Does she preach at an appropriate moment or just randomly like those people who start in public transport?

I hope she finished the questions the tutor set for you people before she started the preaching Smh
It was before we had the class, everywhere was noisy and she requested for decorum to share the word with us

Oyibo have their own paganism which influenced the way they practised Christianity and brought it to the world.

That does not make Christianity "oyibo traditional religion". It only means we should be objective when considering which parts of our culture contravene Christianity and we should resist the temptation to throw our custom away due to inferiority complex.
What is the name of their paganism.
The thing is this if you don't get it yet.
Christianity is their paganism.
If you know what paganism means then we don't need to fight.
A Christian, Muslim, hindu, whatever Igbo Is confused.
If not you will be just IGBO.
Christianity is Europe's paganism UNIFIED. since you want to throw in the paganism stuff.
What has that got to do with me ad you who are not Europeans?
Why do you need a European pagan God Tobe saved as an igbo person?
Does it make sense to you?
What did your fathers of 5k years (when Christianity did even exist) pray to?
Has European paganism made you and me any better?
What is omenala / omenani?
If you define omenala / omenani for me I will know how to explain this concepts to you...

You dont get it; there is Roman, Celtic and Norse mythology and pagan practice that influenced the Europeans and in turn influenced us when they brought Christianity

That doesnt make the message of Jesus Christ wrong

Modified: Even though, its still inappropriate. She shouldnt force herself on people; if shes so desperate to share the word of God, she should set up a stall on campus and invite people to listen to her there

Our course mates don't like her because she is the odd one and mocks her anytime she preaches in class.


Why must she preach in class? That's spreading The Word by force..... the people in the class have no choice... they are forced to listen to her.... why wouldn't they not mock her and try to shut her down? If she continues they would soon give her a beat down. If she wants to preach.... she can do so by the roadside... in an open space... where people are free to stop and listen or keep it moving. What next for her?... entering people's homes to preach?... then claiming she was prosecuted for preaching.... just like the early prophets?

I have a friend, who from her lifestyle, I know is born again. She was initially like me, religious but not saved from sin. Then she gave her life to Chris and since then, it seems she made new enemies. Our course mates don't like her because she is the odd one and mocks her anytime she preaches in class.

I, however, have been challenged by the new life she has. I've watched her grow spiritually and i want that Christ-like life for myself also.
Hence, i summoned courage to ask her how she remained in the faith as I have been besotted with rising and falling. Then she told me something.

If you really want to be saved and remain save you have to pray, not because of the fear of hell but pray because you desire a change in your life. You foremost have to crave a righteous life and pray, with faith,for forgiveness with this intention.
I got the message alright but I did not act on it.

My prayer for repentance have always been centered on the fear of hell, which i am 100 per center sure exist.

But God in his infinite mercy showed me a dream reiterating everything grace said. He showed me how to pray this prayer, which i found myself in this dream praying. I noticed that after the prayer, I felt the joy,peace and calmness i have always craved for and heard other people testify of.

She should stop disturbing people with class preaching. Christian's Hate giving people their space.

U are just 100% sure that hell exists, that doesn't mean it exists. grin

Someone is spreading the word of God and you are mocking her? I pity those classmates.

I also pity the girl if she lets the mockery get to her. Those who doubt the presence and the power of God are just ignorant.

U think evolution led to the perfect planet capable of producing life, perfect distance from the sun and oxygen for life, the only planet with life and u think it just happened like that? grin

I no longer argue or try to convince atheists, they should wallow in ignorance, so quote me with doubts and be ignored. tongue

Oga school is for education, it isn't a church. Christians enjoy invading other people's privacy.

Yes, because I don't understand why one would see anything wrong with another Christian preaching in class during FREE PERIODS. Just like someone said up there, it all depends on what the preacher is saying. The early Christians spread the gospel by going to different places, including people's homes, and they won souls by doing that. If you were a Christian, why would you see anything wrong with that?

How does death and afterlife being a mystery ultimately disprove the existence of hell?
Does the fact that different religions exist exclude the fact that one of them may be right? Have you sought after the truth?

That's good. I would mock anyone that goes infront of the class to preach too. There's a time and place for everything, and a lecture hall is not the place to preach or pray. Even if you're not having classes at that moment, people might want to review or copy their notes, or study, or just relax before the next class. Nigerian Pentecostals feel they have the right to invade your space anytime they want to preach bullshiit. It's uncivilized, inconsiderate behavior and when you question them about it, they act so entitled. Can you imagine if Muslims behaved the way Pentecostals do to preach to anyone they meet in school, in public transportation, or wherever?

Preaching in class? How is that right? In class for goodness sake! A class room is for academics not religion. People of different faiths are there, respect that. Y'all overly religious people are the problems of religion.

What if you're not a Christian? What if you belong to a different denomination of Christianity that believes different things?
If you want to preach to people, hold crusades and invite people to attend. Or you can approach people and request to speak with them (like Jehovah's Witnesses do) and if they acquiesce, then you can share what you wish with them. Don't invade people's private or public spaces without their consent to start shoving your "word" down their throats. It's a very bad, very uncivilized behavior that Nigerian Christians - especially Pentecostals - have.

Over 10,000 religions exist and each of their adherents believes that only theirs is the right one, nothing special.
