Please what's the cost of approval for a bungalow in Rivers State, Ikwerre LGA precisely, thank you?

Janosky:
Jesus is not Almighty God.. in your opinion, wrong.
Jesus is son of God, right.
God Almighty is son of God... Contradiction..

The contradiction occurred because you gave an interpretation of what I did not say

And I do not think I did a typo error.

Your argument is Jesus is not God.

To emphasize your point you said Jesus is not the Almighty God.

Such is used for our understanding since the original language needed to be interpreted into english.

The names of God:

YHWH.
El.
Eloah.
Elohim.
Elohai.
El Shaddai.
Tzevaot.
Jah.

It is from this Hebrew words that we get our translation into english.



God is God. The God Almighty. The LORD GOD Almighty. The LORD GOD. The Alpha and Omega.
The I AM. The Lord of hosts.



Acts 3:13.. the same Greek word means "son/servant". Yes a word can have 2 meaning but depending on the context of the sentence it finds itself. It cannot never be interchanged in the same sentence.

servant
Παῖδα (Paida)
Noun - Accusative Masculine Singular
Strong's Greek 3816: Perhaps from paio; a boy, or, a girl, and a child; specially, a slave or servant

Matthew 12:15-18. Isaiah 42:1.. Jesus Christ is Jehovah's Servant.

DappaD:
I’m sorry but the highlighted is in error, Sir.
Go and read Acts 3:13 from the ASV, NKJV, NIV, ESV, NASB and Amplified translations. Any one you choose but drop the KJV first.
Jesus is and will forever be the servant of the Almighty God. Compare Isaiah 42:1, Matthew 12:18, 1Corinthians 15:28

DappaD:
According to Genesis 2:7, man doesn't have a soul, rather he is a soul with the breath of life in his nostrils. This ‘spirit’ simply refers to the breath of life. Compare Job 27:3 KJV
So at one's death, he himself returns to the dust of the earth while his breath of life returns to God. Ecclesiastes 12:7



If the ‘spirit’ in humans is a person then what about the animals in that verse? Do they also have personal spirits when they die? Of course not. The animals, along with humans all have the same force that makes them to be breathing creatures(souls). Compare Genesis 7:22



That Bible passage wasn't talking about the resurrection. Immediately Jesus let up his breath and expired, an earthquake occurred to prove that the man whom they had just murdered had divine backing. Matthew 27:54
The earthquake was so powerful that it tore through the crags of the burial sites/tombs and so passers-by saw that the earthquake revealed the newly buried corpses and when they entered into Jerusalem, they reported what they saw to others.
If it was really resurrection that occurred, then the other Gospels should have also noted it but no, resurrection was something to occur in the future. 1Thessalonians 4:16, Revelation 20:12





The Jewish criminal by the side of Jesus must have heard upbuilding reports about the man(Jesus) who was impaled next to him so since he observed the Jews clamouring for the death of such a righteous man, he knew that genuine prophets of God had faced a similar fate. Matthew 23:35, Mark 6:4

That spurred him to put faith in Jesus and he made a request to Jesus to remember him in his Kingdom but Jesus corrected the notion he had and promised that he would be favourably remembered and resurrected on Paradise earth.
So Jesus didn't hold out the same promise to this man that he had made to his disciples earlier about being kings and judges in God's Kingdom. Matthew 19:28, Luke 12:32, John 14:1-3

Why do we say so?

About 3years earlier, when Jesus met with Nicodemus, he explained that one must first be born-again i.e. baptized in water and[b] chosen by holy spirit as an adopted son of God[/b] before such a person can rule in God's Kingdom. John 3:3-6

So I don't misunderstand you...
Can you please explain the bold "chosen by the holy spirit".........


The person would then be brought into a covenant(agreement) with God for a kingdom. (Luke 22:28-30, Revelation 1:6) provided he remains faithful til death. 2Peter 1:10



I guess you are referring to the existing convenant He promised man that He will bring to fulfillment in his life as long as he remains faithful.

The man at his side hadn't gone through any of these processes so he's not qualified for heavenly life, rather he'll be resurrected in the future as an unrighteous person alongside billions of other humans. Acts 24:15, Revelation 20:12

Janosky:
Bros, you are entitled to your opinion, thanks !
In your opinion, my belief "Jesus is NOT God Almighty is wrong, but you are here telling Janosky to continue preaching "Jesus Christ is the son of God" .
Can't you see your contradiction?

Your God is a servant of whom?

ladyteeks:
No, the Engineer I used started to inflate prices and materials so I couldn't trust him again.

DappaD:
Nice write-up I must commend you but you didn't still show me where Jesus said he was God or where this ‘Trinity’ is located in the Bible yet?



