jesusjnr: . ... Benny Hinn who has been an advocate of obtaining blessings through sowing of seeds, faithful payments of tithes and offerings, delivered a full-throated rejection of the practice.
In his statement, Benny Hinn made it clear that he will never ask for $1,000 or whatever amount again because he thinks the Holy Ghost is just fed up with it. ...
Readers Beware!!! The bold part was only thrown into the article to blend into or give a wrong perception of the actual message Benny Hinn is passing, which is the next paragraph. This is how agents of devil obfuscate God's word about tithe, offering and seeds generally through twisting of words and doctrines of great men of the faith. They twist the words of men of faith. Readers Beware!!!
jesusjnr: Is Benny Hinn now an Antichrist for speaking out against the so-called "prosperity gospel"?
Just asking, because we were called Antichrists for doing the same thing.
Now this is coming after over forty years of his ministry, so imagine how many would have been deceived and mislead by such a false doctrine, especially considering the extent to which men respect such ones and would rather follow their teachings instead of that of Christ?
Always displaying your lack of comprehension and arguing aimlessly. The man clearly stated he will be stopping the practice of placing price on things of the spirit like that guy who became blind for a season in Acts of Apostles tried doing.
Tithe for example is still scriptural as proven by the words of Jesus in Mathew 23:23 and even at that the term "prosperity gospel" is a loose term used to attack a wide range of doctrines. I challenge you to define what prosperity gospel is to you if you disagree with the last statement before this and let's see.
I expect you to correct your own doctrine of "Apostle Paul's Holy Spirit teaching being Erroneous" Or "Jesus not being a servant and son of His Father" instead of trying to count the population of souls Benny Hinn must have misled with his doctrines.
Denikayan: The only reason why I would support such ostentatious lifestyle is if all the church members are rich.
Its absurd to have a private jet and be spiritually leading people in abject poverty.
Its not Godly!
Nigeria is worlds poverty capital but out president has about a dozed aircraft in the presidential fleet at his disposal. The question now is, does Buhari travel more than some church leaders? Do the church leader force money out of people?
grandiose4ever: They shouldn't have splitted the school fees by nationality.
To me, maybe they should consider other African countries but Americans and Europeans can be charged high. Some schools there charge as high as 10,000 USD.
They are mostly practicing Christians but occultist and satanic agents will try and argue that religion is the cause of black world or black man's backwardness.
gobuchinny: Paul lacked alot. If you have read the bible you will know. Severally he said he hungered and thirsts. He said he has learnt to abase and abound . Abraham didnt tithe as a tradition or custome but did it one off. The law of circumcision was a covenant which was instructed by God to Abraham. Y didnt Abraham obey the sabbath? Y aren't u obeying the sabbath? Because they is no monetary gain. You perverted carnal human. You and u criminal spiritual fathers obey it because you want God to bless u materially thinking God is ur Russian roulette ..
If you obey the law of tithe then you are obligated to obey all the law. Let me ask you, are we not all priest and kings so how can brethren collect tithe from his brethren. Remember that in the old testament they were designated priest who were descendant of Aaron who did this..do we have Levi's today? Ain't we all able to approach the throne of God? Do men still offer sacrifices on our behalf like in the old testament? Perverted lazy Christian Christian that wont study and understand the new testament but always looking at scripture to line his pocket. You are they that trouble the brethren and you are cursed thinking that you must obey the law to please God. Your portion is hell if you dont repent.
The painful part is the fact that our leaders go to the center and shout about poor citizens to federal govt in order to get more money but once that allocation comes, they focus on religious activities like sallah ram and mosque building. And now it is Islamic calendar of all things.
khalifjgusau: You don't know anything about Islam my brother, praying in the mosque is compulsory for every male Muslim, and it is obligatory for every man past the age of adolescence who is able to hear the call to prayer, because of a great deal of evidence, you are only allowed to pray on the street if the mosque is full, if not, your prayer is not valid...
Stop trying to justify your demonic religion. There is no justification for using public funds belonging to muslims and non muslims to build place of worship for muslims alone. Also there is no good enough reason for also blocking public roads like suuni muslims do when praying. .Before you rant about Islam in your reply, remember Shiite are being hunted down today because they blocked public road in 2015 and other muslims have been doing sane with no repercussions.
Builderman: Some years back, after a Sunday morning Mass in Abuja, a young and a good looking lady walked up to me. She was holding a fat brown envelope. She handed the envelope to me and said I should please pray for her.
I asked her about the content of the envelope and what particular intention would I be praying for? She told me that she started working just a month ago and that she came to thank the Lord and to offer the first fruit of her work for God’s blessings. What was in the envelope was her salary for that month. Her first salary. The entire money! Everything!.
In all honesty, I was speechless not for lack of words but for being unable to know where to begin. Inside me I was like: do people still entrust everything they have to God in a child-like simplicity like this? I was really moved.
In my heart, I said a prayer for her, that type of prayer that is deep down, it was as though it was the Holy Spirit Himself that was praying through me. I was feeling the answers to the prayers even before I finished praying.
Then she knelt down, I laid my hands upon her and blessed her and the money.
After prayers, I asked her to tell me how much was in the envelope. She said Eighty Thousand Naira.
Then I asked, “how much covers your transport to your work daily?”.
She said “approximately N1,000 naira to and fro, Father.” That means for 27 work days, it would be N27,000.
Then I spoke up again, “Sorry o, I am asking you too many questions, how much do you feed daily when you go to work?”. She answered “It depends. If I want to eat so well, I spend 800 naira with drinks, but mainly I spend just N500, and sometimes I carry food from home.”
