SpecialAdviser:

I read in the other thread about why you stop watching pornography and saw how most people obejected to the guys advice.
One other guy even opened a counter thread. Suffice is to say that most people who commented in objection do not really
understand the evil of pronography and below reasons may help to open your eyes.

1. Masturbation. Pornography leads to masturbation. Many writers have wrongly asserted that masturbation has a positive merit.
When you become a chronic masturbator, it becomes a disturbing habit and you can hardly find peasure in real sex with your partner.
This is one reason, some men can go for masturbation leaving their wife groaning on bed. Some men do masturbate before their wives come home and they become hopeless when their wives call for the real action. If you always watch pronography, then Masturbation is knocking on your door and a very high possibility that you may not satisfy your partner is underway. Beside you may suffer low sperm count. People may deceive you that it teaches sex.
This is fallacious. If watching pornography teaches sex, then no man or woman will ever complain of non-satisfaction. The partner
could watch porns and do it properly. But latest statistics shows that partners are hardly satisfied. How did our forefathers
who were not exposed to these porns became better than us in satisfying their partners?. Open your eyes, it's all lies.

2. Infertility. Did you hear that? Excessive pornography leads to waywordness and can be dangareous because you simply will get all manner of infections. What about abortions? Watching porns can lead you to all manner of reckless
sex life thereby hindering your changes of propoer fertility. Many are still looking for the fruit of the womb. None will explain their reckless youthful exorbarance to the public. Be careful, you may be one of those that will go from church to church
seeking miracle due to your careless youthfull life.

3.High impossible Expectation. Watching pornography is surely going to make you expect a lot from your partner.
Imagine the fact that you are very dirty down there, but expect your partner to give you a Mouth Action. He or she may not be disposed to ding that even if you are clean. You always want this style or that style. What if your partner is huge and may not be able to do all the stuff that flexible girl in the porn movie is doing? You will surely feel unsatisfied. You expect your parner to be everything you watch in movie. This way, the family will hardly be okay with a matching intercourse. Be careful of what you watch because tomorrow both of you will cry of insatisfaction.

4. Time consuming. The truth is that porn can take away the precious time you would need to make a neccesary achievement in life. While others are trading forex, trading bitcoin, or doing social marketing, you are stucked with pornography online. You waste time. You waste money and end up stupid. Be careful.

5.Poor Intelligence. Pornographic addiction leads to a drastic reduction in intelligence. This is because a great part
of your brain gets consumated in thinking about the hot scenes you watched. You can hardly get focused on important life activities that require serious intelligence. Most porn watchers are hardly great acheivers. They spend a great deal of their thinking on the various porn scenes they have watched.

6.Sex Mind casting. This is a scenario whereby men or women cast their mind off the immediate enviroment during sex. It happens a lot to people who had a great sexual experience with their ex. You can be making love to your wife or your husband and his or her mind is cast on that beautiful ex he or she had a great sexual experience and as such sees the ex on the ongoing action.
Same happens to porn addicted people. Imagine being on top of your wife with your pot belly
and her mind is on that 6 packs IndecentStar she watched on porn movie.Imagine your husband on top of you with flat boobs while he is thinking of the apple breasts of the IndecentStar he watched. Porn kills sexual enjoyment between couples. be warned.

7. Lust. Porn induces a high incidence of lust. Lust distracts attention and is very dangerous. This is why you have all manner of sexual harrasements. This is why you see some shameful sexual acts including act of pedofiles.
Boss on employee, lecturer chasing after students. Things can hardly be obtained on merit. Its all about bottom power. You may miss you entitle ment to that girl using seduction to steal opportunity meant for you. porn is bad.
Dont encourage it.

8. Infidelity. Infidelty has lead to the crash of many marriages. The devil that instituted porn is purposely targeting the family. It is mainly trying to destroy the family. Porn addicts are liable to divorce. This is the devils plan and through porn, he succeeds. He succeeds in littering the soceity with many bastards. Many children with no parental upbringing which leads to many criminals.
This is his plan. He has instituted porn on music, on videos, even on adverts. You can hardly escape it. All it wants is to target and destroy many families. Be warned.

Finally, to avoid porn, as much as possible stop being in secluded places. Reduce the ammount of secular musics videos u watch. Those musics are the first energizer to porn and this is mainly their purpose. Pray hard to be delivered and make promises to God
to go at least a month without watching porns. Dont visit brothels when you want to drink. Reduce the quantity of alcohol you take.
Learn to spend times on youtube videos that teaches skills and do not solicit for sexual video CDs in the market.
BE WARNED!BE CAREFUL! SAVE YOURSELF A FUTURE OF REGRETS. BE WISE NOW!