I do not really understand why trinitarians like hovering over inconsequential details.
@John chapter 8, Jesus Christ and the Pharisees were having a little feud over who really was doing the will of God(John 8:41)
Now why would they be having this discussion if Jesus was already God?
Jesus said those words to prove that he had existed before Abraham, not that he was God. John 8:58, Revelation 3:14
After all, angel Gabriel and the rest of the angels in heaven will also say the same thing that they existed before Abraham and they would be correct because they were present when the earth was being created. Job 38:7



The Scriptures give quite a number of definitions to the meaning of “heavens”. Genesis 1:8, Deuteronomy 26:15, Ephesians 6:12
I am not new to this sir.

I like to read NKJV....in Genesis 1:8...the letter H is in capitals.

Do you also know that “earth” has more than one meaning?



Read Acts 2:29,34 from your Bible please. The aforementioned people died, and returned to the dust of the ground. Psalm 146:4, Ecclesiastes 3:20

Ps.146.4 - His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish.

Where does the bolded above go to?

Eccl.3.21 - Who knows the spirit of the sons of men, which goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, which goes down to the earth?


None of them are qualified for heavenly life so they will remain in the dust until the day of resurrection. Acts 24:15


Matt.27.52 - and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;
Matt.27.53 - and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

In the above where did the raised bodies of the saints go?

After all, Isaiah 26:19 said that those who will be resurrected in the future in earth are “residents in the dust” or those who “dwell in the dust” would be resurrected. Compare John 5:28,29

illicit:
Okay

I mean to say that while your understanding of the quoted verses might be apt, it might be your personal perception


Those words can mean another thing to another person from his own perception

Now where you will be wrong is if you try to insist that your own understanding supersedes that of others, which is what most ' christains ' like to think


If all christains understand the Bible the same way, there will be no Catholics , Anglican, Methodist, deeper life, celestial, cherubim etc

They all read the Bible yet they have different doctrines....

The way I understand the Bible is that God is the supreme being and has sent several prophets , Jesus is one of them, albeit the most important.... I believe in Jesus as a means to God.... Believing in God is the most important thing to me....


So in your understanding, am I a christain

Please, what will be the signs that one is born again?

Thanks

Janosky:
Yes..
Jesus is NOT the God Almighty, Jehovah his Father.

John 1:1 in English versions. The traditional rendering in English is: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ... [It] is clear that in the translation "the Word was God", the term God is being used to denote his nature or essence, and not his person"
(In other words, the Word, Jesus was godlike, divine ('a god'),not the God Almighty.) .
en.m.wikipedia.org › wiki › John_1:1
John 1:1 - Wikipedia.

As for who goes to heaven, Jesus Christ settled the matter, Matthew 5:3= Rev 14:1-3. John 3:3-5.
& Who lives forever on earth,
Matthew 5:5= Psalms 37:29 & 2 Peter 3:13 Revelation 21:4-5..

Isaiah 43:10-12, Acts 3:13, John 20:17, Jesus Christ is a Jehovah's Witnesses, a servant of Jehovah, his God & Father

DappaD:
Good morning.



Well, even Jesus said he used symbolic language in most of his illustrations. Matthew 13:10-13, Mark 4:34
Other parts of the Bible attest to the fact that some aspects of it are written in figurative language as well. 2Peter 3:16, Revelation 1:1

In fact, almost the entire book of Ezekiel features some illustrations and enactments that cannot be taken literally if it should be understood.



The facts is that Jesus himself never mentioned that he was God. Mark 10:18, John 14:28, 20:17
His faithful disciples addressed him as the Son of the living God. Matthew 16:16, John 20:31 see Luke 1:32 also.
Jesus is the firstborn Son of all of God's creation. Colossians 1:15-16 and God has other spirit sons including Gabriel. Job 38:7, Hebrews 1:7





If I should ask you these questions:
1. What are those going to heaven going to do there? Because the Bible says they're going for an assignment.
2. At what point did God change his mind that humans should now occupy the heavens since the Old Testament makes no mention of anyone ascending to heaven? Compare John 3:13
3. The hundreds of millions of angels that God created weren't enough to occupy the heavens, so God somehow needs humans there to do what?

Would you be able to answer these questions?

nairalandankrah:
They believe that parts of the Bible are written in "figurative or symbolic language."
While they follow the teachings and example of Jesus Christ and honor him as their savior and the son of God, they believe that Jesus is not God and that there is no scriptural basis for the trinity doctrine...
Jehovah's Witnesses believe that only 144,000 people will go to heaven and that all the other people who obey God will live forever in their various countries..

No one can be like Christ....


A Christian is a follower of Christ


There are many doctrines in Christianity and so how do you define your own Christ's doctrine when you have Catholics, angiicans, Ethiopian church, Protestants etc....


Which of these doctrines are you talking of

spyder880:
A range, when used in building construction terms is a piece of iron bar or hollow square pipe used to flatten an area of plastering work, like a space of wall to maintain a uniform level of plastering or screeding.

When they mention range plastering, it means the type of plastering that a hollow square pipe is used to finish the level. This is usually a better quality plastering since all the surface will maintain a uniform level. There are however plastering works which are done without this ranging tools, the workers just plaster and use what we in the field call "eye gauge" to determine if the surface is level.

