WHY FORMER PASTOR "MATHEW OYEWOLE" REVERTED TO ISLAM? & WHAT HE PASSED THROUGH AFTER HE BECAME A MUSLIM.



My name is Pastor Mathew Oyewole. I was a senior pastor from fountain life bible mission. I became a Muslim when i proceeded to an Advanced Bible school where they use Greek to teach to further my knowledge in the bible. I was one of those admitted into the school after thorough screening. On admission into the school, all admitted
students were seriously warned to keep whatever they see in the school to themselves. One day, i was studying the bible with a friend and we got to this verse: John 1: 19-25. And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him,



"Who art thou? And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No."



In our quest to know who was the prophet, we went to the school library to check the verses in a more detailed bible kept in the library. To our surprise, where they asked, 'John, ARE YOU THOU PROPHET?', We saw written “ARE YOU MUHAMMAD?” in the bible. We were so astonished to see the name of Muhammad in the bible & that prompted us
to go to a lecturer in the bible school
to ask
for the reason why Muhammad’s name is in the bible.



The lecturer said Muhammad’s name is in the
bible and he came after Jesus.
He said, the race of prophethood is like a relay race. He said without Muhammad, all efforts of the previous prophets would have resulted to nothing. The confession of the lecturer was a big blow on me. Many things were discovered in the bible school. On completing the bible course, i decided to denounce Christianity but not easy because of the enjoyment,
entitlement & agreement between myself and the church. I had in my mind that if i die as a Christian
after knowing the truth or hide the truth discovered from being known to the public, God will not forgive me.



To cut the story short, i dumped Christianity
to ISLAM. My conversion was a hell from the church that sent me to the bible school. They
planned to terminate my life,
The rejected christianity of former pastor is when he discovered Muhammad’s name written in a reference bible hidden in the library of an advanced bible school. The
Pastor embraced Islam when a lecturer of the
school confirmed the prophethood and
messengership of Muhammed.



When i became a Muslim, the Christian community in the old Benin state where i was serving as a pastor were so disturbed especially the church i was overseeing then. Before my conversion to Islam, i was one of the pastors selected in Nigeria trained and
sponsored by America to see to the downfall of islam in Africa starting with Nigeria under the leadership of Late Benson Idahosa. U.S spent a lot of money on us just to bring down Islam and that was when we embarked on aggressive crusade in Nigeria with printing and displaying of beautiful and gigantic
posters/ banners around the country. We
moved from one state to another but instead
of seeing the fall of Islam, it was Idahosa that died.
As i was saying,, when the elders of my church heard of my conversion to Islam, they were so worried. They plotted to kill me by pouring acid on me but one of those that loves me in the church came to inform me of the deadly plot of the elders in the church. I and my family left the house with all our belongings to Oyo state. I thought everything has ended but surprisingly, these elders with the support of CAN Benin chapter came to Oyo state with police men to arrest me. I was highly supported by the universal Muslim brothers under the leadership of Olanrewaju Adepoju, a very popular Ewi master then.



I was arrested and taken to Benin. [b]They filed a case against me in a court on the fact that I left christianity or their church after spending a lot on me by
sending me to a bible school without paying back.
The judge that presided over the case threatened that before the next court session,
i must have dropped my Muslim name and reverted back to christianity.
During the next court session, i used turban and immediately the judge set his eyes on me in turban, he was so annoyed and he
directed that my case should be called next. The judge ruling on my case, sentenced me to 3 years imprisonment without allowing neither my lawyer nor myself to say anything.




MY FIRST DAY EXPERIENCE IN PRISON.


I was sentenced to 3 years imprisonment without giving me the opportunity of defending myself. I was in the prison together with some people who were spending different jail terms. Among them was a Hausa man called Dauda and a man called Joseph aka Lion who was regarded as the King of the prison, he was very huge, fat and fierce looking. As i was locked inside the prison, the provost of the prison instructed Joseph aka Lion to deal with me. (This is just because i left Christianity to islam). As Joseph was coming to me, i started shivering but as Allah would have it, a senior prison commander shouted: "Lion, go back". He went back immediately and i felt so relieved.




INDIAN HEM WRAPPED WITH BIBLE

These people(miscreants) except the hausa man used to smoke Indian hem with copies of Gideon bible given to them courtesy of Gideon brothers or foundation. I can not say precisely where/how they got the Indian hem but surely, they smoke it in the prison then.



