Yes, compete for the worst.

You and your compatriots will not succeed in your endervours to destroy this country by the grace of God.

Who will now force them to release what they are stealing?

BECAUSE THE ILLITERATE FOOL PLEADED GUILTY.

When you plead guilty to a crime in court, you are at the mercy of the judge to do as he or she pleases...

Bobrisky deserve an award, he seem like the first Nigerian will ever plead guilty to a crime in court

Am curious why he come dey pain you now? If he plead not guilty he for no pain you like this?

I think Bobrisky played a fast one on you people again.

Why use a filmsy excuse to nail him if not just playing to the gallery. Something that everybody does. The politicians are even the worst for it during their campaigns.

Now the witch-hunting will trickle down.

By the time USA is done wasting EU and all their allies weapon supporting Israel and Ukraine CHINA will just take them when their weapon has reduced drastically

The so called world war 3 will be a walk over and CHINA will win without stress

Iran oya gbera and let these people waste their weapons as usual

Well the last weapon to be 'wasted', Sir , might just be the nuclear boom.

What a wotowoto.

Attack, they say, is the best form of defence, anyways.

May the better side win.

I suspect the driver of the tow truck is drunk.

Many things are wrong in that place.

Sapasenator:
He pleaded " Not guilty" and had to be granted bail. That is what Brobrisky lawyer should have done.

NEVER PLEAD GUILTY BEFORE A JUDGE EVEN IF CAUGHT RED HANDED.

Always go on a trial.

Bobrisky's lawyer deserves a dirty slap.

I dey suspect say Bobrisky plead guilty for a reason, maybe to prove a point

Seems to me like the EFCC is now gonna have a lot on their hands concerning the naira note abuse issue because of Bobrisky. I wonder why he pleaded guilty. I mean, everybody does it, don't they?

Authority stealing/misdemeanor

Kobojunkie:
So, you think that Jesus Christ's declaration seemed racist and so you felt the need to save Him by casting Him as some sort of liar? Interesting!

You speak of the household of God but forget that the same God declared that He is the God of not, the Philistines, the Canaanites, or the Amelekites, but instead the God of Israel. You forget that this is the same God who proclaimed that His only inheritance in the
If God Himself declared that His Household is that which is comprised of the descendants of Jacob— people with the blood of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob running through their veins —, and Jesus Christ was submitted to the Will of His Father, YHWH(God of Israel), why then do you consider it racist that Jesus Christ would declare that His Father sent Him only to the Lost sheep of Israel? Why not outright declare that the God of Israel was racist from the get-go and abandon Him altogether? Why choose to ignore the Word of Jesus Christ when His Words are in following with that which was decreed by His Father?

2. I am not certain why you feel the need to mention the mixed company when the instructions given by the God of Isreal clearly that the Covenants belong only to those who are of the blood of Israel— descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20? . How could they have joined themselves to the Jews(the Benjamites, Levites, and Judaic subset of the original Nation of Israel) without being joined to them by blood— the life of a man is in his blood— of Jacob? How?

3. These stories of yours reveal ignorance of Scripture. Right there in John 3 vs 14 - 18, Jesus Christ told you that the people He came to redeem were those who were judged and cursed by God as a result of their disobedience of His Old Law. The people who you say are favored by God were judged and condemned by Him to perish in the grave. Jesus Christ, like the bronze snake, came to offer them salvation from that condemnation aka Death that they were condemned to.

4. If you look up what God said in Genesis 26 vs 2-5, you would understand that to have faith simply means to live one's life in submission and obedience to God's Law. That is after all what Abraham did— have faith in God— and was hence justified by God for. As a foreigner living in the land of Canaan, even the Canaanite woman was required to abide by the Law of Moses which happened to the National Constitution of the nation at the time. And for that, she too earned faith, even though she was not of the blood of Jacob.

Yes, she had faith but her faith did not change the fact that she was not one of the Master's children, and as a foreigner she was entitled, even by The Old Law, only to the crumbs from the master's table. She said that herself, did she not? The Canaanite woman was not one of those whom He was sent to by His Father to redeem from the curse of the Old Law since by virtue of her not being an Israelite by birth— not of the blood of Israel —, she did not qualify.

