Syncretism is worldwide and it’s affect almost any two religion that meets. It is also perceived in the encounters of two worldviews. The belief is one of the challenges facing Religion in contemporary times. Christianity is faced with a stark reality that the Christian faith did not permeate the culture of our people well enough, thus there is such confusion and a mirage of different practices with professing Christianity. This can be seen in the lifestyles and beliefs of some Christians in Benin City particularly in times of difficulties in Life. Thus the aim of this research work is to examine the double allegiance of faith among some Christians in Benin City who interestingly are devotees of both Christianity and African traditional beliefs. This research work set to critically examine the factors that are responsible for persistent of religious syncretism among some Benin city Christians. This Research work will adopt a descriptive method for data analysis, personal interviews and library resources that will constitute the primary and secondary sources of data. This data will be collected from published and unpublished articles. This research work tends to offer dialogue as a way forward to achieve authentic spirituality in any religion one may opt for.
