THE SALIENT POINT

Calvary greetings guys and i say happy sunday to you, i know or hope many of you are already heading to church or in church already so would see this after service... however i just wanna share something with you all and i hope it causes us to think deeply.


Nigeria is host to the largest church auditorium in the world
Nigeria is also host to One of the largest Congregation in the world.
Majority of Nigerians attend one church or the other on Sunday
Nigerians majorly are a very religious lot.
Nigeira has the largest number of Penticostal Pastors in the world
Nigeria hosts some of the richest pastors in the world.
Nigerians are London's biggest spenders
                    Yet
Nigeria is one of the most corrupt countries in the world
Nigeria is becoming home to some really mundane practices
Boko Haram has been having a field day
The Standard of living for most people doesn't seem to be improving
Nigerians are some of the poorest people in the world. 
Crime rates are on the rise in Nigeria daily



The Salient Point...
Of what use is our salvation if we can't impact our world?
We go to church religiously every sunday and yet it seems that is all there is to it.
how about if we decided to take a different approach? what is we stopped restricting ourselves to those sunday sunday gatherings in massive cathedrals, and also added some community development initiatives? personally i mean. what if we stopped dusting and bringing out our bibles only on service days and actually begin to show love to our neigbhours everyday?  What if we began to reach people not only with the written word of God but with the evidence of obedience to scriptures? 

don't get me wrong, i love going to church and fellowshipping with the brethren(i even work in church so i guess i pass on that point) but the salient point is, if we restrict ourselves to fellowshipping with believers, who will show love and minister to that area boy? Remember the area boy you did not reachout to with God's love becomes the potential armed robber or election thug tomorrow.
Let's not just play church, Let's become christians.(Christlike)

Inspiration is the gateway to transformation