Newshelm:
15-year-old Katsina housewife, Dausiya Abdulmumini, has confessed that she killed her husband, 27-year-old Saminu Usman with N40 rat poison.

Dausiya had last week, poisoned her husband, Usman and her half brother to death in Ungwar Dan Mayaki village, Bakori local government area of Katsina State.



She said she used the substance because she does not love him.



Dausiya Abdulmumini alongside other suspects arrested for various forms of crimes and criminal offence were paraded by the State Commissioner of Police, CP Besen Gwana at the police headquarters over the weekend.



Dausiya confessed to have murdered her husband, Usman, after adding poisoned substance in the dish she served him.



Her half brother, Muhammad Dasa also died after eating the left over poisoned meal.



However, her 23-year-old sister-in-law, Shafa’atu Usman, who ate three spoons of the dish, luckily survived the incident.



Dausiya said she committed the act because she was forced to marry Saminu whereas she was in love with someone else.

The Church of Jesus is going through all these because She is the solution to the world's crises in this End-Time.
Satan knows that and provoked people like FREEZE to put more pressure on Her.

Still, the Word is True and Lasting: UPON THIS ROCK, I'LL BUILD MY CHURCH AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL.

capital fool
freez is your night mere

emusmithy:
The underlying voice behind TAP Challenge is demonic.

Listen People: Your tithe goes to your local assemblies. The Pastor who blesses you gets it.

-I use Scriptures and powerful anecdotes

The first and the last times the word 'tithe' was mentioned in the Bible was on same scenario: MELCHIZEDEK and ABRAHAM.

Genesis 14:1-7 and Hebrews 7:1-9

In Summary: ABRAHAM had just returned from the war he went to fight with his armed trained men. He saw a Man named Melchizedek, who BLESSED him. Immediately, Abraham gave him tithe of all.


So simple. The Man Of God who blesses you spiritually deserves your tithe.
Abraham became great. He was blessed by a 'greater'- Melchizedek; Servant of the Most High God.

Chew on that.

Leave Us The Sheeples (LUTS) Campaign.

so abraham became great after tithing..then God who promised to make him Father of all nation is a lier naaaa...

"Leave Us The Sheeples (LUTS)" Campaign: By Emusmithy


The essence of this thread isn't to make anyone believe in the POWER and PURPOSE of TITHING. Mba!


It's to reveal to the entire followers of Freeze that they are only fighting a lost battle.


WHY WE TITHE:

Malachi 3:8-10 says so all about it. You can look it up Bible students.

Did Jesus personally command it? Oh yeah. He said, 'I have come to FULFIL THE LAW' not to abolish it. The law of Tithing, inclusive.


Freeze Vs Judas Is Carriot

The TAP(Tithe Against Poverty) Challenge didn't start today.

Jesus was going to be crucified. Mary Magdalene bought very expensive perfume to rub on His feet. JUDAS IS CARRIOT STOOD AND SAID, "MASTER, Men of God shouldn't be allowed to use such expensive perfs(cars, jets, suits, accessories, universities etc) Let's sell it and give to the poor. JESUS SAID, LEAVE HER ALONE JUDAS. YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE POOR WITH YOU. Most importantly, the BIBLE that searches the heart revealed, HE SAID THIS NOT BECAUSE HE CARED FOR THE POOR but because HE WAS A THIEF!

My people, Scripture is been fulfilled before your very eyes. Is this not same thing FREEZE is doing? He is a thief, biblically speaking.

To his followers: HAS Freeze RECENTLY GIVEN TO THE POOR AND THEN LET US KNOW? Or is he broke? A leader should lead by example na.


To his followers:

- Is there anyone (strong believer) you know who has stopped tithing because of Freeze? Let's see the person otherwise you're wasting Precious MB.


- If you were not tithing before, you haven't been scammed. Why are you bothered about US SHEEPLES that have been scammed and loving it.


- Are you now too concerned and caring about us SHEEPLES? WE ARE OKAY THE WAY WE ARE.


