Our Lord Jesus Christ rightly admonished us according to: Matthew 5:44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, Moreover, all believers are advised to owe no man nothing but love as seen in; Romans 13:8 (KJV) Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. |
BOLAPE, we are game. Love the updates as usual. I owe you a poem. |

If we sin, do we lose our salvation? If we are truly saved, will we ever sin? And if we do sin, what should we do to get rid of the guilt and the grief that hang heavy in our heart? The Bible tells us, “If we confess our sins, he [God] is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 1:9–10; 2:1–2). The word “advocate” means lawyer or one who pleads our cause or case. Jesus acts as our lawyer, pleading our case before the Father. When we are tempted, if we sin, we can claim the promise of First John 1:9: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” After verse 10, the Apostle John went on to say, “My little children . . .” (1 John 2:1). Man put the divisions between these chapters; John did not write in chapter and verse like this. Therefore, reading the four verses of our text in sequence, we can see that John was not writing to sinners; he was writing to Christians. First John 1:9 is often quoted to sinners, telling them to confess their sins. God didn’t tell them to. It would be impossible for a sinner to confess every wrong he had ever done, because his whole life is wrong! No, this verse was written to Christians. John writes, “My little children [because they were saved under his ministry and were his spiritual children], these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” This brings us to a very sensitive subject in the Church world. When you teach about God’s grace and forgiveness, someone always believes you are giving people a license to sin. Jesus Pleads Our Case I always say, however, that people do enough sinning without a license! It is quite obvious that God does not want us to sin: “. . . these things write I unto you, that ye sin not” (1 John 2:1). It is quite obvious that if we walked completely in the Word and in love, we wouldn’t sin. But it is also obvious that none of us has achieved this yet. Considering the other side of the issue, when people continually want to sin and choose to sin, I doubt that they ever were Christians to begin with. Why? When people live any way they want and do anything they want—cheat, lie, steal, and so forth—I doubt that a true Christian conversion ever took place. Some have said to me, “It doesn’t make any difference what I do. Christ is my advocate.” One man said, “I might steal something next week. I’m not planning to do it, but if I do, Jesus already has forgiven me for it.” I doubt seriously if a man like that is even saved. This scripture in First John never was intended to encourage people to sin. John is simply telling us about God’s provision for sin. The Spirit of God will help us overcome sin—not encourage us to practice it! After all, John said, “These things write I unto you, that you sin not.” In the first place, if a person is born again—if he has accepted Jesus Christ as Savior—he doesn’t want to do wrong. But often the devil tempts him through his flesh and overcomes him because he is not strong spiritually. Paul said, “Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted” (Gal. 6:1). If it were just a fault Paul was talking about, we all would need restoring, and there wouldn’t be any spiritual people left to do the restoring. We all have faults. The Greek actually says, “If any man among you be overtaken in an offense, or sin, you which are spiritual, restore such a one in the spirit of meekness.” God wants His people to be restored to full fellowship with Him. If they want to be restored, it is our obligation to restore them in a spirit of meekness, not arrogance. Why? “. . . considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted” (Gal. 6:1). It is a different matter, however, when people do not want to be restored. When it comes to healing, James 5:14–15 says, “Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.” We see here the possibility of sin in conjunction with sickness, and of forgiveness in connection with healing. By way of illustration, if a man speaks sharply to his wife, he is not eternally lost because of it. He is, however, out of fellowship with her! He needs to get back in fellowship with her by apologizing and asking her forgiveness. Well, First John 2:1 says, “. . . if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” If we sin, we lose our sense of righteousness and cannot enter God’s presence. Righteousness means right-standing with God. Righteousness means the ability to stand in the presence of God without any inferiority complex, without a consciousness of sin. If you have sinned or failed, you cannot stand in the presence of God without a consciousness of sin. But there is One Who can go in on your behalf—Jesus Christ, the Righteous. He is the propitiation—the substitute—for our sins; and not for our sins only, but for the sins of the whole world (1 John 2:1–2). As our advocate, Jesus restores to us our lost sense of righteousness, for He said, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins . . .” (1 John 1:9). But He does more than just forgive us of our sins; He cleanses us from all unrighteousness. He cleanses us from that sin-consciousness or spiritual inferiority complex that would keep us from going into God’s presence. There are those who live under a cloud of fear. They say things such as, “I am so afraid of displeasing the Lord. If Jesus comes, I might not make it. I don’t know if I am ready or not.” And they are robbed of their joy in Christ. They are afraid that God is mad at them and will not have anything to do with them. We do not have to live under such a cloud of fear and gloominess. We can know that if we have failed—if we are Christians—our hearts will be grieved about it. If we can keep sinning and failing, however, and are not grieved about it, we had better check up on our conversion experience. If we have been born again and have the life and nature of God in us, we don’t want to do wrong. Many times new Christians miss God’s will and sin in ways they are not even aware of, but they are walking