I liked your comment after reading the first sentence I didn't bother to finish the rest
NtoAkwaIbom:
Africa will continue wallowing in the dark untill we drop our religiosity.
The South is filled to the brim with churches, the North is bedecked with mosque...

yet in the South you find Christian spewing so much hate, you find churches telling Christians to kill Moslems. The Bible warns against making undue profit but Christians want to make triple profit at a blow.


in the North, You find se malam propagating hate... Islam preaches love too, but then you find very few rich elite surrounded by lots of poor people... the only try to buy cartons of indomie, once in 3yrs to take pics for online likes, just to say they are giving to the poor.
when they could better pick some kids off the street to fend for... or could try making it possible for them to be in school so as to harness their full potential.

but no, we don't do any, we spend days fasting, and praying, for Nigeria to get better, The Dark age, was the period were people were too religious in the west, it was after people broke free from the chain of religion, to try taking control of their destiniez and finding answers to their problem rada than fasting and praying for them to go away... that prosperity came to the world... The Age after the religiously beclouded Dark age is called.. "THE AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT"

Africans, Nigerians, We need to be enlightened, we need to start thinking on how we could solve some life problems, and not how someone writing "IJN" instead of In Jesus Name... will bring him some bad luck...

@Op. You make no sense at all. How does abbreviation of "IJN" stop the love of God the father and his son for us?
Do you know how many sins you commit yourself without knowing?

My advice for you: Stop being a judgemental person. We have all gotten it wrong. Why Africa?

Hardeysolution:
IJN?! What is IJN?!

I am surprised and dismayed at our apparent lack of discerning and spiritual understanding.
In our quest for quick life and quick ways of doing things, we have adopted the microwave mentality to using the name of Jesus.

We have allowed the fast life to becloud the spiritual importance and meaning of calling the name JESUS and by our apparent lack of discernment and understanding which has replaced the Mighty , Earth Shaken and Miracle Inspiring Declaration “In the Name of Jesus” with “IJN” .

What is IJN ?Take time to google the abbreviation “IJN” and see what it throws up.

Have you taken time to ponder about this? : We take time to write lengthy prayers on social media and end such prayers with IJN. If you can take time to type the prayers, what stops you from typing out in full the name and the power that will bring life and answer to such prayers. Have you ever seen a traditionalist abbreviate the names of their gods in incantations or write-ups? People of God, let's wake up. The enemy is winning the battle of the mind. Remove the name of JESUS from every prayer and such prayer becomes worthless.

The name JESUS: “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things on earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father “ (Philippians 2:9-11). It is this same name we are trying to render inconsequential by abbreviation. The name that Opens a Door and no one can close. The name that Conquered principalities and powers; the name that death bowed to; is what we are trivializing. May GOD show us MERCY IN JESUS NAME!
This was the same way the enemy has made the “Christ” in Christmas irrelevant by subtle replacing it with X to make Xmas, and we do not take it to heart. I was shocked to also discover that GOD is now being abbreviated as “G”. When do we stop all these nonsense?

This is a wakeup call. There is Power Mighty in the name of JESUS. Let’s Celebrate and broadcast that name . Let's obtain the available Victory in that name. Don’t allow the enemy to subdue and weaken the power of the name through the social media. Shout it loud from the room top. Jesus is LORD Forever and Ever! Stop abbreviating His Name. . . IJN is not the same thing as “In Jesus Name”. A word is enough for the wise. Share if you believe

What is wrong with IJN ? Why do we always take anything that has to do with religious so seriously in this part of the world? even a foreign religious for that matter. l believe if Jesus himself is alive to today his reply to whoever ends his or her prayer with IJN would be YPHBA (your prayer has been answered)

Thank for this! I posted about the same thing on my facebook wall some years back, is just so annoying. You spend minutes/hours typing prayer and you end it with IJN, It does not make any sense.

Jesus is not dumb...if he can hear peoples prayers from their hearts then he can understand abbreviations. Who even told you Jesus was what he was called...It is only the English form of his Hebrew name because Joshua, yeshua, Isah, Jesus they all mean the same thing. For the sake of powerful name and respect call him the name his parents/God gave him....Yeshua. Emmanuel is even acceptable.

Very stupid thread. Who told you that the man from Nazareth was answering Jesus when he was on earth? Was it not Yehoshua which if u want to be pedantic we should call him Joshua. So what difference does it make if you abbreviate what is already a wrong translation

Just kidding, but what's fb? and coz... truly its not a problem of biblical misunderstanding but almost certainly a problem of unnecessary abbreviation of common English words.!

Agreed, if we abbreviate everything, not things about GOD. For me, i treat GOD the way i want Him to treat me.

In the beginning was The WORD, IJN and all Its Google interpretations inclusive, and The WORD was God.
God, Himself, decodes every WORD from The Heart, His Throne and Tabernacle in you if you are Born Again. So don't worry about nothing, 'cos Worry is a sin.
Happy Sunday!!!

As for op, some things are situational

Character count is a characteristics of some messaging apps

Are you saying deaf and dumb people can't pray together using sign language?

Say our Lord's Prayer that Jesus himself taught....quote me when you find "in Jesus name " inside

God knows our intent so please stop making rules when we have not obeyed 10 commandments finish
