Amoyinoluwa24: Senator Dino Melaye earlier tweeted "I have credible information that EFCC is trying to cook up allegations against me. Forensic check on all my accounts. I ready for una."
Now see what the EFCC said "Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind - William Shakespeare"..
jaymejate: Firstly, according to the Bible, there was a man that danced with all his might to the LORD. 2 Samuel 6:14 "And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod." We all know that David was known for Dancing and praising the LORD, he danced all manner dance to the Lord to extent that a woman in the Bible said bad about it 2 Samuel 6:20 "When David returned home to bless his own family, Michal, the daughter of Saul, came out to meet him. She said in disgust, "How distinguished the king of Israel looked today, shamelessly exposing himself to the servant girls like any vulgar person might do!" The Bible says, she remained barren and was the only barren woman in the Bible.
In Church during praise and Worship, as human being trying to express our gratitude to the Lord, we want to dance like never before and with the high spirit, we start dancing shoki, bobo, etc This act has been condemned by so many people including the pastors.
So I'm throwing this question to you, is it a Sin or immoral to dance these so called "worldly dance" in Church and for God? With Bible references if necessary please
Happy Sunday
This is rhetorical. you said it yourself, "worldly dance". The Church is not of the world's. those kind of dance is not edifying. so it us immoral.
PMB best president ever in Nigeria. Agriculture you and I must do it. better jare it remain competition. this our Nigeria economy is doomed for good Change.
intergral: how sure are you that those people that translated the bible from koeinic greek, araimic and other formats to English for you to read really understood what they wrote.... If they did then they are also equal to Jesus.... Try and check for the authenticity of what you follow... By tha way the bible is a compilation of stories of those close to Jesus... How sure are you that those stories where not exaggerated?
oh! why don't you consider Ajayi Crowther translation to Yoruba. Yes! they are equal to Jesus here on earth. Because they also performed miracles and are led by the holy spirit in writing the Bible. The holy spirit inspired them in writing, that is why they cannot exaggerate. Isaiah talked about Jesus many years before his coming. he doesn't even know where when and how he will be born he just knew what he will be.
spice123: just continue ok. Read Deut 30: 15-18 and see what you've been doing to yourself. Lolsss My people perish for lack of knowledge
who and who gave you 11likes. I guess they just like you. people without base. what has that passage got to do with eating of sacrifices? I mean debut 30.
4everGod: OP as a believer there is nothing wrong with eating it! The bible says that we can eat even those things offered to idols but we should give thanks to almighty God for it. However this is for a grounded believer who lives by faith and not fear.
A young believer with doubts shouldnt do so and also a mature believer should not eat it in the presence of an immature believer who still believes that its not right to eat it.....this is for the sake of his faith.
Every food or animal comes from God so be they from Native doctors, juju worshippers, muslims etc feel free to eat if you are spiritually matured to do so. Afterall how would they accept you or your message when you reject their hospitality?

HardMirror: As proven above, there would be a need of 4.5 billion cubic kilometers of water, that is about 4,500,000,000,000,000,000 liters of water
QUESTION 2 where did this water come from?
Oh! The bible gave us the answer, so let's check the where God got all this water from.
Genesis 7:11-12 "11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.
This is very very interesting lol. So from the earth springs and rain 4.5billion Cubic kilometers of water fell all within 40 days. Lol
Now good science students and mathematics savies will already see why this is ridiculous.
Above is the proportion of water to earth of the whole earth. (This information is from the united states geological website) Yes 71% of the surface of the earth is covered by water it does not equal to 71% of the Volume of the earth.
It is just like buying bread that is wrapped in nylon. 100% of the bread is covered, But that nylon cover is ONLY about 2% of the volume of the bread. Got it?
In actual fact, the earth only has a total of 1.3billion cubic kilometers of water when water in the atmosphere, seas, oceans, rivers, lakes, ice-bergs etc are all added up. So where did 4.5 billion extra come from?
