alBHAGDADI:
A post by a certain Bishop Sam Zuga is currently trending for a statement he made concerning religion. In the post, the Bishop claims Muslims are better than Christians. This he did with reasons but failed to back them up using the Quran or Bible.

https://www.nairaland.com/4369794/bishop-sam-zuga-why-muslims


Let's examine the reasons he gave to see whether they hold water or are simply falsehood issued to decieve the gullible.




The bishop has hinged his claim on the reason that the population of Muslims is competiting with that of Christianity. This is one big lie and it shows that he is not an informed person. Below is a list showing 7 religions and their population. You can find the list on google.

Christianity (2.1 billion)
Islam (1.3 billion)
Nonreligious (Secular/Agnostic/Atheist) (1.1 billion)
Hinduism (900 million)
Chinese traditional religion (394 million)
Buddhism 376 million.
Primal-indigenous (300 million)

Clearly, one can see that Christianity trumps Islam with over a billion adherents. So where did this bishop get his own statistics from? Perhaps he just assumed that it should be so simply because Muslims practice polygamy and love to give birth to many children. He forgot that however well their population is increasing, it is also decreasing due to the constant Muslim on Muslim violence.



There are also different versions of Quran just as we have it with the Bible (pls google up). The Bishop and many others believe that for there to be different versions of the Bible, it must mean that it has been tampered with. What this Bishop doesn't know is that he is simply ridiculing Islam which claims God's word cannot be tampered with.

Quran 6:115
SAHIH INTERNATIONAL
And the word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can alter His words, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

If that Bishop and all those who believe that the Quran and the Bible contain words of the same God, how come they believe that the words of that God in the Bible were tampered with when he himself said in the Quran that his words cannot be altered?

b. Prayer

What has the amount of times one prays got to do with who's better? And who told this bishop that it's only on Sundays Christians pray? Perhaps he expects to see Christians praying in the streets where all eyes can see, something the Pharisees of Jesus time use to do which He warned us against. Christians pray at anytime they want, not at designated times. They can pray at anytime cos they know their God is not the type that waits till a particular hour before he can listen to prayers.

c. Place of worship

Christians also worship anywhere they want and are even welcomed. No one will prevent you from worshipping in any Church governed by God, cos even non-christians are welcomed. Mr Bishop, can a Yoruba muslim be allowed to lead prayer in a mosque in Northern Nigeria?



I have never seen where a person is rejected by Christianity just because of the Church he attends. Christianity even welcomes people of other faith in Love. Do Sunni Muslims love Shia Muslims? NO. The reason why this Bishop is so accepted by Muslism to the point of him saying they allow him to preach in their mosque is simply because he only plays their tune, meaning he preaches another Jesus. The moment he starts telling them that Jesus is the Son of God, I can assure you that you and I know what will happen to him.



All Christian denominations hold that major believe that Jesus is God made flesh, no dispute about that. I now wonder what this man is talking about.

There are tonnes of fake Imams as much as fake pastors out there; the ones that sell human parts for rituals, the ones that inspire terrorists and jihadists and the ones that sleep with other people's wife.

Jesus Christ already told us not to let people know when we are fasting. That is why we dont broadcast it to the rest of the world. We simply keep it to ourselves.



How do you expect CAN to come and welcome you when they know that it is not Christianity you are preaching but Islam? Have you ever seen Muslims coming to welcome Reinhard Bonke or Bishop Oyedepo? They won't cos nothing they say interests them, infact their words are against the Islamic belief. So, if Muslims are welcoming you, just know that you are in league with them, perhaps their mole.



What this bishop is saying is that if a pastor should tell me to strap myself with a suicide vest and go blow up a Church or Mosque, I'm not to disobey. Now, we know why Northeast Nigeria is the way it is today.

The Quran can't be argued on cos questioning it can lead to beheadings and punishment.



If Christians are not united, how come they are not bombing each other's Church? How come they are not killing each other like we have it in the middle east?

Speaking of gifts, does this pastor know the amount of Christian organizations that have donated gifts to boko haram victims who are mostly Muslims, gifts that are sometimes prevented from the few Christians in the IDP camps?

Muslims believe in a twisted version of Jesus. How can they say they believe in Jesus yet they deny that he is the Son of God?

John 5:26

"For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself;

Matthew 3:17

and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased.".



I think this Bishop just successfully declared himself a false prophet who should be ignored by all means.

Habyz:
Good afternoon OP.
You are guilty of the crime you accused the "bishop" of. You didn't back up your claim with proof(s).
I'm not supporting the "bishop" or anything I am only interested in the truth.
1. The fact that a religion that was birthed years before another religion has more or less followers is not a mark to establish which of them is better.
2. provide us all with the "different versions of the holy Quran". When a version if the Bible contradicts what another version of the same BIBLE is saying isn't that enough reason to conclude that the holy Bible has been tampered with by humans? Or how is that ridiculing Islam?
The words of God cannot be tampered with because we all are supposed to know them by heart. So tell us how it is going to be tampered with when we know it in detail by heart.
God Almighty doesn't wait for designated times before he answers prayers, the solat is compulsory for every Muslim that is wise enough to know what to do and what not to do. How would you claim to worship God when you don't pray to him?
3. I have a lot of Christian friends and the majority of them won't step into another Church that isn't a branch of there church.
I suggest you do a little research on the history of the Shia and Sunni before saying anything about them.
Speaking of Jesus Christ there's only one versionof him and that is the prophet and messenger of God Almighty, he was the son of virgin Mary.
4. There are tons of fake imams sure but I have never come across it anywhere in any version of the Bible where Christ told anyone not to let people know when they are fasting. Please show it to us all.
5. Whether the leader of a Christian everyone organization welcomes this "bishop" or not is not a mark to show if Christianity is better.
6. You have at least heard of cases where pastors tell there congregation to drink engine oils right, there have been cases of pastors having sex with the wives of men in there congregation. We all know of the issue of tithing with pastors threatening there members with curses. Again I am not supporting this "bishop" but....
7. C'mon the case of America and Britain against Iraq and Iran is a perfect example of violence against islam.
Like i wrote earlier I have a lot of Christian friends and they are good people too.

