An2elect2:
You mean their conversion from one false religion to false teachers in Christendom who "privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction."?

And this the sorry consequence of putting this men on the pedestal:

"And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the truth shall be evil spoken of.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgement now for a long time slumbereth not."
2Peter 2:1-3.

What makes you believe Islam is false while Christianity is real

salykely:


Despite the fact that Johnson suleman's father Imoudu Sule was a Muslim Johnson was never a Muslim. I know them in and out.

the topic says ''pastors that were born as Muslims''.
If his dad was a Muslim, it follows that he was born a Muslim, expect his dad had him before converting into a Muslim.

converting because of money day will embezzle

Islam does not make money, but christianity does.

xreal:
Their parents must have showed them hell for converting.

If you're talking about Yorubas, I doubt it.

Ayatullah:
BORN MUSLIMS WITHOUT ISLAMIC KNOWLEDGE!
Those pastors were indeed born Muslims, but they were not guided by their parents to the path of Islam, just like Pastor Tunde Bakare whose mother took to a 'Babalawo' (fetish native doctor) while in the university.

It is therefore not enough to be born into a Muslim, home you need to be guided and as you grow up also search just as this American woman did:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9rB6LWt7eo

If they were not guided by their parents to the path of Islam, what about the grandson of the late Emir of Kano Paul Ado Bayero and the grandson of former Sultan of Sokoto Evangelist Mustapha Dasuki .

You can read the testimony of the grandson of the late Emir of Kano here: https://mypenmypaper./2012/02/08/testimony-how-the-grandson-of-emir-of-kano-paul-ado-bayero-converted-to-christianity/

They were forced to become Muslims through Islamic war conquest but not through conviction. The Imperialism you mentioned is a policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonization especially through the use of military force.

The spread of Christianity was majorly by conviction and that was why our colonial masters ( though Christians)did not force the religion on the Muslims.
What do you think would have happened if we were colonized by a Muslim country?

How do you force an individual to pray five times a day or fast for the month of Ramadan? Now imagine forcing a whole country to pry five times a day and fast a whole. You may need to attach a soldier to every single citizen 24/7 to ensure compliance!

ALISMILE:
D simple tin is make ur research!

do u know Egypt has been in existence before christianity.

PastorKun:
At the rate at which muslims are converting to christianity, there would be no more muslims left in Nigeria in the next 50 years.

The reality is that there are more idol worshipers in Nigeria today than both Christians and Muslims combined.

Most Christians are more materialistic than pegans and most Muslims too swear in the name of Allah in vain amongst other conducts that cannot be said to be the proper definition of both religions' moral standard.

The line of thought towards nation building in a country such as Nigeria shouldn't be about one religion being more populous than the others but rather on citizens loving one another and obeying the constituted authorities.

Shalek:
So many fools here think only killing is terror. So many of you here calling yourselves Christians aint like Jesus. Y'all are terrorists.

JESUS will so deny you on the final day; you aint nothing like him.

Just like Mohammed will so deny the f**king bloodsucking bastards calling themselves BokoHaram.



Let only the wise ones talk.

1 of the very very very sensible quote I have seen on this thread

tartar9:
freedom of religion was allowed.they were NEVER forced.go check history rather than assuming.

I am not assuming, history is available, facts are abound, facts cannot be distorted.
Islam is the only religion that is associated with force conversion or conversion against ones will, that does not mean that people did not convert to Islam without the use of force. What I said is that Islamic war conquest is the single major factor that lead to the spread of Islam.

you are highly on point,they studyd and researched about those gullibers and highly exploiting them. mumu wirshippers

Muslim conquest of North Africa


The Muslim conquest of North Africa west of Egypt began 647 CE, and was completed for the urban zones and all along the coast by 710. It happened through attack wars, and the Muslims established administrative units. The first stages were during the reign of 3rd Caliph Uthman, whereas firm control was secured during the Umayyad calipate.
The motivation for the conquest seem to have been quite normal. With the exception of Tunisia, the territories of North Africa were politically and military weak, while the Muslim army had great military training allowing easy advances, even if Berbers gave the Muslim Arab army strong resistance. Berber strongholds here were smaller and more in number and belonged to villages and local administrations and its elite could more easily relocate to another place when threatened. When the Muslims started to advance into the heartlands of North Africa, corresponding to modern Tunisia, they could play different small kings up against each other, thereby forming effective alliances. They allied with what appears to have been Kasila, the king of Djedar.
Contrary to what happened in Egypt and the Middle East, Islam here quickly replaced Christianity.
The first goal of the Muslims was to obtain tribute in slaves and recruits for the army from Cyrenaica.
The conquest of central Libya happened in the 640's, Tunisia between 670 and 698, Algeria the 680's and Morocco by 710.

