Health / Re: Mike Pence Didn't Wear Face-Mask During Visit To Clinic by FirePower1(m): 3:56pm On May 01, 2020
Have you ever seen Trump or Putin with a face mask? The men are representing their nations, a covering on their faces is like a covering on their nation and it will be a thing of shame. With face mask, your identity is covered. The world might sooner get to the stage of mandating another type of identification other than your face but till then there will be a lot to talk about.

You are still blind after all I wrote!!

You can't stop the Bible prophecy.

Mark of the beast is not coming in form of physical marking, it would be spiritual marking, it is paying allegiance to the devil, worshipping him.

Don't know why most of your pastors are so ignorant of these. Or may be they are deliberately manipulating you folks with fear because they stored their treasure on earth rather than on earth.

Jesus prayed that the cup should pass over him, nonetheless the will if God be done, was he trying to prevent prophesies? He even encouraged us to pray that our flight be not in winter or the Sabbath.
No one can prevent prophesies from coming to pass but you can choose which side of the prophesy you belong by being well informed and acting accordingly.
By the way, when I see people who get into being abusive easily, I doubt that they have yielded themselves to the Holy Spirit.

Neh 6:8-9 Then I replied to him, “There is nothing to these rumors you are spreading; you are inventing them in your own mind..


Radiation from ignorance is more dangerous than cancer.

6G is the future.
5G is the present.

I rather listen to qualified Professors working for World Health Organization and International body in charge of Non-ionizing radiation than listen to a theologian.

If I want to know the owner of the rooster that crew when Peter denied Jesus, then I would ask a theologian.



You are using 4G to send a conspiracy theory that 5G is from Antichrist.
1G, 2G, 3G, 4G, you invented none.
Invent yours, let's see.

Large followership should never be used as a criteria to say something is from God. Because "Many will follow" 2 Peter 2:2


If I tell you that the earth doesn't rotate nor revolve around the sun, would you classify it as a revelation?

It is a false statement that was popular back then till scientific proofs debunked it. Scientists like Galileo who was a Christian confirmed Copernicus' model of a heliocentric Solar System. His experimentational and mathematical approach to physics was revolutionary and ahead of his time.

5G conspiracy theories didn't start this year. Why are some people recycling same conspiracy theories in the form of REVELATION in 2020?

False teachers on the loose.

Christians who refuse to read their bibles will remain victims of manipulation by their pastors.
"Touch not my anointed" remains the favorite tools of the manipulators and their slaves.


If the Bible prophesied that Antichrist would come. Why do you think praying against or protesting against Antichrist would work? Are you trying to stop God's prophecy from being fulfilled?
Ignorant Christians with fear written all over them .

Jesus Christ doesn't need your help to fight the Antichrist


Corona is leading to the necessity of taking a vaccine with which you have to receive an implant (A micro chip which is a code that even you don't understand which probably might include the mark of the beast that requires 5G to function) with a promise of a better life. The is not like every other (1G, 2G, 3G & 4G) and the world has never experience it before, so it is not a minor matter.
The present "Church" has fallen in love with technology and money (easy life) like Adam fell in love with Eve. The Bible has informed us about the mark of the beast and this current situation is looking more like it if it is not it. Technology and money are now presenting an implant to us as Eve presented the obviously forbidden fruit, with a promise of a better life, are we going to fall like Adam? We are back to the beginning. Even now, there are many antichrists and people whose fate have been ceiled by selling their soul to the devil for a more comfortable life which is more or less as receiving his mark.

Every nation battling with COVID 19 is like a man who is unavoidably going to face a bullet. Ever wonder why bullet proof is for the chest? The heart is more important and more delicate than the stomach. The choice before us is either to suffer hunger for a while and live or die with a fill stomach. I think the Government already made the right choice why the sudden reversal? I hope this is not done to save the money for food distribution by the Government? Dear Heavenly Father, please don't let this decision lead to an uncontrollable spread of the virus in Jesus name.

Some of you have been completely brainwashed.

What about some of us that live in villages? I wonder with this your logic, how the hell are we still alive? undecided

My point is that sometimes you need to unlearn somethings you learnt as a kid. Not all you hear are actually true. I stay in my village and I've never had any reason to be afraid of anything. Some of the best and most honest people I know are actually in the rural areas.
All the yahoo boys, fake pastors, corrupt politicians, ritualists and the likes don't reside in the villages. Change your mentality..... Visit just once and I bet you visit once every year atleast wink

All villages may not be full of evil people but the yahoo boys, fake pastors, corrupt politicians, ritualists usually have someone backing them up somewhere in a village.

Lies and illusion. If I say my chicken will die on Christmas day and I killed it on Christmas day, have I become a true prophet? These people planned how they want things to happen in the secrete and let this man foretell them to you as a prophet. When the man has gained your trust then they have you soul (You easily live your life as they suggest). The rulers of the darkness of this world have their timetable for executing some projects under their jurisdiction, if they leak it to you then you can become an original false prophet too. It is ultimately about your souls not any of the other things that appear to matter.

Are there not homeless Nigerian citizens in Nigeria? Some have been sleeping under the bridges for more than 21yrs. The man weighed his options and made his choice and he has been living with the consequence of his choice, I wonder why that should be anyone's headache. I thank God for him that his story has changed eventually, because he could also have continued sleeping in the buses till his death. It is a testimony!

