EducationSocial Network Apps, Their Date Of Invention And Who Evented Them (photos) by ADEWUMIMichael(op):
I have gathered some nice informations about some common Social apps we use everyday, i believe many will learn something from this,





Let's start with



1. Whatsapp Messenger

WhatsApp Inc., was founded in 2009 by Brian Acton and Jan Koum , both former employees of Yahoo!


As of February 2016, WhatsApp had a
user base of one billion, making it the
most popular messaging application


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WhatsApp




Additional information:

WhatsApp, was incorporated in 2009 by Brian Acton and Jan Koum, both former employees of Yahoo! . After Koum and Acton left Yahoo! in September 2007, the
duo traveled to South America as a break from work.

At one point they applied for jobs at Facebook but were rejected. For the rest of the following years Koum
relied on his $400,000 savings from
Yahoo!. In January 2009, after purchasing
an iPhone and realizing that the App Store would soon create an industry of apps,
Koum started visiting his friend Alex
Fishman in West San Jose where the three would discuss ".... having statuses next to
individual names of the people", but this
was not possible without an iPhone
developer. Fishman found a Russian
developer on RentACoder.com, Igor
Solomennikov, and introduced him to Koum.

But anyone who hates a brother or sister is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness. They do not know where they are going, because the darkness has blinded them. (NIV)


.
1 John 3:11
For this is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. (NIV)




1 John 3:14
We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love each other. Anyone who does not love remains in death. (NIV)

commit adultery. You must not murder. You must not steal. You must not covet.” These—and other such commandments—are summed up in this one commandment: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God’s law.

Christianity EtcRe: 12 Ways To Identify Pharisees In Your Church by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 8:18am On Jul 23, 2017
jiggaz:
Op do you read your Bible? The things you mentioned above is not the characteristics of Pharisees... Pharisees are :

1) Holier than thou Christians who condemn fellow believers to Hell because the believer doesn't follow the doctrine of their church.

2) They condemn unbelievers to Hell Fire and threaten them with Hell Fire instead of revealing Christ to them. Thereby pushing more people away from Christ.

3) They condemn fellow believers and judge them to damnation thinking they are scoring merits with God.

4) They accept Christ into their lives but neglect the Cross. They feel that Christ's Finished Work on the Cross is not enough thereby they resort to help Christ save them by good works ( in quote)

5)They feel that its only their church members and family that will make heaven.

6) They present God as an angry God who is quick to strike anyone dead.

7) They are holy only in appearance ( in quote) but commit atrocities when they leave the church in the absence of their brethren. ( Who's fooling who?)


cool In summary, A Pharisee is a religious hypocrite.

Look up only to Jesus, He's the author and perfecter of Our Faith. Look up to no man. Man is only mortal. Christ is the ultimate. Look at the Cross and see the greatest demonstration of God's Love to fallen humanity!!
what is the difference between a religion hypocrite and the above points??

Christianity Etc15 Ways To Minister Without Blemish by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 7:04am On Jul 23, 2017
15 WAYS TO MINISTER WITHOUT BLEMISH(How to be spiritual in ministration)



1) Pray before any ministration, if possible fast for your ministrations ministers and avoid sin.



2) Be addicted to the word of God. In fact memorize them.



3) Do not take any ministration with levity. All ministration in the church are VERY important to God.



4) Do not seek for human appreciation or glorification before or after your ministration. Only God can appreciate you if you have put in your very best.



5) Learn new songs, new ways of praising God. In fact learn an instrument or two.



6 ) Be creative with your songs and the way you play your instrument. The bible records David played skillfully in the bush.



7) Rehearse, Rehearse and do more rehearsals. David was always playing in the bush, that was his way of rehearsing.



cool Do not compete, competition leads to strife and hatred. It means you are ministering from the flesh. You are unique.



9) Do not be envious of other people. Only you cannot do the work of God. Remember the sky is wide enough for the bird to fly without touching one another.



10) Do not have the mind to "show" or impress people when ministering. If you do that, you already have your rewards.



11) Do not be discouraged or feel bad if you are not allowed to minister on a Sunday or special service. All ministrations, no matter the day, are the same before God.