TO ALL TITHING and "soon-to-be" TITHERS in all these local assemblies:

-Living Faith Church
-Christ Embassy
-Hilltop Church
-RCCG
-Dominion City
-Apostolic
-Catholic
-Coza
-House on the Rock
-Anglican
-OFM
-MFM
-CHURCH OF CHRIST etc.


For once, LET'S TELL FREEZE AND HIS FOLLOWERS TO "Quit Ranting", THAT WE ARE HAPPY TO BE CALLED "SHEEPLES".


'Their Painment'

- Men of God, anointed vessels whom God called out of their comfort zones are doing well financially and fulfilling Scripture that says...


Psalms 89:27
Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.


The unusual authority and influence these men have is a concern to the devil and the 'kings of the earth.'- the naysayers.


BUT THAT'S ONLY THE BEGINNING. WHY?


Isaiah 2:2
And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house (The CHURCH) shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills (THE WORLD SYSTEM); and all nations shall flow unto it.

They'll soon flow into it- they're just making shakara. They want to know what is responsible for our influence but too proud to admit.


#droppen.


- LIKE and SHARE IF YOU ARE A TITHER and won't quit for no internet rant because you know how far He has taken you from grass to GRACE via your covenant practice.




- LEAVE US THE SHEEPLES (LUTS) CAMPAIGN!!!


I was born a sheeple...
I didn't choose my people
Can a sheep bark, out?
Like you want us to back out?

It's effortless! LUTS Campaign!

This is our voice!

fineboynl:
when the police or EFCC sent invitation to anyone and the individual refuse to honor the invitation. the EFCC or police has no right to issue arrest to person like innoson in the manner they did. what they need is seek for arrest warrant from a court/AGF. the AGF should then assign arrest warrant to innoson after going through the charges.
and if the charges don't deserve arrest it will be trash by the court.
and instead advise they send him court letter.

the fact innoson is not a criminal and doesn't pose any threat to the public, what the EFCC should have done is to present the arrest warrant to innoson. having go through the validation of the warrant by then innoson can decide to follow them.

as it stand there are no arrest warrant as the AGF just confirm that he was not aware. the case will cost the EFCC big shame.

"An arrest warrant is an official document, signed by a judge (or magistrate), which authorizes a police officer to arrest the person or people named in the warrant. Warrants typically identify the crime for which an arrest has been authorized, and may restrict the manner in which an arrest may be made."

According to a statement issued on Wednesday by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Interior, Abubakar Magaji, the minister also called upon Nigerians to strengthen their resolve to maintain peace and unity in Nigeria.

Dambazau further urged all Nigerians, both at home and abroad, to support the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari in its determination in improving the quality of life of Nigerians.

He wished Nigerians a Happy Christmas and New Year celebrations.

nwakibie3:
The Senate on Wednesday resolved to wade into the arrest of the Chairman of Innoson Motors, Innocent Chukwuma, by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Mr. Chukwuma was arrested at his residence in Enugu at about 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday.

The Senate mandated its committee on anti-corruption and financial crimes to investigate the matter and report back within 24 hours.

This decision followed a point of order raised by the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.

“Yesterday I got a number of messages indicating that Mr Innocent Chukwuma was arrested by the EFCC over a transaction between him and GTB,” Mr. Ekweremadu said. “This morning I made an effort and I spoke with him, his story is straight forward, he said he was at his house at 5:00 am Tuesday morning when he heard gun shots and he thought they were assassins and so he went into hiding after about two hours he saw some police and he thought that help had come, so he came out of his hiding and ran to the police man who promptly arrested him. As he was trying to find out what was his offence, they told him when they get to the police station they will inform him of the offence. As at today nobody has told him what the offence is.

“Any person who is arrested and detained should be informed reason for his arrest. As I speak Mr Innoson Chukwuma is yet to be informed of what led to his arrest or detention but if you go through the media today, the story is that he is owing GTB. As a lawyer I’m at a loss how a transaction between someone and his bank will inform the EFCC.”

“The story he told me is that he is not owing the bank anything, he borrowed money from the bank which he has since repaid but the bank kept charging money and withdrawing it from his account. They set up an audit and the auditor came to a conclusion that they had deducted more than N500 million, he was insisting on 22 percent, the bank said they will pay 17 percent so that is where they had the disagreement and they now went to court and it gave judgement in its favour at the federal high court and the court of appeal and the matter is at the supreme court. The fact that matter is in court and it was a commercial transaction gives no room for the intervention of EFCC, I’d like to appeal to this Senate to ensure that Mr Innocent Chukuwma is released promptly.”

