The 'Area Fada' has a new message for people
using God's name anyhow. Read his piece below...
My guy, things are falling apart and the
Center can no longer hold. People just dey
craze anyhow and dem go see anyhow.
Jungle don mature, HA!!! I fit faint. When I
was a little boyin the city of Peterkwa, called
Port-Harcourt, I was taught NEVER to use
God’s name in vain. Nowadays, everybody
just dey call God name anyhow dem like.
When Yahoo yahoo boys dey pray for good
business, dem go call Him name before they
obtain. Armed robbers pray, before they go
for an operation, dem go hala Him name.
Some of our governors are using prayers to
confuse their people as they plunder the land
with impunity. Bone face Bragadoooo. Some
of them these days claim they talk with God,
they claim they are MEN of God, they also
use God’s name to obtain big time from their
congregation.
Several religious wars have been fought in God’s
name, politicians loot and run down the country in
God’s name, Kenyan terrorist attackers paused for
prayers before they continued their killings, all they
did was done in God’s name, hideous criminals
operate, relying on God’s name, great crimes and
atrocities are committed, all in God’s name.
Chinekee God, are you there?
Throughout history, religion has been used as an
excuse or driving force for some of the worst
atrocities unimaginable. From prehistory to
modern history, religion is for many people just an
excuse to kill some people, obtain from some
people, lie to some people, and cause all ‘kinda’
katakata, all in the name of God. This is not FAIR!
Biko!
I was watching CNN the other day and the news of
the Bishop of Limburg, Franz-Peter Tebartz-van
Elst popularly called The BLING Bishop, being
ordered to Rome to answer to his choice of
mounting an extravagant new residence complex
which blew out to at least 31 million euros ($42
million). Not too long the German church had
suffered fallout from a child sex scandal. Kai!
Madness!
I simply don’t understand this, using church funds
to enrich ones’ self or satisfy ones’ selfish desire.
$42 million, what for? Did he forget that people
contributed this money, that this money was hard
earned money worked for by members of the
congregation?
My major concern is why he wants to destroy the
mission and vision of Pope Francis, the most
popular Pope since the history of the Vatican. The
true Man of God the world has come to love. Which
one we go talk, His reforms, His Humility, His
Simplicity, His Spirituality, His exemplary life
according to the teachings of Jesus Christ, why
this German Bishop want to pour sand san into the
pope’s “garri”. I don't know.
These days you will hear most Pentecostal
pastors talk about how God spoke to them, how
they were called, how they have amazing powers,
bla bla bla, how they received the anointing. How
they can cast and bind, I tire for all these wash
wash pastors. Some of these men of very
questionable background and character are all
over the place now. Telling all who cares to listen
how they drink Tea with the Almighty God. Some
families have already been put asunder because
the pastor somehow is ‘remote controlling’ wives
looking for the fruit of the womb, by testing the
merchandise personally. kai!
They are the real Abrakadabra in God’s name.
Dem no send. I don’t know if I’m the only one
confused, but I don’t see the difference between
pastors and native doctors any more. If you are
still sane, maybe you can help me differentiate;
the craze for private jets; pastors/politicians,
wearing of expensive suits; pastors/conmen
wearing million dollar wrist watches; pastors/
conmen, building expensive schools; pastors/
politicians, casting, binding and miracle explosion;
pastors/native doctors, embezzling public funds;
the list is endless. These days we don't know the
difference between san sand and garri. Odikwa
risky. Are these pastors truly men of God or
business men capitalizing on people’s
frustrations? What is their original calling sef, to
compete in worldly riches or to win souls like it is
said?
How can you be living extravagantly when some
church members can’t even afford a meal? That is
the height of wickedness. Enough of the deceit,
enough of turning the bible upside down to suit
people’s ears while they suffer in poverty.
We need spirituality not religiosity. Even with all
these churches at every junction and every
bending corner, in every brothel and hotel, morality
is at an all-time low. The church should be a place
for spiritual nourishment and not a kalokalo
venture, or for prosperity preaching. Pastors
should concentrate more on how we should all be
our brother’s keepers, rather than praying for us
to be rich like them. God does not operate like a
Babalawo, neither is he a Nigerian.
I am wondering if me too won’t open my own
church (runs away), but it will be different because
I will never use Gods name in vain. All these our
so called Men of God should come out and hustle
like real men and stop using psychology to deceive
people and take their money. Haba!!! I guess that
is their hustle. Where is the humility that Christ
talked about? If anyone is not leading by the
examples of Jesus just like the pope, then his
‘Man-of-god-izm’ is very questionable. I thought
they said the meaning of Christianity was to be
Christ- like? I’m just wondering. Maybe I’m lost.
Abeg, I rest my case joor. Man of God my ebony
ass, who dash dem? I am even a better BOY of
GOD than those MEN OF GOD.
