New madness unlocked.
Nah dem kuku create God in the first place, I mean their ancestors, now these woke generations are confused about his gender.

This is why i no dey take religion serious. Cos if I was a Chinese, I'd never meet Jesus or the Arab man(S.A W) no disrespect.

Religion is a fallacy, it's a sham.

Period.

STILL WHAT BAFFLES ME IS, Y SOME AFRICANS STILL ATTEND THIS CHURCH (DON'T EVEN KNOW IF IT'S PROPER TO CALL IT A CHURCH).

God created Man in His image, meaning that God is a Masculine (He), and going by the book of Genesis He created the woman (Even) as the last creature and not in His image but a suitable helper. The Church of Christ shall prevail

They are right though.

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

God should be THEY. God doesn't have a gender.

Yes actually religion degrades women but women love it you know
Because they’re powerless and men rule their mental system
Religion makes women less then men

Even if I’m atheist it’s true because nature agrees to this

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.

No be dem bring d bible wey u extract d qoutes from

Instead of striving for a consecrated holy life that'll enable them see God, their minds are rather fixated on something beyond their comprehension. Weird wasteful generation forming woke and bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

2 Peter 2:1 (KJV) But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

Dear Religious Extremists:

This right here clearly points to the fact that the biblical and religious theories which you've held sacred, bullied and killed other humans for, were actually put together by men and can be twisted, altered and redefined whenever it suits the same men.

So those homosexual pastors, now believe that Jesus Christ is wrong when he said my Father in heaven.

Doesn't that ring a bell that the Father is a He being and Spirit.

This demon called satan had already instituted his agents in many churches and topest positions in govt's.

Same reason we are dying to find just a single saint to represent us in govt. Do you think Nigeria politicians are wicked? NO they are not. They are doing the biddings of their master.
Even if they want to be good, they can't. Else they pay for it.

So, let us ask God the father, for His choice of candidate.

You Africans are too Emotional People....

What Do You Know about Yahweh(Jews Name for God) ... You don't know more than those people that Marketed God to You .. The British

.... in Yoruba-Race God is Eledumare(Owner of Corpus of Universe) or Eledua(Owner of Corpus of Good-Characters) among Many ...

Don't Worry, Your Future Generations would refer to God as English Church Call Am if You are Stubborn enough not to Change ...... Your Forefathers Abhors the Same Jesus you were shouting today....

God is not Your Father ... God is God and God doesn't Have Gender ..... Neither a Man nor a Woman .... So God is a "IT" to Me not a "He or She"....

That's Doesn't Mean I'm Disrespectful to God ...But Acknowledging the Truest Nature of God as Non-Gender !

Making God a Gender is a Ridicule .... God Can surely Never-Ever Be Man cheesy
