toba: who cares? when Muslim ladies told me that they can't date any man thats not a muslim. One even told me that immediately i convert to Islam, we can start talking according to whats written in the quran


May be Bishop Oyedepo being an ex muslim is just trying to give them (Muslims) give out to others

Hmmm, and can you marry a muslim lady?
Or just looking for one to useless.

I liked the answer of this German Muslim scholar gave when he was asked about terrorism and Islam : He said : Who started the first world war ? Muslims ? Who started the second world war ? Muslims ? Who killed about 20 millions of Aborigines in Australia ? Muslims ?? Who sent the nuclear bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki ? Muslims ?? Who killed more than 100 millions of Indians in North America ? Muslims ?? Who killed more than 50 millions of Indians in south America ? Muslims ?? Who took about 180 millions of African people as slaves and 88% of them died and was thrown in Atlantic ocean ? Muslims ?? No , and more recently who shot over 50 ppl in a cinema @ colorado? Muslim?? They weren't Muslims!!! First of all, You have to define terrorism properly... If a non-Muslim do something bad..it is crime(SMH). But if a Muslim commit same..he is terrorist... So first remove this double standard...then come to the point!!!

If it where an imam dat gave dis condition u all will b condeming his religion but alas its a reputable pastor and u guys are here defending him... i now understand why your pastors fly around d world in private jets why you guys pack urself like sandenes in MOLUE on sundays to go listen to ur smart pastors.... Very Pathetic...SMH

P:S; really like ur pastors, really wish i can be one so i fly around the world in private jets, slap anyone i feel like slapping and change beautiful wifes as i like....... Lolllllll

And if Islam is the true religion why do we 10 times more poor muslims. If we r to use material wealth to judge I guess atheism or agnotiscm will be the right one 'cos a good number of the world richest dont believe or doubt the existence of God or any god.

because Islam never promises any one wordly prosperity. And it has never been a yardstick for evangelism in Islam.

antitpiah:

I hope he is paying his taxes regularly because if he wants to make his own rule he better find his own land, his own electricity, his own water, his own security and hopefully he is remitting adequate tax to the govt as at when due.

I believe the university is "privately owned"
Bills for services rendered are with the institutions involved (PHCN, Water Board etc)
Taxes with the state and federal tax boards.
If he's in violation of any of these, those parties should handle it appropriately.

Why does everyone suddenly believe that wealth always brings happiness?

So what, if he refuses to share wealth with her? That's he's choice !!
For all you know, someone else from he's action can decide to give her much more than Oyedepo could.

The big diff between us and people from other countries/continents is that " THEY STAND FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVE IN"
irrespective of benefits/demerits. - AND THAT IS WHAT MAKES YOU GREAT.

The World is just a word
Life is a secret
Maybe some judgements are wrong
Maybe our job is to keep it
Maybe the Piano is a "race"
Maybe the truth doesn't have a face..................
It is all behind a smile.why can't we all just stop bashing other religions.let everbody do what they like.if GOD didn't want to test our faiths,he would have created us,having a single religion.please let's stop criticizing people based on religion.we will all die at some point n know the truth.at least till then,let's just be tolerant.

ekt_bear: This woman should cry out to her god. If her god is not strong enough to save her from penury, then perhaps she had better listen very well to her brother's advice, and consider choosing the God of her brother.

Or of what use is this god she serves if she remains in poverty?

Or does she want to benefit from Oyedepo's God while also serving another?
Abi o! Ask them bro.
Funny enuf, d busy man of God neva read all their useless comments. . .lol. Doesn't dat call for another concern by the idle commentators who do worse things to their siblings n parents?

So you are not a man of God any more if you attach conditions to the care someone asks for

If God, your creator had attached conditions to your existence, what would be your condition today?

Why are you so stupidddd? The school is on a land that belongs to the FG of Nigeri, not the FG of Oyedepo or Jesus. If the FGN says no discrimination on the basis of religion, so shall it be. Now if he wants to make religion a factor in the admission process, he should go somewhere else where the laws of the land permit such nonsense. As long as he wants to remain in Nigeria, it is illegal for him to discriminate people based on their beliefs.

I'm highly surprised you believe worldly wealth is a measure of ability or otherwise of a God.
In any case, the cousin that converted to Christianity is the poorest in our own family, with her husband. Yet, we didn't abandon her. And in all modesty, just 2 days ago, she sent me an sms for financial assistance and, as usual, I offered.

The biggest trick people fall for in this part of the world is this 'serve my God and become rich' preachment. I wonder how people fall this kind of things when an average common sense is enough to know that there are poor Muslims, just as there are Christians and ditto for financial success. After all, Abiola, richest man in Nigeria until his death was a Muslim, same for his successor, Aliko Dangote.

I remember when we were in the university, our Christian and fellowship-going friends made it look as if academic success is a function of their spirituality. Every semester, they wondered how those of us that were not just Muslims, but practising ones, trounced them in exams. I even remember one room mate that, when Adeboye visited our campus and prayer rains fell in the capacity-filled venue, all Christians that attended the event will make 5 point that semester. How lowly can a university student think!

My point is, it is no brainer that anybody can succeed in this world, in terms of material possession or some other possessions, irrespective of religious affiliation.

All this my God cannot make you poor is arrant BS to me. If you want to preach to me, go to the root of my belief, compare the basis, the foundations, the scriptures, the fundamental beliefs and let's compare notes on that. Not some tale by moonlight that I am poor because I don't worship your God.

You guys should stop this nonsense! Please!!! No religion is better than the other, so far we all worship One God! We all have our diffrt beliefs nd ethnics...but we serve only One God! Whether u are a Muslim or a Christian...it doesnt matter to God! What matters to Him is ur heart. A christian dat goes to church everyday whose heart isnt right before God will rot in hell, likewise a Muslim! God is Holy nd He doesnt care if u are a christian or a Muslim! All he needs is ur Heart nd for ur ways to be pleasing in His sight. Don't condemn any religion cause only God knows who is serving Him nd who isnt! Let Him be the Judge!!!

And there are no christian beggers on the streets of Nigeria. Those who use the Bible to beg in molue buses, market places and on the streets are unfortunate Christians abi? . Or its their sins that is that much, such that God can't forgive other than make them beg.

Confusionist nonsense.

If you are a Christian, you had better re-read your Bible and see what it has to say about the fate of non-believers.

Worship "One God" indeed.
