My best time of the week, you guessed right. It is MY SUNDAY SERIES.
Happy New Year and I am glad you made it to 2015, this year we should strive to know Jesus Christ more. Now you claim to be born again, but there are 7 deadly sins people parade around themselves with everyday but don't know it, its very important to talk about these silent deadly sins. PRIDE, ENVY,GLUTTONY,LUST,WRATH,SLOTH, GREED.

1. PRIDE: According to the Merriam Webster dictionary 'a feeling that you respect yourself and deserve to be respected by other people'. Many Christians have self-pride that they are born again,they are baptized, they go to church regularly,bla,bla,bla. Being holy is good but its not something one should boast of.(Ephesians 2:8-9) Pride is one of the main traits of satan, this we should not emulate. Having one of the traits of the devil will not let us see the kingdom of God.Remember the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector?(Luke 18:9-14). As Chritstians, we should embrace the opposite of pride which is HUMILITY. A trait which Jesus Christ showed at his birth and death.
2.ENVY: This is a state of being jealous of your next neighbour for having what you don't have. I remember of a story sometime last year or the year before. A pastor killed his fellow pastor because he felt his ministry was progressing more than his. Surprised that I mentioned pastor? Men of God are humans like you and I, so are prone to mistakes like every other. Envy is a deadly sin, that leads to other vices like stealing,murder,gossip and false witness.Galatians 5:26 says we should not be self-conceited and envy one another. Remember Naboth's vineyard in the book of 1st Kings? Naboth was a powerful king that had many possesions and a beautiful wife Jezebel, but he was interested in Naboth's vineyard but Naboth turned him down, hence he was overcome with envy and from the evil counsel of his wife, innocent Naboth was murdered. As Christians we should be happy for our neighbour and be content with what we have.(Hebrews 13:5) Let's embrace Kindness.

3. GLUTTONY: As they say, too much of everything is not good. According to the freedictionary.com , gluttony is defined as 'A person who eats or consumes immoderate amounts of food and drink' .This person eats till his belly bursts or till he chokes. Gluttony is usually the sibling of greed, the ability of not being satisfied. Remember in the book of Genesis, Esau sold his birthright for a pot of porridge. Food is one of the cravings of the flesh, and once we obey our flesh instead of our spirit, the danger is condemnation. One of the first temptations of Jesus was food, and his reply was. 'Man does not live by bread alone but by every word of God.'(Matthew 4:1) .Some Christians eat excessively and indirectly make it their idol.(1st Corinthians 10:7)Some Christians take pride in not smoking and drinking but grub heavily,this is still wrong. Remember the rich man and Lazarus in the book of Luke? The rich man lived in excess, while Lazarus was always hoping to eat the remnants of his excesses. At the end,one went to experience torment forever while the other one enjoyed heavenly bliss.As Christians we should embrace TEMPERANCE or self-restraint.
4. LUST: Matthew 5:28 says ' 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.' Most of the time, every sin commited starts from the heart. Lust is not just sensual and passionate desire of the same(disgusting) or opposite sex. Most time, people lust after worldly desires. Take a look at Ahab lusting after Naboth's vineyard, Esau lusting after Jacob's porridge. Most christians lust after wealth, that's why some jump from church to church, to know where the miracle at? David lusted after Bathsheba(2 Sam 11) which led to adultery, then murder. Galatians 5:16 says we should walk by the spirit in order not to gratify the desires of the flesh. As Christians we should embrace CHASTITY. Remember Leviticus 19 says be holy because I the LORD am holy.
5. WRATH(Anger): We all get angry,but it becomes a problem when we let our anger carry on to the next day.(Ephesians 4:26). As christians, we should learn to control our anger or we will regret our actions later on. For in James 1:20, it says the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. Anger is a tool satan can capitalize on, remember the tribulations of Job, Job's wife told him to 'curse God and die'. It is also said in the scriptures, that our God is slow to anger and rich in mercy. We should be thankful to God everyday for him being slow to anger and rich in mercy, for if he is quick to anger, no one will be saved.
6: SLOTH(Laziness): Like they say, the idle mind is satan's workshop, not only workshop,it is also his lab,manufacting plant, factory. Out of Laziness, some christians take a nap. Proverbs 12:24 says the hand of the diligent will rule , but the slothful will be forced to labour. And ofcourse you know the saying, those who don't work should not eat.(2nd Thessalonians 3:10). Most lazy people, they want the best in life but don't want to work.(Proverbs 13:4). Remember the lazy servant that was given one talent? (Matthew 25:26). As Christians we should be DILIGENT in whatever we do.2nd Corinthians 8:7 says whatever is worth doing, is worth doing well. And remember Philipians 4:13, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

7:GREED: According to the dictionary, it is the insatiable desire to want more and more. Greed only takes care of your wants but doesn't reflect on your needs. Now many Christians crave wealth in the name of 'prosperity' at the expense of salvation but James 4:3 points out that our prayers are not answered because we want to satisfy our own desires. We all want to be seen in flashy cars, massive cribs, and all world pleasures. In the temptation of Jesus in Matthew 4, Jesus replied Satan, worship God and worship him alone. Mark 8:36 says what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world lose his only soul. As Christians, we should learn to give, we should embrace CHARITY. For on the day of judgement, we would be asked if we clothed our neighbour when naked, fed him when he was hungry or gave him water when he was thirsty or provide shelter when homeless. Matthew 6:33 says we should seek the kingdom of God before anything and everything shall be added unto you.
My dear brothers and sisters in the LORD, it is important to know the deadly vices and its virtues. For ignorance of these leads to damnation. Happy Sunday guys! Watch out next week for My Sunday Series....

are u a Catholic?