in the light they have. The Apostle John said, “If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin” (1 John 1:7). As I look back now, after nearly 70 years of being a Christian, I can see that I missed God many times when I didn’t even know it. At the time, I walked in what light I had, and the blood of Jesus Christ cleansed me from things I didn’t know about. I can remember the first time I became conscious of having done wrong after I became a Christian. It nearly broke my heart. If a believer is tempted and Satan gains mastery over him in something, when the believer cries out for mercy, he can hear Christ whisper, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). And then we also can hear Him say in these marvelous words from Hebrews 4:16, “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace.” Why? “. . . That we may obtain mercy . . . .” It is mercy that we need when we have sinned. As long as we are doing right, we can get by on justice. In Hebrews 4:14 we read, “Seeing then that we have a great high priest . . . .” We have a High Priest Who also stands in this office of Advocate, that we may “. . . come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (v. 16). Grace is unmerited favor. When you fail is the time you need grace; that’s when you need mercy. Once while driving through a small town, a minister friend of mine accidentally drove through a stoplight. Before he knew it, there was a flashing red light behind him and the shrill sound of a siren. A policeman pulled him over and gave him a ticket for running a red light and for going 45 in a 30-mph zone. When the minister appeared in court, his case was stated and the judge asked if he had anything to say. He answered, “Yes, I do.” He said that he had been on his way to preach and explained that he ministered in small country churches. Then he said, “Judge, I don’t have a dime. I’ll just have to go to jail or work it out on the county farm. I’m not going to ask you for justice. I would be in trouble if I got justice, because I’m guilty. So I am asking instead for mercy.” He continued, “I’m like the woman in the Bible who was taken in the act of adultery. Her accusers brought her to Jesus, and He said, ‘. . . He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her’ [John 8:7]. Jesus stooped down to write something in the sand, and when He looked up, everyone was gone. “‘When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more” (John 8:10–11). The preacher added, “I’m asking for mercy, and I’ll go and sin no more.” The judge asked, “Is that story in the Bible?” “Yes,” the preacher answered. The judge said, “I wish you would show it to me.” The preacher had his New Testament with him, so he turned to that passage and showed it to the judge. The judge said, “I teach a Sunday school class in a local church, but I didn’t know that was in there. I’m going to teach on that. Case dismissed!” The judge showed mercy. If the preacher hadn’t been speeding and hadn’t run that light, he could have gotten by on justice; he wouldn’t have needed mercy. But he broke the law and, therefore, needed mercy. Mercy and grace are always available to us if we break God’s law. All we need to do is call on Christ our Advocate! https://www.hopefaithprayer.com/jesus-advocate-hagin/ |
Only north has - Under age voting - Multiple voters card - over population in an empty land mass Chai, there's no way to beat them at all. |
Lol The assurance he had for his girlfriend has disappeared oooooo. No more Porsche, chai. |
He made a wise decision. A Rematch would have landed him in the hospital with some permanent body damage for the rest of his life which 22million pounds won't erase. |
I think he is dead |
Lisaflex:Hahahahahahahahahahahaha I laughed so hard till I started having tears from my eyes. You and I know that that kind of love is called petty love. |
The poor guy who was doing all the commanding doesn't even know a thing about what he is talking about. He doesn't have any right to threaten the boss with death if he refused to sign the document. The boss has his own reasons for not signing it. A better way was to have gone to God in prayers and asked the Lord to touch his boss's heart so as to have favor in him whenever he stands with the document before the boss. We don't need to command or struggle with or combat human beings, for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal ( not of the flesh) at all. Deal with the devil and his demons that maybe at work in that office that is causing hatred or disaffection or disunity according to knowledge. Ephesians 6:12 King James Version (KJV) 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. |
Because the love of God has been shared in our hearts, we owe no man or woman nothing except to love him or her. For God didn't give us the spirit of fear, but of power, LOVE, and of a sound mind. |
Maybe there are a lot of things not stated in the matter. Anyways, let's continue to pray for our church leaders so that they will remain steadfast in the faith and to be faithful to their calling unto the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
All these carnal paedophiles. May God deliver you from this evil trend. |
A young South African Man has gone viral on the internet for a very funny reason. In school or even when two bachelors share a room, it is part of the guy-code (Don’t ask me where it is written) for a roommate to vacate the room or indeed the premises when his roommate brings home a girl. However, this young south African man refused to leave the room, and he even took photos of the two lovers in bed (LOL). Sharing the photo on his Facebook, he wrote; My room mate just came back with his girlfriend. They have been here staring at me for 4 hrs. They think I will go outside to give them privacy. I cannot support evil. No way! Let me even start selecting my movies. http://www.informationng.com/2018/05/i-cant-support-evil-man-refuses-to-give-his-roommate-girlfriend-privacy-photo.html

