I think Awolowo was the only rightly informed person of the nigeria's founding fathers from the three regions. I think he once remarked in his book Voice of Reason that when they went for meetings concerning the independence. He would pack books on nation building and be reading while others were sight - seeing, and other things. Awolowo has given yorubaland a philosophy that accommodate all and environment for all to thrive and hub for civilization. The agitation for Yorùbá region is because, Yorùbá is not growth is not concomitant with the civilized mind and exposure of the citizens. The nation is holding people down from self determination and expression. I pray this restruction of Nigeria will be successful so that the prophecies and vision of Awolowo would be fully realized. Awo the sage. Jeremiah the prophet. Obafemi the desired legacy. Yorùbá the hope of black race. |
Gotocourt:None must come down market forces should bring them down. That is when business can grow.Then food to be subsidized. |
What is the difference between Tinubu, and Obi? Both believe in the economic reforms introduced by Tinubu. Atiku is gaslighting us. Why can't we allow Tinubu to build on the foundation he has laid since none of these aspirants is bringing anything new? Tinubu till 2032 |
SeeWahala:Tinubu didn't believe then. He believes now. Believe is not a permanent thing. He said he believed in regional integration and discourse about it is ongoing in Abuja with the backing of the president himself. Tinubu again. For one thing: restructuring. |
Desperate Atiku Political lies |
BATified2023:You get it brother. It is only desperate Atiku that is gaslighting people to return fuel subsidy. Every right thinking Nigeria knows it won't work for a bad economy have now. Maybe it will work in the future. Only a mad person will not vote Tinubu to finish restructuring Nigeria. Any northern leaders will always draw us back anytime they take up power. Until we take our lives in our hands, the north will not allow us to move ahead. Theh only see almajiri and shari'a as their destination. |
Ọkùnrin kọ ẹyìn sí igbó elédùmarè, bàbá mí tọ obìnrin lọ Mission aborted. |
Ji ji Validated:You think Yorùbá will give their votes to Makinde that they know will not be able to win election. Tinubu will Tinubu can only win in Ogun, Ekiti, part of Ondo, Kwara and Kogi. That is what guarantees for the APC. Tinubu will win all Yorùbá states. Yorùbá people are reasonable more than you think. They see restructuring more than economic hardship. I for one believe that economic woes of Nigeria is because of the mismanagement of northern rulers. If Nigeria is not regionalized, the north will not allow Nigeria to grow. They see islamization more than humanity. Nigeria's economic problem is artificial and avoidable. The gains of Obasanjo and Jonathan regime were all lost in eight years of Buhari administration. Obasanjo was begging for debt forgiveness and was granted. Who will forgive another debt that emanated within few years? My fear is whenever we will have another ineptitude northerner as president. He would be using our money to send people to Hajj and do mass wedding. |
Kobojunkie:My point is this, how does an innocent soldier who was derailed to go to war in the interest of the nation is affected? The law says that a war can be executed not more than 180 days without the backing of the Congress. Does that now mean they innocent soldiers died for nothing? The law and humanity which comes first? |
MaxInDHouse:Okay. Are you and other Abrahamic faith worshipping the same Allah? |
SonOfWords:I know and understand. The young soldier now died for what? |
FSBoperator:You get my point. The young fellow of 33 that his family is demanding for benefits has no reason to disobey a superior in matter of engagement. It is unfortunate that he died. But Pentagon refusal to grant this necessary benefits to the family left behind is something else. To what did the soldier and the family owed such treatment? orangutan? No so you hate Trump reach? ![]() |
This is senseless, how can the military disobey the commander - in - chief because of the congress not declaring war? |
NotOfThisWorld:I want to learn things that don't work from your experience. |
NotOfThisWorld:Are you married? |
This is a foolish wife. She didn't have to disgrace her husband in the public. |
OBA117:I am proud to have a share of both great tribes. This is good rivalry: why the duo don't align in politics is still a mystery to me. |
This is a bad loss for him. He could not use the pri* k to satisfy the wife here. He wasn't a Muslim so he can enjoy 72 virgins in Al - jaanah. ![]() Double wahala for deady bodi and lower of deady bodi. |
MaxInDHouse:Hahahaha ![]() ![]() You have started again. Which Abraham religion: Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Samaritanism,Baháʼí Faith Mandaeism Gnostic traditions, Rastafarianism, Druze? Judaism does not believe in eternal hell anywhere. I listened to one Rabbi teaching about it. Even their doctrine about birth and death is different from others. I am not sure they believe in afterlife. Stay your line, inherit Otedola's Mansions. |
