MiddleDimension:You are like your god, ".. the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night.." You boldly accuse me of going to consort with your god, but The Triune God in heaven that I serve will bear witness to me that I Bwilliam in all my life on this earth have never stepped foot in any shrine or knowingly worshipped another god, in hopes of getting their sorrow filled "help". I have no shame in my God nor in the way I worship Him. I've never given a blood sacrifice of any animal or human being at the altar of my God, in exchange for help. Rather My Father in heaven sent his only begotten Son - The Lord Jesus Christ, who is the perfect expression of His love for mankind, to be an atoning sacrifice and a redemption for me and my generations, that by His blood we are called forth from death caused by our sinful nature, into new life and fellowship. If you're boasting that some "Christians" are coming to your shrine in secret, let me tell you that you should not boast in that because not everybody that call themselves "Christian" are True Christian. If armed thieves accosts a lost man who doesn't know that he's a prince who can call on his Father who is able to do all things, the thieves will easily overpower him. That does mean that the Father is powerless, it means that the Man doesn't know who he is and the authority he can access. You are right about one thing though, your gods are metal and wood, handmade in a basement shop: Carved mouths that can’t talk, painted eyes that can’t see, Tin ears that can’t hear, molded noses that can’t smell, Hands that can’t grasp, feet that can’t walk or run, throats that never utter a sound, and the demons that inhabit them know that they have a small window to deceive people like you before they are banished from this earth. The shocking revelation I give you is that the True God is still interested in you, loves you is calling you to commune with Him. Freewill - The power to Choose, is one of the gift given to Mankind. If you can make that difficult decision and choose to abandon all your false gods and the "powers" and "wealth" that they gave you in exchange of your soul and the souls of your unborn generations to come, you will see that the True God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. |

Sleekfingers:Wasted sperm, is it only Catholic that makes up what is called Christianity? Or Christianity means a group of people or names of Churches? All you need is google to help you out on what Christianity is all about and ask if it is occultist or not before displaying your maadness and stupidity here for us! Bastardd, son of a bitch! |

InvertedHammer:I think you are getting me completely wrong. That history of the early Christian crusaders and knights of the church who do the bidding of the Pope, etc, etc , can't be erased but that is not the way of the Christian God. It's also same like when some c purported Pastors or so called Christians do evil things and say it was God who told them. I'm sure you have heard some funny stories of such even in Nigeria... Christianity is an individual experience with the One true God through Jesus Christ the only Light and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, the spirit of Truth. Anyone who has truly experienced, maintained and given self completely to the true Christian God will find it difficult to do violence. |

Elliotwaveforec:Crap. Your ancestors practiced traditional religeon for 100s of years b4 the European man came, yet they could not discover the black gold( crude oil) beneath their feet. It took the whites religeon to build schools for your ancestors, so they can understand how the black gold can be beneficial to them. Keep Fooling yourself. |

Omoawoke:The more you try to sound intelligent, the more you expose your naivety. How do you explain the fact that the Bible accurately predicts or gave clear instructions, that Science could not know until in the last 400years? Can that be a myth? |

Adakintroy:Merry rants again with no substance. Again let me help your rusty brain. In the past few decades, Islam and christianity came to Africa and demonised the African Traditional Religion (ATR). Lies, deception and empty promises were sold to people. However, after many years, Africans realised that these Religion are not only fallacious but fake. Because of normative expectations, many African, claiming to be Muslims and Christians still practice ATR. Most of your pastors prophelieing to you on daily basis also practice ATR underground. They only see the foreign religion as a business model to steal from the gullible. For example, few months ago, a scandal about how a CSO of Olukoya of MFM has been consulting a native shrine in Ogbomoso to support its Church business broke out on the Internet. Beyond this, people are getting tired of living the double standard life of practising ATR underground while masquerading as Christians and Muslims and I can tell you that the past five years has been witnessing a huge number of people, especially highly educated youths publicly renouncing Islam and christianity and joining ATR. Intelligent youths across Africa are now questioning the validity of Islam and christianity and the benefits to Africa. Unfortunately, the promoters of these religion cannot defend them when they are confronted with questions from their own books. Consequently, youths are moving enmass to the ATR. Go to toktok and see how yoruba youths are renouncing Islam daily. Infact, all the alfas in Yorubaland are now crying everywhere as per how the modern and youthful ATR practitioners are converting their followers to ATR. In the Eastern part of Nigeria, a heavy and growing crusade against christianity and promotion of ATR is going on and it's gathering serious momentum to the extent that Abel Damina has to preach about it. Aren't you aware that virtually all the governments in the South West now have public holiday for ATR which is unprecedented? What does this tell you. I tell you free of charge, should this trend and momentum continue, Islam and christianity will become minority in Africa in 20 years. You are asking me if the converted churches in the UK are turned to shrine. That shows how myopic you are.i will give you a responsibility to do research on that to at least engage your brain for once. |

blueAgent:And your story book explains the origins of life and death. You are irredeemably pathetic. Your Bible is a book of fiction, not different from Harry Potter's book. |

God1000:Noted.. But must not forget to always give credit to Christianity for your western educational platform... what Orisa couldn't do. |

If like you carry calabash for head and walk round town na ur business. But no say I no preach to you that Christ is the way the truth and life. Before you die open yansh accept him.

Adakintroy:Brainwashed mugu. Keep dashing your hard earned money to a jobless and lazy man behind the pulpit in the hope of one Imaginary heaven somewhere. It's only a bustard that use the left hand to describe his father's house. Your great grand father worshiped idols. You must be silky to call them stupid and unintelligent. Your children will surely call the same. Your white Jesus is a fictional character introduced to colonise the mind of the gullible like you. For your information, your fallacious religion thrive on only three factors; Fear, guilt and hope. Take these three factors from your religion, it becomes useless. If you don't accept a fictional Jesus, you will go to hell- Fear. The reason you are sick is because you didn't pay your tithe last month- guilt.. I heard that one of your god of men has now removed subsidy from tithe. You are now to pay 40%. Mumu factorial When you die, you will make heaven-hope. All these are manipulative tools of control that have expiry date. It's no longer potent in the current dispensation |

archangel1:The western education that was controlled to teach you only things that will make you useful to work 9-5 and grow old and die. Since you learnt the western education, what have you manufactured or ever invented?? Go and look at ancient civilizations of Africans and Africans were inventors. Did the white teach you how to make iron, bronze and build empires? You black africans stoped inventing since you were colonized. You can learn from others without getting your identity lost. Look at Japan today and China, they are one of the most advanced and industrialized countries in the world. Your Toyota and Samsung phone and other beautiful cars come from Korea, Japan and China. Tell me how many of them practice Christianity and Islam ? Slavery is a terrible thing, you blacks even worship your slave masters and even thank them for enslaving you |

blueAgent:Mugu, your Bible is a story book with no practical usefulness especially in the 21st century. That's why the fraudster promoting the jaundiced brand keep faking and arranging miracles to hoodwink and deceive the gullible like you. No this and no peace. Without the three concept of fear, guilt and hope, your religion cannot sell. Again, know this and know peace. |

buragidi:I don't expect you to comprehend something higher than your capacity. Its obvious the Bible is too complex 4 you to comprehend. |
