Gombs: Divinity at Work in You-Thursday, September 11th.

Pastor Chris

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.(John 10:10).

Everyone born into the world is born with the natural human life. Man, however, is a spirit being and needs the supernatural life to function to his full potentials. That’s the reason Jesus came to give us another kind of life—the God-kind of life. Anyone that has received Jesus as Lord has this life (1 John 5:11). The Apostle John, emphasizing this, declared, “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13).

Please no one born into this world was born a natural human life. All born into this world were born with Gods life. The gift of God are without repentance. Everyone of us threw the life of God in us away as did Adam.

hungryboy: Even one of their branches here in calabar had a miracle crusade and paid some area boys to play blind and crippled,
guys were paid 3k for the job,
Christianity is a joke.

Bros Christianity is not a joke, what you saw there was not Christianity

chiomen: ABIA BEFORE AND ABIA AFTER - MAKING COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS

Stop this nonsense, there is no basis of comparison between both. T. A. Orji is majoring on house construction while Orji Uzo majored on road construction. If your measuring the governor base on the houses his building, then you need a trip to umudike and see what Prof. Edoga is doing there is not far from Ahieke.

I assess T. A. Orji on more important things than building houses.

barryzkween: I can' t believe human beings are admitted in this kind of place. Please the governor of Abia State need to attend to this or rather close down this hospital especially during this Ebola period. See more horrible photos here

http://kweenyetty..com/2014/09/chai-naija-is-this-really-abia-state.html

I wonder if you have ever lived in a boarding school or hostel. The govt. are not to clean your toilet or environment. Do you even know the function of a governor. Most of us are ignorant of the function of a governor, local govt chairman etc.

DickDastardly: I have always known that and she's just 14yrs. She will always find excuses to get privately close with adult males. The family is close to me. The Dad works in Abuja and only visit bi-weekly. She has even tried to seduce me on many occasions by getting half nude while privately with me and i will always discourage her. I know that most boys in the street has done her. She's always buying postinor at the street drug store. I know this cause the chemist guy is another of my friend's tenant. Infact its an open secret in my street that she's the hood's cum dump.
Now the Dad got tired of it all and wants to disown her as last resort but sought my advice before he takes his final decision. He has already brutalized her because of this on several occasions, but that seems to spur her on the more.
Is it possible that she's possessed? Or is it that she inherited this, as her mom is another case study in that regard. I just feel for this honest gentle man friend of mine. As he hardly looks at anything in skirt.
How can his daughter's case be reversed? Are there drugs for nympphos. Or operations that can change this ugly and terrifying condition of hers.
URGENT ADVICE PLEASE!

Try changing her mentality by stopping her from feeding on indecent information to decent information.

erinolu: What is he campaigning for......TAN??

Abia State government invited them to Nigeria.

ochejoseph: Its Nice to see him in Nigeria

Nigeria is a great Country , Land of great opportunities!

When you visit the arrival lounge of any of our international Airports you will appreciate how important Nigeria is to foreigners!

Despite the threat of Boko haram and Ebola foreign investors , A-class celebrities , and top quality industrialist are trooping In daily !

Nigerians,

We must believe in our selves

We must begin to channel our potentials in the right direction

We must stop hating and start thinking positively and acting positively

If we unite and work together I foresee Americans Queuing up at our embassies to get a Nigerian Visa !

May God bless you for reading this post and may God Bless our Great country Nigeria www..twitter.com/ochejoseph

hahahahahaha, no be for Abia state dey?

egift: PDP fabricating News like popcorn. It is the PDP that is intensifying efforts against Buhari. The nest of killers are just afraid of going to jail and having all their loots confiscated.

Sadly their hungry agents are all over the place screaming as if their Breakfast depends on it.

No Nigerian president in a democratic setting can put a common governor in prison with due democratic process which will never be possible till his 8 years expire. So grow out of your military regime mentality. We are in democracy. Just saying, should the president turn to a bad guy tomorrow.

ElvisAghamomwom: thank you bros

Your welcome

ElvisAghamomwom: i use Agent, the guy has travel to belize.

