Protein bawo?

Difficulty focusing/concentrating or brain fog could be result of deficiency of even the protein kind, I recently discovered.

Mikespecialone:
She’s still young and don’t worry she’ll catch up before she clocks 10, some kids are like that

The 5-year-old hear is already reading and writing and able to recite all of his jolly phonics. At age 6, me sef don dey read the newspaper for Nigeria. Please don't say OP should wait.

Op, make sure that child is getting enough protein in his diet every day abeg. Also, not a bad idea to get a doctor involved to make sure there is nothing to be concerned about. If e be say she dey dyslexic or something, now is equally a better time to discover that than later on.

Wait a minute..... is Kobojunkie a she , he or shim?

Typical religious sheeple... na my gender you wan carry for head now as if the hundreds before you wey don try that same foolishness got anywhere with it. Continue abeg so you can be added to the list like the other useless ones before you.

Starzo:
■ Quoting Bible upandan won't deflect from what you are. Continue wasting time ...your master is pleased. I pray it does not become too late for you

My master is most definitely pleased with me cause I am still here doing what He wants me to do while He keeps insisting, "Don't worry!".

Now, back to the issue at hand. Again, Which God? Hope you don't mean the same God who referred to these men as thieves who come to steal, to kill, and to destroy His flock - Ezekiel 34 vs 1- 21 & John 10 vs 7 - 16? Christianity is indeed a religion of serious mindfuckery! How can you be for a God whose teachings and commandments you blatantly defy by your every action?

AbuTwins:
■ If you'd open your eyes well you'd have seen the type of "I am" verses in John is special. The "I am" sayings in the Gospel of John are significant statements where Jesus uses the phrase "I am" followed by a metaphorical description, such as "I am the bread of life" or "I am the light of the world." These statements are unique to the Gospel of John and are not found in the other Gospels. Emphasis on "I am" followed by a metaphor!
■ Even in John I didn't include " Before Abraham, I am! Because it's not followed by a metaphor!

Jesus is equally recorded in the other Gospels as using similar significant statements. "I am the Son of God,", "I am gentle and humble in Spirit,", and " I am forcing demons out of people,"... are equally statements made by Jesus Christ regarding His person and abilities that are recorded in the other gospels.

2. I see! And this insistence that the entries in John's Gospel are followed by the metaphorical is of personal conviction(interpretation) and has nothing to do with that intended by the author, right?

AbuTwins:
■ You too dey write many nonsense this days o!

Look who's talking!

Starzo:
■ You are claiming to do the work of Christ by attacking every single Christian and Christianity.... it's either you're deliberately and purposely being mischievous or seriously mindfucking yourself. For your sake, I hope it's the former. It would mean you're not a complete dunce. Whichever way it is,one thing is clear, there's nothing christlike about the 'work' you're doing. But your master is pleased tho

Christianity, like the religion of the Pharisees, has nothing to do with Jesus Christ. And like Jesus Christ called out the lies of the Pharisees before you, so also, I call out your Christian lies.

Now, back to the issue at hand. Again, Which God? Hope you don't mean the same God who referred to these men as thieves who come to steal, to kill, and to destroy His flock - Ezekiel 34 vs 1- 21 & John 10 vs 7 - 16? Christianity is indeed a religion of serious mindfuckery! How can you be for a God whose teachings and commandments you blatantly defy by your every action?

NiRfreak:
■ So Kobojunkie is a GayLORD....OMG....see person wey I dey follow argue scriptures. No wonder he's always twisting and mixing and turning every scriptures up and down. May God deliver you. If I told you to do 30 days fast to deliver urself from the Gay spirit tormenting u now...u will start quoting scriptures wrongly.....

Just see the ramblings of a religious nutjob who fancies that his religious delirium makes him a better person than OP. Nonsense!

Bennycollins:
You are wrong to say all of them are fake. All of them can't be fake.

All of them including our dear OP here are fake. They have never experienced God let alone Jesus Christ. Christianity, like other religions, is merely a scam platform that they use to scam those whom they place lower on the religious totem pole.

kolnel:
Is it not funny that those principles only work in under-developed countries? The only antidote to poverty is work. Unfortunately, Nigeria does not have a lot to offer hence why everyone has to rely on God.

Rely on God ke? Their gods are instead their many gods of men whom these schemes only seem to work out for at the end of the day.

rexbuton:
THE Purpose of Kingdom wealth is for the propagation of the gospel. Money is needed to organize crusades, rent stadiums, print tracts, do TV broadcasts, and also supply physical needs of the sheep such as welfare, schools building and renovation, medical outreaches, community youth programs. These involve money, God owns ALL silver and gold, and chooses his friends to be custodians.
Will any of you give your estate to your enemy to run?
The principal thing remains seeking God and his Kingdom first, and all other things shall be added. That is why they are arranged in order of importance, but people are focused on Tithing! When last did you send money to your parents? When last did you go out for evangelism? When last did you fast and pray for people to give their lives to christ? When last did you fast and pray for a revival? Children of God, let’s not be babies! Our God is the same God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, he doesn’t change!

