Nigeria: Nation with the biggest churches with biggest auditoriums but backwardness and unprogressiveness!

China: Nation with the least churches but with one of the highest technological advancement and good GDP!

Ponder over this!

Tells you that religion is not a panacea for development. China is a Buddhist country amongst other religions. Faith is personal and is not reflected or measured by the size of auditoriums. Economic growth and development on the other hand come from deliberate efforts of a group of people to improve the quality of life of the generality of the population. Nigeria does not have that selfless group of people that will come together to create a strategy and action plan to improve everyones life.
Today, Nigeria is like a bazaar where everyone comes and takes as much as they can and runs away to the UK and US. That group of people that will deliberately and selflessly fashion out a plan for growth and development will not emerge because of big church auditoriums. It comes from selflessness and sacrificial thinking. Its actually ironical that millions of Nigerians troop to mosques and churches everyday to learn about selfless and sacrifice but everyone is still busy looting for themselves and their families and generations unborn.

Sunkyapogee:
Once I get to the wheel of this country I must regulate the building of churches and demolish those within the town making noise on a daily basic.. So help me God.

That's if you ever get there

Nice one.

Firebomber:
I don't know why Islamic head slammer terrorists are in pain over this news.

At least they are not using state and federal allocation to build the auditorium the way you terrorist are using government money to build your terrorist house

They accuse churches and Christianity of the source of poverty in Nigeria but forget that billions of dollar is been chanel to fight there useless allah army (boko haram and ISWAP) that are killing innocent people in the name of the useless god(allllah)

Well said, the insecurity caused by Islamic terrorists is one of the major things killing our economy but yet they would come and be blaming churches.

GeneralPula:

Even the oyinbos that gave you Christianity have by and large moved on. All I see here are business centers dedicated to generating billions of Naira every week, no wonder every one is trying to establish his or her own business center. Came to visit my sister in Lagos recently and there were like 7 churches on her street and ading steets.

You guys are not tired Abi of these your criticism.... the more you criticize, the more churches are built, your wailing won't stop them building more churches cuz they're not the ones responsible for your misery, hold your Government able

If you have a deep meaning of government, you won't say that.

TimmyTen:
Godless China is prospering while religious Nigeria, where every activity begins with a prayer, goes about begging for loans and grants. Japan doesn’t lace every discussion with ‘God’, ‘Jesus’ or ‘Allah’, but it is one of the least corrupt nations on earth while we are categorized as “fantastically corrupt” country in the world.

The church of God is not the problem of Nigeria. Rather it is the political class which has set
this culture of impunity for Nigerians. Today it is OK to get wealth by any means including stealing, yahooing, kidnapping and rituals and Nigerians will hail and respect you. It is not the church. The God of Christians is a BIG GOD. Nothing built in his honor can ever be too big.

Question... Have any of the prominent Men of God in Nigeria issued any condolence on TB Joshua death? Maybe I missed it but if not I find their silence very telling.

F117nighthawk:
Even Israel the HOLY LAND doesn't have as many churches as u have in Nigeria,yet Nigerians continue to hunger, suffer feels neglected and deprived in many ways by its leaders and corrupt elites, of what influence and benefits of all these massive churches being built? If we don't set our priorities right as a Nation, by building factories, boost investments and create jobs, these church edifices will continue to be a waste and nothing to write home about.

Majority of Israelis are not Christians but Jews

You're a genius!

With God nothing is impossible

UstazAhmed:
That is what Nigeria Christians are known for. They can never the government when the Fulanis are in power. Look at the way Oyedepo, Adefarasin and suleiman are criticising Buhari upandan. Something they never did when Jonathan and Obasanjo was in power. Mbaka that ed him, have been attacked by his people and out of fear, saying otherwise now.

That's why Islam is the best, we are not after buildings but true worship of Allah

you forgot to add, restiveness, and bokoharam, and jihad as attributes of what comes out of that religion too.

WittyLad:
Yet nah we poor and corrupt , of what relevance is a country with big auditoriums, but small jobs?
Big auditoriums, yet no peace

it just indicates the desperate state of their citizens and smart conmen in the name of pastors are quick to take advantage.

The bigger the problem the bigger the church

Is this political class a subset of another country or the same Nigeria? The political class are first Nigerians before they assume political positions.I disagree with the idea of always heaping the blame on politicians because people who do so are unmindful of the fact that politicians didn't drop from the moon into leadership positions. They are you and me.
Then there must be something about our society that makes people who go into political or leadership positions steal and abuse their power. I think its cultural. I think Nigerians have a cultural predilection to affluent display of wealth. Nigerians still view leadership in the 17th century context of kings and emperors. It is so prevalent that even a local government chairman is expected to have a retinue of aides and servants at his beck and call. Governors are expected to have a harem of girls to sleep with. Ministers are expected to be bowed and worshipped wherever they go.
Until leadership in Nigeria is properly defined as service to the people, others will go into leadership positions and continue to assume the 17th century style of monarchs.

JamParkMe:
Even the inventors of Christianity don't carry the religion on their head like Nigerians. I have no issue with all these mega churches but I cannot stand the fact that a majority of their are living in poverty while the leaders of the church and their children live in opulence. Rather than opening gigantic auditoriums or branches every day, they should spend more money giving back to the community. Open free hospitals, free schools, free houses for the homeless and stuff like that.

That's all fine..if you're a doctor will you work for free in a hospital? If you're a lecturer will you teach for free? Something that you won't demand from the government that actually FORCES you to pay taxes and different charges on services and commodities...a government you voted for in an election. You see them withholding salaries that are the workers RIGHTS yet you hail them and cower before them for your own CIVIL RIGHTS? Then turn around and demand those from churches? Misplaced priorities be our problem for this country.

And what has the church done to stop it?; Rather the proceeds from corruption is taken to church and your pastors accept them as offering or one tenth. The church is part of the problem, they encourage corruption.

Free for the community, paid for by their tithes and offerings. The teachers and healthcare staffs will be paid from the tithes and offering money. I rather that than mega churches.

Do you expect people who are already brainwashed to agree with you? The whole world is building industries Africans are building churches, yet they cry of un employment.
