Greatzeus:

Tell us the job you applied for,that demanded you been a born again to perform it. I don't believe your nicely written story. Unless you applied for a clergy work in a church or in a company owned and run with church resources,eg mission schools, church publishing outlets etc.

I'm not telling you to believe me by force or my story, my main point of writing this is just for all chritians all over the world to come together and stop causing division.

I don't even know the name of the church, but the vacancy read an international Christian organisation vacancy is in need of a born a gain Christian and my own position requirement.

Since I'm a Christian and I have the stated req6in the position, and I count and believe I'm a born again Christian, I decided to apply.


If you have not experienced this before doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

Have a nice day

Nbotee:
Nonsense and ingredients.. Shebi ppl like Paster Ize Iyamo or the Chosen Pastor who impregnated 2 sisters
or the various choristers and pastors knacking on a low unto born again way are d supposed born again abi? All we practice in dis parts is religion not christianity.... Na only Catholics dey commit all d sins in d country since other denominations are supposedly born again..

God bless you for this write up.

Most of us Christian don't like hearing the truth, once you say anything about church, they believe you are lieing.

LadySarah:
To hell with them. Op forge on.

Ima pentecostal but the seeming discord among Christians annoy me alot.

That's what alot of people don't know, but alot who have been coming on my head thinks I just sat and fabricated a story.

ayomipoosi:
That was how I wrote Chokhmah schools test, I scaled through, a very rigorous test it was.
I was invited for a training alongside others, and was addressed as a new staff. I was so haooy thanking God.
After one week, no call, to at least say resume or otherwise.
When I tried making enquiries on what went wrong, someone told me in confidence they considered their church members first. Meanwhile, the HR consultants told us clearly it will be based on merit and not sentiments. And we all believed as na church thing naa. All na wash.
I'm sure pastor David Ibiyeomie is not aware of all they did.
I'm so angry and I know God is watching

Thank God it happened to you, but some that has not experienced it, will call you a lier

ArticleBeast:
I don't believe the crap you wrote up there especially with it coming from a Europe based firm. Mention the details of the company

I hot a call from a Nigerian over there, the fact that thr call came from overseas those not mean theirs no religion racism there.

EmmaJnr1:
I also find it hard to believe his story

Don't worry, until it happens to somebody close to you before you believe.

Ayotemide:
I am going to need receipts that this happened. I find it hard to believe. An European county with it's almost atheist population asking you to verify if you are born again is synonymous to Buhari suddenly being proactive in Nigeria. That is impossible.

Receipts please. So whatever legal action you want to take can be pushed for you to the far heavens.

The person that spoke to me is a Nigerian who is based there.

I guess you didn't digest my write up well enough.

Don't worry until it happens to you or anyone close to you before you believe.

U1:
It's a bit surprising that some people didn't believe the narrative. Believe it or not, such can happen!

What if the organization in question is owned by a faith-based entity? There is this thing with religious people (of whatever faith) to often want to relate almost exclusively with their own.

And in case you're not aware, many other Christians don't consider Catholics as true Christians. Go figure.

Honestly, I guess the reason why they don't believe is because it has not happened to them.

When I was in school, we have joint Christian fellowship, do you believe that catholic are not among the joint fellowship may be because they believe our doctrine is different from other church.

I'm not here to defend Catholic, because my dads senior brother is now a pastor in one of the big church in Nigeria, he left catholic when he moved to Abuja and he became a pastor there..

mumjosh:


Exactly. The job descriptions states faith based. So they needed born again christian.

Do you mean because they said born again, so Catholics are not born again?

MENZPRIDE:


There are different sides to a coin ( a story). There are Rules and Regulations, there are Ts & Cs....
You didn't tell us the nature of the Organization, you didn't tell us the nature of the job, you didn't tell us the requirements and qualifications for the job...
Someone from Yobe or Borno might score 150 and gain admission, while someone from Rivers or Imo might score 220 and still not gain admission into that same institution...
I think you should encourage yourself in the Lord, you only missed the job cause of your Faith n Belief. You were qualified. Based on the interview conducted, you merited the job.
What if you got the job and you were asked to join a cult, swore an oath of allegiance or asked to defile your body?
You need to cheer up...
This might be a test or a preparation for something bigger n better.