Luke 7:1-10
Jesus Heals a Centurion's Servant
7 After he had finished all his sayings in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum. 2 Now a centurion had a servant[a] who was sick and at the point of death, who was highly valued by him. 3 When the centurion[b] heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 And when they came to Jesus, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy to have you do this for him, 5 for he loves our nation, and he is the one who built us our synagogue.” 6 And Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. 7 Therefore I did not presume to come to you. But say the word, and let my servant be healed. 8 For I too am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me: and I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” 9 When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turning to the crowd that followed him, said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.” 10 And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the servant well.
So by what criteria was the centurion's servant healed? By birth? You Israel Only-ners sef, una dey tire person.

Kobojunkie:
Stop twisting yourself into knots over what is plainly written!
The woman in question invoked mercy under the Covenant of David and then asked to be healed by Jesus Christ by it. That was the problem. That Covenant only applied as far as those who were of the Blood of Jacob.

Think of this a different way! According to the same you, Jesus Christ lived His Life in submission to the Old Law of Moses, so why would He have obliged her under the terms of a different Covenant that He was not even qualified to give to her?

It wasn't about racism or Israelites only, it was about being in the household of God. Are there not mixed-company among Israelites? These being people of other races that had joined themselves to the Jews. Even the favored people had to repent and have faith to receive from Jesus. It was about being in the household of God. Her faith in the Master, which even some Jews did not have, saved her daughter on that day. Her words shows she was on the right path.

Kobojunkie:
The very pronouncement of Jesus Christ, the same one you pretend came to save you, are of my opinion? Yikes! So Jesus Christ who claimed to be the Word out of God's very own mouth is no longer so, according to you?

Yaa, this na definitely argument by pigheadedness at play here.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The woman in question was asking for a miracle and not salvation. Otherwise she would have been told to embrace Judaism and come close to the Master because of the incoming dispensation. Because of the incoming era even John was born, to make His way straight. John 1:22,23.

All this monkey tactics sef. Only in Africa.

Kobojunkie:
WOw.... the famous argument by Pigheadedness Christians are notorious for using!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You had based your notion on the Bible and I asked you to to provide the evidence from the same Book and you couldn't. But now you want to go philosophical. That means you lost in the line of Bible truth.
'Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.' 2 Timothy 2:15. is an admonition from Paul to Timothy. Try and do the same. You will be glad you did. Peace.

Pastor wan take the woman catch cruise. Him for just blow. The rest now na damage control.
The lesson here is think well before you do, look before you leap. Love could have gone a long way. Try not to play to the gallery.

Kobojunkie:
The issue here is Jesus Christ — His teachings and commandments, God's Law — seems more of an afterthought to you than anything else. You seem to be under some idea that everything Jesus Christ said must be interpreted based on your ideas of what is presented in the rest of the New Testament— Ideas mostly culled from that which you have gleaned from your religious leaders. This is as opposed to validating everything else presented in the rest of the New Testament against that which was first spoken by Jesus Christ. Why?

Am resting my case as you cannot provide an evidence to prove your notion, hence you have no proof.
Case closed, isn't it?

GRACEGLORY:
At least, he solved his problem eventually. The next 50 years will keep his belt tight around his waist as supposed.

Lol
And the child support he will not pay. Good for him.

Case closed, isn't it?

Kobojunkie:
Why are these desperate attempts to deviate from the main issue here which is that Jesus Christ did establish that His Father sent Him ONLY to the Lost Sheep of Israel?

2. This is instead what is written in the context you quoted from the book of Revelations. Notice that the context of what is written is the same Jesus Christ whose teachings and commandments are recorded in the Gospels.
The Holy Spirit whom you pretend spoke a different thing did not change anything of what Jesus Christ said in His Gospels. He upholds Jesus Christ, the one who told you in Matthew 15 vs 24 that He was sent by His Father — the God of Israel — only to the Lost sheep of Israel. Why you go all the way to the Book of Revelations for information to try to make a liar of Him is beyond me.

