This report is not scientific.
And the airlines can go to court and win.

These two airlines seem to be the cheapest for Nigerians and they have most passengers. It is normal that they will record the highest numbers of any set of people traveling in and out of Nigeria including drug traffickers.

AntiChristian:
Even with the Holy Spirit he still chose Judas. Does that mean the Holy Spirit isn't perfect? Even after the 12 disciples, Paul was appointed again as an emergency disciple after Jesus left! Jesus sure didn't select them well!
Jesus was meant to die and someone was meant to betray him. Prophet Isaiah Chapter 53 spoke about his type of death. So it is inevitable that someone would betray him. Judas chose to play the role of a betrayer.

Paul was not appointed as an emergency disciple. I don't know where you got that interpretation from. So Pst Oyedepo, Rev Fr Ozelle etc are emergency apostles? Paul was a convert like all of us but his zeal for the kingdom of God which was misdirected initially was properly channelled when he encountered the Boss.

AntiChristian:

This is subjective to many factors! Are you saying God is yet to know Jesus?

You didn't understand the analogy. Jesus did not give the apostles the Holy Spirit when he was with them because they were still being taught. In some churches, laying on hands is preceded by what they call the life in the spirit seminar, a series of teaching that mirrors the time Jesus was teaching his disciples. He could not give them the Holy Ghost with those gifts because they wouldn't have been able to manage the gifts. It is like using 100 million to settle Nwaboy who does not know the business or putting him in charge of a shop when he has not mastered the trade.

AntiChristian:


So you mean Jesus and the Holy Spirit are equal to one another's presence?
Christians believe in the triune God. God the father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. The presence of one represents the rest.

AntiChristian:


After Jesus said it is finished then the Holy spirit came to continue what again?
Jesus came to lay the foundation of the church and Holy Spirit built on it through the work of the apostle.

It is finished means that debt we owe because of sin, has been paid in full. So when you accept Jesus as the son of God, you believe that he rose from the dead, you are freed from original sin and you will be forgiven of any sin you will commit afterwards because he pleads to on behalf of those who believe. The wages of sin is death and we mean the second death in the lake of fire.

Will you accept him today? May the Lord encounter like he encountered Saul and he became Paul. I pray that the genuine hunger for the truth will keep restless until you find Jesus, in Jesus name, Amen!

AntiChristian:


So the Holy spirit that came down as dove didn't stay around? He had to return and come again?
The holy spirit that came as dove, came down on Jesus at the beginning of his ministry. At that time he was yet to choose his apostles or disciples.

Will you as a master give 100,000 settlement to your apprentice who is yet to learn from you? What do you think will happen to the money?

Also, the Holy spirit had mo reason to come on them because Jesus was there with them.

The holy spirit came later to continue the work of establishing the kingdom by helping the apostles preach with power and wonders.

You're invited today.

I think you need to read the bible more.

Then read Acts 2 which is the fulfillment of the promise of the Holy Spirit.

thesicilian:
Nigerians are massively supporting Israel because they believe it's the Christian thing to do. Meanwhile the Israeli do not even believe in Jesus Christ

If you have read the bible, you will understand why: an excerpt Romans 11: 11-35

a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,

11 So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. 12 Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion[a] mean!

13 Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry 14 in order somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous, and thus save some of them. 15 For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead? 16 If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root[b] of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches. If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you. 19 Then you will say, β€œBranches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” 20 That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast through faith. So do not become proud, but fear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off. 23 And even they, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again. 24 For if you were cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be grafted back into their own olive tree.

The Mystery of Israel's Salvation
25 Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers:

[c] a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,

β€œThe Deliverer will come from Zion,
he will banish ungodliness from Jacob”;
27 β€œand this will be my covenant with them
when I take away their sins.”

28 As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers. 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. 30 For just as you were at one time disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience, 31 so they too have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may now[d] receive mercy.
Religion / Re: Why My Target Is No Longer To Make Heaven by agabaI23(m): 9:32am On May 19
jesusjnr2020:
Why My Target Is No Longer To Make Heaven

It's because I'm have found something much better, bigger, and greater.

Though my initial target used to be heaven because the last thing I wanted to do was to end up in hell.

But when I began to walk with God and got to know Him, I was like, what?

Are you kidding me?

Is this what I have been missing all this while?

To be honest, I wished I had gotten to know God much much earlier, and if possible all through my whole life, because God is the best thing that I had ever known and the best thing that had ever happened to me, past, present and even future.

And that is not flattery by any means, infact it's a huge understatement, as mere words cannot even describe Him. He's just too good to be true.

I began to see why those that truly got to know God in the past, wouldn't trade Him or His place in their lives for anything else in this world, but would do or give anything just to keep Him, because God just too much, walahi! So once you really got a taste of Him, you'd never want to let Him go, as you become hooked for life, and just can't get enough of Him.

So despite that God wasn't my original target, having come to know Him, He's won over my heart, soul and mind, that my target is now to please Him and be as close to His heart as possible.

That's why my target is no longer heaven, but He who dwells in it.

And this has been my target for over 2 decades now and still counting.


To God be the glory!
That should be the target of everyone.
When one gets this revelation, he will say like Paul, all richest gains I count as loss and pour contempt on all my pride.

exactly what I said yesterday when I checked the fixture. They are playing at home. Imagine Everton beating Liverpool 2-0? If Everton was at midtable as usual, they would've collected a draw or a loss following history.
