Audio rice ahead of the October 1st protest date. Round of palliative-style governance don enter round 2!

ALTERNATEID:
■ I can only speak about where I live.

The cost of fuel in some parts of river's state is Naira 2000 even with you paying only Naira 900 pre-Dangote supply. So, if post-Dangote supply, you continue to pay Naira 900 in Abuja, what price do you think the marketers would sell the same in River State?

ALTERNATEID:
■ The official price at most filling station here in Abuja is still around N900 so what’s your point?

Is the price of that same fuel the same across all of Nigeria as well?

ALTERNATEID:
■ NNPC will sell below N900 to marketers so that they can sell to Nigerians at around N900.

You dey Nigeria so? Or you mean say NNPCL go dey pay marketers subsidy so they can charge you only Naira 900?

■ What a significant exploration of our celestial companions! The angels, these divine messengers, bridge the gap between heaven and earth, reminding us of our spiritual nature and God's infinite love.
Throughout history, we have seen how these celestial beings have played crucial roles in the unfolding of God's plan. From the cherubim guarding Eden to Gabriel's annunciation to Mary, angels have been faithful servants of the Almighty.
Yet, we must remember that our fascination with angels should not overshadow our relationship with God. They are not to be worshipped or prayed to, but rather serve as examples of perfect obedience and devotion.
In our modern world, where many seek comfort in the supernatural, it is essential to ground our understanding of angels in biblical truth. Their existence reminds us of the vast spiritual realm beyond our physical senses, inviting us to deepen our faith and trust in the Divine.
The concept of angels can provide comfort and hope, especially in times of distress. They symbolize protection and guidance, offering solace to those who feel lost or afraid.

Yet another dollop of religious bullsheet!

■ It was never intentional thank God you know it today. Always be grateful. Liar.

OK!
So again, the Watchtowers folks are no different from you though, so stop this delusion that you are somehow better than them. You are all the same, filled with nothing other than pretty much the same religious bullsheet which is all you have to spew when confronted.

So, NNPCL's price is the high margin of the price it gave Nigerians less than 2 weeks ago.

On Tuesday, September 3rd, the NNPC raised the price of PMS from its former prices of between N568-N617 per liter to between N855- N897 per liter.

Actress Eniola Badmus took to her Instastories to share her two cents on the current state of the Nigerian economy.
According to her, the fact that the rate of imports has decreased while the rate of export has increased, shows that the economy is expanding. Read her piece below

What in the world is this one saying for Pete's sake?

Tetraozonaitera:
■ It is called bullshit not bullsheet. I first thought it was a typo but typing it over and over again shows your ignorance. You've always been a clown. Keep "clowning"

Always deflecting but never of real substance...

I have been intentionally typing the word "bullsheet" for many years now. You are the first to make an issue of it. Know why? Look, attacking my person will not change the fact which is that like the Watchtowers folks, you are all filled with nothing but religious bullsheet that amounts to absolutely nothing when all is said and done.

Tetraozonaitera:
■ Shut the fcck! Like the Bullshits the Watchtower implanted into your mendula ?? You've always discharged stupidity on NL since your monika started existing.

The Watchtowers folks are no different from you though, so stop this delusion that you are somehow better than them. You are all the same, filled with nothing other than pretty much the same religious bullsheet which is all you have to spew when confronted.

Super tucano cannot be used anyhow. There is agreement limiting their use against terrorists only. Before it can be used against the bandits, the government must declare them to be a terrorist group and no government has done that in Nigeria. If the NAF use the tucano against the bandits without being cleared by the US, they could deactivate them and put them out of use.

TEXT:"And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him."- Genesis 32:1
Angels are messengers, sent to protect and proclaim how people can enter the place of life they were meant to flourish within. They want human to trust and follow the one sending the message, to know how to live where heaven and earth overlap - where God and humans are in peace. According to the Bible, they are part of the world God created. They are sometimes referred to as the host of heaven.
"Thou, even thou, art LORD alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee." (Nehemiah 9:6).
Moreover, in the New Testament, Paul, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, writes:
"For by him where all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in the earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:" (Colossians 1:16).
While these Scripture verses suggest that God created angels, the Bible also suggests that they do not exist, the way we humans do! Angels are spirits:
"But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?" (Hebrews 1:13-14).
Furthermore, when Jesus appears to his disciples, he asserts that spirits do not have bodies like he does:
"Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have." (Luke 24:39).
Angels are usually invisible to humans, unless God makes them visible. However, time and time again, angels took on a bodily form and appear to various people in the Bible:

This is all nothing but conjured-up religious bullsheet!

