Oga, shut up your mouth. The fact that you are a descendant of paupers doesn't mean others share your unfortunate history.

Oxford University Press and Harper Collins are some of the largest publishers in the world and they don't have a single jet. How many books has he sold and how many tapes has he sold that he can afford to buy 5 jets? Does Oyedepo sell more than Sony Music? How many jets does Sony Music have?

Since he's made so much personal money from selling books and tapes, can he provide us with his tax returns? If he didn't declare those in his tax documents, are you aware he is a criminal?

I don't have a problem with your paying tithes to whoever or defending Mr Oyedepo but don't insult our sensibilities and tell unintelligent lies like an epileptic drunkard just waking up from sleep.
Is it the tithe, the Jet, or the university or his person that is your problem?

Your government officials embezzle so much that cannot run any universities successfully. I am a product of two Nigerian universities. They all the same, no light, reagents, water, etc. If this man and others like him wound set the standard, let them be.. Biko.

A jet is nothing compare to the positive impacts on people he is leading and society.

d right decision
While Trump, the "p*ssy grabber" is just playing politics by energizing his political base of Evangelicals in d USA, Netanyahu is a dangerous & dishonest right wing zionist extremist who does not believe in peace. He had to resign his appointment as finance Minister in protest to Sharon's giving back of Gaza to d Palestinians in furtherance of d 2-state solution & peace.

As an enlightened Christian, i realize dat d Israel to whom God gave d land is not the same nation dat we call Israel today. God gave the land to a people united to him by a solemn covenant ( Ex. 19-20 ). The present state of Israel is a state that does not recognize d God of d Bible as its supreme Lord. These unbelieving Jews hav been broken off frm dis covenant for in their unbelief they regard Christianity as idolatry & Jesus as a false prophet who came to turn humanity away frm God.
It seems you don't understand what covenant, a pact partner's defaulting does not cancel its force

Christianity EtcRe: Is Jesus Christ Created? by MightySparrow:
Peacefullove:
I do, including that Revelation 3 vs 14 . am interested in your explaining it Bro
Christ existed with God the Father in the beginning. John 1:1. How and when this beginning was, not known. He was with God and also was God. How not known or mentioned in the scriptures. However, Issish 43: 10 says,

'Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.'

What constitues the formation we don't know.
Yet John 1:1 says The Word and God are one.
The first creation by the actions of Adam and Eve were condemned. Death came. All came to die with Adam.

The word (the raw material for creation) now came into a living dust unlike a statue in Genesis. John 1: 14. Claims the word became incarnated in a Virgin.
Now as the last Adam, became the beginning of a new order of creation of God. Hence the doctrine of regeneration not mentioned in O.T.

But a new order, born anew, meaning, The Word, part of Godhead recreated again unlike the beginning, starting with the dying mortals.
So Jesus became the first begotten as He died give eternal life to the spiritually dead people and world. He become the beginning, initiator, source, ruler as rendered by some versions of the Bible.
This is the mystery of Christ. Except you want to erase John 1:1. Or, God and 'god' of JW are in mutual agreement negating the onenes of God or John made mistake or the scriptures are faulty.

Turks are not Arabs as you lied, Turks have overturned his hijab ban in public buildings and revising his anti-Islamic laws.
Fine, they as Nigeria were influenced by Islam today Arabic is still part of official language in Turkey.


Besides, they could progress because of moderation in archaic laws of Islam.

Don' t quick in passing judgment that I am a Christian, I am by His Grace.
The progress we see today in Europe came when certain laws and beliefs are subjected to reason. They has not changed God rather improve Hyman's quality of life.
The reform if Atatürk turned things around for Turkey. The bigotry of middle East and Islamic / religious Africa is a problem.

So many stupid practices in Nigerian Christianity that weigh us down.

Europe is barely tolerating Turkey as a part if them for possible excesses.

Sorry to say this, where are the glories of Egypt, Babylon, Persia after the advent of Islam?
These nation today are making a statement of global recognition by terrorism because the cannot compete in science and industry by the laws that hoid them down.

Black race has never been up why should we allow religious laws to hold us down?

You are not informed, Turkey is not even an Arab country. Turkey has reversed some of the idiotic policies of atarturk who was an imperialist mole. Now hijab is allowed in Turkey and many an anti Islamic policies of his. In the US under age marriage is being practiced but your problems becomes Yemen. Secularity is not freedom from religion but freedom of religion.

