Tmemzi:
You are very stupid for spewing this thrash. He should have requested.for his own window seat when purchasing his ticket!!!!!

Why r u so aggressive. The man stood up immediately. He stood up, didnt argue, didnt complain, didnt even plead to remain there, he stood up promptly!! Why the anger

Realdeals:
I don't know why people feel entitled when there are rules and regulations. These kind of actions are what brought Nigeria to where we are.

Jesus christ. Fear God o. Entitled how? He said there, the boy came and demand his seat, and the prof promptly stood up, what else do you want him to do. He didnt argue, he didnt complain, didnt say a word. He stood up and get on another seat! Wheres the entitlement here??

Juliusmalema:
To you a Yoruba man he wasn't looking for trouble, then what was he doing in someone's seat??

Mtcheew


You guys never ceases to amaze me?

All defending rubbish.

What's the meaning of this mindset you have. I am a Nigerian from the Yoruba tribe. Take your tribal fight elsewhere, ibo hausa yoruba...we are all human beings.

The whole scenario shows stinks saw an empty seat closer to the window, probably thinks no one would seat there ( as it happens oftentime, cuz not all seat gets occupied at the end.) And when it happens that the owner came and demand his seat, the prof humbly stood up and leave the seat for him. What else do you want him to do?? Is soyinka the one that brought the news on nairaland? Did soyinka refuse to stand up? What with the Yoruba comments ? Life no hard like that my brother. You wouldnt know if anything went down at the airport if these people didnt post it here. I blamed the blogger. Soyinka no cry say na must nau

Juliusmalema:
Wole Soyinka is the one looking for trouble. He should go and look for his seat number and occupy where is assigned to him.

Imagine a professor behaving like a rascal or a tout


what is he teaching then?

Soyinka didnt look for trouble, the writer said he promptly stood up isnt it? The ones looking for trouble are the one who felt this should get to the media.

Hell fire is in your imagination. The light of God Almighty has ended any hellish imaginations since millions of years ago.


Histar 1:22-26
22. Now while they wailed, the evil creature said,
I am your god Yahweh, the deceiver himself. I
have made the fire for you because you become
my followers on earth and then you are bound by
my laws.
23. For my laws cannot be broken. For if you
break any of my laws, you shall be punished here
forever.
24. Now while our wailings continued, a great
light came and lightened up the darkness of the
smoke of fire. And we heard a voice, saying, I
have come to free your souls. For you are seeing
the illusions of what you believe in. For you are not in any real fire, but you suffer the
imagination of the god whom you worship. For
like one on earth who take the weed of tekum
and see hallucinations of fire, so are you all.
25. For the afterlife is like a dream of never
returning. Now imagine the afterlifes of your
choice and you shall find yourself there.
26. And it was so, for every afterlife we all
imagined became the places we went. But the
imaginations were not our own, for our thoughts
were only connected to the thoughts of some
good gods who have themselves by their
imaginations made good afterlives thousands of
years before.

Interesting but Whats weed of tekum

America generates more then 500 gigawatts.....

“The main hope of a nation lies in the proper education of its youth” this quote has proven to be true through generations of experiences, proven to be true through the rise of wise nations, and the fall of ignorant ones. Education is the passport to the future; tomorrow belongs to those who are prepared or are being prepared today. Human cannot attain his full potential until he’s well educated.

It burdens the heart to know that the Federal government, under the sailorship of @mbuhari, are aware of this fact and yet choose to sparingly attend to this disturbing sitch.

The ASUU strike is an ugly gut-wrenching scene in a politically motivated pertubing movie in which the FG and the education leaders has forcefully thrown the universities students into.

Students sets out to withstand stress, unfriendly lecturers, hike in school fees, unfavorabled environment, long hours of study and many more deterrents, in struggle and in hope that there’s is light at the end of the tunnel only for the FG and ASUU to extend the length of the tunnels to the groaning of the students and their parents. We condemn this act and plead to the FG to reach an agreement with ASUU.