Youareforgiven:
I will say of the Lord Jesus Christ
✝ Psalms 91:2
"I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust."
What are you saying of the Lord Jesus? Christianity is a relationship with our living Redeemer. Majority acts as if Jesus Christ our God is dead. We acts as if Jesus Christ is an inanimate object. Most of us acts as if God is up there, while we are down here with no connection whatsoever. ✝ Matthew 16:15
"He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?"
What do say of Christ Jesus? Who is Christ Jesus to you? The way we speak subconsciously, we think Jesus Christ is far away from us. Jesus is nearer than the air we breathe. Learn to communicate properly with the Lord God. Address the Lord properly in your communication and speech. Communicate with Jesus Christ as if He is here because, indeed He is. ✝ Matthew 28:20
"Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.Amen."
I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge. The Lord is not a stranger... Say of the Lord Jesus what you want him to be for you. Jesus Christ is a blank check unto us. The Lord Jesus wants that good and righteous life for you. He delights in your prosperity. He is a Shepherd and you will not want if you accept him as your shepherd✝ Psalms 23:1
"A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want."
Address the Lord Jesus as your healer and see your health restored. ✝ Exodus 15:26
"And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that HEALETH thee."
Address the Lord as your wisdom and you will see yourself acting wisely. My Lord Jesus Christ is the solution to whatever ever you are going through. He is Mr Fixer with infinity of experience in His resume. No one is more qualified to handle that problem than Jesus Christ the blessed.

This is nothing but more religious bullsheet!

■ I've been wallowing in depression for several months now.
I have finally decided to leave my marriage. I started by distancing myself emotionally cos the whole marriage thing just didn't seem to be going anywhere.
My in-laws are all against me now. According to them I'm too stubborn for refusing to live in a family house.
Deep down I know I could never. There are too many reasons for this.
My own family is upset. It's been nine years now and they will back whatever decision I take.
I just need to overcome this depression so I can be productive again.

Are you still in the marriage or what? If you have already left the marriage, then best you begin to work on truly accepting the reasons why you had to leave. You cannot move forward if you don't first accept the reasons for which you had to leave were valid and for your own good. The reason you are likely depressed may have to do with you holding on to the shame and guilt of your leaving, forgetting that there should be no shame or guilt in doing the right thing for oneself.

■ Nigerians with dollars. It should be obvious. Nigeria’s income from crude hasn’t really dropped off. Our population has doubled and Nigerians want imported things. This is why the naira has crashed. The politicians and top civil servants are making more money now than ever before.

Wanting imported things isn't bad at all. The Naira did not crash because of that. It crashed because of the many anti-people & anti-business policies of its government along with the massive weight of corruption bearing down from all sides.

Samesame247:
■ Any remedy in sight? It would get worse

I don't even like to think about it at all because what these people have unleashed may take generations to resolve.

Tianamen1:
■ I believe the interest rate on the bond is 9.75 per cent annually for five years. If a bond holder keeps the bond to maturity, he/she will earn over 60% interest in five years. This is open theft of Nigeria’s wealth.

Who are those purchasing those bonds in the current economic state that Nigeria is in?

SuperEagles:
■This is fact n nothing but the truth. Tinubu his son n wife are obviously brain dead.

They are far from braindead. They have successfully cowered over 200 million people into accepting their dastardly plan. That is what any brain-dead person or group can achieve.

Samesame247:
Nigerian youths have no jobs..

Very sad! Look out what potentially intelligent minds have been reduced to all because those who came before them never really thought about them and their welfare, to begin with.

Seriously, I truly do not know why Nigerians are not right now out in the streets, en masse, calling for the impeachment of Tinubu.

AntiChristian:
■ My question is not that stressful! Why stress your answer this much? Is accepting wages for preaching forbidden according to Paul? Is it forbidden according to Jesus? Just a Yes or No answer and maybe one line in each case and we round up the thread!

But I more than answered your "not that stressful" question! Paul already answered your "not that stressful" question in that passage from which you lifted your one line out of context. Even Jesus Christ, whom Paul attests to be His Savior gave a clear enough answer to your "not that stressful" question. So, why do you not accept the fact that Paul asserted the same answer as Jesus Christ in response to your "not that stressful" question?

