lexy2014:Not necessarily the name change. Any one can change their name and nothing changes. But this seems to be rightly done at the rightful time. My opinion. |
sojisenai:Honestly he is on fire. |
Acekidc4:It not only sounds good. It also shows we are going to be in the league of top leagues by God's grace. Nigerian players are practically making other leagues successful, let's bring this charity back home as government and private sponsors invest in the success of this league. |
Pepperoniq:She needs to come to terms with that and seek solution. Where doctors have concluded on her case is where God himself wants to intervene. I pray she finds Grace and Mercy to be led to a faithful church. |
MaxInDHouse:I think we have tunneled down this rabbit hole a little longer than required. Whatever knowledge needed to be shared has been exhausted. Thanks for your time. |
MaxInDHouse:The Scriptures revealed God to us as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. |
boltwings:I know what it means to me. My question is what does it mean to you? |
MaxInDHouse:As long as He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, yes sir. |
MaxInDHouse:Same God but different Revelations due to variances in the Holy book. Just like Judaiam and Islam. |
AmandaPrecious:Nothing can truly make sense to you until you believe in God and he opens your understanding. You're simoly secular and sensual and carnal. You're intelligent (earthly wisdom) but not Wise (divine wisdom). This thread is about ubfair judgment of mothers who give birth through CS against natural birth. And what was my contribution? 1. The Birth pang of natural birth is symbolic. (I could try to explain the symbolism but it's spiritual). It's painful and the Near Death Experience instills a sense of responsibility in a Woman. It's difficult for such a person not to care for such child. 2. CS is also a near death experience especially in Nigeria. This means the experience also instills the same sense of responsibility. However where CS (and even natural birth) is not painful and no fear of death due to good technology and doctors as is obtainable in some quarters abroad, the absence of the fear and relative pain might not instill the sense of responsibility in such a mother. Hence my emphasis is on the threshold of pain or fear attached to the experience. I took the time to express myself clearly to you because it seems you perceive I made a generic assertion that all CS is painless and not a near death experience. Which is why you have practically been insulting and raining invectives on me, yet I have simply respected you all along. If after all this you still have a grouse to pick with me, I'm afraid you're officially on your own. Good bye. |
MaxInDHouse:You've spoken well. Just as RCCG submits and agrees to the leadership of Pastor Adeboye. Christ Embassy (Love world) to Pastor Chris. MFM to Pastor DK Olukoya etc. So the difference here is that while you make use of a different bi le you all submit to, they all make use of the same Holy Bible and according to the revelation they received. So I believe everyone is fulfilling their calling according to God's will. Some may have walked in error, some may walk in Truth but as long as the gospel is being propagated, the Holy Spirit knows how he will bring everyone that is of Him to Maturity and Unity of Fath. Eph.4.13 - till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; |
MaxInDHouse:What happened at the Tower of Babel? Man can also gather together in one mind to work against God's will. Which is why God Himself caused the discord among humanity y confusing our language Gen11. Because there is the tendency for man's will to go against His will. |
MaxInDHouse:Same reason for every thing. God has given us Power of Choice. Apparently your organization has taken your power of choice and is lording itself over you. This should not be a bad thing if it is truly and sincerely in agreement with the God's Will. |
MaxInDHouse:What God gave scriptures for is for us to know and do His Will and it is not for you or me to decide. It is also decided in the scriptures; 2Tim.3.16-17 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. |
