You goofed.the proliferation of churches in Lagos indicate one thing,where evils abound,that's where grace abound much. Moreover, whether industries or businesses or not,what can man give in exchange for his soul?
With this logic, are you saying that there are more churches in evil infested areas of Nigeria than good areas?

Why are they many churches in Lagos?

1.Many pastors don't want to suffer financially under another ministry, so they prefer to open theirs.

2. Many so called pastors call themselves into ministry mainly for financial gains.

3. Many people now see the supernatural as the major means to solve their nutty problems hence they financially support many pastors both good and bad.

4. Fulfilment of end time prophesies, the gospel will be fully preached globally to everyone.
so the pastors who are doing the point 1 and 2 are the ones actually fulfilling the prophesy of preaching the gospel?

This is the fulfilment of the scripture in Matthew 24:14 KJV
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
What will the kingdom that will be preached about accomplish?

[theres 5 in my street already.
The gospel must be spread abroad
If the five are preaching the same gospel, why don't they just agree to plant just one church in that your street while the remaining four go to other streets?

No 2 aren't preaching the genuine gospel.

Lol...so it is those that don't want to suffer financially under another person's ministry and setting up their own ministry to enjoy financially are the ones that are preaching the genuine gospel?

Lol....

Let me tell me a true account.

I was once employed with other pastors in a ministry.

The day some of the pastors nearly fought with the ministry's administrative staff over delayed salary, I knew that day that many pastors don't want to suffer in ministry.

Who wants to suffer? Finances play a critical role in the gospel, that's why many pastors seek to start their own. It doesn't mean that they aren't called.

So pastors are to be paid by the church to declare the gospel? If they are not paid, they should leave the church and set up their own church to be paid to preach the gospel?
