‘Hi Daejumong, was Jesus perfect while on earth in human form?’ Jesus is the Son of God and came to the world in human form,born of a woman and grew like every normal guy! He was born without sin but with a human flesh that predisposes to Sin! Regarding perfection, I would like to look into the scriptures: Matt 5:48 ‘’Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.” Here Christ didn’t ask people to be perfect like Him but like God the Father! Mark 10:18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone’’ Here Christ said no one is good except God. That He shouldn’t be called good! Hebrews 5 7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. 8 Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered 9 and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him Verse 8/9- Christ learned obedience from His sufferings and later was made perfect to become the source of salvation for all! Jesus as the son of God is perfect but while in the world in human flesh, it appears He was not. He however attained back His Godly perfect state immediately He rose from the dead! Pastors, Bible scholars and mature Christians with better/contrary answers can put in the comment section.

Players that can help Eric Chelle succeed as Super Eagles’ coach! Now that Chelle has been confirmed as Eagles’ gaffer, we all have to rally round him to support him if we love our national team. During his time with Mali, he favoured the 4-3-1-2 formation and looking at his pressing style of football, I would advise he uses the following players with energy, ruggedness, skill and toughness necessary to prosecute the games. Nwabali( Okoye ) Aina(Osayi), Ekong(Osho),Bassey(Tosin/Ajayi),Bruno(Zai Onyeka( Ndidi) Onyedika( Uche) F. Bashiru(Nwakali) Iwobi(Simon/Chukwueze) Osimhen(Boniface) Lookman( Orban) I believe these are the best crop of players to implement the gegenpressing style of Chelle. Onyeka and Onyedika are solid, hungry and rugged defensive midfielders who will protect our fairly solid defence very well. Bashiru is also tough and has good scoring and defensive abilities. These would give room for Iwobi to play close to Osimhen and Lookman feeding them with passes without bothering too much about defending! These passes will definitely be turned into goals by the lethal duo of Osimhen and Lookman! On paper, this team looks solid enough to win all our remaining matches! The substitutes are also very good. If the players can give 100% and quickly adapt to Chelle’s demanding style, we will definitely qualify for the mundial.

Why is Pope Francis/The Vatican allowing Gay men to become priests? What are their arguments? Equality and Non-Discrimination: Sexual orientation should not be a barrier to serving in the priesthood, as long as the individual is committed to celibacy and the teachings of the Church. Inclusivity: Allowing gay men to become priests can make the Church more inclusive and welcoming to LGBTQ+ individuals. Vocation and Calling: A person’s calling to the priesthood should be based on their spiritual and pastoral abilities, not their sexual orientation. Addressing Shortages: With declining numbers of priests , opening the priesthood to gay men could help address the shortage of priests in many regions. Personally, I don’t agree with the Pope/the Vatican on this. These arguments are not tenable and are against the Bible! I would advise members of the Catholic Church to protest against this new decree as I believe many of them especially in Africa do not agree with the papacy on this.

Gay men can now become catholic priests so long they remain celibate. Women can’t become priests irrespective of their sexuality! Only men can become a Pope. ——-New Vatican guidelines! What’s really happening in the Catholic Chuch? Gay men can become priests while straight women can’t? That means we could have a gay Pope in the future! Why is the church bending its rules just to suit the world? Why is the Catholic Church appearing sexist and anti women? If a gay man can become a priest , why can’t a woman?

Is it true that some pastors take their side chics to the Redemption Camp(city) and lie to their wives they are going for prayers or programs? The city owned by RCCG has over 5000 houses and 200,000 inhabitants.There are banks, supermarkets and police station in the camp. Wives please follow your hubbies(Pastors or not) for Xtian programs and if you can’t, please video call him regularly! Men should do same to their (pastor) wives ! Remember, ‘ the kingdom of heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by force’ -Matt 11:12.