12) Do not be discouraged about the few number of people under your ministration, God doesn't work with multitude.



13) Do not think you are the best when you have larger number of people under your ministration. Just pray that God moves during your ministration.



14) Develop yourself, personal development is the key. There is no limit to development, even if you have waxed a million album, there are still rooms for development.



15) Take advice from people, also take corrections. However everyone may not like you. Even it is not everybody that likes God.

Christianity EtcRe: 22 Bible Verses About Love Of God by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 7:59am On Jul 16, 2017
ADEWUMIMichael:
When looking at Bible verses about love, there are many different types of love to consider.



Here are some verses to describe our love of God:




Deuteronomy 6:5
A And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. (NLT)



Matthew 22:37-39
Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.
A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ (NLT)



1 John 2:15
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. (NIV)




1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. (NIV)



1 John 4:16-21
God stays one with everyone who openly says that Jesus is the Son of God. That’s how we stay one with God and are sure that God loves us. God is love. If we keep on loving others, we will stay one in our hearts with God, and he will stay one with us. If we truly love others and live as Christ did in this world, we won’t be worried about the day of judgment. A real love for others will chase those worries away. The thought of being punished is what makes us afraid. It shows that we have not really learned to love. We love because God loved us first. But if we say we love God and don’t love each other, we are liars.
We cannot see God. So how can we love God, if we don’t love the people we can see? The commandment that God has given us is: “Love God and love each other!” (CEV)





1 John 5:1-3
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has become a child of God. And everyone who loves the Father loves his children, too.
We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments. Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome.
(NLT)





Mark 12:30
And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. (NLT)




John 14:15
If you love me, obey my commandments. (NLT)



John 14:23
Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. (NIV)





Ephesians 5:1
Do as God does. After all, you are his dear children. (CEV)




Ephesians 6:24
May God’s grace be eternally upon all who love our Lord Jesus Christ. (NLT)




Mark 12:29-31
Jesus answered, “The most important one says: ‘People of Israel, you have only one Lord and God. You must love him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.’ The second most important commandment says: ‘Love others as much as you love yourself.’ No other commandment is more important than these.” (CEV)





1 Peter 1:8
Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory (ESV)





Hebrews 6:10
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
(NIV)





Jude 1:21
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (NKJV)





Luke 10:27-30
So he answered and said, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’” And He said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.” But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him,and departed, leaving him half dead. (NKJV)





Psalm 1:1-6
Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.
Thoughtful Faith for Your Life
Sign up to receive study aids and practical answers to help you grow spiritually and pursue an authentic, purposeful Christian life.
But they delight in the law of theLord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do. But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind. They will be condemned at the time of judgment. Sinners will have no place among the godly. For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction. (NLT)




Psalm 91:1-16
Live under the protection of God Most High and stay in the shadow of God All-Powerful. Then you will say to the Lord, “You are my fortress, my place of safety; you are my God, and I trust you.” The Lord will keep you safe from secret traps and deadly diseases. He will spread his wings over you and keep you secure. His faithfulness is like a shield or a city wall. You won’t need to worry about dangers at night or arrows during the day. And you won’t fear diseases that strike in the dark or sudden disaster at noon. You will not be harmed, though thousands fall all around you. And with your own eyes you will see the punishment of the wicked. The Lord Most High is your fortress. Run to him for safety, and no terrible disasters will strike you or your home. God will command his angels to protect you wherever you go. They will carry you in their arms, and you won’t hurt your feet on the stones. You will overpower the strongest lions and the most deadly snakes. The Lord says, “If you love me and truly know who I am, I will rescue you and keep you safe. When you are in trouble, call out to me. I will answer and be there to protect and honor you. You will live a long life and see my saving power.” (CEV)






2 John 1:6
And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.
(NIV)





2 Thessalonians 3:5
May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ.
(NLT)





Philippians 1:21
For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. (NKJV)





Philippians 3:8
Nothing is as wonderful as knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have given up everything else and count it all as garbage. All I want is Christ (CEV)

This is how we know what love is:
Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.

Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence.

