mazaje: This man is very dangerous. . . . . .This man stands confidently, trying to sell people pieces of land inside the Atlantic ocean. . .

Joagbaje: If you make boast of chewing drugs as means of cure. You needed to see Gods perspective on it, even from Old Testament. Those who serve God ought to go to God for cure.

Joagbaje: Matthew 10:1
​ And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

James 1:13
Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.

Really?? I thought you're intelligent? Videos? Hmm. I met one CEC media staff at a conference once and the way she spoke so glowingly of your media arm, I doubt there's any photo and film trick Hollywood invents that you won't be able to mimic. My friend, leave all those una videos. This is the last place you should bring such as 'proof' for anything except your dexterity at altering reality.

He doesn't need validation and yet he opens countless threads to tell NL he heals? Your man is dangerously narcissistic. He needs public acclaim like air. You should help him instead of encouraging him on.

As for quarell, whenever I remember you also played football at St Murumba field, even if I dey vex, I go just chill. So we won't quarell. I've pointed out what I wanted with the tithe reference and I trust you hot the message.

Candour: @the bolded, I thought its not about Jo? I thought its all about Christ? So its Jo that heals his 'victims' after all, not Jesus. Do you heal too? I don't heal. Jesus does and I've not come here to regal you with such finely scripted stories of 'non existent healings' like the one that is the trademark of you lot.

Of course you guys are alternate jesuses who need your exploits documented in case there'll be need in future for another bible. However, ensure you document your failures too o, so we can have a complete picture.

Candour: @the bolded. Just had to point out your hypocrisy to you.

Glorify God you said?? I glorify God for this survivor. What i wont do is glorify your hero. There's nothing about glorifying God in your mind and that of Jo on this thread. It was opened strictly to validate a glory seeking self professed 'miracle worker' who is so obsessed with getting validated by NL and his very first post showed it for the world to see.

Stop attaching Jo to Dennis. Thank God we heard the man's story in the media otherwise una for don claim am again as another of your exploits.

Candour: Only 4HIV cases Paul healed an entire city.

If you're not seeking valivation, what is the aim of this thread? What will you do next? Create a human being?

The name Jesus means more than physical healing. I assumed you should know that by now but then....

shdemidemi: It was publicly shared on nairaland front page that a Muslim girl mysteriously survived Ebola, she praised her God according to her faith for surviving her near death ordeal.

How can we possibly limit the treatment of Ebola to Jesus when Muslims, pagans and Christians alike survived the disease. The misinterpretation and misapplication of Mark 16 can make a witch doctor suddenly become a general overseer, it's that bad.

The man survived the disease, praise God. His experience should remain personal to him, taking holy communion or praying isn't a standard and shouldn't be adopted as a remedy for curing Ebola.

Our body was made by God to respond perfectly to medicine, we must find a way of charging our government to invest more on researches and solutions for the disease and other lethal health issues that leaves us susceptible to sham miracle workers.

EvilBrain1: What kid of useless thread is this? The guy had a false positive result, what's miraculous about that?

You people insist promoting this superstitious nonsense even though its endangering everybody's lives. You'll keep on spreading this "Jesus magic can cure Ebola" lie until somebody with the virus comes to your church and turns the outbreak into a full-blown epidemic.

The real disease plaguing humanity is not Ebola, its stupíd religious people. You guys won't be happy until you've killed everybody.

musKeeto: I made an allegation years back that Jo and Mabell are either one and the same or Mabell is his PA or secretary. I still stand by it.

If they were both dogs, Mabell would have licked the color off his ass.

Joagbaje: Titus 1:15
Unto the pure all things are pure. . .

Purify your mind sir. I only shared a testimony how the dreaded e-bola was cured through prayer. Many began to doubt And I said from my discovery . Jesus is the cure . Now confirmations are coming from different Quaters .jesus name is cure. So why are you unjustly attacking me . Did I use my name to pray for the man? I only use the name of Jesus.

Candour: But when it comes to tithes, only a priest or pastor MUST collect it ba? otherwise its not acceptable to God abi??

