Make sure you do not miss Heaven.

One of the greatest gifts God has given to us is to immediately ask for forgiveness through Jesus Christ whenever we fall into sin. Asking God for forgiveness whenever you fall into sin, sets you on the right track again for eternity in Heaven.

If you are a believer, claiming God's righteousness and speaking in faith that you are His child does mean you will no longer apologize and ask for forgiveness if you fall into sin at any time. You must repent whenever you find sin in you.

Many people are in hell fire because they failed to ask God for forgiveness for sins they committed before they died. Some may have assumed that the sin they committed was little and did not require repentance. Some may have claimed God's righteousness without deliberately apologizing and asking God for forgiveness, for any known and unknown sins.

Finally, God wants us to be holy and righteous everyday of our lives: but if at any time you find sin in you, repent of it, and also tell God to forgive you for the sins you do not know about.

Note: If you die with any sin not repented of, you will find yourself in hell fire: or if rapture takes place when you are alive, you will miss it.

tctrills:
The modern idea of a rapture is not a Christian teaching.
The bible teaches that Christ will come back and reign on earth.
Yes, many saints will welcome Him in the sky but He is not taking them to heaven, He will rule as king here on earth for 1000 years.

1 Thessalonians 4:17 "Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord"

Church is not just about dancing, singing & worship praise songs, preaching only sweet sweet things etc. It is a place to prepare your soul for what you will face after death or when rapture happens.

Biblical proof of rapture is in the passage below.

1 Thessalonians 4:17 "Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord"

May God show us mercy in Jesus name. Amen.

What kind of messages do you hear when you go to church? Are they messages that make you comfortable in sin?. Does your church preach about eternity, heaven, hell fire, rapture, holiness etc? If someone talks about holiness in your church, does the person look odd or overzealous? Are your church members always ashamed to hold physical book-like Bible?

If what they always preach to you in church is only about succeeding in business, favour, impact, prosperity, riches, marriage & relationship, open doors etc, then your soul is starved. Though such messages are good, but you need to be made ready, prepared and always conscious of eternity & rapture.

Fight for your own soul today. Hell fire is so real.

During wedding celebration period, to make it exciting, can Christian couples get worldy music that will make the place pleasurable?

Playing worldly music is a choice that a couple may desire to make, but if they want to involve the HolySpirit completely in the wedding celebration, He will never accept worldly music. Worldly music will work if couples desire to bring in the flesh and worldliness into their celebration, but if they want the presence of God in such wedding, God's presence will not conform to worldly music.

Its your choice if you want to play worldly music or not; but if you are dancing worldly music in your wedding and the rapture takes place, you ain't gonna make it.

One major reason why marrying a virgin should be a top priority: Paternity certainty.

In this age of rampant paternity fraud, marrying a virgin gives you that initial peace of mind. You’ll be 100% sure that your first child is yours even before you think of DNA testing. If after the second or third child she decides to start acting up or showing her "true colors," she is free to pack her load and return to the streets where she belongs.

Yes, marrying a virgin has its own downsides, but if your priority is peace of mind and securing your lineage, then the "greater good" should be your best bet. Avoid stories that touch.

A good and faithful wife is a good achievement.

If they have dealt with you in several relationships dont ever enter a toxic marriage. Your life was not designed by God's to suffer and suffer and suffer.

Pray to God genuinely and look well before you marry.

One day, you will surely see yourself in another "world". You need to be prepared for that other "world". One is Hell fire and the other is Heaven.

It is only believing in Jesus Christ, accepting Him and repenting from your sins that can take you to Heaven. Jesus is the only way to Heaven.

Will an African woman choose a tall, dark and handsome guy over a white German, Canadian, French, USA, Irish, British etc??

If a tall, dark and handsome guy is from USA or Europe, will ladies prefer such guy to a white guy from Germany, Italy, Canada, Franc, USA, portugal, Netherland etc?

Do several ladies only prefer tall, dark and handsome African guys to fair African guys, or is the choice universal?

Marriage should have dignity.

