Osungbade Osinbanjo with his mentor Adeboye have sold Christians to Islam.
That's why the country is in recession, we are being led by rogues and illiterate rogues

Osibanjo is a Muslim Puppet

The electoral trend from the inception of this Great Nation has been that- there should be a Muslim-Christian or better still Christian-Muslim ticket. The reason for such is to foster balance between the two religious groups.

No nation is like Nigeria anywhere in the world. The nation is split equally on a 30-15-55 Muslim-pagan-Christian ratio. To maintain the balance of the Nation and to allay fears of domination there should always be a christian-muslim balance. That balance has been upset and christians in the North are bearing the brunt.
The APC were able to play false games by simply taping our eyes. In reality what they wanted was Buhari-Tinubu ticket. However they met very stiff resistance. In a bid to carry out their insidious motives they simply enthroned a puppet who would not raise alarm over a Sharia bill or the ostensible marginalization of Christians in appointment.

The effective Vice President as of today is Bola Ahmed Tinubu and it behooves all like-minded lovers of truth and national adhesion to condemn the amalgam. The 2015 electoral ticket was simply a Muslim-Muslim ticket and Osibanjo was a veil with which our eyes were covered.

If the recent revelation as to his nomination by Tinubu does not justify the assertion that he is a mere puppet, the half-hearted and cowardly posture toward the Sharia bill passage should clear up any lingering doubts. What Christian minorities need at this point in time is a candidate who would restore balance to the nation and end the unceasing attacks on Christians. Please before you sleep tonight please pray for the christians murdered in Southern Kaduna Yesterday.

So what will you say about this verse of the Bible ( THE WORD OF GOD).

Or maybe you didn't know that word ILLUMINATE is in the scriptures.

Hebrews 10:32. "But call to remembrance the former days, in which after ye were ILLUMINATED, ye endured a great fight of afflictions". KJV

Being illuminated means being enlightened as translated it by the amplified version

"But remember the former days, in which, after you were ENLIGHTENED, you endured a great struggle with suffering"

Does that mean the writer of the Hebrews was a member of the Freemasons?

If your salvation is genuine, you don't need to bring another brother down to prove your repentance in Jesus Christ, that is if you have truly repented.

Should Christians Be Celebrating Halloween?

Looking At Halloween From The Bible's Perspective


Ancient Druids. Many Christians celebrate holidays, such as Halloween, without thinking about their origins or true meaning. It is impossible to separate Halloween from the Druids because they originated the "holiday." For several hundred years before Christ, the Celts inhabited what is now France, Germany, England, Scotland and Ireland. Celtic priests were called Druids. These people were eventually conquered by the Romans. Information about the Celts and Druids comes from Caesar and the Roman historians, Greek writings from about 200 B.C., and very early records found in Ireland. Greek and Roman writings about the Druids dwell heavily on their frequent and barbaric human sacrifices. The ancient Irish texts say little about human sacrifices, but detail the Druids' use of magic to raise storms, lay curses on places, kill by the use of spells, and create magical obstacles.


Druids worshipping the Devil at Stonehenge

Human Sacrifices. Davies, however, a 16th century writer who traced his family lineage directly back to Druid priests who fought against Caesar, clearly describes the human sacrifices of his ancestors and the secret sacrifices still performed regularly by the Druids of his time. By 47 A.D., Rome finally defeated the Druids in Britain and outlawed human sacrifices. The few remaining Druids went underground. Today a growing group of people claiming to be of direct Druid descent, still practice their religion, including human sacrifice. Those in England still perform ceremonies at Stonehenge.


Druids starting bonfires to give homage and worship to their pagan gods. This included the burning of animals and crops to appease thier deities.

November 1st was the Celtic new year. October 31st was celebrated by the Druids with many human sacrifices and a festival honoring their sun god and Samhain, the lord of the dead. They believed that the sinful souls of those who died during the year were in a place of torment, and would be released only if Samhain was pleased with their sacrifices.

Monks Fascinated By Druids. rish records tell of the fascination the Catholic monks had with the powerful Druids, and Druids soon became important members of their monasteries. Pope Gregory the Great decided to incorporate the Druids' holiday into the church. He made the proclamation, "They are no longer to sacrifice beasts to the devil, but they may kill them for food to the praise of God, and give thanks to the giver of all gifts for His bounty." Pope Gregory III moved the church festival of October 31st to November 1st and called it All Hallows or All Saints' Day. Pope Gregory IV decreed that the day was to be a universal church observance. The term Halloween comes from All Hallows Eve.

The founding fathers of America refused to permit the holiday to be observed because they knew it was a pagan holiday. Halloween was not widely celebrated in the U.S. until about 1900. In the 1840's there was a terrible potato famine in Ireland which sent thousands of Catholic Irish to America. They brought Halloween with them. The modern custom of going from door to door asking for food and candy goes back to the time of the Druids. They believed that sinful, lost souls were released upon the earth by Samhain for one night on October 31st while they awaited their judgment. They were thought to throng about the houses of the living and were greeted with banquet-laden tables. People greatly feared these spirits and thought that the spirits would harm and even kill them if the sacrifices they gave did not appease Samhain. They carved demonic faces into pumpkins or large turnips, placing a candle in them to keep the evil spirits away from their homes.

They carved demonic faces into pumpkins or large turnips, placing a candle in them to keep the evil spirits away from their homes.

The tradition of bobbing for apples and giving out nuts came from a Roman addition to the Druidic New Year's eve. The Romans worshiped Pomona who was the goddess of the harvest. They combined their harvest festival to Pomona with Halloween. Very little archeological evidence of the Druids has been found, but there is excellent agreement between the Roman and Irish documents. Both clearly state that the knowledge of the Druids was never committed to writing but passed from generation to generation by oral teaching. This was to protect their secrets. In his writings, Davies indicates that he came under much persecution by his family for putting in writing his information about Druids. The same is true today. Nothing is put into writing. The Druids continue on secretly with much the same traditions.

The widespread problem of harmful substances such as razor blades, drugs, poisons, needles, etc. being placed in the Halloween treats here in America is no accident. Testimonies of several ex-Satanists show that these children killed and injured by the "treats" are sacrifices to Satan (or Samhain). Satanists throughout the world continue to perform human sacrifices on Halloween. Is this something you want YOUR child to participate in?"

Well the hatred you have for them & us, leaves them & us no choice.

As we all know that you are scared of existing on ur own.

Good move, and good news.

I pray more should surrender their weapons.

Peace in the Niger Delta is necessary for national growth and development.

The best thing you can give the Niger Delta is "RESOURCE CONTROL"

Who cares if anyone believes that Jesus died or not?

Well whether you make heaven or not depends on it.

Jesus is not dead because He rose from the dead

Matthew 28: (KJV)
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that y[b]e seek Jesus, which was crucified.[/b]

6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

Illiterate, how does this confirm that Jesus was buried really in this tomb?

it has been kept for centuries as the place Jesus was buried, even before Islam came.