FROM A PASTOR TO ISLAMIC PREACHER

My imprisonment gave me the opportunity of preaching Islam to the inmates of the prison. My experience in the bible school was the main instrument of my preaching & by the power of the Almighty, fourteen (14) of them accepted Islam but then, i was still looking for what to use to prove the reality of Islam to the reverts. Allah crowned my mission with a wonder.




THE WONDERFUL QUR’AN

Don’t forget that there was a Hausa man called Dauda in the prison who always read the Qur’an. One day, the king of the prison, Joseph aka Lion said to other inmates of the prison that “Is it only bible we will be using to smoke’? As he said that, he went straight to Dauda to forcefully collect the quran he was reading. He tore the Quran & remove some leaves out
of it to smoke Indian hem. I felt so much disturbed with this action. Joseph used the leaves of the Quran to wrap the Indian hem. He put it in his mouth, brought out a lighter and light the Indian hem. He smoked it first and second time. Within 5 minutes of his smoking, we just discovered that Joseph could not talk, neither move and was just looking like a Zombie. As we stood watching what was happening, Joseph started shouting & defecated in his trouser. Joseph became a mad man. That gave me the opportunity of
intensifying on my preaching to the prison inmates and as i said earlier, some of them accepted Islam and i give glory to Almighty Allah.




NEW SONG OF THE PRISON

What happened to Joseph turned out to be the new song of the prison inmates. I became highly respected in the prison.



ALL GLORY TO THE ALMIGHTY

Join me to thank Almighty Allah for saving me from the hands of God’s enemies. My brothers and sisters, i am saying it with confidence and reality that Islam is the only religion God enjoined on all human beings.
This is a religion that covers all ways of life and a religion not named after anybody. My brothers and sisters, Islam is not in competition with Christianity and other faiths.

Islam is unique being the only faith practiced and preached by all prophets including the Lion of Judah (Jesus). This generation belongs to Muhammad and
that is in line with what Jesus (Eesa) said:


THE KINGDOM OF GOD SHALL BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU (ISRAELITES) AND SHALL
BE GIVEN TO A NATION (SAUDI ARABIA)
PRODUCING THE FORTH. WITH HONESTY, ISLAM IS
THE ONLY WAY TO SALVATION.



Please spread this gospel as hundreds of million of souls out there await this soul-changing script for transformation. Don't keep it.Spread it.

Hypocrisy Of Christian Association Of Nigeria

https://knowislam.com.ng/comedy-of-hypocrisy-how-can-led-christian-students-to-wear-church-gowns-to-school/

Emphasis on Public School.

Government should undo their confiscation of private mission schools. Its not like CAN is disturbing anyone to not wear Hijab in State and Federal schools.

Again, let them stop trying to force mission schools to be public schools.

I will like to know the Bible School that says this, I will have to go and talk with the quack of a theologian and probably crypto-Muslim or Pan-Abrahamist that was lying to him but that would be giving this story too much weight given that from everything here, it is quite obvious that this is one of those made up tales of miracles and persecution that make their way around pentecoastal whatsapp, finally having their Muslim version.

The Bible isn't like the Quran that very few people can read in Arabic, there's no sacred language for it and transliterations are also EASILY AVAILABLE. Here's a link to the original Greek of the quoted passage, transliterated word by word and there's no Mohammed cuz Mohammed and similar words are Semitic, they won't even appear in Greek by mistake.

https://biblehub.com/john/1-21.htm

But then again, I really shouldn't be doing this since it would make people that produce these tales cook up more believable ones, I should instead not be giving them corrections and be letting them to cooking up stuff so bullshit that Christians and Secularists that read their book can just laugh it up.

Last time I read on this was the issue in Kwara and when I dug deeper it was mission schools that the confused government wanted to take over but refused to either employ their own people or pay damages to the original owners so the missions continued to run their schools as the private institutions they always have been.

I served in real government schools in the middle belt, where most of the employees were Christian, there was no issue with Hijab, neither did any of my friends reply they had an issue with Hijab in those they served in. This isn't an issue in real government schools, this is an issue in missions schools that government is claiming are public.

most of the Hijab issues take place in the SW. So I can see why you aren't well informed. Yorùbá Christians are intolerant of Muslim neighbors. Recent federal ruling was based on permissibility of hijab in public schools and public places as enshrined in Nigerian constitution. Teachers and principals are assaulting and harassing Muslim students over hijab in public schools for years.

