Freethinkers Need To Hear This: Apostle Constance Friday's View Of Free Thinking by reallifegospel(m): 11:10pm On Apr 25
Greetings beloved readers across and beyond, welcome to this article. Today I want to talk about a new movement coming up and out of the large number of religious believers and followerships here and there. I want to address a few things they do that needs clarity.
A new group of people have emerged recently from amidst the teeming crowd of Christians across the world.
In Nigeria, it's almost shocking to the dedicated religious folks how serious they are. This is because it's quite novel around here, in fact they've formed strong movements and they trend on social media a lot.
These Folks are called the freethinkers.
Is their purpose of existing to check the excesses of only the Pastors and of various religious clerics, or can they spread the scope to corrupt politicians and the activities of the clerics of other religions such as Islam, African Traditional Religion, Bhuddism, etc?
These group of individuals however only love to attack Christian Clergymen much more than they do to other religions.
The Christian Clergymen and women are punching bags of some sort for exhausting their anger and bitterness over issues or matters they won't disclose.
You barely hear them attack the activities of other religious clerics, or politicians obviously out of fear of what repercussions they could get, but they attack Christian Clergyman freely and limitlessly because Christianity is a religion that preaches about forgiveness and about turning the other cheek.
If they turned these attacks on corrupt politicians as much as they attacked clergymen and women, maybe the intensity with which they sandblast their targets will cause the corrupt politicians to sit up and lead well. I want them to try that if their intentions are very genuine.
The way they generalize their attacks would make you think every Christian Clergyman or woman on his or her feet does all the wrong things they strain at.
Jesus Christ calls this act, the act of straining at the gnats.
Also the act of defamation,
some or most of these folks don't know when they step beyond boundaries.
The question now is are these so called freethinkers free of their own sins and shortcomings while they exhaust all their coarse sandpapers on Christian clerics?
I'm not saying that the things that are actually wrong which they're pointing out are to be ignored or amendments abandoned. No our various clergymen and women should try to apply some necessary amendments and adjustments.
However have it in mind that the best of man is still man.

Not all clergymen or women are as bad as these folks make them look.
Corruption, manipulation and all kinds of things that these freethinkers accuse us of are just out of the solar system.
And if you guys notice any similar corruption and manipulation amongst the Muslim clerics, and traditionalists, feel free to attack them publicly as well.
After all you are freethinkers.
Remain Blessed!