In the 80’s and early 90’s when Deeper life, Scripture union,Apostolic faith and classical RCCG were the main Pentecostal churches in Nigeria, people were better morally and the country was good with less corruption! Christians were solidly grounded then and if you were born again , people often called you ‘SU’ ! The moment prosperity preachers came into the church in the late 90’s with swag and vibes , money was glorified over morality and the people sadly flocked to these churches and corruption became very rampant in the country with everyone trying to get rich by all means! Churches began competing in auditorium size, number of private jets/universities and number of billionaire members! The spiritual development of the congregation was thrown to the background. Rich people were made pastors/deacons irrespective of their spiritual status and often sat in the front seats even if they were known to be morally bankrupt! The moral and economic decline in Nigeria is directly related to the decline in the moral fabric of the church! In the words of Bro Gbile, American prosperity preachers corrupted the church in Nigeria with their books and teachings in the early 90’s. ‘Give me back that old religion. It’s good enough for me’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLrcKHKtV5g

Is it time for Prophetess Evelyn Joshua to remarry? The 55 yr old widow of late Prophet TB Joshua has been alone since 2021! Is this healthy for a relatively young woman of God heading a large ministry like the Synagogue ? How would the church react if she comes up with her new man? Would the members who were loyal to late TB Joshua accept her and the new man? The Bible provides guidance on the topic of widows remarrying. 1 Corinthians 7:39: “A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.” Romans 7:2: “For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.” Prophetess Evelyn Joshua has mourned her husband for more than three years now. She has been lonely and deprived of the emotional and consummation dividends of marriage! I strongly believe it is time the church leaders pressure her into getting remarried . She is a woman of God and not God. She has blood flowing in her veins. She is beautiful, intelligent, anointed ,well groomed and wealthy. She will never be short of suitors! 1 Corinthians 7:9 "…for it is better to marry than to burn with passion"

Nigeria’s new coach, Eric Chelle is from Mali! He is allegedly going to earn $50,000 a month! Finidi George,a Nigerian legend who handled the team earlier earned 15M Naira($20k then but 10k now) while Eguaveon as technical director and make shift coach earns 3M Naira($4k then but $2k now) NFF technical committee employed the new gaffer based on his performance at the last Afcon with Mali as they were impressed with the pressing and attacking style of play which sadly could not take them beyond the quarter final stage! I suspect that Chelle would end up as Ragnick at Man Utd who was brought in because of his trademark gegenpressing philosophy . He however failed at Man Utd because the players found it difficult adapting to his demanding style! The pressing style of Chelle would be difficult to implement with the big superstars in the Super Eagles! It is a very demanding style that can increase chances of injury especially on terrible African pitches! His highly attacking style may also further weaken our not too strong defence! All in all, Chelle’s appointment was a knee jerk reaction by a desperate NFF technical committee. He is no messiah and bringing him at this time appears ill-advised! I would have allowed Eguavoen to continue with the job as he knows the team and more experienced with the African terrain. He also has a better CV than Chelle but the NFF thought otherwise. I only pray this decision would not cost us the World Cup ticket!

Pastor Funke Adejumo set to be ordained a Bishop! Is it right biblically for a woman to hold such exalted position in the church? Biblical References 1 Timothy 2:12: This verse is often used in discussions about women’s roles in church leadership. It states, “I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.” Some interpret this as a prohibition against women holding positions of authority, such as bishops. Romans 16:7: On the other hand, Paul acknowledges Phoebe as a leader in the church of Cenchreae, which some interpret as evidence that women held leadership roles in the early church. Denominational Views Traditional Views: Many conservative denominations, such as the Roman Catholic Church and certain evangelical groups, interpret the Bible as not allowing women from being ordained as bishops or pastors. Progressive Views: Other denominations, like the Anglican Church and some Protestant groups, have interpreted the scriptures differently and have ordained women as bishops. For example, the Church of England voted to allow the ordination of women bishops in 2008. All in all, whether a woman can be ordained as a bishop largely depends on the theological and doctrinal belief of the specific denomination or church body.

