never see a male animal mounting another male or a female mating another female animal, never!

Christians are crazy! We always said it that the Devilish religion is Christianity while Islam is the antidote that checkmates it's evil activities. Gradually the world will finally see what Christianity is. Just last week it was Pope wailing on behalf of gay people to be accepted. Lol, devils exposed!

Gentlemen, the war against men has taken a new dimension.

Well. Let them finish what they have started.


When God was referred to as a woman you didn't say it was a war against women abi?


You cannot be more religious than the people that gave you the religion

The church is been side lined gradually. Recently we read a news that they signed same sex marriage in churches not today this news.

This are the real signs of end time
nothing new, with time you will know those who run Christianity and I think we're in the time already. Let me give you clue: browse about why Pope bows and kisses the hands of men like David Rockefeller, John Rothschild, Henry Kissinger

The three Christian leaders spoke out on LGBTQ rights during an unprecedented joint airborne news conference.

Creation was a spiritual phenomenon. It was formation that went awry for those LGBT folks. Throughout the bible, spiritual bondage, imprisonment, oppressions, pits, sales and death was inferred but never spiritual deformity. Confused lots. God is a He.

Their madness is now beyond repair. I will not be suprise if Africa follows their pattern. Satan will always place his men/women in top positions in churches before he takes over. To every Christian know this: Christ is the author and finisher of our faith. Put your trust on Christ alone, not your pastor. Hebrews 12:2.

Stop ranting
If they didn't tell you about Jesus and Jewish god,will you know they believe in anything like that?

Their sickness, their madness. They can't teach us our culture and how we serve God. It gladdens my heart that the Nigeria communion of the Anglican Church decided not to embrace their Sodom and Gomorrah malady.

With this one, they are further a step in the hell direction. I don't know how else you want me to refer to God if Jesus has taught me to address Him as 'my Father in heaven' (Matthew 6:9). Their self-inflicted illness shall not be our portion in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

You people are quick to point out that they're trying to bring down Christianity, you didn't see the fact that using the words; He, Him or Our are just words that makes communication understandable.

Now this should be our focus that using those words to describe God doesn't mean we're tagging God to be male, the purpose is to avoid repetition. Just the way people call our names, and use those pronouns instead of repeating your name.

God shouldn't be Gender ... I refer to God as "It"

E.g Almighty God of the Universe and Everything Therein Itself .....

God is not a Man! ... God is a Scientist not an Abracadabra! ....

The Sciences Unknown to Human Knowledge Sphere is Referred to as "Spiritualism" ...

Once Spiritualism get Debunked(Interpreted to Human Mental/Logical Sphere) it becomes Sciences ......

God is Never a Him But a "It" ....
let us create a man in our own image " he created adam a " he " .

calling GOD IT IS A CURSE ONTO ONES SELF, BECUS GOD IS LIVING.
