Acidosis: You guys should stop twisting the whole thing.No mind them...priest don turn pastor....later Chukwudi44 go say catholics dont preach tithing ![]() Wait till Christembassey, Kunle, Goshen et al find this thread....it will get to page 10 with gist that have been treated in past 1000 threads. ?.recycling questions and finally, they will insult u, ur church, the Pastors jets, suits, cars, and all they can fathom...forgetting the Op said PRIEST.. Wait for it |
christemmbassey: well some of us don't know diplomacy, especialy, when it concerns d truth, anybody who says dat tithe is not obligatory n malachi was specificaly written to d jews priests but still turn to say i collect/give tithe bc of revelation, to me dat person is nt only a thief, liar but also hypocrite, bc it is very clear that he iusist on d fraud bc he benefits. Its like knowing dat bribe is wrong but u give/take bc u benefit. I ave read ur posts on other issues n i noticed dat we share d same view on most issues which i told u many times if u can b honest, dat collection of tithe is d only gulf btween u n i. So u are my real bros, dats y i must pursue u until u drop this bigest fraud in human history. As for derailling this thread, don't worry, God will make a way for his ppl.Stay on topic...stop derailing....let's talk about the Churches in Yobe, and how u propose we ameliorate their hardship and rebuild em burnt up churches. Happy sunday |
italo: Some people HATE Catholicism so much that they always look for bad, even in an obviously good deed done by a Catholic or the Catholic Church.I do not hate anything that worship n Praise Jesus....even if they do it wrongly, I have no right whatsoever to hate them, all I do is pray for them... BTW, how was mass today? Happy month of the holy souls...today is dedicated to remember/feast day of St Leo the great. Though he formed the doctrine of incarnation in a letter to the Patriach of Constantinople. Died 461....happy sunday |
Wisdom, And Spiritual Understanding · Sunday, November 10th · Pastor Chris For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding (Colossians 1:9). Imagine walking in fulfilment of this prayer! Your life will be an endless manifestation of the excellence of the Spirit. When you have wisdom and spiritual understanding, beyond knowing the whys and wherefores of anything, you know the power behind it. Every time, in every place, and in every situation, you know exactly what to do. The Prophet Elisha manifested this kind of supernatural understanding and wisdom. Once, he and some other prophets were at Jordan, and one of them, while hewing down a tree, his axe-head pulled off and sank in the river. It was a borrowed axe, so he cried out to Elisha for help (2 Kings 6:5). Elisha cut off a tree branch and tossed it at the spot where the axe-head fell, and instantly, the axe-head floated up. How did Elisha know what to do to bring the axe-head from under the water to the surface? He was filled with the knowledge of God’s will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. The wisdom of God showed him what to do. Something similar happened with Isaac. There was famine in Canaan and he was about to leave for another city when God instructed him to remain in Canaan. The Bible records that in spite of the drought, Isaac dug wells and found water. Meanwhile, everyone else in Canaan dug wells and found no water. In that same year, the Bible says that Isaac "…waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him" (Genesis 26:12-14). How did Isaac know where to dig to find water? Why did he prosper exceedingly in a land where everyone else experienced severe hunger, poverty, and deprivation? It was because God gave him insight as to what to do. If you study about him in the scriptures, you’ll discover he’s one of those in the Old Testament who, we’re told, often took time to meditate: "And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide …" (Genesis 24:63). Meditating on God’s Word causes you to be filled with the knowledge of God’s will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. Prayer Dear Father, I thank you for granting me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation to know you more and more, with my understanding enlightened for the precision and accuracy of the Spirit at all times, in the Name of the Lord Jesus. Amen. f u r t h e r s t u d y: Proverbs 3:13-18 Daily Scripture Reading 1 Year Reading Plan : Hebrews 9:11-28, Jeremiah 17-18 2 Year Reading Plan : John 11:14-23, 1 Chronicles 10 |
Bidam: You are even derailing yourWow..you are not ignorant of his wiles n stratagem. What he posted was a bait to derail the thread into a tithe discussion thread, removing spotlight from his failed attempt to solicit 1k to 'help churches in the north' fulfilling John 12v6. Christembassey stay on topic don't derail. Oya let's talk about the Churches in Yobe, how do you propose we rebuild the burnt up ones? |
ajayikayod: @Bidam and @christemmbassey. Pls i implore u to let ds defamation of personalities and use of strong words cease. Pls stop harming yourselves. Ds wont edify or make no one better but can affect d way d outsider sees d Christians on NL.I concur..but Bidam is being cautious, Christembassey aint...he's still reveling in the anger of why Bidam resurrected d thread ![]() |
