At Axis of Episcopal Split, an Anti-Gay Nigerian

What’s so wrong with this?

In these days to have anyone to stand up and profess to adhere to the Bible is an oddity. When religions depend on the religions beliefs rather than having a rule to follow, in time become non effective. The question is what is the purpose of the Church, why does it exist? The only place you are going to find this out is in the Bible. Something must have final say. I sure don’t want a group of men or women deciding what I am to believe, or how I am to act.

The Bible for those who read it and believe what is communicated has demonstrated for millennia to contain profound wisdom and council to mankind. And all Archbishop Akinola is saying is that He basses his belief’s on what the Bible says. That is not hard to understand when you view his actions from a Biblical perspective. A secular perspective will of course lead you to have a bunch of misinformation. Judging Archbishop Akinola from some group or individuals non biblical rule, of course will generate suspensions and accusations.

Archbishop Akinola in describing himself as not being a “Self-seeking, self-glory individual, is demonstrating humility, yes. This will take time to see if he stays on course with this attitude. Time always tells the truth, we need to wait a little longer to see. I believe he is sincere for now.

His statement: “The more they demonize, the stronger the works of God,” I believe is accurate from a biblical perspective. He is saying I’m just the servant God is the Master and these are His works.

Secular society in my opinion always attacks those who are sincere in their Christian beliefs because they feel inferior, or possibly a sinner. I would mention that is not the Biblical intent. The Bible teaches that God loves the world, which includes everyone. The ball in not in God’s court, it’s in the person’s court who feels pressured. God has already done everything He needs to for all to come to Him in love.
