pickabeau1, this one is for you bro.
Enjoy watching Leroy Thompson and Creflo Dollar or throw up
- Now you know why he couldn't muster strength to turn up at Hagin's called meeting

My goodness...this is pure and undiluted idolatry.

God and mammon (money) should not be mixed together.

It's beyond grief that only the 'prosperity preachers' are richly blessed, whilst their members keep floating their business empires.
Why is that their members are not living large in mansions, driving bentley cars, no private jets, shopping in exclusive boutiques and such likes..is our God a partial God?

Here's another link to one of them, http://www.bishopjordan.com/

I saw the video link from 2008 and I'm not surprised with the level of deception going on within the pentecostal churches.

It was about the ordination of Apostle Fredrick K.C. Price. What is being done in the video, is it biblical?

It's a very good development for Nigeria.

At least the stigma from other countries will stop immediately.

Other books written a while back are:

An opportunity for Mr Fayose to budget for a new government house in the 2015 budgetary plan for Ekiti State.
What happened to the government house built by him during his own tenure?

We like to waste too much resources in this country.

But GEJ and his media spokesmen said many times they won't negotiate with Boko Haram.
Also it has been peddled several times that Boko Haram is APC, does that mean the government will provide the names of the Boko Haram sponsors?

Why the sudden change of action?

GENEVA (AP) — The U.N. health agency has officially declared an end to the Ebola outbreak in Senegal.

The World Health Organization says it commends the country for its diligence in putting a stop to the transmission of the virus.

In a statement Friday the WHO said the sole introduced case was confirmed Aug. 29 in a young man who had travelled to Dakar, by road, from Guinea, where he had had direct contact with an Ebola patient.

The statement called Senegal's response "a good example of what to do when faced with an imported case of Ebola."

It said Senegal government's response included identifying and monitoring 74 close contacts of the patient, prompt testing of all suspected cases, stepped-up surveillance at many entry points and public awareness campaigns.

christemmbassey:
what they preach is fraud, it can not stand d test of time. Why their Nigerian counterparts appears to be succeeding is bc naija sustains fraud, but its a matter of time.

Thank you. Exactly my thoughts.

Most of the reports I have read about 'prosperity preachers' have shown that majority of them are not good steward of money. They spend money lavishingly on baseless things, yet they continue to teach their members to 'sow' in order to be debt free. Whilst they are been declared bankrupt and yet some people will see all these atrocities and still accept 'prosperity gospel'.

No wonder their ministeries cannot provide analysis of how the various contributions they received are accounted for - their favorite slogan is always, "the money belongs to God".

Why is it that only the 'prosperity preachers' and their few cronies get all the prosperity and wealth, whilst their members are still struggling to make ends meet? Does this mean that the members don't have enough faith to 'name it and claim it' to get the desired wealth.

An Air France plane was isolated at Madrid's airport on Thursday because of a suspected Ebola case after a passenger was reported to have a fever and shivers, officials said.

The passenger, who had traveled from Lagos, Nigeria, was taken by ambulance to an unspecified hospital in Madrid but the rest of the passengers were allowed to leave the plane as normal, Air France said in a statement.

The flight, carrying 163 people, arrived in Madrid from Paris, the company said. The plane was taken to a special area of the airport.

A Spanish Health Ministry spokeswoman said authorities were treating it as a suspected Ebola case. The official spoke on condition of anonymity in keeping with the regulations of her office.

Earlier, a Health Ministry official said the condition of the Spanish nursing assistant with Ebola appeared to be improving but a person who came into contact with her before she was hospitalized Oct. 6 has a fever and will be hospitalized and tested for the virus.

Teresa Romero, 44, is in stable condition at Madrid's Carlos III hospital and the level of Ebola virus in her body was declining, ministry spokesman Fernando Simon said. Romero has been hospitalized for 10 days.

Meanwhile, Danish authorities were also testing a medical worker for Ebola from Doctors Without Borders who had been in West Africa.

Sweden said it would give an additional 100 million kronor ($14 million) in humanitarian aid to support efforts to fight the Ebola outbreak. That was in addition to $140 million ($19 million) pledged previously.

