Mr sheikh or whatever you call yourself, so you have forgotten so soon the adage "as poor as a church rat"? Now that wealth has come to the church of the Living God, you and your allies re crying foul? You haven't seen anything yet! Generations of the Army of thy Lord that will take Nigeria to its rightful place in destiny is rising soon from the church of the Living God. Instead of you to see how you get yourselves together to rescue the Almajiris turned terrorists you are using to destroy this Nation in collaboration with your president, you are here glamouring for tax from churches. ![]() This one is looking for how to be recognized by your Chief almajiri of a president I guess, quote me! 2 Likes |

kin8744: Stand up for what? Stand up to defend super rich pastors lording it over the super poor worshippers perpetually? That FRC law was the only good thing Jonathan Administration did for poor Nigerians. The way I read it is very simple. The Church or The Mosque have the final say in this - it either you are a non profit org (non tax paying) or you are profit making (tax paying) org. Either way, there are respective laws governing the set-up. There is nothing political in this. The law is available in one form or the other in every modern countries (UK, US, Germany, France, Australia etc). I totally support the Law to be reviewed so Government does interfere in the Spiritual side of these org. Summarily speaking as a Christian and a member of RCCG based in the US, I totally support the Sheiks input and I totally support what has been done in RCCG. Baba Adeboye will remain our Spiritual Leader till that time it pleases God to call him to His bosom, let other people run the Administration of the Church 1 Like |

bundle33:If u said Muslim is anti humane what would say about Christianity, well many of u don't know history. U see, WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND... If u think some Muslims are trying to convert xtians by force to Islam, it was what xtians had done before too so u people should think twice before say anything about Islam though, I don't like what is happening in the north because it's against Islamic teach but truth must be told. CONVERT TO CHRISTIANITY OR DIE John Stone & Hugh Fogelman Millions of African−Americans are Christians today because their ancestors were converted against their will to the religion of the slave-master. Hundreds of thousands of American−Indians are Christians today because the Christian missionaries converted their ancestors against their will. In Europe, it was the same thing. When Rome controlled most of the world, the Roman Emperor, Constantine, in 325 CE forced Christianity onto his subjects. The people of Lithuania did not become Christians because they read the gospels and decided to accept their teachings. On the contrary, the people of Lithuania were forced into Christianity against their will, as a result of relentless military force. From The Crusades, by Bernard Hamilton:1 “In 1309 the Teutonic Order moved its headquarters to Marienburg in Prussia. It had a papal license to wage perpetual war against the pagans and used this to launch annual crusades against Lithuania. These expeditions were very popular the nobility of northern Europe: campaigns were held twice a year, in the summer and in the winter when the order laid on special Christmas festivities for visiting crusaders.” “The excuse for men who enjoyed fighting and to lay waste large parts of Lithuania in the name of Christ was removed in 1386 when the King of Lithuania, Ladislas Jagiello, married Queen Jadwiga of Poland and received Catholic baptism. The two kingdoms were united under Christian rulers and the Teutonic Knights no longer had any justification for crusading against pagans there.” Lithuania was not the first country that fell victim to a campaign of lethal military force, for the purpose of forced conversion to Christianity. Three entire European nationalities became victims of genocide because they refused to become Christians: “...the Vandals, Ostogoths, and Heruli. The last three were destroyed by the Pope of Rome because they refused to become ‘Christian.’ The armies of Emperor Justinian, in cooperation with the Pope, thrust the Ostrogoths out of the city of Rome. They have become extinct.” 2 Jews had to endure the sword too. Millions of Jews from the fourth century CE until the 20 th Century were forced to “kiss the sword” of Christ, or be put to death by that sword. Therefore, many, many Jews died at the hands of Christians in the name of Jesus. Fortunately, many Jews managed to survive. They survived by lying―they converted, but secretly remained Jews. The Christian Church finally realized what was happening and in 1492, the Spanish Inquisition tried to purge the country of these “Secret” Jews, called Marranos. Christianity should not take any pride for their large numbers of subjects. Almost all Christian ancestors, Catholics and Protestants really had no choice in the matter. They were forced to accept Jesus as their god ― Invisible Friend in the Sky . Christianity was a forced religion. Today it is being forced in another manner, through an army of missionaries beating on your door and brainwashing your children in school classrooms, extracurricular activities and intramural sports. “I am now convinced that children should not be subjected to the frightfulness of the Christian religion. ... If the concept of a father who plots to have his own son put to death is presented to children as beautiful and as worthy of society's admiration, what types of human behavior can be presented to them as reprehensible?” —Ruth Hurmence Green (1915-1981) NOTES: 1.

asuustrike2009: Of course, Rome taxed both businesses and individuals. It doesn't even make sense to ask whether it was individuals or organizations that got taxed, because all that was required was their tax money. Besides, what Jesus was saying there on the broader sense wasn't just about taxes, but he was saying "obey the government" while practicing your religion. |

The point that drew my attention is when the man mention Jesus as being poor. the truth is the man is truly ignorant. Jesus was never poor, he only chose to be poor so that we through his poverty might be rich. same way he was made son who knew no sin, that we might be the righteousness of God. Jesus is the owner of the universe, the creator of everything. without him was anything made that was made. |