3. Here's the message that Jesus Christ gave to His followers in that same passage you quoted from. Note that the instruction was that His followers teach to those whom they are sent to all that which He, Jesus Christ previously taught to them, and this would include....
... the fact that dogs(Non-Israelites) were not to be given that which is Holy, and redemption as offered by Jesus Christ via the Davidic covenant does not belong to the dogs (Non-Israelites).

The World Jesus Christ sent His followers into is the same world that He made clear was previously cursed by God in the desert after which He then raised the Bronze snake - John 3 vs 14 - 18. That world consisted only of the children of Israel— the Lost sheep of Israel described in Matthew 20 vs 22-24—, and that is the same world that He sent His disciples into. There are today Israelites in pretty much all nations of the world, and the work He sent His disciples out to do is to gather them all back from every tribe, every tongue, and every nation of the world, just as described in Matthew 25 vs 31 - 33.

4. That passage has nothing to do with this here issue abeg!

I had told you: give me an instant, where it was recorded, in the Bible where a non-Israelite was rejected and prevented from being baptized, hence becoming a Christian an you couldn't do that. Why!?

Who is serious here and who isn't? Shebi they said they were probably only high on some hard stuff.

They might even want to tell us they are paying subsidy for the the very air we are breathing and agbadorians will believe them. Baluba set of people.

Kobojunkie:
I am afraid the ignorant one here is you. From the moment they met Jesus Christ, His followers ceased to live under the Old Law embracing the new Law instead. Jesus Christ prepared them to endure the same suffering that He did as their master. He called them students/sheep proclaiming He was their Teacher. Even the Pharisees asked Jesus Christ why His followers did not fast as they who were under the Old Law of Moses did, and if you recall Jesus Christ's response to them, you would not that even then He pronounced a rule that was different from that contained in the Old Law in response to their query. It is for this reason that the actions of the disciples continued to bring fear to the religious establishment of the time even after Jesus Christ was taken away from the picture.

These ideas you spew, all of which contradict the very Gospel according to Jesus Christ, in an attempt to distract from the main which is that Jesus Christ indeed warned His followers not to give that which is Holy—redemption by way of the Gospel —to the Non-Israelites(the dogs in even Matthew 7 vs 6) are taken from lies fed you by religious leaders who reject Jesus Christ and assert their ideas in His place.

2. The Book of Revelation never told you that lie. Rather, your pastors and ignorant gods of men did.

Tell me how they fast according to the Old testament
This is what the Holy Spirit says in the Book of
Revelation (22:17):
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

On Jesus part He had said:
'Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,' Matthew 28:19.

If you like to know this is what had transpired :

Genesis 22:15-18
15 The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time 16 and said, “I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring[a] all nations on earth will be blessed,[b] because you have obeyed me.”

You still want to say something?

Kobojunkie:
Matthew 15 vs 20 - 28. The Canaanite woman asked for God's mercy available through the Covenant of David --- redemption that is only available to the Lost sheep of Israel; Jesus Christ refused her it on the basis that she was a dog - a Non-israelite. He instead allowed her have what are crumbs that fall from the table off the children of the master.

The Canaanite woman was most likely not the first Non-israelite healed by Jesus Christ and she must not have been the first to have faith in the land given that all foreigners living in the land were required to live according to the Law of Moses -- faith. However, she had asked for that which belonged only to the children of the master and the children of the master are the Lost sheep of Israel.

You are very ignorant of this things. Jesus Himself lived under the old testament rules and regulations. His followers were also under the old testament laws. It was after His death and resurrection that Christianity began right on the Pentecost day with the Apostle Peter opening the door of the Kingdom (preaching the first sermon) as fortold. Thereafter, every one is welcome. The Book of Revelation reportedly says the Holy Spirit says 'Come' to everyone.

Market forces. No matter how hard they try to destroy the economy things will actually get better by the grace of God.

Kobojunkie:
I am afraid you have it all twisted on all sides. Jesus Christ never changed His mind regarding those whom His father gave to Him given that at the same end which you reference He also proclaimed that His Words would never change. So when He sent His followers into the world...the world He sent them into was the same world He said His father sent Him, the world that was of the Lost sheep of Israel and not the dogs -- non-israelites.

Just an instant where a non-Israelite was refused to become a Christian right from the Bible will be enough for me to agree with you.
