Celebrities › Re: SolidStar Is Seriously Sick - Singer's Brother Cries Out As He Shares Sad Video by elonize(m): 9:29am On Aug 21, 2023
Lanruze:
Solid Star recently opened up on his addiction to substances on his verified page and requested that he needs prayers proir to his public ordeal.

Unfortunately, he said he is addicted to "Ice", the street name for Metamerphine. One of the most dangerous substances to be addicted to.

If you want to understand the extent of damage this drug does to stars especially, google the rise and fall of Elvis Presley.

He will be fine , and also advisable he relocates to a new location where he wouldn't be judged after full rehab.
Elvis was an occult person, after e made his convenant with d devil...DAT was d beginning of his addiction...
D devil's gift was never eternal life n enjoyment

Only lost some friends to alcohol ( drunk driving and alcohol related sickness) but the closest to me back then was even warned by his doctor not to indulge but my guy no listen. Things got worse when I left Abuja cos no one cared about him anymore as I was the only one always checking up on him ensuring he was following the doctor's orders. Heard he died of liver issues. I couldn't sleep right for almost a year. He would always be in my dreams. Rip Dan, I hope we see again 😞

Christianity didn’t come from catholic.
When we understand the Bible we will see clearly that Christianity is a religion that had its start from the very early beginning.
This religion is based on the Bible and the Bible made us know that humans had direct relationship with God in the beginning. They had laws guiding them and they were happy. There was the prospect of this happiness continuing forever.
But then human defaulted and the direct relationship with God ended. They started suffering the opposite of things they should enjoy.
God almost immediately developed a plan on how to restore this relationship and the happy state of humans.
Then there came a time that maybe because of the unfavorable worsening conditions, people started calling on the name of God. We can imagine they started praying, treating their neighbors well and sacrificing all sort of things from their properties of livestock and plants just in an attempt to curry Gods favor. “There was also born to Seth a son, and he named him Eʹnosh. At that time people began calling on the name of Yahweh.” Genesis 4:26. This is a stage of religion... a continuation of human attempt at relationship with God.
In the aforementioned period, it was the conscience of people (which hasn’t become as bad as it is now) that was regulating all they were doing. Adam too that related directly with God was alive most of this time to most likely tell stories of the reality and power of God. Enoch too preached around this time.
Then God revealed himself to Abraham after the flood. He went on with the practice of making sacrifices to appease God. He even gave a tithe to a priest-king at Gods instruction. Still in this time, people were generally guided by their conscience.
The Bible based religion took a formal form when God after some thousands of years gave Moses some laws, rituals and codes to guide a set of people. They started practicing what we know today as Judaism (Judaism as a term and religion today though is very different from the religion and code of conduct God revealed to Moses).
This new stage of relationship with God was part of a phase of human relationship with God, it will soon metamorphosis and develop into another phase.
The Religion of Moses continued too for some thousands of years. This religion we have come to know was basically in many aspect a kind of blueprint or raw data to a religion that will be Christianity. Example, aspects like sacrificing of lamps in the religion of Moses was a pointer to the future when Jesus will be sacrificed.
Moses religion was an “ethnoreligion“ as it was a religion that was basically known to be practiced by a particular tribe which is Israelites. To practice this kind of religion one will in some ways nationalize and become Israelite.
Jesus like Moses then came and gave many rules and guidelines to ways we can better relate with God. He based this rules on the prior revealed rules of Moses. He however pointed that many of the practices in the time of Moses were like a sample and pointer to what he was teaching. Hence many of Jesus guidelines though precipitated on Moses laws were a more developed version of it. Example, Jesus now showed that it’s not just a limited set of people that can worship God in a delineated geographically environment but that it’s all people from everywhere in the world that can relate with God by the guidelines Jesus revealed. Hence, Christianity which is a further developed form of Moses religion went beyond ethnicity and became a global religion. It’s not an “ethnoreligion”.
This phase of relationship with God was later termed Christianity after Jesus CHRIST. (Like the former phase was called Moses religion). We are presently in that phase of relationship.
Catholicism too didn’t start like a formal name. It’s was another way some Christians started recognizing themselves. It meant universal religion. And it’s because Christians about a 100years after Jesus were in many places of the world.
Later this catholic as a term became not just another way some Christians were identifying themselves but also a way they started using to differentiate themselves from other Christians. This is because some sad conditions started springing up shortly after Jesus death. Christians started dividing into sects. Some followed more Paul, others thought themselves as Apollo’s followers, while some think Peter was the sole authority. Later there were those that called themselves ‘the church’, some universal (catholic) church and some Arian’s.
Out of these groups, it was catholic that gained political influence and then recognition. Then many emperors converted to catholic version of Christianity. In the year 380 or there about, Emperor Theodosios 1 proclaimed catholic version of Christianity the state religion. All this while even till today, other sects were available in different forms and with varying doctrines.