chukwudi44: Bros I ask you again don't we have sick people in CE? Does Pastor chris heal and protect all CE members? So every member of christ embassy lives till old age devoid of sickness and other ills of life? Is that the point you are trying to make?Av answered your opening question My point is that u said the Father was a SUPREME sacrifice paid for a cause , that God who could have helped him did not, because he was a sacrifice? My main point is we don't need any Supreme sacrifices by anybody else for eg leprosy cause...Jesus paid it all, and asked us to cast out devils from folks not tending devils in folksStop recycling questions..if you don't have anything new to say, let's leave the thread for viewers to see how you shot urself in the foot ![]() |
chukwudi44: Smh I know understand how dangerous the prosperity gospel can be? If I may ask you why did God allow the apostles to suffer and pass through such horrific deaths? How do you explain that on the light of your prosperity gospel?Why don't you go and be another Supreme sacrifice na? ![]() I told you caring n visiting is NOT same as tending...feed them the Word for the bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word...feed em the word and cast the demons out...why tend for them when you can heal them? Why give em fish while you could make them fishermen? |
free radical: This guy thank God not all xtians reason like you. Utter lack of the cardinal virtue of Charity. SMH ![]() |
chukwudi44: James 1:27 ![]() U r confused sir...visting and caring is not same as tending ....tending is like how nomads tend for their cattle, u see, u said the father was a SUPREME sacrifice paid for a cause , that God who could have helped him did not, because he was a sacrifice? See how silly u sound...imagine Paul....tending lepers!.... and God now allowed him get infected as a SUPREME sacrifice for a cause? What cause? A cause he niched for himself? Did Jesus ask him to tend for them? U show em care, visit them and feed em the gospel, they need the word not tending....because Christ said CAST out em devils not tend em devils |
chukwudi44: Bros this verse cannot justify advertisement of miracles expecially when there are unverified."Go tell your friends".Jesus did not broadcast it.In several instances he told the people he cured not to tell anyone about it.But u lied that Jesus NEVER healed anyone and told them to broadcast it....now u r saying Jesus never broadcasted it....Jesus indirectly broadcasted the miracle....all na broadcasting....and it was solely to stir faith in the heart of those who hear and saw the healed. |
chukwudi44: Yeah he did the same God who could have prevented him from getting infected allowed him to die as a supreme sacrifice for a cause.The same God allowed Peter,Paul and several other apostles to be matyred by the roman authourities even when he had the power to save them.What cause? Tending lepers? The apostles were matyred for the gospel of Christ...not for lepers or such. I ignored your latter sentence because in Christ Embassy, we don't have disease tendering centers by pastors....we cast em devil out as Jesus instructed |
chukwudi44: If you need more I can give you.Go and google Father Damien of Molokai and hios work with the lepers.He spent his time personally tending to the lepers till he got infected !!!Did Jesus say tend to leprosy or heal/cast out leprosy? He even got infected sef...mtcheeeeeeeeeew |
The man that Jesus healed begged to go with Jesus. [size=32pt]But Jesus sent the man away, saying, "Go back home and tell people what God did for you." So the man went all over town telling what Jesus had done for him.— [/size] Luke 8:38-39 ERV Yeah, Jesus said to folks atimes not to tell others of their miracles, go study why Jesus said so...and from the above, go study why he said he should go and tell others....My friend go and study your Bible, stop going up and down wasting time on who did more or less miracles or who drew much crowd or which church did what and what not....why call Chosen church fanatics? chukwudi44: Bros Jesus [b][size=64pt]never[/size] healed anyone and asked them to broadcast it. [/b] on the contrary he even restrained some from spreading the news.The apostles reported the gospels for us to believe and not as an advertisement.If you watch 'testimonies' on Tv especially froom fanatics like the Lord's chosen you will find out that the major reason for the show is not to spread the good nees rather to promote their church brand especially the name of their apron god of chosen |
joel lala: How many critically sick and diseased people did mother theresa touch every day of the week in a month when compared to nurses and doctors...Olodo ozu nwuruanwu ![]() |
chukwudi44: bros the Catholic curch has dne more than this and yet does not advertise it.Pastor Chris is not even half as popular as Fr Mbaka in the east.We Catholics do not just vrush to dclare mircales but every sign and wonder are investigated and made to undrego a very strict process involving theologians and Doctors are involved before the Church Officially declares a miracleBut when Jesus healed people and said they should go and tell others, or when he publicly healed people and the disciples had a account of how people reacted to it...would u term that advertisement? |
