Empiree:
Eclipses are signs from Allaah by means of which Allaah makes His slaves afraid. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And We sent not the signs except to warn, and to make them afraid (of destruction)” [al-Israa’ 17:39]

When the sun was eclipsed at the time of the Messenger of Allaah SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), he went out rushing nervously to the mosque, dragging his cloak behind him, and led the people in prayer. He told them that the eclipse was one of the signs of Allaah, with which Allaah makes His slaves afraid, and that it may be the cause of punishment coming upon the people. He commanded them to do that which could prevent the punishment, so he commanded them to pray when an eclipse happens, and to make du’aa’, seek His forgiveness, give charity, free slaves and do other righteous deeds so that the punishment would go away and not befall the people. So the eclipse is a reminder to people, making them afraid so that they will turn back to Allaah and pay attention to Him.


{SIC}

People aint afraid anymore. They only gaze the eclipses as some sort of toy

This is new to me. Bro shed more light on this make I learn

Read the excerpts below

The movement was founded by Samuel Joseph Bilewu Oschoffa, a former carpenter born in Dahomey (now Benin) in 1909. [3] Raised as Protestant (Methodism ), he had a divine revelation on 27 May 1947, during a solar eclipse , in a forest where he was lost. He felt called to pray, to heal the sick and raise the dead and founded his church in September 1947.

3- OSHOFFA IN THE FOREST
To exceed by the facts, it did not know any more what to make but it returned nevertheless in the forest in the
hope that after the cutting of wood, its paddler would hear reason and return to surely seek it. [b]Once with the
place where it was to cut out wood, it had solar eclipse, it was on May 23rd, 1947. All around him darkens. At the moment when it tried to reflect to understand what occurred, in front of him, appears a light dazzling which had the appearance of a human being suspended in the air and at the bottom of this image on the ground a white monkey having four teeth including two in top and two bellow (this has a spiritual direction), a snake and a peacock. A voice resounded LULI! LULI! LULI! What means the GRACE! GRACE! GRACE! The voice told him: “my son, I am not afraid will entrust a mission to you. Because much are those which adore me here on ground but which still will seek additional protections after other gods so that after their death, they lose my face. Your mission will thus consist in preaching the good news of repentance to the Men. I will accompany your works by great miracles and wonders”. When the voice disappeared, it was filled of the HOLY SPIRIT and remained in the forest during ninety (90) days when it nourished only pure honey and water of river GODRO[/b].

benji93:

Are u alright, what brings oschoffa into this, in fact this shows you acknowledge the fact that he was called when the eclipse of the sun occurred in 1947, september 29th, but because of your disbelief, you refuse to comprehend and accept the coincidence. Why would it be oschoffa, it has to be a lie. say whatever you wish, think whatever you want, the truth is the power of God is inexplicable.

You are a fool, I can't be decieved anyway cos I'm not a sheep!

Moreover, it occurred in May 1947, not September. Take your ignorance away from here!

Ogbeni what kind of news is this. There was no eclipse here in Benin city.

Tolexander:
Nice capture!

Nothing kills more than ignorance,
Joseph Oshofa of the Celestial Church of Christ siezed this eclipse occurrence in 1947 then to decieve people that God used the eclipse to call him!

..................nothing kill than ignorance i think u must be a hatress, anti celestial...........*oloshi*

You should watch your tongue mumu, if God uses that medium to call him and had since then been delivering people from various ailments and spiritual attacks and never go extinct, so who da EFFING are u to come out and tell us that he deceived people when your generation had not succeeded in making a fragment of impact in the whole system revolving around the world.

well, i am not convincing you, i am only refering you to your display of folly, you are trying so hard to discredit him by bringing him into this, you can actually say a lot about the solar eclipse without mentioning him.

I pray God forgive you. If you don't have something reasonable to say do well not to misinform others.

Views from Bayelsa State.

I really don't understand...Here in badagry,the cloud is as clear ad crystal.....

I thought maybe it was my eyes that had some defect, SO I decided to use my phone camera to view the sky,yet I couldn't see anything strange or whatsoever.. Or is Badagry not part of Lagos ni?
