I went to a New Years Eve celebration tonight with the Redeemed Christian Church of God.  This is a brand new experience to me.  There was alot of shouting and loud talking going on.  We were encouraged to cross over to the New Year with out sickness.  We were to be thankful we are all alive today.  What struck me the most however was when we were told to enter into a salt covenant with one another.  People brought salt for us all to share and take home.  We were told this is for healing us.  Than we had communion and after that we were told to anoint our feet with oil to keep our feet inline with our heads.  Can anyone explain this ritual to me, I have never heard of this before in my whole life.  Everyone there did as they were instructed to do.  I was uncomfortable and was not able to conform.  Is this biblical?  Let me know what you think about this please. They also took up 2 offerings and we were encouraged to give our first money to God this brand New year.

Perfectly unscriptural. Let someone prove me wrong.

A good starting point would be to assess last year's predictions on this thread.

. . .and it was a landslide; an anticipated landslide victory. . .

Church, supplying a part of the music that everyone will be dancing to. Its always refreshing to enter the new yer with God

Okay thats enough. We get the point of the thread already.

i really want to know the richest between these two guys. dont forget the wives and concubines with the wisdom bestowed on them

How do you intend to monetize wisdom and human beings

Also what most of what we get at this time of year is so-called prophecies of doom, doom and more doom, as if that is all God has planned for the world

On my way out of a very popular non-denominational church in Ibadan, I saw a sign saying:

"NO WEARING OF LIPSTICK DURING HOLY COMMUNION OR YOU WILL BE PASSED"

I stopped and took a picture with my phone and somehow it has disappeared from my hard disk

Which vendor, which magazine?

@OP, no be only you wey tire. . .

Let me interrupt you at this point. permit me to ask you. . .  .what is the mind of God concerning false prophets?

Permit me to reply: Jeremiah spoke God's mind on false prophets in his book, specifically here
23:16 This is what the LORD Almighty says:
       "Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you;
       they fill you with false hopes.
       They speak visions from their own minds,
       not from the mouth of the LORD.

A whole president has now turned to lost and found matter.

Perhaps the international media should give this saga more attention; it may pressurize Segun, Dora and their other colleagues to tell us the truth.

But right now Mutallab and his comrades-in-arms in Yemen have all the attention.

Maybe its the law of diminishing returns. . .with a vertically inverted curve

I admire your patience

presently my laptop is called a television by every1 who uses it,
any time nepa takes the electricity my laptop just goes off cos my batterys spoilt

Lol! LoL! Or desktop. There is one I have like that and its so frustrating cuz its the internet gateway.

I've been using my laptop for one year now, virtually plugged in 24/7 and my battery hasn't depreciated.

I guess in Naija, PHCN helps extend your battery life by preventing overcharging (i.e. if charge is inversely proportional to battery life).

Dual Core is the most familiar name on the list
Lynxmoon sounds like a linux fanatic, of which I am not

Too late

The journalists that carried the story and their superiors should collectively be tied to the stake and be shot

Nice! Nice! Nice!

Okay. In this matter, I would say to every man his own. Celebrating Jesus' birth does Jesus nor man no harm.
