BitmapStudios: It works!
One of our staffs was harassed by a team of the FSARS, Ibadan and wanted to extort him since they found a phone and the receipt of a over 100k on him -they concluded he must be a criminal. When another member of our staff that was with him called to inform me and told me they had taken him (the other one they 'illegally' arrested) to Testing Ground in Iwo Road (their Zonal Command), I asked to speak with the Officer in Charge of the team and when he gave him the phone, he was just shouting (more of egoistic threats and I-call-do-and-undo attitude, IMHO) that I should come to meet them and 'I will see what they would do to me', since I said he's a member of staff of our studio, so, I was the one sending them on jobs. I then immediately call the PPCRU number and within seconds, I was on the call with a senior police officer in Abuja with a very noticeable Northern accent. I stated my case as the other staff had narrated to me. He demanded to speak with any of FSARS officers and I told him I wasn't at the location of the incidence. I then sent the other guy that was with him the PPCRU number to call and explain everything to him. He did and according to his account, the OC was just jittery and saying, yes sir, yes sir! on the phone. The OC then lied that they were investigating and not trying to extort and would release him if I could come to their office and identify him, our staff. So, I went there and within minutes, he was bailed, FREE OF CHARGE! Which would have been so impossible if I hadn't call the PPCRU number.
Please and please, the public should know and save all PPCU numbers, emergency numbers and all local authorities numbers on their phones. And more importantly use them whenever there's a need to.

naptu2: General Olonisakin was a 4-star general.
Some heads of state choose not to promote themselves. Jerry Rawlings was a flight lieutenant and Muamar Ghaddafi was a colonel. Most mainstream media keep addressing Olonisakin as Lt. General. I think they should be synergy between the Defence press and mainstream press. Thank you for the clarification. I'm sorry I forgot go ask the other time, can the president prefer to choose his ADC from other forces rather the NA? Like, can he pick from the Navy or Airforce?  |

naptu2: Obasanjo was a lieutenant general, but he was promoted to the rank of general in April 1978.
The following people were 4 star generals when they were head of state/president.
Yakubu Gowon, Murtala Muhammed, Olusegun Obasanjo, Ibrahim Babangida, Sani Abacha (Abacha became a 4-star general before he became head of state) and Abdulsalam Abubakar.
Since 1999 the chief of defence staff has always been a 4-star general.
Other people that became 4-star generals or equivalent, but did not become head of state were Domkat Bali and Augustus Aikhomu.
The rank of field marshal (5-star) is not used, but it is assumed that the president and commander in chief is a 5-star general and so he wears the rank of field marshal, admiral of the fleet or marshal of the air force when he wears a military uniform. Thank you for the prompt and ever factual expository. I had always thought Olusegun Obasanjo was a Lt. General. Thank you again. Do you know why Olonisakin, the immediate past CDS was a Lt. General and never promoted to (a 4star) General? Was it more of political than the regimental oversight? Buhari is referred to as Maj. General, do you know of any reason why he didn't promote himself to a full General (I mean, since he was the HOS)? Thanks again sir.  |

1. How did Oga Francis get to know about the shooting? Of course, 81 Division is less than 5km from Lekki toll gate and that's about 11mins drive, but, was he radioed or telephoned? By who? How did his informant get the information? Now, couldn't Francis call Bello on his personal phone or better still, radio him to stand down? Or was the Col. also partaking in the shooting himself that he didn't hear his phone ring nor the chatter from his radio? 2. The NA does have rules of engagement, right? Having found out, first-hand, from his testament, the atrocities of Lt. Col. Bello and the men of the 65 Battalion, what step has the General taken to bring the offenders to book? Have they been court martialed? Or, since it was an order, who gave it without carrying him (Gen. Francis), that is charged with the responsibility of that jurisdiction and more, along? Or, is Col. Francis another Sgt. Rogers that only report to the CinC? IS BELLO ABOVE THE LAW??!!!! 3. Why did the Army at first deny that, it wasn't her men that committed the genocide?! Is Maj. Gen. Eneche, that acted as the Force PRO not up to speed of the Force operations? PS: I am just another bloody civilian that doesn't know how the Military works, especially the Nigerian Army.  |

Nauttyprof: Christ never instructed that we practice it. God still speaks but He is not an Author of confusion.
It is you finding it difficult to comprehend the spiritual. Do you realize that Christ committed the great commission to no other persons but the Apostles. You still need to read more of the Bible, there is more to learn if you are open minded and you allow the Holy spirit to guide you.
I think I will have to stop here. It was nice having to discuss with you. I pray we all attain the full measure of Christ someday.
Shalom. Chai! The Great does not stop with the Apostles oooo. Please, the generation yet unborn will still take the Gospel to the cosmos if Jesus tarries. #Cheers!  |
Christianity Etc › Re: My Unbiased Summary As A Former Member Of Celestial Church Of Christ... by BitmapStudios: 4:59pm On Aug 03, 2020 |
Nauttyprof: It wrong to have reasoned it this way. Reading without getting the main point. There wasn't a stream bath but a wash at the pool to wash off the mud. Also, another point is that there was never another time where Christ healed the blind with the same approach or method.
Stream Bath is part of the practice of Cele and Bible never emphasised the need for this.
This Apostle stayed with Christ and were commissioned by Christ to carry the gospel to all part of the earth. If you don't accept the Apostle but believe your founder is right and you should support everything from him then there is a problem somewhere. If those who stay with Christ physically and Christ imparted them with every knowledge and also breath upon them in order to receive Holyspirit are not okay by you then this is a big problem. That aside, I gave you a Bible verse to read which is in the Book of Mark. Christ Himself validated laying of hands. Was Christ also wrong?
As regards practices, you and I both know the areas to be addressed why ask again? So because He did it once, it's not valid? Or it shouldn't be done now? I have said yes, we do stream bath and it's only when the Holy Spirit asks us to. Basically, Celestial Church is run on the instructions of the Holy Spirit. The Bible doesn't emphasize on it is myopic. Except you want to believe God stopped talking or giving instructions after the compilation of the Holy Bible. I have said it many times and if you don't get it this time, I'm sorry, I can't say more. The Jews couldn't accept Jesus not because He doesn't teach like one with authority but, the records that they had never said anything about a man from Nazareth can be the Son of God. Apostles were men like you and I, fallible. Oshoffa was a man. And this means, I cannot take their word for it 100%. How can you tell me to follow Paul's instruction of taking alcohol to an infirmity if Paul believes 'by His stripes we are healed' and that God is Jehovah Rapha? The same Peter that dined with Jesus and the first thing he would do is to start having believers bring monies and items at their feet? A thing Jesus never did. Please, the Apostles are not the custodian of the Holy Spirit, no one is. And that's the essence of the death and resurrection of Christ Jesus -to disperse His Spirit unto them who believe. Why is this hard to comprehend? You let this me and other good people of this forum know. #Cheers!  |

