I began thinking,why do we judge people and the church they attend. Its a common thing here in our country Nigeria and maybe other countries. We don’t see the goodness in people and one slight mistake your church will be dragged into it.
I personally think that people should attend any church of their choice so far as the church you attend brings you closer to God and makes you a better person to your family,people around you and the entire world itself. I know someone who is a catholic but doesn’t get moved when in church and basically just keeps going there cause they were born into that church. This is so wrong on so many levels.
People should go to the church that brings out the best in them spiritually and brings them closer to God. If Catholic Church is not it for you change, if Methodist is not it for you change, if Winners or any other church is not it for you change. ‘ You deserve a place of worship where your soul will be moved by the spirit and you become closer to God’ .
Well the big issue in Nigeria is the issue of Religion. Basically this whole religion thing is quite simple to me but people make it way more complicated than it is. In my opinion all religions worship the same God just through different means. Some do it through Jesus, some through Allah or through any other means but at the end of the day it’s one God everything goes to . So why so much hate between them .
They make it seem like it’s about whose religion is more superior then the other. Religion superiority has been going on for ages . It is basically rooted in out hearts right from when we were born. But it doesn’t have to be the his way.
You can choose your path to follow but don’t judge others for following theirs. We should learn to love and treat each with other with respect because at the end of the day it’s the same heaven and paradise we are all fighting for to get in. This will go along way to make Nigeria a better place.

August 17, 2019 at 4:55 pmThis is a very beautiful piece darling. I equally feel that churches should be an instrument of shaping an individual into being better, apart from serving God. If churches accomplish this, then we good.

August 17, 2019 at 5:24 pmThis is so right this religion stuff is one of the major problem in Nigeria…I wish people will do things normally without judging you for what you belief in …If we can actually come together and put aside our believes Nigeria will be a better place…

August 17, 2019 at 5:27 pmReligious tolerance among other socio-political concessions can go a long way to strengthen Nigeria’s unity.
Although all religious beliefs centers on the worship of a particular godhead, presumed to be the WAY, the truth is that peace and sustainable development in a personal life, nationhood and the world at large can be achieved through love as that alone can inform tolerance and respect for the seemingly differences of spirituality.

August 17, 2019 at 5:35 pmThe issues of parents enforcing worship in a particular church make the children lose sight of what out to and start doing other things
Also the issues of which religion is superior. Make your chioce and respect that of others

August 18, 2019 at 5:07 amA lot of people Christians actually stop fellowshipping cos they still tryna find where they can connect..
Churches is supposed to be a family..but rn it is now a political gathering.. God help us find ourselves..

August 21, 2019 at 10:52 amYou couldn’t have said it any better Geraldine. When it comes to “religion” we all don’t know who is right or wrong. If we need to make progress in Nigeria, we should focus more on what we have in common and ignore our differences. Thanks so much for touching on this subject!🙏🏽