Pastor Kun: This is really a good initiative and is similar to what Paul requested be done for the persecuted saints in Jerusalem. It's so sad that our church leadership in Nigeria has failed to live up to it's responsibility. Someone like Oritsejafor is more interested in cheap popularity by making noise against the activities of boko haram whilst ignoring his responsibility to lead the way in providing succour for the victims in his capacity as the president of CAN.Yeah, Christembassey to the rescue of suffering Christians in the north....wait first, sir, where do u want Pa Oritsejafor et al to get the funds? Through soliciting of funds from the govt, from philanthropists, from where? Asking their churches to 'donate funds to help northern Nigerian churches'? From international churhes? Sha, anyhow u think they should or would havs done that, I don't have a problem with it....but why wouldn't he accept my free willed donation? ![]() |
christemmbassey: [size=32pt] as u rightly said, this thread is old and abandoned [/size] but Bidam exhume it thinking that he can use it to blackmail me all bc i r quoted james 4:17 to correct him as he insist on tithe fraud in another thread n very unfortunately gombs his fellow fraudster join in d mischief trying shamelessly to twist d Op to make it appear a7 if i was beging ppl to pay money to my a/c, imagine d level ppl can decend to just bc they think am attacking their oil well. Now, this is my problem with Bidam, from most of his posts in Nl, Bidam knows that christians are nnt commanded/supposed to pay tithe, but bc he is a beneficiary of d scam, he insist on d fraud claiming God reveal it to him. This hs as far as am concerned d hight of hypocrisy n wicked dishonesty. Bidam knows d truth but lack d grace to call off d scam n d duty of every christian is to shut them(scammers) up. Titus 1:10-11. ![]() Abandoned? Are Christians there done suffering? Or the churches done being built? Bidam just pointed out ur john 12v6 antics, just as John did Judas', simple....stop being sore about it. ![]() |
Joagbaje: Check this out . This is what pastors doWow....awesome testimony there and wonderful miracle....chukwudi take out time and watch it, ig is not called advertising, it is to the glory of God to stir faith in the hearts of men. |
ajayikayod: Bro, i believe u kno dt d way ds thread is going is already getting into carnal discussions, abuses and use of wrong words. U, me and nobody ll b edified lik ds at d end of d day. Its no more doctrinal issues dt are bein discussed, its now personalty attack on both sides.It is only christembassey that is insulting people here, using wrong words etc. Call him to order...wht he is doin is scriptural, but which monies does he want CAN and PFN to use if not tithes and offerings?...the OP has lost the chance to get my free willed donation to his 'noble' cause |
ukotmi: Both CAN and CAN are doing a lot already to help xtians in the north. They are rebuilding churches, feeding orphans and taking care of widows. Maybe, both bodies need to increase the tempo. Individual churches are also doing much to help the situation. They are not making noise. Most of the money they are spending helping in the north comes from tithes and offering.Christembassey, hope u have an answer now? CAN is doing alot already....u can rest now. |
Enduring With Hope · Saturday, November 9th · Pastor Anita Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ (2 Timothy 2:3). Patience is an important virtue for every Christian. The Bible admonishes us to add it to our faith: "And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience…" (2 Peter 1:5-6). The key word that describes what the Apostle Peter is talking about is endurance—‘stickability!’ It refers to staying power; the ability to "keep keeping on" in the face of opposition! No matter what happens, refuse to buckle under any pressure; endure with hope. Things may look hard and very challenging; if you ever find yourself in such a situation, endure; go through it! Stick with what you believe! Don’t give up. In your life, learn to endure hardship with hope. Some people endure without hope, but patience without hope is useless. Patience must be in expectation of a positive outcome; you’re hopeful of a better and brighter day ahead, and you create the picture in your mind. Tough situations are for tough minds; those who faint or cower in the day of adversity are of little strength (Proverbs 24:10). Therefore, endure hardness with hope, joy, and gladness, knowing that in all things, you’re more than a conqueror. Prayer Dear Father, I thank you for giving me hope in Christ Jesus. I know that my tomorrow is greater than my today because the path of the just is as a shining light that shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. I’m confident to face anything that comes my way, because I know my victory is assured, in Jesus’ Name.

