Overall,the yorubas voted tinubu.obi won the Christian dominated areas of north central while losing the Muslim areas massively.in the ss,obi won but tinubu and atiku got good votes.so how would obi have won?

Obi swept 3 geopolitical zones namely, South East, South South and North Central. And he got favorable votes in the remaining three.

He even won Taraba in North East, Kaduna in North West except for the manipulations.

Let the investigation continue. It will shock you.

If you generously dash Peter Obi all of Tinubu's Rivers vote 200k Tinubu still leads Atiku with over 1.6m votes

Dash Peter Obi all of Tinubu's 572k Lagos vote plus 200k Rivers vote and let's assume Tinubu had zero votes in Rivers and Lagos.. Tinubu still leads with over 1m votes

North plays a major role in who governs Nigeria


.

The fraud in Rivers state was repeated in many other states. Let the investigation continue. This is the worst manipulation in the history of election in Nigeria.

Let's just say our God differs from yours!

A happy person doesn't keep malice with others {Matthew 18:22} our God is a happy person {1Timothy 1:11} He won't keep malice for long with the creatures of His own hands {Genesis 6:3} after He has taken away the breath that keeps them living! Ecclesiastes 12:7

Answer my question. Jesus said that the fire in hell shall never be quenched.

You want to quench it with your lies?

Who are we supposed to believe? Jesus or your fabricated lies?

The Importance of Walking in Divine Love - 16. (It Fulfills The Law).

"For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law."(Romans 13:9-10).

One of the mission of our Lord Jesus was to fulfill the Law. This is why he said; "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled." (Matthew 5:17-18).

The word fulfill in this context means to satisfy or meet the requirements. And Jesus said he didn't come to destroy the law but to meet its requirement. To destroy here means to arbitrarily annul the law of Moses without following due process. The due process required him to go to the cross because the law says that the souls that sins must die. So, Jesus died, met the requirements of the Law and set it aside.

In addition, he put his love in our hearts that gives us the ability to live right in accordance to the ten commandments given under the Law. Thus, if you walk by the divine love of God placed in your heart, you will not steal, nor kill, nor commit adultery or do anything contrary to the law.

So, the church is not under the law of Moses and the ten commandments has been replaced with the new commandment of love Jesus gave which reads; " A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another." (John 13:34-35).

We are now in the dispensation of grace and not under the law of Moses. The divine love of God placed in our hearts fulfills the law. The moral demands under grace is even greater than what it was under the law. For example, the law says, 'thou shall not commit adultery'. But grace says, 'anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery. Again, the law says, 'thou shall not kill'. But grace says, 'anyone who hates his brother is a murderer'.

So, grace did not come to water down the righteous requirements contained in the law. Rather, it raised it. And the ability to live right has been placed in us because of the divine love deposited in our spirit at new birth. Just let this new kind of love dominate your thoughts, words and actions. And all the requirements of the Law will be fulfilled.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, you are Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. Besides you, there is no other God. I thank you for depositing your love nature in my spirit thus giving me the ability to meet the requirements of the Law. I yield myself to it and I refuse to make provisions for the flesh to dominate me in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

There is no literal everlasting fire but complete annihilation of the wicked get it right into your skull that the Hebrew word translated Hell simply means Grave!

But Jesus used the phrase, the fire that shall never be quenched ' - Mark 9:43, 45.

Na you wan quench am?

The scripture also said that the devil will be tormented for ever and ever in the Lake of Fire Revelation 20:10.

You reject the word of God and believe what Rutherford and Russell taught you. I pity your end. You will burn in the worst part of hell.

MaxInDHouse:
Hell means Grave!

The brainwashing has no comparison.

Everlasting fire also means grave?

Furnace of fire also means grave?

See how Rutherford and Russell has destroyed your sense of reasoning.

...she is already a chef, a cook ...she owns a big restaurant in Lagos...she is a cook a chef that is her profession....so she already had important things doing for herself before she ventured into this guiness book of record Cooking competition where she has to break the record of the India man that cooked for 87 hours.... there is nothing wrong in what she is doing...life is not easy even she wants to achieve something with sleep less night...she is already getting popular in nigeria.... Buhari, tinubu, osibanjo, governors are praising her and ready and planning to meet her and reward her financially and other wise and give her a national honour and reward her financially and many other good things... nigerians are also praising her...so there is nothing vanity there..life is not easy,. good things does not come easy... even with sleep less night....it's involves hard work and deterimination to achieve success in life...she takes a rest of 30 minutes in every 6 hours .she had made a name for herself and her family in the history of nigeria and the whole world..so it's a great achievement not vanity

OK. Your opinion.

