I think we let in 5 goals or 4 against Germany,Ike left the gloves for Enyeama after 2002 world cup.I will try n get you the details.

First-choice Ike Shoronmu was desperately unfortunate to break his hand in the final game of the season at club side FC Zurich; his deputy Abiodun Baruwa had a poor outing against Yugoslavia, and the veteran Peter Rufai let in five goals against the Dutch. His call-up alone was an indication of the seriousness of the problem, as he had been on his way to vacation.

No, it was one goal. That goal was scored by Andreas Möller.

I remember that match. Ike Shorunmu was at his best as usual. He unfortunately had an injury that caused us to invite Baruwa who messed up against Yugoslavia. So, Peter Rufai was called out of retirement.

It was Peter Rufai who then conceded 5 goals against Netherlands. Kanu scored our only goal.

No o. It was Peter Rufai that let in 5 goals against the Netherlands.

Against Germany, we conceded only one goal, and Ike Shorunmu was the one in goal.

Ike Shorunmu was our first choice back then, and he was a wonderful goalkeeper. He got injured, and Abiodun Baruwa was called up. Baruwa conceded 3 against Yugoslavia, and Peter Rufai was called out of retirement.

Rufai let in 5 against the Netherlands.

Baruwa was not a bad goalkeeper. He only had a bad outing against Yugoslavia. People judge him based on that match just as they judge Willy based on a single match.

Anyone reading this would think that Willy was a bad goalkeeper when in fact, he was a very sharp goalkeeper. Just because of a single unfortunate game, he was called Agbonav-basket.

It is very unfair for you to paint Willy as a basket.

.And just so you know, the tithe law was instituted primarily for the needy (which included the Levites).

Please the levities are not the needy, the levities are preacher of the gospel. Go and read the old testament

Do you know the meaning of needy?

The Levites got tithes instead of allotment of lands, which meant they could not grow their own foods, so they were dependent on the tithes that people from other tribes were mandated to give them.

That was why in the time of Nehemiah when people stopped bringing their tithes to the Levites, the Levites returned to their farms and abandoned the works of the Temple.

I also learned that the portions assigned to the Levites had not been given to them, and that all the Levites and musicians responsible for the service had gone back to their own fields. (Nehemiah 13:10)

Christianity Etc › Re: Giving Your Tithe To The Church Or To The Needy: What The Bible Really Says by BluntBoy(m): 12:58pm On Oct 13, 2019

alBHAGDADI:
Go and read Genesis 14 to see that Tithing existed as ALL THINGS long before God even promised Abraham the land of Israel.

Was that Tithing predating the Law mandatory? Was it a Law? Was Abraham mandated to tithe as the Israelites after him were? Make up your mind. Do you tithe the Abraham way (under no compulsion) or the way of the Law (mandatory)? You cannot keep quoting the Law to justify Abraham's freewill tithing.

Why is it not written that the mentioned professions didn't pay tithe? Where is it written that it was only farmers that paid tithe?

He ordered the people living in Jerusalem to give the portion due the priests and Levites so they could devote themselves to the Law of the LORD.

As soon as the order went out, the Israelites generously gave the firstfruits of their grain, new wine, olive oil and honey and all that the fields produced. They brought a great amount, a tithe of everything. (2 Chronicles 31: 4-5)

Every tithe of the herd and flock--every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd's rod--will be holy to the LORD. (Leviticus 27:32)

From the verses above, anyone with half a brain can reach a simple conclusion what tithes meant. They were foods to be eaten. They were land-based products and were products of farmers. Land-based agriculture system consist of crops and livestock.

Look, it wasn't only agricultural produce that Jesus label as tithe alone. He also stated that tithe can be paid from all you possess which can include money. Remember the parable of the Pharisee who boasted that he pays tithe from all that he possess. Jesus didn't condemn him for paying tithe in that manner. Rather, he condemned him for something else.

Wrong!!! Jesus labeled only agricultural products as tithes.

"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cumin. (Matthew 23:23)

Mint, dill and cumin are agricultural products. Nowhere did Jesus say you could pay with money.

As for the Luke 18:12 that you quoted. A tithe of all I have does not necessarily mean all his properties, but all of his properties that can be tithed under the law such as agricultural products. Just as usual, you have quoted a whole verse out of context. A tithe of everything means a tithe of everything that can be tithed.

As soon as the order went out, the Israelites generously gave the firstfruits of their grain, new wine, olive oil and honey and all that the fields produced. They brought a great amount, a tithe of everything. (2 Chronicles 31: 4-5)

You can't expect Jesus who is God to pay tithe. Secondly, just because it wasn't recorded that the Apostles paid tithe doesn't mean it never happened. Lastly, where is it mentioned that farmers paid tithe?

If Jesus was God, who did He pray to? Why did He get baptized before beginning His ministry? If He could get baptized like every Jew, why was there no need for Him to pay tithes if everyone else was mandated by Law?

