Great. Nice one

NaijaChild:
why are you shaking your head??

Because there is a very big difference, I mean very wide gap between a church-goer and a christian

bolaino:
lol, who told you your pastor doesn't have the intention of owning a jet in the near future.

If he wanted to own a jet, he would have done that very long time ago, no be today. He has being in the ministry long before Pastor Adeboye and David Oyedepo started

Whether catholics or different denominations o, it is simple, by their fruits, we shall know them:

Men can never, I mean never gather grapes of thorns nor fig of thistle, never!!!

I do. It won't be easy at first but once you have the mind of Christ, He will make it easy, I mean, very easy. When offence happens, don't look at the person that offended you, rather, look up to GOD and tell GOD to forgive the person, that the person know not what he is doing, because if he/she does, he won't offend you. Take you mind away from the offence and let the love of christ consume you to love the person. Not for your sake, not to your glory, but for the sake of Christ, forgive the person no matter the weight of the offence, to the glory of JESUS, forgive and forget. Remove it from your mind. See the person as a brethren and neighbour. For the kingdom of GOD, and for the Holy commandment, you should forgive so GOD will in turn forgive your sins. Meditate on the word GOD, e.g the parable of the king and his servants Matthew 18:23 etc

In summary, just dwell on the word of GOD, it is life. Dwell on it, meditate on it, do it, focus on GOD and His righteousness, then forgiveness will be part of you as ye becometh saint

bolaino:
can you tell me where jesus told his followers to pay tithe in other for God to bless them?

Sometimes I wonder if you guys are christians or church-goers or non-believers that are quick to fault spiritual things. I just tire for una. Where I want start to dey explain now? If you are a christian and not a church-goer, ye should know these things

nora544:
tithing like it is preached in nigeria and most of them are pentecost pastors is a heresy gospel.

Why nigerian pastors are rich and I mean realy rich, I was searching if any Pastor or priest in Europa has a private jet and i can tell you no one.

Why Adeboye preach when you didnot give your first fruit that god will curse you sorry that is heresy.

Fake miracles, all that they can fill their pockets with money.

The followers still stay poor and the pastors get richer with every day.

Just read that TB joshua give out 5000 Rand to the victims from his collaps building, and also his water I must say when this happen to my family than i would tell them that they should go and i will show it to the public that all know what he is trying to do.

I quite agree with you that 95% of church and pastor in Nigeria have compromised and are after wealth and many other things. But the truth still remain that christian ought to pay tithe. Most pastors capitalize on this to make themselves rich doesn't mean true believers shouldn't pay tithe anymore in the real christian church they attend. The pastor of my church don't own a private jet and won't.

There is about only 5% of christians and church in Nigeria that is true. And is mandated of them to pay tithe, irrespective of how their counterpart that have compromised are trying to mock GOD. Let the inhabitats of the earth rejoice and be glad because the LORD liveth and reigneth. Even before the foundations of the world, GOD is never mocked and never will

GOD bless you ma

Nice one. That is the weightier matter of the law: fear GOD and keep His commandments, seek His kingdom before every other thing else

~shakes my head~

Wow!! Many are rooted to the belief that tithing is fraudulent. Hmmm, alright na, is it not this world we live in? We go see na

"He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still." (Revelation 22:11)

Wow!

Nice one

Yes. Restitution is needed. You have to make things right

oghalesluv: i day ph nw o

Wow..thank GOD. welcome. Make I whatsapp you

Living Christ-like, keeping His commandments

oghalesluv: thanks dear bro. God bless you

GOD bless you too brother. We thank GOD

oghalesluv: why are they not priority to you? And why don't you have business with virgin girls?

Bro, leave her o. Leave them. That is what the world has turned into. Girls don't want to marry virgin boys as boys don't want to marry virgin girls. Is it not this world we live? Where people swim in sin and iniquity and see nothing wrong. Leave the world o. Leave them o, fornication and adultery is now a must amongst this generation

Yeah

finofaya: God bless you too bro.

See, the devil's "perpetratous act" is leading people to hell, abi? If he leads people to hell and he succeeds in keeping them there, can you say that he has discontinued his perpetratous act? I would say he hasn't, and in that case then evil would not be ended.

You don't get it. When the world ends, he won't have a chance to perpetrate his evil acts again. he won't have the chance to lead more souls to hell. he will be cast to lake of fire with other soul he successfully deceived and his agents. So evil will seize to exist when the world comes to an end

finofaya: What is now the point of an 'end time'?

