“Jesus Didn’t Die for Our Sins”: Oba Solomon Stirs Up Debate
Nigerian social media preacher Adelana Adekunle Solomon, known online as Oba Solomon, has sparked an intense debate about the purpose of Jesus Christ’s death. In a video that quickly went viral, Oba Solomon questioned the traditional Christian belief that Jesus died for the sins of humanity.
According to him, the crucifixion of Jesus was not an act of redemption but a punishment for wrongdoings he committed.
In his bold statement, Solomon claimed, “Jesus didn’t die for our sins; he did wrong and was punished.” His words have naturally ignited a flood of reactions online, with people both agreeing and disagreeing with his take.
Oba Solomon isn’t new to stirring up discussions online; he previously commented on music producer Don Jazzy’s large donation of N100 million to VDM’s foundation, so his approach to challenging religious beliefs didn’t surprise his followers.
Reactions poured in from all corners of social media. Many mocked Solomon, saying his views were uneducated or overly critical of Christian teachings. Some commented with humor, like one user, alvinmilli088, jokingly said, “OBA Solomon don go smoke dry pawpaw leaf.”
Others used the opportunity to critique how African followers of Christianity seem dedicated to a foreign narrative rather than focusing on their own cultural roots. User “macmoneybrother” shared his thoughts, noting, “We Africans love someone else’s history more than ours.”
Some agreed with Solomon’s challenging perspective, raising the broader question of whether mainstream religious stories should be re-examined. Yet, others were outraged, seeing his comments as blasphemous.
User by the name oluwabsa commented that people sometimes don’t realize when they cross the line, and the debate raged on with voices both for and against Solomon’s view.
The debate Oba Solomon stirred with his bold statement shows how religious beliefs can ignite passionate conversations, especially when an outspoken personality challenges long-standing narratives.
Solomon’s comments are clearly divisive, but one thing’s for sure: he’s got people talking. Whether in humor or anger, his message has struck a chord across social media, giving people something new to debate.
