RACISM, SARS AND CORONAVIRUS IN CHINA BY PROPHET GOODNEWS ADOLPHUS

In 1986, it was published in the national and international Dallies and over world Radio Broadcast that the Chinese were beating up the blacks in their streets accused of spreading the HIV/AIDS VIRUS . Consequently, according to the news, blacks from all over the world including those from the Caribbean countries went to their respective Embassies demanding for Visa back home. It was indeed a great embarrassment to the whole of the black race seeing their fellow blacks facing such humiliation and embarrassment in China. But now the tide has turned up against them; that every person who comes from China becomes a suspect of the Conoravirus which had negatively affected her economy as a plague.   

In 1986, as I heard the news over the radio and newspapers, my heart was broken and burst into tears considering the assignment God has given me as the end-time John the Baptist in the skin of the blacks; so I felt humiliated and embarrassed as well while at the same time I was fighting for the liberation of the blacks in South Africa using my global military prophetic powers being  the combined prophetic powers of Moses and Elijah (Revelation chapter 11)

Then I cried unto the Lord and said “Lord why should we face such embarrassment in China. The fighting for the liberation of the blacks in South Africa is not yet over and now China has come up with the intimidation, humiliation and embarrassment because of colour  of the skin.?  Then the Lord said to me ‘China is one of the nuclear  world  powers; so I will treat her as a Nuclear Super Power for what she did to the blacks” 

In most of my revelation given to me from the angel's scroll, the East is used as the starting point of the coming global disaster and then would move on to the west just as I saw the vision of the two half-moons and the firestorm from the east which I wrote in my article, the "THE HYDROGEN BOMB FROM SPACE". 

In one of the night visions in 1986, I appeared at the seashore and I was given a nuclear missile to fire to the East by an angel but did not teach me on how to shoot it but disappeared. I did not know where to start until the late Pop Star Michael Jackson appeared to me who taught me on how to shoot it. The missile was facing the east mounted on a carriage. So I fired it and it moved from the air into the east and the missile exploded and coming back to the west in the form of great firestorm exploding both on both land and sea: it was a  very frightful sight  and I smelled the bodies of those that were being consumed as a result of the explosion. 

Then Michael and I began running away as fast as we could but the speed of the explosion was faster than us. Michael who was before me got tired and fell and I tried to back him up to run with him for our safety but he refused and said "Goodnews do not worry about me run for your life I cannot run anymore, I am tired" He refused me carrying him and when I looked back, the explosion had come very close to us so I left him and was running and when I looked back again, already he had been consumed in the explosion and I felt the heat of the fire very close to me to be consume. It was then I said "O God, if this is a dream wake me up" then immediately I opened my eyes on the bed. It was indeed a nightmare. 

Having got this revelation about China heavenly nuclear bomb explosion, I knew that it will surely happen but where can I publish it? I asked myself. Which Journalist will believe this revelation because I am John the Baptist sent for the liberation of the blacks throughout the world including the blacks in the former apartheid South Africa? 

So for a witness of this revelation, I placed a classified advert in the then National Concord Newspaper which read thus: “ Strong message against  South Africa and world events through John  the Baptist, sent as a savior for the freedom of the blacks throughout the world. Dated 2^nd June, 1986 page 17. 

Then in 1987, the tragedy stuck first in China  in the form of severe bush fire disaster caused by lightening from the sky such  as never happened before. The most populated country on earth was begging the whole world to come to her aid but of no avail; it was  quenched by severe tornado with heavy down pour; and they arrested two persons accused of setting the forest on fire and while there were in detention, they  saw the  lightning struck again  and set the forest ablaze for the second time to release the innocent persons they arrested. Then again the fire was quenched by another severe tornado with severe heavy down pour. 

 “Nature against China” China faces double plagues:” made the national and international dallies headlines and since from that that time  on there was no report of bush fire disaster in China anymore  but however  the  effect of the spiritual  nuclear bomb explosion in China since as far back as 1986  is now  translated into  SARS and most recently the Coronaviruses which I called “ Respiratory  Deficiency Syndrome” (RDS) based on the fact that there is no any other country with this virus except  China as the  origin being also  the first country on earth to   embarrass   other nationals accused of spreading disease.