You try my friend

mabell: On how his status changed from postive to negative, Dennis said

"I was reading a book on healing and taking of the Holy Communion. So I learnt to take Holy Communion morning, afternoon and night. I also engaged myself in feet-washing every day before going to bed. The Almighty God saved me; the Holy Spirit healed me. It wasn’t as though l didn’t fall sick as l had direct contact with Justina but the Almighty God healed me. When I was discharged, I got to my house on Saturday evening and spent two hours the next day, Sunday, thanking God on my own. I didn’t go to church or anywhere because of the already established stigma but today I can confidently attend church activities because I guess they all know I’m free now. I know my faith and belief healed me. God also worked for me apart from the fact that my immune system is also working. I believe I got healed also because friends prayed for me" he said.

rationalmind: If they're getting divorced for reasons put forward by Anita, then yes, it's a thing of Joy.

DrummaBoy: Gombs, Joagbaje, kenny4life, and others. Please help shed some light on the OP question.

Actually youre right. Jesus didnt insult him, he only called him a thief, a robber, a destroyer and the father of lies which are exactly what he was. Would I be wrong if I emulate Jesus in that manner?

I mean if my pastor becomes like the devil and becomes a thief, a robber, a destroyer and a liar, would I be wrong if I emulate Jesus's description of the devil and call him that?

Did you know rev King never brooked opposition or dissent to the extent that he flogs his members with cane sometimes? Don't you think a platform like NL could have opened people's eyes to it faster?

Now that he has been caught and jailed, what difference would it have made to Christ if he had been exposed earlier? (Even Ann could have been saved thereby)

People like Rev Jim Jones were still being manufactured in the furnace of hell. Jesus and the apostles didn't experience them physically. If he did, he would have sanctioned every legal method to stop them before they destroy souls.

I'm the one talking to you, pks leave Kunle out.

A lone voice might not do much but it takes just a spark to set a bush on fire. It irks me personally that I have to speak out sometimes but there's nothing in the bible that stops a Christian from speaking out against spiritual tyrants and frauds.

Martin Luther who was used by God to make me and you have access to the bible today did worse to the RCC leadership. I think we should learn to temper it but looking away isn't the right thing to do

You're right we need to pray more but that will be for those who are sincerely mistaken. Some are devils who have been sent to get plenty candidates to hell.

May God lead us aright.

Cheers

Candour: You've spoken well bro. However I wish to know

1. Can we accuse, abuse and insult Satan today? If no, are we sinning when we sing songs like "Satan don fall for gutter o, march am march am"?

What about our pastors who always insult, disparage and abuse Satan anytime they wish to demonstrate to us how really small, insignificant, stu.pid, for.lish, criminal, crooked and plainly slowpoke.ic Satan really is? Are they threading on dangerous ground?

2. Is my pastor still covered by this immunity when he's a replica of Rev King, Rev Jim Jones, pastors at the movement for restoration of the ten commandments (uganda) or Rev Moon (south Korea)?

I'm not happy sometimes to tell it as it is concerning pastors but how would I feel if I could have warned Ann (the girl Rev King killed) and the world about him but chose to keep quiet?

How would I feel if I could have warned the 900+ should that perished at Guyana due to Rev Jim Jones paranoia simply because I don't want to insult dignities?

How would I feel if I could have stopped the pastors at Movement for the restoration of the ten commandments before they bombed and shot almost a 1000 church members to death, yet I didn't because I don't want to bring ridicule to the name of God?

I wish the atrocities in the name of Christ will just go away, but Gombs, in all honesty how do you think Christians can prevent the next demon from climbing a pulpit?

musKeeto: Isn't Christianity paganism too?

3 gods.

mployer: The apostle of Grace also talked about speaking the TRUTH IN LOVE. Love is tolerant, patient and longsuffering. These are no virtues you find in the midst of vehement argument.

If a particular brethren is not understanding a particular aspect of grace, leave that and teach the one he understands pending when his understanding is opened in that area.

I've always loved damilarelr posts simply for SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE, though he is not too regular here.