chukwudi44: That's catholic style . Laying empty hands on empty head it's not bible.I was waiting for you to come...now let me leave the thread for you...why? Because I dont get why u cant make your points without insults? Would the pope respond as you did? And btw, father mbaka has never surpassed the crowd pastor Chris gather in physical or viewers or both..Google it....just type Pastor Chris in Fnb stadium and 02 arena etc...I am in no way comparing the two, cos they both have different grace, u shd quit comparing MOGs |
christemmbassey: bros do u have brain at all? What do u want my a/c no for, are u dis foolish? GHM.To send the 1k you are begging us for na! It is almost 6pm o..make up your mind fast joor You are now insulting me because I wanna help you with 1k to help churches in d north? |
ajayikayod: Why turning d Op post to tithe discussion.Who did? ajayikayod: The man was clear on wat he tot necessary, we only need to agree, disagree or giv advice.Read d thread again...we've done all the above..mi adviced him to go on his knees n I also offered to donate d 1k ajayikayod: Becos d Op doesnt believ in Tithing or attack some ppl on tithing doesnt mean he cant come up wit ideas on how to contribute money to help pplThis is not an idea, tho I wanna donate , if it was, CAN, PFN etc would have thought abt it. He doesn't really care abt the poor or the church thr...if he did he would have shown us efforts he has so far instituted before the OP..efforts like letter he wrote to PFN or CAN or how much he has given, or something...ajayikayod: and i never see him writing dt u should send him d cash.It is just in case he finally decides who he wants us to pay it to ajayikayod: and definately, helping others is never an offence in d scripture.Judas also said he wanted to help the poor ajayikayod: Lets try to be open minded in dealing wit issues. Both d tither or non tither hav other ways of giving and dts d way d Op called on (free will giving).I wanna give the 1k free willed ![]() |
Afam4eva: Why the dash(-) in your comment. I hope you know it's not wise running and talking at the same time?....it's like u should wear an L plate when u come to religion section...this is not politics section...here, a blunder does not fade off easily, it kills one's validity stand in a thread ![]() |
Afam4eva: Have a merry filled running. When put on the spot, you remove your shoe and take off. ![]() I didn't run, I just can't continue a conversation with a fellow who wont want to answer a simple short and precise question.....I just want u to wallow in the I-wished-I-didn't-type-what-I-typed feeling ![]() |
Afam4eva: I don't have time to engage in a verbal pilgrimage with you. Save us some time and show us where a pastor have laid hands on an obviously diseased person. I'm not here to answer questions. I've answered enough to last for a lifetime.I understand y u can't answer me....I'm just glad viewers of this page can draw conclusion for themselves... Have a merry filled afternoon sir |
Afam4eva: Why don't you present us with a bold and cogent prove instead of gallivanting with words. I only highlighted the fact that our Pastors in Nigeria have left the true essence of Christianity to pursue vanity.Answer my question pls...then we can proceed....a yes or no would be fine |
Afam4eva: Because i've never seen them do it. Why don't you prove otherwise.Is the above bold a logical and cogent enough reason for your conclusion that pastors don't do such? |
Afam4eva: Do doctors touch people like that without their gloves on? And is it not the job of doctors to do that? if they don't touch the diseased(though with gloves on), then who will?Answer my latter question sir |
Sal C: So sickness is now thesame as sin. Please stop that joke. |
