Christianity and Hypocrisy

I challenge any Apostle, Pastor, Bishop, and Evangelist or any Christian at all who is not guilty of this to quote me wrong. I am using the New Living Translation; don't even try to bamboozle me with those talks of NLT not being the original version of the bible because most of you don't know how the KJV nor the bible came into being. I happen to be a pastor who refused to follow the multitude, I have done a thorough research of my believe, and hey Mr. Preacher, you need to go find out the truth about your believe. You became a Christian because you were born into a Christian home, if you were born into a Muslim home you would have been a Muslim! So spare me all those lies, thanks.

Preacher man and Born again! Listen to the word of God from the bible by prophet Isaiah. (Isaiah 58: 3 to the end)

"We have fasted before you!" they say. "Why aren't you impressed? We have been very hard on ourselves, and you don't even notice it!"

"I will tell you why!" I respond. "It's because you are fasting to please yourselves. Even while you fast, you keep oppressing your workers (your employees, your house helps, your junior colleagues)

"What good is fasting when you keep oppressing your workers? What good is fasting when you keep on fighting and quarreling? (Hating, back-biting, feeling big, thinking you are the best). This kind of fasting will never get you anywhere with me. (God's word! Na God talk am, no bi ACK)

"You humble yourselves by going through the motions of penance, bowing your heads like reeds bending in the wind. You dress in burlap and cover yourselves with ashes. Is this what you call fasting? Do you really think this will please the Lord?

"No, this is the kind of fasting I want: free those who are wrongly imprisoned; lighten the burden of those who work for you (Oga na you bible dey talk to.. you.. you, Manager for bank, don't because you pay someone 10,000 and make him labor for 1 million). Let the oppressed go free and remove the chains that bind people.

"Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. (Chairman, na bible dey talk for here o!) Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help (Abeg, no bi talk this one o, na God talk am for inside bible)

"Then your salvation will come like the dawn, and your wounds will quickly heal. Your godliness will lead you forward, and the glory of the Lord will protect you from behind.

"Then when you call, the Lord will answer, "yes, I am here", he will quickly reply

"Remove the heavy yoke of oppression. Stop pointing your finger and spreading vicious rumors! Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon

"The Lord will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring" (Amen)

"Some of you will rebuild the deserted ruins of your cities. Then you will be known as a re-builder of walls and restorer of homes (Amen)

"Keep the Sabbath day holy (But how many Christians, pastors truly know the Sabbath day? ), don;t pursue your own interests on that day, (No work no hobbies) but enjoy the Sabbath and speak of it with delight as the Lord's holy day. Honor the Sabbath in everything you do on that day, (No gossiping, no hating, be good to people, be a giver, not to church o, but to people in need) and don't follow your own desires or talk idly (Hmm!, many of us are guilty of this)

"Then the Lord will be your delight. I will give you great honor and satisfy you with the inheritance I promised to your ancestor Jacob. I the Lord have spoken" ( Hmm, thank you Lord for this!)