More outrightly disturbing is the issue of the NANS president who was voted to that position for the sole purpose of representing the students interest. Theses NANS representatives had the opportunity and media coverage advantage to table their grievances and ensure solution. It is disheartening that they were bought and turned into votes securers.
The NANS president even made an audacious statement, claiming he had the ability to secure 20 million votes for the APC from the groaning students suffering at the hand of the same party/government. This is an insane and downright empty promise.

It couldn’t be far from truth that this unrestrained talk of securing #20millionvotes by the nans president was inspired by the 150 million free cash they receive from the president. An unaccountable sum of fund to silence NANS and buy their loyalty. We refuse the nans flow of things. What we want is an agreement between ASUU and the FG. Let education needs be attend to and normal activities restored in various universities

We appeal to the FG to resume negotiations with ASUU and ensure that a resolution finally stands.


Long live Nigeria

That bible passage he quoted actually support the idea of first fruits.

This means Afonja’s are now endangered species. They’ll begin to die like fowls if this prophecy comes to pass

The only thing yolobas know is sexual perversion. The males only think with their uncircumcised preeks while the females can fvck for a loaf of Agege bread or less. I sincerely hope this prophecy comes to pass so we can be rid of these clawfaced barbaric animals called Afonja’s.

TonyeBarcanista:
Were you taught tenses, grammar, comprehension, writing etc in your native language? NO

Was your organisation education done in your native language? NO

Is your native language the language of business in Nigeria? NO

So having terrible command of the English language is a pointer that the person isn't intelligent.

Tenses, grammar, comprehensions were taught in native language yes! And the only reason English was adopted in Nigeria as the lingua Franca is cuz of the diversity in language. Not because English was a measure of intelligence. There are rich successful intelligent people who don’t understand English. Scientists, innovators, artiste genius etc. English is any other language like Korean, Yoruba, Hindu so on

If you however claim that learning and mastering a new language is a measure of intelligence, that’d be understandable

Daddy freeze will not say anything o

I’m � tired. I don’t even know what to believe again. You people should just leave someone alone to live his life. Whether there’s heaven whether there’s hell whether there’s life after death. Anyhow anyhow. Make I just live this life first, I go meet whatever awaits me there. Do not stress me.

2019elections:
Oga, u can't focus on religion alone ( genuinely) and excel.
Forget that. Most of all these full time clergy men embraced the calling because of the financial benefits. Remove tithes from churches and see pastors quit. Same way, remove allowances from the pay of politicians and see posts less attractive.

Heard

2019elections:
Let's assume a 16 year old wrote that without external or internal interference. Isn't this worrisome? A young man at this age channel his energy on religious activities rather than planning on how to make innovations.
I know some will say "what are my innovations?" I need not start trying to defend my personality. Let's take it from this angle, Americans, Asians and the Europeans are tagged less religious by the religious Africans (especially Nigerians), yet we always run to dem for pasture new rather than run to God or god ( depending on what u serve). Isn't that hypocrisy?

We are here celebrating largest church in d world with no significance to an average Nigerian while countries celebrate scientific innovations. Pastors or Imams go to d hospital when they are sick, some even travel to the so called unreligious countries for treatment. Why can't they just 100% rely on what they believe in?

The problem you have is the way you disregard anything that doesn’t appeal to your sense of importance. If I dump religion and focus on entertainment, there are some that would accuse me of focusing on entertainment where politics that have direct effect on people lives are neglected. You can’t suggest or enforce what you think it’s worth my focus on me. If I think my spiritual well-being farmoat trump other aspect of my life, that’s my choice not yours.

seunlly:
Seriously.
Probably you didn't wroted this yourself too

Son of a thousand father.

Lmao

maryjames9:
His father is a Pastoepreneur. Freeze is not threatening the only means of survival of his daddy. What do you expect?

Oh the boy told you dat in a WhatsApp chat?

I wanna ask a question. My intentions are not to insult you in anyway, just curious.

