Christianity EtcRe: Why Are Yorubas Few In The Roman Catholic And Also Few Yoruba Revd Fathers? by Emmieakon1(m): 10:39pm On Apr 02, 2017
As a Yoruba man nd a practicing Catholic, I will ansa dis 2 d best I knw.
1) Because they first receive Anglican communion b4 the Catholic Church came over.
2)Our fore fathers sees some of the Catholic practices as a threat to deir own beliefs. E.g The issue of Celibacy, sacrament of confession etc
3)As at when d Anglican came in, they arrive with dos dt undastand the Yoruba language, I.e they had interpreter, nd some were Yorubas that has accepted the faith outside Yoruba jurisdiction, where as the Catholic missionaries then are white, so they couldn't convert more due to language barrier
4) On y we have more Igbo Priests to Yoruba, I reserve dt, but I can say categorically that we have more Yoruba Priests now, I cn list and count if not more than, den something close to 100 Yoruba Priests in Lagos and Ibadan provinces..








Am open to answer any questions as long as it's about Catholic and Catholicism as long as it's genuine and not religious bigotry

Adeoba10:
You are 100% right... We dont worship mere mortal like Holy prophet Jesus, we worship the ONE who sent JESUS...
The Bible has said it all, "my pple perish (muslims) especially because they lack wisdom"
How can u say ur acclaimed prophet wu u all know to be servant of God send Jesus who is the son of God message?
Hop ur rationality is nt failing sort of?

Christianity EtcRe: What Is The Difference Between A Christian And A Disciple? by Emmieakon1(m): 8:21am On Aug 07, 2016
For the little I knw
" A disciple is a follower of Christ, his teachings nd all that got to do with The leader." While "Christians simply mean, 'Christ-like', I.e an imitator of Christ, be His teachings, life, nd all abt his person.." so I dare to say. there is Bt a little difference btw d 2.

PoliticsRe: Osinbajo: GEJ, Yar’adua Didn’t Build A Single Road. The Cable. by Emmieakon1(m): 9:21am On Feb 27, 2016
I tink APC shld rather be ACP meaning All Confused People, cos dey Dnt jst prove to us dt dey av no plans, dey r jst confirming it dat dey r all confused being dt cn not just plan nor tink straight...
I bet Osinbajo as it names implies will turn out worst liar than bro Lie Muhammad, nd I wish he doesn't "ko Osi ba Ijo" because if as a Xtian Nd a pastor he can be dis dull nd lyin type, den less ho hope 4 d future ooo.
In case he has no example, I will tel him just 1, he's 4rm Lagos, so he shld know beta.. Lagos Ibadan Xpress road, is nt just widened, BT reconstructed by Jonathan, dt was d same road Obasanjo culd nt do 2ru out his regime.
Lastly, wat appens to Fashola comment abt Jonathan nd road construction?. APC shld learn, its not a must u paint sme1 black al because u want to be White.. Its a sign of irresponsible nd immaturity.. Learn to accept wat u cn change nd change wat u can.. No mata ur statement abt Jona, u cnt change him nor our views abt him...

ultraGM:
It was wrong, the decision was wrong, church elders do not have right to disturb the flowing of how the Spirit is moving and MOG, in exception of sin. what Fr Mbaka was not sinfull, in fact was obedient to the bible

=> Declare the mind of God
=> Honour the King
=> Respect those who have rule over you

He was invited by the President, was he suppose to reject the IV?
This is Politics in the house of God and must be corrected BUT if he had used 6 year, which regular routine all is well and if he is justly reposted and not because his activities in Nigeria today

Christianity EtcRe: Fr Mbaka Transferred From His Parish In Enugu & Left Without A Parish - IgbereTv by Emmieakon1(m): 10:15pm On Jan 15, 2016
4 me, I see no problem wit dis, am a catholic nd I bliv d church as jst help him and not taking dt far from his ministry ground, he is now a residential priest wich will giv him more time 4 his program, nd easy assess to other invitation within and out his diocese.. If u ask Fr Ubaka himself, he wil no feel so bad with d posting d way we r taking it.. He's a priest nd he will remain, so being a parish priest or asst or residential do not take anytin 4rm him... They av jst help him to have more time nd devotions
