joseph1832:
No, shame on you for assuming any who bears Joseph share the same faith as you!.

Shame on you for being dogmatic, narrow minded and twisted!.

So you know, just because my moniker is joseph18.32 doesn't mean my name is Joseph. Unlike you, rather than be dogmatic and swallow minded about everything your religious faith throw at you, I took my time and carefully studied and peruse your yeye religion and gave up the name Joseph because its nothing more than an instrument the white man used to brainwashed the likes of you.

I urge you to open your eyes and see what is, rather than see what's not!.

So you think you're wise... "... I took my time and carefully studied and perused..." You were never a Christian! That's ish with athiest. They were never true Christians. You must be born again. They professing to be wise, became fools. Because they would not like to retain God in their minds, He gave them over to a reprobate mind to do those things that are not lawful. Corrupt knowledge. People please always pray against forces of hell who know their time is short and have let all hell loose. They come out to destroy souls by turning them away from God. 2 thess 2 talks about the great apostasy (falling away of many from the faith). Please let's be careful

Who is a homosexual?

Homosexuals, prostitutes and tax collectors are making their ways to heaven before you!

I just wonder the people clicking 'like' button for this guy who is trying to attack truth instead of opening his own thread. Am sure the message from the OP was already touching someone out there but this Italo came as a distraction. This is a big warning to you Bros.

firefox4th:
Good inspirational write up, op.Majority of the church of nowadays are in the world unlike in the past that we used to say that 'the world is in the church'.delibrately the church has gone astray from her purpose and thi is not only perculiar with the RCCG but all except the few.
The love of world and all in it is at the centre of this mess and I do say that the message of prosperity is the harbinger of that deceit.
I do say that I need nobody to tell me that my God will bless me.

MESSAGE ON PROSPERITY IS FAULTY.

The present day message on prosperity is faulty. I learnt Kenneth Haggin before he slept called top World Gospel leaders to correct issues of prosperity message. It has become a tool against the Church. I heard of a Church where a Senior Pastor beheaded a Church auditor just to conceal crime. 2nd thess 2 says a lot about the end time Church. It talks about the man of perdition (Spirit of lawlessness). We should keep praying for an awakening

HitlerGaddafi:
No wonder they say religious people are not always successful. They sit down there hoping for a miracle job from God without hustling for anything. My brother, the reason why people believe in God is because it answers many complicated questions like where did we come from? Where do we go to after we die? What happens when we die? How did life start on earth? All these complicated and difficult questions forces us to belive an imaginary supreme being up there is responsible for all these. Not that i'm an unbeliever brother but I put a limit to my belief and taste for religion.
God bless you.

Please who told you Christians are not successful? We don't seat down doing nothing. Who go to work, earn living, we own companies and employ people. Open your heart and believe God fully, not putting a limit to your belief in God.

HitlerGaddafi:
Bros, some of these miracles can be questioned at times. I withnessed the one of RCCG on friday. They looked arranged. The pastor said " I KNOW MANY OF YOU ARE EXPECTING ME TO GO INTO PREACHING TONIGHT BUT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WERE BROUGHT TO ME WITH SOME CASES. THEY WILL BE BROUGHT FORWARD TO THE ALTER FOR PRAYERS". Sorry to say but if these miracles weren't arranged, he would have simply said "IF YOU ARE ANYWHERE IN THE CONGREGRATION AND ARE LAME OR BLIND, KINDLY COME FORWARD FOR YOUR HEALING". If all of them who gave their life to christ happened to be healed these way, then I will accept that adeboye is real. Not that I don't believe in christ but we have just too many fake pastors these days using the name of God for making money and to do business. I heard from a source that in RCCG if you have your bsc or hnd or ond or edu cert, you will be given the position of an area pastor or parish pastor straight if you send your cv to the church. Just before the convention too, pastor adeboye retired some pastors and gabe them some amount of money. This is so wrong because I believe the spreading of the gospel has no limit or age barrier. Me sef go open my own church very soon. E be like sey na the business wey dey reign be that o bros..God will expose them soon and until then...........

Why are people sooo ooo ooo ooo unreasonable? You don't know and you don't ask. You're not a member! Who told you all these lies. Oya send your cv and get a job... He said... Pastor straight... Because na only you go school, abi? Did Pastor Adeboye say all the Lamb and all those that were carried in to be brought forward? Yes. Yet you say you witnessed it. Maybe you even went there(but with wrong mindset). After going to God with wrong mindset for years, you will end up saying there is no God and become an atheist.

My recommendation : When you accept Jesus, use your whole heart. 2) immediately after that meet a genuine Servant of God to pray the baptism of the Holy Ghost into you. From there you can know fake from real. Until then,...... Remain quiet. It's not by force to believe

Trottle:
Nigerians *sighs* easily decieved.vthat was how t.b joshua sent bottles of holy water to liberia to cure ebola without being physcally present. himself they fear . I dare any pastor to pick a random 'limbless' beggar on the street and restore his limbs then I would believe your so-called miracle. until then?

