How Come, Nigeria Is Not In The Bible by femicyrus(m): 11:44am On Oct 09, 2014
Since our pastors are the richest in the world now then Nigeria should have appeared somewhere in the bible in form of a prophecy by a prophet that a country will emerge who's pastors will be the richest in the world at a time like this. We seems to know God better than the whole world and God should have notify us or atleast give us a clue in the bible about christianity in nigeria in the later day. Our pastors always hit the news more than any country

Who told you Nigeria is not in the Bible? Who do you think these verses of the Bible are referring to;
Isaiah 29:13
Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:


Matthew 15:8
This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

universities that is offering world class education @ affordable prices? Or tht has a fixed price not adjusted year by year?

Or universities, making sombody else rich. A milkg bzness.

Tv stations,yeah, as a bizness arm also.
Bascally wat is d impact of som of these mega churches on d society they exist in?
Christians ar as greedy and connivg as d gospel propagated nowadays.
Lastly, wu ar these pastors impressing? God or the world?
Cuz as for Jesus, it is doing wat he called them to do- feed His sheep. Not pile up a fortune. Theyre money doesnt impress Jesus.
"loveth me mor than this?" - jesus asked peter.

How much do these ministries pay their staff?
Go figure.
Acquiring wealth for forbes index, while riding on d back of slave labour to run a ministry.

Crappy list...what benchmarks were used in the said measurement? Yeah, right! Assumptions.

Kenneth Copeland has been giving out jets yet, he's not there on the list, what of Adeboye?...and many others...let me not mention priests and Reverends in the Catholic, Anglican and Methodist churches.

Later you lot call another person gullible

Ma'am please, I mean no offence, but can you reduce the use of abbreviated words? 'U', 'cuz', 'bascally', 'd', 'wu', 'ar' . Use punctuations too.

I found it difficult to read your post! Writings like this tends to make one not to take you serious or assume you are a teenager!

Thank you

But...but... Israel means all of us, na.

Sheep are very foolish animals to emulate. In fact, their name represents an insult to any human being with average intelligence.

internet culture? how many times has el rufai,NOI, seun, mods, WinsomeX, most grown ups etc tweeted or typed in internet culture?is there any such thing as internet culture? All I asked for it the ability to read your posts, not to make you look bad. Why type what folks can't readily comprehend? Connecting from or what device is not an excuse for typing in short hand. I use a mobike phone, or a tab, or a laptop...no matter my hurry, I type English. If you must write in English, do it properly.

From the above bold, i just summed up your mental capacity,and age. Ma'am means A polite form of address for a woman or lady. It's short for madam...have a great life.
