It’s a fundamental
believed that ignorance arises as result of lack or insufficient knowledge. I
believe there is nothing wrong with this assumption. Hence, despite all this,
there is no man without any knowledge if not artificial knowledge but at least natural
knowledge which is the greatest of all. Looking at the oxford interpretation of
ignorance, it simply means lack of knowledge or information about something.
With this, I believe
one way or the other in life, humans are always ignorance of a particular
subject or the other because one might not have all full information of
everything you need or desire. This ignorance phenomenon can take different
dimension ranging from political, economic, societal and above all religious
ignorance. A particular thing I have experience and take note in all aspect of
life is that, people hide and disguise under other peoples ignorance to exploit
and dislodge them of their resources and right”
In this article, I want
to focus more on religious ignorance and how this has affect religious faithful
relative to the main ancestral priority and natural obligation of religious
obligation. In those days, churches for instances use to be a house of prays
and abode for supplication of man to the will of his creator but nowadays the
reverse is the case, the house of God is now the house of business where
religion activities such as prays is commercialize, pays is negotiated subject
to the amount in pocket which is a major determinant of what, which and type of
pray and anointing you will received in the house of God.
Men of God nowadays are
no longer preachers and religion mentors but money based prayer consultant and
good religion business negotiators. the most common language in church those
days was prays, repentance and salvation but nowadays these words are out of
fashion but all what you can get this days is perfectly constructed and
fabricated preaching on sowing of seed, tithe and offering, pledged, donation,
priced anointing and prays which is a function of how much you can bring to the
altar
In some years back, if
you pay your tithe to the church, your pastor want to know the source of the
money but nowadays the source is not the issue but the money. Before, the man
of God can pray for you in the house of God, if you must tapped the anointing ,
that must be done with a particular amount (Holy ghost seed) in which the
amount with you will determine the tempo and versatility of the pray.. If you
must listen and tap from the testimony of others too, that you must do with
reachable amount of money.
the house of God has
become the house of business , the altar of God has become a strong room where
cash must be flowing around, church members has become daily contributors while
men of God are now business consultant and religion politician with their
different exploitative strategies
In those days, without
money you can go and worship in churches but nowadays if you are not sure of
your pocket, you need a rethink and be vast in your decision whether to go or
not to avoid indirect and direct embarrassment. What are you going to do if a
particular pray point cost certain amount which you can’t afford and anointing
oil go for a particular amount you can’t afford? I believe as human you will seem
not comfortable!
Churches are no longer
house of God but house of commercialization no wonder every preacher now want
to have their own church and become general overseer (Daddy G.O). Every house
now has a church stand and in nearest future every household shall have a
church and a pastor! One house one Shepard
Recently, I met a
particular so called a man of God who has worked for a particular ministry for
some years, he was really an assistant general overseer, to my amazement, he
resign from the ministry and from his job to set up his own ministry having
accused his boss of being the only one
making and spending the money. He has henceforth set up his own ministry at
least to be in charge of his own investment. those days people trade commodity
to make money but this days our fellow human beings has replace the
phenomenon…what an irony of life!
The men of God have the
product which includes miracles, signs and wonders and temporal anointing for
excellence. their customers bring all what they have in exchange for their products,
they progress and their members retrogress, they live in mansion while members
live in ghettos, they use members money to build schools and universities yet
members can’t send their children to the schools because its not affordable,
they use members money to buy private jets, having a fleet of cars yet members
can’t afford a car, they buy multi-investment yet dividends is not paid to
members , they travel overseer on daily basis yet members cannot afford three
daily meal for their family
It is high time we stop
fooling ourselves with pretense to exploit and duped others all in the name of
satisfying God will. God is not a magician and mathematician, the house of God
is a house of worship, prays, salvation, repentance and helping others in all
manner of life. Members of any religion circle should seek information about
God instead of allowing this worldly driven economic opportunist to hide under
religion ignorance of them to acquired, exploit and drain their wealth
In summary, religion worshipers should be informed that God do not spend money and hence no one can
bribe God. giving is good because it is all about sharing which is one of the
fundamentals law of nature but this must be done with caution, love and sincerity
of heart not all what these new religion entrepreneurs portrait it to be. The
house of God is not a house of business but house of prays
If you understand the
natural law of giving and you don’t know where to give, then give to the needy,
poor, charity, destitute, beggars, displaced, orphans and others who need help
from others to survive this life. With this, you will get the earthly and
heavenly reward for giving not investing all the worth of your labour to better
the dream and vision of another man that fetch you no reward
Giving to God is giving
to the needy not to self fulfills religious entrepreneurs!