Good morning friends and special welcome to year 2015.

Some of you are fast accepting the rate at which ur smartphone consumes data, thinking "nothing I can do about it". U should be free to use the mobile internet on ur own terms, but U should not allow ur device use ur data for U the way it likes.

To achieve this, U need 2 first know the data thieves. Those I found most culpable in 'eating' data are:

1) When U STREAM VIDEOS, ur Android Smartphone/Tablet won't be merciful on ur data,

2) It seems to be a sort of crime to have soo many apps on ur phone and U don't control their BACKGROUND DATA consumption. U can get there thru Settings => Data Usage and scroll below d graph to reveal the apps, starting with d highest consumer and tap to open whichever U choose to restrict the background data.

3) How about autosync, images and video auto-download in ur mails, WhatsApp (not all images and videos are of value, so disable them by default), Google Chrome (U shd use Opera more cos Chrome really eats data, though it has an option to "compress data), etc?

4) Maybe you also enjoy the feature of using ur smartphone as a modem for other devices. (Cool). But unless really necessary, keep to using d phone.

So, the key is TAKING CONTROL.
Enjoy ur smart device.

I went to read up on the tank and I discovered that it was a tank built in 1971!
A second generation russian battle tank!
If you know about battle tanks you will know that even later(better) russian tanks are inferior to their western counterparts if attacked all crew members die because of the way the ammunitions are stored. They have inferior shooting range. Infact russia's 2012 battle tank was seriously labelled subpar to its western counterpart talking less of a second generation 1971 T72 battle tank.

Can you see what I've been telling you Nigerians. You guys are illiterates(minus me). They bring one yeye tank and call it computerized you all are dancing. Have you seen the computers of 1971? Nokia moritana is faster than them!

mumu y can u b happy with good tings.
1 if u have a car is it not tokubo
2wen was d Israeli British German and American tank still in use built.
3pls don't compare d speed of a tank of 1971 and a computer togeda

That picture if from the Ukraine-Russia conflict.

The story makes very little sense to be honest.


Why would Ukraine sell 77 tanks to Nigeria when they barely have enough to fight in the Donbas? They are almost out of well equipped tanks to use themselves.

There is nothing like Anti-IED tank. The only reason an IED wont blow up a tank is if explosive is not big enough to penetrate the armor of the tank. all BH needs to do is build bigger IEDs.

Fake story!

Missy
1dey don't use it anymore n most are in storage close to 1400
2if u have heard of someone with username Siriusback he is a serving office in NE.he also confirmed it only dat due to d embargo of military pix on blogs he would have posted it.
3 Sista a VBIED can't hurt or maybe seriously damage a tank unless it's a buried IED

*scoff*,what chief of staff?,you mean tunde idiagbon?....yeah,idiagbon did his own fair share,but under who?,wasnt it under buhari's government?,was it idaigbon than initiated WAI?,was it idiagbon that refused to devalue naira?,did idiagbon fight chad?,did he construct railways?,did he sanction corruption?

bros gmb is jst a sitting duck.buhari cann't preform. My broda BH would hav ended if d north wer sensible but dey aint.and beware dat if GMb win by mistake,d ND militants may start der own uprising u may ask chibuike rotimi wot he saw in his forst term wen d militants wer still mobilise

EVarn:
@henry,i sense that your apparent dislike for mohammadu buhari stems from the fact that:
*he is a muslim
*he is a northener
*he plotted a necessary coup to oust shagari's dubious regime and corrupt first republic
why else would you oppose the man so much?.have you forgotten that during his regime,when chad annexed some of nigeria's territorial islands in lake chad,buhari mobilized battalions of nigerian soldiers,blockaded southern chad,siezed the western region of lake chad{and all its surrounding territories} and chased the chadians deep into ndajema?.wasnt it buhari who jailed over 300 corrupt 'democratic' politicians?,wasnt it buhari who kept the economy afloat at $10/barrel,and used counter trade policies to barter oil bunkering?,wasnt it buhari who built and commissioned the 4 oil refineries nigeria has today?,one naira was equal to a dollar,before babangida came into power to foolishly devalue the naira.you call buhari a selfish religious bigot,but right now buhari is the man nigeria needs

no it was hid cheif of staff