Restitution:

(1) Did you steal or defraud someone that you can still contact today, repent from sin, apologize to them & restitute. If you have stolen government money, falsified figures, connived to steal from your office etc, repent and restitute.


(2) Have you cheated in courtship or legal marital relationship? Did you commit adultery, Have a side chic in marriage, sleep with your EX or someone else few days to wedding day, have kids as a man with another woman outside your marriage, have kids from paternity fraud, slept with someone's wife, slept with someone's husband etc? repent and make restitution to your partner: and if you are the one who cheated with the partner go and restitute. You can meet a mature born again Christian to assist you.

(3) Gossip and False Accusation: Did you destroy someone's image? repent and apologize to them. Did you intentionally accuse someone falsely? Repent and apologize to them: and if they are serving any punishment because of this, go and confess to the punishing authority etc, that you falsely accused the person. If the false accusation was a mistake as a result of wrong information, still do same.

(2) Did you offend anyone so badly? Repent and apologize.

Do not just rush to make restitutions, pray about it, seek Godly counsel and Guidance before proceeding.

Avoid things that will make you do restitution.

Some sins don't require restitution, but some require restitution.

Forgive those who have made complete restitution to you, not forgiving them will take you to hell fire.

Repent from sins and accept Jesus today.

If you keep a dark secret to the grave that is worthy of restitution or confession, you may be stopped in eternity from entering heaven.

The HolySpirit can help you in restitution and make you go unpunished after restitution.

May God show us mercy and help us in Jesus name. Amen.

Divine intervention in Jesus Name. Amen.

When a sinner accepts Jesus and genuinely repents from all sins, old things are passed away and all things are become new.

But lets look at these questions.
(1) If a man has stolen vehicles and now rides them, should he continue riding the vehicles after he gets born again or should he return them?

(2) If a man secretly takes his neighbour's children and kills them for rituals, and his neighbour keeps looking for these kids: now if the man gets born again, should he watch his neighbour look for the kids or should he confess the act?

(3) If a married woman has four children and she fully knows two of the kids are not for her husband, and her husband is boasting of the kids and spending millions on them. Now, if she gets born again, should she watch her husband "progress" in deception, continue boasting and spending millions?

When someone get's born again, their names are written in the Book of Life, but as time goes, if they have things they need to return, confess, restitute, the Holy Spirit begins to remind them of these things for them to restitute it. If they fail to do it, it becomes disobedience and their names will be removed from the Book of Life.

Restitution not done can hinder a Christian from entering heaven, and if you think you can take a secret worthy of confession to the grave, you may find yourself in hell fire after death.

The HolySpirit can help you to have a successful restitution without punishment.

He told Adam? Can you post the audio clips of their conversation

Go and open your bible.

paxonel:
It is you that is creating the name holiness or worldliness. As far as God is concern, everything he created, whether you see them good or not are clean and holy before him

You are wrong. That is why he told Adam and Eve not to eat a particular tree. He created the tree.
God created sex, but fornication is sin.

paxonel:
Tattoo or no tattoo, it means absolutely nothing.
Circumcision or no circumcision, it means absolutely nothing
Dreaduck, hair plaiting, ear piercing, etc

You know what my grand ma told me one day?
She said there was a time in this Nigeria were any woman seen putting on trousers, she will be tagged ashawo.

You can't fight certain change and succeed

God does not move an inch if the world is changing into worldliness, fleshly lifestyle or corruption. God's standard of holiness remains forever.

helinues:
How does having tattoos, dreadlocks affects the preaching

Where in the bible was it written that you must not have a tattoo or dreadlocks

So if you are on tattoos and dreadlocks, people will believe you when are preaching right Or wont they see you as someone they need to preach too or give moral advice?

Will you take serious a male evangelist if you see him sagging his trouser to preach? If a so-called born again christian goes to bleach his or her skin, or goes for BBL, will you take them serious?

Now if you say: "show me in the Bible where doing dreadlocks for guys is a sin". What if I tell you to show me in the bible where sagging trouser & wearing big chain, smoking weed and bleaching are clearly called sin? you may never find it: but are they good for a born again Christian? Never.