Jesus was Never Gay! Powerful gay people spread lies to justify their actions! In the Gospel of Matthew 19:3–12, Jesus is reported to have referred to the behavior of eunuchs to illustrate a desirable approach to sexuality: "For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake." The term "eunuch" normally referred to a castrated man. Several theologians and Bible commentators have interpreted this passage as indicating Jesus's support for complete celibacy. Jesus is the Son of God and came to the world in human form to die for us sinners! He was completely celibate! He never married nor was He involved in anything sexual or lustful with anyone. It is sad to see Bishop Gene Robinson of the Anglican Church, a known gay bishop , trying to justify his sexual orientation with lies against Christ. Same goes for powerful gays like James I of England and Fredrick the Great! All in all, my earlier post was just to let Christians understand that the battle for the soul of the church didn’t start today hence the need for us to remain prayerful, vigilant and steadfast in defending and protecting the faith from all forms of evil intrusions! |

Jesus was gay and was having an affair with his disciple, John the Beloved- Gay Anglican Bishop, Gene Robinson and others! Saint Aelred of Rievaulx(1110-1167)(venerated by Catholic Church and some Anglican churches as a Saint) in his work De spiritali amicitia ("Spiritual Friendship" referred to the relationship of Jesus and John the Apostle as a "marriage" and held it out as an example encouraging friendships between clerics.James I of England(King of England)(1566-1625) defended his relationship with the George Villiers of Buckingham: "I wish to speak in my own behalf and not to have it thought to be a defect, for Jesus Christ did the same, and therefore I cannot be blamed. Christ had his son John, and I have my George." Gene Robinson, born May 29, 1947 is a retired gay bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire discussed the possible homosexual inclinations of Jesus in a sermon in 2005. Robinson's claim has been criticized. Frederick the Great, the king of Prussia from 1740 until his death in 1786 wrote to similar effect in his 1748–1749 poem Palladium, which includes the lines: "This good Jesus, how do you think He got John to sleep in his bed? Can't you see he was his lover!’ These guys have influenced the acceptance of same sex marriages in many churches like The United Church of Christ,USA,The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America,The Church of Sweden,The United Methodist Church,The Church of England and The Church in Wales

Would Jesus k•ll people for mocking Him? Why are all atheists not dead? Did Jesus k*ll soldiers that crucified him naked? Did He eliminate those that called Him drunkard and glutton? Why would Jesus(God) tell Pastor Adeboye He would k•ll his mockers?
|
Pastor Adeboye’s threatening mockers like those who made him look like an Alhaji with death from God! Adeboye should remember that if God had k#lled him when he was womanising according to him while in the world, would we have a great man of God known worldwide today? If God had wiped out Saul of Tarsus who persecuted the church, would we have had Paul? As a fellow child of God, I pray for more constructive criticisms for the church. I would continue to pray for the repentance of mockers,sinners and jesters(Ezekiel 33:11). I would encourage Christians to only make Christ their role model. He is the only perfect one, not Adeboye, me or anyone! https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1B4S1fTezD/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Pastor Adeboye’s threatening mockers/Critics with death from God in 2025 and the congregation rejoicingly said Amen! Jesus was called ‘drunkard and glutton’. They accused Him of driving out demons by the power of Belzebub(Matt12:24). In all He never cursed His mockers or rejoiced in their destruction. On the cross, naked,in pains and humiliated, Jesus prayed for the forgiveness of His captors! He never worried whether they were ready to repent or not ! Some people may cite Elisha cursing 42 boys who mocked him to defend Adeboye but Elisha was not a Christian! He was under the law and not under the grace of Christ! Pastor Adeboye was so bothered about his AI generated caricature and insinuated that God was going to kill his unrepentant critics and ‘mockers’! The congregation who sadly idolize this fallible human said Amen to his prayer! President Tinubu, an unbeliever,has had many caricatures and AI generated pictures posted online yet he never said anything! He knows these are things that come naturally with being in the limelight! Critics are necessary evils to keep us in check even as men of God because your loyal congregation and pastors would never have the liver to tell u when u make mistakes. Remember when u mistakenly said non tithers wont make heaven; it took people like Damina and other critics to make you rescind your stance and publicly repent. Also remember when u openly supported Israel over Palestine in a tweet, it took critics like Reno Omokri to make you delete the tweet! Finally, Adeboye should remember that if God had k#lled him when he was womanising according to him while in the world, would we have a great man of God known worldwide today? If God had wiped out Saul of Tarsus who persecuted the church, would we have had Paul? As a fellow child of God, I pray for more constructive criticisms for the church.

When Adam and Eve were banished from the garden, what happened to the animals? Were they evicted as well? Were there some animals already staying outside the garden? Could it be there was another life and world outside the garden? Did their sins also affect the innocent animals? Is the Genesis creation story a parable?

