See some reactions to the post below;
@CJtwittime – You forgot to add the ultimate fear of village people. Some go to the extent of tearing families apart with “the enemy of a man is a member of his household”, suspicion, distrust and …suffer not a witch to live shows up suddenly.
@luiz_peetha – Not just in church but in schools and society in general. It’s ‘read hard or fail in exams or life’s. ‘Obey the laws of the land or go to jail’. ‘obey the laws of God or go to hell’.. fear has always been a control mechanism.
@Igariga1 – It’s not their fault, it’s ours that have chosen to remain in “mentality slavery”. Paying your tithe and sowing seed is all they care for. Sothat fear does a lot to them. They can’t preach without it.