I’ve learnt first hand that most of these pastors you talk about don't coerce or force the people to pay. They always out of generosity propel themselves to give to these pastors. Now, If you ask the churches or pastors not to receive supports or tithes from the congregation, how do you expect the church to grow and expand the teaching of Gods word?? Or are you saying the churches need not to be run at all?? Even if this big men of God suddenly run down, are the churches going to run down too??

I think what you should be agitating for is that pastors need to be accountable and properly use this money to help the needy. You fighting a full blown war against the church, I said this because of the way you attacked the experience program which isn’t a platform to extort tithe or funds from the people. At this rate, you come against anything that pertains to churches. There are tons of intelligent people in the USA, Canada, China, developed countries like that, still, their churches pay tithes and support the ministry.

The Catholic Church receives tithes and offerings, there’s no church in the world that doesn’t receive tithe and support from her congregation, if they don’t, how else will the gospel progress. If your fight is against the accountability of Nigerian pastors, that’d be so understandable and logical, but this spilled over outbursts against anything church in Nigeria is in my opinion needless.

I have never in my 16 years of existence heard where congregations are coerced to pay tithe or support the church. In winners chapel, there’s even a platform where money are lend to borrowers with no interest, There’s a platform where after every service, food , clothes etc are shared among people that need them. In the cell fellowship centers in Winners Chapel, you can talk to your cell ministers when you are in need and those needs would be met ranging from paying school fees to paying rents and so on, you can’t tell me that’s a lie cuz I am living testimony to that. The buses to and fro Canaanland used to be free until running them became hard, now it’s only free for new converts.

So this things aren’t run on leaves but money. And this congregation are always happy to give to the church. After all when people spend huge amount in clubs on liquor, on gamble, or on the needy, on relatives, for friends, on habits, on hubbies.....when people spend on these factors no one complains. So why is that you see giving to church as a waste?

You blame the church for our country being the world poverty capital of the world. Do you want winners chapel or redeemed or MFM to start running Nigeria with the contributions of its congregations? Contributions that you still bash them about? Imagine what Bishop Oyedepo has done with covenant University of 10 years, now imagine if he has access to a vast national resources that UI or OAU enjoys. Why are you blaming the church for the nations poverty?? Was Jesus in charge of the nation’s economy in his time? Was he in charge of military? In charge of public hospitals? If you want the church to take over the affairs of Nigeria, why don’t you implore the government to handover to the church?? There’s the government and there’s the church. Both have their functions. The church can only voice out and advise the government on what to do, it’s left for the government to do something about it.

I know of course that freeze would spin and spin and grammar everyone against his opinion down but I think at the end of the day he knows the truth.

Re: Shiloh Sacrifice Scam by genkins(m): 3:08pm
Boboye4slim:
1 Timothy 5:17-18 ESV /
Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, [s]especially those who labor in preaching and teaching.For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain,” and, “The laborer deserves his wages.”

Point 1
This scripture does not say you should be giving pastors all your money.it does not say if you give pastors that you give to God.it only posits that those working for the church deserve a little payment for thier service and offcourse the elders deserve a little more.do you earn the same with your company manager?





Matthew 10:41-42

The one who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and the one who receives a righteous person because he is a righteous person will receive a righteous person's reward. And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.”

Point 2
This verse says nothing about financial or earthly reward. It also doesn't state that you should be giving money to the prophet.it says if you receive,give little as water(food) for nourishment.God or his disciples won't need money but
Accommodation or food to have strength to continue the gospel.


1 Corinthians 9:11 ESV /

If we have sown spiritual things among you, is it too much if we reap material things from you?

Point 3
Again this verse validates what I said in the first point.it does not say if pastors reap material things from you then you are giving it to God.Again if you read further down paul said he will rather die than preach and collect money.


Malachi 3:10 ESV /m

Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.

Point 4

Old covenant verse.not relevant for Christians


1 Corinthians 16:2 ESV /

On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come.