WhoBeThisMan:

bgossipnaija:
I no this post will be remove but the truth must be told..


Before 1999, Tinubu had none of these:

1. Oriental Hotel
2. Falomo Shopping Complex
3. First Nation Airline
4. Lekki Concession Company
5. Apapa Amusement Park
6. Maiyegun Land Project
7. De Nation
8. Renaissance Hotel
9. Tejuoso Market (Joint ownership)
10. Ikeja Shopping Mall
11. TV Continental
12. Converted Lagos Poly land for TVC
13. Owned NNPC Office building in Lagos
14. Radio Continental (Max FM)
15. Owned School of Nursing building in Lagos
16. Tax Collector of Lagos State (Alpha Beta)
17. Wife is a member of the National Assembly
18. Son-in-law is a member of the National Assembly
19. Daughter is the President-General of Market Women Association in Lagos
20. N4 billion government financed property for self at Queens Drive, Lagos.

Tinubu acquired all of the above and many more not listed after he became Governor of Lagos State, first in 1999 and won his second term in 2003. He remains Governor Emeritus of Lagos, controlling the State’s treasury through his protege Governor Fashola and govnor ambode na the same people Joor*Pensive*

NOTE:
if are condemning DEZANI ALISON MADUEKE calling her a criminal but u are praising Tinubu, u deserve to be stoned bcs they are both executive criminals.

opribo:
I am not okay?

opribo:
No, I'm not crying for him but millions he is leading astray with this ungodly alliance.

He had a bigger and better political structure that was fast expanding than the CPC gang. He didn't need them rather they needed him to achieve their clandestine objectives. Now, just take a look at our once great country.

Talk about cattles have taken a national dimension than talk about Nigerians wellbeing. Nigerians be are being slaughtered at every turn v Boko and fulani Herdsmen yet nobody is being arrested instead the previously arrested ones are being freed.

Just take a deep look yourself is it normal. Have we ever had it this bad, ask yourself what's going on in our nation.
Proverbs 29:2 says When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.

gurunlocker:
You dey show me pictures of dullarpho wearing Igbo regalia during campaign. Let me ask you how many time he has wear that since he gain power?

opribo:
Tinubu should get wiser, he should realise that this sudden Buha romancing worth him is not unconnected with him getting Yoruba votes again in 2019.

It is unthinkable that after all the energy he exerted in 2015 to smuggle these desperados into power they will just relegate him to the background only to suddenly start looking for him when 2019 is rearing it's head.

If I were him I will pay my card on the table to be met immediately or he leaves them while he still has his relevance in the south west else they will rubbish him and reduce him to nothing if he continues this hobnobbing.

Babachir how far

GreatMahmud:
Tinubu's political weight is fast declining..Its very obvious

CROWNWEALTH019:
See you

Better cry for TINUBU

gurunlocker:
See as BAT gentle, from first position to fifth position and still sending him on tough task errand in order to win his second term bid...

CROWNWEALTH019:
You call yourself party leader yet Ondo, Ogun, Ekiti and Oyo states no they under your control. Tinubu is a bloody local champion.


God bless Oyegun

Fashola even get mouth for APC pass Tinubu


Tinubu is dead politically and if he's not careful obanikoro would take Lagos away from him

ahavas:
An average Muslim prays five times a day. The question is how long is that prayer ? A prayer lasts five minutes and is basically composed of recitations.

Sirjamo:
Islam is not a sanctuary for the mentally challenged anyway, so stick to your Christianity, you ain't invited.

delivryboy:
Why can't most Christians control their emotions and hatred when it comes to Islam and Muslims? He only stated his opinion, why crucify him like he killed someone. This is double standard, one minute they say Christianity preaches love, another minute they spill bile and venom enough to blind the cobra itself.

Sikariyelwa:
THE CHRISTENDOM ARE CONFUSED AS TO GOD THE CREATOR. SOME BELIEVE JESUS IS GOD TURNED INTO HUMAN BEING AND COME TO SALVAGE THEM. SOME SAY NO HE IS SON OF GOD BUT THAT THEY ARE EQUAL. THEY ARE FOLLOWING WHAT PAUL, MARK, LUKE, JOHN, MATHEW ETC. THESE PEOPLE NEVER SAW JESUS IN THEIR LIKE TIME BUT PER SMARTNESS THEY COMPILE FICTIONS AND THOUGHTS. JEWIS REFUSED CHRISTIANITY TILL NOW

If you like, twist it in a way it can comfortably sit in your brain but the message is very clear.

The message is that hijab doesn't stop a lady from doing her job efficiently contrary to what the apostles of nudity and voices of satan are trying hard inculcate in the society.

Wow! Message Detector, tell me more.