VULCAN:
You sound like one of those who hide behind Christianity to explain their unproductivity and lack of self development.

Christianity is the life of God in a person not hanging about church 4 days a week.

Strive to leave a mark in this world.

God does not kill people once they receive salvation so settle down and realise there is work to do on earth.

The phone you are using to mock her is a creation by some man

I believe in creativity. It's my personal opinion. There are better records to play. Food for the belly and belly for food, all shall perish.

MaxInDHouse:
You keep telling yourself a lie blindly instead of finding out what Jesus taught in his mother's language. It's like someone speaking to his own people using idioms and proverbs familiar to his listeners then a stranger tries to interpret only to end up giving a totally different picture of what the original speaker wanted to inculcate in the minds of his listeners.
Well continue dreaming about your torment after death at least the true God has declared that tormenting people in fire has never come up to His heart {Jeremiah 7:31} perhaps you can force it down His throat since that is what your own religion teaches!

See what Rutherford and Russell has done ooo. Taking countless millions to hell through brainwashing.

The Importance of Walking in Divine Love - 15. (It Destroys Selfishness and Greed).

"Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others." (Philippians 2:4).

We all have goals and dreams in life we love to achieve. But when the pursuit of our goals is such that all you think about is just you, it amounts to selfishness. Greed comes in when you have excessive desire for more even though you can do without the excesses.

This is the story of most people in the world we live in today. They already have the comfort of life such that basic needs such as food, clothes, and shelter is not a challenge to them. They even have fleet of cars, several built houses and several businesses that are thriving but they are never satisfied.

And when they are making new budgets, it's how they can buy new cars, build new homes or acquire more lands. They hardly think about the poor people around them, the less privileged, the widows, fatherless and the orphans. This is a very wrong way to live your life.

When the children of Israel began to possess their lands after they left Egypt, there were few tribes at a certain time that were yet to possess their land. God told the tribes that have possessed their lands to help these tribes to fight until they also possess their lands - Deuteronomy 3:20. They were only permitted to go back to their own land until God has given their brethren rest also.

So, when you have attained some level of success in life such that basic needs like feeding, clothing and shelter are no longer a problem, help others who are still having having the challenges of meeting these basic needs. Be concerned about them. This is what divine love does. It destroys selfishness and greed. The welfare and wellbeing of your fellow brethren becomes your concern when you are walking in divine love. And reaching out to them does not make you lose anything. Rather, it opens doors of more favour and blessing.

In the same way, ministries that are thriving should reach out to other ministries and support them to grow up also. Wealthy pastors should support up coming ones. Remember, your true wealth in the kingdom of God is not measured by the money you have in the bank, or the number of cars and private jets you have. It is measured by what you have given away to support the weak, poor, orphans and widows.

Prayer: Holy Father, I thank you for your faithfullness and goodness towards me. You are at work in my life to ensure that your good plans concerning me comes to pass. I pray for a revival in the church that will spur us up to support others until we all experience financial rest in the mighty name of Jesus.

Why this much hate?

Election has come and gone but Nigeria must continue whether u like it or not. Tinubu will bcome president whether u like it or not. And truth is, u don't have to like it. Why not work in ur own capacity to improve this country u claim to love so much.

OK. We are waiting for the magic.

lhordspy:
With due respect. Prof is a dull man.

Prof. Let me ask you. What is the essence of the election when all it takes to fail is 'not make' 25% in FCT?

It means even though you win the entire 36 states with 98%, and garner over 34billion votes across the states. Not getting 25% in FCT means another election of 300bn will be re-conducted.

All it takes is political actors without any road to victory or path to majority votes, making sure they block any body from getting 25% in FCT; by crook or hook. Because they know even 25billion votes cant save anyone.

All it takes is political parties focusing on FCT only and giving middle fingers to the other states. They can even try importing people from 36 states into FCT just to vote and scuttle the opposition impending victory

People like Sowore and others who know they cant win will just campaign only in FCT, bribe the residents and make sure the votes are split. Then we will keep repeating election till thy-kingdom-come without president.