Point 5
This talks about donating for the upkeep of the saints..ie other brethren in service in some town not to one pastor.again it does not say if you contribute that it is to God.


Ezekiel 44:30 ESV

And the first of all the firstfruits of all kinds, and every offering of all kinds from all your offerings, shall belong to the priests. You shall also give to the priests the first of your dough, that a blessing may rest on your house.

Point 6
Old covenant scripture not relevant for Christians


2 Corinthians 9:7 ESV

Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Point 7
If you read down to verse 9 in context.you will see it talks about giving to the poor not pastor.


Romans 12:8 ESV /

The one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

Point 8
Again this verse has nothing to do with giving to a pastor.it talks about the gift of giving which everyone cannot have.giving to the poor or maybe to meet any specific need.

Mark 12:41-44 ESV /

And he sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which make a penny. And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.”

Point 9
This was before Christ destroyed the physical temple.you could worship God in the flesh(money or burnt sacrifice)but after the cross you can only worship him in spirit and in truth.if you read further Jesus said not one stone of that temple where the widow dropped her last two mites will be left standing.any temple that takes a widows last two mite instead of giving the widow,christ brought it down at the cross.

Recalibrate,you need sometime to come back to normalcy.i know.

This much sweat over the little token that goes to pastors from your pocket. I give to pastors cuz I appreciate them, when will you learn this isn’t about you or some efforts at getting returns. I give to pastors cuz I appreciate what they do for me every sundays. If giving to pastors doesn’t stop my obligation to the poor and the needy, why r you wasting so much sweat on my choice to give them. I repeat I give cuz I want to, cuz I appreciate what they do. It’s not a must. I spend on liquors, I give the needy, I help my friends in need, I give to my relatives, and I also give to my pastor. Why do you have problem with that. It’s not coercion, listen again, I’m. It being coerced to do it. I do it willingly and for no return !!!!

genkins:
I won't reduce myself to throwing insults like you.i just debunked everything you quoted up there.give your money to the poor.then you can make heaven.matt 25:31-46.dont be rude,listen and learn,take corrections.you can only worship God in truth and spirit.know the truth.read the Bible by yourself leave those pastors,they are after your money.you can support a church,the Bible is not against that but don't think there is a blessing attached to it.dont expect reward here on earth but in heaven.your pastors cannot tell you this because they need to to believed the opposite and thus make money from your kind.cheers

You still making the same silly assumption I scold u about now now...... I give to church and yes pastors coz I want to and I can!! And I do not expect anything in return!! . I will reduce myself and throw insult at you cuz you don’t mind your business

babeosisi:
God has left shiloh sadly my people are gathering there to be scammed

Now see what became of Shiloh and why Shiloh is not the location for us believers in Christ.

Psalm 78 v 60
Then he abandoned his dwelling at Shiloh, the Tabernacle where he had lived among the people.



Jer7 v 12 'Go now to the place at Shiloh where I once put the Tabernacle that bore my name. See what I did there because of all the wickedness of my people, the Israelites.

Jer 7 v 14 So just as I destroyed Shiloh, I will now destroy this Temple that bears my name, this Temple that you trust in for help, this place that I gave to you and your ancestors.

Jer 26 v 6 then I will destroy this Temple as I destroyed Shiloh, the place where the Tabernacle was located. And I will make Jerusalem an object of cursing in every nation on earth.’”

Jer 26 v 9 What right do you have to prophesy in the LORD’s name that this Temple will be destroyed like Shiloh?

You see from scripture, Shiloh had its time of glory and then was destroyed.
God is not in Shiloh

Mumu if you’re not brain dead, you’d know winner’s chapel Shiloh is only symbolic! A symbol to represent where God answers prayer! Mountain of fire isn’t actually a mountain where fire burns, tb Joshua’s synagogue doesn’t mean it’s the place where Jesus teaches presently...... it’s called representation. I’m sure u know this but since you hate the man, his message won’t mean shit to you
