Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Most Nigerian Recruiters Don't Get Back to Interviewees by esere826: 4:48pm On Nov 09, 2021 |
Bonaventura: It would be great and polite if they responded, but they owe you nothing unfortunately. It's like a movie start not greeting you back after you've said hi. You're expending 1 person effort in saying hi to them, but they'd be expending thousands of persons energy to say hi back to every one that greets them. Maybe if the firms were more tech savvy, they be able to within 5 minutes send an email to everyone not accepted, but unfortunately with the way they currently operate, it might be some 2 hrs of their time collating and sending out such mails, so not worth their time. 5 Likes 1 Share |

The Oba of Benin is wise enough not to advice Emami about changing the rules in the middle of the game. It's like his throne. There is a rule for it. It is passed from father to first son. It's not done the Yoruba or Fulani way were kings are chosen from princes. 1 Like |

LaEvilIMiss: You have every right to argue against something like you did in the other points, but dont let your hatred for christianity blind you to common sense. When other "big" pastors go ahead to have massive crowds packed like sardines with no one wearing masks dont you still critisize them? Adeboye wears a face mask not because he is scared of covid, but because he is a leader and needs to lead by example so that it is easier for others to follow. Wont you critisize him for not seen to be following government protocols? I also wear a face mask when I go out. It is not because I am scared of covid, but because in where I live, the government requires us to. It would be stupid and make mockery of Christiany plus direct hatred towards us if newspapers carry a story that i was arrested and started protesting my arrest saying that I am a child of God and so Covid can not hurt me. ..just wear your thinking hat abeg. 5 Likes |

CrestMan: hahahaha sense ruled indeed. Dude YOU DONT READ YOUR BIBLE Vaccine .....lost forever ......why? Is vaccine given in the forehead or is it given in the right hand? Last i knew, it is given on the arm, any arm. What does the bible say about the mark of the beast that you that are supposed to a blazing son of God are so scared of? Rev 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads Ok, let's imagine that the vaccine is not the mark of the beast but poison, what did Jesus tell you? Ah. Same verse that talks about healing the sick (let's say healing covid) also says: Mark 16:18 They will pick up snakes, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them. They will place their hands on the sick and cure them." O, let me guess your response. The scripture says drink and not inject abi? But likewise the scripture says recieve mark and does not say receive injection Do you have another high wisdom that you wanna share? LoL If you and your pastor want to go to church, no wahala Just dont put your mouth into another persons ministry especially when you are still an infant lacking in understanding of things way bigger than you. |

CrestMan: "Respecting" protocols (or being seen to be respecting it) does not mean fear. It is actually wisdom Why get 1,000 infected then only heal one? In your church is every single person healed or saved from whatever afflictions they have? Why make enemy of the state for something as simple as chill till this is over (and it will be over) Do you know that you became a christian because the state "supported" it? If you dont know this, ever wondered why China is not full of Chrstians nor even full of those that can wage war to push their religion? Wait a minute, even up North of Nigeria, how come with all the mega churches down south, you have not mobilized obeying God to go and preach the gospel forcefully in the North that is within a day's travel? Do you know that while the angel of death plagued the Egyptians, the jews where isolating indoors as commanded by God? Preaching the word does not only mean physical church, otherwise churches wont be broadcasting on tv and online. In fact, insisting on stepping into church demonstrates a low level of faith. Remember that Jesus spoke the word to the centurions serveant without meeting the centurion or the serveant and yet there was healing If your church has a branch in say UK, have you found out from them if they are respectful of what the government says about covid, or do they insist on "preaching the word" to a crowded church? Where are your pastors kids (or where is the dad's wish for them to go)? are they in Nigeria where laws are broken to preach the gospel or in the western where gospel is preached within the law?

Family / Re: What Will You Do If You Have My Kind Of Parents? by esere826: 7:58pm On Sep 19, 2020 |
SecretSpy666: If your families action makes you a bitter person, then the christian faith teaches us to forgive. And its very important for your sanity not theirs. But forgiving does not make you their bread winner or sustainer at all. That kind of forgiveness is based on the flesh wanting to be righteous. Your righteousness is of God, so you should be going to God in prayer if you feel hurt and telling him that you feel hurt but he should help you forgive them. He will do it for you. You are not bound to help anyone, especially those who want a relationship with you because of money. Real families are not family only because they want something. These ones are gold diggers and you should avoid them so they dont negatively influence your kids with their wicked way of thinking. Dont worry. In this life, the only family that you need is your God. He will give you true friends and a good family. (Remember that forgiveness does not mean being close to someone nor giving them money. I dont know why people think it does) |

seunmsg: Are you a child with little knowledge of current history or are you just trying to deceive gullible and ignorant people? That move was masterminded by your very own tin god Tinubu and a lot of his Yoruba party reps. Obasanja was upset because he wanted Jonathan to force Tanbuwal out just like Oshiomole tried to do against Saraki using DSS. Remember that Obasanjo regularly forced out those who he didnt like out of power. Even the rate of high profile political assasination was high during his time. At that time Jonathan did not have the balls to do something like that.(and rightly so). Jonathan was upset when Tambuwal decamped later on. Jonathan then tried to act the little Hitler role by using the cops to get rid of Tambuwal. It failed just as the DSS operation against Saraki failed. Please dont stupidly recreate history |

Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven" (Matthew 22: 29) I admire your intelligent question However, it appears to me that you were largely misled in knowledge as most christians are (same with me) Why not ask God to answer you questions -He will in snippets. I also had this issue you just raised and I asked Him. Here is a summary of what happens: As a human, you are not an absolute. You only work according to your programming The thing that excites humans is not what excites other beings. A goat does not dance to music, nether does it stare lustfully at a beautiful girl -that is not its programming Different beings have been given different programming When you get to heaven you programing will change, hence Jesus talks about the "power of God" in the verse above Your programming will make the things of heaven so beautiful that you cannot even imagine Your senses or "excitement" are nothing even on earth without your programming some people even on earth dont feel pain because a disease has killed that programming Some cant smel all the good or bad stuff a child is not concerned about sex when the programmed juices have not kicked in.

