NoContract:
So Jesus is now God? Or a [lesser] god?

I need your viewpoint. OP!

Christians confusing each other since 11 C.E


Jesus is God! Period.
One day, He will appear in the sky, riding on a swift
cloud, shining like the sun, enforcing judgment on
the earth. He is the Alpha & Omega. He is the Lion & the
Lamb. He is the most merciful & most
compassionate. The holy One. The Almighty. He
wraps Himself in light. He is beautiful beyond
comprehension. He is indescribable, unsearchable,
uncontainable, unchangeable, the ancient One, the I
Am.... Human mind cannot understand God, you cannot
put God in your small mold. He is way bigger than
we can ever imagine.

BRAV0O: I've always respect you folks on that and is there any nigerians that don't pay igbo people homage ? Wise up okay ? Av live in niger delta I always respect your brothers when I was there ' I stand for one nigeria all the way but what is it with you people always hating on yoruba ? Huh ? Ain't that funny to you ?

People that accommodate you , people that always secretly protect you , ain't that make you folks always appear cowards

You see maybe you people don't even know what you want ?

I stand for one Nigeria too and I am an igbo man. And igbos don't hate yorubas, maybe one or two ppl do; I am sure dat one or two yorubas don't like igbos dat much. Its wrong to draw to a conclusion like dat. For instance, one of your brothers came to my house & told us he wants 2 marry my sis. We asked if he's a christian & if he loves d girl. That's all. We gave them our blessing, they'r living happily today. So its not right to stay in one corner of d world & draw conclusions based on what u're experiencing there. Igbos are great ppl, we love our neighbours, we don't hate. Don't use d tribal e-war on nairaland to judge, its not fair. I rest my case.

Chuka is one of the youngest MPs in the UK having been introduced into British politics by the current Labour Party leader, Ed Miliband, while he was in his 20s.

It was Milband that helped him become an MP and later made him his Parliamentary Private Secretary before he was promoted to the Shadow Cabinet in October 2011. He is tipped to become Miliband’s successor and could become the Prime Minister should the Labour Party win next year’s election.

Chuka, however, claims to hate the comparison of him and Obama which he terms the “construct of lazy journalists.” He sharply divides opinion in British politics. Good-looking, articulate, new-media-savvy and a good orator.

According to FT Magazine, he is not universally popular among his own colleagues, who see more style than substance. “He just has a knack of alienating people,” said one experienced Labour MP. “He is probably the most natural communicator I’ve seen since Tony Blair. The problem is that each week he has fewer supporters than he did at the start of the week.”

Even potential allies recount stories of apparent slights or snubs. A senior party figure says, “Chuka has put people’s backs up. They feel he is inaccessible.” Another long-serving MP adds, “The idea of learning the trade first is only for mere mortals, not for him.” Peter Mandelson, the former Labour business secretary who played a key role in Blair’s rise through to the top, thinks the explanation for this is quite simple, “Envy plays a big part in politics,” he says.

Like Blair, Chuka sometimes connects better with those beyond his own circle. John Cridland, head of the CBI employers’ group, calls him “a guy with whom we can do business.” Andrew Tyrie, Tory Chair of the Commons Treasury Committee, say: “He’s extremely talented and charming.” Andrew Adonis, a former Labour minister, sums up his cross-party appeal: “The best politicians are those who look outwards not inwards.”

At a point Bennett was also the owner of the Rangers International Football Club of Enugu, the darling of the Igbo people.

When quizzed about his father on Sky News, he had this to say: “There was a lot of speculation in Nigeria at the time around his death. He was a national political figure standing on an anti-corruption ticket and refused to bribe anybody.

“We don’t really talk about it because it is not going to bring him back but I think he would be bowled over that his son is now a politician just like him.”

Chuka, an English and French Law graduate from the University of Manchester, who also holds a Master’s degree from Nottingham Law School, says his interest in politics was shaped by seeing extreme poverty while visiting his father’s relatives in Nigeria and the social divide in his own Streatham constituency in the UK. He says that he is “not super-religious” but that his soft-left values are “rooted in my Christianity.”

