U are very correct

Are there no Christians in man u team?

But it is only a Muslim player who rejected it

We Christians Sha....

May God help us ooo
That is the only good thing I admire in Muslims. They are very firm in whatever it is they believe in. Compromise is the worst thing that corrupted Christianity.

All Church Denominations started, or Founded by Nigerians, are Fraud Centers.

We go back to the main topic of the thread.

So your opinion was not bible based....you were just dishing out thoughts and expecting us to make sense out of it?
Meaning any opinion not bible based is nonsense. Right?
Romance › Re: Why Are Girls Putting On Waist Beads To Have Sex? by essentialone(m): 5:59pm On Dec 04, 2024
Condom has a known use. Even if you like give it to a child to use as balloon, anyone who sees it, already knows the main reason for it.

Same with waist beads and leg chains. If you like call it fashion. If you like call it whatever thing you feel like.

Anyone who sees a lady wearing waist bead or leg chain or nose ring already knows she is either a Prostitute or a Lesbian or both, even if she is married and even if she is a Reverend Sister.

End of Discussion.

[quote author=Michael547 post=133160388][/quote]It was totally unnecessary. I was not preaching. If I was preaching, then I may need to refer you to bible passages. But I was not. I was stating my opinion, which has been borne out of several factors such as experience, observation, understanding, etc.

Asking for Bible verse was irrelevant on the discourse.

Hookup knows no gender, the only difference is the ladies being weaker.
If you're reading this and you have a young female growing up around, could be your sister, niece, daughter, neighbors daughter, please always talk to them, advice them and sometimes gift them stuffs like money or hygiene products.
I have seen a father telling his 15yrs old daughter to go look for a job because she asked for money to buy pad. I have been giving this girl 5k monthly allowance for 2yrs now.
Most times, it is not longer throat, it is circumstances. Help if you can. Advice them if you get the chance. They're our daughters and sisters.

You're welcome.

Christians and disciples of Christ means the same thing!
Ok thanks for sharing your own personal opinion on this. The beauty of knowledge is that it is like a big elephant with several blind persons touching different parts of it, and each describing how the elephant is, based on the part of the elephant that they experienced. None was totally correct and none was totally wrong.

Once again thanks.

That's fine if you cannot. You cannot force a point on people's throat without explanation.
No one was forcing anything on anyone.

What I mentioned was my personal opinion, which if you must know, is an opinion that I clearly believe in. If it aligns with your personal views, you say so. If it does not align with your personal views, you disagree with it and tell us what your own personal opinions are about the subject matter.

Asking me questions and for bible passages to prove this or that isn't necessary. This is neither a law court, nor a project defense center.

You are funny. You made a point and I asked a question. So how is that looking for argument. Is it not better you just admit that you can't explain the point you made?
I admit I cannot explain the point I made.

Tell me any other thing you want me to admit to, I surely and clearly will do so.

You clearly said that a Christian may necessarily not be a disciple of Christ. So i have asked you what can make a Christian not to be necessarily a disciple of Christ. Explain.
Lol. I no get strength to gist with someone hard of understanding. But in case of next time, what you do if you are really learning, is to state the points you have understood so far from what is being discussed. Then state the areas where you need further clarification, pointing out why that or those area is not yet clear to you. Anything other than that, na argument you dey find, and I am so not having the strength for it.

Christianity Etc › Re: All Church Denominations started, or Founded by Nigerians, are Fraud Centers. by essentialone(op): 4:01pm On Dec 04, 2024
For the purpose of clarity, all I have been saying is this: A "Christian" focuses on Self. salvation of his soul, prayer for personal problems, etc.

A true disciple of Jesus Christ focuses on others. Living a life of service, a life of charity, in fact a disciple must die, and Christ will be born in the person, not spiritually, but practically and you may even say physically. A true disciple of Jesus Christ can belong to a church denomination, so as not to forsake the gathering of the brethren, but his or her true place of serving and imitating Christ, is in all Humanity. Not bounded by any religious rules, practices, or observances.

By now, even someone in JSS1 should have understood clearly my point.

Explain with scriptures why a Christian cannot be a true disciple of Christ.
Dont ask me for scriptures again. If and when I see any need to reference any passage, I will.

Meanwhile, I never said a Christian cannot be a true disciple of Christ. If you read that, please tag it where I said so.

Said by someone who has not even quoted a single scripture. If you do not have Bible, go and buy one. It is cheaper than data. Stop asking me to quote as if this is a Law Court. I obliged you earlier, but I am not a fan of bible quotations. Read it and understand what you are being directed to do. Not jumping around with chapter this verse that, as if that will change the price of garri in the market.

So did the disciples meet together as they carried out the commission given to them by Christ or they went their own independent way?

Were Jesus disciples later called Christians?
A brief summary to bring you into the discussion, before you derail: "all disciples of Jesus Christ are Christians, but not all Christians are necessarily true disciples of Jesus Christ."

"he alleged that Aare Afe Babalola corrupted the Judiciary and procured judgements in the supreme court there by exposing him to hatred, contempt, ridicule and damage his hard earn career."

But what he said, is it not the Truth? Why do most Nigerians get angry when told the Truth about themselves?

Shameful.

You need to read the above passages clearly, not with a mind that wants to argue or speak big grammar, but with a mind that understands words-beyond-words.

If you do, then you will understand clearly what it means to be a Disciple of Jesus Christ.

Then juxtapose it with any and everything you already know about Christianity and being a Christian.