Operatives of the Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Response Team have arrested one of the four robbery suspects declared wanted for attacks on banks in Offa, Kwara State. The suspect, Michael Adikwu, an ex-policeman, was said to have been dismissed in 2012 by the Kwara State Police Command for allegedly aiding the escape of some robbery suspects. PUNCH Metro learnt that Adikwu, until his dismissal, was attached to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the state command. Adikwu was said to have been arraigned in court and remanded in a prison, where he spent three years before he found his way out and formed a robbery gang with others. He was reportedly arrested on Tuesday in a town in Kwara State by the DCP Abba Kyari-led IRT operatives, who acted on a tip-off from members of the public who saw Adikwu’s picture among those declared wanted. A robbery gang had stormed some banks in Offa on April 5 and killed scores of people, including nine policemen. They reportedly carted away millions of naira during the operation which lasted for about an hour. Although the state Commissioner of Police, Ado Lawan, put the number of fatalities at 17, the Operations Commander, Vigilance Group of Nigeria, Offa, Kwara State chapter, Wasiu Adepoju, said his men counted 50 corpses. Leaked Closed Circuit Television footage of the incident revealed when the robbers blew up a security post of one of the banks as they intermittently brought out bags suspected to be containing money out of the premises. While about 20 suspects were said to have been arrested, the Kwara State Government placed a bounty of N5m on the other fleeing robbers. In a statement on Friday, the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Jimoh Moshood, released the pictures of four members of the gang captured in the CCTV footage and declared them wanted. Moshood stated that the assailants were being monitored by the International Police and would soon be apprehended. A senior police officer disclosed to PUNCH Metro on Wednesday that one of the wanted robbers was tracked down on Tuesday. The source said the arrested suspect, Odikwu, was a police corporal and was dismissed from the Force in 2012 after his alleged involvement in the escape of some robbery suspects. The source said, “He (Adikwu) was a SARS operative at the Kwara State Police Command. He used to fraternise with robbers. There was a robbery that happened in Kwara State about six years ago. The robbers killed somebody and escaped. The police were able to arrest those robbers. “He collected money from those robbery suspects and released them. Later, the robbers were rearrested and they confessed that he aided their escape. He was arrested, tried in an orderly room trial and dismissed. “He was charged to court together with the robbery suspects and was in prison for three years. He and some of the robbers were able to manoeuvre their way out of the prison and formed a robbery gang.” Another source said a team of detectives got a lead that Adikwu was staying in a hideout in the state and swooped on him. “The lead was given to the police by an informant. His hideout was cordoned off and he was arrested. He was apprehended by the IRT operatives in a community in Kwara State,” the source added. The Police Public Relations Officer, Kwara State Command, DSP Ajayi Okasanmi, said arrests had been made, but he had yet to receive information on Adikwu’s arrest. He said, “What I know is that the IRT team and the command are investigating the matter and have been making arrests. The Force PRO will come out with other information at the right time.” The FPRO, Moshood, could not be reached for comment as calls to his line rang out. He had also yet to reply to a text message sent to his telephone as of press time. http://www.punchng.com/police-arrest-dismissed-cop-declared-wanted-for-offa-robbery/

- Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is one of Nigeria's biggest indigenous investors - Atiku's investments are scattered all over the country and doing well - The former vice president is now making strong inroads into the health services sector Africa Health Services is set to establish a 100-bed hospital in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. The company is owned by Nigeria's former vice president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. Adamawa-born Atiku is one of Nigeria's biggest indigenous investors, with investments scattered all over the country and doing well. The Waziri of Adamawa is noted for being a shrewd business man after he retired from the Nigeria Customs Service in April 1989. “It was my pleasure meeting with the delegation of the management of Saudi-German Hospital led by Dr. Rajeev Kaushal over joint partnership with our company, Africa Health Services for the establishment of a 100-bed hospital in Abuja,” the 71-year old politician wrote on his Twitter page. Atiku made the announcement a day after he donated N10million for the treatment of bomb blast victims in his home state of Adamawa. The former vice president is famed for his generosity, reason why he is political loyalists have remained with him through thick and thin. He is expected to contest for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)'s presidential primary ticket ahead of the 2019 elections. Meanwhile, there are indications that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is clearing the coast for President Muhammadu Buhari to emerge as its sole candidate ahead of its primary election later this year. Buhari, who informed the APC National Executive Council recently about his interest to seek reelection in the coming presidential election has been endorsed by the 24 governors of the party. The governors are said to have firm grip and control of the delegates that would vote during the presidential primary. This is an advantage ahead of the exercise for the incumbent against other contestants. https://www.naija.ng/1168532-atikus-health-services-company-establish-100-bed-hospital-abuja.html

Who are the "WE" he mentioned in his reply? |
There is obviously a psychiatric problem in that fellow. He needs help. |
Sammie thing Buhari promised us, yet we are still praying for the change that was promised to happen. If we can't restructure this country, no party or president can cause true change. |
Even if they end up marrying, how how we sure these young celebrities can keep and save the union from divorce. |
Maybe he has a CHIOMA he wants to please too |
Sex is sex, not a personality. Hope this epistle is not directed to your ex? |