[b] what this reveals This reveals that the story was fabricated by the inventors of the story. They must have observed the amount of water all around, looking at the ocean and mediterean sea and fantasizing that that volume of water must be so great it can cover all mountains.
We are just getting started... Stay tuned
you've been blowing my mind from incept. but when you start relating, qualifying, quantifying, modifying Gods work with science. oh! you got -1million zero all over zero. if you don't have anything reasonable to write then read others.
jayloyexten: Please this is very important, I urge you read it, it changed my thinking about the sin ish.
VICTORY OVER SIN
“For we are saved by hope, but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth why doth he yet hope for?” Romans 8:24
A lot of persons are crying in their closest, “Lord I have given my life to you, why does sin still have dominion over me. But they are shy to say it, because the last time they went to church their pastor preached that “Once you are born again, the power of sin instantly dies” and likewise a lot of Christian live in condemnation.
The question then is, what is the problem with the gospel of salvation that we heard? We see it in teachings but not in practice. Is it that the blood of Christ that was shed 2000 years ago has expired and can no longer save from sin? Did Jesus really die?
We hear that sin is defeated at salvation, but peter was born again, yet he denied Christ, Paul spoke rashly to an elder, and peter in Galatians 2 was caught in hypocrisy. And so Paul said to him if I build again the things which I destroyed I make myself a transgressor.
What really is salvation and how do we lose it? Let me make it clear, Jesus can save us from sin, and his blood never expires even after 2000 years. But there is one enemy of salvation, and that is the flesh.
Let us examine what we were taught about salvation. 1 John 5:18 says “He that is born of God does not commit sin” What is written there is not “he that is born again” or he that said “Jesus come into my life”, it is clear, it reads “He that is born of God”
Another surprising thing is that John 1:12 says that “But as many that received him…to them he gave power to become sons of God” better put, to them he gave power to become “born of God” so at salvation we are given the power to become sons of God, not necessarily that we are sons of God.
The question then is, how can we become “born of God?” We are considered dead until we become born of God.
Remember that John 3:16 says that “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes on him shall not perish but have everlasting LIFE” Also remember that when Adam and Eve fell, they lost eternal LIFE. And so Jesus died, and the Bible says that he became the first born, and we are sons. So Jesus came to give us eternal LIFE, through sonship. So to enter into heaven we must be “born of God”. Now that LIFE of sonship that qualifies us for heaven can only be attained by one means. See below
Romans 8: 6 says, “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is LIFE and peace” Hence the equation has been solved to be born of God is to be spiritually minded.
Now victory over sin comes by being spiritually minded and not just born again, those are the people that cannot sin, because they are not of the flesh. What it means is that sin becomes repulsive to them, not that they are completely immune to sin, or if they sin it would not be counted against them.
And so the Bible says in Romans 12, “be ye transformed (into sons of God) by the renewing of your mind” so you can truly overcome the works of the flesh. Our mind is renewed by the word of God. Now you see why you may still sin even after salvation, because the spirit and the flesh are in constant contention. But from today’s text, we are saved by hope, and everything we hope for may not be seen at the moment. But the power over sin has been given you.
You must refuse to let your failures deter you; if you fall today you will not fall tomorrow. Let your faith be strong in Gods saving grace. Run back to God, it does not mean you are not born again.(1 John 2:1) Be transformed to become born of God by reading the word and walking by the spirit, giving no room for the flesh. In this generation you need the infilling of the Holy Spirit
You cannot say that you have been delivered from the spirit of masturbation and you are still watching pornography! It will come back. Give no room for the flesh!
Romans 8:23 says, Paul speaking, “…Even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption to wit (to become born of God), the redemption of our body”
Salvation is faith. It is not giving excuses for sin; it is the hope that sin is defeated, even if it does not yet appear. But we know that once hope is perfected in us, then we are made perfect. This is the pressing into perfection called sanctification; the total defeat of the flesh.