So, I made the calculation in my head. Let say she spends 500 naira daily, 27 work days would be 13,500 naira. I went ahead to enquire about her accommodation and I discovered that she stayed alone in an apartment she just rented. We made the calculation by dividing the annual rent by 12 months and we discovered that if she was to pay rent monthly, it would be N12,500.
Her monthly electricity and water bill with other fees for house maintenance was put at N10,000....On phone calls and data, we approximated it to be N5000 monthly. Her monthly DSTV subscription was around N3,600 for DSTV family bouquet.
When you put all the expenses together and subtract it from the N80,000, she would be left with N8,400 to buy food stuffs and other things in the house. These are the expenses that she wss sure to spend every month. We had not even talked about other things like make up, doing her hair, clothes, gifts to family and even savings. This is a huge sacrifice, in my judgement. I intentionally asked her those questions so as to ascertain the depth of her sacrifice.
I brought out the envelope, bless it for the second time and gave it to her. I looked at her countenance and I knew she was not too comfortable with my action. Then I took time to explain the Bible to her. That was when I discovered that so many people do not truly understand how God works.
When God asks us for first fruit or for tithe or for any sacrifice, it is not so that He will eat it. No! He has no need of our money. When He asked Abraham to sacrifice his only son, it was not because he liked seeing the blood of innocent children.
When He asked Abel and Cain to make a sacrifice to Him, it was not because he ate fruit or even drank blood of rams. It is simply to test how committed we are, how willing are we to leave everything to Him. Do we, like Cain, select offerings that we no longer desire and give to Him or do we, like Abel, empty everything to Him?
This lady that brought the first fruit began to understand for the first time. Right from when she put the money in the envelope to bring to God, God had already accepted her offering. The minister must not spend the money. It is just that most of us ministers are unfortunately greedy. And we use God’s name to cover it up. We often see the part of scriptures that favour our stomach.*
Theologically, when you give to God, He transforms that gift and gives it back to you. The bread and wine people offer before mass are transformed to the body and blood of Christ and given back to the people to eat and drink.
The son Isaac that Abraham gave to God, was transformed to be a channel that would bring....forth the fulfillment of God’s promise and given back to Abraham. The offerings of bread and fish people brought were prayed upon and given back to them to eat and they were filled, still there was left over.
The water they filled at the wedding in Cana is given back to them as wine.. The Ugwu Kelvin that my parents offered to God, is given back to them as a priest.
The money that the young lady brought to me as her first fruit is blessed and given back to her as pure gift from heaven.
festacman: The truth is that billionaire Abramovich deployed what Arsene Wenger termed "financial doping" to make Chelsea FC win trophies. While this happened, other teams suffered 'ban' imposed not by FIFA but by relative limited cash to spend. Now, Chelsea are tasting what it feels to have a poor daddy.
The good news is that it is just a ban that will come and go before they revert to intimidating others with their money once again. Before then, they are welcome to the real world where small teams will come to your home, pee in your sitting room and walk away.
Unfortunately, Frank Lampard is the ESCAPE GOAT in bad times that will surely become the SACRIFICIAL LAMB when the good times come. SMH
Stop talking out of hatred and inferiority complex. Did Chelsea steal the funds of other teams or did they complain in the 90s when other teams outspent them and won trophies?
id911: I used to dislike Sowore because of his numerous lies about the opposition and his support for the lifeless Buhari but I'm beginning to have a rethink. I admire his boldness in planning the #RevolutionNow Protest knowing fully well he would be arrested by the tyrant he once supported.
When we truely reclaim our country from the current vultures, even this useless Justice Evelyn Maha and her likes will be buried alive
Finally some people have through long, irrelevant posts, out of context scriptures, strife etc, derailed a beautiful thread. How many will dare talk about the spiritual angle to cultism? Many rock it and suppress the consequences, thereby attracting the innocent ones who only see the seemingly enviable part of it. OP has tried sha.
Officialgarri: The true test of a leader is to lead right in front of the battle. Kanu is somewhere acting porn in Uk, and these ones wants to face deportation for him. If Kanu is serious, let him join the protest in Japan.
I just pray these guys do something to hurt Buhari... Just as they did to Ahmadu Bello, Tafawa Balewa and other prominent northern leaders..... . Body go tell them.
EnthronedbyGod: Chebum is an evil garment used to transfer someone's spirit from one place to another , so as to tie them down at a place quite far from the location of their physical bodies.
Sometimes they tie them down in a bottle and sometimes in a cage or spiritual prison.
Some people never pass a particular level in life, no matter how much they try, because they have been tied down.
One might be in a prison and make a little progress without knowing he's in a prison, people who are destined to be billionaires end up as millionaires, celebrating their achievement not knowing that they are below God's purpose for them.
Some who are meant to be professors end up as MSC holders because they are tied down.
Please I would love to hear more about this spiritual prison. i think it is personal to me and take it so.
Mrshape: Private schools you teach can't pay good mathematicians. Thus they settle for engineers and unfortunate mathematician.
This is not bragging, I have a host of more than 10,000 teachers of mathematics, The mathematicians have vast knowledge and understanding in maths than us.
Were you see an engineer doing better than a mathematician in secondary school maths you know it is due to experience in teaching mathematics in secondary school for a long time, Take matrices for example and engineer student do solve determinant mainly by co factor method, By a mathematician has a host of method to solve that of which your textbook those not even cover in secondary school like the Chinese methods that solve for all nxn matrix determinant, Let your circle be among good mathematicians you will fell the inferiority if you are a newbies.
How many mathematicians can do those things you are attributing to mathematics. Engineering isn't a field for lazy minded people and it definitely breeds stronger mathematicians too.