Don't be deceived, everyone has a problem. The way we go about solving our problems define us. Even Adam and Eve had a problem of unclothedness but Satan focused their attention on an ungodly solution to their problem. They had momentary respite from their unclothedness until God showed up. Will the way you have been going about to tackle your challenges not make you to hide when God shows up? Repent today and amend your ways, stick to the Word of God and your salvation shall eventually come. Come to think of it, what did you bring to this world? why are you so desperate for what you will not take out of this worlds?
Religion / Re: What Does It Mean To Work Out Your Salvation With Fear & Trembling In The Bible? by FirePower1(m): 2:49pm On Jun 23, 2019
unstoppable51:
From FeedMeJesus.com

Philippians 2:12 is one of the most highly misunderstood verses of the scripture. This wouldn’t have been so if we had never mastered the act of lifting scriptures out of context and making it say what it was never meant to.

In a bid to discredit and prove the Truth of eternal salvation wrong, most people have greatly misconstrued this beautiful verse of the scripture.

(Php 2:12) Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

What was Paul the apostle trying to say here? What does this verse really mean?

First, unlike what is popularly believed out there, this verse isn’t asking you to work for your salvation. It said work it out.

I really need you to understand that to work out your Salvation is not the same as working for it. When people read this verse, they often make the mistake of thinking they are the same. They think the verse is asking you to do something (good things) in order to produce or receive your own salvation.

This is a very wrong notion because as important as our good works are, they count for nothing when it comes to being a criteria for salvation. They cannot merit or provide that wonderful experience for us. That is why Salvation is a gift.

(Eph 2:cool For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

(Eph 2:9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.


As a matter of fact when it comes to Salvation, our good works (self righteousness) are counted before God as used or dirty sanitary rag.

(Isa 64:6) But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

It is that useless when used as a criteria for receiving Salvation. This is why Salvation is a complete gift of God’s grace received only by Faith. Not merits.

The statement “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling” was an apostolic instruction Paul gave to the Philippian church, charging them to live uprightly as those who have received God’s salvation already within their spirits.

He wasn’t asking them to live uprightly in order to receive salvation. That is to work for it. He was asking them to live uprightly because they have been saved already. The next verse to that one throws more light, take a look at it.

(Php 2:12) Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

(Php 2:13) For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.


God works within you so you let the world see it. Let what God has done within you reflect on the outside. In your words and conducts. Since you are saved, live like it.

The instruction is similar to what Jesus said to His disciples after calling them the Lights of the world.

(Mat 5:14) Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

(Mat 5:15) Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

(Mat 5:16) Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.


So as Christians, the whole of Philippians 2 encourages us to live the life of Christ on the earth. Not so as God would pat us on the back and offer us His salvation as a reward for our good living. It is simply because we have already received that Salvation as a gift, empowering us us to live righteously in this crooked world.

It is like the popular song, “Let the world see Jesus in your eyes….” How can they see Jesus in your eyes or life if you don’t already have Him living within you? How can you work out your salvation if you don’t already have that salvation given to you?

You have received the workings of God within you (Salvation) so you let it reflect in your lifestyle (work it out). That is what Philippians 2:12 is saying, not the other way round.

I hope this blesses you.

Glory to God, our Saviour and King!

The difference is between "works" and "good works" as used in the scriptures. Works are solely the product of human power, intellect and understanding and they count for nothing before God as you have mentioned but check the scriptures, good works are encouraged as they are the products of the leading of the Holy Spirit.

1 Timothy 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
1 Timothy 1:6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
1 Timothy 1:7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
1 Timothy 1:8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;

The law is good if a man use it lawfully (lovefully), not allowing yourself to be enslaved by others through it and not enthroning yourself above others by it. Under the law, we are all equal before God, the law says do unto others as you would have them do unto you. But under grace, we are encouraged to love others the way Jesus loved us by dying for us.

Romans 12:10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
Religion / Re: What Is Grace? by FirePower1(m): 4:39pm On Jun 02, 2019
Grace is the Word of God spoken to man that makes him different from animals and rule other creatures. Grace is God's love to mankind expressed in His Word. Grace is like lecture, when we take Him seriously, He is sufficient for us to pass all life examinations. Man never deserved his position in creation, he enjoys that privilege purely because that is the plan of God. David expressed this very well when after meditation he exclaimed "what is man the thou hath mindful of him?". Now, Grace is a He. He is the mind of God, He is the desire of God revealed to man, He is the manual for human lives, He is the Bible and He is Jesus Christ, in Him is Life and the Life is the Light of men. He was spoken to Adam (mankind) in the beginning but the devil was able to make Adam disregard Him. God decides to give us the second and better chance so the Word became flesh (like us) and dwell amongst us (accessible to us). Grace (The Word of God) is all we need in life, every other need is domicile in Him. Grace has two major parts, they are; blessing part (thou may freely eat of the fruit of the garden) and sanctification part (but of the tree that is in the middle if the garden, thou shall not eat). One part is invalid without the other part. Many of us only want God to bless us but we don't want to be under Him, but Grace is not for selfishness, it is for godliness (another word for self denial). Those who are lured, deceived or threatened into turning their backs on Grace automatically are faced with disgrace and shame sometimes without knowing it until God shows up at the dawn of the new day and all the counsel of the devil that seems to be covering their unclothedness are found to be inadequate. Please have active faith in the Grace of God and enjoy everlasting life. God bless you.

Please study your Bible, there is a difference between works (which implies the deeds motivated and approved by self) and good works (which implies the righteous deeds motivated and approved The Spirit Of God).
Good works are approved by God.