Happy Birthday Dear, and Best Wishes to You, Today n Always!!!
I wish I could buy You a drink...

Thank you for the birthday wishes.

The organisation is an international fath based organisation, the requirement is a christain and born again Christian and the job position requirement.

Since I'm a Christian and I also believe im born again, that was why I gave it a shot

Doloris2626:


People like you don't believe anything unless the experience it. The poster doesn't need tell you about the job he applied, because already you have decided not believe him. I have an uncle who refused to help any of my siblings just because we are Catholic and he is a pastor.. He tried to entice us to be a born again, which literally means changing to a pentacostal church, dropping my catholic faith. The poster should just let it slide. At God's time you will get the job reserved for him.

God bless you brotherly, some people just don't understand anything until that thing happened to them, before they can believe.

I have an uncle too he is now a pastor, one of the reason why I don't go to his place, not as if he always force me to go to is church, but always tell me to find another church to go because we Catholics don't pray and we are not born again Christians.

He really likes me and threat me like his son, but not listening to him about switching church is our problem.

I can't leave my catholic faith for any other thing, we were all born Methodist but changed to catholic by friends

Kenmatt:
My dear, I have to talk to you like a brother, there is no "locus standing" on the legal war someone advised you on.

An employer has stated his "modus operandi" in connection to hiring an employee.

Truthfully, you didn't fit into what he wants. As a Catholic, you are a Christian by religion but you are not a born again Christian.

There is no need to pamper the gospel truth.

Thank you sor much

Organisation no want catholic see me see case.
Go and meet your Pope for employment

You cannot be a catholic and a born again Christian. When you accept christ as your lord and saviour you must be baptized by immersion and not sprinkling just like christ. You just showed the interviewer how confused you are about your faith.
Take note me sef I no holy but these are facts
Sorry

It's okay, just hold on to your Faith n Belief.
The"Trials of our Faith" is not only when we are asked to deny our belief. Sometimes, we asked to make adjustment to our belief, until we don't know what we stand for anymore.
Count it all joy and trust God for something bigger n better..

Vague story. I can't say anything until I understand the nature of the job.

If I were you I would have recorded the call and called them out on Twitter

Wunmi, I did read that you spoke to a Nigerian. My submission is if this company is based in Europe, it is near-impossible for your faith to be a qualifier to your employment and that is because half of Europe is Atheist.

Now please, avail me the name of this organization so that I verify this story, can you do that?

Ok.

But I'm sorry to say, it won't be possible to release their name to the public.

I hope you accept my decision

ArticleBeast:

I don't need to do that, my main reason putting up this write up is just to let Christian's understand that we are also divided.

And beside they called me via WhatsApp call.


Such thing has happened to my wife before, when she was looking for admission into nursing school, that was one of the Baptist nursing school.

After passing the test and other, she proceeded for the oral, immediately she said she was Catholic she was turned down immediately.

Catholic too have their own short coming.

But the reason why I'm writing this is for all Christians to come together as one, instead of this division of a thing.

ArticleBeast:

They are not Christians but churchgoers... Even the Orthodox feel the same about pentecostal and vice versa. What a pity!

Pity for who exactly? It seems you agreed as well that Catholics are not Christians. Going by your second sentence, who then are the true Christians?

Sometimes, I am tempted to think religion is a problem - people have sadly made it so. Christians accuse (or condemn) Muslims and the latter do the same to the former in some instances. Yet, within these "religions" there are divisions.

In spite of all the religiosity, evil continues to thrive. No one should tell me they are born-again - I can tell that myself!

Next time read with understanding. I believe you understand what vice versa means

ArticleBeast:

What's there to understand? Perhaps, you should re-read what you typed! I even asked a question to help me understand better but you ignored.

You seem to take a side in the first sentence, making whatever point you're trying to make with the following one a bit vague. Are the Orthodox right or it's the "Pentecostals" that are?

Y went to get job from Jehovah witness them, what did you expect
Op go and baptize.