The passenger, who had traveled from Lagos, Nigeria, was taken by ambulance to an unspecified hospital in Madrid but the rest of the passengers were allowed to leave the plane as normal, Air France said in a statement.

Passenger arrived from Lagos, but the plane arrived in Madrid from Paris.
So did the plane left Lagos to Paris, or Paris en-route Lagos?
How is this possible, or am I reading the article wrongly?

Prevention is better than cure

Lol... whose idea was that?

A big thank you and job well done to all the relevant agencies and individuals who made the eradication a success.

This shows we Nigerians can achieve lots if we are determined.

We pray for the speedy recovering of the two nurses.

I thought some people are of the opinion that Ebola was designed by the US and the Drugs companies to reduced the population of Africans.

Ladies wanting to eat their cakes and still have them.

spyx64:
First I would like, Mr Chairman, if I may, pay tribute to Nigerians as a whole who are enduring all sorts of hardships and deprivations on a daily basis. Many millions are grappling with extreme poverty and barely eking out a living. Nearly all are in fear of their lives or safety for themselves and their families due to Insurgency by the godless movement called Boko Haram;

By marauding murderers in towns and villages;
By armed robbers on the highways;
By kidnappers who have put whole communities to fright and sometimes to flight.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is everyone’s duty to resolve and help the national effort to overcome these immense challenges. I would like us to place on record our appreciation for the efforts of our Armed Forces under new leadership and police in confronting these challenges.

I would like, secondly, to thank our supporters up and down the country for their perseverance and resolve in face of an oppressive PDP government.

Mr Chairman, this is an occasion to celebrate our efforts and to resolve to continue until victory is won. I humbly wish to present myself before you, before all of Nigeria and before God seeking to be elected as APC’s Presidential candidate. Having appreciated that the only way to relieve Nigerians of the PDP, the main opposition parties decided to pool their strengths into one party. We have worked very hard in the last 18 months to put up structures from the polling units to wards, local governments, states and the centre.

We have tried to ensure all processes in our party formation to be transparent and credible. These structures will lead to free and fair polls. There is no point in holding elections if they are not free and fair.

Interference in the form of rigging which PDP Government has practised since 2003 is the worst form of injustice – denying people their right to express their opinions. Whether they like it or not, injustice cannot endure.

Since 1999 PDP has presided over our country’s decline. Nigeria in my experience has never been so divided, so polarized by an unthinking government hell bent on ruling and stealing forever whatever befalls the country. Mr Chairman, we in APC are resolved to stop them in their tracks and rescue Nigeria from the stranglehold of PDP.

The last 16 years of PDP Government has witnessed decline in all critical sectors of life in Nigeria

There is now general insecurity in the land
Quite apart from Boko Haram, there is prevalence of Armed Robbery, kidnappings and killings, cattle rustling, market and farmland arson.

These outrages have taken a new and a frightening dimension, disrupting economic and social life across whole communities.

The economy continues to deteriorate while the Government continues to announce fantastic growth figures but manufacturing is down, agriculture is down, commerce is down
Simply because you sell oil and steal part of the money does not entitle you to cook figures and announce phantom economic growth when all the major indices namely,

Employment
Manufacturing
Farming
Trading
are demonstrably on the decline.

When PDP came to power in 1999 Nigeria was generating about 4,000 M/W of electricity. After 15 years and $20 billion spent we are generating between 3,000 – 4,000 M/W. No failure is more glaring than this.
We in APC are resolved to bring change to Nigeria. We plan to do things differently.

We plan to put priority on

Protection of lives and property.
Pursuing economic policies for shared prosperity and immediate attention on youth employment.
Quality education for development, modernity and social mobility.
Agricultural productivity for taking millions out of poverty and ensuring food security.
Reviving Industry to generate employment and “make things” not just to remain hawkers of other peoples’ goods.
Developing solid minerals exploitation which will substantially attract employment and revenue for government.
Restoring honour and integrity to public service by keeping the best and attracting the best.
Tackling corruption which has become blatant and widespread. The rest of the world looks at Nigeria as the home of corruption. Nigeria is a country where stealing is not corruption.[i][/i]
Last, (but not the least or final) respecting the constitutional separation of powers between the executive, legislatures and judiciary and respecting the rights of citizens.
Mr Chairman, there, in outline are some policy proposals about the direction APC should take when, by the grace of God, we are given the responsibility of serving Nigeria in Government.

