Can our understanding of who Jesus is be cause of the proliferation of churches in Nigeria? |

IN MY OPINION, OUR DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR SURVIVAL AND LIVELIHOOD HAS MADE US TO SEE JESUS AS "SOLUTION" TO PROBLEMS. THUS, ANYWHERE A "BIBLE COLLEGE GRAGUATE" SEES A FRUSTRATED PEOPLE WHO WANT TO ALLEVIATE ITSELF FROM SORROWS AND SUFFERING, HE ESTABLISHES A CHURCH BECAUSE HE KNOWS THAT, AT LEAST, SOMEONE WILL COME LOOKING FOR SOLUTION. JESUS IS SEEN AS A MAGIC MAN WHO TURNS FORTUNES AROUND. THE "BIBLE COLLEGE GRADUATE" ALSO KNOW AS PASTOR, IS IN SEARCH OF LIVELIHOOD; NOW HE FINDS SOMETHING TO DO IN THE NAME OF JESUS. JESUS HENCE, BECOMES AN "OPIUM" WE TAKE; BUT JESUS IS GRAETER THAN THAT. THERE IS THUS NO NEED FOR INCREASE IN CHURCHES; LET US TAKE CARE OF THE ONES WE ALREADY HAVE. |