Stop telling these silly lies! You folks are always so full of these tales you tell that have no connection whatsoever to what is contained in Scripture.

rexbuton:
■ Are Christians entitled to the blessings of Abraham?

Reminds me of the Pharisees, the religious men of Jesus Christ's time asserting that they too were entitled to the promise of Abraham. Recall what Jesus Christ told them in John 8 vs 31 - 44?

Your religion of Christianity is modeled after the religion of the Pharisees and Sadducees — Judaism—, so guess what Jesus Christ's answer to you would equally be?

rexbuton:
Do not be deceived, the word of God cannot be broken. There are specific rules for Kingdom wealth ~ this is wealth that defies logic and explanation. Here are the keys. The points below are for children of the kingdom of God only. Thanks.
....
Shalom

These are all lies!

Starzo:
■ The 'kind of work' he has you doing is you attacking every Christian and calling Christianity(attempting to being Christ-like) a stupid mindfuckery...why am i not surprised?. Even the devil quoted scriptures to tempt Jesus..... you're actually the one who's being seriously mindfucked
■ You are right in one thing tho, i.e, somebody actually has you on leech working 24/7 for him. The scriptures you deliberately misquote everytime even describes him with one term, THE ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN.
■ Before you reply with misquoted scriptures in vain attempt to defend your misguided tantrums, properly analyze your actions and behavior with an open mind and from a place of no RESENTMENTS. If you can actually do this, you'd see how far off the rails you have gone. Maybe then you'll start making necessary adjustments.

The devil does not quote the bible abeg! Rather, he does the same thing you Christians do which is to quote verses out of context to assert your own interpretations in place of the writer's intended message. Why else do you think Jesus Christ directly quoted from the Law of Moses all three times in response to Him?

2. I am not leeching from anyone at all same way Jesus Christ and his disciples were not leeching from anyone even while they did not do earthly work for the whole period of their lives from the time they met Jesus Christ.

3. With your religious kind, I don't bother pointing out the fact that you are merely interested in quoting scripture like the devil in order to further your selfish intentions all of the time as it is obvious even to you that you do that.

Now, back to the issue at hand. Again, Which God? Hope you don't mean the same God who referred to these men as thieves who come to steal, to kill, and to destroy His flock - Ezekiel 34 vs 1- 21 & John 10 vs 7 - 16? Christianity is indeed a religion of serious mindfuckery! How can you be for a God whose teachings and commandments you blatantly defy by your every action?

ebosed:
After assessing him, please pray for him, that he may become perfect like you.

Where do you get this idea that you can pray a person into Holiness abeg? No be these same gods of men lie to una say una fit do so? Even Jesus Christ was not able to pray Judas holy, e come to be you wey go fit to pray holiness into the life of another man? Tueh!

Jeferious:
Move wetin out of the country? For pikin wey we never sure say I'm go be better person in future?
Even at that, na so e easy to move person out of the country? As per say na biscuit money we dey talk about here!

In Nigeria, it is very easy to move humans out of the country. Every day, children are kidnapped across the borders with most of you not even batting an eye at that.

AbuTwins:
■ In summary, while the "I am" sayings in the Gospel of John provide valuable insights into the theological perspectives of the early Christian community, their direct connection to the historical Jesus is a matter of scholarly debate. The unique theological emphasis and literary style of the Gospel of John suggest that these sayings may reflect the beliefs and interpretations of the Johannine community rather than verbatim statements spoken by Jesus during his ministry.

AbuTwins:
The approximate number of years after Jesus's death that each Gospel was written is as follows:
- **Mark**: Written around 35-40 years after Jesus's death.
- **Matthew and Luke**: Written around 45-60 years after Jesus's death.
- **John**: Written around 60-80 years after Jesus's death.
These are rough estimates based on scholarly research and historical analysis of the texts. The exact timelines can vary depending on different interpretations and sources.
No wonder you'll find all the "I am" verses in the Gospel of John! The lower you go the more edited it seems!

There is no evidence that any of the books were written after 70AD. Even John's book of Revelation was most likely written before 70AD given that it contained details of the destruction that was to come upon Jerusalem at the end of the age— ~70AD.

jazzman7711:
■ There were no writers named ‘Matthew’, ‘Mark’, ‘Luke’ and ‘John’. Those names were simply attached to ANONYMOUSLY written texts. So nobody actually knows who wrote the New Testament. It’s completely anonymous! The texts materialised from goodness-knows-where roughly 70 years after ‘Jesus’ had supposedly ‘ascended to heaven’. All this is well known to the church, ie the Vatican etc. People are just being misled with this christianity of a thing.
■ How can you be worshiping something and yet you don’t know who wrote the book?

