THE GREATEST BLACKMAIL IN THE HISTORY OF THE HUMAN RACE_ BY SOUL'E RHYMEZ

At different places yesterday, I saw crowds gather to watch a movie about the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

When I came online, I was seeing different posts from Christians; they post pictures of him on the cross with the tag "He did it for me."

I could not be more vexed but I was once such a slave. And just as it is not the fault of many people who believe the story, it was not my fault.

I was only a child when I saw that movie for the first time; I cried, and Jesus Christ became my hero.

I did not have to believe he died for me, even though I did, but just seeing that he was killed for doing good things drew me to him. That was the plan—to capture our minds before we gain control of them.

Well, I did not stop like many others and just believed whatever I was told. I kept learning more. I read the Bible from cover to cover twice and compared the story to my reality, and there was no correlation between the two.

My conclusion now is simple— *JESUS CHRIST DID NOT DIE FOR ME.*

I am not a sinner, so I did not need him to die for me.

How can I be born a sinner when I needed to have heard about him and rejected him to become a sinner?

I found that the story of Jesus Christ was a subtle chain and whip to continue to enslave Africans without them noticing it. The method is so effective that Africans submit themselves to slavery. 

Many African kids who know about the story of Jesus Christ know nothing about the stories of the likes of Mandela of South Africa and Patrice Lumumba of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, who are the real saviors of Africa.

We don't tell their stories to our children because we have been made to believe, through these imported religions, that all Africans are evil and need Jesus Christ and other similar religions to be holy. 

Jesus Christ only cared about the people of Israel. He was their savior, not the savior of the world.

He once compared a woman to a dog for wanting to enjoy the same benefits as the people he came for. That's who Africans call their Lord and Savior. What exactly did he save you from? 

Did he come to Africa?

Did he show himself to our ancestors?

How could he love the world so much yet stay in one place and send people there when he could have appeared to them himself as the almighty that people say he was?

Patrice Lumumba was more to Africa than Jesus Christ was to Israel. That guy probably did not exist.

If the world wants to talk about people who saved the world and installed justice, they should talk about Mandela of South Africa. We should sell the story to them like they sold the story of Jesus to us.

Mandela is more of a savior of the world than Jesus Christ, if the latter were anything close to it. All he sought was justice, not just for the blacks but also for the whites in South Africa. Jesus Christ did not do half of that.

You talk about heaven. You have been deceived. How can someone who cannot save you from oppression in this world or give his life for it ever give you a safe passage to a heaven?

He wants you to continue suffering here and die. And what do you do in heaven? You live on the street of gold and sing praise to him forever. That, to me, is boring. It means his heaven was designed for gospel singers only

The rest of us, even the singers of other genres, will find it boring.

And the streets of gold? Can I sell the gold and go and enjoy the money from it my own way, without having to sing to a god when I do not feel like doing it? Of course not.

I have to sing praise to a narcissistic god all my life and not have time for myself. I do not want to go to that heaven! That's another level of slavery, not enjoyment.

I am sure your religion leaders know that too; that's why they make themselves comfortable here instead of preparing for heaven.

How can a man like Oyedepo, who can control his morons to give him their life savings, and they will do it, now go to heaven where all he does is sing to a god? Does he even know how to sing? Their actions show they don't believe in your Jesus or care about him and his heaven; it is just business for them. 

All these things do not make sense, but you cannot dare to question them because you are scared of going to hell.

Did I hear you say you love Jesus Christ? 😃 Spit it out and stop lying! It is possible to fear what you have never seen or experienced, but love does not operate like that. You don't love Jesus; you just don't want to go to hell! 

However boring it is to sing praise to a narcissistic messiah all your life, it is better than to burn in hell forever. That's your stance. Well, you don't think you deserve better because, after all, you are a sinner from birth, doomed for hell before Jesus came to save you. 

So, dear, you are driven by fear, not love, and you are putting that into your children because you fear for them if they don't accept it too. 

The story of Jesus Christ dying for your sins is the greatest emotional blackmail ever invented. They make you feel guilty for something you know nothing about and tell you that if you don't accept it, you'd spend eternity in hell.

The thought of eternity in hell kills your reasoning ability and evaporates the strength of your personality. Fire is a terrible thing, and to burn in it for as long as you live, which is not even possible, kills your imagination. All you do is just believe and do whatever they tell you. 

You are so scared that you cannot see that a person can't burn forever. Okay, they told you your God is all-powerful and can do that, yet he's not powerful enough to give you a glimpse of what you will enjoy in heaven as a motivation to make you want to be there.

He's only powerful enough to show you hell here and make you go into a worse hell than this if you do not accept him, and you call it the greatest love. Is it not funny?

I will rather walk straight into hell than worship that kind of God.

You should start thinking. Think about it. Think! Ask questions! Don't just believe.