I hope with my long history and explanation I have given you a better knowledge to understand and even explain to somebody like that your friend in the future.
I must point out to you though, that Catholics from almost when it became a state religion have deviated from the teachings of the Bible just like Judaism we know today do not really conform to the religion of Moses.

I have been to a church in Allen like that and I experienced same. They don't cover their heads or dress decently. They speak in tongues and when one person speaks someone will translate it to the members.

Their service doesn't end on Sunday early but till late at night around 10pm. They just take a 2 hours break after morning service between 3pm-5pm before they start the evening service. Even you will see cross dressers in the church
wait,for dis Nigeria?

I advice you go back to the Bible and get to know what we came here to do and our final destiny really.
You have referred to our dressing standard and even sexual orientation as though it is not something Bible defines and regulate. You are either ignorant or lying as I will point to you that God actually through the Bible regulates our dressing by two/three standards;
1. It was in the beginning in Eden that God actually fist start to define and regulate dressing standards. The standard God set there was that clothings must cover. God replaced the clothes our first parent made with leaves with that made of animal skins.
2: God enjoins us to dress in a way that we won’t be mistaken to other sex or people that the world sees as belong to some culture with ungodly vices.
3: this encapsulate everything, and it is that our conduct and clothing must glorify God “FOR THERE ARE CLOUD OF WITNESSES AROUND US.”

You remember I said at the very beginning that I do not know your religion but then you boasted that the Bible regulates you. But this hasn’t been evident in your argument. I have made in all my response references to Bible events and even quoted Bible, and you haven’t been able to fault any of this. But you on the other hand, have hardly made reference to anything from the Bible. One can conclude that you are not really being regulated by the Bible but by human (limited and deficient) wisdom and traditions.
You have even gone 180 degrees by going against your advice not to judge by directly judging me and falsely saying that ‘me and people like me’ define dressing standards and condemn people.
Dressing like gay issue has been refined and regulated by the Bible. And I have all the while shown you this

At least you seem to have some self restraint. But do you understand the Gospel.

And Christianity is not in competition with any religion, even if almost all the world left it, it does not change the good news.

It does not make it any lesser, neither does it diminish the Hope of the Gospel.

People leave religion all the time, because they get tired of being oppressed or they are shocked at certain things, or they have certain convictions. However each person should have the opportunity to choose what they believe.

Your religion, does not even give people the chance to leave it, without the threat of a death sentence. There are cases of such in Iran, Sudan and even Nigeria. Although i think in southern Nigeria, they could leave without been killed or threatened or ostracized.

In Iran people are leaving their religion many are atheist and many are becoming Christians, because the Iranians were very intelligent people and they can reason, so when they recognized the leadership was becoming extreme, they got tired.
d leader was oppressing dem using religion

Modernization is man's creation. It does not change God who is the ancient of days. He lives outside of time and he has told us to be modest in all our doings. Most of those churches where they do such things do not worship the true God. They just come to church and make noise with their praise and worship then go home feeling absolutely empty.

Your thoughts,
Now mine: even if 100% of churches are used for factories. Your government will pull it down!
Ask yourself how many government owned institutions or factories still functions?

The one individuals try to build they frustrate them with heavy tax levy.
I live in a state where the government told a construction 🚧 company that wanted to base in Nigeria. 60/40. That is, government will own 40% and they 60% outrageous.
Before innoson motors got a name in Nigeria, do you know the battleshuh


Your country doesn't like good things, the goal is to keep everyone pooor. So even if they change churches to factories, government will pull it down. Na me dey tell you. simple, so let's pray our way out instead.

You can serve God just by obeying his commands. Never by going to church.

Going to church is good because, as a true born again, you feel the joy of being in the midst of many voices singing praises and lifting the name of God higher. And also to hear the word of God, even though the preacher might be a sinner.

My post wasn't alluding that going to church is bad. It clearly advices that, instead of going to church to show off your fashion, figures, and tempt men, it is better to sit at home..because you are wasting your time.
its good made a point...our discussion is a very good ,open minded type.if it were to b some..insults wud have ensued...