        THE NEUTRON  BOMB EXPLOSION – SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS 

As an end-time biblical prophet, I do combine my teaching with science, historical facts and biblical references to buttress my points for a proof and not based on one sided teaching.  The question now we may ask is “What type of nuclear bomb that spiritually exploded in China?”

Biblically, Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by Hydrogen Bomb from the sun while  in the 80s contain 90 percent of Hydrogen atom; according to Moses, the whole land was a waste, nothing grow on it and no grass can sprout” (Deut. 29:23). 

Evidently, the Atomic Bomb that dropped in Japan during the second World War  cased the spot of the explosion to  be barren and  as smote as grass where no grass can sprout as at then, caused incurable cancer; some victim might still be alive till  today!.  According to the book of Ezekiel, the heavenly nuclear explosion would cause the bones of the victim to be contaminated and would require professional men  to bury them during the war of Gog and Magog (Ezek. 39:10-16). 

The book of Prophet Zachariah reveals that during the heavenly nuclear  explosion, the flesh of men shall burn off while standing on the feet, the eye  shall burst out and shall affect the tongue due to the effect of the ultra-high radiation (Zech. 14:12). 

Then King David one the famous biblical scientists reveals that upon the wicked he shall rain fire and brimstone with scorching wind (which is the effect of the ultrahigh radiation like the explosion of nuclear bomb. (Psalms 6:11).  Watch the DVD of the American film called “TERMINATOR” PART 1-2 showing the destruction of nuclear explosion.

RESPIRATORY  DEFICIENCY SYNDROME (RDS)

 

One of the greatest fear of nuclear explosion is that it pollutes the atmosphere after the explosion; this air can travel several miles apart even across continent like a dark cloud;’ so even though you escaped  within  the radius of explosion you must breath in oxygen to survive; this is where it becomes too dangerous in case of full scale unclear World War. It damages the lungs to prevent breathing which will result to death. Therefore nuclear bomb explosion can latter translate into real biological weapon. 

In another development, Neutron Bomb is one the most dangerous nuclear weapons that explodes but does not destroy structures such as buildings but only kills anything that breath including insects   according to Wikipedia. The explosion releases the poisonous gas that pollute  the atmosphere to damage the lungs to prevent  breathing  in Oxygen which will result to dead.   

                                 

    THE SOLUTION  

The only solution is that the whole world should pray for China for God to forgive her sins in respect of what she did to the blacks in the 80s accused of spreading the HIV/AIDS VIRUS. It is written in the bible that you should not hurt the strangers in your own land because you were strangers in Egypt. God should heal their land spiritually and take away the plague. 

Originally, I thought the heavenly missile explosion only ended up with the mysterious forest fire and the great tornado which occurred twice in 1987.  It was some few days ago that I got this new revelation because I have strong sympathy for China being one of the most friendly nations of the African continent in terms trading and industrial development,  of which about 70 percent of most African imports are from China. A country that got up from her sleep and started producing  goods and services without natural resources like mineral  in the ground but only industrial technology which is competing with the United States. So China becomes a role model to several countries  around the world. 

 Again as I was wondering of this kind of unfavorable development affecting her, the Lord reminded  me of this  revelation in respecting of the heavenly nuclear bomb explosion which is being translated into SARS and Coronavirus with respiratory infection.      

Therefore, I am using this opportunity to advice government of all nations to warn their citizens to stop embarrassing blacks and other nationals of all races. Some blacks are embarrassed even in the football pitch calling them “Black Monkey” throwing banana peels at them and  calling  them all kinds of mockery names as the Chinese did to them  in respect of the slave trade that affected the black race because of their strength and energy to work on plantation farms according to slave trade history. Before the era of the slave trade, there was no racial discrimination against the blacks even  Black Popes had emerged at the Vatican City of the Roman Catholic Church in Rome within the 1^st  to the 4th Century prior to the slave trade era which started within the 17^th and  ended in 18^th Century. Based on the fact that the blacks were the  first to rule the whole world for several thousands of years before Greece being the first western nation to rule  before Rome.

RADICAL GOSPEL CIVILIZATION: THE ROOT CAUSE OF PERSECUTION (2) BY PROPHET GOODNEWS ADOLPHUS

THE ROLE OF MENTORSHIPS IN RADICAL GOSPEL:  

 A Mentor is a couch in any profession; gives counseling and support to his subject being the student. Consequently, if the Mentor gives wrong counseling, the student would take it because he feels that he knows better than himself. 

