Pastor Paul was clearly wrong (and I hope he learns his lesson) but this case is now looking more like persecution than prosecution.

...neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing...
— 2 Samuel 24:24

God bless pastor Enenche for his selfless service to humanity.

No one is perfect, not even you...why crucify pastor Paul for his imperfections??

All we pray now is for the pastor to learn from his mistakes, amend and move forward.

No matter our imperfections, God never gives up on any us, because He loves us and waits patiently for us to repent.

That's why Jesus prayed....

"Lead us not into temptation.."

Temptation comes to us all in different forms, shapes and sizes.

Pastor Paul shouldn't have flashed that stun gun on camera much less using it.

12 years of this teacher's life to be wasted just like that...

Homosexuality isn't normal... there are spirits that drive people to do such odd things.

Chai...

As a fan, Imagine watching Man utd play only domestic football in 2025/06 season.

Mr Amorim is indeed lucky not to be sacked.

Big things sometimes comes in small packages....

As tiny as the mosquito is, it has killed more people than other animals.

1991-2007 logo was more iconic to me.

Then we were attracted to colorful and rhythmic themes/tune of the primer league on TV.

It was new, exciting and refreshing. By that time the Italian league was dominant, but with a few years, the EPL toppled it.

That's why it's not easy to be very successful or a celebrity...even as a pastor.

Just make one silly mistake and critics/criticism come flying from every corner.

Carrying a teaser about in this environment is not common. This isn't Yankee.

She's tired of men breaking her fragile heart 💔.... that's why she turned to a doll.

Clearly a psychological problem....too much masturbation can effect one phyche.

What's the motives behind the needless killings? Ritual? Religious? political? Rivialry?

However, shedding of innocent blood has serious repercussions....

God have mercy.

Oh how time flies ....

I remember this ball ⚽ way back in primary school during inter class matches.. What made it so special was the solid way it bounced

Sorry this is not true!

Paul said each letter should be read in all the churches he established:

And when this letter has been read among you, arrange for it also to be read in the congregation of the La·o·di·ceʹans and for you also to read the one from La·o·di·ceʹa. Colossians 4:16


I am putting you under the solemn obligation by the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers. 1Thessalonians 5:27

The letters are for all the congregations!

Paul was simply instructing order in the then Corinthian church. The Corinthian church women were not organized in their speaking in church and that was why Paul said they should be silent.

Why would God put the HOLY GHOST in men and women and expect women to be quiet?

Haba, don't be biased.

brainhgeek:
We do not box God and who He decides to use. If He used a donkey to declare His intentions, aren't women better than donkeys?
A balanced analysis of the verses quoted will help a lot. We may want to ask ourselves 'was Paul speaking to the universal assembly or a local assembly? I am of the opinion that he was addressing the assemblies in Corinth and Ephesus where there were contending issues that needed to be addressed ASAP. Remember, same Paul had women (Priscilla, Phoebe, Junia(mentioned by Paul as an Apostle - Romans 16:7), Chloe, Euodia, Syntyche, Mary, Julia, Tryphaena, Tryphosa ) who worked with him and many of them must have been in leadership positions and even had Churches in their houses (Romans 5) and were admins in other branches.
The verses in the book of Timothy and Corinthians did not address universal Christian women and have been taken contextually without an understanding. There was a mention of women keeping quite but elsewhere in Corinthians and Joel, the gift of prophesy is encouraged and promised. How do you prophesy and pray when you are quite? May the revelation of Christ be full in our hearts. Amen

Exactly the point I was trying to prove.

Paul was directly addressing the Corinthian church and not as a general standard that women shouldn't lead churches.

Very aggressive as a defender....

Will he transfer his aggressiveness to his players?

GreatAchiever1:
Go and re-do that research. I'm 100 percent certain that you got your research from Egalitarian sources which are not but pure lies.

This topic is very sensitive and as a result many Christians have different varying opinions on it .

However, in describing ministry gifts, Paul never designated the office of pastor solely to a man. So are the other ministry offices.

Think about it carefully.

Congrats to him...I was his big fan at Man utd. No one (or 1%) in world football could curve balls like him.

However, his tattoos remain a mystery.

Go for a long walk to calm my nerves, read my Bible to build faith and Worship 🎵

No stress, worries or hassles in God's presence just rest.

They were God's commandments through Paul for the setup of the church, and not Paul's opinions.

1 Corinth 14:37, "If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

1 Corinthians 14 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
²⁹ Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
³⁰ If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
³¹ For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
³² And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
³³ For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
³⁴ Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
³⁵ And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
³⁶ What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?
³⁷ If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

I just did a research....

When Paul admonished women not to speak in church, he wasn't speaking against women ordained as pastors. What he was speaking against was the disorderly manner some high status women in the Corinthians church who taught and preached in their services.

Paul wanted these women to correctly submit to church authority in the Corinthian church before handling church leadership.

Paul wasn't referring to women pastoring a church.

The New testament was in Greek, so there are bound to some misinterpreting in English.

All church leadership in the Bible were males, but that doesn't mean a woman can't head a church.

Most of what Paul said against women leading in church was from His own opinions not God's.

Why would God gift women with the same spiritual gifts as men if He didn't want them to pastor churches?

God is the perfect father.....

Unlike some earthly fathers, He is 100% approachable because He is 100% ❤️

No time in His presence is wasted. In His presence is joy, peace, strength, glory, promotion, blessings, increase, power, angels, favour... add yours.

This man just cheated death by the narrowest of margins....✈️⚰️

What if he was too scared to jump at the last minute?

Such is life o jare.

But God Almighty be praised.

You need to comment with wisdom and not open your mouth without thinking

Fortunately, I think carefully before I speak or rather write in this platform. I don't talk or write anyhow.

I follow prophecies, and believe it or not, prophetically USA is at the brink of collapse. DT has allowed pride enter into his head and he's acting as a democratic dictator by his impetous policies especially on immigration.

Prophetically DT life is still in danger as he has more enemies now than before.

crossbreedwears:
Less than 4 years from now, he will leave office and the next president will reverse most of his stupid policies

He may not finish his tenure.... he's likely to be impeached or assassinated.

He has too many enemies than friends because of his hasty policies.

With God there no impossibility....

according to your faith be it unto you.

Joseph didn't rely on fasting and prayers to solve the famine in Egypt, he used wisdom.

Truth must be told: while fasting is extremely important because certain things can't happen spiritually unless we fast, our leaders must not tempt God by refusing to do what ought to be done for selfish reasons.

No condition or position is permanent....

Change is inevitable.

The last can be the first tomorrow and vice versa.

I thought about this earlier...🤔

Emotional and mental health determines how fast or slow one's ages.

God's presence too determines how one ages as with Moses.

...for what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
— James 4:14

May God keep us.

💔 heartbreaking....

Mostly happens in a loveless marriage.

A respectable draw especially between 🐻‍❄️ and 🦏.

After fighting for so long, they will stare at each other in utter fatigue
