A witch who brings home bacon to her family is better than a church mother who sulks her children, and grandchildren, dry in order to line the pockets of her gods of men, men whose only care in this is to build their kingdoms here on earth. undecided

Stop thinking you can reasonably use the same silly stories fed to you by your mogs to reason the world. undecided

It obvious you have never experienced a witch. No witch be it mother, father or grannies ever brings home bacon, but rather use your glory for their own favour. Dem not send say you be their child. Then go use you dey shine for their coven and kingdom

I have met witches, been friends with many who were at some point labeled or accused of being witches by others, and not once have I ever experienced any of the many tall tales told by your pastors and mogs in your churches. As a matter of fact, I have come to realize that many of your pastors and mogs, including many of those testimony givers you lot host, are pathological liars who can't help themselves but lie.

I was arguing with my mum this morning coz I made her realize that prayer doesn't bring wealth and it's the government that brought the idea... (they print out money from thin air)

In one word, I was partially or temporarily disowned as of the time of writing this report

If una fit adopt me for two weeks please dm 😭

Sounds funny but I can imagine your situation. You need to calm down and find a way of convincing her that "faith without works is dead". That's a Bible quote. A lot is also said about diligence, wisdom, knowledge and the good use of talents and gifts. The problem is that most people are so gullible. They listen to the clerics without making efforts to read the word of God on their own.

Don't fight her. Teach her to understand what is required of her as a Christian based on scripture and not the manipulations of pastorpreneurs. She won't disown you. A mother's love is infinite and the ultimate.

Religion has turned my mother into a shadow of herself.
Ever since our teenage years my mother was not the churchy type. We are raised Catholics
Back then she was active and bubbling.

all of a sudden my mother left Catholic faith and started messing around with different churches.
This has cause countless rift between us, my dad and elder sister have done everything possible but my mum is too brainwashed by these Pentecostal pastors.

How can someone be attending Christ embassy and winners chapel?? I Heard she wants to join mountain of fire but changed her mind.
Everytime church, church, church
Yet she never gain anything from it
I have been sending her money for her for upkeep since November last year only to come back home February this year and discovered she donates everything to different churches


I feel she might have a mental disorder and I don't know how to save her.
She literally spends all the money in church donation tithe and all those craps. And those pastors always calling her to come for one program or the other. I don't know what to do

Does she have a particular problem that she's trying to resolve? Find out and encourage her with any similar story from the Bible to prove that she can fight her battle on her own. Hopefully, she'll go back to her regular Church. God listens to and answers anyone who calls upon him in spirit and in truth. His response may not be exactly what we want but it will be what is best for the time and season.

God says He only answers those who are Holy and Righteous and His response, as Jesus Christ made clear is always in the affirmative. So why deviate from that which is of scripture? undecided

That's a nonsense claim. The entire country is crippled by religion not because of women but because the men who supposedly rule in the country are themselves enslaved by it. undecided

I think any black man who subscribes to the religion of the white man is a complete idiot and that includes the Arabic religion as well

Partially. It's not bad to learn a thing or two about world views and beliefs of other cultures and races. It's not always entirely a bad thing. Most cultures have learnt from journeys and invasions into other lands and tribes and have borrowed doctrines and ways of life.

But the moment you superimpose it upon your own original culture and completely suppress your own roots like what is happening in Ilorin or the Hausalands, or even the South where xtians demonise their own traditions, then that becomes absolute lunacy!

I am sorry to say this o but your mum is suffering from the early stage of schizophrenia.

I think I agree. There seems to be some connection between schiz and a frenzied spiritual psycho.

That is when they'll begin to say they saw Jesus.

For the muslims, that is when you'll hear Mohammed sat by their side 2 nights ago or they saw an allahu akbar painting in the sky.

They'll say they had "out-of-body" experience and they died for 10 seconds and walked away from the earth and saw everyone staring and they walked back into their body.

Depth of what sacrificial giving? So all that Jesus Christ said of God desiring obedience over sacrifice obviously went over your head? undecided

By the way, God said He does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous; your prayers, praises, offerings/vows/tithes/seed sowing, good works, etc., are tainted by your sins and are filthy abominations to God Meaning that if you are not first righteous, all your prayers, your offerings, your petitions, your praises, etc., never reach God. What this means is that no amount of praying, fasting, seed sowing, church-going, praising, vows, tithes, or offerings, can get anyone close to the power of God. undecided

You claim that what you call sacrificial givings do something in his life. And I wonder by what power except the one that drains his resources in order to line the pockets of her gods of men? undecided

You just described my mom too. cheesy
No she is not mad. She is just desperate for the protection and success of her family especially you her children.

My mom did that for about a decade but today, thank God it has reduced.

Please do not insult her, simply let her know that she has to focus on Jesus in a good church.

You see this life, if you will not believe the Truth for free, you will buy the lie with pain.
She is simply paying for not being a born-again mother from the start.

Please let her know that all she needs is to be born again and focus on Jesus Christ. She needs to receive the Holy Spirit and start learning of Christ like a new believer.

She thinks it is pastors that will answer her prayers where as it is God, her Father Himself that answers prayers and He simply wants her to focus on Him and build a relationship.
God Himself will take care of her battles.

You and your siblings also need to be born again. You have no idea of the battles you inherited simply by being born. Also the battles you acquire through marriage. You need Jesus Christ, not only to protect you but to Lead you through Life.