Jesus was crucified completely naked with his genitals completely exposed! They removed everything to humiliate Him! Matthew 27:35 When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots. Mark 15:24 And they crucified him. Dividing up his clothes, they cast lots to see what each would get. Luke 23:34 Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up his clothes by casting lots. John 19:23 When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier; also his tunic. Christ suffered great humiliation by hanging nude on the cross. They took His garments and gambled for ownership. He went through it all, crucified naked, that we might be clothed with the righteousness of Christ, in order to be able to stand before God throughout eternity. After all the underserved pain and humiliation on the cross, the best you can do is to give ur life to Him and bring more people to the knowledge of Christ!

Hi Daejumong, did Jesus have sexual urges? Did He have normal erections as a man? Jesus experienced human emotions and needs, reflecting His full humanity. Even though He is the Son of God, He came in complete human form and was a perfectly normal guy. Some of the human side of Christ mentioned in the Bible include: Sorrow: Jesus wept at the death of His friend Lazarus, showing His deep sorrow and empathy (John 11:35). Anger: He expressed righteous anger when He saw the temple being misused as a marketplace (John 2:13-17). He experienced hunger (Matthew 4:2), thirst (John 19:28), fatigue (John 4:6), and the need for rest (Mark 6:31). Sexual drive often begins in puberty as testosterone and estrogen affect the body, although this can vary by individual. These hormonal changes can lead to thoughts about sex long before someone is ready to have it. Erections that happen first thing in the morning are completely normal and actually a sign of good health Since Jesus came as a healthy normal man, He would have had sexual urges and erections. He however did not allow His libido and erections to make Him sin or disturb His ministry and assignment!

Stop waiting for New Year declarations from your general overseers! Rather devote time to God personally and as a family to seek His word concerning you for 2025. All general declarations for the church are already in the Bible! Pastors just take scriptures and modify it and tell you this is what God said for 2025 and they are not wrong because it’s God’s words! Stop putting pressure on men of God to give u prophecies from God regarding the year! They are humans like you with their own challenges,weaknesses, illnesses and prayer points! When God is silent, they may be pressured to declare whatever they believe. Declare and recite Jer 29:11 with your family at the beginning of each year and remind God of it . Do it regularly and develop a personal relationship with Him .You don’t need a middle man! Jeremiah 29:11 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Take Medications as Prescribed: Use antibiotics and other medications only as directed by a healthcare professional. By adopting these healthy habits, you can improve your overall well-being and potentially extend your lifespan.

RCCG members, please stop worshipping Pastor Adeboye this year! He is human, makes mistakes and has his own problems and prayer points just like every one of us! Stop going to camp to pray in his former bedroom, old chairs he sat on or anything he used before! Stop rushing chairs he sat on whenever he ministers in your church! God is a jealous God and doesn’t share His glory with anyone(Exodus 20:5) Pastor Enoch Adeboye, is a man of God but not God. Even though God can perform miracles through him, we must avoid setting him up against God by idolizing him! Let’s not make God get angry against him!

Should a pastor return money given to the church by a corrupt politician? Some years back, a high ranking politician donated millions of dollars over a period of time to help the ministry of one of the biggest pastors in Nigeria. The pastor never queried him even though he knew it was beyond the scope of his salary! Few years down the line, the politician was convicted of massive corruption and had his properties confiscated and bank accounts frozen! The pastor does not believe he needs to return the money to the government! He believes it is God’s blessings and since he never knew it was acquired illegally, he has no need to give it back . The pastor in question is one of the biggest in Africa and worldwide! Do you think the pastor is right? Is this similar to spoils of war in the Bible? Is this a case of the sinner’s wealth being stored for the righteous? Proverbs 13:22: "A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children, but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous."