As a Prof,e make sense? Is this logical?

Which school did you attend?

It's just like saying that someone got A1 in Physics, A1 in Chemistry, A1 in additional mathematics but he got F9 in Mathematics. Is it possible?

If you you can win in all the states and only failed in Abuja, something is wrong. It's either the elections were rigged in the states you won or the results were just cooked.

Please, make use your senses well.

He is not a servant of God and he cannot be. What he is saying is not consistent with the scriptures. I pity his gullible followers.

To me, it is vanity. When there is no vision, the people perish.

Janosky:
Jesus Christ NEVER knew nor spoke the word "hell" or "hellfire".
Jesus Christ spoke the word "Hades" ,"Gehenna."
Both words don't mean exactly the same thing.

Are the Sodom and Gomorrah people tortured till today?

Oga,You are very dishonest to change your hellfire perpetual torture narrative to "eternally destroyed", this dishonest pastorpreneur.

Oga go and rest with your GIBBERISH.

What about the everlasting fire he mentioned? What other phrase can you use to replace it?

He also used the phrase, furnace of fire.

Suffer de sweet you. You go cry tire.

Janosky:
Genesis 3:15 is the only punishment that God prescribed for the devil (identified as original serpent in Revelation chapter 12.

Crushing the serpent's head is synonymous with everlasting destruction as if by fire.

This Pastorpreneur,Are you going to be dishonest that everlasting fire is torturing Sodom and Gomorrah today?

You deceit and wickedness has no comparison. Instead of explaining the verse I quoted, you are pointing me to another scripture.

You just choose to deny the existence of hell even with a clear evidence of the passage I just quoted.

You punishment will be worse than what Sodom and Gomorrah is presently suffering in hell.

Janosky:
Whereas your fellow Trinitarians OLAADEGBU, Emusan continue to give a totally different conflicting report they received from your holy ghost.


Their own Jesus was raised as a human being. Them go quote Matt Slick tire, their super Daddy.

In your mind, you think I share the same belief with you. You made the assertion that Jesus did not resurrect bodily. So, I am asking if we too are going to resurrect without our bodies. And you are all avoiding the question because you know that you will be trapped in your answer.

MaxInDHouse:
Guy Jesus never PREACHED about a place of torment if you want to know more about Jesus' preaching go through him sermon on the mount from chapter 5-7.

It's when he started TEACHING that he used parables to teach the Jews how God will treat the death of EVILDOERS.
SHEOUL ~ HADES ~ HELL ~ GRAVE means the same thing, Jesus used this word well and as for GEHENNA it is the condition of the dead where resurrection is not possible because God has deleted the memories of evildoers {Psalms 9:17} so Jesus taught his Jewish listeners that the same way they used to dump the things they don't want anymore into Gehenna that's how God will dump the death of evildoers among His people, they will not be remembered like Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is remembered till today.
But as for you who is not a descendant of Abraham God has no business with you at all unless you come into His plan through faith in what you have learned in the Bible otherwise you're DEAD already with no record with the God of Abraham!

Please explain the passage below for me. Please, don't digress.

Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into EVERLASTING FIRE, prepared for the devil and his angels:

MaxInDHouse:
What Jesus taught in what language?

We are not talking about language here. We are talking about the content of his teachings concerning hell. Experts were involved in translation of the Bible from the Hebrew and Greek language to English. And the original language are still available for scrutiny.

No sane man will go through the teachings of Jesus concerning hell and conclude he was just talking about the physical grave or a refuse dump in Israel. Go back and read again the first three gospel with an unbiased mind and come back and tell me that a place of torment called hell does not exist.

Yes, it doesn't make sense to the natural mind but it's scriptural.

If God could destroy the first world with water and save only 8 persons and also destroyed two cities, Sodom and Gomorrah with fire, why do you suppose that it's not possible that people can be eternally destroyed in a burning flame?

Just repent before it's too late. Otherwise, you will have regrets upon regrets.

The Importance of Walking in Divine Love - 14. (It Minimizes Gossips and Slanders).

"A perverse person spreads dissension, and a gossip separates the closest friends." (Proverbs 16:28, New English Translation).

There is nothing that destroys a church more than gossips and slanders. A gossip is someone who loves to discuss other people's private matters. And in most cases, it's always the negative things about the person that is being discussed. While a slanderer is someone who makes malicious comments about people with the intention of defaming their characters.

