I'd work on that thank you

There’s A Purpose For Your Life · Thursday, October 30th

Pastor Chris

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10).

God has a purpose for your life; He has a purpose for everything that He does. In John 10:10, Jesus said, "...I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." 1 John 3:8 says, "…For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil." Then in Luke 19:10, He said, "...The son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost." His purpose was very clear: He came to do the will of the Father. Like Him, you were born for a purpose; you came to do the will of your heavenly Father.

In Acts 26, we read about Saul of Tarsus, who on his way to Damascus had an encounter with the Lord. The Lord called him by name and said, "…I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness…" (Acts 26:16). God doesn’t do anything without a purpose. The reason He appeared to Saul, who later became Paul, was to make him a minister and a witness, so that he (Paul) would take the Gospel to the Gentiles (Acts 26:18).

Have you discovered your purpose? Do you know why you were born? If you haven’t found out, you can do that today! Be bold to ask the Lord; He’ll tell you. He could also speak to you expressly as He did to the Apostle Paul. He also guides you to that purpose as you walk with Him, and do the things He’s called you to do.

You weren’t born for nothing. You were born for the glory of God. You were born to walk with Him and bring Him honour. He planned from the beginning that you’d serve Him and live unto Christ. Let that purpose become established in your heart today. Take a hold of that revelation: the divine vision to bring Him glory; and you’ll experience tremendous growth and success in your life, and in all that you do.

Prayer...
Dear Father, your purpose for my life is established in my heart. I was born to bring you glory and honour. I live to fulfil my destiny in Christ, taking a hold of the divine vision and revelation to bring you glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 9  Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began

acts 26:16-18
But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;

 17  Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,

 18  To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

trustman:
Remember this by Hagin?:
"There are a number of teachings and practices in the Church today, particularly among Charismatic groups, that can lead to misunderstandings and hurtful problems. Many times, these errors are the result of people taking a Bible verse, or part of a verse, out of context or by carrying an application too far. Sometimes there has been an overzealous attempt to make a New Testament application of some Old Testament phrase or technicality that absolutely does not apply. Taken to the extreme, these teachings can become abuses and false practices."

Ask yourself (i.e. application of that statement - not just getting 'thrilled' or 'excited' or any of those words you like to use) this question:
"Am I guilty of any of these things?"

That is what Hagin wanted from his clan - introspection and a willingness to 'repent'.
If you didn't get that message then the book has been of no value to you, cynic Gombs.

Your opinion is duly noted! Thanks for the compliment! Now, run back to the sewers of NL and regroup, next chapter is coming up, and if you don’t like the thresd anymore, please do the needful.

Warm Regards,
Gombs Esq

2 Corinthians 4:2 
"But we have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways. We refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God's word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to everyone's conscience in the sight of God."

You WoF guys are those who haven't "renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways".
You "practice cunning". 
You "tamper with God's word". 
You DO NOT have "The Truth" in you. 
You need to have your minds COMPLETELY OVERHAULED. 

Eyaaa

BabaGnoni:
You're inadvertently quoting scriptures for exactly what the topic of the thread was tackling and the craftiness employed by your friends that you're blind to.

trustman:
I'm beginning to think that you guys may be possessed by the "Spirit of Python Anaconda".
Your actions are gradually exposing your inside.
My assessment of you guys is being confirmed.
We'll soon know who's what.

Fixed
[NLT] Proverbs 14:5 An honest witness does not lie; a false witness breathes lies.

BabaGnoni:
^^^
Honest with something that had nothing to do with the thread?
OK, keep up with the puerile displays then

So because it is not related to the thread, we should ignore it shey?
[KJV] 2 Corinthians 4:2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.


Honesty precede everything! Paul knew as much!

Why should I discuss with dishonest folks? Solomon knew better too

[NLT] Proverbs 2:7 He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest. He is a shield to those who walk with integrity.

BabaGnoni:
You don't learn. SMH.

Learn what exactly? folks refusing to be honest or some folks would rather go to hell than snitch?

Hello all!
Sorry for the bit delay, my boss lost her mother-in-law. That made me super busier... but we shall continue with the book today. I think the topic is "Should preachers be rich"

Stay tuned

Image123:
You should have helped clear the air on Gnoni's case earlier. Your silence was a loud embarrassment to the Christian community.

OLAADEGBU:
If you cannot fathom that a man is essentially a tripartite being consisting of spirit, soul and body then the joke is on you.

this is also an error i tend to correct, man is not a tripartite being! Yes he is a spirit, that has a soul and body. Tripartite means

1.
shared by or involving three parties.
"a tripartite coalition government"
2.
consisting of three parts.
"a tripartite classification"

Man is a spirit, HE HAS a soul and a body. NOT Man CONSISTS of 3 parts, Spirit soul and body.

i hope you understand?

as for the rest of your post to me, i intend to not argue

Use The Word To Deal With Anger · Wednesday, October 29th

Pastor Chris

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath (Ephesians 4:26).