Religion / Re: Pastors Are Tithers Not Tithe Collectors by esere826: 4:29pm On Nov 18, 2017 |
Like I said about Petra1 recently, he has indeed tried by bringing in some "logic" Thanks to him, For the first time in my many years as a christian, I have seen new points of view in the pro-tithe argument Previously all i saw from both the masters and minions were repetitions of Malachi, and at best a mention that tithing was before the law. yeah, I do not believe in or should I say, see from the bible, tithing as-is presently trumpeted However, there is no doubt that Money is needed and if the church decides it is by "modern tithing", so be it, -no need trying to use Malachi to blackmail people. In the first break out of the church, without any reference to the "old testament" ("new testament "did not even exist then) the church decided to sell all they had and bring the proceeds into the church -ie, they created their own model of Church support Annaias and Sapphira didnt need to be a part of that community, and even if they were, they could have just been floor member and hold on to their money, but no -they lied and were struck dead Now I do not say this to scare anyone No, I say it for us to understand that most "communities" including a church can decide on a model for raising money. -no need trying to force scripture on top. A church can decide that its official members pay 10%, or less or more of their earnings and actually go as far as defining exactly what that 10% should mean. For example it can say that after the parents have "tithed" and then shared money to the kids, whether the kids should also "tithe" or not. (-this would save us from referring to the bible to find out hwether it is beer drinking or grains) the church is free to bless anyone who brings in this "tithe" , either spiritually or by granting some priviledges such as performing marriage rights afterall, it is written that: "whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." ...and if sadly the church worker decides to lie about this "tithe" which they were not forced to partake in just like Ananias did, the church can choose its sanction. |

This whole tithing vs anti-tithing thing is something that in my opinion should be discussed solely amongst only christians. - Not needing the retort to gutter-y insults The practice or non-conformity is amongst christians and no one else. I see no need to include or respond to unbelievers in support of any side of the debate. In the house of Christ, we have enough people with spiritual and brain power to properly handle the bible debates and societal impacts The only time unbelievers need be involved in our matter is when there there is a strong overlap with the wider society such as tax paying, suspected fraud, need for audit, law breaking, threat to government and society etc. Paul and Barnabas argued, so did Peter and Paul, and Paul and so many others -all were christians with different persuasions Even Emperor Constantine when wading into christian arguments at the council of Nicea, did so as a christian, albeit a "baby" one. ..We must remember that no matter how saintly or tainted we are we are not baptized into our MOG's or personal revelations,... no we are all baptized into one Jesus, one father, one Spirit. and should respect that in our arguments. As for me, I am happy that Christians are beginning to think and ask questions again I am not a tither, neither am I less blessed than those that tithe I tried it and was bugged by endless guilt -maybe because of the way pastors presented the message to me compared to what i saw when i read the bible. The topic of tithing is one thing the Holy Spirit as neither "told" me Yes or No about (although I am made aware that Jesus mission does need lots of money). My guess is that many of us have also received heavenly silence on that topic. So I believe its left for the different sides to enlighten us 1 Like |
Religion / Re: God Has Failed Me by esere826: 7:20pm On Nov 16, 2017 |
martinfischer: Did God give you any instructions? I dont believe that God can fail. However, our knowledge and info about God can fail because it was wrong in the first place. Aethists do business and succeed using strategies.- It sometimes fails. If you even keenly observe pastors that are successful, you notice that they have strategies -it sometimes fails too. When you pray to God, try to open your mind to strategies that could flood in from anywhere. Even some of those strategies might not always work, but the sum total would be that your success (not neccesarily that one business) will grow Even this your loss will end up summing up into your success growth |
Religion / Re: The Error Of Daddy Freeze . by esere826: 6:45pm On Nov 12, 2017 |
petra1: MuttleyLaff: Freeze made is point and welcomed debates. Fair enough One can choose to either ignore him or actually debate the idea with some biblical "logic" What I've found amusing is that a couple of senior christians who i respect have jumped in and used emotions as a tool in such a "debate". For example, one of the big MOG's dismissed and rebuked Freeze for mentioning beer in relation to tithe. However, this was so off the context in which Freez spoke. Many bible translations do have that verse of the bible mentioning strong drink. (that he doesnt agree with it does not mean that it does not exist) Another MOG jumped on the bandwagon and was busy defending the 1st MOG based on emotions with barely any biblical logic. This is same way the catholic church used to behave in ages past. Their leadership just said anything (even outside of the bible) and expected everyone to fall into line. Petra1 tried (I'm not saying he's right or wrong) I say so because he's a pastor and could have taken the easier route of ignoring or just going straight to Malachi and threatening its curse for anyone who disagrees with his tithing view -people are scared of this. He didnt. Instead he has attempted to trace the genesis of tithing, and to distinguish different types. I might not completely agree with him, but I appreciate that he is enriching the discussion. As it is written. ..... Study to show yourself approved 1 Like |