MaxInDHouse:We are saying the same thing. You are entitled to your beliefs and dogmas. But, if your belief is hazardous to me I should be wary of it. JW doesn't post any threats to me neither do I care about its dogma. But, that Islam says that it is a crime deserving of death for not worshipping Allah is a thing of concern. Why should I be in danger for worshipping or not worshipping at all? Good luck to you for being a witness. Good luck to me for being a Pentecostal. |
MaxInDHouse:Apart from Trinity and Jesus being Son of God, Islam believes every other thing Christianity believes. In fact Islam talks about Hell fire 🔥 more than Christianity. The hellfire of Islam is funny such that if you listen to music, take photograph, sleep certain way, hellfire is waiting . All Christians no matter what denominations or organizations will go to Islamic hell. Hell in Islam is for all non Muslims and all Muslims will pass through fire. |
MaxInDHouse:Thanks for responding this time. I started to question Islam when I lived in the north and one day, it was rumoured that Christians would be attacked. I was living in an Igbo man's house. The man relocated his family to his village and I shared my own three children into three. Some slept in places with people I don't know till date. Reason, if we were together, they could wipe out the whole family. So, some were somewhere to preserve, if possible, alive. So Sir, in as much as your organization is linked to Jesus, Islam says you are cursed by Allah whether you engage in politics or not. Whether you preach loudly or silently. Whether you practice democracy, monarchy, any kinds. I respect your conviction about Christianity. It's fine only that I don't see things the same way you see them. I was listening to Abdulazeez Ajagbemokenferi, later Yusuf Adepoju, Adegunwa. Now I stumbled on M. S Bàbá, Go Apologea, San Sharoum, Christian Prince. These argue for and Quran, hadiths, tasfir and the rest. I had a copy before and read some parts of it and some hadiths. I think Islam doesn't respect any denominations of Christianity. That is my finding anyway Thanks again for responding. |
Hmmmm. Islamists are attacking Hindus in India. The Hindu worshipers in return are pulling down their mosques, Chinese government is pulling down mosques, in the streets of London, protests are ongoing because of excesses of Muslims and their demand for shari'a. Ibrahim Traore has problems with Muslims because they defy the laws of the land and blocking major roads while praying and demand for shari'a. Are these Christians? From the time of Mohammad, hostility was preached against christians and Jews. In fact, in the solat you recited as a Muslim, Christians and Jews are cursed seventeen times a day. Mohammed on his death bed still cursed Christians and Jews. Islam is a religio - political movement aimed at taking over the world with no respect for any religion, government, or race. The aim of Islam is have a global government under a caliph. Islam is a movement to erase history, culture, religion and replace with Islam. Even the Ruling House on Saudi Arabia today usurped the throne in the name of Islam and subdued the original aboriginals . The same was replicated in the northern Nigeria. The same evil started in yorubaland centuries ago not because of any Adeboye, Kumuyi, Obadare or Babalola. A sheikh in Ilorin was teaching that Oyo is a village of Ilorin. So as an JW enthusiast, I. appreciate your zeal for your organization. Bandits, jihadists dó not have respect for you or your organization. They want to take over your headquarters before you re -inherit it in paradise. Islam is a political movement!!! |
There is a misunderstanding here. The fruit of the is the fruit that the Holy Spirit produces in our spirits - individual's spirit. The Holy Spirit is not the One manifesting the fruit but we as a result of association with the Holy Spirit. This means a pipe bearing oil can only bring out oil while the one bearing water can only bring out water. There is such a called personal spirit, Rom.1.9 - For God is my witness, whom[b] I serve with my spirit[/b] in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; : 1Cor.5.4 - In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, [/b]with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, [b]1Cor.14.14 - For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 1Cor.16.18 - For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such. 2Cor.2.13 - I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. The spirit of man is the one that was regenerated. ANOTHER WORD USED INTERCHANGEABLY FOR THIS IS THE HEART This is the reason to love if we allow the Holy Spirit to take over our spirits will be easy. Rom.5.5 - And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. The same goes for other fruit of the Spirit rather of our regenerated spirits. |
Even in Islamic Al - jaanah, there will be no peace. |