One of the beauties of God’s Word is its practicability. You can practise the Word in any area of your life, and it’ll produce lasting results. For example, our opening verse that we just read: this should be something you practise consciously. Some people are not easy to be entreated when they’re angry; they cast off all restraints and even hold the grudge for a long time. Don’t be that way; use the Word to deal with anger.

Not allowing the sun to go down upon your wrath means if you’re angry about something, you deal with it right away, that same day. Never find yourself still angry about the same thing for a protracted period. The Bible says anger dwells in the bosom of fools (Ecclesiastes 7:9) and you’re not a fool.

Unrestrained anger is a satanic manipulation you must not give room for in your life. People who pander to such anger give opportunity for the demon of anger to take a hold of their minds. In walking with the Lord, one of the things He seeks to accomplish is to have His love fully expressed through you, such that you’re meek, kind and not easily provoked. Nobody with a bad temper ever succeeds permanently in life.

Remember Moses, God testified of him to be the meekest man on the face of the earth (Numbers 12:3). Nevertheless, when Moses yielded to anger, it cost him his ministry.

God had told him to speak to the rock to bring out water for the children of Israel (Numbers 20:, but because he was angry at the stubbornness of the Israelites, Moses struck the rock twice. Water still came out, however, but God wasn’t pleased (Numbers 20:11). He then said to Moses, "For this reason you will not take the children of Israel into the Promised Land" (Numbers 20:12). Moses was "fired" because of his anger.

Offences will come, according to the Bible; people will do things that may hurt or offend you, but never allow anger provoke and make you react in a way that you’ll regret. Stay in the Word and walk in love.

Confession...
The wisdom of God guides me to talk and live right always; manifesting the righteousness of Christ! I have a meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price. I’m patient, compassionate and kind; and I demonstrate the love of God to my world today. Amen.

Further Study:
Luke 5:5; And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

acts 20:32; And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

Proverbs 19:11 The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression

nlMediator:
So, you're Jesus now? If you don't know the relevance of what Jesus was doing there, and think you can use it as a general principle, you shouldn't even be in the religion section. Threatened and intimidated by who? You guys are filled with delusion. I simply do my best to avoid you.

Me too o

alright guys, i have to get to work now... meeehn, it's almost noon!

WinsomeX:
I have to be the one to create the thread because non of you accusing the fellow is man enough to do it.

Yeah, go ahead! You are undisputed

trustman:
You a the gullible, you and your WoF devotees. You swallow everything and anything offered to you by your WoF preachers. 

Since this thread has now given liberty to everyone to add whatever let's go ahead then. 

You Gombs, and your WoF crowd who are attempting to draw me into a discussion I should decide whether to be in or not, are dishonest and deceptive like the Serpent. 

Your attempt to force me into what I do not wish to join is not only a failure on your part in an aspect of a basic christian doctrine but a move that is no different from what the Beast will employ during the tribulation. Maybe you share some traits with him then. 

Those who have expressed the most unspiritual stance on this forum are you LEGALISTIC WoF crowd. 

We will continue in this open forum as long as we wish. You modern day PHARISEES have no resources within you to deter us. We will choose what to do or what not to do. We will decide whether to continue or withdraw. 

Vincit Omnia Veritas

Your opinion is duly noted! I understand why you don't want to snitch-Omerta!

Thanks for stopping by!

LambanoPeace:
But when COZA pastor was silent, your band nailed him harder than Christ.
When Pastor Chris did not 'do a press conference', your lot pronounced him guilty.
When Pastor's don't spaek after being accused, he is termed guilty.
#Shameless

When one pastor like that on GOD tv seperated from his wife, you weren't silent o! Can anyone guess what he did?

Weldone, keep forming Jesus o!

Leave these folks jare!

You should know them by now na!

WinsomeX:
And if you are called "kiddo" or a child you begin to cry. What exactly do you think you wrote up there?

Call me whatever you want to, it's your damning business! Not mine!

Now, please make sure as you create your thread tomorrow. Thanks.

WinsomeX:
Bidam will have me apologize for calling his accusations his "inventions". Bidam, I apologize for calling it your invention. However since we do not have the quote where BBG made the alleged statement, I say this that though the accusation cannot be called an invention exactly, it is remains unverifiable and an allegation.

You apologised? Now, that's historic!
Hey! It's not an allegation! Well, we can choose to believe whatt we want.

Now, let me let us into this. I listened to a minister teach about Noah and that son of his that saw his unclothedness. The minister proved from that scripture that his son actually abused him sexually. Now some may believe this or they may choose not to; whichever way it is a theological point that has no relevance to the Christian life. That's the way I see the Eve had sex with serpent doctrine.

