You got that Bible verse completely right, but it goes beyond me many at times how you people manage to ignore even the Bible u quote.
The Bible made it clear that several people and angels even devil were referred to as gods. God means sombody Devine and/or powerful. The verse 9 of the Hebrew you quoted like John, mentioned 2 (not even 3) gods...it then however and rather gloriously said THEREFORE GOD, YOUR GOD AS ANOINTED (which means appointed/mandated/honor) YOU...
See the almighty God, the supreme, anoited this mighty god Jesus.
Like Jehovah God was a God to the mighty god Jesus, he is to us the one and only Almighty God. The absolute, the God we alone together with other lesser powerful beings (gods) including Jesus worship. No other God can be worshiped though there are countless others.
That's why Exodus said Jehovah YOUR GOD oh Israel is one Jehovah.

That same Hebrew chapter 1 clearly stated that Almighty GOD called none but Jesus Christ 'GOD'. My brother, on what basis should we argue further? Remember, it was written in quotes to buttress the fact that Almighty GOD is speaking.
We are not the author. We met the holy book and believe. So it is an undermine to our integrity to argue the obvious written and established facts.
Meanwhile, I acknowledge your contributions because it really shaped our learning and knowledge.

Be careful of the antics of Satan. The majority of Christendom claims Trinity is the corner Stone of their faith. But the Bible made us know that the majority of Christendom will perish. In and amonst them is the fulfilment of false doctrines that will arise.
Jesus cried, prayed to God (God never prayed to anybody), wished the cup of death could be taken away, DIED literally and to all purpose (else his sacrifice would have been a scam and inadequate, for somebody sinless must die to save the world) but God never sleeps or slumper, lacks the knowledge of the exact time of the end ( if he were in God, won't he naturally have that knowledge?), He didn't leave us in doubt when he said he was sent and he is lesser than God the sender, he also said he is ascending to God is Lord our Lord is God our God (no minscing words about the relationship even as it applied to we humans, moreover when Stephen was dying, in fulfillment of a prophesy didnt see one person with three heads in heaven but saw Jesus sat beside God in glory, a distinct entity even in heaven. Revelation buttressed this when he said Jesus like a slain lamp, took his sacrifice and presented it before God in heaven.
Nobody can see the almighty God and live, but many people have seen the mighty god Jesus, touched him and even at least on one occasion kissed him. Hallelujah

For clarification, Jesus Christ was on earth to fulfill a mission. Never to express or manifest His GOD nature. He chose part of humility.
Read Hebrew 1:1-14.
According to the scripture, Hebrew 1:8&9, Almighty GOD called Jesus Christ, 'GOD'.
Below is my reference:
Hebrews 1:8-9
[8]But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
[9]You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”
This is not my claim. It is biblical text. Everyone can read and understand. If Almighty GOD could exalt Jesus Christ to the position of calling Him 'GOD', who am I not to call Jesus Christ 'GOD'?
{If I got it wrong, please redirect or clarify}

MrPRevailer:
Jesus is God

QED!
Bible stated and clarified so.
Read Hebrew chapter 1 : 1 - 14 comprehensively.
I lay emphasis on verse 8 and 9.
{Hebrews 1:8-9
[8]But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
[9]You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”}
When words are written in quotes, we know what it implies, who is speaking, who is referring and who is being directed to.
Please, let us read and become wiser.

Who builds a house? The laborers or the contractor directing them. The Bible is clear in the new testament, I think Corinthians that God created all things but through Jesus. God created Jesus directed, however he used him to create all other things. Proverbs 8 made us understand better that Jesus was a chief worker besides God. God it's obvious is the grand creator. Jesus made it clear every where that he is less than God, hence not a part of an triune God.
That's what the Bible expressly thought

I commend you. But I disagree with you.
My Bible rightly emphasized that Jesus Christ is GOD.
Just that Jesus Christ is embodiment of humility while physically present on it.
{if you need clarifications, I will explain with biblical facts and quotations.}

Meek and golden heart after she was called out and threatened?
I dey pity anyone wey be servant to this kind of woman,the person go dey see hell..

The deed has been done. We are looking for remedy or atonement.
This is a contest between pride and humility. She has chosen the latter and needed commendation.
Inasmuch as she erred, I totally condemned her action. Never will I justify the inglorious act, yet she felt sorry and publicly apologize.
A new leaf has germinated and we need to nurture it.
I applaud her public apology.

