you remember to quote me now

yet you will be the one of first to judge and insult others of other beliefs and faith. undecided
judge not ko judge not ni!


John 3


17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

let me correct d foolish comments on alcohol here now d wine Jesus turned was palm wine in its purest natural state. go to NIFOR in Benin City they sell it bottles & can.

Do u know drinking palm wine produced today in excess can intoxicate you let alone fermented palm wine? d Bible said a little wine for d stomach. did u read a little beer for d stomach. also, d Bible is against those in authority from drinking strong drink just like we followers. see all Nigeria leaders behaving like mad people. too much drinking / drugs - igbo, cocaine caused it.

the Christian denomination dat brought confusion into Christianity is d Catholic . these people are totally different from d rest of d Christian body. you can drink to stupor before coming to mass dat morning & still take holy communion, keep sinning willfully & says God understands, Heb 10:36, Gal 5:19, 1 John 5:17, Proverb 14:12 they just tell u GRACE DON COVER YOU SO U FIT THEY SIN, THEY BROUGHT "IT DOES NOT MATTER INTO CHRISTIANITY",
gay priest, gay marriage, worshipers of images rather than God & countless others.

they always try justifying their sinful habits through human wisdom. see 2 cor 3:6
they have Catholic bible different from the ones YOU & I know. there wine is translated as beer.
if u correct them u are labeled judging them. May God speak to us & bring us all to his true knowledge. The fear of Roman Catholic is d beginning of wisdom. Dat is d golden egg dat gave birth to calling sin good in Christiandom

THOSE THAT HAVE EAR LET THEM HEAR.

Bye!




your view is only but religious, period!
No man will go to hell because he took alcohol.
men will go to hell because they rejected the finished work of the son of God.

heaven will shock people like you.

But when u get a job in either NB or guiness, you go to church to give a testimony and thereafter pay your tithes. Income derived from people who drink alchohol. It is the worship of these things that's bad. Depending on them, overusing them. Bros if u gimme beer, I shack am straight

I totally diagree with the not selling Gold,after all gold is a natuaral mineral found in the eartth which was created by God.quote me one scripture in d bible/quaran that condems d wearing of gold,and pls don't quote a scripture out of context,and don't point to jesus chasing the moneylenders out of the temple,the truth is a lot of pple are just hypocritical with d truth and many try to play God,and u hear tins like women shudnt put on wat men put on and crap like dat,for God sake read ur bible very well there is no mention of trousers what was worn in d middle east where both religions emanate from were cloaks and robes for both men and women with emphasis on a face covering veil for women and there was a clear diff btw a mans cloak and dat of a womans,same tin many ladies on nl can testify there is a clear diff btw a womans trouser and mens,we talk so religious and hypocritical,a mainstream church in nigeria(won't mention names)condems. everytin but most of their members I have met made me realise if this is wat dier version of christianity is den I am sorry for christians,don't do this don't do dat,for its what does d bible say not religious rituals and church doctrines,in the end God sits in heaven and knows his tru followers,it will be sad for a lot of head tieing,no make up,no ear ring,no tv,no gold wearing christians not to make heaven and end up in HELL,i trust d devil to tell dem "SO YOU MADE IT HERE"

Enough scandal as in they acquire more wealth?

Well the givers of these wealth never lack, so I don't think a true Christian will get angry because his G.O is rich.


Don't mind those condeming rich pastors; they are only mad.

Have you ever seen a genuine giver begging for bread?

@bold! *face palm*

gosh did you really mean what you said up there?

where did this wealth come from?

it came from the members of the church who are from different classes. upper,middle and lower classes.

he is rich and the members are getting poorer? what has he done to help in those suffering in poverty?
does he have a foundation to help the sick or mother less babies? why didn't he create a school with cheap affordable fees so it can help those who don't have strong financial backing to send their children to school? or offer scholarships?

what is he giving exactly?

Creating a school that even an average member cant send their child to because of fees. buying private jets and slapping a child on live t.v and you say we should be happy?

They are not mad they are just being reasonable and thinking with their brain. You should do the same undecided

Gold has been cursed since that day the Israelites used it to make that golden calf.

Anything that takes God's place is cursed whether you like it or not!!!

As for heaven's streets being made with gold, that is to show you how wort/useless gold is, for it to be used to make the paths/roads which people tread upon, that is to show you how useless it is in heaven!!!

So when you hear the streets of heaven is made of gold, just know that its because its worthless that's why its used to make the streets, come to think of it, you don't use something that has worth to make streets!!!

Let me start with that aspect of churches opening schools that their members can't attend.
I just laugh when I see this on threads talking about pastors wealth because I'm soo darn amazed as to where these blasphemers got their blasphemies from!!! Because I attended the redeem school situated on the. RCCG camp ground and I can tell you its fees are not worth the quality education/teaching being rendered there. If I should equate it to some schools in lagos here, it will be the likes of Solomon grace, home science's eyes on the future and the likes of them where the fees they pay is close to quarter of a million!!
The funny thing is that those students whose fathers were well of.....to say that they were up to quarter of the school's population would be extravagant and I can tell you that 95% were RCCG members.
Talk of activities, everything was top notch e.g redeemers day (only if a person is broke, will this week be terrible but you can't be really broke when there are friends around, in fact you'd have been saving for the event sef!!)
When you'ved finished your sec. education you are 70%-80% sure of getting admitted into RUN!!! What more could you ask for?


