Hezron Lorraine: True men of God face religious persecution the most mostly from the ones that claim to be righteous.

Thank you for that

Deschil: I feel sorry for those who this man has been able to entice with his gifts and "miracles". A day will come when everybody will know the truth but unfortunately for his adherents, it will be too late. I am not "judging" but the Bible says to "test all spirits" and TB Joshua's is not of God.

Your words sound like that of lucifer - devil. No doubt. You're satan

dan tha mccoy: Whether or not he is 'fake', I haven't seen a bigger philantropist in Nigeria. The man preaches love and shows it, donating and helping the less priviledged regularly.
That's what matters for me. People can call him an occulist or whatever, I'm a fan. If all the other 'big' MOG were more like him instead of buying fleets of private jets...

He's real. Fake things don't last long. 25 years still counting

israel007: God of TBJ is my God.

Popular Nigerian Pastor, Prophet, and Televengelist - T. B. Joshua is one of the most misunderstood preachers in Nigeria. I invite you to take a closer look at these 7 facts you may not have known about this charismatic leader of the Synagogue Church of all Nation, Lagos.

1. According to FORBES Magazine, T. B. Joshua is one of the wealthiest pastors in Nigeria. He is said to be worth roughly $10-15 million in cash.

2. Africa's greatest and most influential leaders visit him regularly. A few names are; late President John Atta-Mills of Ghana, Zimbabwean Prime Minister-Morgan Tsvangirai, Winnie Nelson Mandela, Patience Goodluck Jonathan, Former Zambian President-Kenneth Kaunda etc

3. Some of his predictions, as a prophet, are are true. Whereas, others are not. For instance, his Prediction of Michael Jackson's demise was exactly fulfilled, but his prophecy about the Boko Haram menace becoming history by 2012 was not fulfilled.

4. T. B. Joshua is one of the greatest Philanthropists in Nigeria. According to Forbes Magazine, He has given away about $20million in the last three years. He was given the national honour of OFR for his charitable work.

5. Major African celebrities are his fans. Nollywood actress - Tontoh Dikeh said she was able to break her 15yr smoking habit as a result of Prophet T. B. Joshua's influence. Camilla Mberekpe, Denise Williams of Ghana, John Fashanu etc are other top celebrity fans of the prophet.

6. T. B. Joshua's mother carried him for 1 year and 6 months in her womb before she gave birth to him

7. He is the most criticized Nigerian pastor. Some other pastors have gone as far as setting up blogs such as; TB Joshua Watch designed to scrutinise and crticise the man in the synagogue.

Now that you know a little more about the popular prophet, what's your take on his activities?

That your number 4 is not correct. When did Prophe T.B Joshua give a prophecy like that that Boko Haram menace would end in 2012. I wonder where you heard it from. Maybe that's your own prophecy. You better go and look for something better to do. Stop posting trash. Mugu like you

I don't have much to comment about this but I think Keshi should consider his advise. There's alot to gain from it

Acelifted: It doesn’t bother me anymore to hear a phone ringing during a church service. It’s part of life in the 21st century. But I’ll admit I was shocked last month when I heard a ringtone while I was preaching—and a woman seated in the third row pulled her phone out of her purse and began a lengthy conversation as if she were in the waiting room of a beauty parlor.

That incident prompted me to post a question on Facebook the next day. I asked my friends to share their own stories of rudeness in church. That triggered an avalanche of pent-up frustration about crinkly peppermint wrappers, loud music, smelly feet (yes, someone took off their shoes during the service), unruly children, coffee-sipping saints and parishioners who try to finish their pastors’ sentences during sermons.

When I tallied the responses, I came up with this list of the rudest things people do in church:

1. Talking during a service.

2. Texting or surfing the web during a service. (One person mentioned seeing people playing video games on their phones.)

3. Sleeping—or snoring!—during a sermon.

4. Clipping fingernails during church. (I was amazed at how many people listed this offense. One person said his church’s sound technician clipped his nails routinely during the sermon, and it was amplified over the loud speaker.)

5. Answering a ringing phone in church.

6. Constantly getting up and leaving the auditorium, presumably to use the restroom.

7. Walking out of a service early, especially during a prayer.

8. Letting babies cry incessantly in the service.

9. Chewing or smacking gum. (One friend from Puerto Rico said he is particularly annoyed when people “chew gum like a goat.”)

