TV/MoviesBest Nigerian Christian Films Of All Time by istina(op): 5:48am On Jan 30, 2022
This is my top 10 Nigerian Christian films of all time

10. O TI GAN PA(ALFA SULE)
The movie was a hit back then not just in the Christian circuit but, it cut across to all and sundry because of its’ moral lessons for all. This movie that came from the stable of CHRIST CHOSEN VESSEL DANCE DRAMA MINISTRY was actually the movie that brought Ayo Ajewole now known as WOLI AGBA to limelight and was equally produced by his elder brother Femi Ajewole The movie wasn’t just unique for its’ time because of its’ morals but also, for the way and manner it passed across the message of Jesus Christ even through comic relief yet; without watering down the gospel. I think our so called ‘nowadays Christian comedians’ need to learn from these guys.

09. DESTINY FOR SALE
A powerful movie from the stable of EVOM FILMS and produced by Sola Mike-Agboola, DESTINY FOR SALE is a film to watch for all but especially for the youths. It addresses issues such as peer pressure, cultism, and indecision, among several issues but above all that one’s destiny is too great a thing and should never be gambled with. You need to see this movie if you’ve not.

08. KEMBE ISONU (Series)
This wonderful piece from Femi Adebile’s PREM FILM PRODUCTION INTERNATIONAL is an epic film that deals with the battles between the power of God and the powers of darkness. It showcases the potency and the triumph of the word of God over the kingdom of darkness. If you enjoyed AGBARA NLA you will definitely fall in love with this.

07. NIGBA KAN RI/ONCE UPON A TIME
‘Let anyone that thinketh he standeth take heed less he falls’ is the summary of this blockbuster from Sola Mike-Agboola of EVOMS FILMS. This is a must watch for every believer and non-belier as well but especially children of God who want to avoid the pitfall of GRACE TO GRASS due to the self-delusion of ‘Past Glory’.

06. EGUN AIMO/UNKNOWN CURSE
Most EVOMS FILMS usually come out with timely messages for that era or period of time and this is one of such. This movie that came out in the late ‘90s is one of Sola Mike-Agbola’s flicks that has the right message for the right time; to expose the secrets of satan to the children of God that they may know the truth that will set them free.

05. AGBARA NLA/ THE ULTIMATE POWER (Series)
This film needs no introduction in the Christian genre, It is a master in its’ own class – a MASTERCLASS. ‘Brewed’ at MOUNT ZION FAITH MININISTRY by the grandmaster himself Mike Bamiloye, in 1992. The film graphically depicts the victory of the power of Christ over the evil powers of darkness. The film had great influence and impact on almost all back then in the ‘90s that characters such as ISHAWURU, ARO-META, AYAMATANGA, etc. were songs on the lips of even fuji musicians.

04. THE GODS ARE DEAD
This is one of my best MOUNT ZION movies of all time. Talk about a movie that advertised the Almightiness of God over the impotency and even the death of the idol gods (according to its’ title). Directed by Elvon Jarret and released in the year 2000, the movie is deeply rich both in culture and scriptures; colourful in costumes and powerful in messages. Mike Bamiloye used this movie to introduce to us characters such as ALAJOGUN, ILEPA OSU, GBEMOSANLE, ORISA AGBONGBON, etc. The all-time best performance of Bro Israel Ore-Adewole is seen in this movie as the chief priest of the land of BODE AJUWON

03. LAND OF FURY
This to me is the best MOUNT ZION movie in modern times. Superbly crafted by the younger generation of the ministry in 2018 with the Midas touch of Damilola, Joshua and Darasimi Mike-Bamiloye; the movie has come to take its’ place among the best classics of all time. It deals with some of the harsh realities of Nigeria today, especially the northern part of the country where kidnapping, banditry and terrorism is the order of the day. The movie is uniquely different and breaks away from the traditional MOUNT ZION movies that the world is used to and the message is so touching that it could bring tears to your eyes

02. LOST FOREVER
The first MOUNT ZION full movie that I ever saw remains my best of all their movies. Released in 1991, this movie did not only touched souls but it actually changed my life for good for ever. The movie is a total dramatic expression of Matthew 8:36 ‘what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and loses his soul’. The movie is too powerful to explain with few lines, you need to watch it to experience it.

01. LIFE FOR LIFE
Call it great, wonderful, impactful, powerful, touching and you will still be far from the best description of this EVOM FILMS mastercraft. The story of the movie was so popular back then that, before I watched it I used to think it was a storyline of some foreign Christian movie. Produced in 1991, the movie was very impactful back then that mere hearing the storyline told at crusades by revivalists won countless souls for Christ even without seeing the movie. It tells the story of two twin brothers, one is bad and a thief; the other is born again and good. Eventually, the good one had to take the place of the bad one in death so that his bad brother would not die and go to hell fire. This Sola Mike-Agoola movie is perhaps the greatest salvation story ever told in motion pictures.

