I doubt if the man has the Holy Spirit.

✓ And maybe they should close up the Vatican too and use the resources channeled into it to help the poor and less privileged.
The Vatican is as we speak still reacher than whole countries out there. 🤔

You're not wise! A country where one person would donate 100M to church, if such money is used to stablish business how many people did you think would be needed to for employment?
By implementation the job of 20 persons has been puckered by one person, can we move forward this way?
For example: such money is used to established block industry, people would supply sand, cement, water, diesel, mould block, supply block, drive truck, just imagine how many people that are needed here.
I fail to see your point! 🤔

Hmmmmm2024:
where and when is it the duty of a priests to close churches in Nigeria ?
Look at this one abeg! So, it isn't his duty to close shop but his duty to ignore the fact that the very organization he is part and parcel of is a huge part of the problem he speaks of? 🤔

confused priest, can’t you see that churches are employer of labor also , with schools, universities and factories and so many more, is church not owners of MFM football team on NPL , because of selfishness the priest said the nonsense that backfire on him, and your so called industries what do they spend their profits on other than embezzlement and fraudulent advert and endorsements of musicians / celebrities who lavish the money in night clubs
By this pronouncement of yours, basically, Nigeria with the highest number of churches per square kilometer should be one of the best countries in terms of employment, abi? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Lols I can relate because billboard/outdoor is my job.
I can boldly tell you that out of 10 billboards display in Ibadan, 7 are crusade or revival ads grin
Especially this festive period so much church gig for us practitioners
It's practically everywhere now. It has become so nauseating that two different churches advertising on each opposing side of a single billboard.

So, what is stopping this priest from closing up shop so there is will be at least one less religious billboard in that country? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Anything to attack church is welcomed by you.
Come, lemme do deliverance for you.

➜The UK and the US were founded on Christian principles. You can't change that.
➜The rise of Europe cannot be divorced from the invention of the printing press by Gutenberg, his first printed book notably being The Bible.
➜With all your claims of knowledge of the Church, you are blissfully unaware of the impact of Martin Luther's "Justification By Faith", which formed the bedrock of morals, ethics, legal systems, and the Constitutions of most of continental Europe. This led to the Reformation which later evolved into the First Industrial Revolution.
➜That Christianity preached in Africa is mostly warped by selfish motives, in no way Invalidates the impact
➜Although you give the impression that you are a Christian by quoting Scriptures copiously, your constant attacks against the Church of Christ gives you away.
➜You have NEVER ignored any bad news that involves the Church. Indeed here you are: first to comment.
Advancement and industrialization in both nations did not occur until the people started venturing beyond those religious foundations you keep harping on to seek a more inclusive agenda and society. undecided

2. The Bible may have been the first, but it was not the only book. undecided

3. Marthin Lurther's ideas expressed in his writings, "Justification By Faith," may have led to the Reformation, but they also revealed Martin Luther to be merely a political Lord who sought nothing but a piece of the power that formerly belonged to the Catholic church for himself. For example, Martin Luther is fingered in the deaths of others who attempted the very same that he did, was he not? So, suggesting this connection between Martin Luther and the Constitutions of Western Nations is a bit... off. undecided

By the way, Martin Luther's views are credited with the rise of antisemitism and eventually Nazi Party in Germany. FYI!

4. Everything and ideas out there, even weed smoking, can be suggested to make some sort of impact. That in no way justifies particularly where numerous ills are equally linked. Religion as a whole, Christianity included has wrecked a lot of havoc, particularly in places like Africa where the extremes of it are revealed. Even out west, with the extremes that exist today in the political arena, it is clear that religion should really be removed from the public space if people and civilization are expected to continue thriving. undecided

5. You only hold that nonsensical impression because it appeals to the particular delusion which you continue to hold to. There is nothing "Christian" about the Israelite Scripture or the quoting of it. undecided

6. Your churches were founded by those who Jesus Christ proclaimed could not handle that which is Holy — the non-Israelites aka dogs. This means that they have absolutely nothing to do with the God of Israel and Jesus Christ of Israel. Of course, your churches disregard this fact, and I see it as my place to call out their lie every chance I get. undecided

USA literally has more churches than industries. It is a religious country founded on religious principles!

Anyone who is smart and isn't seeker sensitive would know that religion and industrial development aren't antithetical. You think they are?

It would have been good if after each revival they remain where they are. The real truth is that after each revival, they keep getting worse. The more revival, pilgrimage, fasting and prayer, deliverance, we perform, the poorer, more corrupt, wicked, greedy, heartless, insecure we become. Starting from the late 70s and early 80s when all this pentecostal rubbish started, the country has gone from bad to worse.
Funny.... but bitter truth grin

The United States has many more businesses than churches:
Churches
There are roughly 356,000 religious congregations in the United States, which is about one congregation for every 1,000 Americans. The South has the most churches per capita, with 15.4 churches per 10,000 residents.
Businesses
The United States has approximately 33.2 million businesses, including small shops and large corporations. In 2023, the total revenue for all U.S. businesses was around $27–28 trillion.

Why don't you learn some manners and engage respectfully without being such an idiot!

Usually, I wouldn't engage this low-level elenchus. And I've always known you to be quite a combative dunce who is addicted to blind arguments.

Well, USA has plus or minus around 20,000 industries (large corporations). You can check your Google search.

And if you must include small business, Nigeria has more than 3,000,000 business too (inclusive of small shops and large corporations as at 2019). While we have just around 16,000 churches and around 4,500 mosques. So, I guess we too have way less religious houses than industries in your book.
Maybe you should soft pedal on your garulous inclination to argue and get a life!

Economics is everything.

Your personal economic, country's economic, political economy, environmental economy etc.

If none of the above is worked on for a sustained period of time, then the subject will be poor, regardless of how many times in an hour they fast and pray.

But again, religion preaches contentment, making followers not too focus to be wealthy, and desire goodlife in the afterlife, so?

Poverty and brokeness in a religious society is not a bug, its a feature.
My boss sorry for bothering you, but please can you give me a list of European countries that offer very cheap education?