Well done for your passion.

How did some of the congregation listen to this pastor for so many years?

MONTGOMERY, Ala. – After listening to his sermons for 24 years, parishioners of the Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church probably thought they knew the Rev. Juan D. McFarland.
But from the very pulpit where he preached about God's love and service to the community, he delivered some stunning revelations: He had had affairs with women in the parish — and neglected to tell them he had AIDS.

Perhaps because McFarland was so well-regarded, the church's deacons initially had sympathy.
"It was surprise, shock, but I think the leadership team did not react wanting to get him out. We wanted to get him help," said James Long, vice chairman of the board of trustees.
McFarland refused — and in a later sermon dropped another bombshell: He had been abusing drugs.
That was enough. The deacons voted 80-1 to fire him on Oct. 5, but McFarland refused to leave, going so far as to change the building's locks and the numbers of the church's bank account before returning to the pulpit on Oct. 12, Long said.

On Tuesday, the first business day following his last appearance, the deacons announced that they had filed a lawsuit to force McFarland out.The church's website portrays the pastor as a man of passion, prayer and purpose "whose life is centered in Jesus Christ."

The suit describes McFarland as a man practicing "debauchery, sinfulness, hedonism, sexual misconduct, dishonesty, thievery and rejection of the Ten Commandments."
It asks a judge to block him from serving as minister and give them control of the church complex, its bank accounts and a Mercedes Benz furnished for the pastor's use."We are just trying to minister to the flock and get the church back in order," Long said. McFarland remained unfazed by the news.

"I will command the pulpit from this day forward," he said in a brief telephone interview Tuesday. He declined further comment, saying he and his attorney needed more time to review the suit. He would not disclose his attorney's name. In a related development, Wells Fargo Bank filed court papers Tuesday saying that because McFarland sought to change control of the church's bank account, it can't determine who has the rightful claim to $56,211 in the account. It sent the court a check for the full amount and asked to be relieved of responsibility.

Nathan Williams, chairman of the board of deacons, said the church normally has about 170 members show up each Sunday.Only about 50 heard McFarland's most recent sermon. Williams and other church leaders said they went elsewhere to avoid any confrontation.
In the sermon, McFarland recounted stories from the books of Matthew and Luke about Jesus healing people.

"Sometimes the worst times in our lives is when we have a midnight situation — and we are in a midnight situation," he said. "When you pray, you've got to forgive. You can't go down on your knees hating somebody, or wishing something bad will happen to somebody."
An attorney for the church leaders said the sermons need to end. "He needs to get the message that he needs to be gone," attorney Julian McPhillips said.

McFarland, 47, has not been charged with any wrongdoing. Knowingly spreading a sexually transmitted disease is a misdemeanor in Alabama punishable by up to a year in jail. Court records show McFarland had two marriages end in divorce after wives filed suit to end the unions. Neither complaint mentioned allegations of adultery or other wrongdoing.

Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church was founded in 1919. McFarland became pastor in 1990, and the church built a new complex near Alabama State University in 1993.

The question that still begs answering to is, why do most of these 'prosperity preachers' get declared bankrupt in their ministry?

Why aren't they practicing what they preach to their members?

WinsomeX:
^^^ Wow

The Bishop Clarence McClendon again apparently divorced from his 2nd marriage to Priscilla Delgado in 2002, due to financial scandal.

Yet he still continues to preach on TBN.