You seat there and Dare a man of God... No body is convincing you. Nobody is afraid of you. Nobody is begging you to believe any miracle. Please don't believe. Carry your unbelief away. Is it even your business. People are thinking God for HIS great works these ones are here trying to do the impossible

These are models na. Their gods dey package die. Even they need physician. LOL. Are these the uncommon gods or these are just their children? I need clarification. Please tell me... Can you worship any of these boys or girls?

MaxWellStores:
You were created for a reason...understanding the account of creation will set you on the right path. In Genesis 1:1, the bible tells us that God created the heaven and the earth... Was that information in anyway trying to tell us:
- that it was a summation on the account of creation explained in the verses that followed? OR,
- that it was a definitive fact. He first created the heaven, then, created the earth; meaning to say that the heaven and earth already existed?

The next verse Gen 1:2 paints the chaotic state of the earth at the time. Now, was that piece of useful information trying to communicate something out of the ordinary to us? Was it simply saying, "when God started to form the earth that, it was dark and there was water everywhere?"
Or, "that after God had created the universe, something later caused the earth to be chaotic?"

These two verses (Gen 1:1-2) hold great truths and can reveal to us, the real account of creation narrated in Genesis 1 and the true purpose for the creation of human beings. You, I, we are not just here to "till the garden and preserve it" as many are led to believe. Beside the physical purpose of our creation quoted above, there is a far more purposeful reason: the spiritual.

There was a problem after creation, and that problem led to our creation, Genesis 2:1-4. We are the solution to that problem. What was the problem? Why were we created? What was the garden of eden for? Does it still exist and where is it now located?

You were created for a reason..understanding the account of creation would set you on the right path.
God bless you and enjoy your day...

Was the above a long question or advice? We need answers to the questions raised

johnydon22:
More name callings. . . "You are responsible for what you UNDERSTAND" i did not say BELIEVE.... Actually your beliefs are as result of Child indoctrination..

Now read Frank's post that i posted above again. . . Everyone knows Johnydon22 is way too above to engage in a childish discourse as exchanging emotional talks or word salads of ad hominems. .

When you learn how to argue without insults, then we will see if you can be worth engaging by me

Hmm mm. Too much grammar Bro! Too much trying to reason The Almighty God with your small head on your small life! Question : is God a Spirit or not? WHY DO YOU AND FRANK think you can necessarily see Him with your physical (non spiritual eyes canal?). Many people here have heard God, felt His love and touch. It's not by force anymore to believe in God. I hope you and Frank also know it's not by force for you to be going about on NL looking for who to pull away from God. Don't claim to be going about looking people to 'help' out of delusion. Haha haha... Get real Broses... Get God and get life

Radoillo:
You see, this is where it begins to get exasperating, and this why I carefully stay away from engaging in debates with people who throw up pseudo-intellectual stuff like this.

You tell me there were 144,000 men who came from some planetary system called Sirius to create or (as you say) 'seed' the earth. You gave some quantitative detail like how they increased in 7,000 years to a population of 1 billion 8 million. In no place did you show by what methods (psychic or scientific) you arrived at this unknown history and these details. Yet you want people who disagree to bring proof as to why it is wrong, with clear arguments? How about YOU bring proof as to why any intelligent person should accept this as anything but the plot for a Tolkienish novel?

I have my own theory sef. Formerly there were two moons orbiting the earth. The Creator then made the first men out of star dust, broke up one of the moons and built a spaceship. The first men rode to earth on that spaceship. And that's how we came to be here. If you disagree with my own theory present proof and make clear arguments explaining why I am wrong.

Hahaha haha haha haha haha haha..... Hahaha haha haha... Everyone with his own theory. Reprobate minds everywhere.

lomprico:
So we should stop going to church then or church going should not be compulsory....oh! Wait the pastors wont agree on this, no more tithes n offerings for them abi. Double standards

Know God for yourself. Have you been looking for excuse not to go to church? I didn't say so. Stick to my point and don't derail... With respect to the topic, I said the pastors knew the policy that after 70years of age, they retire from church work but are still in God's work. What's double standard there I hope you are not the type who avoids the truth

The Redeemed Christian Church of God announced the retirement of 20 Senior Pastors who have attained the age of 70.

The announcement was made at the conclusion of this year’s ministers’ conference (it yearly preceedes the convention) with the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E. A Adeboye.

Six of the pastors received awards of Excellence while the remaining 14 got the award of “Fruitful”. Moreover, they all received the G.O’s handshake, plaques and undisclosed sums of money. The church thanked the retirees and prayed for them.
Also, the church gave awards to some of its pastors who have put in 20 years and above. They are in the categories of 20, 25 and 30 years.

To prevent the health crises recorded during the marathon fast declared by the church last year, Adeboye advised members to always break with pap or other soft items, rather than solid food which takes longer time to digest.