These deviations from the divine standard of Adam and Eve, are sometimes the results of demonic activity and only the saving, healing and deliverance power of the LORD Jesus can be the remedy. However being afflicted does not entirely mean you are condemned to hell or promised heaven. What determines your salvation is belief in the LORD Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross.

Christianity EtcRe: What Does The Bible Say About Intersex? by istina(op): 12:29pm On Oct 31, 2021
[quote author= post=107209027]From a biblical perspective, the answer is “no.” Despite the fact that a tiny fraction of the population faces life with an intersex condition, Scripture teaches that humans are made in God’s image as male and female, and that there’s a complementarity of the sexes that uniquely brings forth new life and – mysteriously – reflects who God is (Gen. 1:27). Clearly, gender and sexuality matter to God.

Yet, we humans live in a fallen state – and in a fallen world – which impacts us spiritually, emotionally, mentally and even physically. Indeed, there are a number of genetic, biological and congenital conditions that manifest themselves in ways that preclude certain activities and plague our physical existence.
But we know that God is good and He intends to show Himself strong in our weaknesses. Moreover, His mercies are new every morning (Lam. 3:23) and He promises us the ongoing and sufficient grace we need (2 Cor. 12:9) in order to walk in ways that bring Him glory and more fully reveal Himself to a broken and dying world.

So how should we, as Christians, minister to those among us who deal with the unique and often traumatic circumstances associated with intersexuality?
Some intersex individuals will marry, and some may never discover their underlying condition. But Jesus’ own words, as recorded in Matthew 19, should serve as our guide for those who cannot or don’t marry due to intersex issues.

Recall that in this passage Jesus is discussing eunuchs who were “born” that way, “made that way” by men, or have “renounced marriage because of the kingdom of heaven.” While the context of this statement by Jesus is clearly centered on the questions of divorce, marriage, and God’s created intent for human sexual expression, it’s comforting to note that Jesus frames both the beginning and end of his comments here with an acknowledgment that not all can accept this word – indicating deep compassion on His part with those who find themselves in circumstances whereby they are unable to enter into the “one-flesh union” of marriage, whether by design, mutilation or personal decision. Moreover, Jesus indicates that this calling is given to only a few – implying that abundant grace is afforded to those who, for whatever reason, are to bear what Paul refers to as the gift of singleness (1 Cor. 7).

Culled[/quote]So, are you saying because they were naturally born th a t way, they can't become a Christian and can't make heaven?
Christianity EtcRe: What Does The Bible Say About Intersex? by istina(op): 12:23pm On Oct 31, 2021
paxonel:
The bible never mentioned anything about intersex individuals or any kind of mutants resulting from inbreeding depression or loss of hybrid vigor. Although we heard cases in the bible where angels came down from heaven to have canal knowledge(mate) with humans, as a result there was proliferation of unusual people such as giants who started committing havac to the creation, many of them were wiped out by the great flood of Noah generation.

But we still see unusual traits today like people having four fingernails instead of five, one hand or eye balls bigger in size than the other and even intersex you mentioned, non of these traits were ever mentioned significantly in the bible, only giants were mentioned.

Talking about whether people having these unusual traits like intersex can be Christians or will make heaven?

John 3:16 ...whosoever believes in him..

Mark the word WHOSOEVER.
That means there are no distinction in traits or characters
No distinction in race, tribe or culture or whatever.

Christianity EtcWhat Does The Bible Say About Intersex? by istina(op): 6:16am On Oct 31, 2021
What does the bible really say about INTERSEX? By this I do not mean TRANSGENDERS who are entirely different set of people . Socrates said ‘the beginning of wisdom is definition of terms’, so for clarity purpose I think it’s best we define both terms.

TRANSGENDER: Someone appearing as, wishing to be considered as, or having undergone surgery to become a member of the opposite sex.
In a nutshell, a Transgender is someone who wishes to be considered as a member of the opposite sex.

INTERSEX: An organism possessing several sex characteristics of both male and female such as chromosomes, gonads, sex hormones or genitals. It is a situation whereby a person is born with reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t fit the boxes of ‘female’ or ‘male’. Think of someone with all the female physical appearance but has a penis instead of a vaginal.

One of the major differences between the two classes of people is that while INTERSEX is natural, TRANSGENDER is unnatural.

Having known the difference , the question now is what does the bible say concerning those who were naturally born as INTERSEX . Can they be Christians? Can they make heaven?
