“Is it nothing to you, all you who pass
by? Look around and see…” (Lamentation 1:12)
Does it matter to you that out of about 7
billion people in the world, there are only about 2 billion who are Christians
(including all kinds of Christian sects, both the born again and sinners?) This
leaves us with over 5 billion people who do not profess the Christian religion.
Does it matter to you, that there are over
1.5 billion Muslims, over 1 billion Buddhists and over 850 million Hindus in
the world? This does not include those who do not practice any religion?
Does it matter to you, that there are over
16,000 distinct groups in the world and over 6,000 which is above 1billion of
the world’s population are unreached, that is, they have no opportunity to hear
the gospel, without Bible, without any church, and have no access to the good
news of Jesus?
Does it matter to you that over 153,000
people die every day, and many of them may never have heard or accepted Jesus
into their lives?
Does it matter to you that about 30,000
people starve to death every day? And out of them, 8 are children. Even with
this we have enough to eat and waste. We can give our excess for missionary.
Does it matter to you, that youth violence
and suicide among young people is on the increase? Youths who are supposed to
be the hope of the future have lost interest in life.
Does it matter to you, that 6 children are
forced to live on the street every second and about 26 children become
prostitutes every minute; probably because of frustration and loss of hope. You
can tell them of Jesus, the hope of glory?
Does it matter to you that, there are over
1.1 billion people in Africa of which over 300 million are Muslims, aside the
atheists, traditionalists, sinning Christians and non-religious?
Does it matter to you that 14 persons out
of every 1,000 persons die every day in Nigeria?
Does it matter to you that every year
UNILAG admits about 7,000 students and among these you can see many who are
ignorant of life, naive, simple, vulnerable, immature and susceptible to the
deception of cultists and Satan’s trap of immorality, drunkenness and vileness?
Does it matter to you, that every Friday
night many of our girls are parked into buses to places where they are defiled,
deflowered, misused and mal-handled and messed up?
Does it matter to you that among over
4,000 staffs on our campus only relatively few are Christians, and 70% are
atheist, agnostics, antagonists and mockers? What influence will they have on
students and policies made in the campus?
Does it matter to you, that in our
hostels, very often we find young boys and girls vomiting and misbehaving
because they have drunk to stupor; because the influence of unbelievers are
greater than that of believers?
Does it matter to you that each year, the
university graduates thousands of students who do not have any desire nor
interest in God, and they end up filling the vacuum of worldly entertainers?
Does it matter to you that you have not
won a soul for Christ since you became a Christian?
Does it matter to you that you are ashamed
to tell others that you are a Christian? Is your identity known, do you witness
for Christ or do you pretend so that people will not identify you as a
Christian in your hostels and faculties?
Does it matter to you that the voices of
sinners, non-believers and vanities are so deafening you can hardly hear the
voices of believers?
Does it matter to you that lesbianism,
homosexuality, hyper-sexuality, sodomy and blasphemy is on exponential increase
among our students?
Does it matter to you that in eternity,
some of these students and staff colleagues will look at us with irredeemable
pain and anguish saying: you wicked person! You never told me of Jesus? If only
you told me?
Do the souls of these students and staffs
matter to you? Would you be blameless?
If it does matter to you, then you must
arise and do something. It is an emergency, it is urgency and it is expediency.
Many armed robbers, homosexuals, lesbians, prostitutes and social miscreants
are effect of lost opportunities of the past. Who know how many will soon join
these band wagon of helpless and hopeless souls to hell where we will lose them
forever except someone would preach to them. You are important to this task.
God needs you; discover a Waiting Neighbour, Develop a Winning Negotiation.
GOD IS COUNTING ON YOU!!!