In secular Sciences, there are theories that were accepted all over the world for so many years but was later proved wrong by another Scientists who came up with new theory that proved the first Scientist wrong.  So it becomes a check and balance in secular science; but that is not the case with Theologians. 

In another development, during the industrial revolution that took place in Europe in the 18 Century, lot of Scientists came up with useful inventions that changed the world; but today, theologians are now coming up with ideas that corrupt the world and putting Christians into modern day danger through the introduction of radical gospel blend with selfish idea from the passage of the bible to make money and to gain popularity as an Inventor of such idea and no longer for  the salvation of the soul. The more idea he introduces the more money he makes. 

During the industrial revolution, the inventor produced a machine for the first time but today the theologian Inventors  produce  books containing ideas on how to corrupt the gospel to make Christianity as simple as possible, which become the easy way and not the hard way and become the broad way to follow and not the narrow gate. So many are now following the broad way and no longer the narrow gate. 

Since many are following the broad way, the amount in the church bank account will increase and the broad way preacher becomes one of the riches Pastors in the world.  Oh, what an easy way to make money and come out of poverty? That will bring about more emphasis on prosperity gospel as the main focal point of the radical gospel and no longer preaching about repentance from sin which reduce the population of the church. 

Consequently, only very few churches still maintain the true gospel for the salvation of the soul amidst the radical gospel preachers and their large congregation with branches all over the world.   

So we are in the era of theological revolution and no longer the industrial revolution as to know who invent this idea from Prosperity to Grace Gospel and no more preaching about sin,  because we are the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ etc. 

As a world-wide influential  Mentor introduced this one idea and his books are selling very well bringing in millions of Dollars like an invented money making machine, another influential Mentor would think of another or similar idea and introduced into the world and the world take it. So it becomes a very lucrative and competitive business.

It is not quite possible to disagree with another Mentor on whatsoever theory introduced provided it makes money quite unlike the secular scientists in as much as they are of the same Pentecostal fold although a Founder or member of another denomination. It became a bond acceptable by various Pentecostal churches world-wide provided the inventor of that idea is globally influential and a mentor of other mentors. 

These ideas are distributed through books and sell all over the big churches with global branches, international ministerial conferences, cable satellite television network and through pastoral mentorship channels in Pentecostal churches in order to make it a very popular new idea which is creeping into the Orthodox churches through any of the above named  channels. 

So money making gospel idea takes  a center stage and not based on the salvation of the soul quite unlike other religious bodies that are quite consistent  in their practices and teachings and not changing from one form of believe to another like introducing new model of invention.

 It is the Orthodox churches that are consistent  in their believe and doctrine although under the influence of the evangelistic or Pentecostal  churches who are consistently in the fear that they would take over all their members.

              DIVISION OF CHURCHES 

Now the changing from one form of believe or doctrine to another by the evangelical churches is based on the fact that they spilt away more often to form a new churches with a new name by a new founder who will search for Mentor anywhere in the world and to become an obedient servant to his Mentor. 

So he is bound by whatsoever idea his mentor introduced either good or wrong and will spread the same idea to his local congregation. So several Pentecostal or evangelical church Pastor as Founders  have several Mentors from around the world that are recognized all over the world with big churches and very popular in satellite cable televisions. 

 But  that is not the case with the Orthodox churches; rather they spread and form branches maintaining the original name  anywhere in the world. So the changing from one idea of the gospel to another  is not quite possible unless some slight differences due to the influence of evangelical churches  in order to retain their members as individual branch pastors would not look for mentors to introduce another kind of doctrine unless from the top hierarchy at the national or international level such as the Archbishop or the Pope.     

 CHRISTIAN AND ISLAMIC TERRORISTS  

  

The Islamic terrorists are of the believe that they are fighting against radical civilization which are contrary to the teachings in the Koran and will have their reward in heaven if they die in the act. 

Then the radical Christians likewise engaged in the act of terrorism based on the fact that they are fighting for Jesus and if they die they also will have their reward in heaven. 

The Islamic terrorists use bombs and donate the device and kill several others including themselves as suicide bombers. Then the radical Christians use the bible as the bomb and donate the device from the passages of the bible to first attack Moslem with the message that unless they repent from Islam else they will all go to hell fire because Jesus is the only way – no  other even Prophet Muhammed  which result in religious riot and several persons will die including the radical Christians which is the same act as a suicide bomber. 

