The most important thing is the information. whether cut or join, the message is clear and educative.

Then who's blending who?

stupid question cos he wants advise? Can we take stock of our own lives. What assets can we pu to generous use today?

If na me you dey ask. I be a Catholic - staunch one

@ dumi,
na who you dey ask? Again which God or god? I no understand

Then, we don't want kids here

rowlandwhy:
What do u mean by mass?
We talking about church services here and not mass and english OK?
there are much differences between mass and church services

For the fact that you don't understand what I meant by "Mass" does not mean that a word like "Mass" does not exist. The potestants uses services while Catholics uses the word "Mass". That is why catholics are different from the protestants. Mass is a Sacrifice because we (catholics) believe in the sacrifce of Christ in unbloody manner. But the protestants call it service because they only gather pray, clap hands and dance. So, don't bring English in something you don't understand. Better ask for explanation. Again, in Mass Christ real body and blood are received and not symbol as protestants believe

Hum, i'm speechless. Too much fuss from?

The Omosexy of a girl does want to screen many applicants that have applied. Maybe it's giving her much problem to screen. Hope, I will pass the screening exercise, then the interview will begin. I have attached my past experience and forwarded it to her.

@sandy

won't you tell us how much a big stall cost in Abuja and how many years' rent they collect. Remember there is a high risk paying for a shop in Abuja because demolition exercise.

Again, let me explain to you Imageries and Image. Imageries concern the formation of familiar symbols, pictures, events, ideas and situations in the mind by the use of mere words, and this gives and understanding of the issue at hand. It helps adults to understand but children may not understand. Now, you can address God (Christ) in Imageries like Smiley and Metaphor e.g The Holy Spirit descended upon them like a dove (Smiley). Is the Holy Spirit a bird? You see, you condemn images and goes ahead to liken the Holy Spirit as a bird. Remember, God said do not liken me with anything in heaven or under heaven. The point I’m trying to make is that God who searches the heart knows who you are worshiping. So, addressing the Holy Spirit like a dove is to tell the manner in which the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles. It gives more understanding. That is visualizing the gentility in which the dove came. As gentle as a dove. Again, this is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world (Metaphor)- Is Jesus Christ an animal? No, but we are trying to create understanding for the purpose which Jesus Christ came to this world. We know a lamb is used for sacrificial purpose in Israel. So, we are trying to point out that Jesus would sacrifice his life to redeem the world. Jesus Christ the Lion of Judah (metaphor). Having explained Imageries, I can go to Images. From Imageries, Images appear. So, instead of the use of words alone to paint situations and arouse imagination, drawings and figures can be used to facilitate or increase understanding. These pictures, drawings and portraits etc are known as images. In this case children will understand better. Use of images for worship are not forbidden just as the use of images. The Israelites used the ark to worship God and He did not condemn it. We know that God manifested His Spirit and powers in the Ark. This Ark was an Image of a wood. Remember, it is the same God who said you should not make anything under heaven or beneath in place of my Holy Name. Each time the Israelites went to war with the Ark, so far they were worshiping God in truth and spirit, they won, but anything they departed from God, and would go to war with the Ark, they were defeated. God would not manifest his Spirit and Power in the Ark. Remember this Ark when it was captured by the Philippines, they took it to their cities, and we were told that their gods were bowing for the Ark of God. It was the same Ark of God that made God to kill Uzzah when it was returning, because the Ark of God wanted to fall and Uzzah rushed to hold it and God killed him for not showing respect to the Ark. Uzzah and Ahio were guiding it as it was returning. Then David became afraid and directed the Ark to Obed Edom’s house. Now, God blessed Obed Edom’s house and David now went to bring it back home. This very Ark that brought blessing to the household of Obed Edom was a Holy Image (something carved by a human being). Again Genesis 9 vs 12 – 17 states “This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you … I have set MY BOW in the clouds …. When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, I will remember my covenant, and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.” So, this bow mentioned is the image of the rainbow in the cloud. Again, another general destruction was avoided in the Israelites’ Camp when they were bitten by a deadly snake through the use of an image. Numbers 21vs8-9 states that God instructed Moses to make a poisonous serpent and set it on a pole; and everyone who is bitten shall look at it and live. Then, Moses made a serpent of bronze and put it on a pole, and whenever a serpent bit someone that person would look at the serpent of bronze and live. That bronze serpent was an image and it was not the serpent that saved them rather the power of God manifesting in it saved them. There are many instances in the bible that shows God approves Holy Images. The only thing you have to bear in mind is that, never use it as idolatry. When you use Images as idolatry it becomes worshipping gods, then you risk hell fire. Know your heart and who you worship, that is the most important. Just to caught it short.