You don't need anyone, you will see other new comers to the country.

its just like going to a new state

donmix: Abagworo u have done well, I didn't open this thread to praise orji..... We all know how bad aba is rite now, am only trying show some nairalanders that they are still good places in abia state! Meanwhile come 2015, there will be a tremendous change... As my fellow abains have waken up

Guy you dey mind all these computer politicians in Nigeria. Abia State can hold its own among the 10 best developing states in Nigeria. Do you know we have stinking places in Lagos, Abuja, Akwa Ibom etc. That one decided to post pictures of beautiful does not mean there are no ugly places and vise versa. This the problem with Nigeria. We love promoting our ugliness rather than our beauty. We love what America say of us than what we say of ourselves.

Taking about BH, we love all the bad news than any good news we can hear. This kind of lifestyle is retrogressive rather than progressive.

The Op did not even post enough pictures. If I was still in the east, even the Aba they are making noise about have beautiful places. That you live in a slum in Aba does not mean everyone lives in a slum.

We must try to support the government in moving the Nation forward rather than backward. I have come to discover that our ignorance is largely due to lack of understanding in the area the government is heading. When T. A. Orji wanted to move the Umuahia market we fought against it with all we had, but now are we not enjoying it.

Talking of Aba, to clean up Aba means a well planned drainage system. Which when Orji Uzo Kalu saw what it will take to achieve such he abandoned the project. Those making noise Aba, Aba, do you know how many people in Aba that are blocking the Aba drainage system because of what they will lose in term of infrastructure.

He will sue if boko haram leader will be the witness

ElvisAghamomwom: Please, i will be traveling to China, on Business Visa, i am a Nigeria-Guinea Bissau, Please i need Guys to hook up with. i have enough BTA, just that i have no one, to receive me, please my fellow Nija boys, Please i need to hook up with people to show me the way, i am coming from Trinidad and Tobago, i use Guinea Bissau Passport.

I also want to know, if i can use china visa to visit Hong kong, Please, Guys i need your respond, i also have Philippine expired Visa.

Please guys help your Benin boy.

When you were processing your visa, who gave you an invitation letter?

omobajohn58: Luke 22:3 :Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot,being of the number of the twelve....
It can be inferred that the betrayal is not really judas' free will....

Demons don't possess people without their invitation.

stanchris4reality: This has been very confusing and I was arguing it with a fellow Christian.
Was Judas destined by God to betray Jesus or was it from his free will that he chose to do that?
I want to know if his betrayal was the will of God for him to do such bad thing.

Judas was not destined to betray Jesus as Esau was not destined to loose the promise of having Abraham's blessing. This free will thing is greatly misunderstood.

When a man set out on a journey, without any unforeseen circumstance he will arrive at his destination. This statement can be interpreted as, "whatsoever a man sow, that he shall reap". or "do unto others as you will have them do unto you".

In Judas case, it is recorded that he had the habit of stealing from the church treasury under Jesus. Every thief has a destination, irrespective of the place the robbery took place. Judas reached his at Jesus betrayal. When you plant a corn and water it day in day out and you pray it does not bear fruit. Eyaa, sorry at the appointed time it must bear fruit.

Many people will end as Judas, because they have taking to the path Judas took. Prayers will not save them. What will save them is a change of course.

Judas betrayal of Jesus started the day he started stealing from Jesus.

I can't name one. Any time I pick up the word, I discover something beautiful to hold onto.

Beckybeky: So what exactly is she driving at?

I think she needs her husband by her side like any normal married woman.

This is a common knowledge for bible students. The water that swallow the first world had a part coming from the depth of the earth while the other from heaven in Noah's time.