MaxInDHouse:Every written or spoken word/statement is open to confusion or agreement as subject to individual interpretation. What determines the final interpretation is whoever is considered the Overall Authority concerning the word/statement. For Language, it is the Dictionary of that Language- Oxford or Longman for English and others acceptable body. For Profession Jargons, it is whatever book is peculiar to that profession. Lawyers have theirs, likewise Doctors, Engineers, etc For Countries, it is the Constitution as documented by the 3 Arms of government For Religion, it is the Holy Book as documented by it's Progenitor/Founder For JW bible, I believe you agreed that is Jehovah and documented by Charles Taze Russell. it is not that there is no confusion in your bible, because even in your meetings you share your various views. However, all your interpretations must be subject to your leader's interpretation according to your journals. As for the Body of Christ (Disciples of Christ), the scriptural Overall Authority concerning the Bible is the Trinity of God (1 John 5:7) documented by various Authors/Prophets as inspired by God and revealed by God. The agreed interpretation is what is revealed by the God- the Trinity, to the 5 Fold Ministry for the equipping of saints. I know this is quite much to assimilate at once, but I hope it helps. 1 Corinthians 12: 4-6 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. Ephesians 4: 4-16 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. 8 Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men.” (Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also [d]first descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.) And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. |
boltwings:If you don't mind me asking, what does Idolatry mean to you? |
boltwings:Can you boost your communion with God without the Crucifix? |
MaxInDHouse:When we begin to quote from the same bible, I might consider engaging in another discussion with you. |
Zxcvbnmghtr:Because you were busy waiting to hear through your pastor what God wants to reveal to you. There are things a pastor can hear concerning others if God wills. But there are Prophets for that. But when the pastor/prophet speaks when God has not spoken, he will hear his own heart desire and think or assume it is God who spoke. Some do it intentionally, some presumptuously. Deuteronomy 18:20-22 NKJV But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.’ And if you say in your heart, ‘How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?’— when a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not happen or come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him. |
Dreal1247:This is a great day for the Body of Christ especially in Nigeria. Dr Olukoya is a highly respected Man of God and Prophet. This coming from him is significant. May God deliver the church including you and I from our Greed and Love of Money. Fear of Poverty and apparent Love of money are the reason financial prosperity gospel is a hot sell in Nigeria. Any church that ties answered prayers to Tithes is teaching error. But then again our beliefs makes these things actually work. Because our belief is what Faith is. And that is what leads to answered prayers. Genuine Faith that overcomes the world is a gift from God. |
AmandaPrecious:You have a problem with seeing/reading only what you want to see in a statement. You're not to blame, it is the state of your heart. It is the way we are wired as human beings. Our sight and our perception are 2 different phenomena. When this statement finally makes sense to you, every other thing, including my replies to you, will begin to make sense. Who knows, you may even start to believe in God again. Cos apparently you're now an unbeliever. |
chiagozien:How come your tribe believes everyone else is telling lies? No be juju be dat? Na so Lucifer take become Satan o. |
Adabestseason:Same here. Like he set Nigeria on the right path. But God had other plans. I believe God has however remembered Nigeria under this administration because we don too suffer and some of us done repent. God rest the soul of Yar Adua and have mercy on Nigeria and us Nigerians. |
RussellRutherfo:I don't think she's a jezebel. Jezebel spirit is quite obvious- it's a domineering spirit. If what she said is true, she thought she was in the relationship for marriage. The guy probably gave her the condition of test-driving as some men do. |
HonNL:I feel her pain. Guys that balckmail their exes really are made in hell. I hope she gets justice and more importantly I hope she and other ladies learn the most obvious lesson- sexual immorality bites and if possible stop recording yourself during sex. It can easily get into the wrong hands or be used against you when you least expect it I sincerely hope she didn't fo this to promote her movie like some do. |
MaxInDHouse:When you depend on the Holy Spirit, you submit to God's will. It seemed Paul and Peter were divided but they were simply fulfilling each other's calling, one to the circumcised, the other to the uncircumcised. When you understand this, you'll understand every thing that's happening in the Body of Christ cross-denominationally. |