AntiChristian:
■ Is accepting wages for preaching forbidden according to Paul? Is it forbidden according to Jesus?

Paul is not the Law; the Law of God in the Kingdom of God is Jesus Christ. And as Paul asserted in the context of that passage which you quoted from, those who are under Jesus Christ do not use the right given instead to those who are under the Old Law of Moses. The Law under Jesus Christ is entirely different from the Old Law of Moses.

Jesus Christ did not tell any of His followers to accept wages from anyone as His follower. He said, those who follow Him no longer work for food that perishes— wages of this world from your many jobs/careers/business, etc., — but rather for food that endures to eternity — righteousness - John 6 vs 25 - 35.

AntiChristian:
■ Paul says in another verse:
If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much for us to reap a material harvest from you? (1 Corinthians 9 :11)
Paul's own is to collect them wages, harvest, money, Kudi, ego,... !!!
To pay wages or not to pay?

Read what Paul in fact said.

8 These aren’t just my own thoughts. God’s law says the same thing.
9 Yes, it is written in the Law of Moses: “When a work animal is being used to separate grain, don’t keep it from eating the grain.”[a] When God said this, was he thinking only about work animals? No.
10 He was really talking about us. Yes, that was written for us. The one who plows and the one who separates the grain should both expect to get some of the grain for their work.
11 We planted spiritual seed among you, so we should be able to harvest from you some things for this life. Surely that is not asking too much.
12 Others have this right to get things from you. So surely we have this right too. But we don’t use this right. No, we endure everything ourselves so that we will not stop anyone from obeying the Good News of Christ. - 1 Corinthians 9 vs 8 - 12

The right in question is expressed in the Law of Moses for all who work in the Temple. And that is what Paul was merely pointing out there. — the right of the work ox to eat from the grain he threshes. Paul acknowledges that entry in the Old Law of Moses. However, he did that to deliberately point out that in Jesus Christ, that right does not apply.

Paul never said he collected wages, neither did he suggest that any man do so using the name of Jesus Christ.

Cc Kobojunkie what do you have to say about this

God of Israel, the one you call YHWH, made it abundantly clear that His Laws —Jesus Christ included— applies only to those who are born from their mother's womb of the blood of Jacob i.e. the children of Israel. So, when a bunch of ignorant Nigerians pretends that what YHWH said to His chosen people somehow applies to them as well simply on the basis that their scammers-in-the-lords told them so, then you ought to see them for what they really are, a bunch of deluded desperate souls who would cling to any lie out there to think themselves relevant where there is none— relevance— to be had for them.

ItuExchange:
↪Speaking on the issue of pastors owing private jets; Olu Johnson said that it was of necessity for some pastors to own such, as it was not to showoff but rather to propagate the gospel of the kingdom.
“Sincerely, I do not blame pastors that have private jet in our time and season. Pastor Adeboye is busier than the president of Nigeria – the president of Nigeria oversees only this nation, I don’t know if we can know how many nations Pastor Adeboye is overseeing from Redemption Camp.
“The man is overseeing 197 nations: I have missed some of our very important meetings where I am the host for flight schedules; if I had the means, maybe I would have hired a flight and wouldn’t have missed those programmes. Some institutions and individuals in this nation have their private jets; if the work of a pastor has become enormous like the work of Pastor Adeboye or Oyedepo, I sincerely subscribe that if they can afford it or the church can afford it; it is necessary.” – Rev. Olu Johnson

He basically compared himself to the CEO of Nigeria meaning he is quite aware that religion is the business of building and maintain of empires here on earth — the kingdoms of men unto their egos—for these scammers-in-the-lords.

As for their gullible followers...who knows if they will ever really get a clue as many refuse to see what is right in front of them all of the time.

∆ I'm surprised House rep could see this fast. But failed to arrest those championing Igbo eviction from Lagos. Lagospedia is yet to be arrested and many of them.

Just imagine!

AntiChristian:
■Where is it explained clearly?
■ Who did Jesus tell anything about grace and then works which contradicts one another?

1. My first post provides you the answers.

2. You only think they contradict each other because before now you never realized that this Gospel preached almost 2000 years ago offered 2 separate salvation to the Lost sheep of Israel. Your understanding of things comes from the narrative that is pedaled by the religious people, the non-Israelites whom Jesus Christ clearly said would ruin and tear down that which is Holy if it were given to them. So, you have no one to blame for your confusion here.
