Ooja, known for her thought-provoking statements, encouraged followers to reflect on their motivations before entering into spiritual debates.

Nigerian actress Sharon Ooja has opened up on why she doesn't argue about religion.

This is as she encouraged her followers to reflect on their motivations before entering into spiritual debates.

According to Ooja, it’s essential to examine one’s intentions and consider whether their participation is driven by ego or a genuine desire to advance God’s word.

She wrote: ”As I’m growing in my walk with Christ, I’m learning to tame my tongue, and the urge to have baseless religious arguments, that are more from ego than the advancement of the word.. before you get involved in any spiritual /religious argument, ask yourself is

this for me?and my ego?

“Or is this for the advancement of the word? Because God doesn’t need any defense, trust mel!!!

“He doesn’t!! He is mighty to savell! He is God all by Himself. There is something my therapist taught me… she said when you feel the urge to respond to something … pause and ask yourself, why? Who? And what? If you understand these three questions.

“You’ll likely keep quiet … because most people will only argue and respond from their level of reasoning,their mental state,their spiritual maturity, their frame of mind.…

“And all these things have nothing to do with you or the kingdom of God……. just read your bible and fellowship with the Holy Spirit ,so nobody will confuse you a moral of the story i avoid religious arguments lol you’re right I’m wrong,” she wrote on Instagram.
