Foreign Affairs / Re: Czech Republic Recognizes Jerusalem As The Capital Of The State Of Israel by initiate: 5:58pm On Dec 07, 2017
Naming Jerusalem the Capital of Israel Fact Sheet:

Historical Significance:

The history of Israel dates back to Genesis and the story of Abram who would become Abraham.
Abraham was promised a land by God (the promised land), and that land was Canaan and would later become Israel (Genesis 12—fulfilled when descendant Joshua takes the land in Joshua 6 when the walls come down).
David declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel (City of David- 2 Sam. 5).
Legally documented in 1950, the Jerusalem Law was passed by the Israel Knesset, declaring Jerusalem to be the eternal, undivided capital of the state of Israel.
In 1995, Democrat President Bill Clinton signed a statute stating, "Since 1950, the city of Jerusalem has been the capital of the state of Israel."


Theological Importance:

Christianity begins in Jerusalem serving as the context for Jesus' life and earthly ministry
The city where Jesus was crucified on a cross
The city where He was laid in a tomb
The city where He rose from the grave
The city where He showed Himself to many others over a forty-day period
The city where many believe Abraham brought Isaac up Mt. Moriah and passed God's test of faith
The city where King Solomon built the magnificent Temple, declaring it a house of prayer for all nations
The city Isaiah envisioned as the world's center where the nations would beat their swords into plowshares, and learn war no more
The city where Jesus wept
Shared Significance with Orthodox Jews:

The significance of Jerusalem to Christians cannot be separated from the significance of Jerusalem to the Jewish people
Their history is our history
We are intertwined through our Old Testament scriptures and spiritual legacy. Their biblical examples are our biblical examples and we share this heritage in Jerusalem as our spiritual capital while Israel also legally proclaims it as her national capital. Their national history has become our spiritual history
Final Thoughts

Naming the city of Jerusalem the capital of Israel is not just a political right of Israel, it is the right of all nations. It is also of great theological importance to Christians world-wide, and certainly to the churches I pastor. Please join me in praying for the peace of Jerusalem, as Scripture implores us to do, and we trust her peace and prosperity, not to man-made institutions and international efforts, but to the God of all Peace, and to the greatest Jew to have ever lived, Jesus Christ.

Science/Technology / Re: What Will Our World Look Like In A Thousand Years From Now? by initiate: 8:07am On Nov 20, 2017
Read the book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation and get someone with understanding to explain it to you then you would know that the work as we know it would not exist by then!

But there are some imminent situations that can mess up the current equilibrium in the immediate future
1 If Saudi and Iran proxy war escalate into direct conflict that will be ww3 as US and Russia will take sides immediately
2 If NK misreads Trumps rhetoric they may do something foolish and you never know where it will end
3 If Europeans allow the Muslims to take over the continent, there will be a total reorganization of the world order with chaos and violence becoming rampant

So what is the way forward?

In John 13:33, Jesus said, “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.” This prompted Peter to ask where He was going (verse 36). Peter and the others did not understand that Jesus was speaking of His death and ascension to heaven. Jesus’ response was, “Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow later.”

So how do we follow Him today? The same way the disciples did long ago. They heard the words of Jesus and believed them. They took His words and obeyed them. They confessed their sins to Jesus as their Lord and God. They believed that He died to take the punishment of their sins and rose from the dead to give them new life. They followed His example and command to tell others the truth about sin, righteousness, and judgment. When we follow Him in “the way,” we can be assured of following Him all the way to heaven.

OjukwuWarBird:









HOW DO WE CROSS OVER THE LAST HURDLE ( Juju Shrine Oath of Allegiance )

1) With wealth generated by the covert industries and financial institutions established by Biafrans, sponsor people to become INEC and ISEC officials at all levels since they are the ones that announces results.

2) Train members of Biafran Secret Service to conceal their membership in public in order to easily protect these INEC officials from assassinations and kill those Pro Nigerian Igbos in power that want to kill these INEC & ISEC officials.




Correct me if I am wrong.


if you are in Nigeria you will know that this allegiance cant be guaranteed without the said oath!

you even want to amass funds from the diaspora and administer liberally without guarantee once anyone claims ipob? in your dreams man!
Politics / Re: What We Can Learn From Catalonia by initiate: 7:50pm On Oct 02, 2017
For trying to renounce their role in the proscription of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), second republic lawmaker, Junaid Muhammad, has described the Southeast governors as a bunch of confusionists.

Muhammad made the remark in response to an alleged declaration by Governor Okiezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, that southeast governors only banned IPOB, without declaring it a terrorist organisation.

It could be recalled that the governor had reportedly disclosed that “my duty and responsibility as at that day was to make sure that I avert bloodshed of monumental proportion

But in an interaction with The Guardian, the second republic lawmaker maintained that “owing to the fact that the southeast governors sat and held a meeting to proscribe the activities of IPOB as a result of their violent nature of agitation, justified their move to proscribe the activities of the terrorist group, what President Buhari did was only to enact a decision, which had been taken earlier by them.

“But I want to assure you that whether they proscribe it or not, whether they regard IPOB as terrorist, illegal or legal organisation, it remains proscribed and if they play games, they are going to be dealt with by the law.


“IPOB is an Igbo project, so don’t confuse yourself, the Igbo are the ones financing it, I don’t care whether the southeast governors are not in support of the proscription or not.”

This is not true, agriculture alone can propel the north over the south economically if they are willing to look inward.

look inwards?

really?


what would they see when they look inwards? you are still not looking at the reality. I guess you want to compare with Netherlands right? on the contrary these people over here do not have the innate skills, nor the drive, nor the foresight to do anything better.

look at japan, they have limited natural resources but the people are doing wonders

summary is that any great nation achieved the heights through their human resources. here we have exploitative leaders and subservient, docile and gullible people who have accepted poverty as their own lot in life. as a man thinketh so he is.

The idea is not to make the north stranded and impoverished but to make every region self sustainable and productive. The feeding bottle analogy by Mr. Odumakin is so apt.

That is true on paper. But in reality, without the South the North would be as poor as Niger republic or Chad. And their leaders have realized that hence their reluctance to let go

This thing is getting serious o. Yoruba elders will bring a systematic approach to the whole thing and the north will be left stranded and impoverished. Buhari should better reconcile before it gets too late and his people will face dire consequences.

Family / Re: Why marriages are failing and solutions by initiate: 1:36pm On Sep 02, 2017
the major reason is lack of preparation, many people go into it cos others are doing it, or cos you feel its the next step, or to gain money or fame(eg tonto and hubby) and then you find its not all that glitters...............

so all intending couples should be well prepared, sincerely ask themselves why they want to marry, seek counseling from couples with decades of experience and also from your elders and pastors. and pray well.

its like any other issue of life, like going to college or going to war, the better prepared you are the more your chances of success

@op you should change the title to "wrong reasons to go into marriage" and hope people will learn