Also some radical Christians   hide themselves and published offensive information online and offline  blaspheming against religious Founders which result in bombing of churches and dead of several other Christians as perpetrators of terrorism through radical gospel. 

The Apostles and ancient Christians lost their lives through imperial worship of Rome and other gods involving sacrifice of human beings. Therefore, religions groups fighting against individual religious faith which result in loss of lives is an act of terrorism based on the fact that they are people of the same faith, preaching  and teaching the same message for the salvation of the soul and judgment day. They will be equally judged on the day of judgment as terrorists including other perpetrators of those barbaric acts. 

   MORAL GOSPEL SONGS

As I earlier mentioned, ancient gospel musical stars such as Sankey producer of Sacred Songs and Solos (SS&S), contain songs for various functions such as songs for sinners repentance and salvation used for evangelism but today gospel stars even all over the world  are producing  Don Mon kind of Songs known as “Praise and Worship” and he is being gifted by God in that line of songs. Based on the fact that his music sells all over the world, he  automatically become the mentor of all the Praise and Worship artists  with no mentioning of repentance from sin and salvation messages as radical gospel preachers  are no longer interested in preaching about repentance from sin both on the pulpit and in music considering it as outdated version of Christianity. 

Take for example, King David was the king of gospel music in the bible and his first album was Psalm chapter one which reads “Blessed is the man that worked not in the council of the ungodly nor seated in the ways of the sinners …..rather mediated on the law day and night….” Followed by several chapters of the book of Psalms for different functions. Other ancient artist like Sankey followed his footstep and composed their songs for various functions  to be used in churches with some evangelistic songs like this “While Jesus whispers to you come sinners come, while we are praying for you come, sinners come…..now is the time to know him come, sinner come, now is the time to know him come sinners come….. “ (SS&S 366).

           THE  SECULAR  ARTISTS  

The secular artists preach the word of God in their songs to effect changes both in the government and the society  like late Bob Malley and the rest of other Ragga stars around the word. The late Michael Jackson also contributed in preaching of Repentance from evil practices.  The notable album include “We are the world” and others “Don’t kill the world” But it is now becoming too rare to see gospel stars preaching the word of repentance in their songs to effect changes.

 What you will hear as Gospel music is “God is very beautiful, God is Holy, God is mighty, God is faithful, I praise you Lord because you are Holy of Holiness,  he butters my bread, he sugars my tea, he gave me a job and gave me a car, he delivered me from my enemies, Oh what a wonderful God?, etc. They will sing from year to year producing   several albums and  no repentance message to effect changes but rather gospel blues and prosperity songs to entertain criminals as their customers who know all the best gospel artists in the world under ‘Praise and Worship” and prosperity music.

          SECURITY NETWORK

While radical gospel based on “GRACE” take a center stage in Christendom, criminal activities is worst in the developing and least developed countries. Take for example, the advanced countries can easily identity a terrorist through satellite communication system just within 24 hours but in other countries they depend on who would claim the responsibility for the act because the security network is poor. So the other countries are volatile for all manners of criminal activities unlike in the advanced countries that has good security network.

 Therefore, the Islamic and other religious bodies bridge the gap for the poor security network through teaching and practicing of the good  moral standard  although does not guarantee one hundred percent crime free society even in the advanced countries that has good security network and also introduced Sharia courts  (Muslim courts) to judge criminals supporting government effort to combat crime but you cannot  find one  in Christian dominated  regions  except the secular judiciary courts full  of bribery and corruption. 

Therefore introducing radical gospel in third world countries become extremely dangerous due to poor security network specially in regions that are predominantly Christians in-as-much as radical gospel does not supplement government effort to combat crimes rather fuel it up.   

WHO IS THE ANTICHRIST?

The bibles reveals that the antichrist changes God’s laws  and as the false prophet to appear like a lamb performing miracles, signs and wonders but speaking like a dragon (introducing radical gospel to destroy the laws) but appear as Christian which is the lamb like but a dragon within. (Dan. 7:2528 &; Rev. 13:11).

In that case, the Muslims and other religious bodies protect the laws in their regions quite unlike the Christians that had been deceived by radical gospel from the lamb like false teachers  to destroy the laws with the advocacy on “GRACE”. 

