Efiko: ..morally no body is better, the bible declares that "...all have sin and have fallen short of the glory of God" We were all domed for eternal damnation but for the redemption plan of God through Jesus Christ our Lord ONLY.

Salvation is a free gift from God, not by works that any man should boast for our righteouness (so call morality) are AS filty rags before the Lord.

I love your statemet "We have 1 target which is heaven not church" and the ONLY way to heaven is through Jesus Christ the Son of God; by believing in Him and Practicing his techings as contained in the Holy Bible.
Knowing Christ alone is not a guaranty to heaven like St Paul said
James 2:14-26
Faith Without Works
Is Dead
14 What does it profit,
my brethren, if someone
says he has faith but
does not have works?
Can faith save him? 15 If
a brother or sister is
naked and destitute of
daily food, 16 and one of
you says to them,
“Depart in peace, be
warmed and filled,” but
you do not give them the
things which are needed
for the body, what does
it profit? 17 Thus also
faith by itself, if it does
not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say,
“You have faith, and I
have works.” Show me
your faith without your
[ a] works, and I will
show you my faith by
my[b] works. 19 You
believe that there is one
God. You do well. Even
the demons believe—
and tremble! 20 But do
you want to know, O
foolish man, that faith
without works is dead?
[ c] 21 Was not Abraham
our father justified by
works when he offered
Isaac his son on the
altar? 22 Do you see that
faith was working
together with his works,
and by works faith was
made perfect? 23 And
the Scripture was
fulfilled which says,
“Abraham believed God,
and it was accounted to
him for
righteousness.”[d] And
he was called the friend
of God. 24 You see then
that a man is justified
by works, and not by
faith only.
25 Likewise, was not
Rahab the harlot also
justified by works when
she received the
messengers and sent
them out another way?
26 For as the body
without the spirit is
dead, so faith without
works is dead also.

Haters loving Mary is not by force
All the Protestants and pentecostal church in Nigeria put together is not a match to catholic church.
*This our faith*
I believe in God, the father
almighty, creator of heaven and
earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his
only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power
of the Holy Spirit and born of
the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius
Pilate, was crucified, died, and
was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven and is
seated at the right hand of the
Father.
He will come again to judge the
living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

Christianity EtcRe: Catholics Commemorate The Assumption Of The Blessed Virgin Mary by Controversy: 2:01pm On Aug 15, 2013
# My soul magnifies the Lord And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior; Because he has regarded the lowliness of his handmaid; For behold, henceforth all generations shall call me blessed; Because he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name; And his mercy is from generation to generation on those who fear him. He has shown might with his arm, He has scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart. He has put down the mighty from their thrones, and has exalted the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has given help to Israel, his servant, mindful of his mercy Even as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his posterity forever #
After Mary gives her famous
consent to becoming the
Mother of God, -- “Behold the
handmaid of the Lord; be it
done to me according to thy
word” (Luke 1:38) -- she goes
“with haste” (1:39) to help
Elizabeth, who is delighted to
see her. Our Lady then
expresses her joy in the
Magnificat.
Clearly Mary, in hastening to
help her cousin, is focused on
service to others. In this way
she glorifies the Lord in
reflecting (and “magnifying”)
His goodness and love. And, of
course by becoming the Mother
of God she will help Him
redeem us for our salvation in
His Passion!
Speaking of magnifying,
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
once referred to our Blessed
Mother as being like “a
magnifying glass that intensifies
our love of her Son.”
Note that Mary’s joyful claim
that “all generations shall call
me blessed” in no way takes
away from her humility. If she
seems to boast here, it is much
as St. Paul does later on in
scripture when he says
“whoever boasts, should boast
in the Lord” (2 Cor 10:17), that
is to say, in God’s work being
done through us.
In this regard, the Magnificat is
more than a prayer of praise. It
also reminds us about the
essential link between humility
and holiness. Just as God has
“regarded the lowliness of his
handmaid” and “has done great
things” for Mary in making her
the Mother of his Son, so too
“he has put down the mighty
from their thrones (with his
own might!) and has exalted the
lowly.”
(Note also our Blessed Mother’s
humility in referring to herself
in this prayer, as she does in
giving her consent to Gabriel
mentioned earlier, as the Lord’s
handmaid, his servant!)
As her Divine Son later stressed
“Whoever exalts himself shall
be humbled, and whoever
humbles himself shall be
exalted” (Matt 23:12, also in
slightly different words in Luke
18:14 and Luke 14:11).
Jesus wasn’t saying anything
new here, either! We read
similar thoughts in throughout
the Old Testament such as in
the Psalms and in this example
from the book of Sirach
“Humble yourself the more, the
greater you are, and you will
find favor with God.” (Sirach
3:19)
The line about God filling “the
hungry with good things”
resonates later in the Gospels as
well, when our Lord says
“Blessed are they who hunger
and thirst after righteousness
for they will be filled” (Matt 5:7)
. This serves as a good reminder
for us to “stay hungry” for God’s
graces in praying and in reading
His word in scripture.
And as for the rich being sent
away empty? This line refers to
those who live for wealth and
power and feel they have
everything figured out. These
people in, effect wish to be Gods
rather than God’s. How can our
Lord fill those who are already
full--of themselves?
How about you? Does your soul
magnify the Lord? We may
never be able to approach Him
from Mary’s level of sanctity as
the Mother of God. Still, we are
all called to be saints
nonetheless.
Your good example, like our
Blessed Mother’s, can help
others in their spiritual growth.
Do people see Christ’s love and
goodness in you? Are you
letting God work within you to
accomplish His will? Let Mary
help give you the graces you
need to follow her Son and His
Church in praying the
Magnificat.
As St. Ambrose once said in
referring to this wonderful
prayer, "Let Mary's soul be in us
to glorify the Lord; let her spirit
be in us that we may rejoice in
God our Saviour."

