President of Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle Johnson Suleman has shared insight on the effect and difference between religion and spirituality. He stated that religion is more of emotions while spirituality is connected to scriptures ( The Word of God ). He also said that some persons deliberately involve themselves in wickedness and end up carrying the Bible. The clergyman also gave a familiar illustration to buttress his point.
In his words, "Religion enslaves you, religion gives you commandment, religion is emotional, it is tied to your emotions but spirituality is tied to scriptures. Many people are bound by religion, have you not seen them?
"People who are deliberately wicked, after wickedness they'll hold Bible - you oppress people, cause problem, cause catastrophy in the country, you changed Naira Note and then you're coming out of court with Bible, you'll still go to jail! - You hold Bible - People died.
"That's religion, God does not empower wickedness, you cannot treat people like that because you're trying to score a political point, you're trying to oppress - people died, now you're coming out of court with a Bible - massive Bible, bigger than the one pastors hold. You think the bigger your Bible, the bigger your forgiveness of sins?"