The 35-year-old Labour Party Member of Parliament, however, has two hurdles to cross if he is to make history in the UK. This is because in the UK, for one to become the Prime Minister, the person must first be a Member of Parliament, the person’s party must win majority of seats out of the 560 seats in the House of Commons during the parliamentary elections and the person must be the leader of his party.

Presently, Chuka is the Member of Parliament for Streatham, a position he has held since 2010 but must re-contest in 2015 and win to retain the seat.

He is also the Shadow Business Secretary, a position held by a member of Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition. The duty of the office holder is to scrutinise the actions of the government’s Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills and develop alternative policies. The office holder is a member of the Shadow Cabinet.

According to the UK Telegraph, Chuka is rumoured to have the strong support of a former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, who was also a Labour Party leader.

According to the British newspaper, when asked if he was Blair’s anointed candidate, Chuka said, “I really don’t know anything about that.” However, when he was pressed further whether he aspired to head his party, he said, “I don’t entertain any discussion beyond winning the election next year. That would be completely hypocritical of me. To start thinking about hypothetical scenarios would be totally indulgent. All my energy is focused on winning the election, and so should everyone’s. It will be very close.”

If history repeats itself as it is being predicted by British political observers, Chuka, who is also a six-foot tall lawyer like Obama, could become the first black Prime Minister in the UK.

Chuka’s life story is perhaps a better guide to his future political direction. It is the story of a rise from the streets of South London (scene of some of Britain’s worse race riots in the 1980s) to the parliament. But it is not the story that some might expect.

His father, Bennett, was a Nigerian labourer, who arrived in Britain in the sixties with one suitcase and no money. Having borrowed the fare from Liverpool to London, he worked in a carwash, became a successful businessman and died in a car crash when his son was 13.

Bennett began an import-export business trading with Nigeria and was starting to make a decent living when he met Patricia Milmo, a solicitor, at a London party. She happened to be the daughter of Sir Helenus Milmo, a Cambridge-educated High Court judge and a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Nazi trials. They later got married, a rare combination during a time of high social inequality and racism.

Chuka believed his father was killed because he refused to indulge in corrupt practices when he was running for the governorship of Anambra State during the administration of former military dictator, General Ibrahim Babangida (retd.).

Bennett died after his car ran into a lorry carrying logs along the Onitsha-Owerri highway in Anambra. Bennett had been splitting his time between London and Nigeria – where he unsuccessfully ran for the governorship of Anambra State and had taken a stand against bribery.

A Nigerian, Chuka Umunna, could make history by becoming the first black Prime Minister of the United Kingdom replacing David Cameron in 2015. Chuka who was born and bred in the UK was born in 1978. His late father, Bennett, hailed from Anambra State while his Irish mother, Patricia, is a solicitor.

Co-incidentally, Chuka shares startling similarities with the United States President, Barack Obama, who is the first black President of the world’s most powerful nation.

For instance, Chuka is of mixed race, being the child of a Nigerian father and an Irish mother while Obama is also of mixed race, being the offspring of a white American woman and a Kenyan father. Also Chuka’s father, Bennett, was killed in a mysterious car accident in Nigeria in 1992 while Obama’s father was killed in a car accident in Kenya in 1982.

Those that are left behind will be required to take the mark of the beast.
"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."
Rev 13:16,17

You mean 3 12V 200Ah batteries?!
That is TOO much for just charging laptop and lighting Especially if it is a 500watts inverter u are hooking up to it
I NEVER said you should connect the batteries in SERIES, i said connect them in PARALLEL.

Yes 3 12v 200ah battery.
Sorry I meant parallel,
and d panel is 80w.
well d batteries are fairly used, I didn't buy them. I got them frm an uncle who bought new ones to replace those. I tested d batteries with digital batt tester and it says they are fair. I also got one panel 80w from him. He was d one who suggested I shld get a small inverter, like 500w...due to d cost, inverters are costly here in abj.
Yes, d inverter in d pic is same with d one. I'm yet to purchase it, though.

But wat abt d amperes of the 3 batteries which equals 600. Will it tell on d inverter, since its a small one. Pls assist me. God bless.