Honestly, it takes a meek and golden heart to publicly own up a misdeed and apologize.
I can see sincerity, and transparency in your action.
Remain bless for this rare rewriting of wrong deed.
No one is infallible. The sky is your limit.

Shut up, nobody gave Yoruba PDP ticket in 1999, it was fairly contested for by Obj and Ekuweme, the same will be done in 2023, Tinubu/Osibanjo Vs any other Southerner

Decorum and decency is priceless.
My dear, learn how to comment, react or respond in a polite way.
Must you use unpleasant words to make your point?
As for me, I wasn't brought up in such manner.

Noerection:
They hate APC in that side yet they want its presidential ticket to be given to them. Are these people normal?

Yorubas and Southwest hate PDP in 1999. Yet Presidential ticket was given to them. Obasanjo was given the ticket. Even Olu Falaye of AD was also meant to flag joint ticket of then APP and AD. irrespective of the obvious fact that APP that presented Ogbonaya Onu has more spread than AD.
We all know it was done for a reason.
So, APC and PDP presenting Igbo man or Southeast candidates in 2023 could also be necessitated for a reason. Just like in 1999 for unity sake after annulment of june 12, 1993 election. Same unity sake could be considered in 2023 owing for clamour for secession.

Except we are Gone in the Rapture,I Believe Trump will be President beyond January 20th 2021

Do not allow ignorance or naivety to override your real sense of reasoning.
Stop making mockery of GOD. The will of GOD is not the will of man.
As human, you have right on choice of candidate or support. But don't drag GOD into it. Every outcome of life has been predestined by GOD.
for instance, when arm-robber steal, maim or kill successful, it has been predestined that he will succeed irrespective of the inhuman nature of the act.
Besides, who made you judge over Trump and Biden? Why should you call one 'evil' and another 'saint'? On what basis? Have you met either of them? Are you GOD?
WHAT IF TRUMP'S REIGN DOESN'T GO BEYOND JAN. 20 2021, DOES IT PORTRAY GOD AS A LIAR OR NON EXISTING?
Be careful with your thoughts, utterances and statements with GOD'S connotations to avoid making mockery of GOD in your self-acclaimed Christianity or Righteousness.

PDP and stupidity

US government thanked Nigerian government for tactical support

The kidnapping took place in Niger Republic


This mindset of PDP always rubbishing Nigeria for political gains is why Trump would be bold enough to try remove Adesina to replace him with a US born Vice in African Development Bank,

Or why PhD holder in Development Economics, Okonjo iweala a US/ Nigerian National, former world bank Vice President would be sidelined for a South Korean MSC holder for WTO DG job by Trump





.

There is no gainsaying that Buhari is bunch of failure.
Nigeria is a mockery nation on global map.
The kidnapping happened in Niger Republic, but hostage den is in Nigeria (a peace haven for criminal activity). Northern Nigeria is synonymous to insecurity. Global hideout for criminal activity. All because of incompetent of one man that rode on CHANGE mantra, but can't change service chiefs under him. Commander-in-chief that doesn't understand his position and bearings.
My dear, accept a glaring reality.

The difference between Governor Sanwo-olu's speech and President Buhari's speech is like Luxurious bus and Keke napep. Though I'm never Sanwo-olu's fan, but he is gradually wining my heart.
Against all olds, Governor Babajide Sanwo-olu is intelligent, wise, and with astute words presentation.
I enjoined him to match his speech with action.
To all the gallant youths martyred in this struggle, MAY YOUR SOULS REST IN PEACE! Amen.
#EndSars! This generation will never forget you. We will continue our genuine struggle for good governance. I believe achieving this dream we started together will gladden your hearts and repose your souls.
Live on heroes and martyrs of our generation!

You people should stop lying on buhari head...since when did buhari start talking that he can compose all these..the buhari i know can only be shocked....

Don't mind them.
Buhari who is not aware that Boko haram are killing people in Northeast. Buhari who is not aware that Terrorist (Bandicts) are wrecking havocks in Northwest. Buhari who is not aware that Fulani herdsmen are slaughtering people in North central and southern Nigeria.
How on earth should Buhari be aware of coup in very far away Mali? Has he relocated to Mali? He only knows about events in the kitchen, living room and other room.