In his contribution, Sam Anyanwu, Imo-PDP, questioned the Senate’s silence over alleged continued impunity of the EFCC.

“I want to ask a question. EFCC as it stands today, does it have a chairman? Because I knew in this chamber, the head of EFCC was rejected during screening because of poor performance and yet he has been there as chairman.

“There was a businessman from Imo State that was killed in EFCC custody. The body is still in the mortuary till today. These are the kind of things we are seeing in this country, why must we allow it to continue?

“We have been talking about promoting made in Nigeria goods. This man manufactures vehicles, he has over 5, 000 people in his employment, he has international partners. What are you projecting before them? That he is a criminal? If we as Senate allow this to continue, there is nothing else that will ever work.

“We rejected somebody here, yet he is allowed. Are there no other Nigerians who are credible to fight corruption? Every small thing, EFCC. Tomorrow, if a wife refuses to give his man sex, they will go and call EFCC. It will get to that point.”

Enyinnaya Abaribe, Abia-PDP, threw the Senate into a rowdy session when he announced that the operatives of EFCC slapped the wife of Mr. Chukwuma.

“Another incident happened in his house. The wife asked a question; why are you arresting my husband? What has happened and they slapped her.”

Bwacha Emmanuel, Taraba-PDP, said the perpetrator of such act should be fished out and punished.

“As a member of this Senate, I sponsored a motion to call for support of the anti-corruption war but as I listen to this story. If truly the wife of Innocent Chukwuma was slapped by a member of EFCC, something has to be done. Somebody must be held responsible, somebody must lose his job. Otherwise, we’ll be wasting our time here.”

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, noted that the EFCC will drag the country into ridicule if the issue is not addressed promptly.

“As a society that we are all planning, that our country to be civilised, I think this does not speak well of the country. How a private commercial transaction has now become the focus of the EFCC. I think this area is the focus. Whether he is owing or not, I think we must be seen protecting the fundamental rights of citizens. I’ve never seen when FBI interferes between City Bank and Ford Motors, or the financial crime agency in UK intervenes. We are just making a mockery of ourselves and we really should be able to do the right thing.”

The Senate resolved to intervene in the arrest of Mr. Chukwuma, while mandating its committee on anti-corruption and financial crimes to investigate the matter and report back in 24 hours.

The EFCC had on Tuesday given reasons for arresting Mr. Chukwuma.

“His arrest followed his refusal to honour invitation by the Commission having earlier jumped an administrative bail granted him in a case being investigated by the Capital Market and Insurance Fraud Unit of the Commission’s Lagos office.

“Chukwuma rather than honoring invitation by the EFCC, mobilized six truckloads of thugs pretending to be staff of his company to his residence, where they manhandled EFCC operatives,” EFCC spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, said.

President Muhammadu Buhari, in a recent interview published by the Sun revealed some personal information.

When he was asked to mention things he’s given up, Buhari said:

“I used to smoke, but of course, I abandoned it I think in 1977.

He also said he’d never had a drop of alcohol in his life.

“Even in the military tradition, how they break you in, I said well, the military did not stop anybody practising his religion. My religion said no alcohol and no alcohol. So, that was respected. I was never forced to take alcohol and I have never voluntarily taken it because I want to remain alert all the time. There is a tendency that when you drink, you would want to have a bottle more, or a glass more and do something stupid.


“I also thought women ought to have taken more interest in me but I don’t know why they didn’t. I must have something they didn’t like. I assure you of that. I didn’t drink, I smoked, I had girlfriends; it was true.”

Osinbajo: Buhari and I poorly paid
Posted By: Augustine Ehikioya, On: December 19, 2017

The President’s and the Vice-President’s pay is low, Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo said yesterday.

He criticised the private sector for not respecting the national minimum wage law, which puts the lowest pay at N18,000.

Speaking at the end-of-year seminar of the State House Press Corps at the old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Prof. Osinbajo said he earns about N1.5m as Vice-President; President Buhari earns about N1.75 million.

To him, the pay is not commensurate with the offices they occupy.



The vice president also expressed misgivings about the remuneration of journalists and lawyers, saying journalists’ case is unique because many media owners make big revenue but simply refuse to pay good wages.

He recalled his brief encounters working with media houses as legal adviser and how in all the months he worked he was not paid despite the irregular hours he put in.

Osinbajo spoke of entry into journalism as not rigorously regulated or enforced by professional bodies because untrained persons are allowed in.