Half baked Christians everywhere. Young boys and girls who can't uphold the faith. By guess, 60%or more of people on this forum would claim to be Christians(but don't really understand what it means). Very many have no foundation in God. Many don't study their Bibles anymore. Many don't know Jesus at all. If you don't know Jesus and you don't understand what Pastor is saying or doing, what then do you do? Be sincere My friend. This is what happens... You get tired of the whole thing and start calling it business. Some even quit and become atheist and some seize it as excuse to sit at home and say say "am serving God in my heart". Know the God you serve. Serve Him with fear. Regard Him and His business. Am not a Pastor but I fear(Reverence) God. Well, truth is... Not all who say they're Christians truly are. Those half baked ones are the ones giving the Church a bad name and face... Having this seal dearly beloved, the Lord knows them that are His. God bless you

I didn't say you should stop going to Church Sir. Go to Church and serve your God. If you don't truly love God you may find yourself talking carelessly about Him and His mission. Church is a business, yes. It's God's business! Be guided Sir

Ask4bigneyo:
Do Pastors retire? Tot they are working for God

Let's respond with maturity. If you can't say anything without destructive criticism, better don't say anything.

Back to the topic... It's one thing to work for God and another thing to work for Church. They have not stopped God's work but may have stopped Church work. Our Saviour Jesus was not doing Church work but God's work... "I must work the works of Him who sent me...

timonski:
And who told you that all atheists were once christians. Everyone is born an atheist.

And who told you everyone was born an atheist? Let us not argue. Thanks and Jesus bless you

Esdb3:
Tell me how rain falls in quick simple illustration. Indulge me and explain.



And I wonder who clicked like.

my thoughts too. Atheist are invading a thread like this where the op expressed shock... If you don't believe in God why not just shut up on this thread instead of still trying to prove your points. To the atheists here... Listen to this.

Your quest for knowledge led you to finding corrupt knowledge and that knowledge is destroying you. That's why you don't have peace despite being an atheist.

You left Christianity because you never had a personal encounter with Jesus. Blame yourself for having a poor reason to join Christianity.

Lastly, God is not a scientist. Stop using your small head to imagine God. You will go crazier...

victornwaru:
The early church stil remains better than the modern church. Too much offering ang sowing of seed is the order of the day in the modern church

too much offering and sowing of seed is not a problem for the early Church gave their all. It depends on what the offering and seeds are used for.

If car tracker is possible, then his boss tracking him is possible. It might be an official line that must be on at all times. I had a colleague in this situation. His was even a tecno phone.

Everfrank:
Your boss might be playing a fast one on you guys! Even the service providers cannot pin point the precise location of any device without GPS. They can locate an active sim to an area around a particular mast that gives service to the device at a particular time. I don't think your boss has a software or hardware to do that across all the networks. He is not CIA or FBI, is he? It might be a coincidence or simple guess work with your colleaques, or they all collabrate to box you in a spot. If you are using official vehicle it might be that he had a tracker installed. There is no software in any store that can enable your boss hack into the network of the service providers to locate a sim card.
I advise that you try and keep to your work schedule and seek permission if you must move during working hours.

dolphinheart:
1.If u are a Christian , pls read ecl 3:18-20 and Gen 7 : 22 and then comment.

2. What is a soul?
3. Is there anywhere in the bible that states directly that man was given a soul.

Read up Gen 2:7... man became a living SOUL. The soul is made up of your will, emotion, mind and intellect. Music is food for the Soul.
Follow me;
The body is likened to the phone, the Spirit is likened to the sim catd while soul is likened to the memory card. The conscious and sub conscious minds are parts of the soul. The mind also is the meeting point of the Spirit and body. You therefore dream with your mind. Since emotion is a unit of the soul, you therefore feel pains there. The Bible says the Soul that sinneth shall die. It shal . Live in eternal pains... thanks and God bless you all

king ebuka is here
ok na

when you eat so much , u feel some discomfort, telling u to stop,
when u walk or run for long , your legs get weary , telling you to stop.
when you are ironing , and the iron gets too hot , the thermostat automatically turns the iron off , at least for a while .

My point is how long will all these continue ? Its reached its peak . Every celeb is posing nude on magazines . Women wear rags , forming sexy . Twitter doesn't condone nudity anymore , there are free the nipple protests going on so that Facebook and Instagram will bow to nudity .

War , protests , killings everywhere . The violence is too much . Isn't that a sign?

For happens in the next 30 years ? Women will wear pants covering their pps at this rate . Every mag will be a play boy mag . Cartoons may no longer be for kids . P'orn's age limit might be +10 . Kids will have to mature before they'll be able to use social networks . Celebs will appear topless or wear strings as clothing in red capet events. Music will be an erotic melody . Rebels could take over nations and borders. Condoms will be free. Pregnant women at 12. Virgin age limit ,12. I can go on .


But this will not be so , because Christ will come to take the saints , then later, after seven years , the new heaven and earth will come and peace , godliness will reign for ever . I might sound foolish to you ...