Compare sanity in Lagos when Br.Gen. Marwa was in charge and now that Tinubu is in charge and know if Lagos is making progress or not.
My questions are,
1. Must every educated young Lagosian indulge in 'Yahoo yahoo'?
2. Must every noneducated Lagosian indulge in 'Agbero', Alaye, thugery?
There is no gainsaying that hooliganism has taking over the day.
Put Lagos in perspective with critical observation and guess what will be the fate of Lagos in two decades away. Your guess is as good as mine.
If Lagos continue with this trend, Zamfara, Katsina and Sokoto experience will be a child's play. Please let us see the future.
He that have ear, hear me.

The bishop said , “Can anybody silence the church? Never ! I have never heard of anybody that God healed in the market but people get healed in every church day and night , real tangible healing. We have recorded 114 coronavirus healing testimonies . We got 10 this week .

https://punchng.com/lagos-ogun-now-infected-with-anti-church-virus-oyedepo/

Who am I to challenge Oyedepo's claim!
I suggest that federal isolation centre should be established in Living faith auditorium Cana land. All covid-19 patients, suspects and related cases all over the federation should be redeployed to Oyedepo's Cana land to receive this massive healing.
With this new arrangement, Nigeria will be Covid-19 free in less than a month. And many people will embrace Oyedepo's Church as the only true church nationwide.
May Oyedepo warmly accept this my proposal and NCDC endorse it!

Righteousness89:
GOD ALMIGHTY has used his Servants to Heal people. It's just that many of us decide to close our eyes..

GOD has used pastor Lazarus Muoka of the Lords Chosen to heal people . A brother in Spain in hospital bird got connected to the Ministration and got healed instantly. Testimonies also came in from London and other countries of people who got Healed from the Virus..

I saw the Testimony of someone in Canada who was Healed by Connecting to the Ministration of Bishop Oyedapo.

I heard of the woman in London whose husband had given up hope! Fortunately he got in contact with Pastor Eneche and Prayers were made and the woman was made Whole.


Only GOD can give Perfect Healing to any Diseases. Any True Doctor will tell u that.

My dear, I have been following your comments and people's reactions towards your comment.
One thing is grossly being lacked by you. For courtesy sake, I will not mention that 'one thing'.
Be mindful that no one has doubted or debunked existence and supernatural power of Almighty GOD base on all the comments made so far in reacting to your posts on this thread.
Inasmuch as you have been trying to defend yourself, you keep on shooting yourself on the foot more and more. Go through all those instances you mentioned above as I quote, all of the COVID-19 miracles happened outside the shores of Nigeria but fantastically triggered by Nigeria pastors. Base on your instances, non of the miracle recipient attended their churches before the miracles where perfected.
It depends on the god you are serving, your god might be dwelling only in your church. But my own GOD is omnipresent. My GOD's presence is felt everywhere. My Lord JESUS CHRIST never asked people to troop to Jerusalem temple for miracles. Non of the apostles or disciples advocated for such. Even a Centurion servant was healed by mere pronunciation of prophetic words by JESUS CHRIST on the road.
you are talking of pastors that always call for monetary donations or special offerings as solution for their financial needs like acquisition of houses, vehicles or even private jets in the name of evangelical needs, but will always profer prayers, biblical quotations and further extortions from their followers in the name of special seeds, tithe and offerings for members who have financial needs like paying house rent, school fees or setting up business.
If I should ask, all those schools, land properties, jets etc who owns them? Of what benefit are the schools, jets, vehicles etc are to you as a stake holder that contributed money for the establishments and acquisitions. Are there any accountability to them? Who consume the tithe and sundry offerings? Who account for it? What were biblical teaching concerning tithe? What did the bible said about the Levite's? Are they eligible to own any property? Is tithing meant for Christians (religion and followers of Christ) or Judaism (Jewish Religion)? Do you know that the bible forbade payment of tithe with money. For reference purpose, read Deuteronomy chapter 14 from verse 22 to 29 for more insight on biblical directives concerning tithe. This verse will enlighten you more on tithe.
{If churches reopen today and expected money is not coming owing to shutdown of economy, pastors will be the frontrunners agitating for opening of markets and sundries shouting that people are dying of hunger in order to open the economy to facilitate fattening of their pockets as usual}.

BOOZELEE:
The Lockdown should continue but they should let children go back to school since the disease hardly kill children.

