My
last blog I talk about issue affecting Nigerian government and society. To day
I we be discussing about the issues of doctrines and how it affect Christianity
and Nigerian as whole. Let us take a closer look at the Bible as a guild line
to Christianity and how it been practiced in various churches.
According to the book of Exodus 20 which
indicate The ten commandment of God, it was observed that LOVE was the ultimate, but churches this days are not exhibiting
the characteristic “WHY?”, The
reasons is well know to those who have spiritual eyes. Let take for instance
the first day you will be invited to a church, a form we be issue to you by the
ushers, your name we be noted down and you we be asked to belong to a group,
attend the activities, Pay dues, like Tithe, Building Found, Missionary Found,
etc but when you have a problem the issues become different.
I
can recall different Issues/Matter where by a member of a church may need assistance
from church and he we be denies of it, for
example, a member being denies of Visitation when he/she is sick, A Financial
Assistance from a church, or a member being denies during resolution of
critical matter outside a church. The servant of God may used unnecessary
reason in other to block the assistance. Some churches may say he/she have not
done his full membership in a church but he is a full member in a group, or
some we say he is not a communicant in their own church. “What different been a full member in a group and not a full member in
a church?”. And because of all this reason, most born again Christian and
believer may depart from churches.
Furthermore
the bible stated that he who worship and obey him should not suffer or become
poor, yet most members suffer and die in churches without fulfilling their
destiny. According to the book of Leviticus
25:35-36 “If a fellow Israelite
living near you become poor and cannot support himself or herself, you must
provide for them as you would provide for a hired servant, so that they can
continue to live near you . Do not charge them any interest but obey God and
let your fellow Israelite live near you.”. Yet you we see one servant of
God who own 3 private jets and Big Jeep and his active member are begging for
food.
Secondary,
let talk about the issues of Interchurch Doctrine and how it affects Nigerians
and our society. See for instance A Redeem Doctrine is different from Winner
Chapel Doctrine, A Christ Ascension Church Doctrine is different from Assembly of
God Doctrine and A Catholic Church Doctrine is quite different from Anglican
Church Doctrine, yet we used same bible, deliver same message and served same
God. Also Same thing applicable in the issues of Baptism in churches. Let take for
instance, if you are attending Redeem Christian church of God and want to
change to a Winner Chapel Church, you have to undergoes another Baptism before
you we be accepted as full member of a Winner Chapel, same thing applicable
if someone want to change from Catholic church to
Anglican Church, the person have to undergoes another water baptism before he we be accepted as a full member of an
Anglican Church. Yet bible indicate that someone have to undergoes a water
Baptism once.
Finally,
in other to save our country and society as a whole, the issues of Religion
Discrimination should be look upon, Sentiment in an organization / Institution
should be regulated, Doctrines of Churches / Mosques should be regulated and
Fight against human right should be maintain