P.S: I used RCCG because I'm a member of the church and I attended one of the schools. Did I forget to notify you that they also offer scholarships.

Though we all know smoking or drinking is injurious to our health; show me where it is stated in the Nigerian constitution that its bad to smoke or drink alcohol.

Not that I can't back it up with the Bible but I won't simply because I will not indulge myself in the ardous task of looking for scriptural references to backup my claim against someone who can't see sense(whether common or uncommon) in my post!

THE MOST UGLY MUSIC EVER!!! (A must read PLEASE)
This is the most UGLY and frightening song you will ever hear! In a vision, I saw a naked man covered in flaming worms that cannot Die! He turned to me and heaved a deep sigh as flames surrounded him and he sung this song in an emotionless voice! A voice that held NO emotion only the pain and torment he was in! Here are a few lyrics from the song:


Flaming worms crawl in, flaming worms crawl out in the belly button and out the mouth! In the front and out the rear! In the eyes and out the ears! We scream for mercy yet NO one cares or hears! Red hot pain in my blood rivers of feces, lava, vomit and blood it looks like a flood! Flames everywhere yet they cast NO light! All I have is every kind of pain, terror, torture and fright! I am a Citizen in HELL!

This is the first level of HELL the other levels there are NO words to tell! Hell is so hot it boils the flesh off my skin how do I describe the HELLISH pain I'm in! I'm so thirsty yet I 've not even urine or tears to drink! And OH my GOD how this HELL stinks! AHHHH, I am a Citizen in HELL!

There's NO water of any kind not even sweat to cool my brow, I know from Hell I will never be set free and demons curse and mock me! I scream to God to help me! Yet He does NOT hear! Instead the voice of Satan laughs and jeers! "HaAa! There's NO GOD and there's NO mercy here! I have torture, terror, and Damnation and every kind of FEAR! But there's NO GOD HERE! Hahaha!"

I am reminded how God in his mercy gave JESUS, His Only Son to suffer crucifixion for my sins and on a cross he hung! Just so from HELL I would be free and Satan would have no claim on me! But I refused JESUS blood to cover my sins. I wanted to live my own life so I denied Him! I know I have no one to blame now forever I 'll live in Satan's evil domain with every kind of torture and shame! Wanting to die but forgetting there is no death, thinking it will be better tomorrow but forgetting I have FOREVER left! This is what its like to be a CITIZEN IN HELL!!!

Where the Horror is so gruesome! NO tongue can tell! Everyone who is coming here will have to dig to their own level before they die! And that is how deep your sins are piled up high! But beware the greatest of all sins is the REJECTION OF JESUS CHRIST! One torture room to the next what seems like your worst nightmare is ONLY satan at his BEST! This is what its like to be a CITIZEN IN HELL!!!!!

- Sherrie Elijah

Flaming WORMS that looked like Snakes! were crawling in and OUT of EVERY OPENING OF HIS BODY! His EYES, EARS,NOSE, FRONT, REAR, I repeat EVERY OPENING! without getting graphically gross here! The screams yet echo in my mind as I am writing this down! The rich man in the bible who went to HELL told God if he would just send a man back from HELL to warn others his brothers of the torment in Hell they would not want to come there, they would live differently! But God said even if he sent someone back from HELL, few would listen and take the warning seriously! Few would believe! In this end time how many has the LORD allowed to see Heaven and Hell to be brought back to life to tell of the Horror!

So many people die everything, and majority are trooping in to hell. Your friends and family members who died without Christ, or who lived sinful and worldly Christian life, are singing the same ugly songs in hell now; you will never see them again if only you also do not go to hell. If you are reading this article before the Rapture, it means you have the chance and choice to make in order to avoid hell, but it all depends on you.

Jesus only is the way to save from going to hell; if you have not surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, you urgently need to do that now. If you claim to be a Christian but still living in sin, you need to rededicate your life to Jesus before it is too late. And if you have dedicated your life to Jesus, but living a worldly life of modern Christianity, hiding your sins, rising and falling into sin or ignoring to do necessary restitution, then you are also at the danger of hell. Until you surrender all to Jesus Christ, ALL!

Go, ask the 'lazy' farmer whom you did not see planting mango seeds but after some time, seedlings pop up then after some years, great mango trees appear, ask him where he got the migthy tree from? ask him where he got the strong branches from? ask him where he got the colourful green leaves from? ask him where he got the delicious ripe fruits from?

Will someone help me tell this female and her fellow cohorts that:
1. The world says the rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer!
2. The Bible says the poor shall not cease from the land!

Just because you are on the side of life where there's nothing but stony ground with thorns and thistles doesn't mean there isn't a side of life with tilled humus soil and a migthy river nearby where roses flourish(though with thorns)!!!

If your contribution isn't part of the fund used in raising these buildings, then you really do not have any reason to complain.

B. Oyedepo is not the reason why some Nigerians are poor. No single entity can wipe out poverty. As rich as Nigeria and Bill Gate, we still have a high poverty level in Nigeria/Africa.

I am a strong believer of the No.1 principle of wealth - "give and you shall receive," and I strongly believe the principle is working for them.

How else should he pay the numerous staffs? Do you know what it takes to run a standard school?

If you have a relative lecturing in Covenant University, Ota or Landmark in Omu-aran, would you want them to work for free?

Charity isn't a must. You cannot force people to give more than they currently give. Even God will not give us all we desire.

Lastly, Pastors are not politicians, okay. They won't give whilst calling on media houses.
