I agree Quality and Quantity must match for it to be acceptable. We need good balance.
Jesus had the 1 beloved, the 3, the 12, the 70 the 120 and the multitude. At pentecost, we see 3000 saved in a day at the coming of the holy spirit and many more added daily to the church. These were the ones who went everywhere preaching the word when persecution began and they became scattered but like we've established , Discipleship usually thins out the crowd.
Some folks think they're right cos they're scanty, an extreme view. Others are at the other extreme think crowd mean approval... We must have a balanced approach... and make sure we are doing the will of God.
Jesus says to go into ALL the world and make disciples of All NATIONS...
Hence we should build capacity to match both Quantity and Quality.
We should also know that a kingdom divided against itself would not stand hence we should stand together in the place of prayers, love and kingdom labor

DesignAndBuild:


So in your head, Jesus died painfully for the whole world to be saved and come to the Father through him, yet same Jesus will be the one supporting the act of reducing the number of people who come to the Father? That doesn't sound foolish even to you?

I pray you truly allow the truth of God's word prevail on you, rather than holding on to a foolish stance all in order to avoid admitting that you erred on this one. This is all I'll say to you

jesusjnr2020:
Thanks bro. Thank God not everyone lacks the orientation of Jesus where quality supersedes numbers. Really sad though how we expect to do things differently from Him and still achieve the same results.

May God help us to get back to the example Jesus set for us.

God bless.

Inferring that a ministry is false cos it has large crowds
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them. And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

I agree with you, that's why in my previous quote I said both should be prioritized.

I think a building of 36billion is way too excessive,

We must also commend Churches when they do well.
I know of Churches that have free School ,hospitals , rehabilitate prostitutes and armed robbers and lots of other things they do Here in Nigeria.

My argument is that most people behind this movement hate Christianity and they are hiding behind this kind of argument to ridicule christianity.

blueAgent:
In US their are thousands of Churches but no one is complaining that US unemployment is becos of too many Churches that is becos in every society there is division of labour ,you cannot blame the failure of a failed and useless government and private sector on Churches.

blueAgent:


The fact remains that jobs were created, although temporarily.

Whether it was the next of kin of the top men or not.

What I see is a trend where Nigerian youths channel their anger to the wrong direction instead of holding their government and themselves responsible they are blaming the Churches.

Am not holding brif for the Churches but my question is if you remove all the Churches in Nigeria today would we have more factories and less unemployment?
The answer is No.

The core of our problem is lack of creative and entrepreneurial skills not Church.

In Nigeria we have resources that are not harnessed due to lack of those skills I mentioned, so how is the Church responsible for that?

Before Christianity came to Africa and Nigeria to be precise how many companies and business where existing?
The last time I checked the Churches are
one of the largest employers of labour in Nigeria, Winners Chapel has over 3000 pastors who are paid by the Church, same with MFM, Redeemed, Assemmblies of God, Catholic, Adventist, I can go on and on.

All the challenges in Nigeria are gold mines for those (government and private sector) who have hind sight but instead we seat on our ass and blame the Church.
I agree that Nigerians are over religious, but I refuse to believe that it is the reason for our undevelopment.

The fact remains that most of the achievements in nigeria, be it companies, brands,industries where created by christains. the question am asking is, what has Atheists done for Nigeria?

True.
But You forget that thousands of jobs were created through the construction of that building.

This is what sycophants Christians love.
Howbeit as a Christ Love Follower ill prefer they organize help out reach to the down trodden communities around that area with a crowd funding process ....so many people are lacking and suffering within Nigeria....if they all (70 thousand) crowd fund weekly with a token of #20(twenty naira) that's #5.6million monthly that can be used to help the poor among them and in that community!.
BTW I'm sure there's no way a social distancing process was kept in the gathering.

In another news kindly reach me for your child(ren) safety gadgets at a token price.

Proactivity Leads To Productivity!!!!

This might seem ordinary to most minds.. but in politics this is a master stroke. This is smart... today I respect the SW in politics..

This is "I appreciate your good gesture towards me, but you may be getting it wrong on a wider scale"...

What the SW Elders just said to all regions:
To the SE - For most of us, Deep inside there is no hate, the squabbles are only on the surface..

To the SS - Brotherhood goes beyond similar names or culture..

To the NW/NE - We dont have to implore War initiatives just because people have dissenting opinions..

To the middle belt - those that amplified your struggles to be heard, need your voice sometimes..

What we see as oratory in this part of the world is when someone is verbally abusive, condescending and "toutish".

I sorry for us.

Oshiomole is highly educated in his mind.
What you are referring to as his not being educated is just class room attendant.
Check out the history of inventors in the beginning and up until now, they are the people who have little classroom education but are highly educated in their minds.
So, Oshiomole is highly educated.