Romans 13:8-10
Owe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God’s law. For the commandments say, “You must not
commit adultery. You must not murder. You must not steal. You must not covet.” These—and other such commandments—are summed up in this one commandment: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God’s law.

Christianity Etc22 Bible Verses About Love Of God by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 7:30am On Jul 16, 2017
When looking at Bible verses about love, there are many different types of love to consider.



Here are some verses to describe our love of God:




Deuteronomy 6:5
A And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. (NLT)



Matthew 22:37-39
Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.
A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ (NLT)



1 John 2:15
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. (NIV)




1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. (NIV)



1 John 4:16-21
God stays one with everyone who openly says that Jesus is the Son of God. That’s how we stay one with God and are sure that God loves us. God is love. If we keep on loving others, we will stay one in our hearts with God, and he will stay one with us. If we truly love others and live as Christ did in this world, we won’t be worried about the day of judgment. A real love for others will chase those worries away. The thought of being punished is what makes us afraid. It shows that we have not really learned to love. We love because God loved us first. But if we say we love God and don’t love each other, we are liars.
We cannot see God. So how can we love God, if we don’t love the people we can see? The commandment that God has given us is: “Love God and love each other!” (CEV)





1 John 5:1-3
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has become a child of God. And everyone who loves the Father loves his children, too.
We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments. Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome.
(NLT)





Mark 12:30
And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. (NLT)




John 14:15
If you love me, obey my commandments. (NLT)



John 14:23
Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. (NIV)

Do as God does. After all, you are his dear children. (CEV)




Ephesians 6:24
May God’s grace be eternally upon all who love our Lord Jesus Christ. (NLT)




Mark 12:29-31
Jesus answered, “The most important one says: ‘People of Israel, you have only one Lord and God. You must love him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.’ The second most important commandment says: ‘Love others as much as you love yourself.’ No other commandment is more important than these.” (CEV)





1 Peter 1:8
Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory (ESV)





Hebrews 6:10
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.

(NKJV)





Psalm 1:1-6
Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.

But they delight in the law of theLord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do. But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind. They will be condemned at the time of judgment. Sinners will have no place among the godly. For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction. (NLT)




Psalm 91:1-16
Live under the protection of God Most High and stay in the shadow of God All-Powerful. Then you will say to the Lord, “You are my fortress, my place of safety; you are my God, and I trust you.” The Lord will keep you safe from secret traps and deadly diseases. He will spread his wings over you and keep you secure. His faithfulness is like a shield or a city wall. You won’t need to worry about dangers at night or arrows during the day. And you won’t fear diseases that strike in the dark or sudden disaster at noon. You will not be harmed, though thousands fall all around you. And with your own eyes you will see the punishment of the wicked. The Lord Most High is your fortress. Run to him for safety, and no terrible disasters will strike you or your home. God will command his angels to protect you wherever you go. They will carry you in their arms, and you won’t hurt your feet on the stones. You will overpower the strongest lions and the most deadly snakes. The Lord says, “If you love me and truly know who I am, I will rescue you and keep you safe. When you are in trouble, call out to me. I will answer and be there to protect and honor you. You will live a long life and see my saving power.” (CEV)

May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ.
(NLT)

For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. (NKJV)





Philippians 3:8
Nothing is as wonderful as knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have given up everything else and count it all as garbage. All I want is Christ (CEV)

Christianity EtcRe: 8 Reasons Why Obedience To God Is Very Important by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 7:19am On Jul 16, 2017
May God give us the power to continue to obey in forever,
Christianity Etc8 Reasons Why Obedience To God Is Very Important by ADEWUMIMichael(op): 7:18am On Jul 16, 2017
From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible has a lot to say about obedience. In the story of the Ten Commandments, we see just how important the concept of obedience is to God.


Deuteronomy 11:26–28 sums it up like this: "Obey and you will be blessed. Disobey and you will be cursed."

In the New Testament, we learn through the example of Jesus Christ that believers are called to a life of obedience.




OBEDIENCE DEFINITION IN THE BIBLE
The general concept of obedience both in the Old and New Testament relates to hearing or hearkening to a higher authority.


One of the Greek terms for obedience conveys the idea of positioning oneself under someone by submitting to their authority and command. Another Greek word for obey in the New Testament means "to trust."