Strongfaze: 13 MOST DANGEROUS DEMONS
Demonic possession is no laughing matter – but if you find yourself pitted against one of the 13 most dangerous demons in Hell, watch out! Blackman and Martin are 2 of them.
Anton Szandor LaVey, the former High Priest of the Church of Satan, listed the most powerful of Lucifer’s minions in his notorious book, The Satanic Bible.
“Theologians have cataloged some of the names of devils in their lists of demons, but the roster which follows contains the names most effectively used in Satanic ritual,” wrote LaVey, known to his followers as The Black Pope.
In addition to what he called the “crown princes” of Hell (Satan, the fallen angel Belial and the destructive sea monster Leviathan) LaVey lists other vicious demons who also occupy the “Royal Palace of Hell.”
Here are the 13 of the worst:
ASMODEUS– The orgy-loving ancient Hebrew devil of sensuality.
ASTAROTH– Female demon worshipped by the Phoenicians as the goddess of lasciviousness.
AZAZEL– The demon who taught man to make weapons of war and introduced women to cosmetics.
BALAAM- Hebrew devil of avarice and greed.
BEHEMOTH– Devil said to take the form of a monstrous elephant.
BEEZLEBUB– Disgusting and repulsive Lord of the Flies.
BILE– Eons-old Celtic god of Hell.
CIMERIES– Demon who rides a black horse and rules Africa.
COYOTE- American Indian devil.
DAMBALLA– Evil Voodoo serpent god.
DAGON– Philistine avenging devil of the sea.
MORMO– King of the Ghouls and chief consort of Hecate, the Greek goddess of the underworld and witchcraft.
MICTIAN– Worshiped by the Aztecs as the god of Death

Dear brethren, we need to be steadfast against these demons by putting on the FULL ARMOR OF CHRIST. And with the grace of God we will conquer! Happy new Month.

There is no strong demon or weak christian.

Cherechy: This topic is totally random. I was just wondering why we close our eyes when we pray. It has been instilled in me right from sunday school to always close my eyes. I think d reason then was to prevent distraction, esp as children. Now that i'm all grown up does that still apply? Is it a biblical injunction or something? Cos whenever my eyes are open during prayers, i feel a lil guilty.
So my question is, as christians is it mandatory to close our eyes when in prayer.
BTW cud u also touch a little on covering of hair 4 women as well. Thanks

We close our eyes to concentrate, it is not an obligation. Most occassions I don't close mine eyes. Most times I don't even pray to be heard by the nearest person.

bdchange: please endeavour to use your discretion in answering these questions. I have read the bible and chose not to believe every words my pastor told me if it doesn't correlate with my understanding. The bible says no one goes to the father except through me ( i.e jesus if am ryt). Now we are been told to accept christ in our lives if we want to go to heaven. My problems comes from what will happpen to our forefathers who did not even know christ because christ wasn't preached to them. will they still be guilty of this statement? what of our muslims brothers and sisters that don't believe that christ died for them. Yet they believe in God and serve him in the best possible ways deem fit to serve him. If the missionaries never brought religion to us here in africa. Then me and you will still be worshipping idols or serving God in our own way. Even majority will then agree that God doesn't exist. So if we follow these trends of christ after the new testament then i wonder who and what will make heaven? Now forget what your pastors and imams has ever told you. just stick to your own understand and tell me who you think will make heaven and your sincere reasons for that before i get myself confused. peace be unto you All.

Did Abraham etc made heaven? Merci and Ronaldo have made every player insignificant in the football scene, so it will be at the end. Only a few among the contenders will be welcomed home.

Before a law is made those outside the law are judge on the basis of the law that existed in their time. Those who live in a new law era are judge by the new law (spiritual or physical)

Eden007: Lord restore my faith because these
people that say they are your men are
really eroding my faith like a typhoon. i
don’t know who and what to believe
again. how do i even know You are the
One who says what they say You say?
Oyedepo slapped a poor woman and
bragged about it, Okotie keeps
changing wives like vulcanizers change
tyres on road sides, T.B, Adeboye et
cetera et cetera and now Pastor Chris.
How are the mighty fallen? The church
is now all about private jets, bugattis,
lambos, ferraris, hectares of land,
private schools, private hospitals,
private anointing, family cartels and
dynasties of succession, child abuse,
child molestation, den of pedophiles,
wicked and unreasonable political
affiliations, religious showmanship and
stagemanship, rosaries and litanies of
ungodly awesome escapades. Now i
cant even go to church, sit down and
listen to them because my gut feeling
is always telling me that they are lying,
that their lives are nothing but
smokescreens and that they are
maintaining double standards. Jesus
help me because I have lost faith
through these men.

Jesus said tarry ye at Jerusalem till you are filled with the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit is the teacher we need. Any christian who is no filled with the Holy Spirit is not yet a christian. Forget the acting your seeing, God knows His people.

Largas: Like I said Mr. Tackle your problems and don't get ashamed of them. I wonder how you face your problems in real life when you are ashamed of them.

If Nigeria should face her problems and solve them. I bet you would be proud to be from the most populous black country.
Stop advising people to be ashamed of what's got a solution.