Poor attempt in damage control

DrummaBoy, trustman and BabaGnoni have so far on the WoF thread discussed 16 damnable heresies in both doctrine and practices of the Word of Faith. Assuming for a second that BBG actually believes this doctrine of Eve had sex with a Serpent, that will make the scores 16 to 1, heading to 20 to 1. Even the 1 is unfounded, unverifiable, unrelated to the Christian stand in life and hopelessly baseless.

So, it's hockey now? 16 to 1? Hahhahhaahaahhaahahaha

You were counting? You guys should please crawl back to your WoF thread and keep typing away.

It is left to Bidam, Image123, mbaemeka, Gombs, and nlmediator to open a new thread and discuss the matter like responsible people would. An example has been set by the trio I listed above and the three of them have set out to discuss 20 reasons why the WoF doctrine is false. It will be the height of responsibility and sheer laziness if one or some of the five aforementioned WoF symphatizers cannot make out time to discuss a doctrine they feel is worth mentioning all the time, especially when they are under the heat.

I will not discuss with you guys, ever wondered why I avoided that thread? Call it laziness or whatnot, that's your headache.

I do not believe Eve slept with a serpent. If BBG believes it, I would love to hear his views on a separate thread. If he is wrong, its our duty to point it out to him like he does with WoF and I trust that he will repeal the doctrine.

If however any of the noise makers about Eve having sex with a Serpent are not man enough to open a separate thread to discuss it civilly with BBG by the end of today, I will open that thread at 9am tomorrow to begin a Q and A with BBG on the said doctrine. I will moderate the thread and God help any WoF symphatiser come there and spew any rubbish out and you will see me at my best.

Create o, and you guys csn discuss better there, buy pop corn too! You have my word, I will NOT visit the thread. Thank you

Bidam:
Ofcos i understand you don't want to be a SNITCH. If you are afraid of babagnoni say so, so we could cast out the spirit of fear in you.

@Lordreed, thanks for bailing me out.

@gombs no mind these folks jare, i no get their time.

Trustman as usual you have proved the bible right that "woe is he that trust man.

Now all you have to do is tell your ally winsomeX to tender an unreserved apology for calling it "bidam's invention" before i could treat your anomalies you call a question.

Bro, no mind them. See folks trying to side step plain facts. If I had the topic of that thread, I'd have gotten it from Google cache, but now, getting it concisely would be a lot more harder, but possible. It's like looking for a needle in a hay sack, possible but hectic.

Apology ke? You go wait tire . Heheheheheh

trustman:
One attributes you guys have is that of being mischievous.
You are a bunch of crooks hiding under the umbrella of Christianity.

As far as this thread is concerned you, the originator, had a motive for bringing it up. However, when you saw that it was not quite working out like you thought you have resorted to underhand tactics.

Are these the kind of people bred in CEC?

People who don't think right and lack integrity?
Maybe if Seun is looking for those responsible for crashing his site he doesn't have to look far.

Save you thrash for the gullible! Lordreed has cleared the air, but in desperate attempt to keep your ally away from further downward trend into the pit of dishonesty and deception, you refuse to call a spade a spade, but rather you chose to make your rectum jealous of your mouth (or in this case fingers) in spitting crap!

Bunch of hypocrites, you can't call him what he is, but want to stick to the thread now shey? Shey I should stick to the thresd now right? Your band of misfits won't see the picture and Lordreed's post, but want to see the book now shey? If you don't like where the thread is now, better get out! Boy! If I were close to you, I'd have sent you to the ICU in seconds!

Now, we crashed the site shey? That's the most moronic post I've seen all these years! How I wish Seun could get those months back, we'd see who would want to crash the site.

Note: if anyone or group of persons no longer like the thread, they should shut up or hit the unfollow button.

BabaGnoni, you are a nice fellow, but you just joined the band in the sewers or Nairaland, where lies, dishonesty and deception are at its finest.

BabaGnoni:
You're trying to bite off more than you can chew and still bent on dragging this thing on the leg
Stick to your thread or one would say you have an hearing impairment to what LordReed said, saying he fails to see how the serpent and Eve issue ties into this thread's subject matter

you did not see this line, right?

I will say that BabaGnoni did indeed state that the serpent and Eve had sex.

it's ok, i can safely conclude you are guilty as charged.

BabaGnoni:
I dont know what his fascination or obsession with serpents is all about
It got tied into this thread's subject matter because Bidam always drags it in to all threads he can't handle the heat in
notice the subtle injection in the above, saying good morn and then Mr Serpent etc.
- using underhand and gutter tactics to get an upper hand. SMH
- Always doing this as a last restort to subdue or silence one off a thread

Lordreed just indicted you! The picture I put up is pointing fingers at you. Wind is blowing bro, and you know what happens to the fowl... did you or did you not make the eve and snake faux pas?

