D idea is to gradually familiarise kids with witchcraft, makes it appear good n even desirable.

Even as adults, its not wise to watch n read everything. Indiscriminate exposure to filthy literatures for example, familiarises u with sin, deadens your sensitivity to evil n gradually erodes your moral judgement n choice.

He who stays or live too close to d refuse bin, soon forgets about its smell.

Oh please!!!. People are getting creative and you're here talking about witchcraft. What has your country done to improve humanity with all your "religiosity", and non-cartoon watching??

You know the difference between those cartoons and the rubbish that nollywood churns out in terms of abstract movies/cartoons?? While they don't believe that such rubbish exist, and are only watching it just for the fun of it...Nollywood would rather wanna make you belive that such rubbish actually exists.

Like saying spongebob squarepants exists. TF??

I'm not a bible quoting christian, have never been good at it, but I'm sure my friends here can supply me with the scripture that says 'in the end times people will be lovers of themselves and not of God, selfish etc etc.'
Someone said the best trick the devil ever pulled was to convince man that he doesn't exist. He has done a pretty good job of that so much so that when things are happening in favour of evil around us we barely even notice it anymore.

Its easy to recognise wars and murders, rapes and outright violence. Its easy to recognise corruption on a large scale and the downfall of great leaders and economies. The thing that is more dangerous however is the subtle ways we are being 'preached to' into accepting evil and thinking there is nothing wrong with it. I have outlined below a set of things that have slowly and surreptitiously been placed into our daily lives that we don't even realise we are being brainwashed into believing such things are normal when they shouldn't be. By the time they are done when the mark of the beast is introduced and the antichrist announces himself, even christians will accept him whole heartedly.


1. The breaking of the church into denominations. Some people think this was good so as to make the gospel spread farther. I say a house divided on itself cannot stand.

2. Materialism in the church. Constant seeking of miracles instead of salvation, praying for a brand new car this year instead of purity of spirit, praying for your enemies to die instead of praying for them to find salvation. Tithing to make your pastors wealthy instead of tithing to help the people of God that are needy. Seeking positions in church for worldly recognition instead of looking for people who have a genuine thirst for the conversion and reaping of souls for the harvest.

3. The sexual revolution. Sex is suddenly nothing to be 'ashamed of'. Sex was never meant to be something to be ashamed of, but it wasn't meant to be public either. Sex is designed to be a private affair. The private parts are hidden by pubic hair and clothing because they are private. Now the more sexually perverse a person is the more he/she is considered to be exhibiting his/her 'freedom' . Pornography is everywhere, in our books, magazines, the internet, movies, even our kids are being corrupted with lewd images in their 'innocent' cartoons. Have you ever wondered why p0rn is so easily available? Its virtually free to browse and download millions of megabytes of porn movies now, not even clips. So much so that many of us cannot even recognise indecent behaviour when we see it in real life.

4. Cartoons corrupting our kids. This might sound laughable to you but keep an open mind for a moment. Look at the cartoons our children are being shown. Cartoons like 'adventure time' for example. Have you ever watched it? Of course not, you say; its for kids. I advice you to take ten minutes of your time to watch one episode and your will realise it is downright demonic. How about 'the adventures of bill and mandy'? Innocent right? Have you seen the recent episodes? In an episode of SpongeBob squarepants worms are seen coming out of his eyes! What's funny about that?


5. Evil is now good while good is evil.
There are new cartoons now that paint heroes in a bad light. Jack and the beanstalk---jack is now the thief while th giant was a friendly giant. Cinderella was actually full of pride and the evil stepmother was simply 'misunderstood'. Here's one that will touch you Disney watchers...remember frozen? That wonderfully inspirational movie that got every girl crying and chanting for female empowerment? The original story os from 'The snow queen'. And Elsa was no 'misunderstood' ice princess. She was a villain, a queen who would freeze little boys hearts and remove all love from them. 'Hans' represents the boy whose heart was frozen but now suddenly in this movie he is the scheming bad prince. Hmn.

There's a movie where angels are depicted as evil overlords and humans are supposed to rise up against them. Hmnn.

Same example can be seen in maleficient, Dracula untold etc etc. They are making it look like evil must have had a good reason for becoming evil. They are making a case subliminally and people don't even know it.