Please note there is no Islamic state that was not conquered by Islamic war. It spread majorly through conquest.

@op you want to count individual converts from Islam to Christianity? Ok lets count former Christian countries: Turkey, Egypt , Syria, Palestine.....

sorry, they r never Christian countries, jst that some Christians moved onto those countries n later moved out.

BISHOP DAVID OYEDEPO (Founder of Living Faith Christian Church International(Winners’ Chapel)

It's a pity,they all sold their hereafter for this transient world.May Allah guide them and the rest misguided ones back to Islam, the only way to paradise.Ameen

Takara:


if they were converted by force how do you explain the fact that about 10 percent of egyptians are still christians, there are still christians in Syria, lebanon etc, they forgot to Force those ones?

You are talking as if the forceful conversion was last year or yesterday. This was centuries ago. After those years, Christian s that relinquished their territories to these jihadists and escaped to exil started coming back. The remnant christians in those places that were able to survive the jihad started building their lives over again. That's y you still have their descendants in those countries. Besides, more christians have been made in recent years in those places through thewowork of missionaries in the early 20th century

It's you that will have to go check history properly. Mention to me a country in the world where introduction of islam was not by jihad war. Even in our own Nigeria here uthman fodio introduced islam for the first time in nigeria through jihad war. No country in the world witnessed peaceful introduction of islam. Many people for the fear of death convert to uslam. Those that could not convert ran to exile. So check history very well.

PastorKun:
At the rate at which muslims are converting to christianity, there would be no more muslims left in Nigeria in the next 50 years.

THOSE DAT WERE BORN MUSLIM AND CONVERTED TO XTIAN DID SO BCUS OF MONEY MAKING IN CHURCHES NEVERTHELESS THEY VE ACHIEVED THEM AIM BUT I FEAR FOR THER ENTERNITY.

...it's not about how one starts, but about how one finishes! May God bless all those who Love The Lord Jesus Christ in truth.

PastorKun:

The muslims all over the world are aware of this. That is why their religion is do or die. If you still don't understand, look at the "evangelism" method muslim brotherhood, ISIS, Boko haram, etc., are engaged in. Here in Nigerian, look how Christian converts who dump islam are persecuted. some of them are killed to serve as deterrent to others. But when you see the light, you cannot continue in darkness. Christ is the light of the world. Halellujah!

The fact that a country was conquered by muslims does not mean that the people were forced at gunpoint to become muslims, otherwise you wont find a single coptic christian iin egypt today.

using your analogy do you realise that christianity came to Nigeria after the british conquered the country. does that indicate that your grand parents were forced to become christians!

VANHELLSING:


I pity your pathetic soul, from light to darkness? Your are a GONNER

Am I pity your miserable soul too for using your brain upside down. You enjoyed the list of converts to Christianity from Islam, you have a self induced belief that is not possible for somebody to convert from Christianity to Islam. Somebody now used himself as an example of a convert, from Christianity to Islam and you started insulting him for his action.
At times, I wonder how gullible some people are. You people claimed that people only convert to Islam through force/Jihad because Islam is force while Christianity is "love". But reality on ground proved otherwise, Islamic is not a religion that fancy publicity about converts, even, converts are requested immediately after their conversion to change their names, that is why you won't know. People are leaving Islam because Islam is a blunt religion, it says things directly from our Creator even if we are not ok with it. Those Pastors are super rich today purely as a result tithe, they are milking their gullible followers. Have you ever heard of billionaire Imam, because they must have their legit source of income, because Islam makes to understand that we will give account of everything, you will give account of every kobo you have. So, if you want to use religion as a business, Islam is not for you.
you can only become rich in Islam through a legitimate source of income, every other illegal sources, there is a severe punishment waiting for you on the judgement day.
