This term you like using called community delusion dey make me laugh.

Me too.
I am laughing in JWs' paradise's language.

Ayomide11111:
Please, house, I'm falling in love💕 with a Benue girl. Kindly advise: What are Benue girls like?

I know that everyone can't be the same. But, I just want to know the character traits usually associated with Benue girls. Thanks.

Benue girls are as good as any girl anywhere. I lived in the Middle Belt, I found Benue girls very good as against the nonsense people write against them.

If your girl loves you please don't betray her love.

Good luck.

Yes nah. The Pr*KS are looking forward to the future.

MaxInDHouse:
Females join us during house to house ministry but in the congregation (church) they must not speak as teachers in the presence of qualified men that's why Jesus never chose a single female to be an Apostle! 1Timothy 2:12

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Don't you feel the verse qouted is solely Paul's opinion?

Later Paul wrote:

Galatians 3:28, "there is neither male nor female, for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."
In what context is female equal and the same time not equal?

Holy Spirit came upon all the people in the Upper Room baptized all of them without discrimination.

I understand that your organization doesnot have female leaders, that is your community truth Deeper Life, RCCG, Apostolic Faith... Anglican have, Catholic no. These are mere community truths.

Church and organization of evolved over years and people are commissioned to take positions as needed. Before Christ came, nowhere was it said that Jews should build synagogues. Since man by nature are travellers, they carried their culture and religion everywhere they went

Jesus did not make anybody Apostles, before His ascension all were disciples. The five fold ministry as handed down by the Apostles are not recognized in your organization (community truth), some ministries do.

Back to women and preaching, there are many ministries with women with great feats. Priscilla, Maria Woodworth - Etter Kathryn Kulman, Amiee Simpson, Dorothy Trudell, Florence Crawford..,. Some of these founded churches that has lasted over a century. In fact, Apostolic Faith and your organization were founded same year in the same country.

Can we now say that God does not approve their works and all their members are lost ( anyway, JWs believe that all the saints before, now, and in the future are doomed). Meaning, whosoever,is not approved by GB is not approved by God ( community delusion).


Since God promised and did pour His Spirit on all men ( men and women in fulfillment). For what purpose?

MaxInDHouse:
And look! a Phoe·niʹcian woman from that region came and cried out: “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David. My daughter is cruelly demon possessed.” But he did not say a word in answer to her. So his disciples came and began to urge him: “Send her away, because she keeps crying out after us.”  He answered: “I was not sent to anyone except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” But the woman came and did obeisance to him, saying: “Lord, help me!” In answer he said: “It is not right to take the bread of the children and throw it to the little dogs.” She said: “Yes, Lord, but really the little dogs do eat of the crumbs falling from the table of their masters.” Then Jesus replied to her: “O woman, great is your faith; let it happen to you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed from that hour on. Matthew 15:22-28

With the highlighted Jesus made it clear that the supernatural gifts to perform signs in his name are reserved for only Israelites!

I Iike this scripture.
Why did Jesus refuse the woman in the first instance? Jesus came to fulfill His Covenant with Israel. Part of which is healing Isaiah 53:5. He also came to put an end to the same Covenant to establish a new or a better one.
While under the Old Covenant, He healed only two people who were not children of Israel. Even, in the Old Covenant, any slaves bought with their money shared the same commonwealth.

Jesus healed the phonecian women and the servant of the Italian military officer.
The woman appealed for mercy, though not covenanted. The other, elders of Israel plead for him.



In the New Covenant, The spiritual gifts, spiritual blessings are for all



. Jesus came to fulfill Gen. 12: 1 -3.
In Jesus no Greek, no barbarian, ,,.

Eph.1.3 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:


Timothy's father was a Greek, he was imparted by paul. Paul encouraged him to stir up the gift, not office he received. Be must have imparted many others in Rome .Rom.1.11

2Tim.1.6 - Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.




Note
Rom.1.11 - For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;



So, your argument is like you don't believe in the ministry of Paul. Did he make mistake?