Nauttyprof: When Mud was placed on your eyes, so the next thing is to swim? Beside, the Bible said it was a pool. Christ healed the blind in divers form and not a pool style or practice throughout. Please, go read your Bible than quoting out of context.
As for laying of hands, you need to read your Bible. Please, check Mark 16:17-18. Also, asides this, the Apostles practiced the laying of hands for impartation of the Holy spirit. Please, can you see that it was emphasised in the Bible?
I never said Old was Inferior rather I emphasised the place of reading the Bible as a whole affirming the position of the Old in the New. I hope this is clear.
Read through my many comments and you will never see where I said it was diabolic or occutic. My point has remained the same, knowledge is progressive and as such many practices need to be corrected.
In conclusion, no one played the role of a judge, rather I only stated what the Bible says. Dear Lord. So, you point is, pool is fine but stream is not? Anyway, it's a good thing you're now saying God works in diverse ways. And should "washing" in the "pool" not Biblical, Jesus wouldn't have done it, yes? So, I take it you don't have first hand experience about the Celestial Church, 'cos, your assumption, from what I can deduce here is that, we do stream bath all the time and that's the only way we pray. Or perhaps, you haven't enquired of the Holy Spirit (that searched the deep things of God) to know if our practice(s) is/are not in tandem with the machinations of God. Hence, it is very safe to say, you are looking at the Church from the natural instinct. Apostles are not my validation as they are also man -they can make mistakes. The way I see it, every believer is an Apostle, an we (the believers of the 21st century) are the Apostle being recorded for the Bible the next generation would read. At a point, Paul was scolding Peter and other church elders in Jerusalem. The red letters are my guiding principle. Ok, in clear terms, what are the "practices" that need to be changed?  |
Christianity Etc › Re: My Unbiased Summary As A Former Member Of Celestial Church Of Christ... by BitmapStudios: 11:47am On Aug 03, 2020 |
Nauttyprof: You are addressing this matter from reasoning and not Biblical point of view.
Jesus didn't instruct the blind man to do stream bath, he only said he should go to wash and judging from the context, it was his face since Jesus rubbed mud on his eyes. That Elisha did this does not suggest that it becomes a practice.
Tell me where emphasis was placed on practising stream bath.
Your shepherds also hammer on tithes telling you when you don't pay the 10%, it is 'idakuda' meaning anyhow payment. I first heard this in Cele back then. So, don't act as if it is not said in Cele too. Besides, knowledge is progressive and the basis of tithe has been exchanged for giving. We honour God by giving to him. So, it is more of value than law of 10%. We give God based on honour and how much we value Him and this is not bound by law of 10%. This is why I keep emphasising on studying the Bible to know more and allowing the Holy spirit to interpret His word.
Well, Cele makes us to believe God works in certain way as it is more of practice than being led by the Holy spirit. There should have been reforms if the Holy spirit is taken as priority as knowledge is never stagnant.
Celestial does not depicts the heavenly as if it does, are you then trying to say ALL CELESTIANS ARE THE REDEEMED AND SAINTS?
Even the Bible does not support this. Daily, we work out our salvation. And are you addressing from the Biblical point of view? Lol... How do you wash yourself in a stream? But that's not even the point. The point is, what is the Biblical backing Jesus had to ask a man to go 'wash' himself in a stream? Couldn't He just decree like Elijah would? So, until we understand God is dynamic and not static, the things of the spirit would be foolishness to us, since we've not seen them before or have a record or 'emphasis' of it/them before. What emphasis are you asking for? Did Jesus emphasize on laying of hands? And yet, it's a common practice today, does that mean it's not of God? I never said we don't pay tithe in Celestial Church of Christ, I was driving at your logic of making old testament inferior or less irrelevant than new testament and that Celestial Church chooses it above new testament -which is false, by the way. And has the Holy Spirit told you Celestial Church of Christ is diabolical/occultic and not from and of God? Have you made your findings and you can say before God that Celestial Church is evil or does not practice the doctrines of Christ? This logic is super wrong, you know? Are all Redeemed Christian Church truly Redeemed? Are all Christians truly like Christ? So, asking if all Celestians are Redeemed and Christ-like is even Biblical myopic as Christ Himself warns us of false prophets and perverted teachers of the word. Ultimately, one's salvation if one dwells in the act and art of pulling down and judging another. Jesus "emphasized" on that in Matthew 7:1. I would rather stay on what God has called me to do and pray for others, should I sense in my spirit that they are not getting it right. #Cheers!  |