6. Identification numbers. Yeah, if we really need them why do they keep changing them? We have social security number, credit card numbers, bank account numbers; and now suddenly the idea that the numbers are too many is beginning to spring up. Why not one universal number for banks e.g BVN number? Have you done yours? Why not a number that will identify you uniquely as an individual and will help you transact business, receive medical care on emergency, help you get a job...it sounds reasonable right? I mean, its not as of some illiterate shepherds from 2000 years ago wrote a fairytale book predicting this exact same thing happening as a sign of the end times...any of these beginning to sound familiar?


There are more examples, you can add yours.

When the end comes most of us won't know it because we would be too used to it. For those few who notice the changing times and recognise it for what it really means, there is a question for you: Will You Be Ready?




With due respect, you wrote sense knowledge, completely unscriptural.

Never in my life have I listened or read this can of rubbish

One thing you forgot to know is that
Most people that does not indulge in Christianity or its practice tend to live longer,than those that sees it as a part and parcel of their life..

I don't listen to such craps like things or those connected to it..

The most annoying and foolish thing is that,I don't know if the moderators and others in charge have the mental thinking faculty that not everybody here on nairaland practise religion..

Before posting something or moving it to fp..
People needs to sit down and think,don't because it suites your way of life then use the rubbish to rub everyone face..

Insanity...The act of doing the same thing over and over again and expect a change..

Self bondage...The mental and physiological think that there is a mighty force or God in control of your life...

This piece of bullshit,is same reason why most islamic sects are busying killing and destroying innocents people today..saying it was directed by them from God,but Rather it from their teachers..

I can't live my life base on any rules written in a book..

The sole purpose of living is knowing your mission and helping your fellow humans by putting a smile on their face..sadly no Christian leaders/teachers preach. That today,they only teach that which suites their lifestyle and impose it on their fellowers..

Like the OP said, satan has succeeded in making people give u 21 likes for calling evil good and good evil.

The worse part of it is that satan deceives every follower of his and is himself deceived. Rev 12:9. Some people on social media are his direct recruits who have sold their souls, others want to joint the popular opinion and say what they don't know about or have verified.

Since God could not save men through their wisdom, He chose to save the world through the foolishness of the gospel. He has destroyed the wisdom of men, for His foolishness is wiser than men (1st Corinthians 1: 18-25)...A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE!

You really haven't said anything to back the op or refute my statement
Re: Small signs to show The End Is Coming by Setaje(f): 9:15am On Feb 01, 2015
I really don't understand people when they say there is no God. A lot of things have happened to me that has showed me that someone somewhere is watching. So many unexplained things. So many direct messages. If u don't believe in God. You are just a walking corpse. In fact u are dead and buried. Hmmmmmn


And yes I believe we are on the last days. The world has never had it this bad. The overall conclusion is that evil has become good and good has become you being stupid and lazy....

Yeah I get you. I want to know how my points are 'myopic'.

I have come to realise on this religious section that some folk just come to insult, nothing more. What did I say that pained you or offended you so much that you said my points are myopic if not just to sha insult me?
bro u said the right thing. This is truly the end. The bible also said that there will be wars and rumours of wars, nations shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. What are we seeing especially on CNN and Aljazeera everyday? Even this boko haram issues? My point is this, that guy is an atheist or one of those so called "WITNESSES" his is just here to either insult u or to to start one of those lies. I luv this post and my prayer is that we shall never be caught unawares.

Ishilove:

Absolutely lovely article. The two most worrisome for me are these ones above. Years back, after watching Billy and Mandy, my elder sister turned to me and said, "Ishi, do you realise that Grim is the spirit of death"? It suddenly dawned on me that this cartoon is depicting death as something 'fun'. Death can be tamed and turned into your playmate, as 'Grim' The Grim Reaper is portrayed in the program.

The cartoon is dark humour anyway, but I find it very inappropriate for kids. I belong to the Voltron/G-Force generation, where cartoons were cartoons, not these horrid, demonic Japanese manga crap they're spewing these days. (Ironically Voltron is also a japanese cartoon)

What of Courage the Cowardly Dog?

I always thought the cartoons were funny,but deep down I always felt a bit uneasy about the dark themes and subject matter. And it's getting worse each year that passes. For Billy and Mandy...hm, that cartoon is down right demonic.