I watched a TV presentation where an igbo local historian claimed the same thing.

I don't really know which of these.
All of at the south of Niger share common origin.

In fact, Ifá Oracle and Afa in Igbo, Nupe, Igalà, Ebira.... is a common deity worshipped by all.

There are four episodes in the series. Try and watch all. Bloggers, especially enthusiasts with no knowledge of history are causing damage to our existence.

MaxInDHouse:
This is not about SUPERNATURAL GIFTS but different offices in Christianity.
The office of Apostles and Shepherds are not given to females.

Others are given to your. females?

MaxInDHouse:
Let's get this clear.

Is it that you were blind or lame or deaf then you prayed to your God and got healed or you witnessed a program where such happened in the hand of a pastor or prophet?

Because if it's about praying for personal needs i have told you that God opens His hands to provide for all creatures {Matthew 5:45; Psalms 104:14-15; Act 14:17} but when talking about supernatural gifts Jesus said that is reserved for only the Israelites! Matthew 15:24

So i want you to be specific since you said:

This his the argument between me and maximumSide.

He denied that all spiritual manifestations are not for anyone outside the Jewish race

MaxInDHouse:
And he gave some (gifts) as APOSTLES, some as PROPHETS, some as EVANGELIZERS, some as SHEPHERDS and TEACHERS. Ephesians 4:11

*APOSTLES
*PROPHETS
*EVANGELIZES
*SHEPHERDS
*TEACHERS

Going by what we found in the scriptures the APOSTOLIC and SHEPHERDING gifts belongs to males only while women can prophesy, teach and evangelize outside the congregation.

Of course Christian women among us are gifted to prophesy, teach and evangelize but when it comes to the office of Apostleship or shepherding it has to do with the congregation so they must remain silent! 1Timothy 2:12

See lie promax. You once answered me here on Nairaland that no other peoples other than Israelites were given any or operated any spiritual gifts. These members must be Jewish members, shey?

This must be a new light.

of JWs is faithful. He has not changed. God answers people in their area of needs as regulated by GB. grin

Let's get this clear.

So i want you to be specific since you said:

Not any pastor or prophet or any special crusade or programme.

Safyqueen:
You are media hypnotized. They told you Islam is the problem whereas they are. Time shall tell. Some African countries are waking up already and they are chasing the real terrorists away.

If the Nigeria separates today, you will be shocked that the north will grow faster than the South in all ramifications.

The example is real now. Who ever thought that Buhari with 'NEPA bill certificate' would be better president than a Chicago accountant graduate from the tribe that believes academic is theirs alone.

Crude oil abounds the north and other mineral deposit that causes this menaces. After separation, this problem will evaporate and they will leave you with your GMO maize, IMF, world bank policies, your USA, UK, France, LGBT and so on.

The north ruled 38 years of the about 60 years of self rule under both military and civilian regimes, all they can offer is abject poverty. The political leaders embezzlement all the money, the elites keep their children and wards in best Western education schools deceiving the talakawas that the same education suitable for their own children and wards are haram.

The people you failed to train yesterday are the herdsmen, bandits, Boko Haram of today. Who knows how many more groups will evolve? The craze to exterminate the Christians is still there. You may have all the resources, alongside are the factors that will not make it work. In fact, with no one to protect the Christians, there will be endless wars and unrest.

I lived in the north, I don't hate you as a people but the philosophy of your leadership. It is supported by Islamic tenets.


Your leaders are greedy and selfish, possibly you are thinking of taking after them. In any government, it is always about the north. Are your elders not crying foul now on Tinubu young government? If it were to be about some thirty years ago, you would have been planning a coup or a way of eliminating the president.

If you are going to be honest, you will know I am telling you and other northerners the truth.
The same greed made you betrayed and killed MKO, you wanted to play same game with Tinubu. Abacha did same with the southern military officers in his phantom coup.

IBB killed the promising Majors. The north has systematically put in place a system that igbos will never rule Nigeria. Everything is about the north and Islam.