Your another great man am encountering in mine life time, am privileged.

overhypedsteve: foolish person, even obama himself will be surprised that you as a nigerian would quote such a negative comment about your nation. Predicating your patriotism based on the opinion of another nations leader, ask yourself this questions
1. Is obama the president of nigeria?
2. Would he have said that if he was the president of nigeria?
3.does obama as the president of US have the best interest of nigerians as his sole responsibility?
If you can understand that, then maybe you will see why you have to be more conceit in your criticism of this great leviathan of a nation.

To the OP, if the egyptians can be proud of an ancient rock tomb and have immortalised it with their love and respect for it,
if the saudi arabians can be proud of the tomb of mohammed, founder of a religion that now torture the world.
If the indians can be proud of their culture and hindu religion
and the brasilians proud of a large unexplored mat of riverine forest (half the size of europe), and their statute of christ the redeemer,
if the germans can be proud of their racial uniqueness and industrialization.
Only a fool will not be proud of his nation as the largest black nation on earth, that has survived in a continent were so many others have failed. Boasting of the richest branch of african culture known to man. Only an uncivilised thrump, would rely on physical edifice to make him proud of his mother land, my OP, there can never be two great black nations on earth, there can only be nigeria(your motherland

I have never in mine life felt how am feeling for reading this. I love you man. Your not only a Nigerian, but a Nigerian who believe in Nigeria. Your like are the leaders the Nigerian citizenry are crying for.

edozie04: Shoprite of all placesI swear him pocket go don empty finish b4 e propose

Hmm, shoprite is the best place to buy the things of quality at the cheapest rate (i.e cheaper than the road side shop), try it.

bizngr: Yes, I am... Thank you so much.


Hurricane Nairaland took most of my followers and threads away.

Eya, you will get more followers and thread if you don't give up. Your site looks great I love it. More inspiration to your creativity.

Chinom: Why does he want to open a school in UK ? !!. There is a lot to do in Nigeria that will help the common man. Has this man ever thought of opening a factory?.

I just don't like his philosophy.

You don't go to business you cannot run. You can fill that vacuum.

mirob: This verse is confusing, I will bless who I want to bless and show mercy upon who I will show mercy. Also it is not he that runneth, it is God that showeth mercy. I don't understand it, does it mean that we should stop praying and stressing our selves because all efforts will be in vain if God does not decide to bless and show us mercy.

This verse means if your not in good terms with God your effort will be wasted. But if you are in God standing with God, your little effort will produce great result.

But there must be effort on your part not necessarily prayers.

PastorKun: There is not one single verse in the whole bible that requires tithes of christians. Church tithing today is derived from fraudulent manipulation of scriptures by mis applying scriptures asking Israelites to tithe of their farm produce to mean christians should tithe of their income. This is a classic case of twisting scriptures. Christians are not under the law, tithe was a practise under the law and the law was brought to an end with the death and resurrection of christ.

If Christians are not under the law, why do people get pissed off when a Christian brother pregnants a sister outside wedlock?

When temptations l have not conquered come, there is a word of God to deal with it.

musKeeto: When has the fear of God or acknowledgment of him made any man good? David knew and feared God. God even referred to him as the apple of his eyes. But he murdered, killed, schemed..

Samson, Solomon, Muhammed, ISIS, Boko harma, Al Qaeda and the rest of dem crazy fellas all believed and acknowledged God. Nigerian politicians, leaders, civil workers all subscribe to one God or another. How has that made them more accountable to the well being of the people whom they are supposed to serve? Are they all atheists too? A bad apple isn't less of an apple than a good apple. They are both still apples. You don't call a bad apple a mango.. that's just silly..


To be godly is not to be good. To be godly is to put God above all else, doesn't matter if it's a dying kid or a hungry and poor congregation. God is all that matters to the God-believer, and whatever nonsense he says is always right.

What does it me to put God first in what one does? according to your write up.

Allow me to say something. In that dialogue between Nicodemus and Jesus, Jesus pointed out that it is spirit and water that borns one again. John 1:12-13 shows it is God that do the birthing.
I believe, there is a difference between being born again and being saved. It is by trusting in Christ we are saved and when we begin to do God's will, will He give birth to us with his seed in us.