There is no truth to the claims in bold. It is more likely that the Gospels were written before the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD which is less than 40 years after the death of Jesus Christ - 31 - 33 AD. Most of the claims made by the so-called Church Fathers of the religion of Christianity (the Vatican included) regarding when the books were written are not to be trusted.

2. That is a question you ought to direct at religious individuals who worship ideas without proof.

Michael547:
■ I am telling you what Jesus said as black and white and you say that is not the interpretation. So what does the statement 'the kingdom of God is with you' mean? Interprete abeg.

Are you off you rockers or something? Are you high?

You are telling me what when you have instead been asking questions with a fixation on location when the passage clearly says it is not about a here or a there(no earthly location)?

35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If it did, my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders. No, my kingdom is not an earthly one.”

...

20 Some of the Pharisees asked Jesus, “When will God’s kingdom come?” Jesus answered, “God’s kingdom is coming, but not in a way that you can see it.
21 People will not say, ‘Look, God’s kingdom is here!’ or ‘There it is!’ No, God’s kingdom is here with you.” - Luke 17 vs 20 - 21

Imagine this kain religious mago mago!

Anyways, let me focus on something else while you two figure your rejection of what Jesus Christ says here out for yourselves.

Aemmyjah:
■ How do you understand Jesus words to the Pharisees? That the kingdom of God is with his opposers?

LOL.... Your confusion is not my own abeg! Focus on comprehending what Jesus Christ instead said abeg!

35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If it did, my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders. No, my kingdom is not an earthly one.”

...

20 Some of the Pharisees asked Jesus, “When will God’s kingdom come?” Jesus answered, “God’s kingdom is coming, but not in a way that you can see it.
21 People will not say, ‘Look, God’s kingdom is here!’ or ‘There it is!’ No, God’s kingdom is here with you.” - Luke 17 vs 20 - 21

Michael547:
■ So why are you now denying what he said after showing me from the Bible.

Now you resort to lying? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Adiola:
Helinues how body na

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Michael547:
■ Na you dey deny wetin Jesus talk na.....you say Jesus talk say the kingdom of God dey with me. And na on top earth I dey. So where you think say the kingdom go dey?

I didn't say anything though.

35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If it did, my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders. No, my kingdom is not an earthly one.”

...

20 Some of the Pharisees asked Jesus, “When will God’s kingdom come?” Jesus answered, “God’s kingdom is coming, but not in a way that you can see it.
21 People will not say, ‘Look, God’s kingdom is here!’ or ‘There it is!’ No, God’s kingdom is here with you.” - Luke 17 vs 20 - 21

Instead, Jesus Christ said and Jesus Christ answered!

Aemmyjah:
■ Will Jesus contradict himself

You think both statements made by Jesus Christ are contradictory?

Aemmyjah:
■ Is the kingdom of God here on earth or in heaven

Again,

35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If it did, my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders. No, my kingdom is not an earthly one.”

...

20 Some of the Pharisees asked Jesus, “When will God’s kingdom come?” Jesus answered, “God’s kingdom is coming, but not in a way that you can see it.
21 People will not say, ‘Look, God’s kingdom is here!’ or ‘There it is!’ No, God’s kingdom is here with you.” - Luke 17 vs 20 - 21

That you are having a hard time comprehending or even accepting His Truth has nothing to do with me.

Michael547:
■ Oga na wa for you oo....you say kingdom of God no get location. But you say it is with me....abi me sef no get location? No be on top earth I dey again?

I didn't say the things written in those Scriptures! So, if you wish to reject what Jesus Christ said of His very own Kingdom, then say that you reject Jesus Christ in this. Simple!

Aemmyjah:
■ Na simple yes/no question wey you suppose answer

So, the answer wey Jesus Christ Himself give no good enough for you?

Michael547:
■ Ok the kingdom is here with me, agreed. I am on earth. Are we to conclude that the kingdom is on earth with me? Yes or no Oga?

And still with the fixation on location, I see!

35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If it did, my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders. No, my kingdom is not an earthly one.”

Pay attention to Jesus Christ and what He said.

Michael547:
So where is the kingdom na?....you said it is with me. Am I not on earth again?

Again with the fixation on a location . Reminds me yet again of the question asked Jesus Christ by the Pharisees, the religious leaders of His time.

20 Some of the Pharisees asked Jesus, “When will God’s kingdom come?” Jesus answered, “God’s kingdom is coming, but not in a way that you can see it.
21 People will not say, ‘Look, God’s kingdom is here!’ or ‘There it is!’ No, God’s kingdom is here with you.” - Luke 17 vs 20 - 21

Michael547:
■ Ok.....so God's kingdom is with me here on earth abi?
■ Does that also mean that Michael Jackson is also on earth in God's kingdom?

35 Pilate said, “I’m not a Jew! It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me. What have you done wrong?”
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If it did, my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders. No, my kingdom is not an earthly one.”

2. Always focus on what Jesus Christ in fact said.