Nonny95:Any one can be tribalistic depending on the circumstances. And any one can thrash their tribalism under the right circumstances. The Yoruba tribe is one of the most accommodating and hospitable tribes in Nigeria. But unfortunately Igbos have decided to take advantage of that. When the rest of Nigeria rejected the igbos post Biafra, it was still Yorubas that still extended open arms in implementing Gowon's 3Rs. You brought Biafra upon yourselves by cohorting with Hausas/Fulanis and cheating Yoruba's Awolowo. The Hausas only needed to see your true duplicitous nature and they knew you could not be trusted. You staged a coup and murdered other tribes and expected them not to revenge? Then you decided you wanted to divide Nigeria by force and Ojukwu declared war. You were actually winning the war until Gowon sought the counsel of the then wisest Nigerian- Awolowo. Awolowo's wisdom turned the tides against you. And for that you can't forgive Yorubas right? But whose fault is it? You betrayed Yorubas. You destroyed Awoolowo's dream of becoming Nigeria's president which you insinuated in him because he was already comfortable as the leader of the Yoruba region. You wonder why you have never tasted presidency ever since? Do you know the Grace that Awolowo carried? Do you know what it means to be the wisest man in the Yoruba region? If not because Awolowo abandoned God and became an atheist, he would probably have been the greatest man Nigeria has ever known. I seem to have deviated from the OP.lol pardon my passion. Anyway, know your history well and know that anyone can be tribalistic under the wrong circumstances but Yorubas are naturally not tribalistic because we are trained culturally to be accommodating people. We still love Igbos but Igbos are hell-bent on their rivalry with Yorubas. Yet who God has blessed, no man can curse. |
PrinceOfLagos:This is the attitude that has been getting Igbos in trouble since before Biafra and I'm wondering is this not obviously a curse? Seeing this picture one would think any normal human being will be happy that Nigeria is being globally repositioned and the glory of Nigeria is being restored. But your ilk had to dent such a momentous moment with your tribalistic bigotry. Unhealthy competition and rivalry was the sin that destroyed Cain. And he ended up committing the first murder recorded on the bible. Guess what that earned him? Another curse on top the curse he already inherited from his father Adam. Una no dey tire to dey heap curses upon curses on your heads, from generation to generation? Why can't your ilk give respect and honor to other tribes even if they outshine you? We know it's not easy but is it not time you learnt the lesson and principle of honor? You have your strengths and weaknesses just as others have their strengths and weaknesses. Some times you will be on top, some times others will be on top. How you handle your time at the top and how you handle your time at the bottom determines if anyone can ever trust you again. You guys lost the Trust of Nigerians even from your very first Presidency with Zik, because of this same Rivalry and your Dubious Duplicitous nature against Yorubas and Hausas/Fulanis. Even the last election that Yorubas still tried to overlook it due to the seemingly good intentions of PO, God still no gree for una to be President again. I have so much I can try to share with you but as always for most of you, words of reason falls on deaf ears. May God deliver Igbos from themselves. Because even when God gives you good governors, you still frustrate and dishonor them. Even most of you never likes PO as a governor, you were onky packaging him just to have an Igbo president. Even Governors Hope Uzodinma and Charles Soludo whom God is using to try to reposition the East in his National agenda, you people still can't see their efforts and give them their due honor. Kilode? O gini? Maka why? Once again, I pray God delivers Igbos from themselves. And this prayer will be answered when the Igbo tribe begins to realise despise/hate their own Pride, Idolatry and Love of Money. I celebrate NOI and PBAT because they are a blessing to this generation. May God continue to establish his Good will in them and through them in Jesus name. Amen |
MatrixReloaded:I don't even need the Oracle to predict your future. You need to be informed like the Merovingian. Even Neo won't be able to save you cos you're on the wrong side in this Matrix. |
Ajibade123:There's levels to this. To some that's enough. To some the pregnancy period is when they're pampered the most so, it's not the same. For some it takes the fear of dying which is experienced at child birth. I hope this helps. |
Yettttttunde:That was quite insensitive of him. I hope he's more sensitive and empathic now? |

But how come? A million and one pastors told us the same with respect to the just concluded Election but it all turned out to be lies. Are you also a pastor?