However, when we walk in divine love, both slanders and gossips are minimized. This can be achieved if the brethren are constantly taught on the need to desist from such acts. Just as the scripture says; "The one who goes about gossiping reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with someone who is always opening his mouth." (Proverbs 20:19, New English Translation).

Those who engage in gossips and slanders loves to talk too much. And these evil works thrive only when there is a listening ear. So, both the gossipper and the one who pays attention to gossips are both guilty. So, the best way to discourage gossips and slanders is to avoid giving audience to those indulged in it. The moment you perceive they are about to start, just excuse yourself out of the discussion or find ways to change the topic.

These vices destroys the church of Christ and give the devil opportunities to bring division and hatred among members in the church. Besides, it opens the door of attack on those involved in such acts. The attack can come in different ways ranging from health challenges to your business suffering setbacks. It can even lead to untimely death.

If you must gossip, focus on the good sides of people. Talk about what you like about them rather than attempting to run them down. Remember that we are members of the same family in Christ. Above all, it could make you a misfit for the kingdom of heaven. Thus, the scripture warns; "...That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment." (Matthew 12:36).

Prayer: Gracious and Merciful Father, may your name alone be glorified. I thank you for watching over me through the night hour and giving me the opportunity to witness another glorious day. Have mercy on me in manners and ways I have spoken negative words about my brethren. I declare that from this day henceforth, my lips will not utter gossips and slanders against my brethren and neighbours in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

Further Study: Psalms 101:5, 1st Timothy 3:11, Ephesians 4:31.

Smoking is the result of emptiness in man and that emptiness can only be filled by Christ.

When Jesus comes into your life, you don't need to smoke to feel high because the most high lives in you.

The states are actually in a better position to feed the prisoners. When this happens, non indigenes who commit crimes in other states can be convicted and deportedly shipped to their own states to serve their sentences. You can not abandon your job as parents and think other states should keep feeding your wayward children by other states.

They should also allow states to control their resources. You take away state's money and evade responsibility. It won't work.

Seun:
Fellow Nairalanders,

We have noticed the use of ethnic slurs and other derogatory names by a small but persistent group of political actors and trolls.

This practice of derogatory name-calling adds no value to the forum. It's bad for our mental health, our harmony as a community, and the reputation of Nairaland. It's simply toxic. Its presence and the presence of the people who use those slurs will not be missed.

Therefore I have decided to ban the practice entirely. I have instructed dominique, mukina2, Lalasticlala and Mynd44 to ban anyone who uses an ethnic slur or derogatory name on Nairaland. The antispam bot will also contribute to the effort. Please report any case that you see.

If this Pastor's God does not send anyone to hell, therefore this Pastor's God does not send anyone to heaven either.
This Pastor TWISTING his doctrine in public. .

Hades= the grave not hellfire.
The word "hellfire" is a man made fabrication,not holy scriptures.
2 Peter 2:6 & Matthew 24:37-39 is not rocket science.
Matthew 24:37-39, as it was in the days of Noah so it shall be, Jesus said.
Did fire torture those evildoers that time of Noah's?

MUMU RANTS
The doctrine dey confuse the Pastorpreneur sef.
Pastor says evildoers die & go to hellfire to be tortured forever & are later released for judgement ,in which realm?
Hellfire is thrown into lake of fire, hellfire yamutu


LYING Churchian,a person is how many souls?

Mark 3:4
And he says to them, Is it lawful in the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? to save a soul, or to kill? And they were silent"

Is it lawful to save a soul or to kill a soul?


LYING Pastorpreneur
The same hellfire that this Pastor said will be thrown into the lake of fire to yamutu.

Pastor, Why does your brain not tell you that your hellfire is not lake of fire?
Hellfire nah scam!

If you say I am a liar, then you are saying that Jesus lied cause I am relying on what he taught.

It happens. But most of the time, there are spiritual powers behind the delay. It's beyond medical explanation.

NNTR:
Please tell, what according to your understanding, do you know that, last, last, will happen to hell? In your reply please dont mistake hell for the Lake of fire though

Which guys?
Who are the guys that don't understand the perfection and unlimited power of God?