Christianity Etc › Re: 12 Ways To Identify Pharisees In Your Church by BluntBoy(m): 10:43am On Oct 13, 2019

ADEWUMIMichael:
HOW TO IDENTIFY PHARISEES IN YOUR CHURCH

1. They go to work early but come to church late.

2. They beg their boss when they err but threaten to leave church whenever there is a misunderstanding.

3. They work hard to be promoted at work but treat the work of God with levity.

4. They pay all their dues in the workplace but refuse to pay tithe in the church.

5. They buy costly things for their boss to get favour but can't even buy airtime for their pastor.

6. When they are not going to be in the office, they take permission ahead from their superior; but expect pastor and elders to pay them visits when they miss church without notice.

7. They fear and respect their boss than their pastor and even sometimes more than God.

8. When they are sick they manage to go to work but they cannot manage to come to the church.

9. They take official query serious but handle divine rebuke with disdain.

10. They tolerate their colleagues in the workplace but cannot tolerate the brethren.

11. They turn off their phones at workplace, but use calls to distract other worshippers in Church.

12. They can work overtime in the office but get offended at the pastor if he's not closing at the stipulated time.

https://www.naij.com/1110465-top-12-ways-identify-pharisees-church.html

Question:
Is there anyone in your church? .

You missed everything.

A Pharisee is one who displays an outward appearance of being religious.

So, he would come to church early even though his heart is far away from church.

He will love his pastor even more than God.

When they are sick, they will still come to church to make the pastor praise them.

So, with the few corrections I have made, edit your post.

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house
That a clear direction, bring it to my house. Not to give to a begger at the road.

And just so you know, the tithe law was instituted primarily for the needy (which included the Levites).

It is a charity system, and it was meant to benefit the needy.

So, even if you must tithe, you should give it to the needy.

God emphasized the need to cater for the poor.

For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink,

I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'

"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'

"He will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' (Matt 25: 42-45)

God does not need your money. All He needs is for you to help the needy among you. Helping the needy is the same as helping God. Feeding the needy is the same as feeding God.

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. (James 1:27)

Look at you regurgitating what you have been deceived with. You even said Jesus never preached tithing. Who was talking below, saying tithing should never be neglected?

Matthew 23:23 (KJV)
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Do you know that the tithing law was tied to the Promised Land which is why tithes were purely land-based, and money wasn't even encouraged. If you had to redeem your tithes with money, there was a slight burden.

Why didn't carpenters, fishermen, and others pay tithes?

Was there no money in those days, even in the days of Jesus Christ? And yet Jesus Christ hinted tithes to be land-based agricultural products.

There were a lot of fishermen in those days, and yet nowhere was it mentioned that Jesus Christ (a carpenter) or his disciples (fishermen, tax collector, zealot and others) paid tithes.

A God that created heaven and earth and EVERYTHING doesn't need paper money to function.

A God that requires payment to protect you shows he's not almighty and al powerful.

Stop being scammed by pastorpreneurs.

Don't mind them.

Even the Levites, for whose sake tithe was primarily instituted no longer collect tithes because there is no functioning temple.

There are levites scattered abroad, even in the United States, and they are working for their money.

The Jews still practise tithing, but they eat their tithes, and only the farmers and herdsmen do. Many of the levites in Israel work for their money.

God no longer lives in those types of houses.

Even the levites are now scattered abroad, and because no temple or a levitical priesthood needs maintenance, even the levites are now working for their own money.

But your pastors, who are not of that priesthood, want your tithes by all means.

Good books have impact on ordinary citizens.

Don't be ignorant.

Children books, for instance, expand our children's knowledge. Have you ever taken a course on child psychology? Then you would know how important books are in speech therapy.

Also, there is a projective test known as Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) that uses stories to measure personality.

Many scientific ideas came from books.

Submarine idea came from undersea travel in the novel Twenty Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne.

Taser from a novel by Victor Appleton.

Helicopter from a novel by Jules Verne

Credit card from a novel by Edward Bellamy.

Other scientific ideas got from books are earbuds, defibrillators, and many other things.

The Big Brother franchise was inspired by a novel 1984 by George Orwell.

Aside all these, books also provide entertainment. Books have shaped the world. Why do you think dictators always fear writers. If writers are overrated, why do dictators fear them?

Why were dictators like Stalin scared of writers? Because they knew that writers could overthrow their governments by simply using the pen. They knew people could rebel by reading books and learning one or two things that could give them the courage to overthrow their oppressors.

I also don't miss Psquare. I don't miss Mo'hits (I liked their Booty Call song, though). I was never a fan of Maintain and KC Presh, especially KC Presh.

I ought to miss Plantashun Boiz and Remedies, but I don't know why I don't. Maybe it is because I think of the crew members individually. I like Tony Tetuilla's My Car and his collabo with TicTac. Then Eedris's Mr Lecturer. Eddie too released a track back then which was partly shot in an airport. Maybe it is one reason why I don't miss the group.

But Styl-Plus, I miss that group. Shiffi and Zeal did come back together, but they couldn't break into the Nigerian music scene. Tunde has gone solo, but his songs sound too foreign. Moreover, in this period where wacky songs are getting relatively better attention, there is no how Tunde can gain that much attention that Styl-Plus gained.