I pray Nigeria breaks up in no distant future. Let's see your development into poverty.

Expanse2020:
Said by someone who never leave his state soil...

Well, you might be right. In Nigeria, I have visited 22 states. Beyond Nigeria, none.

The world is becoming a global village. You can know virtually anything about anywhere now from your phone.

Besides, name one thing, academic, politics, economic (maybe slave trade), scientific, sports, games that are of international appreciation. Any.


Is black race ready to take a lead in anything?
I doubt it.

SS for a person with exposure, please educate me.

SmartPolician:
You people take advantage of the slightest opportunity to insult these Northerners. The problem is not theirs; it is that your incompetent leaders' fault.

In serious countries like the US, they identify people's strengths and work on them. If we were serious in this country, instead of using that useless quota system to force undeserving people to go to school, you identify people's strength.

Education isn't for everyone. In the north, their strength is agriculture and animal husbandry. Invest massively in that area and engage tens of thousands of northerners in agroallied businesses. There are countries that make billions of dollars from agriculture every year.

Lie. Herders are giving us meat on the one hand and bullets on the other. China can give us food, Israel can give us food without death.

Infact, you show much of ignorance. The agriculture they have not improved on at this age and knowing!

One fellow taking kwashiorkor cattles all over Nigeria, destroying farms and killing people. They have refused the scientific way of doing things depending on their jazz.

Safyqueen:
It is because the north is not pro-west.
UK, France, USA are not their Messiah. They don't see and value them the way the South sees them because of religion and culture compatibility issue.

Those that do claim this academic sophistication over others like you are now in power messing up everything today because they believe in their instruments of neo-colonialism via IMF, world bank and others.

These western Neo-colonialist countries are the one behind this illegal mineral deposit exploration and exploitation that precipitate what you hold against the north today as banditry, terrorism and the rest.

Therefore receive sense and cure yourself of any iota of Islamaphobic tendencies before you enter market.

Separate the South from the North today. In the next twenty years, some parts of the south would be like London or Manhattan, the north would be like Sodom and Gomorrah. War, unrest, Islamic attempts to cannibalize other tribes would have reduced the section to Old Stone age.

What has your Islam contributed to the world? Today, billions of dollars are spent on security to save humanity from Islam.

Remman:
As in, they literally see him disappear or he picked the call and went outside and never came back?

Did UFOs pick him up or what?

I think the report is badly worded. It.may have been that after the call, he went out to meet the caller and from there disappeared.

None from Boko Haram side of bá* ditry empire of born -to - ruin?

Remove their South and their people from my south, it would be heaven on earth.

If Kanu successfully komot for that prison it would mean the man indeed has a higher purpose.

I'm Igbo an I believe if he doesn't have higher destiny then he would have been dead and killed long ago.

They could have easily killed him in Kenya or Gave him the Abiola treatment but something greater prevented all that from happening.


Make we the watch sha

If truly you are igbo, you are one with sense.
Nnamdi Kanu was too loud with his mouth against Buhari. He forgot that this Buhari was the one who was going to bring his own kinsman (Umaru Diko, I think), in a container from the UK as a military leader. If it were to a military regime, he would be dead by now.

Nothing would have happened thereafter.

MKO died nothing happened ditto

All gone.

To get what you want, re strategize not with guns. There is no time a section in Nigeria will win against federal might.
The same way, no single section in Nigeria will ever put a president in Aso Rock.

The head needed reset. It could have been done in a better way.

End EFCC bullying now.

SharonLoveth:
The way members of hall goers talk about Jesus doesn't make sense that is why you give room for unbelievers like you from other religious to mock the followers of Christ and Christ himself

Believers and unbelievers need Jesus, that is the simplest thing the guy said in which you are mocking and do you think you get sense at all?

For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel

You get it Sir. One Hall goer will be using manipulations of scriptures to confuse the obvious.

When will the bandits enter Buhari s house?

I'm still waiting to see you provide actual evidence for the God you believe in.
