They spoiled Nigerian's judicial system.


When Awolowo was imprisoned against justice, the judge found no evidence against him but was compelled to give him jail term.

In the judge's own words, '......my hands are tied...'


The north miscalculated so many things. Such was the case of Boko Haram at its inception. It was targeted against kafirs, but now a monster they don't wish.

Christianity EtcRe: Ministry To Jws, Part 4 - Manner Of Christ's Return by MightySparrow: 11:33pm On Nov 23, 2023
Sand2022:
Jw witnesses have a different understanding of Acts 1:11. Let's read

Acts 1:11
11and said: “Men of Galʹi·lee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus who was taken up from you into the sky will come in the same manner as you have seen him going into the sky.”

There Publications explains the verse thus:

15 The angels said that Jesus would return, not in the same form, but “in the same manner.” In what manner did he depart? He was out of sight when the angels spoke. Only those few men, the apostles, perceived that Jesus had left the vicinity of the earth and was on his way to his Father in heaven. The manner of Christ’s return was to be similar. So it has been. Today, only those with spiritual discernment realize that Jesus is present in kingly power. (Luke 17:20) We need to discern the evidence of his presence and convey it to others so that they too may see the urgency of our times."

From the publication, the point is:

Only the JW anointed discerned that Jesus had supposedly returned in 1914. As they believe, that discernment by the anointed of JWs was how they saw Jesus returned as the angels spoke in acts 1:11.

Why did they believe so?
Because the angels made their statement after Jesus had gone off view, and that it was only the apostles who saw him leave.

However, does that view make sense? No. Let's first agree that the word manner doesn't emphasize the form with which Jesus left. That was not the point in the angels words. It is manner, but the way the JWs apply the meaning of manner is totally against the context. Let's see:

The angels says "This Jesus who was taken up from you into the sky will come in the same manner as you have seen him going into the sky.”

The phrase didn't stop at "in the same manner", but it continued "as you have seen him going into the sky". So the manner has to do with the process with which he ascended into the sky. The process/manner/method will follow a reverse order, in that he will descend to the earth. Yes, the point of tropos (Greek word for manner) is not about the form of body he will return, but the process or way with which he ascended.

However, the JWs says that the manner or process has to do with the fact that only the apostles were present and that they alone saw him. So his return will not be discerned by others except the JW anointed.

After the word manner, the angels continued "... as you have seen him going into the sky". This emphasize a reverse order in his return. None of Jehovah witnesses saw him return. So there was no reverse order in JW return of Christ as the angels say. The JW rather says that the anointed saw the sign that he is a king in heaven as world war occured in 1914. But that is just a sign of a supposed return. That is not what the angels said. The angels say we will see him, not the sign. There are two opposite words used by the angels... Going and coming. Jesus went to heaven, what remains is for him to return (coming). As he is seen going, he will also be seen coming back. That is the correct application of the word tropos (manner).

The JW interpretation replaced seeing with discerning or realization so as to shift the meaning of the angels words to something that will agree with their 1914 theology.

The fact is that the apostles did not just realize that he was going to heaven nor did they discern he was going, rather they saw him[i][/i] going. They did not discern any sign that he was going to heaven, rather they saw that he was going to heaven. In the same way, we will see him returning. That is the proper application of that word "manner".
If you have any of them near you, be praying that God in His mercy should deliver them from delusion.

MaxInDHouse:
This is the proof that someone has or does not have faith:

Faith is the assured expectation of what is hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities that are not seen. Hebrews 11:1

What did God promise that you're expecting to see as evidence of God's Hold Spirit in action even though you can see it?

God promised that in the last days individuals from different nations will form one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers after studying the Bible {Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3} and they will relate as if they're speaking the same language! Zephaniah 3:9

Nobody needs to tell you that this is what all FAITHFUL PEOPLE should be out there looking for to be sure that those involved in such thing are under the control of God's Hold Spirit since they're also imperfect humans like all others.