@redsun
You said that I'm fooling people, but you heard when babeearly said we should bring facts and he said that Catholic Priest grants absolution - that it is blasphemy to forgive sins, then I told him the portion of the bible where Christ instituted the sacrament of Penance (John 20vs 21-23), there Christ breathed on his Apostles and said Receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, any sins you forgive are forgiven and any you retain, they are retained. So he pointed so many things out. Again, he was making reference that Catholics uses Image, but all of you that condemns the use of Images to worship God still go ahead hanging Jesus Christ pictures in your houses. One day, I visited one of the Protestant members who always condemn Images. In his house I saw Jesus Christ pictures hanging, and I asked him whose picture was that? He said Jesus Christ. Then I asked him if picture is not an Image? He could not answer me. You people are battling with ignorance. There is a difference between using Images as Idols and using it to worship God. Listen, God is not against the use of Images, He is only against it when you use it as Idolatry just like Aaron used it as Idolatry in his days.

kateflow, your own is to ask, "una still dey apply" anything to wrong 2 wire many applications. I hope the senator's daughter will conduct an interview to know who will pass, hence her selection.

How many people find yesterday's mass boring? That is, for those that attended.

The students just graduated second week of July, 2007. Just recently.

@redsun
Are you not getting me wrong? This girl Kilma said she can plot stories very well, and I'm not too good in plotting, not that I cannot plot, but I know can create good stories. So, she said I can hook or mail her. Luckily, I saw her online and tried to chat with her base on the plotting issue. Remember there is nothing wrong chatting with the opposite sex, I chat with them simple. Take note, I'm not a priest, though I would have been a Priest but later changed my decision (personal decision). If I had gone ahead, I have been ordained since 2002. Now, trying to let you know the truth does not mean I cannot chat with any girl. You gave your own opinion on the issue, then you must be a Pastor. Redsun, pls get me right.

@kilma
I saw u online and tried to chat with u, but you wouldn’t respond. Why?

If you want to curse Oprah to avenge for anything, no problem. But listen, NEVER NEVER try to curse any woman for her childless state of affairs. Most of us have not yet married to know what our wives will be. But I pray that our wives may be fruitful. If you believe in this prayer, then, don’t go to the issue of bareness.

Na so this thread long dey go far so

I must tell you confidently that Babeearly is a Jehovah Witness member. This the type of false article they always write. Stating deceit facts that never existed.

The funny things is that, as you are saying Oprah did not say such a thing, Most Nigerians doesn't want to hear that one. To them, why must she use Nigeria as example in her Scam Awareness Lecture. That is why insults keeps on coming. They are not ready to check the link, even if they check, that is not their business. What they know is that Oprah mentioned Nigeria. Funny enough.

Come back to the original church that has its root to Christ. Catholic remain the true church. We know Satan always uses people to attack what is right before God. These attacks against Catholic Church is the work of Satan, trying to turn the true Church of Christ away from its true foundation. Satan will not succeed, never will

If the 666 is the number of men as you foolishly allowed yourself to believe such false teaching from your greed pastors whom the bible foretold that many false Prophets will rise and claim to know the bible and deceive many. Now, let me ask you, do you know that the names of the Catholic Popes as listed, started from Saint Peter as number 1 Pope, whom Christ gave the power to be the head of His church on earth? Do you want to tell me now that Saint Peter and his successors were the first beasts of this number 666? Do you know that after Saint Peter as the head of Christian faith, another Pope that took over from him had his root in the Catholic Church and his name also stated in the list of the Catholic Popes? Do you know that God (Christ) supports hierarchy and orderliness, and so there must be orderliness and hierarchy in His Church for it be one as Christ prayed for His Church to be one? Are you now saying that the Catholic Church which is the only Church on earth to day that is one and has only one visible head is contrary to Christ’s prayer? Do you know that each day (either Sunday or ordinary days) what is happening in any Catholic Parish in Rome or Nigeria is the same thing happening throughout Catholic Parishes in the world. Is this not the prayer of Christ for oneness of His Church taking place? Don’t let those greedy Pastors whom bible has warned you to beware of deceive you people.

I can sense the likes of Fellas, doomed forever

You guys should not worry about Oprah, we are putting things in order to reply her directly to her web sites. All these responses will get to her. Is no play. I personally have made her case known to some responsible Nigerians.

From Iraq, Pakistan, Iran, Syria, Palestine and to the rest of Arab countries who are known for terrorisms, yet nobody have said all these countries are terrorists. I tell you, if Oprah had directed the corruption remark to one of these countries, Alqada, Hamas, Fatah Group, Sunis, Shitte, Hezbollah and the rest would have te te handed US their Attack Notifications. I know by now, Oprah would have denied more than 10 times that she did not make such statement and even render apology for those that think she might have made the statement. But here in Nigeria, as usual, we hala, shake body, jump up, jump down, smile and life goes on. Let me hear word. In as much as the statement is a bad remark for Nigeria, yet, a Nigerian who knows that she made such statement can be paid by Oprah, and the person will swear that Oprah never even mention Nigeria in her statement, let alone the word ‘corruption.’ When this happen, Oprah might feel justified.

Abi make I no apply for Senator's daughter again? I dey more than interested