According to Holman's Illustrated Bible Dictionary a succinct definition of biblical obedience is "to hear God's Word and act accordingly."


Eerdman's Bible Dictionary says, "True 'hearing,' or obedience, involves the physical hearing that inspires the hearer, and a belief or trust that in turn motivates the hearer to act in accordance with the speaker's desires."


So, biblical obedience to God means, simply, to hear, trust, submit and
surrender to God and his Word.






8 REASONS WHY OBEDIENCE TO GOD IS IMPORTANT



1. JESUS CALLS US TO OBEDIENCE

In Jesus Christ we find the perfect model of obedience. As his disciples, we follow Christ's example as well as his commands. Our motivation for obedience is love:

John 14:15
If you love me, you will keep my commandments. (ESV)



2. OBEDIENCE IS AN ACT OF WORSHIP

While the Bible places strong emphasis on obedience, it's important to remember that believers are not
justified (made righteous) by our obedience. Salvation is a free gift of God, and we can do nothing to merit it.

True Christian obedience flows from a heart of gratitude for the grace we have received from the Lord:
Romans 12:1
And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. (NLT)




3. GOD REWARDS OBEDIENCE

Over and over again we read in the Bible that God blesses and rewards obedience:
Genesis 22:18
"And through your descendants all the nations of the earth will be blessed—all because you have obeyed me." (NLT)
Exodus 19:5
Now if you will obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my own special treasure from among all the peoples on earth; for all the earth belongs to me. (NLT)
Luke 11:28
Jesus replied, "But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice." (NLT)
James 1:22–25


But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. For if you listen to the word and don't obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don't forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.
(NLT)




4. OBEDIENCE TO GOD PROVES OUR LOVE

1 John 5:2–3
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. (ESV)
2 John 6
And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments; this is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, so that you should walk in it. (ESV)




5. OBEDIENCE TO GOD DEMONSTRATES OUR FAITH
1 John 2:3–6
And we can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. If someone claims, "I know God," but doesn't obey
God's commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. But those who obey God's word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.

(NLT)



6.OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE
1 Samuel 15:22–23
But Samuel replied, "What is more pleasing to the LORD: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to his voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering the fat of rams. Rebellion is as sinful as witchcraft, and stubbornness as bad as worshiping idols. So because you have rejected the command of the LORD, he has rejected you as king." (NLT)





7. DISOBEDIENCE LEADS TO SIN AND DEATH
The disobedience of Adam brought sin and death into the world. But Christ's perfect obedience restores our fellowship with God, for everyone who believes in him.
Romans 5:19
For as by the one man's [Adam's] disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's [Christ's] obedience the many will be made righteous. (ESV)
1 Corinthians 15:22
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. (ESV)





8. THROUGH OBEDIENCE, WE EXPERIENCE THE BLESSINGS OF HOLY LIVING
Only Jesus Christ is perfect, therefore, only he could walk in sinless obedience. But as we allow the Holy Spirit to transform us from within, we grow in holiness.



Psalm 119:1–8
Joyful are people of integrity, who follow the instructions of the LORD. Joyful are those who obey his laws and search for him with all their hearts. They do not compromise with evil, and they walk only in his paths.



You have charged us to keep your commandments carefully. Oh, that my actions would consistently reflect your decrees! Then I will not be ashamed when I compare my life with your commands. As I learn your righteous regulations, I will thank you by living as I should! I will obey your decrees. Please don't give up on me! (NLT)



Isaiah 48:17–19
This is what the LORD says—your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is good for you and leads you along the paths you should follow. Oh, that you had listened to my commands! Then you would have had peace flowing like a gentle river and righteousness rolling over you like waves in the sea. Your descendants would have been like the sands along the seashore—too many to count! There would have been no need for your destruction, or for cutting off your family name." (NLT)




2 Corinthians 7:1
Because we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that can defile our body or spirit. And let us work toward complete holiness because we fear God. (NLT)
The verse above says, "Let us work toward complete holiness." So, we don't learn obedience overnight; it's a lifelong process that we pursue by making it a daily goal.
