Christians
and Muslims are not living in peace because they don’t understand
themselves, the founder of Peace Revival and Reconciliation Foundation
of Nigeria, Pastor Yohanna Y. Buru has said.
He made this statement yesterday in
Kaduna while hosting Muslims who joined their Christian brothers to
break their fast which started yesterday.
“We are veiling the truth and not
unveiling the truth. We are not telling ourselves the truth, we must
tell ourselves the truth no matter what it will cost us, whether you are
Christian or Muslim,” he said.
He said the Christians do not know
Islam because the Holy Bible did not talk about Islam but that the Quran
have hints about Christianity, Judaism and the Bible.
“There was Islamic civilization in
this country for about 500 to 600 years before the advent of
Christianity. So, I want the Muslims to know that you are the ones that
will sympathize with Christians for not understanding you; you should
understand with Christians for not understanding you and don’t blame
them for not understanding you because they don’t know what you know,”
he said.
Pastor Buru urged the two religions
not to think or believe that a particular religion does not want peace,
saying even animals want peace.