"In a heated scene on “Preachers of LA” with Gospel recording artist and former pastor Deitrick Haddon" - even Deitrick Haddon is a divorcee according to the article below:

Deitrick Haddon, who is working hard to rebuild his brand, is slowly fighting his way back after a cloud of controversy surrounding his divorce from fellow gospel singer, and former wife of 15 years, Damita Haddon, overshadowed his longtime successful career.
Haddon, who accused “In the Middle” singer, Isaac Carree, of sleeping with his ex and causing the irreparable rift that led to the once strong couple’s permanent split, is now engaged to marry the mother of his out-of-wedlock daughter, Angel Destin Monet.

http://www.gospelredefined.com/2013/05/pastors-in-reality-tv-show-based-on.html

What is it with Prosperity Preachers and getting divorce for no important reason?

An article about Bishop Clarence McClendon -

Luke 20:46
Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;

If you’ve watched much so called Christian television in this country you’ve probably seen Clarence McClendon stalking the stage in his Los Angeles church or perhaps you’ve seen him ordering viewers to the phones during a TBN beg-a-thon.
Wearing long brightly colored robes, a catholic style clerical collar, a big gold cross swinging from his neck, McClendon is hard to miss. Like his colorful apparel the bishop is a conglomeration of preaching styles and beliefs.

Part word of faith, part latter rain/dominionist, part ecumenist, Clarence McClendon seems to incorporate every faulty doctrine and man made tradition filling the religious market today.
As with most of these apostates, money and how to get it plays a major role in McClendon’s preaching. He proclaims the “seed faith” message with the fervor of a Rod Parsley, adds some ecumenist “can’t we all just get along” pleading in the spirit of T.D. Jakes and throws in some positive thinking nuggets worthy of Tony Robbins. Something for everybody. No heresy left behind!

According to his bio, Clarence E. McClendon is quite the busy man. He reportedly began preaching at the age of fifteen, assumed his first pastorate at the age of nineteen and today serves as Senior Pastor of Full Harvest International Church in Los Angeles Ca. In addition he has founded the Siloam Bible College and Clarence E McClendon Leadership Institute as well as the Full Harvest Network of Churches, Ministries, and Entrepreneurs.

He is often introduced as Dr. Clarence McClendon and his P.H.D. is prominent throughout his website. A call to his office confirmed that his P.H.D. was acquired through Friends International Christian University, an unaccredited school based in Merced Ca. F.I.C.U specializes in degrees by correspondence and claims such religious notables as T.D. Jakes, Frederick K.C. Price, and Ira & Bridgett Hilliard among their doctoral alumni.

F.I.C.U. offers students the opportunity to advance rapidly through a degree program with the application of “lifetime learning credits” This means that your life and work experience may be applied toward your degree in lieu of actual classroom work. Some might refer to this type of school as a diploma mill. I’ll allow the reader to make his own judgment. The ministry claims that currently over 160 million homes in North America, South America, the Middle East, Europe and Africa have access to C.E.M.M television broadcasts. On top of that, Bishop McClendon hosts Gathering Force Crusades in major cities across America drawing tens of thousands throughout the year.

Sounds like he’s got all the bases covered. But wait, that’s not all!
McClendon also serves on the Bishops Council of the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship, the College of Bishops of the International Communion of Charismatic Churches, is the California Regent for President Bush’s Faith Based Initiative Faith Center, and serves as a board member of the Do Something Foundation which advertises itself as a think tank of some of Americas top young leaders.
Are you impressed yet? Well, if not there’s more!
The Bishop is not only a preacher, broadcaster, administrator, educator, and entrepreneur par excellence he’s also an accomplished author and musician having three books and a Billboard top ten CD to his credit.
How does this guy possibly find time for church and family? Well, that’s where he seems to have run into a little problem.
1Tim 3:2
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
Full Harvest International Church was affiliated with the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel (ICFG) when McClendon assumed the pastorate in 1991. In 2003 however he abruptly withdrew his church from that denomination citing “politics, real estate and systematic racism” as the reasons. ICFG officials denied the charges claiming that African Americans were represented in all levels of leadership within the denomination.

