Abstract
Contemporary Issues threatening Christian faith in Nigeria is a real concern facing the church today. When properly addressed it will help in no small measures to eliminate the tension and fears threatening Christian faith in Nigeria. This article presents various critical issues that are salient to Christian faith such as postmodernism, reproductive technology, terrorism, Homosexuality, Ethno-religious crisis, tribalism and the like. This write up discussed these current and disturbing issues especially as it affects Christian faith in Nigeria. Many Christians’ faith are waxing cold and are be clouded with doubts and despairs. The unfortunate thing is that these challenges should have strengthened Christian faith but it turns to divide the church and creates a lot of frictions and antagonistic spirit among believers in Christ in this country call Nigeria. Sound teaching, preaching, unity among Christians may solve the problem to Christians’ faith and may be the best solution to the terrible predicament of the church in Nigeria where it finds itself in this messed. The Biblical doctrines that serves as strongholds of Christianity are been gradually disappearing from the Centre-stage, or they are made to become either relative or subjective truth to make sense to the modern minds. Normative truth is fast drowning in the sea of humanity come of age”. The Christian faith must be strengthened before Christianity may see the light of the day in Nigeria.