So the antichrist and false prophet is identified  with the radical Christians and not the Muslims and other religious bodies that protect the laws in their regions and countries that are already supplementing government effort to combat crimes as an evidence.

Based on this development, Christians alone cannot rule the world in God’s kingdom contrary to what they claim judged by moral standard. Therefore, the other folds from other religious groups will combined together with the Christians through John the Baptist to complement each other to ensure a formidable God’s kingdom society free from all forms of social vices which the other religious bodies  are better based on overwhelming evidence in conformity with God’s Kingdom  biblical standard.  

                       THE SOLUTION

Having analyzed all the factors that constitute in the persecution of Christians from around the world, the follow factors could provide solution:

1.     Christians should bear in mind that the name of Jesus is the symbolic meaning of “WORD OF GOD” as stated in the bible. The same word of God with great similarities is being preached by several religious bodies all over the world for the salvation of the soul  and not Christians alone.  That same word of God become the way the truth and the life and not in the person of Jesus Christ that bears that name. Therefore he told this disciples that the Scribes and Pharisees sit on Moses seat; therefore must observe all their teachings and not their practice because they do no keep to what they preached (Mat. 23:1-7).

2.      

So they also preached Jesus in his time which is the word of God. This word of God has no relationship with the preacher who could be faulty in one sin or the other like king David, Moses and King Solomon but the word they preached are still right there in the bible and you cannot remove it because they sinned. So there is no relationship and the same applies to Jesus Christ who was called “Word of God” as nickname. The same word he preached  created all things and not Jesus himself like any other Prophet  but a messenger of the word of God. 

3.     The preaching on “Grace” as the major emphasis should be avoided because it encourages criminal activities and does not supplement government effort to combat crimes rather fuel it up to grow like a wild fire and people love hearing such message as way of compromising for their wrong doing believing that  the Holy Spirit will change them; that is a very wrong idea. When  they die in sin , they will mention your name for not telling them the blunt truth and you will be accountable for their own blood. (Ezek. 3:`18 and 33:18)

4.     Everyone on earth lives by the grace of God as we all know it; so do not blow it as a  trumpet to retain members in  your congregation which is a very bad idea.

5.     They should learn on how to work with other religious bodies of the same or similar faith and stop discrimination.

If the above  functions outlined are put into practice, it will create love and unity as most of the individuals in the government sectors are also members of other religions bodies. So stop bring in racism and discrimination in religions. God is one in all the religions and he is  the founder of them all; no matter the name they called him and the form of worship. They all survive through his divine grace and mercy in any part of the world even in areas there are no religious bodies at all to preach. Do not condemn them because their creator has not condemned them.

Remember the story of Apostle Peter and Cornelius (Act. 10:1-48)

RADICAL GOSPEL CIVILIZATION: THE ROOT CAUSE OF PERSECUTION (1) BY PROPHET GOODNEWS ADOLPHUS

In the 70s and 80s communist countries persecuted lot of Christians and many of them were killed and imprisoned. In some countries churches were restricted  even in modern times such  as Malaysia, North Korea and others. (See google for ban on churches).  In some countries, the bible become the most prohibited item that could lead you to dead if you are caught with it. But that is not the case with Muslims, Buddhism and other world religious bodies. Yet Christianity becomes the fastest growing and biggest religious organization in the world. 

This article serves as monograph  regarding the root cause of the persecutions of Christians  quite unlike other world religious bodies and provide solution to that effect.

The cause of persecution based on radical Gospel are as follows:

1.     Jesus is the only way the truth and the life; no  man comes to the father unless by  him. His name is above all other names. Without passing through  him, you are a thief  and robber because you do not pass through the door way  (John chapter 10).  Meaning unless you are a Christian, you cannot gain salvation which come only through Jesus Christ as the doorway to the father. 

So Christian use any of the above radical gospel to attack or condemn other religious organizations that are not related to Christianity. That they will all go to hell if they do not come out of those religions.  

2.     It encourages criminal activities and also oppose the government social moral stand required in the society unlike other religious bodies through radical gospel which are quoted from the passage of the bible making Christianity become a radical religion.

