AntiChristian:
So the Holy spirit that came down as dove didn't stay around? He had to return and come again?
The holy spirit that came as dove, came down on Jesus at the beginning of his ministry. At that time he was yet to choose his apostles or disciples.

Will you as a master give 100,000 settlement to your apprentice who is yet to learn from you? What do you think will happen to the money?

Also, the Holy spirit had mo reason to come on them because Jesus was there with them.

The holy spirit came later to continue the work of establishing the kingdom by helping the apostles preach with power and wonders.

You're invited today.

How many Prophets prayed in tongues in your Bible?

Did Jesus?

What tongues?
I think you need to read the bible more.

, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

Then read Acts 2 which is the fulfillment of the promise of the Holy Spirit.

Nigerians are massively supporting Israel because they believe it's the Christian thing to do. Meanwhile the Israeli do not even believe in Jesus Christ
If you have read the bible, you will understand why: an excerpt Romans 11: 11-35

a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,

11 So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. 12 Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion[a] mean!

13 Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry 14 in order somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous, and thus save some of them. 15 For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead? 16 If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root[b] of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches. If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you. 19 Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” 20 That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast through faith. So do not become proud, but fear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off. 23 And even they, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again. 24 For if you were cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be grafted back into their own olive tree.

The Mystery of Israel's Salvation
25 Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers:

[c] a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,

“The Deliverer will come from Zion,
he will banish ungodliness from Jacob”;
27 “and this will be my covenant with them
when I take away their sins.”

28 As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers. 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. 30 For just as you were at one time disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience, 31 so they too have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may now[d] receive mercy.
Christianity EtcRe: Why My Target Is No Longer To Make Heaven by agabaI23(m): 9:32am On May 19, 2024
jesusjnr2020:
Why My Target Is No Longer To Make Heaven

It's because I'm have found something much better, bigger, and greater.

Though my initial target used to be heaven because the last thing I wanted to do was to end up in hell.

But when I began to walk with God and got to know Him, I was like, whathuh?

Are you kidding mehuh?

Is this what I have been missing all this whilehuh?

To be honest, I wished I had gotten to know God much much earlier, and if possible all through my whole life, because God is the best thing that I had ever known and the best thing that had ever happened to me, past, present and even future.

And that is not flattery by any means, infact it's a huge understatement, as mere words cannot even describe Him. He's just too good to be true.

I began to see why those that truly got to know God in the past, wouldn't trade Him or His place in their lives for anything else in this world, but would do or give anything just to keep Him, because God just too much, walahi! So once you really got a taste of Him, you'd never want to let Him go, as you become hooked for life, and just can't get enough of Him.

So despite that God wasn't my original target, having come to know Him, He's won over my heart, soul and mind, that my target is now to please Him and be as close to His heart as possible.

That's why my target is no longer heaven, but He who dwells in it.

And this has been my target for over 2 decades now and still counting.


To God be the glory!
That should be the target of everyone.
When one gets this revelation, he will say like Paul, all richest gains I count as loss and pour contempt on all my pride.

exactly what I said yesterday when I checked the fixture. They are playing at home. Imagine Everton beating Liverpool 2-0? If Everton was at midtable as usual, they would've collected a draw or a loss following history.

The propagandist is not so smart. If I was the one, I would not include Tantita and the Army in the same document since ICIRN has alleged that they are a conjoined twins in this case. This is like giving credence to the ICIRN report already.

Gerrard59:
You only need GRE fee, TOEFL fee, WES fee, SEVIS fee, visa application fee and flight ticket. Aside the UK, most countries' universities' offer scholarships, and as you stated, they are competitive. Why shouldn't they be? Everyone loves good things, and good things don't come easy or cheap. Yu must work hard for them. In order to compete, you need to have a competitive profile. I would outline the profile of folks I know one-on-one and from a distance:

- First class in Biotechnology from a private university and MSc from a federal university in the south east who is pursuing his PhD in the US. Source of funding: Graduate Fellowship (very competitive form of sponsorship by US' universities).
- First class in Biotechnology from a federal university who pursues his graduate studies in the US. His first class was even celebrated on the front page sef.
- First class in Chemistry from a federal university, and I think should be done with his PhD in the US. Prior to leaving Nigeria, he taught GRE/GMAT to job seekers in Nigeria.
- First class in Petrochemical engineering from a state university now in Canada pursuing his MSc, and as we discussed would move to the US for his PhD. He was a math teacher prior to leaving Nigeria.

While all are first class (including others too numerous to mention), there are also those with 2.1 who get scholarship to study abroad. I know one who did and would complete his PhD this year. I know another in Germany who we communicated via Nairaland and should be done with his PhD sef. Had a 4.33 in Chemistry from a state university. Myself, I had a 2.1 and got scholarships when I arrived. My parents said either I get scholarships as 25 million would not be spent even though they had/have it. No be only me dem born.

To secure these scholarships, your profile must be competitive, as admission into grad school is very competitive. I thought competition would have reduced as Chinese students shy away from the US, but Indians don cover the gap. First class graduates are more likely to be sponsored because foreign universities judge us mainly based on our grades before other factors compared to how they would assess Americans, Europeans or Chinese. A Chinese grad with 2.1. from Fudan University has little to exhibit compared to a 2.1. from UNIBEN. To compete favourably against that Fudan grad, it is better to possess a first class.
First class is an advantage but there are other things you could for sone scholarships targeted at Africans. Show proof of leadership skills and accomplishments.

Foreign AffairsRe: Scary Moment As Bridge Refuses To Collapse During 7.5 Mag Earthquake In Taiwan by agabaI23(m): 3:27pm On Apr 03, 2024
helinues:
Please stop, your Bible couldn't even detect what caused earthquake until the scientist came. Give credit to the engineer who built the bridge instead of crediting one God who couldn't divert the disaster.

Earthquake is mostly caused by movement of tectonic plates. The collision of two plates will definitely cause friction hence the earthquake. After earthquake, followed by Tsunami.

Why una no fit pray to that God to stop all those natural disasters. The Whites who brought the religion have moved pass it. USA and Canada are now country of Transgender, Gay, Lesbianism, LGBTQ, BLA BLA.

Is it God that's still instructing the Israel to conquer more land as God na real estate agent?

Scottish prime minister was interviewed sometimes ago to differentiate between who a man supposed to be and a woman, she couldn't instead just saying rubbish as she's one of the promoters of LGBTQ. Those are part of those who forced that same religion on us but they don't longer believe in it.

Religion na scam
Are you condemning Christianity because it suits your situation or because you're convinced that there is no God?

What is Science? Someone discovers the law of nature and applies the science discovery( technology); to create things, does that negate a creator of the laws?

Have you read the part of the bible that said, "increase and multiply and subdue the earth". Emphasis is on subdue the earth.

What does subdue mean to you?