He added: ”I realised first of all that this (journalism) is not a profession from which one could make a decent living in the first place unless you find a really good way of doing so.

”But more importantly for me is that you are just on your own. Journalism as a profession is so wide open.

”There are a few reasons in my view why remuneration is poor.



”The first is that it is just simply cheating. There are owners of media that are just cheats. They just want to get something from nothing and that is not uncommon, it is a general malaise, it is not necessarily restricted to the media.

”It is also the same in the legal profession. There many lawyers if they tell you what they earn, you will certainly not want to be a lawyer.

”The private sector does not respect the minimum wage. Even if a minimum wage is set nationally, it is not necessarily respected by the private sector and this is something that should be factored in to the status of a company and whether a company is even complying with the requirements.”

The Vice-President urged journalists to brighten their prospects and future by always seeking ways of improving themselves and getting better job opportunities with attendant improved income.

Nasarawa State Governor Tanko Al-Makura, represented by the Commissioner for Information, Mohammed Kwara, was the chairman of the ceremony.

He said: “It is important to note that a good retirement plan starts the very day you are employed, knowing that whatever has a beginning has an end; 35 or 60 mandatory years of service are certainly not eternity.

”It must also be stressed here that it is not too late to plan even where you have just few years to retire from service.

”The most important thing is that you have a plan either of money saved or of the job you intend to carry on after retirement. Put every other factor in place such as your age, strength and the mental capacity to carry on.” he advised.

He added “It is important to state, therefore, that the uncertainty on payment of entitlements has continued to worry Nigerian workers, making them fear retirement.

”This has led to prospective retirees falsifying their age just to enable them stay put in the service.

”In this regard, a lot of corruption induced activities have continued to infiltrate the MDAs and the organised private sector responsible for managing pension,” he said.

Kwara listed 10 ways to prepare for retirement, including saving, knowing your retirement needs and contributing to an employer’s retirement savings plan.

Others, according to him, are learning about employer’s pension plan, considering basic investment principles, not touching your retirement savings, asking employer to start a plan, think of creative ways to be self sustaining, find out about one’s social security benefits, and asking questions.

The guest lecturer and Chairman of Elumelu Foundation, Tony Elumelu, said retirement should not be synonymous with being tired or giving up as it should be a stepping stone.

He advised working journalists to pursue their purposes with passion, stressing the need to increase capacity in readiness for the next phase

He said: “Entrepreneurship is not a function of age. Set your milestones and work towards accomplishing the milestone.

”Entrepreneurs are resilient; they persevere to succeed. You don’t need to give up easily, it requires sacrifice, discipline.”

Others who presented goodwill messages were Minister of Information Lai Mohammed; Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi and Special Adviser (Media & Publicity) to the President Femi Adesina.

I pick this spot because this days, whenever the Church of Christ is mentioned, that is when you'll start seeing all kinds of comments and opinions even from folks who don't even read their Bible talk more of understanding the Letter and the Rhema revelations therein.

For the record, I'm not a pastor! I'm a Child of God who get so bitter in my spirit whenever I see people criticize a foundation that have existed long before their greatest great grand father was born in the name of knowledge

It came to pass one day, John the beloved walk up to Jesus and told him; “Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.”

I would expect Jesus to ask; who is he, is he a drunkard, a womanizer, a worldly musician or a Reggae Artist?. But He never asked that. He simply said; No, “Do not stop him...,” and in the next verse Jesus said: for whoever is not against us is for us. Why because, whoever he is and whatsoever he does is inconsequential. But what matter most is the fact that he is not against us

Now to Daddy FRZ and any christian or so called bloggers or writers on this thread or out there, who look for every single opportunity to criticize the church or give room for criticism on the church through any means, either by supporting or broadcasting critic writings and materials against the body of Christ. YOU ARE AGAINST CHRIST, and I can tell you with all assurance that if you are against Christ, He will be against you!

Read it Again: for whoever is not against us is for us

That prostitute or worldly artist you are criticizing the church for, is far better than you doing the critics, read it again: for whoever is not against us is for us

....on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. The Church has been matching, long before FRZ was born, and it will keep matching on even after his death.

And I tell you if you people and your father FRZ did not repent, miserable death await all of you criticizing the church, for I tell all of you the days of Korah, Dathan and Abiram is here, and if you people don't repent, the misery of Korah, Dathan and Abiram will be your portion.
