"The Nigerian government initially denied the Microsoft kingpin's application on the premise that they required proof he would not reside in Nigeria indefinitely, causing a strain on social services and a general nuisance for immigration."

I wonder what proof the immigration guys required.

Is this poster serious
Nigeria Safe? Where else can we find policemen and soldiers going on robbery operations with their uniforms? Where else can we find robbers casually robbing from car to car in a traffic jam? Where else can You find 'one chance' buses? Or a gang of robbers numbering over forty, storming a street with two buses and robbing every apartment?

Yes o! Naija is safe.

How could i have forgotten this one?
Great is thy Faithfullness! Think I'll Just post the entire song.

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.

Refrain: Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Refrain

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

Refrain

It has to be Amazing Grace.
Amazing Grace How sweet the sound/ That saved a wretch like me/ I once was lost but now I'm found/ Was blind but now i see.
I also love Heaven came down:
Oh what a wonderful, wonderful day, day i will never forget/ After I wandered in darkness away, Jesus my saviour i met/O what a tender compassionate friend,He met the need of my heart/Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling
He made all the darkness depart.

Heaven came down and glory filled my soul/When at the cross the Savior made me whole/My sins He washed away, and my night He turned to day,/Heaven came down and glory filled my soul.

I'll post more when i remember.

Bros, u sabi wetin u dey talk? The Largest LP gas depot in Nigeria (Lagos) has a capacity of 4000 Metric Tonnes. Most other depots in Lagos have capacity for 1000 MT. Where u wan store 45000 MT? Which Vessel you wan take carry am? abi u dey Joke? Even PMS sef no get vessels in Lagos for that volume. Talk less of gas!

This thread exists already

Suddenly this topic is banging!

Finally, people are actually seeing that its not the style and rhythm that determine the spirituality of a song. Style is just style. I know an older friend who believed strongly that christian music should soft just like Jim Reeves' "this world is not my own". Most of His collections contain Don Williams and Dan seals.

I agree with the disertation of Rapsody. And the sooner christians understand what christian music is all about the sooner we will have a complete experience in that area.

Reminds me of another topic on nairaland about Fuji Music in church. Backslider where u dey?

crazykid:
I agree with ThoniaSlim. Nigerian banks close very early, so you should have enough time to come home and do your daily chores. There is nothing really hectic in working in a bank.

crazykid:
Believe me it isn’t a joke.

Banks in Nigeria don’t operate for as long as 5: pm. So if she gets home 5:30pm, she can’t still make dinner for her husband and to other hosehold duties.

For couples to survive in Marriage they have to plan it properly.

Oh boy banks only close to customers at 4. By 6pm they are just leaving the office in V/I on a staff bus, only to get to say GFestac by 8.30 or 9. And I'm talking about the ordinary bankers. The 'special' bankers (including investment bankers) dont leave till 9pm after series of meetings.

women i wouldn't marry: Doctors, Nurses and Bankers.

The main Characteristic of a blind person? They cannot see.

Without doubt, Frank Edoho of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire'.

Backslider:
The devil is roaring again in the house God. Satan now is making the Church look like the World and the has the moral authority.

Fuji Music is demonic Music Like Hip hop.

Would you say we should Play JUJU Music in the Church? JUJU MEANS VOODOO . Let me tell those that think by being crafty you can convert a man you are making a great mistake.

Only Jesus can save not by the Craftiness of your heart. If you make it easy it does not mean that they will be transformed.

You can sing in your language not in the former pattern as if nothing has changed. When a man is born anew he knows that he must abandon all emblems song and thoughts of the former ways.

We the New Age Christians are a people that are very wicked and we know so much than our father. Satan deceived Eve because she wanted to be WISE we all fell from the grace.

Every thought wisdom or Education that is contrary to God must be thrown away. The bible has songs have we sang it ? There is devil dance disguised in so many forms and no HARD CORE RAPPER WANTS TO BE LIKE JOHN OR CHARLES WESLEY

@Backslider

1 Cor 9:19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. 20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; 21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. 22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.23 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.

Nah!! Season 5 ranks joint second eith season 3. Season 2 for me is still by far the best

If you want to know Gods mind on this look to the very beginning of creation. In the begining he made them one male and one female. He said a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife (not wives). One man and one woman become one flesh. In this union, there is no space for another person. Or else the one flesh entity wil be destroyed. The destruction of that 'one flesh' perfect union initiated by God (whether by polygamy or adultery) has caused most of the immorality problems in the world today.

See Gen 2:23-25; Matt 19:4-6; Mark 10:6-9.

lol!
haba pilgrim.1, dem get right to change mind o. evil can be (mis)interpreted in anyway to please the interpreter.

B'liv it or not, loosing to coventry was a blessing. Come january to may, when y'all are complaining about injuries and fixture congestion, we will be free to concentrate on the one we really want - the treble.

Capital NO

Really? I find it unscriptural that the catholic clergy (those who want to serve in God's house) should be forcd into celibacy.

I am amazed someone is complaining about being asked if she was a muslim. complaining about being invited to church etc. When muslims in some parts of the world ask this question they do it with a gun pointed to the christian. Did you read about those koreans kidnapped in Afghanistan? at least the christians asked the poster nicely, politely and with good intentions. same cannot be said of those mujahadeens in afghanistan or of osama. abi dem no be muslims?

I just want to understand.

ebos said 'It should also be taken into consideration that no portion of the scripture itself teaches that the Bible is the only source of our authority or fact or information.'

My question is what happens when there is a conflict between what the bible says and what these other sources of authority/fact/information says?

And thats this decade alone.

Oh Boy na bad wife o!
If person get bad wife 99.9% chance of going to hell be dat.

Bros Maddock, Keep your shirt on!!!
All I am saying is that saying any pastor is the best pastor in the world is the same thing as comparing one pastor with another. This is something the bible says we should not do. (See 2 Cor 10:12 ). Every Minister of the Gospel has His/Her own specific calling. Instead of saying 'best pastor' it makes more sense to say 'favorite pastor'.

@Monilo
Misconception? Really? How else will you explain a statement like this?

maddock:
Pastor Chris the best pastor in Nigeria,|africa and the whole world.QED

There is no criteria to determine the statement made by maddock. Actually nobody is even interesetd in a 'best pastor' award. God didn't institute one.

Statements like this one by maddock remind me of my deeper life brother Okababa.

Poor Infidel
All this gibberish he keeps panning out on this forum is just a sign of lost soul reaching out for help.

Lord God Almighty. The one who doesnt find pleasure in the death of sinners. Speak into the heart of Infidel. grant him the grace to have an encounter with your love.

thank you Jesus.

Really? Islam prohibits music? This is a first.
If its true (and i seriously doubt it is) it will be like prohibiting the human soul.

Oga Seun
For you to say you have a good ear for music and diss this song makes me shudder.
Th song is tight. Very tight. real good. Really love the instrumental. Those strings are cool. the rhythm is okay. the lyrics are cool. music and vocal arrangement sweet. cant u just feel that jazz effect on the vocal performance? wetin Seun sabi sef? Worthy of all the accolades its been recieving.

With all the hiphop and dancehall goin on, its about time we hear real music.

Only other song worth listening to right now is Asa's Fire on the Mountain.

Can somebody please refer to the topic? Dios and Infidel can be conveniently ignored.
Backslider can you back up your statements from scripture? This is the first i'm hearing this o.

woooo!!! Danger Diabolic