As for good now evil and vice versa...oh boy, tell me about it! I watched Dracula Untold last week and although the movie is very entertaining, it left me uneasy and puzzled. What is their purpose for this movie? Why are they romanticising evil?? Anyone can google Vlad the Impaler, one of the princes of Transylvania (who Bram Stoker based the character on) and see how absolutely evil and disgusting this fellow was. The movie painted Vlad in a more romantic light, and at the end you find yourself sympathising with Dracula. Gross.

What of Vampire Diaries and Twilight? Since when did it become 'cool' to be a blood sucking demon? How is it possible to be in a romantic relationship with the 'undead'?? There's no such thing as a 'good' vampire, period!! It's this kind of twisted analogy that is making today's generation lack the fear of God.

There's another movie which I can remember the name. I think Legion or something. Rebellion is praised and God is depicted as wicked deity who does not have the interest of man at heart. An angel rebels against God and Arch Angel Michael is portrayed as an evil warrior angel who will kill everything that stops him from killing a certain lady in the movie. At the end God rewards the rebellious angel by giving him back his angelic powers despite his rebellion.

If I recall, rebellion and pride is what got Lucifer kicked out God's presence.

It's now okay to be rebellious and disobedient, right?

All throughout the movie my spirit was disturbed as I watched, and immediately it ended I deleted it from my list forever. These days I'm always afraid of watching foreign music videos because one can never be sure of what one is watching, not with all these demonic symbols they keep flashing at us. Nigerian music videos are not better, because although we don't have to deal with demonic symbology, lyrics and contents is ZERO. Trash. They're dumbing us down.

What is happening here is man is being sub-consciously programmed to be receptive to the changing ideals of immorality, rebellion and wickedness, and they're doing quite a fine job of it with all these brain washing programmes we're exposed to.
about the film legion, you are wrong. Michael rebelled against god to save the woman, her child and humanity. In the film god lost hopenon humanity and wanted to destroy it. Michael still saw hope and fought for it. In the end he saved humanity and he was taken back to heaven for giving god what he needs and notbwhat he wants. That's the story oya correct yaself. grin

Anyone please?

P.s. It's writing somewhere in the bible that the end will not come until the gospel of christ has spread to every corner of the earth.

I can't get the particular verse now.

Even from the days of the bible, they've been talking about the end time.

Well, cartoons are created basically to expand the imagination of kids. Aside from that, kids that watch lots of cartoons tend to speak English more fluently than kids who don't because most cartoons are featured in English and even as an adult you can learn some new words. Personally, I've gained a lot of knowledge from watching cartoons such as pinky and the brain, dexter's lab, spiderman etc. I have a friend who once came across the same equation he saw in pinky and the brain in his SAT exams. I really don't get why Nigerians always want to condemn cartoons as evil. Its plain silly to me. No offence
my brother i dont know how old u are , but if u are above 25 , i can guarantee u that the cartoons we watched in our days are different from the ones our children and siblings are watching now, cartoons like batman ,spiderman ,power rangers helped shape to the engineer i am now, but now its all shiite just take a few mins to watch disneyxd,cn etc

Maybe you should read your old testament scriptures VERY well. Read the parts were your God commanded human beings to be wiped out CONSTANTLY, while material things are preserved, then come back here and tell me about morals.

Heck, even that God must have been morally bankrupt to have loved material things so much more than his own creation. I mean, not even a parent can do that.

Lot wanted to give out his daughters to strangers to be gang-raped. Erm..can YOU even do that?? WTF??

Furthermore, I can't imagine more of such "abomination" happening presently in this verse:

Genesis 19:34.
"The next morning the older daughter said to her younger sister, "I had sex with our father last night. Let's get him
drunk with wine again tonight, and you go in and have
sex with him. That way we will preserve our family line
through our father."
Eww..disgusting! Makes me sick to my stomach just reading. It's the sort of thing christians read and quickly come up with the 'you have to be spiritually inclined' defense. But then again when you think their god was so amorous he had to sleep with another man's wife & had to cover up the deed with the immaculate conception story,the thinking of a typical christian begins to make sense.

What christians don't understand is that the world is never going to end. Your world ends when you die. The elite only put all those rules to keep the masses in check and as a matter of fact, there were more wars in the past and human beings will always remain human beings. Y'all are getting it confused because you now have access to information and get info on China in seconds. Bad things have always been existing because humans have animalistic traits. There's never going to be a time when there's total peace. The best you can get is your peace of heart.