The real story seems to be a little more sordid.
After 16 years of marriage (and four children) “Bishop” Clarence McClendon announced his divorce from wife Tammera with the following statement to Charisma New Service
’McClendon said that he had married at 18 "for all the wrong reasons." He added: "The only reason [it] lasted as long as it did was because we both loved God. [Tammy] just made a decision about what she wanted to do with the rest of her life. I'm sad to say we are completely divorced."’
He added “"I have a calling to preach, not to be married. My calling is between my heavenly Father and myself. It doesn't affect my ministry."
It seems that his calling to “preach, not to be married” changed however when he married Priscilla Delgado of Los Angeles only seven days after his divorce from Tammera was finalized.
The ceremony was performed by Bishop Earl Paulk who was supposedly providing spiritual counseling to McClendon at the time. McClendons ex wife tells a different story. According to Tammera her husband had wanted out of the marriage for the last five years.
"I didn't want a divorce," Tammera told Charisma. "When I finally said yes to Clarence, he asked me to file because it would look bad if he divorced me-which could hurt his ministry." She also denied that racism played a part in the split from ICFG.

"Clarence shared everything with me before we had marital problems, and he never once said that Foursquare was racist toward him," she said. Apparently the Foursquare denomination has a policy requiring newly divorced ministers to step down from the pulpit for at least six months and to undergo a review by the denomination's Ethics Committee. McClendon of course claimed that this policy had nothing to do with his decision to withdraw.
Does anyone else smell a rat here?
I ask this question. Based on scripture, is Clarence McClendon qualified for the office of bishop?
When a man is not qualified for an office yet refuses to relinquish that office, what does that say about this man’s true beliefs and character. What does it say about those who support him in his efforts to remain a pastor and bishop?

Math 7:15-16
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Jesus said we shall know them by their fruits. Not only by what they say but by what their lives produce.
Clarence McClendon is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He wears a mask. He deceives gullible Christians with his smooth words. Attempting to hold on to all his accolades, all his exalted positions, all his acclaim within the Christian community this man jeopardizes not only his own immortal soul but others as well. He brings disrepute upon the Lord Jesus Christ and causes the world to hold the entire body of Christ in contempt.
If we truly loved the Lord and his word we would not be deceived by such men. Our response should be the same as Paul ordered in 1Cor 5. We should remove this man from fellowship and turn him over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh in the hope that he might repent and his spirit be saved.
Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Civilization is indeed very far from Nigeria and Nigerians, and these set of people are meant to govern us. SMH

The rapid development of any nation will occur as a result of effective and efficient transportation system.
Most roads - federal and states need urgent reconstruction.

So much funds have been budgeted for these roads, yet they are all very bad.

Our leaders are very wicked.

The animals are so lovely.

An article from 2004 about Jesse Duplantis:

This week, Jesse stars in the new reality TV show “Keeping up with the Copelands!”
A few weeks ago I revealed how Kenneth and Gloria Copeland are trying to manipulate their followers into buying them two new Cessna Citation X private jets.
Well, not to be outdone by the Copeland's, Jesse has decided that he too must have a new Cessna Citation X in order to “preach the gospel to the world”

According to Jesse’s website :
”God has given JDM a commission to, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature" (Mark 16:15). As these last days draw to a close, it's time to speed up the work and reach more nations with the Gospel. God will not be satisfied with a half-fulfilled assignment and neither should we”.

In order to complete this assignment, God has told us to believe Him for a Citation X (10), an $18 million corporate jet with the speed and fuel capacity to fly anywhere in the world.”

With apologies to Janis Joplin
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Citation Ten
I’ve been flying Delta, I must make amends
Worked hard all my lifetime preaching about sin,
So Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Citation Ten
Kenneth and Gloria are asking for two
I know that’s greedy, for me just one will do
I’m begging my partners to send their cash in,
So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Citation Ten!

Here’s an interesting story from the book of Acts that you should consider if you’ve ever felt led to give to one of these covetous wolves.
In Acts chapter 8 the story is told of Philip the evangelist who went to Samaria and preached Christ unto them (verse 5-13). After this the angel of the Lord tells Philip to go down to Gaza. (verse 26). As he was going he came upon a man in a chariot who was reading a scroll of the book of Isaiah. The Lord told Philip to go up to the man in the chariot.
Philip explained the meaning of Isaiah’s prophecy. This particular passage is found in Isaiah chapter 53 which is the gospel. So Philip preached the gospel, the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ to this man. Upon hearing and understanding the gospel, the man wished to be baptized which Philip did.