With love, 08100093154
because they never have personal encounter with God. after being born again. That is, salvation. they still need sanctification for anointing before becoming Christ like.
mhisbliss: [size=16pt]Bad effects of gambling & why its a sin[/size] The bible did not condemn gambling directly but it said alot of things that makes gambling a sin, am not conversant with those bible verses but i know some verses and what it says, some of those verses are
Proverbs 13:11 Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.
Hebrews 13:5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Ecclesiastes 5:10 He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity.
1 Timothy 6:9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
Ephesians 4:28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need.
Proverbs 28:22 A stingy man hastens after wealth and does not know that poverty will come upon him.
I wouldn't get married to one, wether part time or full time, and I'm sure most people wont either.
Bad influence: It expose you to bad and irresponsible people who have no future prospects other than gambling untill they suddenly become millionaires, they'll keep advising you not to quit gambling that Tommorow will be your turn and you keep going deeper until you become addicted
Its hard to raise a family with gambling: Most people who are gamblers have dysfunctional families, instability, poor standard of living, little or no financial progress etc, ladies never get married to a gambler.
Addiction: this is somehow similar to drug addiction, in the sense that whenever its time to gamble and you don't have the resources to gamble, you'd become restless, you start visualizing the best outcome if you take a risk and gamble, then you'd borrow or sell whatever you have just to gamble, thier clothes, mobile phone, cars, heck they can even sell thier wife. when you loose you start reflecting that you've been foolish all the while and if you win you will use it to gamble again and the bookies will collect it back.
its a waste of productive time: The dedication gamblers put into what they do is worthy of applause, they scrutinize check and double check and put all time and effort in it only to loose woefully like they didn't put any effort into it, they end up in disbelief only to bounce back afterwards and resume thier gambling.
Society frowns at it: gambling is not a job, only those who own the bookies make the profit, and they make it off you the gamblers, like the name implies its gambling, you invest in it but you're not certain if you will have returns or not, its shady, i personally see full time gamblers as unserious. Its a shady business so invest in something you can get sure profits from.
It instills the spirit of greed in people: greed is the mechanism the bookies employ to make sure gamblers keep loosing and only few get away with thier money the rest loose because of greed, those who play sports betting can relate to this, they introduced the odds system, the easy outcomes has little odds which brings little returns, but since the greed is there you will choose more of it to accumulate odds or choose a dangerous outcome with little chance of winning and play in faith, and 90% loose because of such cunning machinations.
It draws you away from God: the only thing on your mind will be the thoughts of how awesome your life will be when you win because you have faith that one day you'll hit it big so you keep playing until you hit bankruptcy, believe me if you put all that faith in God he will reach out, his ways are surer than bet9ja.
It makes people to sink into debt or go bankrupt: If you have a business no matter how its progressing don't go into gambling because that would be the death of your business, imagine you keep taking from something without replacement everytime, eventually it dries up because its a sure thing the ratio of loss is higher than gains in every instance.
It leads to depression and emotional anxiety: this is common among those who is still awaiting the outcome of thier bet and those who keep loosing untill they felt like they're the mayors of looserville, then you hear the later saying the bookies are using juju and the former praying God make my ticket nor cut.
[size=14pt]My advice to gamblers and intending gamblers:[/size]
Its for the rich and emotionally strong people: Am not judging, but dont go into gambling if you're clingy and emotional, its for those who can afford to loose, you see all the people in casinos gambling? Gambling is a fun thing to them, They can afford to loose because they're already rich, they stake what they can afford to loose without batting an eyelid, but you that intend to become rich from it ends up staking what you should have saved and when you loose you become suicidal and emotional.
Don't make it your profession: do something with your life that is guaranteed to bring returns, dont base your life on heresay of people who won and think that is also your fate, we have different stories to tell and no two people will tell exact stories in life.
Don't go into gambling at all: to avoid addiction, if you're in, its hard to get out, especially students its dangerous because one day you might use your school fees without considering how you got it and how important it is.
is gambling distinct to trying ones luck? or are they the same?