Law is for orders, to curb, direct, and to manage mannerisms and excesses. Every profession has its laws. In soldering, a soldier has right to wear babariga but not when on duty. A nurse in Nigeria may not wear hijab it is not part of the habit. The little girl in question is just mischievous.

I don't think Islam supports disorderliness. Only in Nigeria you would see Muslims taking useless doctrines too far. An average Arab, owners of Islam do not gather harem of women. In Nigeria a gateman barely living has four wives doling out urchins in the name of Islam.. A middle class man in Dubai, Turkey, Yemen, Saudi Arabia has one wife living decently while ignorant Nigerian Muslim lives in abysmal poverty and rejoicing in archaic dogma of 'islam'
Yerima the other time was going to marry a minor also to introduce Shari'a law. He stole billions and cut off the hands of someone who stole a goat. Shari'a has not cut of his nails

All progressive Arab nations today practise Islam with sense. Kemal mustapha Atatürk introduced a moderate Islam after he saw the evil of bigotry. Ever since Atatürk, Turkey likes association with Europe. The struggling nations are looking backwards to the period of Muhammad (SAW) with plain hypocrisy. Leading and inciting their ignorant followers to unreasonableness.

They know Islam more than Arabs!

Christianity EtcRe: Is Jesus Christ Created? by MightySparrow:
I have read so much about this topic and I think most folks miss it by trying to interpreted the Bible without considering the main theme: Salvation. When we talk about salvation, we talk about divine help. When we talk about divine help we talk about covenant. When talk about covenant we talk about divine exchange. When we talk about divine exchange, we must talk about mystery of Jesus. When we talk about mystery, only heaven has the real meaning and absolute knowledge of the personality of Jesus.

However, in John 1:1 it is said God and word co - existed. Elsewhere, God said I am the only God and I do not recognise another. Yet the Word is God.
(Jehovah witnesses would wish this statement removed but cannot remove it, except to say that John made a mistake.) Their Bible renders the second God a 'god' Why would God recognize this 'a god'

All scriptures that talk about Jesus did not talk about his creation except inferred. e.g. Rev.3:14. Col. 1:15 which are not consistent with Is a. 9:6, 7; Micah 5:2; John1:1, 2; Heb. 1:8:Rev1:8.

The Mystery
The way I understand Christ. He was in God as The Word. He became incarnated for the purpose of redemption without which there should never be a reason for incarnation.
He made His disciples confessed that He actually 'came out of God' before He went to the cross.

27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I [/b]came out from God[b]. 28 [/b]I came forth from the Father, [/b]and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. 29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. 30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God. 31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? John 17 : 27 - 31.Salvation is a rebirth, a new order in a past, yet existing world. He is the only begotten because He came out of God..

He became the first born (begotten) of all creation when He arose from the dead. a believer who is baptized is showing this Gal. 2:20.

A status He attained only after the resurrection.

30 But God raised him from the dead: 31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. 32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, 33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. Acts 13: 30 - 33.

Jesus is a mystery should be seen as such.

Catholic gave birth to Islam. No. copied the Bible and adulterated further being angered by the practices of Catholics and took his revelations to an ambiguous extent.
Tried to wipe out Christianity and Israel. A thing secretly cherished by Muslims but trying hard to achieve but cover their pursuit by the doctrine of All - taqquiya (accepted lies).

Catholicism and Islam are a lie altogether.
The recent declaration of the Trump of God

Christianity EtcWhy Jesus is Called The Son Of God by MightySparrow(op): 4:02am On Dec 20, 2017
God does not have a literal wife with whom he fathered children. But he is the Creator of all life. (Revelation 4:11) Therefore, the first human that God created, Adam, is called a “son of God.” (Luke 3:38) Similarly, the Bible teaches that Jesus was created by God. So Jesus is also called a “Son of God.”—John 1:49.

God created Jesus before he created Adam. Regarding Jesus, the apostle Paul wrote: “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.” (Colossians 1:15) Jesus’ life began long before he was born in a stable in Bethlehem. In fact, the Bible says that his “origin is from early times, from the days of time indefinite.” (Micah 5:2) As God’s firstborn Son, Jesus was a spirit creature in heaven before he was born as a human on earth. Jesus himself said: “I have come down from heaven.”—John 6:38; 8:23.