Now check out this verse:
Acts 8: 39-40
And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

Philip was translated from the middle of the desert to Azotus, (Ashdod) and he didn’t need a $20 million dollar jet to get there! Do you realize that within a few years after the day of Pentecost the early church had preached the gospel in almost the entire known world. And it didn’t cost them billions and billions of dollars. And they didn’t need satellite TV and private jets to do it.

What they did need was obedience to the Lord. What it cost them was their lives. When you finally decide to lay down your life, your will, your plans and take up the cross in obedience to the great commission, the Lord will make sure you get to wherever he wants you to go.
On his website Duplantis talks about those who would give to this project being obedient to the leading of the Lord. Well Jesse let me tell you about obedience. Philip was obedient to the leading of the Lord. You should take a lesson from a real evangelist.

Repent from the preaching of your false gospel! Repent of your covetous idolatry! You should sell everything you have, return the money to your partners and actually lay down your life for Christ.
2Cor 11: 13-15
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

No wonder our Nigerian Pastors don't want to be left out in having private jets for the work of the gospel.

Both are very good source of protein in the right proportion.

In growing children animal protein is good, whilst for adults, less consumption of animal protein and more of plant protein is advisable because of cholestrol in their body.

An indeed controversial high ranking Nigeria police officer, Joseph Mbu, has ordered the arrest and detention of a journalist for describing him as “controversial” on a TV programme.
The journalist, Amaechi Anakwe, a reporter cum presenter for the African Independent Television, AIT, was detained Thursday morning after he reported at the Zone 7 police headquarters in Abuja, on the invitation of Mr. Mbu.
Mr. Mbu had demanded to see the journalist shortly after he described him as controversial on a TV programme on his station, Matters Arising.
Mr. Anakwe’s colleague told PREMIUM TIMES the police officer sent in the first call for the reporter last Friday.
It was turned down on technicalities after the media house complained the letter inviting Mr. Anakwe was addressed to the reporter in his personal capacity.
A subsequent invitation was served on the media house on Monday.
Mr. Anakwe and the Chief security Officer of the AIT were subsequently dispatched to see Mr. Mbu on Tuesday.
After a long wait for the police officer who was said to be in the presidential villa, both men were asked to report back the following day.
Mr. Anakwe was seized on their second visit.
“I think it has to do with the culture and level of impunity that Mbu has been allowed to exhibit right from his days as police commissioner in Rivers state to today,” Imoni Mac-Amarere, Executive Director, News and Current Affairs at AIT, said.
Spokesperson of the Zone 7 police command, which Mr. Mbu now heads, could not be reached for comments.
But the overall spokesperson for the Nigeria Police, Emmanuel Ojukwu, told PREMIUM TIMES the issue has been “resolved”.
When asked if it is right for journalists to be arbitrarily detained by the police, he said: “I am saying we have resolved the issues. That’s all!”
Mr. Mbu, recently promoted to the rank of Assistant Inspector General, was a former commissioner of police in the Niger Delta state of Rivers.
He was pulled out of Rivers to head the Abuja police command – shorty before his promotion – after he had protracted face-off with that state’s governor who accused him of siding with the presidency and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party to undermine him.
Both Mr. Mbu and the Rivers governor, Rotimi Amaechi, recently tore at each other publicly with the later accusing the the police officer of unpatriotic allegiance to the wife of the president, Patience Jonathan. That comment was in reaction to Mr. Mbu’s who described himself as a lion who tamed the governor, a leopard.
“I cannot understand why an individual like Mbu is allowed to remain in the police to continue to tarnish the image of the force and its officers. It’s unbelievable!” Mr. Amarere told PREMIUM TIMES when asked of the implications of Mr. Mbu’s detention of his colleague.
