  Blame materialism as propagated by our useless university education. Just look at the proliferation of quack universities across the length and breadth of Ghana. Many of them are owned by the churches. How many of the churches have dared to build a polytechnic? None. This is not withstanding the lack of employment for university graduates yet these churches are still pushing these youngsters to go and reap where they never sowed.

  The truth is we fear death. The bible and its scholars are well endowed with knowledge but not the sycophantic suppoters

  "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness and all these things will be added onto you". This means christians will not obtain those earthly things until the Kingdom of God and His Rightousness are sought first. So what is hypocritical about that? No one can mock God.

  MOST PPL WHO ATTEND CHURCH RELIGIOUSLY OR MORE THAN 2TWICE PER WEEK ARE HYPOCRITES AND OFTEN CONFUSED. INFACT, MOST FOLK WHO ATTEND MY CHURCH DONT EVEN DESERVE TO BE THERE. THEIR PSEUDO, TACITURN BEHAVIOR IS SOMUCH LIKE MANY FOLK I KNOW WHO DONT ATTEND CHURCH AT ALL. THEREFORE, WHICH IS WHICH?
  
  I ATTEND CHURCH TO FELLOWSHIP WITH MY FELLOW COUNTRY MATES N TO PRAISE THE CREATOR FOR MY DAILY EXISTENCE. EVERYTHING ELSE THAT COMES FROM GOD IS EXTRA. IF I BECOME WEALTHY, FIND A PARTNER ETC...THESE ARE ALL BONUSES.
  
  YOU'D BE SUPRISED HOW PPL USE CHURCH FOR GOSSIPING. OH, THIS PERSON DIDNT PAY THEIR TITHES, OF THIS PERSON DIDNT PAY COLLECTION ETC...JUVENILE, CHILDISH POINTS OF DISCUSSION. AS IS EVERYTHING IN THEIR LIFE IS EXTREMELY KOSHER...THE ALL KNOWING, ALL MERCIFUL, ALL FORGIVING GOD SEES AND READS OUR HEARTS N INTENTIONS AND WILL RIGHTLY REWARD US AS SUCH....

  The credibility of the results of any research is based on PROPER sampling methodology.How can a sample of 520 individuals be taken to be a fair and accurate representation of a population of hundreds of millions of African Christians? This is a joke not a research. PEA BRAINS must avoid straying into areas they do not fully comprehend. AMEN

  He could be right, that is, sampling on fewer amount of people using the same method would yield the same results with a little margin to error.
  
  In the same vein, if the number of people questioned increased to 10000 your figures would be more emphatic if based on the same questioning and sampling methods. The difference will be very negligible.
  
  ON the other hand, it is not Christianity or religion that drives people to the hypocrisy we see in humans. It is the society, the culture, education and lots of other factors including mentality.

  Preach the word of salvation and leave the judgement of saints to God. Man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks into the heart.
  
  U who are without sin shd cast stones at those who have believed in Jesus . Remove the NONSENSE in ur ANUS first. Damn TRUMULIZED idiots .

  most people go to church to seek material favours from God; this is even clearly demonstrated by some of our material seeking modern day clergy(pastors). only God can save us!

  Secondly the Christian religion is becoming a joke here in Africa, we have all these African Churches that pose as if they are holier than the Pope??? the traditional churches have their hands stained with murder, slavery, rape, genocide, and torture among many other crime, yet they offer us salvation??????? and the African churches are only pretending to be better but are not. they are worse than the traditional churches bcos they continue the enslavement of the African started by the white churches. the African is a timid, ignorant but religiously churchgoing person, while the white man who brought the Christianity to us believes in science and is wealthier, living a better life and with all the resources at their fingertips.

  Baseless research judgement belongs unto no one than JESUS CHRIST alone
  Does church attendance empowers anyone to be become rich ? Japanese worship .. SHINTO, Chinese worships BUDDAH, Indians worships HINDU..yet economically and militarily superior than Africans.. Why single out and accuse Prophet T B JOSHUA'SCOAN Ministry ? Emmanual Owusu Ansah and KENNEDY OPOKU - YEBOAH ? Why single out SCOAN ? Are they underperforming ? Are the treating christians and SCOAN Followers with impunity ? MAY I CONFRONT U THIS WAY WITH FOLLOWING QUESTIONS ? Did you ever take good luk of yourselves before pointing accusing fingers on Christians and followers of PROPHET T. B . JOSHUA'S SCOAN CHRISTIAN MISSION IN GHANA , NIGERIA, SOUTH AFRICA, UK, CANADA, USA,SINGAPORE, etc ? And you two DAMN PRETENDERS what of your selves, your faith, your homes, your families and your professions, your relations others,? How close are you to JESUS CHRIST THE REDEEMER ? and what else you guys might consider yourselves to be or to pose ... how come pass judgement on others when you are EQUALLY FILTHY ? True believers or christians committed to JESUS and living by Scripture Standard have their mission and objectives. ETERNAL LIFE ...However you guys should note that true Christians (NOT CHURH GOERS) accept JESUS not to concern ourselves with eternal lives alone but.. TO ENJOY... divine blessings
  outlined in DEUTRONOMY 28 VRS 1 -- 14.
  JEHOVAH is creator and source of of material wealth and conveniences of better living and see nothing wrong
  for you so called investigative journalists to impose judgements on Christian faith ( perhaps due to your displeasure towards Prophet TB JOSHUA)
  judge not for you to be judged
  If you feel better to dwell in POVERTY
  or feels uncomfortable with journalism
  as profession .. better join form your own christian service and reap
  . STOP THE HATE JOURNALISM
  YOUR RESEARCH IS PROVES YOU WRONG
  
  Matthew 6 ; 33 insists ;
  SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD ... AND ALL OTHER THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO U
  "
  Obedience to God word, deeper relationship with the Father, Son and Holy Ghost ...manifest God;s Mercy.
  Therefore I OBJECT your assertion that Christians are the Epitome of HYPOCRISY ...... failed Research..
  What of MUSLIMS and ISLAMIC JIHAD ?