Its world-wide spread outnumbering other religious bodies is based on the fact that it has become the fastest money making venture back-up by miracles, signs and wonders that attract members of other religious bodies. They have the best of religious music  - an entertainment forum for worshipers  unlike other religious bodies. 

They encourage criminal activities based on the fact that they no longer preach against sin unlike other religious bodies. The government effort is to combat  crimes in the society through punishment of law breakers  while other religious bodies supplement government effort by  preaching  against crimes through warring them of punishment after dead  and judgment day. While the radical gospel preachers   preach on GRACE because Jesus had paid the price of sin on the cross. So there is no need to feel guilty before God when they are in the church as they are  automatically righteous before God through the dead of Jesus Christ by his grace and you are free from the law of sin and dead and Jesus is their righteousness. Therefore,  some churches no longer preach about sin. So the more the churches are increasing in their numbers, the more criminal activities increased in the society.

Based on this development,  the government in those countries after analyzing all these factors restrict the  spreading of churches seeing Christianity as a radical religion capable of turning the society upside down in terms of social moral conduct quite unlike other religious bodies.

 In the above information, item 1 and 2 gives us some clues on why those countries restrict Christianity but accept other religious bodies. Now let me comment on item 1 and 2 above:-

Christians should bear in mind that Christianity was born during the reign of the Roman Emperors that were ruling the whole world and each Roman Emperor demanded to be worshiped as God the creator of the entire universe based on their believes. This is the reason why the Apostles and the rest of the Christians were preaching against and  projecting  the name of Jesus above all other names and not the name of the Emperor and Jesus is the door way to the father and not the Roman Emperors or their gods as a radical gospel which lead to their persecution and dead

Such radical gospel or teaching is not applicable to  our modern times  based on the fact that there is no King or President imposing himself on the whole world  to worship him as god rather they are free to worship in any religion of their choice provided it does not go against the laws of their countries in terms of social moral conduct and other illegal activities which are stated in their constitution. 

Ignorantly, Christians are still using the same radical gospel used by the Apostles to attack other religious bodies of the same or similar faith causing religious violence in several parts of the world and no longer preaching against crimes alongside with the government quite unlike the other religious bodies.  

Evidently, Ninety percent of all cases of religious violence are caused by Christians using the above radical messages and even insulting religious founders such as Prophet Muhammed and other Funders of religious bodies with the believe that they are fighting for Jesus. 

Now based on my own assessment and research, the Moslems are the closest religious body to me in Nigeria unlike the Buddhists’ and other religious bodies  located in other countries.  Like in the Middle East countries that are predominantly Moslems, Christians in those countries do not exhibit such radical attitude and preaching in the midst of the Moslems as they blend with them in terms of teaching and social moral behavior. 

In Nigeria, Christians in the North are far better than those in the South  based on the  influence of the Moslems who monitor  their activities as Islamic states. So there is competition among them in terms of social moral behavior quite unlike those in the South that are predominantly Christians where you see all manners of radical behavior and criminal activities based on radical gospel  which they hear in churches, satellite cable TV stations and in the internet. 

Also, let take India as an Example: India is predominantly Buddhist and Hindu nation  guided by their  traditional religious  believe in terms of social moral conduct.

Evidently, in the Indian film produced in the 70s and 80s you cannot see an Indian Actor and Actress kissing on the mouth as the whole world know it but today the story has changed. Indian Actors of the good old days are quite different from those we see today including in the musical industry. 

Consequently, we have stories of rape cases even in commercial buses based on the fact that as churches spread deep into India introducing radical gospel  messages, they came out in their thousands and be converted to Christianity first and gain freedom to  listening to radical gospel in those churches which has transformed the lifestyle of most of their youths who cannot go back to their former religious believe they now regard as satanic and demonic and regard Jesus as the only way to salvation;  You can now see a radical civilization as it happening in the Southern parts of Nigeria and in other parts of the world. 

These radical gospel are also  preached in the Satellite gospel television and watching the radical lifestyle  of those from other nations which they copy and practice in their individual countries specially in social media as predicted by Prophet Ezekiel of whom he wrote  “those who live carelessly in the Isles” (Ezek. 39:6). Some countries place a ban on social media and radical film shows and videos which would have negative impact on the citizenry and restrict access to bible and other Christian literature like China, Russia, North Korea and other parts of the world.  