DeepSight:You have asked a very good question. Jesus was not a racist here. I want you to read carefully and do a little research more. The story of salvation is very deep that Bible calls it a mystery. After the Fall of man, God tried to reach out to man. Later God made a small way out by the reason of COVENANT. The covenant is a memorandum of ownership and commitment just like husband and wife. The Covenant with Abraham is the major one we are discussing here among others. So God made covenant with Abraham. The covenant was to be a generational one. The main agreement there was, ' to be a God to you and your generation. Genesis 17:75 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. You know that if you are dating a girl, you cannot claim she is cheating on you until there is a proposal and acceptance. Better still if the girl eventually becomes your wife, there is this sense of belonging. So the covenant flows down to David to Jesus. That is the Old Covenant which later became Old Testament.( find out the difference between covenant and testament). You will have noticed that God called Himself or compared Himself a husband of Israel. The covenant is what Jesus came to defend and abolish to make a new one. I want you to understand that Jesus operated purely under the Old Covenant. That was why he was called the Messenger of the Covenant. Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts. So, when Jesus came, the Bible says, He came to His own..... John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not and in another place,' I am sent to the lost house of Israel One of the characteristics of a covenant is preferential treatment. It is normal. That was the reason for the wars also in the Old Covenant. That was why children of Esau was destroyed. Only because God chose Jacob and Esau was fighting him. (Read Obadiah). So, when the woman came asking for help, she was not a covenant partner and the Messenger of the Covenant did not have any message for her but only Israelites. You would remember how Jesus healed a woman bent double and said ought not this daughter of Abraham be loosed from her infirmity. The old Covenant was a family covenant. Things are different now. The new Covenant is a universal one established by Jesus for all. Now in Jesus there is no Jews or gentiles. We are all one in Him and are equally entitled to the benefits of the salvation. Hebrews 2:3 ]How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; Now if you accept the salvation by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord ( the One that purchased you by His blood), you are in.. Acts.20.28 - Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. Then you become a member in particular, known by God, and right to ask anything in Jesus Name, and you will get it. 1 Corinthians 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. Remain blessed. |
AntiChristian:That exactly is the case. That is why I would encourage people not to answer you because of your abysmal lack of the knowledge of God and His mysteries contained in His word. Mark.4.11 - And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: Again, respond to the first question. Why is Mohammed's message different from others? Over 250m people have been killed propagating Islam. Yet the world world is not converted. |
Antichristian2:Do you know why I always have to go hard on you? I have seen that you and many Muslim apologists are ignorant of the Bible and its composition. The Bible is a record of events written by many people with different capabilities of the use of grammar and expertise in description. Aside the direct Ten Commandments written with the finger of God Himself, other prophecies were inspired. There are this side of history and rewriting by scribes and change of grammar with time and even language with different civilizations. Then reportage of individuals on one issue, even, if they were eyewitnesses can never be the same. So, when you want to rubbish the Bible, you show abysmal knowledge of the scriptures and are not handling Christian Bible with honesty. For you to understand the Bible, you will have to read without the spectacle of Islam. Mohammed himself didn't understand the Bible. He was confused and that is why his message is not a continuation of the rest of the prophets. Maximumside will be in the best position to teach you being an ex - Muslim who may have held the same views you cherish now. I see you as an ignorant person trying to form knowledgeable in the Christian faith. How many Christians have agreed with your views on this platform? None, because your show more of ignorance than knowledge. |
MrPresident1:What are you really saying here? |
Which kind topic is this one again? |
The land of Israel is not all lost though a portion remains today. The idea that Israel is lost the right to become God's people is not consistent with the scriptures. A balanced view will be seen in the prophets and the writing of Paul. there is still a remnant. And that remnant are still children of God. Isaiah 6, Romans 11. ..... the gift and calling of God is without repentance. Moreso, Jesus promised the return of exiles as also prophesied by Isaiah and that at that time, strangers will live with them in the prophecies of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and some minor prophets. |

that's the absolute worst thing someone claiming to be a leader or statesman can say
