I
have tried to hold my peace from saying anything about the Church
of Christ and their involvement in the politics of this nation but
after watching Stella Damascus's video on the child for bride on
going issue in the Senate, I think I should just say a few things.
Some
of my friends have lost Faith in the Nigerian Churches and when I ask
them why, they ask me, with all the churches in Nigeria, why are
things becoming worst; more crimes, more sufferings and less of any
thing good?
What
has the church, here I mean the leaders of the church being doing to
make the lives of their members better. It seem to me all the church
care about is how to attend the status of a Mega Church and improve
the lives of their leaders than see to the improvement of the lives of their
members. They are busy building structures instead
of building lives.
Ever
since the issue of the constitutional amendment with regard to
marriage aged limit came up, I am yet to hear one known minister
voice out an opinion against the proposed amendment. Why is this so?.
Is
it that, driving big cars and living in big houses has made some of
our ministers loss sense of all that is real? And instead of
protesting the evil, they are pretending all is well?
Today
a majority of our ministers would not laid down their lives for what
is right, they have become too comfortable with life on earth to care
about the life after. Many of them would not want Jesus to come now
or ever as long as their lives are comfortable. This men of God seem
to have forgotten the injunction of Jesus Christ in:
Matthew 16:25
25 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
If
pastor Martin Luther King Jr. did not lead protest matches in America
when the blacks were been subject to ridicule and abuse, do you think
the little freedom they enjoy now could have been achieved? He was
also willing to laid down his life for his convictions.
Even with a Black president, blacks in America still suffer injustice everyday.
I may not like the company Pastor Tunde bakare's keeps but I love the spirit he possesses. He is willing not only to fight but to laid down his life for his beliefs and conviction, sadly so many ignorant so-called men of God condemn him for doing something while they do nothing.
It's just a shame. Like Paul said, these minister's bellies has become their god. They have become like over-feed generals who don't want to go to war. They eat fat on the people's tithes and offerings yet don't care about what the people are going through. They ask members to go and borrow money to fulfill vows, when they know such acts will en slave them. They don't ask of their member's well being because they don't want to offer assistance. They care only for the rich ones. They have become; Cloud and wind without rain, enemies of the cross of Christ they claim to preach, their end is destruction, whose God is their belly, whose glory is their shame, they only mind early things and comfort. Christ returning will be a distraction and not a blessings to them, for the earth have become their permanent abode.
May
God deliver us from such men, masquerading themselves as angels of
light but deep down raging wolfs, feeding on the blood of their
members.
Everything
we see and touch is temporal, it will not last. They should remember what
Mordecai told Esther in:
Esther 4:13-14
13 Then Mordecai told them to reply to Esther, “Do not think to yourself that in the king's palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews. 14 For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”
Don't
think by holding your peace and being in good terms with the evil
leaders of our Nation, that their wicked laws and actions will not
affect you. You can never know. God doesn't work that way. Be warned.
Speak
up for the
people, and become a true
leader, Jesus did against
the
leader of His
time, the
Pharisees.
You can't
be different from your true Master. I am speaking out, when will you?
I
have just being told that CAN president, daddy Oritsejafor is to lead
a protest against senators over child marriage.
That's
why I will keep on loving him. He is not afraid to stand up for his
convictions. God bless you sir.
Well said, thumbs up
ReplyDeleteChurch is a scam or in otherwords money bank. The government and the churches are the same body, the government makes us suffer just to make what the church preaches a reality thereby making you believe and give your hard earned money and at the end of the day you still end up further impoverished while they get richer. All our government officials attends church somewhere and they are close friends to our church leader and dines with them, the question is why is it that they don't tell them to turn from their evil ways? Simple,its will be bad for bussiness. Its a setup! God bless u.
ReplyDeleteTell them ooo... May God deliver us all from the oppression and wickedness of this world.
