erniok: Funny. Because of excitement? Maybe I am, and I believe it's the Lord's doing. One way or another you confirmed what I said. You know Joseph's dream in Genesis 37. Also you don't tell me you don't know it's fulfilment in Gen 43:26. Meanwhile I am still waiting for answer to my question. |

In Christianity the only approved titles are "Christ" and "Apostles" both meant to serve the others like messengers no prominence. Matthew 20:25, 28 But in the world titles are for prominence and politics that's why Jesus forbids it even though he is the Christ he doesn't want to be addressed with that title {Matthew 16:20} because the Jews believe the Christ should be their political leader {John 6:15} so among his own disciples it's forbidden for anyone to be a chief among the nations according to him they must all be brothers {Matthew 23:8-10} in fact that's why Jesus turned down a title chief who really want to be one of his disciples Jesus ordered him to sell away all those prominence and become an ordinary man with no titles in the society! Luke 18:18-23 ![]() |

Mpanyi: I guessed as much. Your understanding of the scriptures and its times are very shallow. Go back and read the scriptures. Joseph never used the word worship neither was it implied. In fact, his brothers used the word reign. By implying bowing means worship, it means papa Abraham in Gen.23 was worshiping the people he bought Sarah's burial site from. FYI, it's not the Lord's work you are doing. No. On the contrary it's ignorance on rampage. |

TemplarLandry: Anything other this is pure hypocrisy and pretence. You can't stay away from your culture and live in total oblivion in the name of religion, once they won't trouble your children and people when you die, when idolatry is not involved? Nothing is bad in it. |

Mpanyi: You are the one with no knowledge but wants to have an opinion. You said bowing down which is a sign of honour is same as worship. If there's anyone irredeemable, you are. |

I know a woman whose father died and she was crying bitterly, not because he died but because he was a title holder and the rituals that must be performed before he is buried were just outrageous |

hahn: Don’t mind the brainwashed Moro.ns. What is more idolatrous than wearing a cross with the bloodied sacrificed victim on it, and walking around with it, and even praying to it? No African religion practices such barbaric idolatry. And then in their church they practice ritual cannibalism by ‘drinking his blood’ and ‘eating his body’. These are all pagan, barbaric European cultural practices. But these mentally colonised Nigerians think it’s all very ‘holy’. Because it is ‘white people’ doing it. They are a disgrace. 1 Like 1 Share |

Dancebreaker: Honestly bro. Indian man will worship his cows till tomorrow. If you don’t like it, it’s your business. Chinese man will worship his dragon and crocodile till tomorrow. If you don’t like it, go back to London. Japanese will practice his Shintoism till next millennium. If you don’t like it, go back to America or UK. Africans will pray to God traditionally, using connecting deities, and Africans are told it is ‘heathen’ and they should accept and follow the European INVENTION called ‘Christ’. And Africans obey. DISGUSTING. Spit! |

AntiChristian: wrong quotation of what the Bible ...the word of GOD said.. nobody gave JESUS CHRIST the title of King of Jews it was the prophesy before JESUS CHRIST was birth And the pharises who accused him before Pilate said HE JESUS CALLED HIMSELF KING OF THE JEWS and Pontius Pilate only asked Him JESUS....is it true you gave yourself the title of king of Jews? and JESUS anwered ....thou saith so.....QED! |

Everything is wrong for a Christian to take traditional title. Christianity and tradition are two different religion . You want to be a xtain be xtain , or if you want to go tradion, so be it |

Napata77: Like the silliness is outstanding. Even when their lord and queen passed away last year, they saw online the Brits who honoured their long-standing customs in the rite proceedings. And they are here asking whether chieftaincy bla bla or not. That the topic can even be raised is of its own an outrageous disaster of mental wear and tear. |