Workers may demand more money for range plastering as against other types of plastering works.

Where is your area ?

Bros, watch what you’re buying though. A respected engineer bought some cement 2 weeks ago and the ramp he used it to cast has not dried up till date.

He must have gotten rebagged cement.

A lot of all these unscrupulous elements understand that everyone will be looking for low pricing right now and they’ll do anything to offer you ridiculous price.

I only buy directly from Lafarge and reliable partners.

Hopefully I’ll share some information later today about this technology. I’m very close to a company that produces brick in large mass.

Relationship is everything.

This is one thing I always make self builders to understand when they wanna chook eyes into DIY. If it’s about saving money, just forget it. If it’s about getting good value for your money and ascertaining quality on every aspect of the build - Go Ahead.

I built a carcass of a massive dwelling for someone with 15m and he was like in his whole life he never believed foundation of such building can cost less than N4m

I told him it can only be possible if you have a very good relationship with the builder/contractor/tradesperson who’s well equipped.

In his case:

- I didn’t bill him specially for formwork for raft; columns and beams; and slab
- I produced over 15,000 sandcrete blocks for him at N40 lesser than market price
- He’s not paying premium on concrete works. I have a mixer on standby for the project.
- I supplied him sand at almost 10k lesser than market price.
- I got him cement at official rate
- He never had to build site storage as I shipped my container storage to the site for few nairas as rental fee.

All these things are what increases the cost of construction.

n3xt:
Is he producing on your site or at his place?

You’re getting a very good deal if he’ll bring his mould to your project at that price. Keep and hold such guy tight o!

I charge between 20 - 25k for rental of my mould (1,000 pcs) for 2 weeks and that excludes cost of transportation.

Mould Rental is a huge business. It cost several thousands to invest in it.

Including mould rental?

Hello guys

Pls if you know much about interlocking, kindly give out some tips. Things are tight right now and I want good quality for this job.

My interlocking man told me he will collect 2,800 per sqm . Few red and Black color, and the rest will be regular white.
Also he said he will mix granite to it. Is this a good deal and how can I monitor him to make sure he uses quality materials throughout.?

He told there are 2 types of molding style , 4sqm is what most people use in the house while 3sqm is for roads.then he said , he will do 4sqm molding style for me . Is this right?

Pls give me suggestions and ideas cos I don’t want him to cheat me because I want quality job.

Thank you

The pictures posted are not bricks and should not be confused with USA/British bricks as we know it. These are Compressed Stabilised Blocks (CSEB). Burnt (kiln) bricks as obtain and prevalent in the USA/Britain are a different proposition. These can bring class to a building.

Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks (CSEB) are laterite stabilised with 10% cement and compressed by machine into blocks. I have done research on this about four years ago with a view to building (donating) two blocks of classroom to my secondary school. My findings then revealed CSEB are not cheaper as you need all the elements of normal Sandcrete blocks and more. So you still need your normal foundation with Sandcrete blocks (CSEB don't like water longterm), you would need rebar (for some design), columns and beams even for bungalows. You would also need to plaster the internal walls and paint as normal to achieve clean straight lines internally.

As CSEB are smaller than Sandcrete blocks, you would need more CSEB for same size building as you would with normal blocks. The problems are bricklayers normally charge near the same or even more per CSEB and because you need more CSEB, your labour cost to lay the CSEB is higher.

The cost saving is that you do not need to render the external walls and paint but this cost saving is offset by the need to use rebar for some design and introducing columns and beams here and there. You can ONLY save if you have a mountain of free laterite on your site, so you don't need to buy laterite and you are doing it FULL DIY, no labour cost and you cut corners by limiting the use of rebar, beams and columns.

When i was in primary school there was this dude in my class every guy hated because he was effeminate in nature and would prefer to play ten ten with the girls than play police and thief with us guys. We all thought he'd wasn't normal.. Anyways in 2014/2015 the dude cane out and that was when i understood his behavior in primary school.

That was when it dawned on me... God created them that way. Just like he created some people blind, some lame, some so dumb that they can't coin two sentences on a public forum without adding insult, some as imbeciles, some ladies with more testosterone than oestrogen etc... So.. Yes they will make heaven... As long as their heart is pure.


**MODIFIED*** I JUST NEED TO ADD THIS BECAUSE IT'S WHAT I BELIEVE**

IF GOD DECIDES TO JUDGE PEOPLE BASED ON THE RULES IN THE BIBLE.. ESPECIALLY THE ONE IN (Math 5:28 — But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.) NOBODY GO ENTER HEAVEN... ATLEAST NOBODY BORN IN THE 20TH CENTURY DOWN TO WHEN THE WORLD ENDS WILL MAKE HEAVEN.


Na just fact. Only someone who has the bad habit of lying to himself would disagree... So make we free all this sin talk and just live our best lives by embracing happiness, doing good, loving our neighbors as we love ourselves, and embracing the humanity in us.
