cold: JoAgbaje's topic posted yesterday the 21st of August claiming to heal an Ebola victim was removed from this site to save unsuspecting,simple minded folks from falling prey to this scam artist masking as an MOG. This is a step in the right direction.
There's a need to clean this augean stable of con men like JoAgbaje claiming to heal all forms of diseases and perform all kinds of miracles and where possible,report them to the appropriate authorities.
Mr Jo you should be ashamed of yourself trying to take advantage of a tragic situation to prey on gullible and pliable folks. You couldn't sink any lower even if you tried. Thank goodness the admin/mods saw through your shenanigans and put your thread where it rightfully belongs.

nora544: Admin please bann this man he is dangerous!

That is the same the herbalist in siera leone make when she told her comunity that she can heal Ebola!

Today is a miraculous day. I am thrilled to be alive, to be well and to be reunited with my family. As a medical missionary, I never imagined myself in this position. When my family and I moved to Liberia last October to begin a two-year term working with Samaritan’s Purse, Ebola was not on the radar. We moved to Liberia because God called us to serve the people of Liberia.


In March, when we got word that Ebola was in Guinea and had spread to Liberia, we began preparing for the worst. We didn’t receive our first Ebola patient until June, but when she arrived, we were ready. During the course of June and July, the number of Ebola patients increased steadily, and our amazing crew at ELWA Hospital took care of each patient with great care and compassion. We also took every precaution to protect ourselves from this dreaded disease by following MSF and WHO guidelines for safety.

After taking Amber and our children to the airport to return to the States on Sunday morning, July 20, I poured myself into my work even more than before – transferring patients to our new, bigger isolation unit; training and orienting new staff; and working with our Human Resources officer to fill our staffing needs. Three days later, on Wednesday, July 23, I woke up feeling under the weather, and then my life took an unexpected turn as I was diagnosed with Ebola Virus Disease. As I lay in my bed in Liberia for the following nine days, getting sicker and weaker each day, I prayed that God would help me to be faithful even in my illness, and I prayed that in my life or in my death, He would be glorified.

I did not know then, but I have learned since, that there were thousands, maybe even millions of people around the world praying for me throughout that week, and even till today. And I have heard story after story of how this situation has impacted the lives of individuals around the globe – both among my friends and family, and also among complete strangers. I cannot thank you enough for your prayers and your support. But what I can tell you is that I serve a faithful God who answers prayers.

Through the care of the Samaritan’s Purse and SIM missionary team in Liberia, the use of an experimental drug, and the expertise and resources of the health care team at Emory University Hospital, God saved my life – a direct answer to thousands and thousands of prayers.

I am incredibly thankful to all of those who were involved in my care, from the first day of my illness all the way up to today – the day of my release from Emory. If I tried to thank everyone, I would undoubtedly forget many. But I would be remiss if I did not say thank you to a few. I want to thank Samaritan’s Purse, who has taken care of me and my family as though we were their own family. Thank you to the Samaritan’s Purse and SIM Liberia community. You cared for me and ministered to me during the most difficult experience of my life, and you did so with the love and mercy of Jesus Christ.

Thank you to Emory University Hospital and especially to the medical staff in the isolation unit. You treated me with such expertise, yet with such tenderness and compassion. For the last three weeks you have been my friends and my family. And so many of you ministered to me not only physically, but also spiritually, which has been an important part of my recovery. I will never forget you and all that you have done for me.

And thank you to my family, my friends, my church family and to all who lifted me up in prayer, asking for my healing and recovery. Please do not stop praying for the people of Liberia and West Africa, and for a quick end to this Ebola epidemic.

My dear friend, Nancy Writebol, upon her release from the hospital, wanted me to share her gratitude for all the prayers on her behalf. As she walked out of her isolation room, all she could say was, ‘To God be the glory.’ Nancy and David are now spending some much needed time together.

Thank you for your support through this whole ordeal. My family and I will now be going away for a period of time to reconnect, decompress and continue to recover physically and emotionally. After I have recovered a little more and regained some of my strength, we will look forward to sharing more of our story; but for now, we need some time together after more than a month apart. We appreciate having the opportunity to spend some time in private before talking to some of you who have expressed an interest in hearing more of our journey. Thank you for granting us that.

Again, before we slip out, I want to express my deep and sincere gratitude to Samaritan’s Purse, SIM, Emory and all of the people involved in my treatment and care.

Above all, I am forever thankful to God for sparing my life and am glad for any attention my sickness has attracted to the plight of West Africa in the midst of this epidemic. Please continue to pray for Liberia and the people of West Africa, and encourage those in positions of leadership and influence to do everything possible to bring this Ebola outbreak to an end. Thank you.

PastorKun: Olodo you have no idea what is going on behind the scene

OLAADEGBU: Son of Hamas leader turned Christian tells CNN: Gaza children are raised as tools of war.Mosab Hassan Yousef, a Christian convert whose father was a founding member of Hamas, told CNN last week that for leaders in Gaza, "dying ... is a way of worship."

malvisguy212: I believe you cause i'v seen someone give exactly this type of complain.

lizzy8: "The author of these texts is an evil spirit who has possessed her soul,"

"Often the owners of mobile phones are not even aware that they are being used like this, however in this case it is clear."
One of the text messages he claimed to have received read: "She will not come out of this hell. She’s mine. Anyone who prays for her will die."

frosbel: Can you show us where Jesus did it and Paul did it , not as a one off but on a perpetual basis.
Please ensure you provide these examples in the right context of the danger they faced at the time.
Thanks.

frosbel: They still have not answered the question.

If God called all Pastors in Nigeria today . . .

why are they all saying different things ?

Goshen360: Every Christian is already called.

There's no special calling for any man in the body of Christ.

Romans 8:28, 30; Jude 1:1; 1 Peter 5:10; 1 Cor. 1:24 and many more proves every Christian is called but we are "sent" on different assignment.

rationalmind: You were the one that said whoever casts out devils must be prepared to face such persecutions. By using such, I assumed you meant persecutions similar in nature to what the man experienced

and you think demons are so dumb as to use a total stranger thereby making it very easy for the pastor to deny the allegations. They could easily have used any of the church members who has a track record of visiting the pastor.

In that case, then all false accusations can be said to be demonic. Don't you find anything wrong in that?

If you say some false accusations are not demonic, I'm curious to know how you make a distinction between the demonic ones and those that aren't demonic.

rationalmind: I assume you also cast out demons.

1- How come you're yet to face such persecution?

2- I'm finding it difficult to find the rationale behind a demon allowing herself to be jailed for life just to bring down one person.

A demon I suppose should have other means to achieve the same objective free of jail.

3. Could it not be that the woman out of torture from her captors had to give them the name of someone just to relieve her of the torture?

rationalmind: But why do I have the feeling this man is saying the truth?

nlMediator: Good observation, but I'm not sure of that. I think the pastor is thinking along the lines of "infinity" and using infinitesimal as the adjective. Op can type a letter and mail it anonymously to the pastor. Or create an email address and email the pastor. Key thing is to use a channel that ensures that the pastor gets the message, instead of it being hijacked on the way.