The schools you mentioned are not private but public. They were private mission schools prior to 1974. Since the 70s govt has taken over. This includes Muslim mission schools as well. So why are only Christians complaining?.

Intolerance!!!!!!

I find this claim hard to believe. Yoruba, Christian or Muslim are the most tolerant major ethnic group in Nigeria. And I am not Yoruba mind you but Yoruba are even more tolerant than my people.

Yeah, the government officially took those schools, without giving the builder any compensation, then didn't employ anybody but left the same missions there to run the schools because they didn't want to do their work and surprise, surprise, the missions continued to operate the schools as mission schools.

When the staff remain the same, the funding remains mostly the same(from Churches), the organization remains the same, the government just changed the sheet of paper on who officially owns it, is it a surprise to anyone that the rules remain the same?.

Abeg, they should do like they did in North and the rest of middle belt (Kwara is included in middle belt) and build and fund actual government schools, instead of churches funding it for them.

if you read this thread more your will see that Yorùbá Muslims and Christians are tolerant only if Muslims don't claim their rights or if muslims remain silent on politics and religion. So what they mean by tolerance is in as much as Muslim are cheated and smiling, attend church with their friends, family, listen to church prayers etc. Then Yorùbá people are "tolerate". But the moment muslims say they want to use hijab at schools and public places, they want to contest in election, they want to build Islamic banking, they want to created employment etc, then muslims are intolerant and they want to Islamize Nigeria. You get it?. This ongoing Muslim-Muslim ticket saga should already have you a clue. And besides, if you want to know who's tolerant and who is not please read 1994 Christian manifesto and pay attention to what they said thein. Sheet you read it, kindly return here and tell me Christians are there most "tolerant" people..

You can find their manifesto in one of my threads.

Example of tolerance is, Tinubu goes to church with his wife to pray. This is what Yorùbá called tolerance. But did you ever seen his wife, Remi Tinubu followed him to mosque to pray?. If his wife followed him to mosque Tinubu wood be called extremist and intolerant for not allowing his wife to practice her religion.

So there idea that Yorùbá people are tolerate is a scam.

Nigerian Christians & Intolerance & Playing Victim-hood

Deji Adeyanju is begging wailers to stop hammering on APC’s Muslim Muslim ticket.

He said that Muslims will see it as an attack on them and therefore Northern Muslims could vote massively for it.

Lol.

These noise makers don’t know that all they are doing are working in Asiwaju’s favour.

Nobody should advise them.

When they start seeing votes from Kano, Borno, Katsina, Zamfara, Kaduna, Kebbi etc their heads go quaret.

What is CAN after?

This week’s column will focus on Nigeria and the Christians Association of Nigeria (CAN). Theoretically, Nigeria is a secular nation, while in practice, it is a multi-religious state largely controlled by Muslims and Christians. CAN’s counterpart, the National Supreme Council is the apex body of Islamic authority in Nigeria.

CAN has been at the forefront of the opposition against Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari, quite more vocal than the major opposition party, People’s Democratic Party (PDP) accusing him of an Islamization agenda that does not seem to have manifested after about eight years in power.

What do the ~bastards~ want?. I haven't read this in full but my guess is they are going against this reconstruction because Islam is involved.

I'm not surprised if that's the case. They don't want anything good to be tagged with Islam. They don't want Islamic banking, ISLAMIC sports, Islamic housing and affordable real estate, Islamic loan forbearance, Islamic mortgage, Islamic welfare, Islamic children upbringing, Islamic NGO, Islamic orphanage homes, Islamic healthcare system, Islamic nursing home care, Islamic jobs, Islamic pantries, Islamic Islamic Islamic. They don't want the world to hear or see Islam tagged with something positive.

They want the world to hear ISLAMIC bomb!ngs, Islamic terror!sm, Islamic j$had, ISLAMIC backwardness, Islamic unsanitary region, Islamic fundamentalism, ISLAMIC camel urine grin, ISLAMIC Islamic Islamic Islam bomber.

Whoa, it has been a while and I asked around. The very fact that the reason that the wife can't be there with the husband in the mosque is because of Mosque gender segregation laws shows that you and the other Muslim that made that post are being dishonest.