hillsate: Wow! Never knew catholism is ladened with a lot of comedy.
Nice one guys, nice comedy.
1. Only in comedy Would Mary be the closest to Jesus in Heaven. She ma don dey for Godhead be that?

2. Only in comedy will Mary be called the spouse of the Holy Spirit. Spouse? Very funny.

3. Only in comedy will it be said that Mary never gave birth after Jesus, haba! Mary had a lot of s3x from Joseph. History even had it that Joseph died early because he couldn't keep up with Mary's libido.

4. Only in comedy would people centre a lot on Mary (Creature) rather than the creator (Jesus).

5. Mary cannot pray for you. She cannot intercede for you. She does not even pray for anyone. The only person who intercedes for us is Jesus.

6. The Mary in heaven today would suffer a heart attack if God shows her what her name is being used for by the catholics.

7. Mary was just a vessel God used to fulfil His plans for man. She was a good and righteous woman no doubt but she was human and equal with any human.
You are neither a Christian!
1 Corinthians 2:14
But people who are unspiritual
don't accept the things from
God's Spirit. They are
foolishness to them and can't be
understood, because they can
only be comprehended in a
spiritual way.

Efiko: ..i feel you dear, i was a cathiolic before (but not anymore); i married from the cathiolic too (but my wife has stopped those doctrines of men which are parkaged as the commandments of God)

..take time-out to re-evaluate what you believe, the best way to hide a lie is in-between the truths & when you believe/practice a lie for dongky years it becomes the truth to you but the truth is absolute.

..the clause "It was thru her (Mary) we got our salvation" is very very out of place, dont say that gain pls. Salvation is though Jesus Christ, the son of God. The One Who was (existed before creation), Who is(..lived among men) & Who is to come (coming as a lion to judge the world)

...Mary is in heaven enjoying herself, make it your ambition to join her by believing/practicing the truth
Your problem is ignorant! When you stoped going to catholic church did any 1 come begging you to come back? The world is free, believe what you like. We have 1 target which is heaven not church
Stop preaching to Catholics because morally you are not better than them

PoliticsStudents, Activists Protest Poor State Of Education In Lagos by Controversy(op): 6:21am On Aug 14, 2013
Over 1,000 university students, teachers, pro-democracy and human rights activists this morning held a rally in Lagos, western Nigeria, to draw attention to the poor state of education in the country.
Organisers of the rally said they were protesting against poor infrastructure in public schools, high school fees and government insensitivity to the plight of teachers at all levels in the education sector.
The protest is coming on the heels of the indefinite strike embarked upon by members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, nationwide, to protest poor funding of education by the government.


The peaceful protest which started at the secretariat annex of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Yaba, was led by Comrade Abiodun Aremu of the Joint Action Front, JAF, a coalition of students and civil right groups.
Other leaders of the group who participated in the march include radical lawyer, Bamidele Aturu and Comrade Chibuzor Asomugha, who represented the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, ASUP.
The protest march led to the disruption of traffic along Ikorodu Road. Motorists and commuter bus drivers spent long hours on the road as the protesters marched, sang and danced to sensitise the public about their cause.
In his speech at a rally held at Palmgrove, Comrade Abiodun described the march as the beginning of a series of protests lined up to make governments at all levels change their attitude to education.
He called on parents, traders, artisans and others to join the protest and force government to do something about the poor sate of education in the country.
“This is just the beginning of a number of protests that we have lined up in the coming days. We are going to be peaceful in all the protests. As you can see today, there are no street urchins or ‘area boys.’ The aim is to draw government attention to the numerous problems bedevilling education in the country. We need the support of everybody. If we don’t do this, nobody is going to do it for us,” he stated.
Comrade Asomugha, on his part, said it is time for the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and other relevant groups to take the bull by the horn and fight for the rights of the downtrodden.
“Education is not only for the rich, Nigerians should wake up and reclaim what belongs to them. We, members of ASUP, have resolved to join the protest to salvage the education sector. We want to identify with the spirit of peaceful protest, which is a veritable tool to fight a just cause,” he said.