Hello all, I was doing some digging, to get the old WoF thread back, and guess what I stumbled on!

BabaGnoni, did you at anytime imply the Eve and Snake thing? A straight answer would determine if I should pull out the thread from hectic processes I don't want to go into!

Bidam has a point!

... I am one of them, sisterme who is a branhamite disciple made that thread. Trustman who is silent now is one of them, Lordreed can also testify..

Mba sid the thread was washed away by the tsunami! And he's right, The thread was around April this year! I am beginning to think someone is obviously lying

BabaGnoni, for integrity sake, did you imply such?

WinsomeX:
@BabaGnoni,

I think you should understand why the leading WoFist on this forum will want to attack, discredit and twist your words. You are the leading exposer of Word of Faith on this forum. These are the hazards that come with the work.

Maybe when next they begin to wine like newborns about Eve and Serpent, simply refer readers to this page where the matter has been dealt with and hopefully laid to rest.

Oh Please! Spare me the baloney!
Now you want to look good about it, right? Leading exposer huh? SMH

BabaGnoni:
You owe me no apology or explanation Gombs.
Why I have become the centre of unwanted attention all of a sudden, I don't know

I didn't bring Eve and serpent on to this thread, neither have I on the WoF thread.

You should have faced and confronted your undisciplined colleagues, ask them why they continually derail and pollute other peoples' threads with their poison

Alright!
Thanks again!


*handshake

WinsomeX:
I asked you to post a link. You did. A post by someone else other than BabsGnoni. We await nannymcphee to confirm if she was truly quoting BBG or simply provided a statement under his name as a resulting of Bidam and mbaemeka's accusations.

I also requested you open a thread which you didn't. You did what soothed you.



You want me to provide the link BBG edited? Are my the one accusing him of editing something? Well, since you cannot provided the already edited link, we must agree that such a link does not exist and you are simply being dishonest.

Your opinion is duly noted!

pickabeau1:
If u insist you havent...i will leave that to you
You did not moderate but got involved actively and just as u highlighted things to people
Im sure u agree some practices which have been put forth as the way have also been denounced
Even Hagin present denounced some acts of Hagins past
Lets have a summary of the key points and debate that

You want me to moderate a thread I created for discussion and stay out of the discussion? Really?

Would type out the summary, I think that's the best option now. Nice thinking bro!

Dear BabaGnoni,

I do not entertain your posts with complete attention, majorly for the colours and short incomplete sentences. Now, I have no malicious intentions with regards you, nor any, but notwithstanding, I believe you are learned.

If you think I care about your snake and eve gist with mba, or any, then you must be grossly wrong. I did not grace that thread. But, if you did not make that post on that thread or any other, then accept my unreserved apology. If you did, it's between you, your conscience and the devil.

I did not bother read any of your posts on this page, for I know what their contents would be. I really wish you and your WoF write ups were far from this thread, but no, you had to. Now, you are crying victim!

I have always avoided your posts for obvious reasons. Have a great day!

Warm Regards,
Gombs

Candour:
well, we can't take that as evidence now or can we? i ignore some statements i find baseless sometimes and i'm sure you do same sometimes too. Let's try to avoid statements that stoke anger unnecessarily.

Yeah... you're on point. Now, this is the fourth time I've said let's move on, but eve, snake, WoF were all preferred at the moment!

pickabeau1:
Gombs has lost focus of this thread
And i mentioned before hand you should played the role of a mediator

I like the chapter 7

Gombs i will like you to prepare a summary of each chapter, the key points as a form of recap

Please make it another thread after you have finished posting the book

Those were part of my plan! I'd bring up a summary fit for front page perhaps. I have not lost focus, its a well in the big picture. A lil break from the book since they went WoF.

WinsomeX:
Candour, I must at this point apologize to you and say that the thread cannot continue until this Eve/Serpent matter is sorted out. Since Gombs and others will not open a thread for it, we will do it here.

Gombs pls respond to my earlier post. Provide the post BBG edited.

I won't! If you don’t want to continue the discussion on the book, please slam the door after you've used it. Thank you

Candour:
Pls pls Gombs, let me correct you before this goes out of hand again. Nowhere on that thread did BabaGnoni make that statement. Mbaemeka was merely cataloguing to nannymcphee what he saw as wrong teachings from BabaGnoni not solely from the WOF thread. he encapsulated all in a post and nannymcphee quoted that particular one she was interested in. She was quoting from mbaemeka's post:she wasn't quoting BabaGnoni since he didn't make that statement there hence nothing to edit there. That accusation predates the WOF thread i think. let's not confuse the issues.

If he made it elsewhere, pls look for it but it surely wasn't on that thread.

abeg let's not scatter this thread again.

Aii bro
But BabaGnoni didn't refute the claim on the thread, rather got nannymcphee in a slap mode! I felt her fury bro
