God Bless the Nigerians


What is the common denominator in the following locations?
* Nigeria *Zimbabwe
* Kenya * Jamaica
* Tanzania * Ukraine
* Ghana * England

Answer: The largest church in these nations is pastored by a Nigerian!

Perhaps the American Church could learn a lesson or two from our brothers and sisters in Nigeria about the meaning of Acts 1:8.

O.K. -- they're all Word of Faith Pentecostal -- and those in the broader evangelical camp will likely look down their noses and "dis" (disapprove with disrespect) their inadequate theology and excessive practices.

That reminds me of D.L. Moody's critic who said, "I don't like your method of evangelism."
"Oh," Moody replied, "and what is your method of evangelism?"
"I don't have one." said the critic.
"I like mine better than yours." Moody responded.

Instead of carping and criticizing, we should learn a thing or two from the Nigerians about evangelism, revival, and reaching the masses.

Could this be a solution to the rapid spread of militant Islam?