10. Public display of affection. (One person complained about a man and wife who enjoy giving each other back rubs during worship.)

Those were the most common replies. Other infractions mentioned in my unscientific poll included (1) “Pushing people to the floor while praying for them”; (2) “Saying ‘Amen’ 100 times during the sermon”; (3) “Taking change from the offering plate”; (4) “Swearing in church” (I didn’t ask for the details on that!); and (5) “Drinking beverages during the entire service.”

But as I mused over these replies, I couldn’t help but wonder: What does God consider rude?

I don’t think He’s too annoyed by crying babies or rambunctious children. Nor do I think God is offended if a husband and wife get slightly cozy in church. And surely God has compassion for a person whose tiny bladder forces them to go to the restroom more often than everyone else. Some of us just need to lighten up and extend grace to latecomers, fidgety kids, teeth-grinders, young mothers with infants and people who have to report to work promptly at 1 p.m.

But when I look at the Bible, it’s obvious God doesn’t like it when people refuse to focus their attention when He’s talking. He has called us to listen. Moses told the Hebrews they would be blessed if they listened to God’s commandments (Deut. 11:27, NASB). Solomon said that when we come to God’s house we should “draw near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools” (Eccl. 5:1, emphasis added).

Isaiah said that God awakened him “to listen as a disciple” (Isa. 50:4, emphasis added), while Jeremiah rebuked Israel because they “did not listen or incline their ears” (Jer. 17:23, emphasis added). And when Jesus was glorified in His transfiguration, the Father declared, “Listen to Him!” (Luke 9:35, emphasis added). There is no possible way we can please God or be His faithful followers if we don’t learn to listen.

Yet today we live in a distracted culture. We are sleep-deprived multitaskers. We surf the web while we watch TV; we text while we drive; we tweet while we work; we take calls when we are meeting friends for conversation. Some people even crash into each other while walking on sidewalks because they are too busy Googling to see another distracted Googler headed straight toward them.

We are so focused on everything that we can’t focus on anything. I sometimes wonder if the proliferation of fast food, sugary drinks, movies on demand, “smart” phones and 24-hour news isn’t rewiring our brains so we can’t focus on what’s really important. We’re turning into media zombies.

I’m not bashing technology. But we could lose the art of discipleship if we don’t reclaim the habit of careful listening. That means when we come to church, especially, we should not just turn off our phones but also tune out all other distractions so we can focus on what God is saying to us—through the preacher, the worship songs, the prayers and the Holy Spirit’s still, small voice.

Please don’t be rude to God. Don’t just go to church. Go and hear the word of the Lord. Don’t talk, text, sleep or take calls when He is speaking. Listen as if your life depended on it

Make I nor collect my change from the offering because na them work the money for me. Nonsense post

On the 7th of July, 2013, the senior prophet of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) Prophet T.B. Joshua talked about employment for graduates which is a program that started days ago in the SCOAN called the SCOAN Job Creation Program. He said that graduates are struggling with the uneducated for unskilled jobs and at the end of the day the uneducated will get the job because they've been in the job for a very long time and during that time the other were in school. He talked about Per time lessons in the university which is meant for the working class people which is been dominated by the youths. He said that education is not been valued in Nigeria because of unemployment and that the brilliant ones in school don't perform best when they look back and see graduates that have no job or that are doing jobs that is meant for the uneducated. He further said that there would be a revolution by the youths because of this unemployment. Lets help to reduce unemployment in Nigeria and the world at large so that there would be peace.

I nor get much to post but make I use this opportunity take talk to that future beautiful wife. I gonna be the best man in the world for you because I know what it is to be without love and still love, to feel pain and still strive on and to still push on in life in the worst situation which only the strong in heart would be able to survive. I gonna be the best father to our children because I know what it is for not having a father to guide me when I needed guidance and to advise me when I needed one. I will be like a brother to you because I have non. I'm not perfect but our two would make a relationship that perfect won't even be worthy to qualify. I've not had sex once and am 19 years old now and I still which to keep it so because I respect the female gender and I don't want do something that would or may later come to hunt us in our relationship. *my battery don low. Na Nokia phone I dey use* Much love to my future wife

alutacontinua: As i no get plenty job now, make I write something...who knows, we might go over it in the next 5 years and laugh

On my bed,
4th of July, 2013.