The same two questions I asked dearest beloved, Ken4Christ, which he give answers to, I' ll you too, the two simple questions, as seen below:

1. According to your understanding, do you really think that tormenting souls of human beings, in a way, that permanently continues and lasts forever, is something that God is looking forward to get pleasure from? Hmm?
2. According to your understanding, do you really believe that, ABBA, a good and loving Influencer, (i.e. God) will, non-stop barbecue burn human beings (i.e. human beings with souls and have intact flesh or bodies) and souls (i.e. human beings, with soul but are no more with flesh or bodies) in the lake of fire FOREVER? Hmm?

All what you typed here, is nothing other than pretentious balderdash. Sorry.

Matthew 10:28
And you should not be afraid of those killing the body but not being able to kill the soul.
Indeed rather you should fear the One being able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

Ezekiel 18:20a
The soul that sinneth, it shall die ...

1. What part of the meaning of the word 'kill' in Matthew 10:28, dont you understand or appreciate the meaning of?
2. What part in the meaning of the word 'die' in Ezekiel 18:20a, dont you understand or appreciate the meaning of. Hmm?
3. Who told you, where did you get that the devil has a soul? Hmm?
4. Do you know the core reason why satan and its demons (i.e. fallen celestial beings) are irredeemable? Tell me, then please, if you know

_{Personal text: Jesus is not a theologian. He is God who told stories.}

God does not send people to hell. Your decision does. Hell was prepared for the devil and his angels. But if you choose to ignore the warning of God's word, you shouldn't blame God. The choice is yours.

Trying to defend your preconceived opinion about hell while ignoring so many scriptures that affirms its existence is spiritual fraud.

Hell itself will be thrown into the Lake of Fire but only after it has released everyone in it for judgment.

No one can kill a soul. It can only be tormented.

The scripture which says that the soul that sinneth, it shall die is not referring to the immortal soul. Check the origin Hebrew word for the word soul used here, you will find out its different from the immortal soul.

Soul in this context refers to a person.

Check your dictionary for most words, you will find out that they have multiple meaning. So, it's wrong to just assume a particular word means the same thing in all context.

Maybe, you may have to go back to school to study English language.

This brainwashing by Rutherford and Russell is really damaging. They will suffer greater punishment in hell for confusing and misleading countless millions of people across the world.

The Importance of Walking in Divine Love - 13. (It Covers The Multitude of Sins).

"And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins." (1st Peter 4:.

The need for the church to walk in divine love cannot be overemphasized. Apostle Peter admonished the church to have fervent love amongst themselves. To have a fervent love means to have a deep or intense love. And he said that this love shall cover the multitude of sins.

The phrase, 'shall cover the multitude of sins' can be applied two ways. First, it means that we should be quick to forgive one another to the point that issue are settled without getting too much publicity. We have already mentioned this aspect of our love walk in a previous study.

The second way we can apply this phrase has to do with how we manage information about a brother or sister who has fallen into an error. We should never indulge in spreading such information to others as so many people do. Rather, find a way to restore the parties involved back to the faith. If you can't handle it, let your pastor know about it. If it's an act that requires a disciplinary measure, it should be done in such a way as not to lose the members involved.

Thus, Apostle Paul wrote; "Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted." (Galatians 6:1).

No one is above temptation. Never condemn your fellow brethren when they fall into errors. Even our Lord Jesus did not condemn the woman who was caught in the very act of adultery. Rather, he told her to go and sin no more - John 8:11.

Another good example of how love covers the multitude of sins is in the story of Joseph and Mary. Joseph discovered that Mary, the mother of Jesus was pregnant when as at that time, he had no carnal knowledge of her. By the law of Moses, she was supposed to be stoned to death if found guilty.

But because of the love Joseph had for Mary, he planned to secretly divorce her before he was told in a dream that the pregnancy was of the Holy Ghost. Most men would have acted otherwise. Mary would have been stoned to death even before she had the opportunity to defend herself.

So, don't judge or condemn your fellow brethren when they make mistakes. Don't also spread such information. Rather, do whatever you can to restore him or her back to the faith. Remember the scripture says that the devil is the accuser of the brethren. Anyone who condemns his fellow brethren is working for the devil. Don't give the devil an opportunity to take advantage of us, for we are not ignorant of his devices.

Prayer: Dear Father, I give you glory and honour due to your name. I thank you for your mercy that has kept me thus far. I pray that the love you have placed in our hearts will cover the multitude of sins of everyone of us in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

Further Study: John 8:1-11, Matthew 7:1-5.