Tanx anyway for the grace convection, it was a huge success

DrummaBoy: Gombs, my boy, you always get me to laugh sha...

I only saw Jo thread this evening. I have seen the story around, I didn't need the info so didn't open the thread. Congrats on making front page.

As for the atheists, etc, you vilify, can you remember that scripture that says they will enter heaven before your self righteous lot? The very words of Jesus.

1 Cor 5:

1 Corinthians 5:9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: 5:10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

What do you think Paul was saying here:

There is a certain kind of "believer" that is more dangerous than "ordinary" sinners. These are "Christians" who have no qualms fornictating, lying, cheating, defrauding sometimes in the name of the Lord, etc. Paul would rather we company with such than those so called believers.

The problem is not siding with Atheists, my friend, the problem is so called believers behaving worse than atheist!

As to the subject of grace and law, sure you can bring up any other topic and ignore mine, if you wish. I have no trouble with it. There is freedom.

DrummaBoy: Nice one OP.

But just wait long enough here and you would find modern day Nigerian Jews who will tell you:

"God did not abolish all the laws... he cancelled some and left a few others... especially that one in Malachi 3..."

"Grace came to help us fulfill the laws of Moses"

"Christ didn't come to abolish Moses Laws..." forgetting he fulfilled them.

The Jesusislord85, Alwaystrue, Image123, Gombs, Joagbaje, etc, of nairaland. I hope they find their monickers in the mentions and come here and defend their doctrines. If there is anything to defend sef...

The American doctor, Kent Brantly, who contracted Ebola Virus Disease in Liberia has attributed his recovery from the deadly virus to God and not to the experimental Zmapp drug used in treating him.After being discharged from the Emory University Hospital in the United States of America, Dr. Brantly made his first public statement since contracting Ebola in Liberia almost a month ago, thanking God for his survival.

In a video posted online on Friday, he began by sharing how he and his family came to be in Liberia as medical missionaries who moved to West Africa because “God called us to serve the people of Liberia.”According to him, on July 23, his life took an “unexpected turn” when he contracted the deadly virus.“Today is a miraculous day. I am thrilled to be alive, to be well and to be reunited with my family.

As I lay in bed in Liberia for the following nine days, getting sicker and weaker each day, I prayed that God would help me be faithful, even in my illness,” he said.“And I prayed that in my life or in my death that he would be glorified. I did not know then, but have learned since, that there were thousands, maybe even millions of people around the world praying for me throughout that week and even till today.“I cannot thank you enough for your prayers and your support, but what I can tell you is that I serve a faithful God who answers prayers.

”While Brantly thanked the medical staff in the isolation unit at Emory hospital, he believed his survival was a “direct answer to thousands and thousands of prayers”.In an earlier statement from his isolation room, the doctor thanked “God for His mercy” and noted “God often leads us to unexpected places.” According to Brantly, “God saved my life”.More than 1,300 people have been killed by the virus in West Africa alone, and the number is growing at a considerable rate.

More than 2,473 people have contracted the disease, more than the previous 24 Ebola outbreaks combined, according to the World Health Organisation.It has a mortality rate of 90 per cent, and has been declared a global health emergency.A team of five infectious disease experts and 21 nurses worked around the clock to provide care for Brantly, and while he took a moment to hug each at the end of the briefing, he credited God for being an important part of his recovery.“Above all, I am forever thankful to God for sparing my life,” he said.“Please continue to pray for Liberia and the people of West Africa.

”Also, the President, Samaritan’s Purse,a religious charity organisation, Franklin Graham, ascribed the doctor’s faith in God for his speedy recovery.“Today I join all of our Samaritan’s Purse team around the world in giving thanks to God as we celebrate Dr. Kent Brantly’s recovery from Ebola and release from the hospital. His faithfulness to God and compassion for the people of Africa have been an example to us all,” he stated.

Brantly and American nurse who also contracted EVD Nancy Writebol, were given one of only five courses available of the experimental drug.The pair split the dose before being moved to the US from Liberia.