Children are too exposed to serve as carriers. The can easily get infected from their fellow children and transfer to their vulnerable adults or parents.
Opening schools still pose a very big risk on this pandemic.

This is what you get when you are being ruled by APC - All Progressive Confusionists. No synergy. Everything in disarray.
It is evidently that APC cannot reason together.
Can Nigeria make progress with this disorderliness we are witnessing in government?
Man made disasters like herdsmen killings, boko haram, bandictary etc. APC cannot address. Now natural disaster in form of Covid-19, APC control government is in total disarray. Lockdown modality in chaos. Implementation of palliative measures in shamble. Conducting of corona test child's play. Treatment of patients great joker. Health facility a mirrage.
Let us activate our reasoning.

Success can never be achieved without sincerity of purpose.
I tell you most solemnly, I will hardly believe the resolution of this APC led government war against Boko haram.
Of a truth, approach of Nigerian soldiers toward civilian citizens left much to be desired. For instance, if soldiers were deployed to curb arm robbery and kidnapping, they will be maltreating members of the said community with impunity. Sighting a young guy sipping ice cream with his girlfriend in a bus stop, they will enviously summon them to humiliate the guy in presence of his girlfriend. Subjecting him to frog jumps, lying on the floor and sundries. With such attitudes, members of the community will lose confidence on them, cordial relationship is murdered and their will be no synergy to execute their mission successfully. Before you know it, members of the community will turn against them and start leaking information on soldiers activities to the miscreants. Can such be effectively achieved in such scenario? Their counterparts in other clime are always friendly to members of their host community. Winning their hearts, confidence, friendship with excessive hospitalities. With this strategy, information on miscreants or enemies are always at their doorsteps and missions are successful accomplished.
On the issue of series of ambush being laid against our soldiers, what stop our government from equipping them with aerial surveillance drones to secure their movements and activities since they are in war zone.
I insist that government of the day is using this Boko haram situation to enrich themselves. Otherwise, why such ambushes are not being laid whenever top government officials and service chiefs are visiting the war zone?
Finally, why are they releasing captured Boko haram members on whatever guise? How will Nigerians feel if Evans, the kidnapper is released tomorrow to the society as repented kidnapper?

I think it is due for Buhari to embark on routine medical trip abroad.
Maybe somebody should remind him.

Believe this regime at your own peril.
I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong in saying that human life worth nothing in Nigeria.
What has been the government commitment toward those killed by herdsmen, bandits and boko haram? What measures have they taken to improve our health sector? A country that can't boast of improved healthcare in Aso clinic. I tell you most solemnly, Buhari led government have nothing to offer. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. A government that cannot address man made disaster, how can it address natural disaster.
If not the fear of covid-19, Buhari would have embarked on medical trip.
Please everyone should take personal measures as we have been taking measures over our lives before now.

What a bunch of meddlesome interlopers & rabble rousers, are they not aware that Nigerian Government has cancelled the loan application yesterday due to the Covid 19 economic down turn ?. As a busy body you need to be current.

See their ipobian piglets followers clicking likes for misinformation & fake news. Do Google facts before you post rubbish.

Who is gullible and naive here?
This is a case of pot calling plate 'black'. Some people have allowed hatred and mediocrity to becloud their real sense of reasoning. The letter was written on '11th day of March 2020. And according to you, Nigeria federal government cancelled it yesterday (16th March 2020) and you are here bragging.
My dear, the fact that you went to school doesn't mean that you acquired the needed knowledge.

Was Jonathan a northener ? Was he not a president when Boko Haram occupied many parts of the country ? Would he have let the northerners unlawfully take arms to defend themselves ? Do u know why America would vote Trump once again ? Despite his failure to finish a group name Taliban he recently want to make peace with them ? If America failed to finish a simple group of Taliban in Afghanistan i see no reason of blaming buhari behind failure to finish Boko Haram. And no southerner can finish them in a swift because Boko Haram fights the same way Taliban does they hide in a vast jungle where they only appear suddenly to attack.