So whatever makes you see it but keep speaking against it means you're FAITHLESS, that's exactly what Pharisees, Sadducees, Scribes and other Jewish Rabbis in the first century failed to see but common Jews like Peter, Matthew, Philip, Thomas, John and the rest saw with their minds eyes! Matthew 13:16 smiley

MaxInDHouse:
You can't blasphem humans and sin against God that's impossible, for instance if you meet Jesus talking in the first century surely his talks will irritate you most especially if you're not the type that takes nonsense so you will wonder what he meant by saying people should turn their left cheek when slapped on the right or people should love and pray for those hunting their lives but what if you noticed that this young man is FULFILLING the prophecy that's written in God's word which no one has ever done in history?
If you still lift up your voice against what he's doing despite seeing that with your own eyes then you're no longer attacking Jesus rather you're attacking the active force of God that's evidence of God's backing in what Jesus is doing.

That's the UNFORGIVABLE SIN!

I'm not just responding to you because i know you have no faith neither are you interested in the truth but for the sake of interested followers who may like to know the meaning of sin against God's Holy Spirit!

Master deceivers that has successfully erased the making, buying, selling and usage of weapons in the hearts of millions throughout the earth! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

Please what exactly is God's will for His people as they're advancing towards everlasting life in Paradise?

Because if only the GB succeeded in achieving what God promised then you are commiting the UNFORGIVABLE SIN as you can't present a better performing group than the GB and we all know that nobody or group of people can achieve what God promised if God's Holy Spirit is not WORKING with them.
So if you're calling the Spirit that achieved what God promised a deceiving spirit you have judged yourself:

“For this reason I say to you, every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven. For example, whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the holy spirit, it will not be forgiven him, no, not in this system of things nor in that to come" Matthew 12:31-32

The countdown starts from now!

Make sure you find any group of people that's fulfilling what God promised in the Bible book of Isaiah 2:2-4 and Micah 4:1-3

Remember that without the Spirit of God it's impossible for imperfect humans to do this {Matthew 19:21} if you can't it's not too late to go on your knees and beg God to forgive you but if you stubbornly refused to beg God for speaking against the WORKS of His Holy Spirit then your own blood will be upon your head.

Nigerians have brought their traditions into Christianity. The beliefs of witches, and evil powers. These are more real to an average Nigerian christian than God Himself. Most of the prayers in some congregations are curses. Most of their pastors also lack knowledge.

I have been saying it, and will still continue: any christian practice that is not universal is a lie.

God is the same in Ghana, Germany, USA, Finland, Afghanistan as well as on Nigeria.

The same the devil.
Ofemmanu1 mentioned above about Edo state. I live in Benin now. I am amazed by the warpness of the believe system. Everything is devil, witches, and enemies.
People leave church in the morning to serve their idols in the evening. Fear will not allow them to see and seek God. Most prayers end with fire!
I am yet to see where that formula comes from in the scriptures.
Whenever, a person leads a prayer that will instill fear, you see people shaking heads like lizards.

Does God answer prayers without 'fire' elsewhere? I know He does.
The real issue is that people don't read their Bibles and depend on ignorant pastors to control them with fear.

I have lived in almost all geo - political zones in Nigeria. I found out one thing: each brags about the potency of their charms and the wickedness of their people. The devil is the same everywhere. He does not have favourites.

Anyway, the power of God is greater.

Christianity EtcRe: What's The Difference Between Grace And Mercy? by MightySparrow: 7:15am On Nov 23, 2023
beetown:
i was in first service this morning and my pastor preached from Romans 3:20-24 emphasizing so much on the Grace of God, saying it was the greatest gift God has given to man even greater than His mercies.

So Nairalanders, is there any difference between God's grace and His tender mercies?
Grace is an all encompassing thing. It brings all the God's disposition to man.

God's nature is holy.
Holiness means the knowledge, wisdom, the justice, purity,

When man fell, God had to reach to man. Man could no longer reach God in his deplorable state.

Grace on one hand means divine positioning and on the other hand, divine enablement.

So grace is larger has these: ,

Mercy is overlooking flaws; empathy, putting one into your shoes ( reason Jesus came to identify with us, calling us brothers); compassion,; willingness to help,; goodness , showing us the bright side of judgment, pardon; favour, pleasant disposition; compassion, seeing our helplessness.

Because God cannot deny His qualities, especially, justice, he designed grace to help.
The most seemingly potent part of grace is mercy. But mercy is a part of grace not the other way round.


Moses asked for grace, God responded with all of these and defined them.
Exodus 33: 15 - end.
Study this passage.

Grace be multiplied unto you.
Amen.