Please be honest to describe exactly what kind of job you interviewed for, instead of trying to stoke up some denominational sentiment. If it's a job that is rooted in a particular Christian denomination then you have no point really. Because if that denomination thing had worked in your favour you wouldn't be here complaining. It is funny that we only notice things that are wrong when they aren't in our favour. It is human nature.

wunmi590:
Good day nairalanders,

Sorry I have to write this, I have decided to keep it to myself but, I decided to let it out.

Just like every other job seekers who are looking for jobs either to switch to a better pay or change environment.

Though I have been out of job since the COVID-19 pandemic started, I worked in a retail company, but since we have not been called back, I decided to search for job.

I saw an advert and decided to submit my application, just like every other people, luckily after one week or two, I got a mail that I have been shortlisted for their online test and after I pass, I will move to the next stage which is virtual interview before coming to their office to sign my employment letter.

After the mail, like 3 days I got a mail containing my ogin and password for the test, fiam, I opened and I did the test.

After like another 3days, I got a mail from them that I passed the test and i should be expecting a whatsap call from one of their head office in Europe.

Luckily I got the call, from one of the European country number from a Nigerian, believing is the call that would change my life forever.

After the normal introduction and other things like the job functions, the real bible questions started which I was able to scale through it.

Towards the end of the virtual interview, the last question was are you a born again Christian, have you been baptised and what denomination are you?.

And I said yes I'm a born again Christian, I've been baptised and I'm a Roman Catholic.

At the end of my speech his response was, is not possible to be a Catholic and be born again.

He said once you were not taken to the river to be baptised that's not a baptism.

Catholics are not born again Christians and I'm not baptised too just because I was not taken to the river to be baptised.

His last statement was, you actually have the experience but, we need other denomination not Catholic that the job entails somebody who is a real born again Christian.

That was how I lost the job, thinking today being my birthday, I will go to church and do special thanks giving.

I am a traditional worshipper.

I would have told him what he wanted to hear.

After all, there's no hard evidence any God exists. All of us just dey guess nii

ATTAHDYE:
You can make a case of discrimination on the basis of faith. Hope you recorded the call, even if you didn't you can get the call record from MTN and Co.

Gather all your correspondence with them as evidence. Get a good lawyer or go to the office of the Public Defender, Industrial Court, Consumer and Competition Protection Commission and sue them for a good amount of money.

Research their foreign connections and sponsors and petition them too. They may lose their sponsorship if it gets out that they practice this type of discrimination.

Don't let it go like that.

In this country? Tahhh! Take it back! Human Rights and human rights lawyers died the day Gani Fawehinmi went to his grave. Useless shithole country where nothing ever works! I am cursed to be a Nigerian! Yes I said it!

There are Catholics where were baptised in moving water or living water, through immersion. Baptism leaves an indelible mark on the soul whether it's through immersion or sprinkling as is the norm in most Roman Catholic churches. The reason why I'm lecturing you on this is because you failed at not knowing what you practice and it's effects and that translated to the stumbling block you encountered. You are not a Catholic because you attend the gathering, you are one based on your faith and knowledge of that faith you practice. Just like many Christians, you are oblivious of who you say you are and lack basic knowledge about what you claim to be. BTW I'm a Catholic but not Roman Catholic

You wont blame them...imagine you attend salvation ministries knownig fully well your pastor doesn't believe in covid 19. It will be normal for your boss to believe you won't take Covid 19 preventive measures seriously

First of all, happy birthday.

Now judging from what the person told you, the job requires someone who has the qualifications they are looking for.

Why are you upset? If a job wants a BSc holder and a wassce holder applies shouldn't they reject?

Please stop adding sentiments to things.

dey there dey John yourself.

wunmi590:
Lala, please come and help me to push this to front page.


If we Christian's don't like each other and we begin to segregate between denomination, I don't see why this country won't divide into two.


I wanted to let it slide that is one of those things when job hunting, but I just have to let the cat out of the bag, because I don't want to start thinking about it as today is my birthday, I need to free my mind.

There's no where in the bible where sprikles or partial baptism was done. Since we are after christ, full immersion only counts