Dear Future Husband,
I have a lot to say to you, especially at such a time like this but I'll just summarize it in few words.
First of all, you better be handsome or else I'll smash your head...ain't nobody giving birth to ugly children.
Second of all, you better be smart and intelligent...ain't nobody living with a 'Johnbull' as a husband or rearing 'Johnbulls' as kids.
Third of all, you better be God-fearing...I mean not all this 'Christian' brothers that ...I don't need you to be the pastor of a 5000-man congregation or the leader of the prayer group association of Nigeria...All I need is that you should be a 'Christian'...in the real sense of the word. I just can't cope with all these so-called Christian brothers around nowadays, they're worse than outright unbelievers. and to say they almost spit fire when they're speaking in tongues. ...May God help us.

Ehhhrrrmmmm...that list was in ascending order of importance.

I really hope and believe that by the time I meet you, I would have known the real meaning of 'love' cos as it is now, the only people I know I love without any shadow of doubt are my family members. You see all the other guys i've met, I will think i'm going crazy because of them but I just wake up one day and I give myself a million and one reasons why he doesn't worth it and boooooooommmmmmmm...the feelings just dissappear into thin air. At least, my father has done some pretty unpleasant things to me before but I still wouldn't trade him for anything in the world...that means if I truly love someone, I wouldn't just count on some few things and make it all go away. So, i've come to conclude that i've not experienced true love. I need you to come and sweep me off my feet, guess that's my basic problem...they just don't sweep me off my feet...I'm not saying be Mr. Perfect but let your imperfections be just right for me. Not the ones that I feel much much better after the break-up...worrisdat? I'm supposed to feel bad after a break-up, not happy! The kind of happy of you wanna go and share testimony in church. But I know with you, a day without you would be like hell fire, yes, that is when I know i'm finally down and rolling in the ocean of love.

I pray for you as much as I can and hope that you do same for me too, I don't hope to meet you too soon....I need a few months more...I wanna concentrate on my career for now...the next 2 years are too critical for me and i need to focus, so, i wouldn't mind if you can give me at least till 2015 before you rear up your head. I need the whole of next year to make some critical decisions, having you around would stream-line my options, I don't want my options narrowed down yet, I want to explore as much as I can, I promise when you come, I'll narrow down as much as I can just to make sure we're both happy.

Did I mention that I need just 2 babies, any gender goes for me! If you're crazy about a third, we might adopt one. And I promise you with everything inside of me, those children are gonna have the best mother they could ever wish for. I'll do anything to make them happy and make you proud of them always! SO HELP ME GOD!

Am I perfect? Baby, I'm not...My major imperfection being my mouth ...not that I go all around yabbing people..NO, but i say the truth a lil too much. If you can handle the truth just like I do handle it....you're gonna be having the best woman on earth by your side every step of the way for the remaining days of your life . I can be that! I can be that woman who stands by you everyday, come rain, come sun! I can be that woman who bounces off the challenges life throws at us even before you do...I'll always be there to pull you up when you need me to. I can be the sweetest, innocent, cutest baby you've ever met when I have to but I can also be the strongest IRON LADY you'll ever meet when I have to. Guess that's where my uniqueness comes in...Just love me for who I am and I promise you, we'll shake our world together. LOTS OF LOVE!

FRSC needs to adopt new measures in dealing with these truck drivers. Not just measures but strict measures that would make them to know that they can kill one of their own with their reckless driving

Amen

nora544: He want to tell his followers that he needs a jet, that he can fly from one country to the other country that is what he want

You're wrong

If true, then this is the begining of the downfall of the Super Eagles of Nigeria. Tell whoever is the chairman or chairperson of the NFF to leave the job to coach or he should probably just do the coaching work by himself

Prophet TB Joshua in the live sunday service today said it's time for him to move from one country to another. He said this during afternoon when he was giving prophecy to members. What's your thought about this? @NAIRALANDERS God with us

I think he deserves the award but he should do more
