The Dawn Of A New God by superboyspecial: 12:53pm On Mar 02, 2018
Oftentimes, I have wondered why some things just don't fall in place,before the white men came to our land,we had our own gods,gods who our forefathers worshipped and in those days,it is noted that those gods were functional;They brought goodluck and calamities likewise and those who served them knew them and had faith in them therefore, whenever calamity struck,the gods were asked why and through the oracle,the reason why and the way out will be offered,acting in accordance usually reversed the effects but then,when the white men came,they brought a new God who gradually won over the hearts of our fathers and then,the other gods faded away.with faith in a new God,they now have to depend on him for virtually everything just as they had done before. He was a healing God,delivers people from evil spirits haunting them but acted exclusively to those who believed in it
This new God had a counterpart,another God introduced by the Arabs through the Sahara and gradually,they took over our forefathers gods but then,these gods had a similar trait,they only worked for those who believed in them,had faith in them.I have always wondered why the charms of the native doctors have no effect on white men but works exclusively on black men-men who feared their effects...is it because the black man had a history with traditional gods and the white men don't?
People believe in different religions and it works for them,a Christian would run to you to tell you that Jesus saves,that's because he believes and nothing can change him from that mindset but he also forgets to tell you what Jesus saves you from,from hell?,yes,from Satan and his cohorts?,yes,but a Jew will disagree with him,why?,because his Torah stopped at Malachi,a Muslim has a different mentality about the way to heaven but still,their religions work for them.Jesus saves from the concept he brought and Christians believe and it works for them,A Muslim sees his religion as a peaceful one but an average Christian would disagree with him.A native doctor serves his own God but his God is regarded as an evil spirit
Therefore, to each of these people, they all serve living Gods but to the other,they are false gods,on this note,I would like to say that faith is a major God as it affects every other God,without faith,every other God ceases to exist...
in my next post,I'll debate with Christians on the truths they need to know inorder to be set free...
