Who is OBATALA in the Bible?

The white man religion is not something to really elaborate because it doesn't offer anything to the African man except fear, lies and stories of how some dead people live their life.

The white man religion stole some concept from African Religion and turn it upside down.

Those practicing the white man religion always say OBA ARUGBO OJO, little did they know that they are referring to the GREAT ORISA OBATALA.

They are often used to words like ELEDA MI, ORI MI, OBA AGBALAGBA and many more.

OBATALA is the creator of all heads, hence called ELEDA

His Age is Un-quantified that he is referred to as OBA AGBALAGBA


These names were only affirming that OBATALA is the God they are referring to.

OBATALA's name is so many that they Christians mistake him for their God.

Op you are right ... In order to control people Christianity adopted the native names used by the indigenous people to worship thier deities and from there it became a thing.

Igbos call God - Chukwu

Yorubas - Olorun/ Eledumare
Hausa Allah
And the list goes on, now many pray to these deities thinking they are praying to God the creator and the madness extends far beyond the shores of Africa too. This was made possible becasue the people who brought Christianity are not interested in your salvation, instead they want to be able to control your mind and then at a point, they won't need to do much again, becasue you will automatically be the one conditioning those that come after you to conform. Hence the reason why poverty in all it's forms and religion are inseparable.

Who is OBATALA in the Bible?

There is just one Creator so the only way He can communicate with us is through a channel otherwise there will be contradictions everywhere.
So God called one man Abraham and through his lineage the whole earth will be informed regarding matters having to do with the true God, that's why the Bible has gone round the earth despite all the troubles by unbelievers.
You may choose to follow the gods of your own forefathers but note that no other god on this planet gave their worshipers any hope regarding the future!
If you want to know why i will tell you but these are the things the Bible God foretold and has come through in our own time.

[1] A child will be born among His worshipers and he will become the world's most wonderful counselor of all time! Isaiah 9:6
[2] A time will come when all the nations on this planet will want to know about the God of Israel! Isaiah 2:2-3
[3] Time will come when all other gods will be silenced as their worshipers won't have what to preach or teach about their gods! Psalm 115:4-8
[4] Time will come when worshipers of the Bible God will be known globally despite their simplicity, meekness and gentility. Matthew 5:14-16
[5] Time will come when people of all other nations will love to believe in what Israelites teaches about God! Zechariah 8:23
[6] Time will come when worshipers of all the gods will be carried away with politics and racism so uncontrollable killings will continue globally! Revelations 6:3-4
[7] But at that same time worshipers of the Bible God will be united and peaceful more than ever! John 17:22 compare to Isaiah 2:2-4
[8] Time will come when the worshipers of the Bible God will be fully informed on how to go discussing with their neighbours! Malachi 3:16; Matthew 24:14

Please can you tell me one promise made by your Ọbàtálá which adherents of this god are fulfilling everywhere today apart from begging with white clothes from one place to another!

They lie to yourself.

@MaxInDHouse.

So YHWH the God of the whole world decided to reveal himself thru a particular race? Yet, he claims to be the God of the whole world?

You see, this Abrahamic faith isn't for anyone who has the ability to think

See reasoning. You forget that in bringing you Christianity, "the people who brought Christianity" brought you a book and they taught you to read it, and now have so controlled your mind that you use the words that they taught you to freely express what is on your mind, "Hence the reason why poverty in all it's forms and religion are inseparable".

Try harder, dude. I have faith that you can.

A race of naked ignorant slaves in a garden of Eden where they tended the tree of the fruit of knowledge which only the Gods ate.

Despite all your thinking have you been able to settle disparities among yourselves and stop producing destructive devices to kill one another over politics while millions in your system of government are dying of hunger and malnutrition?

Ọmọ wisdom belongs only to worshipers of the God of Abraham!

No, I don't want to feel intellectually superior to anyone. I just want to debunk your rubbish!

Your point is that Christianity is "the reason why poverty in all it's forms and religion are inseparable", and that is a lie.

Every day we read on here about Nigerians who want to japa due to poverty in Nigeria. And where exactly are they going? To those same Christian countries that brought you religion and the English you communicate with but you don't see how that has enhanced your life and empowered you in the global world you live in today.

For your information, Christianity was forced on the ancient inhabitants of Britain, and for over a thousand years they too merely believed it like most Nigerians do today until their eyes finally opened and they learnt to write their own and now they are not poor.

thanks for clarifying your point now I understand you, now what I mean by religion and poverty are inseparable is this, the most "religious" people are the poor people. Go anywhere in the world and you will find the most religious people are the ones who suffer poverty... Religion is a tool to control the mind but spirituality that is a different ball game...

Christians and ignorance are like bread and butter. It is all in their bible but they can never understand. The stories of Oduduwa and Obatala Osere Igbo are the stories of 2 sons of the Creator. One was chosen to rule while the other unsurped power from the chosen one. The chosen failed his test and fell. This why it is called the fall of man. It is also the story of man and the serpent. It is the story of Enki and Enlil. It is likened to the story of Esau and Jacob. All are saying the same thing differently. Only knowledge can help you figure out the truth from what was given to you by the oyibos. They gave you a whitewashed version of our African stories. The serpent/unsurper is the one who rule the world. The world will only know peace when the chosen and true son of Eledumare - Obatala Igbo takes back his throne.

"OBATALA" IS ANOTHER SYNONYM OF OLUWA OLORUN OLODUMARE MEANING LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.

It is not true "the most "religious" people are the poor people", though I'd like to see what you mean by ""most religious".

Is the pope "most religious"? How about the Bishop of Canterbury? If so, they head institutions that are amongst the largest land owners in the world so I doubt they are poor. How about Oyakhilome, is he "most religious? Wealthy too, as is Adeboye. One supposedly "most religious" is even creflo dollar.

You see, if I give you a hammer and you use it to whack your hand, would you blame the hammer or your hand?

Same with religion. You either believe and tremble or understand and be as the gods.