If you are truly a born again Christian, you must walk in the Spirit. You cannot be worldly or fleshly: and if you truly have the Spirit of God working in you, He can never tell you or permit you to do tattoo, dreads etc. It is only the fleshly and worldly nature that can make someone desire to appear like the world.

A true born again Christian must align with Jesus Christ always, and will never put up an appearance that will hinder the gospel or create doubts in the mind of those who will receive the gospel from them.

Note: God will never adjust His standards to fit into the world or trends. And If you say things have changed, God's holiness and judgement in eternity has not changed.

An ex-lover can attend a person's wedding: but if a bride or groom insists on no ex-lover attending, please respect it.

One of the first destruction of marriage may come from sex with EX or someone else few days or weeks before wedding day. It may be the hidden cause of some domestic violence, unnecessary anger, divorce, lack of care, hatred, abandonment, rejection, having side chic etc in marriage. It may lead to Paternity issues....

Many ladies are single today probably because they will sleep with their EXes or someone else few days or weeks or months to wedding day, when their dream man arrives to marry them.

If you have had lots of sex, abortions, even had hundreds of body count in the past: it is the past. You can turn a new leaf. But it is unfair to have a good fiance and to still "insult" such a fiance by sleeping with your EX few days to wedding day, while you fiance who may have spent millions in bride price & other things may not even know what has happened.

Some, many or most of these sex with EX or others few days or weeks or months to wedding day are not even done with protection. How selfish people can be in gratifying themselves without probably considering if such act could bring a child.

Finally, everything about marriage should be kept very sacred. Men should be very faithful before wedding and in marriage. Ladies too should be faithful before wedding and in marriage.

We have good marriages with faithfulness.

Cum4me:
Soon marriage will be a thing of the past.

If someone has a good partner, they should not take them for granted because they are good.

You are right .

There are responsible and faithful people.

ABU is a prestigious university.

Falling into any particular sin over and over again may cause addiction, and addiction is one of the hardest things to break. Even when born again, you may have to watch over your past addictions carefully so you dont fall back into it.

If you have not started betting, porn, masturbation, hookup, visiting prostitutes, adultery, fornication, gambling, smoking, taking alcohol etc, please dont start because you could go into great addiction that may take you years to break.

If you are addicted already, Jesus can set you free today.

The quest to collect phone numbers from Ladies may be on the decline. Even when some guys collect the phone numbers, they may not call.

As a guy, do you still hustle to get phone numbers from Ladies?

African men don’t cheat. We are polygamous in nature. It’s women that cheat.

Cheating is cheating.

All or most developed countries in the world move on education, that is why if you go to these countries, you will likely see many prospering companies and many graduates working there. You will see advanced engineering, medicine, architecture, information technology, agriculture etc. in several or all of these countries. Most or all of these countries may prefer to invest so heavily in education than mere entertainment, skit making etc. They may prefer to fortify their young ones in science, technology, mathematics, information technology, physics, chemistry, associated practical, etc., than mere entertainment for excitement.

Again, have you seen any person from a developed country saying "Education is not it or education is scam?". You may only hear this from a citizen in a failed or failing country.

What mainly drives the world today is from education. Phones, Sky scrappers, AI, internet, medicine, good sound system, social media applications, electronic gadgets, powerful weapons etc, are all products of education. There are things that can hardly be done except from a person who went to school or from a person who got idea from a person that went to school.

Let someone help clarify it properly.

You may have heard that Africa came from Ham the cursed son of Noah: but is it true? If so, why didnt great men of God and good believers in Africa join together to prayerfully break the curse? The curse is man-made and not made by God himself. It can be broken.

The major thing that brings foreigners to Nigeria is major church programs. It is not actually "Tourism", but it is the major aspect that brings foreigners to Nigeria. This idea of the church being the major source of tourism, I got from someone.

If Redeemed, Dunamis, Winners, Deeper Life e.t.c are having major programs, that is where you may see the largest number of foreigners in Nigeria.

During the time of T.B Joshua, many foreigners entered Nigeria.

Without the church, Nigeria may be so scanty of foreigners visiting.