THE ROLE OF ORTHODOX AND EVANGELISTICAL CHURCHES 

 

The orthodox churches were born out of the Pagan Roman Empire through the Roman Catholic Church which gave birth to the Protestant churches known as the Anglican, Methodist and others. The mother church being the Roman Catholic and the Protestant churches could blend with the societal religious believes, social and moral conduct like in the former pagan Roman Empire.  Since most part of the world were colonized by the West  who  introduced Christianity, they also introduced freedom of worship in different colonies including local language spelling and writing known as “vernacular” without any form of radical gospel to oppose other religion but preaching the real message of salvation as shown in the Hymn books which include evangelical messages through inspired songs. The most popular of all is the Sacred Songs and Solo (SS&S) written by Sankey.

 However, they preached against human rituals used in other religions regarded as illegal even by their Colonial Masters who are also Christians and also condemned the   killing of twins like Mary Sellessor of Calabar in  Nigeria  Some missionaries were killed in the processing of stopping   the barbaric act. They built missionary schools, hospitals, judiciary courts and brought new life to the rural communities. So they blend with the society in terms of  establishing good moral standard.   

Evidently, India had produced a great Saint from the Roman Catholic Church by name  Saint Theresa of Calcucuta   after several years of hard work in the Lord’s Vineyard even during the Colonial era when India was keeping up  their traditional religious believes known as Hinduism  and Buddhism abiding by their  social and moral conduct alongside with Christianity.   

But in the 70s and 80s as  envagelistical  churches spread into the fabric of the Indian society, with their radical gospel, making Indian to abandon their religious traditional believes to embrace Christianity since Jesus is the only way to the father, back up by miracles, signs and wonders, the story changed as they see Christianity as a religion of new civilization and those still in the old religion as uncivilized. 

In another development, in one of the television programme I watched named “Agatha” and elderly man invited as a Guess to discuss how the society of Nigeria could be changed in terms of social moral behavior,  he mentioned that in the late 70s one can open his  door  and sleep with his  two eyes closed till day break because there was no thief in the city of Lagos and the youths were surprised considering the radical nature of Lagos today full of churches.

This was made possible based on the fact that like Lagos and other parts of the world, the traditional religious group and the orthodox churches were playing  key role to combat crimes;  specially the traditional religious group were good at detecting and arresting criminals and placed punishment without physically arrested  by the traditional gods of the land and also preserved the virginity of young ladies before marriage. So there was sanity in the land apart from human rituals and witchcraft which was the only challenge as at that time and even now.  

 

Like in other parts of the world, Lagos was guided by three major security apparatus: The traditional religious group,  the Orthodox churches and the Government. But in the early 70s and 80s as the Pentecostal churches known as the evangelistical  churches troop into Nigeria through the Southern part of Nigeria with all manners of radical gospel back up by miracles, signs and wonders with easy style of worship  and musical entertainment, they began to wage war against the traditional religious worship regarded as demonic and satanic  and began to cast and bind them and as they are binding and casting  the more criminal activities increased as the criminals were free to operates as the gods of the land are no longer active to arrest criminals.

 So the whole security work load is only on  the side of the  government  and  is finding  it very difficult to combat crimes because the other security Agents such as the traditional religious leaders and churches are out of the system to combat crime and as many of those traditional religious leaders become Christians implied as given their lives to Christ as born again. The gods of the land now in protest  aid the criminals and as some church leaders  go to  the gods to acquire power to opening their churches.  So the entire security network has  collapsed as some of the church leaders are now Juju priest customers and can no longer preach against sin back-up by radical gospel of grace and righteousness of God through Jesus Christ. So no body is guilty before God as both the criminals in the churches and the Church leaders  are all righteous before God.

     

In another development, some members and Pastors in the Orthodox churches are being corrupt by radical teachings through satellite TV programmes, the internet and by attending interdenominational programme organized by radical preachers showing them the latest side of the gospel as preaching on sin is no longer relevant because we are now in the era of GRACE . So you cannot distinguish between Pentecostal and Orthodox churches based on the fact the Orthodox churches are losing members to the Pentecostal churches; So Some  also introduce their radical pattern of preaching, praise and worship as entertainment in order to retain their members. 

Consequently, some countries may allow Orthodox churches and restrict the Pentecostal churches in terms of teaching so that they do not corrupt their indigence with their radical teachings.    To be contd.
