- Latest Review: The Mermaid Broker by Sue Hinkin
I am baptized in the Orthodox religion and because of these false priests, to feel the church as the Lord's House is more difficult; particularly when the church turned into a commercial enterprise. It is possible that God is also a businessman? Over time, after considering other religions, I have discovered several similarities. Christianity, Islam, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Adventists, most of the religions have a thing in common: they believe in something, in someone. As we are all unique, perhaps the one we address God enters into our lives in different forms, under different names, for everyone's well-being. I imagine this divine form as only one out there, no matter what His name is, but with a whole aid department.He also advises them to leave if their church does not support biblical teachings. I like that he includes this point because it shows that he is aware of the infiltrating power of false Christian teachings
Indeed, inducing a pressure that you Must convert to Christianity is by far, the best way to help people. I also dislike Babalola's aggressive method, but I have the feeling that once you achieve a higher level of spirituality, you start seeing the world, the universe, and humanity from a different angle. Maybe after his revelation, he felt an enormous responsibility to illuminate people on this path and with this duty on his shoulders thrown a strong impulse on the readers. One thing is evident: people won't react positively when they're forced; perhaps with patience and gentleness, they could be guided.The only thing I dislike about the book is that it urges readers to become Christians.
Thank you for an insightful review! I'll take a look on Babalola's point of view.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on these two points! I agree with both of your opinions.