End time means end of evil. It means the devil will no longer continue it's perpetratous act. Evil will stop to spread. The wicked ones will be rewarded their wickedness, the good ones will be rewarded their righteousness. The earth will be renewed, the saints will come to inherit the new heaven and new earth. There will be new Jerusalem. The presence of GOD will continually be with mankind. There would be no more sorry or cry or pain etc. So much joy and happiness amongst the saints. The promises of GOD will come to pass. His word will be fulfilled. Then the world will be exactly as the LORD God Almighty made it in the first place and want it to be. There is more to it Finofaya. There is more to it than our expections and all we imagine. Just strive to be there. Strive to be among the saints of GOD. GOD bless you

Even if the world doesn't end soon, our generation will die and face judgement. Very few will be saved to heaven while many will go to hell. It is better the world end in our generation. Sin has become rampant, the fear of GOD is in the hearts of very few.

Prepare for JESUS coming

If you'll be in your house alone, just rinse your mouth and fast. But if you will go out or interact with other people, taiwoawoniyi's said it all

The devil has infiltrated the church and turned their heart from heavenly things to worldly things. I thank GOD for leading me to a true holiness church.

"If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable." (1 Corinthians 15:19)

I pity church-goers. I really pity them.

I work in a corporate organization where I see rich people of different calibers and countries, of a truth I tell you, the closer one is to wealth, the farther he goes away from the kingdom of GOD. The fulfilment of Matthew 19:24 is very much in place.

What shall it profit a man.....

frank317: Its jst plain crazy... U ask the 'air' for forgiveness, u tell ur self u have been forgiven. You go and commit the same offense again, you repeat the process all over again.
Sometimes I think christian are plain mAd

It seems we're mad but on the last day, you will know where our 'madness' will lead us to

chibwike: thanks bro. God bless you

All thanks be unto God LORD of hosts. God bless you too

If we wrong Him, we have sinned against. He will definetly forgive us if we ask for His mercy and genuinely repent:

"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)

"He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy." (Proverbs 28:13)

Mind you, you must really be sorry for the wrong you did and repent with a clean heart. Trust GOD, we cant deceive Him. He knows the heart

Epathra: To start with, I wasn't trained to believe Christianity was in competition with other religion. Next, the 10 commandment is no stranger to even my 2 year old nephew. Overfamiliarity has somewhat watered down its effect. These days sef, people don't lie, steal and all other what nots, they cause people to do ΐτ̅. If u can move out of our stereotypic religious view of God and christianity, then, u'll see the sense in this. End of quote.

You don't comprehend. Read my post again. Once again, GOD is never mocked, never!

"And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. " (Matthew 25:32-33)

One thing will make the sheep distinct from the goat -SIN

"And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. " (Matthew 5:29-30)

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." (Matthew 7:21-23)

"But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. " (Matthew 4:4)

"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?" (Romans 6:1-2)

The word of GOD, there is nothing like unto it

Where muslims never make a joke with their 'allah', church-goers create joke with the infallible word of GOD, His word that He exalts above His Holy name. Kai,,,these people know not what they are doing.

"It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." (Hebrews 10:31)

"And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. " (Luke 16:

Oh, be thou exalted oh LORD of hosts,,,in generations past, this generation and in the generation to come, GOD is never mocked. No, no, NEVER!!!!

"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7)

Yes. There would be a second chance for people left behind:

"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." (Revelation 20:4)

But this should not be an excuse to be careless to miss rapture. Because you don't know if you'll be alive to witness the event. Because if one dies to face judgement, no second chance. Aside that, what makes you think mortal man like you can stand the wrath of the Almighty GOD? What makes you think you can withstand the suffering from the agents of darkness, when there would be torment and deceit here and there. Number one, imagine no food for a week. See, if you know how horrifying war is, example, if you know what happened in the most destructive war the world has ever witnessed so far(world war II), such evil and pestilence can never be compared to what will happen to mankind in the great tribulation. Hunger, famine, earthquake, tsunami, hurricane, holocaust, torment, torture, infreno, disaster, name them

Prepare for the coming of the master JESUS CHRIST o. Make you dey the presence of GOD dey relax and being hundred percent sure of inheriting the new heaven and the new earth than playing the dicey game which the tendency of you loosing is very high.

Be wise, start now.....

It's not good. You already know such thing is not good and you're very correct there is a big difference between a christian and a church-goer. As a christian, forgive him, don't hold it against him, pray to GOD to change his heart and not hold these things against him
