This Morning, we published an article soliciting for funds to see to three cases. AlhamduliLlah, we have successfully gathered the required amount.   When that Revert sister informed me that she forcibly apostated because of 12, 000 naira, I told her...

Click here for previous session     Similarly, why should humankind trust its salvation to any of the gospels, considering that they are of unknown origin and authorship? The Jesus Seminar is perhaps one of the most objective and sincere attempts of an ecumenical council of Christian scholars to determine the authenticity of the recorded acts and sayings of Jesus. Yet their methodology involves casting votes! Two thousand years after the ministry of Jesus, nearly two hundred scholars are formulating a collective Christian opinion regarding the reliability of the quotes and historical reports of Jesus by casting colored beads. For example, as regards the reported words of Jesus, the definitions of the bead colors are as...

Click here for previous session Just as Arab Christians identify God as “Allah,” and just as the Bible employs ther royalplural both in pronouns and in the proper name Elohim, Western Christians can  adopt the same practice without compromising their creed. But faith need not depend on such issues, when there remains a more relevant point to ponder: Regardless of His name, how does God command mankind to understand Him? Understanding of God Those who agree with us may not be right, but we admire their astuteness. —Cullen Hightower   The Jewish understanding of God is relatively concrete, despite the vast differences between Orthodox, Conservative, Reform and Hasidic Judaism in other matters. Throughout Judaism, the One­ness of God...

Click here for previous session       Pope Gregory IX instituted the Papal Inquisition in 1231, but couldn’t stomach the sin of torture. It took twenty years for a pope to shoulder the responsibility and, in the height of irony, that pontiff took the name of Pope Innocent (cough­cough) IV. In 1252 he authorized torture with the papal bull Ad extirpanda. 95 However, some of the clergy must have wanted to get their hands dirty, up close and personal. To accommodate such lofty Christian sentiments, “in 1256 Pope Alexander IV gave them the right to mutually absolve one another and grant dispensations to their colleagues. With this legal and moral issue circumvented, one inquisitor could torture and...

Click here for previous session     Exhibit #2 — Scriptural Predictions The Old Testament predicted the coming of Jesus. It also predicted the coming of John the Baptist in the book of Malachi. More importantly, many Old and New Testament references to a final prophet do not match the profile of either John the Baptist to the words of Jesus, is a person to conclude that Jesus had a pre­human existence? According to Jeremiah 1:5, so did Jeremiah. According to the Islamic religion, so did all mankind. Next, is a person to draw a parallel between the “I AM” attributed to Jesus and that attributed to God? Once again, the foundational text pokes fun at the translation. Jesus is not recorded to have said “I AM” in capital “makes me look like...