One of the most gullible comment I ever come across.
Let me awake you a bit. who is Goodluck Johnathan? He is a zoologist who was opportuned to become Nigeria president. In his human capacity as a zoologist, he can't do much to address security crisis in Nigeria.
Who is Muhammadu Buhari? He is {was} a major general in Nigeria army that once ruled Nigeria as military head of state who has been vying to rule Nigeria again since 2003. As a former head of state, he has been commenting on the state of the nation. In his human capacity as a military man {once a soldier always a soldier} we {I inclusive} elected him in 2015 to salvage our security crisis. Then we had only Boko haram. Under the watch of a general, we have herdsmen attack, banditary etc.
Now, assess Buhari on security owing to his military background, assess him on his cattle business, assess him on economy, assess him on progressive ideas, assess him on assemblage of ministers. In everything, Buhari is a failure. Buhari lacks strategy and idea. Sometimes, I wonder if Buhari was truly commissioned in Nigeria military. Probably he passed through Nigeria military but Nigeria military did not pass through him. Otherwise, where are the military experiences he acquired all those years? No wonder he has no certificate. He is only a one way traffic. I lost confidence in him since 2017. Nigeria under Buhari is heading to calamity.
What happened to Almajiri schools? Tell me who does same thing over and over again and expect different result. Can anyone mention efforts Buhari regime is making to address security crisis?
I have no apology in saying that as the name 'Pig' is synonymous to dirty, the name 'Buhari' is synonymous to failure or calamity.

And Lagos state has a senator representing Lagos West senatorial district.
Representative my foot!
Eko ni baje!
Mark my words 'APC led government will soon tell us that they are not aware that such structure exist'. Or they will blame PDP for not including it in their handover note.
May GOD bless the OP for bringing such a huge negligence to limelight.

seunmsg:
The deputy candidate should have been disqualified without touching the governor-elect. In the case of James Faleke vs Yahaya Bello, the Supreme Court agreed with APC that a dead candidate can be substituted even after the election. So, why can’t the same apply in this case?

Democracy should be about the people and not about the justices of the Supreme Court. At worst, the court should have ordered another election just like it did in Bauchi some years back when the deputy governor was disqualified. The people should be the ones deciding who rules them and not some justices somewhere.

Inasmuch as I mourn for the ill fate that befell David Lyon, let us not forget that the deputy contributed in accruing some percentage of votes to his emergence.
I opined that what affected him should equally impact on their joint ticket. That is why I personally faulted Faleke vs Bello ruling in 2016. Above all, it is high time we reform our electoral act to address all these lacunas and add credence to it.

Are we cursed? Or are we the cause?
Assuming it was a member of the first family that was abducted by Boko Haram, will she still be in captive by now? Will the war against Book Haram still be dragging till now? Will Buratai still be chief of Army staff? Will GMB enter into arms deal with US government and pay billions of dollars to be supplied in four years later. I believe that should it been the case, the right buttons would have been pressed.
What is the value of life, freedom and health of Nigerian citizen?
Of a truth, this war against Book Haram will never make a headway so long as the destiny of millions of Nigerian is still entrusted on the mindset of a person who believe that war against Book Haram is war against Northern Moslems. Someone who recently bragged that with the experience of civil war of more than fifty years ago, Boko Haram will be defeated. Someone who have so much believe in use of prison binoculars and relegate drones in this twenty first century. How can we be so primitive in reasoning at this computer age? Boko Haram is becoming more equipped with trend and our commander in chief is reflecting on experience of more than five decades ago. With all these backwardness, how can we move forward?
They are busy monitoring someone like me with their GPS on social media but cannot monitor Book Haram. Who is fooling who?
The truth is always bitter.

The guy sound like his smuggled car was forced to cough duty fees. Anyone who knows basic government procurement will tell you many times the construction of a building and it's furniture contract are awarded simultaneously, he simply is saying many things without the proper context.

If you claim custom officials are corrupt, there is no doubt that is why the government had to shut the borders but to claim customs has not improved is a deadly lie from the pit of hell, [b]we have witnessed improvement in duties collection and overall revenue generation from customs. [/b]But much has to be done in ending corruption by customs officials.

I will never be deceived by numerous lies from APC led government.
IMPROVEMENT ON CUSTOM REVENUE GENERATION, IMPROVEMENT ON JAMB/UTME PROCEEDS, IMPROVEMENT ON FIRS GENERATION, IMPROVEMENT ON TAX GENERATION, LOTS OF LOOTED FUNDS RECOVERED etc. Yet we kept on borrowing money to fund budgets and sundries.
My question remains WHERE ARE THE MONEY?
