Why do you speak like God?
chukwudi44:

Freeglobe please speak for yourself.who told you obi has been bribing catholic bishops? Obi never campaigned there BTW the catholic church is no longer in CAN and Bishop Chukwuma is only speaking for protestants who only make just about 30% of the state population.

APC will never rule Anambra state!! I don't care who wins once that party is not APC.All I am interested in is that APC will never smell the Anambra Govt house.

chocopearl:

Ngige and Ifeanyi Ubah were NEVER at dat crusade ground on d said day, pls get ur facts right.
And for CAN banning campaign in churches thats a very good development, the Rector of the Basilica of the Most Holy Trinity(the mother church in d diocese where dis incident occured) warned all his parishoners last sunday in all masses dat he doesn't want to see any group holding any political gathering within d church premises. He even went ahead to say dat he doesn't want to see anybody wearing any political ''aso ebi'' within d Basilica premises. So u see dis is nt abt CAN and it's members and non members is jst d right thing to do.

Catholic parishioners will listen to their Rector, not one CAN man.

Contesting politicians always patronize big churches before elections and PLEASE, a true minister of God should know that they are only coming to curry favour.
Don't welcome them to your crusades.
If they really want to repent and reconcile with God, they can do so in private consultations with the ministers of God and not public show of piety of eye service and lip service.
NO MAN CAN FOOL GOD.
All these going to Jerusalem to hit heads on the Wailing Wall like a Jew and kneeling down for ministers to pray for you and publishing the photographs is all HYPOCRISY.

Going to kneel before GOs at crusades is all public relations for political campaigns.
YOU MAY FOOL THE CHURCH AND THE WHOLE WORLD, BUT YOU CAN NEVER FOOL GOD.

Prayer

5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

9 “This, then, is how you should pray:

“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a]
but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’

14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
Fasting

16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Treasures in Heaven

19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy,[c] your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eyes are unhealthy,[d] your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

24 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
Do Not Worry

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?

28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

~ Matthew 6: 5 - 34.

Abiolacicero: I just watched the survivors interviewed on their sick bed by the AIT and CHANNELS reporters on AIT 8pm newshour and they put the blame on Gov. Peter and his aides.

You mean you just watched Ngige's kinsman interview and out of a sudden what she/he said becomes the truth as against what the majority and even the organisers of the event are saying?

Re: CAN Bans Political Campaigns In Churches by Nobody: 9:53am On Nov 05, 2013
From the whole scenario, it shows that CAN had always approved campaigns in churches ever before now, this is a disgrace to christianity. What has light to do with darkness? So CAN leaders have brought the world into the church for money. Have they 4gotten that friendliness with this world is an enimity unto God?
Re: CAN Bans Political Campaigns In Churches by isarumah(m): 10:01am On Nov 05, 2013
Charity should begin at home, Ayo Ositsejafor should desist from blackmailing opposition and trumpheting GEJ. I see that as political campain by a religious leader. Except if CAN is realy the spiritual wing of feedeefee.

To me, a place of worship like church should not be turn to a house of politics. Why should the man of God in charge of that church be allow politician to carry out their campaign at first?