Can a Pastor/Christian curse people who steal from them or persecute them? Does God allow it? Is it scriptural? Moses: In Deuteronomy 27:15-26, Moses placed curses on those who disobeyed God’s laws. Elisha: In 2 Kings 2:23-24, Elisha cursed a group of boys who mocked him, resulting in two bears coming out of the forest and mauling 42 of them. Joshua: In Joshua 6:26, Joshua cursed anyone who would rebuild the city of Jericho, stating that they would do so at the expense of their firstborn and youngest sons. This curse was fulfilled in 1 Kings 16:34. Noah: In Genesis 9:24-25, Noah cursed Ham after he saw Noah’s unclothedness and told his brothers. Paul: Paul cursed Elymas (Bar-Jesus), a sorcerer who opposed him, causing him to be temporarily blinded (Acts 13:6-12) Even though the above great men of God cursed people, they should not be our role models. Jesus only is our perfect role model and even at the point of death prayed for the forgiveness of his captors! No matter the injustice or persecution from the world, a true Christian would never curse but rather pray for mercy and forgiveness!(Matt 5:44, Luke 6:27-28)

Victor Osimhen gave out 2000 motor tricycles to the needy in Lagos, Nigeria! What are the lessons to learn for Pastor Adeboye,Oyedepo and other general overseers in Nigeria and worldwide? Victor Osimhen is a superstar Nigerian footballer who earns averagely $10M a year! He grew from the trenches with a very poor background and by dint of hardwork rose to the top of his craft! He recently donated 2000 motor tricycles valued each at about $2200 totalling $4.4m(3.4 billion Naira). This is about six months’ salary of intense hardwork! He selflessly made these guys fishermen and not just given fishes. Motor tricycles are a major means of transport in Nigeria and when well managed as a business will make the owners live a comfortable life! Almost all churches donate small bags of rice, bottles of oil to needy members in church during Christmas periods. They eat for few days and return to their poverty while their General overseers fly jets, helicopters and live a life of luxury. Some of these guys generate billions/hundreds of millions of dollars yearly in their church empires. It is time general overseers emulate Victor Osimhen by empowering the needy and poorly paid pastors in their churches. Make them fishermen and not just giving them fishes! Nothing stops u from selling one of your jets to get motor tricycles for your pastors and needy members! There is no point flying the world with jets with the idea of winning souls when the souls on ground and their pastors are unhappy, hungry and suffering. God bless Victor and continue to elevate him all round! He has shown us what true sacrifice and love for humanity means - a virtue our Lord Jesus persistently preached. If our churches can be these sacrificial, investing and taking care of the people , Nigeria and by extension Africa would be a better place. https://punchng.com/osimhen-donates-tricycles-food-items-to-lagos-community/ https://von.gov.ng/osimhen-spreads-christmas-cheer-in-lagos-with-generous-donations/

‘Jesus Christ is NOT GOD, He is a Prophet and Messenger of God!’ - This was displayed on a banner in front of a Mosque in Lekki, Lagos, Nigeria recently and caused a lot of uproar among Christians! Looking critically at the Bible, is Jesus really God or the son of God? Does He have equal powers as God? Does He always share same ideas as God?(Rebuking his disciples who wanted to call down fire like Elijah,modifying the laws of Moses,asking why His Father forgot Him on the cross and many others). Why would Jesus have to pray to God all the time if He was God? Why would He teach us in the Lord’s Prayer to pray to His Heavenly Father? Why did the father send Him to die for the world? Jesus is currently seated at the right hand of God in heaven(Mark16:19,Heb 1:3). This invariably confirms He is not God but the son of God! He answers unto God and He is not completely equal to God. However, He might have played the role of a messenger of God and prophet in the world but that doesn’t remove from the fact He is the son of God(John 3:16).

Christian Churches who don’t believe Jesus is God! Jehovah’s Witnesses: They believe that God is one person, Jehovah, and that Jesus is His first creation, not part of a Trinity. Latter-day Saints (Mormons): They believe in a Godhead consisting of three separate beings: God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, but do not see them as one in essence. Oneness Pentecostals: They reject the traditional doctrine of the Trinity, believing instead that God is a single person who manifests Himself in different modes or aspects. Christian Science: Founded by Mary Baker Eddy, this group teaches that Jesus was a great teacher and the Son of God, but not God Himself. Unitarian Universalists: This group rejects the traditional Christian doctrine of the Trinity and does not believe that Jesus is God. They see Jesus as a great moral teacher and prophet. These Xtian groups interpret the Bible differently and have distinct theological perspectives/views that lead them to reject the traditional Trinity doctrine.
