"My life has been so peaceful since I stopped going to church, and here are my reasons."

He proceeded to list some things he has started to experience since he made the decision.

His statement:

"No. 1, I no longer pray unnecessary prayers. Sometimes you go to church as a Christian and they'll give you list of prayers that you're to pray. Pray for witches, pray for coven, pray for every spirit of stagnation, every spirit. Unnecessary prayer points."
"Prayer points I don't need, I no longer have to pray them. I don't pray like that anymore."

He continued in his post as he spoke about dreams. @hopeandgrowth_ said in the TikTok video:

"No. 2, no unnecessary fear for bad dreams. They'll tell you that if you dream and if you eat in your dreams, or if you dream where you dey play with woman or you dream. All those things are bad dreams, evil dreams. If you dream and you see masquerade pursuing you in dreams, that's a bad dream. Now I don't care which kind dreams I dey dream anymore,"

"Now, I no dey fear. If you like give me chicken and chips in my dreams, I go chop."
"No. 3, no unnecessary guilt for not paying tithe or offering."
"They made us believe that if you don't pay tithe, you're not going to make progress. If you don't pay it, your business will not grow, if you don't pay tithe you'll not make more money."
"For 4/5 years I stopped paying tithe, I make more money now than when I was paying tithe in church. I give now at will. If you want to give to church, I give to church at will."

After he mentioned the third reason, @hopeandgrowth_ recalled an experience he had with a pastor when he informed the pastor about an application.

He said:

"Imagine what a pastor told me when I want to apply for something. He told me if I want that thing to succeed, I should come and sow seed."
"I told him clearly, no, me I no dey sow seed."
