The Church is the assembly of saints.

The Church doesn't hold on to contradictory doctrines neither does the Church teach differently from what the Apostles taught as revealed in the epistles.

Meaning??

If a team plays 15 matches and loses 3 of them, winning the rest...and another plays 4 matches loosing 2 and winning 2, will you say the former is worse because they have lost more matches?

Microflux:
k. Hav added u. Check ur mentions

I just saw it...thanks.

I'd like my attention to be drawn when I'm needed. A mention will do.

Microflux, I can help teach Account if my assistance will be needed.

After knowledgeable doctors confirm and affirm its authenticity, we still find dumb Atheists who will never stop arguing against it... fooling themselves.

italo:
Who named Sacred Scriptures "Bible?"

Who compiled the Bible?

When was it compiled?

Or did it fall from heaven?

Bible answers please.

No bible answers.

The reason is simple; The question is not a bible question, rather, it is a history question.

Only history can provide answers.

Happy Birthday, FlawlessS.

LLNP.

True, the most high does not dwell in houses made with hands.

Hallelujah!

Odilafta:

Oga could you pls stop carrying my matter on your head?
Whatever I say is strictly my opinion

Simple, it is just your opinion.

It is not necessarily true.

vooks:
Paul I repeat had no qualms publicizing Timothy's frequent ailments. Timothy was an MoG & leader as they come. So the idea that leaders weaknesses should be shielded from their followers is not quite Biblical.

The reason politicians hide theirs Mugabe style is because it is a sign of weakness and may destabilize their countries or give undue advantage to their enemies,real or imagined. Very common among strongmen and dictators. Why should the church copy the world in projecting power and invincibility? If they were as forward, maybe our prayers may save them!

When public figures are sick, it is not always heard of, religious or not.
If the non religious ones are shielded, I believe the religious ones are most often, not shielded.


If you believe it is shielded, I can say it is not intentional. The sick one usually won't be the one to publicize, and if others do not, it is no one's fault.

The congregation is always aware when my local Pastor is sick...but he rarely is.

...and if you believe it should always be made public, you can take a step by getting to open a thread for every sick Pastor you find out about.

Odilafta:
The only thing is that they always
admonish their ardent followers to shun
ortodox care ,fold their arms and watch
healing occour. While they go on
vacation oversea and do a thorough
medical check up and treatment..

Odilafta:

It is not an assumption..

So, where's the proof to substantiate it since it is not an assumption?

Or will you simply admit you lied?

vooks:
Are they not supposed to fall sick, or is this a sign of 'weakness'?

No, it is not a sign of weakness....and they are not supposed to fall sick but they are not immune to sicknesses either.
Of course, God doesn't want us sick.

They feel pain, hunger, thirst, sicknesses and other things humans feel...when they feel all these, their close ones know about it, not necessarily everyone.

But op, do you expect them to announce on TV and Radio stations when they are sick?

Or who does that?
Do our national leaders (President, Governors and other elites) announce they are sick?
Has Dangote ever announced his sickness or have you ever known when he's sick?
Do you ever hear when the U.S president is sick?
Do you always hear about the Pope's illnesses?

Or is that a sign of 'weakness?'
Are they not supposed to fall sick?

So why criticize them?...or why accuse them of 'hiding' their sicknesses.

Odilafta:


The only thing is that they always admonish their ardent followers to shun ortodox care ,fold their arms and watch healing occour. While they go on vacation oversea and do a thorough medical check up and treatment..

Proof?

Or is that just an assumption?
Or perhaps, a lie.

It is okay to eat it.

Btw, why should I reject good food?

Not less than 80% of all I ate today was ileya meat.

msjanet: Hi guys ! I just joined today and I hope to make good friends here .

You're welcome.
Hope to see you around often.

marieolae: law

Thanks, but I actually meant the school.

In simple terms; A God-fearing person is one who wouldn't do that which is wrong intentionally.

@Liability, I'd appreciate it if you'd give a response to my earlier question.

marieolae: I'm a student.

That's good to know.
Which institution do you study?

Liability,

Lately, I've seen you post some issues on here...how well have you managed them?

I hope you're no longer feeling guilty of 'crimes' you never committed.

VickyO,
I almost never see your posts online anymore.
Why?

...and I hope you're fine.

marieolae: Someone should ask me a question!!!!!!! I wanna be interviewed!!!!!!!!

Marie, are you presently schooling/working in Nigeria?

Mods,

marieolae: thnks dear

You're welcome, Marie.

marieolae: Mehn this thread is PUMPING. I'm happy to be on dat list

Yeah, it brings a good feeling...

Nice dp too.

kingk:
Greeting boss (oga at the top)

I hail sir.
Nice dp.

Oya, op, do the needful.

kingk: Bwt....let all girls/ladies here put up their dp without make-ups. We don't want the so called cat-fished once.....cos most guys here are natural.

Seconded.

italo:

Because you agree with me...I can speak for you.

We don't agree with you so you don't speak for us.

Also, there's a pic of protestant mothers and daughters kneeling before your pastor and worshipping him, sucking 'anointed milk' from his penis.

That one is too graphic to be put on nairaland.

Talk about worship of images. Hypocrite!

Protestants enslave themselves to a book that
holds the (written) word of God.

Roman Catholics enslave themselves to diverse
kinds of graven images and statues.

Hallelujah!!!


Or are you tryna say the latter statement is untrue?

italo:

No we don't.

Speak for yourself alone.

You're not our mouthpiece!

You acted as a mouthpiece for protestants.

italo:
You worship sheet of paper and your
pastors.

italo:
Why should I leave a pic that proves that protestants enslave themselves to sheets of paper instead of worshipping God in truth and spirit?

italo:
Many protestants enslave themselves to a book they call Bible.
Don't you see them worshipping it in that pic?

Yet, you refuse someone else speaking for you.


Okay, continue.

italo:

The word of God is Jesus.

The Book is not the word of God...just like a file that contains soft copy of the Bible is not the word of God.

The book contains the written word of God...just like your phone can contain the soft copy of the written word.[
/b]

I don't see you worshipping your phone.

[b]You worship sheet of paper and your pastors.

The pics above prove it.

Sorry, but this holds no water.


How is it ever possible to have written words of God without a book or any surface/screen?



Protestants enslave themselves to a book that holds the (written) word of God.

Roman Catholics enslave themselves to diverse kinds of graven images and statues.

Hallelujah!!!
