Nigeria is a territory soaked in pantheons of religious beliefs.My country's since her inception has rooted herself in diverse cultures, Religions and beliefs.
The same way,Israel as a nation,identified herself with Judaism ever since its beginning,Nigeria too, has ever been a religious nation,however unlike the homogenous Judaism of the country of Israel ,ours is a heterogeneous complex one.
In the north,we held firmly to Islam,the religion of Peace yet so,so,warring.In the south,we are claiming the holiness of Christ and his righteousness, yet very much apostatizing!
I am going to the heart of my point today,time is so precious,have got not to be jumbling but holistically simplistic.Nigeria needs to worship God and not Religions.
The truth Nigeria needs is God, the brain and source behind Religion. We need to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of those who are our region's neighbours but never used them as weapons against them.
Religion is not static,today their weaknesses you see,but tomorrow it may become their strong influence and power base.
Let us acknowledge Religion as one thing capable of ruining our joy,possibly our peace.Religion is way we approach God,we need Religion,to tap into the meaning behind our existence.
Many people in this world have proved they have no knowledge of God by taking Religion in to their hand as weapon of mass destruction.
Religion starts from conscience but should not end there,let us know that conscience become dead when it no longer yields its values,Religion housed in conscience is no end in itself but in God,the perfecter of all things.
The future lies is fishing out what we know are harmful in Religion,on our soil.We should know that we own the land,God has given it to us but we own not Religion,hence,where is brotherhood among us Nigeria.Brotherhood is breathing somewhere,though getting somehow scarce,let's be aware,like air out of the gas chamber brotherhood is thinning out.Brotherhood is stronger than Religion!
God be with you,Nigeria till next time!
My exam is cool and all praised to Jehovah,Hallelujah!
Jesus Ascension
He is coming Again.Be prepared.
