Kobojunkiee:Lol this is where you often create enemies with church-goers. No where in the bible does it say going to he church is wrong. In fact it is encouraged that you fellowship with other believers to help strengthen you as iron sharpens iron. However like you rightly adjudged, most churches have become perverted and turned to businesses and social gatherings which often times defeats the purpose of church. And this was what Jesus himself came to fight when he attacked the established "church system" in his own days. Note. Though Jesus attacked the temples. He himself had his own church. His church being a gathering/fellowship of his followers. |
Dtruthspeaker: |
osazsky:C'est la vie. Judas rebelled against Jesus and even had him crucified. Was it because Jesus sinned? |
EmmanuelScott1:Sure. But if you can give Abraham a free pass, just saying. |
EmmanuelScott1:True, Abraham was not under the law. Just like a Christian is not under the law either. Romans 8:2 |
MrBrownJay1:They'll never agree but always deny the obvious truth and find a bible translation that suits them.lol Galatians 4:22-30 sheds more light that Sarah was the wife and Hagar was the bond servant. Not only Abraham slept with his slave, even Jacob his grandson did the same. Most of the 12 tribes of Judah were children of Jacob's wives' slaves. |
ChopAndGo:True. Coz more people have been duped online and in clubs than those that have found love. |
chatinent:The idea is not to find love there. But you could actually end up finding love. Once upon a time, social media and dating sites were a no-no. Today we know a lot of marriages have been consummated online. Even Las Vegas is a place marriages have been consummated. At the end of the day, there are no basic rules. God go settle everybody las las. It's just the way He is. |
Fahdiga:Apparently. |
[quote author= post=103888259]We talk am! ![]() Who says God no dey read sane members prayers for Nairaland. Another prayer to restore peace and tranquility to our nation answered. First was the animal shekau. Next was the mental idiot Cownu, Now the PDP sponsored Dagboru.... Bandits, kidnappers, ritualists, baby factory owners, the evil and sponsored ones among the herdsmen and more idiots coming. A good Sallah gift to sane, honest and hardworking Nigerians.[/quote]Can't seem to understand your excitement over the arrest of Sunday Igboho. How can you still clamour for One Nigeria after all the evidence of the sinister plot of the North to continously conquer and rule the South? Kanu was an extremist which was why as much as I support Biafra, I didn't support Kanu cos he became a terrorist by attacking and even killing his own people (including innocent civilians). Sunday Igboho was not killing his own people but became a necessary force against the killer herdsmen in Yoruba land who were attacking and killing defenceless farmers whose farms and properties were being destroyed in the name of open grazing. You should do your research otherwise you'll find yourself attacking those defending you and defending those killing you. One Nigeria has become a colossal disaster. |
GodHatesBigots:They don't know the meaning of money laundering. They think only politicians launder money. |
FuckEveryday:You mean say the Grace you carry na only to dey pick rich man money for ground. And yo wan take dat one buy car? Toy car sef dey sha You need deliverance. |
Raiders:Only time will tell. |
Shuzzi:And you wonder why you Igbos are being marginalised? You create beef without knowing that you're beefing with butchers. Then yall play the victim card when the butcher reacts. Your innate compulsive I-better-pass-my-neighbour mentality is why you always feel the need to prove yourselves. Imagine Obi Cubana's networth after all the noise and hype is $96million. The true billionaires in other tribes are making and spending their wealth without announcing it to the world. Dangote, Indimi, Abdulsalam, etc Otedola, Mike Adenuga, Obasanjo, etc |
KillMNKnow:As much as I don't want to turn this to a tribal thing, Igbos even within themselves know Anambra people can do rituals just to have a loud burial ceremony for their parents. It's obvious Cubana is just a front. Obi Cubana and his clique are into some illicit shit. Club business is simply a money laundering front. Even acting is simply a front for Zubby Michael. Only Zubby has been linked to Odumeje and other suspicious characters. Pretty Mike's case is relatively more obvious. He is as obvious as the Sun. He definitely is a ritualist and attention seeker. Actually that's a tautology. All ritualists are attention seekers. Please if you have any sense, as an adult you should be able to differentiate between legit and illegit. Dont let all this noise distract you from whatever you success plan is. This people are a distraction and only those without sense or those who have become frustrated and desperate get influenced by their antics. I read a post where a NLders was praying to God to bless him even if it means rituals. Truly that is the intent of these Clouts. Cubana and his clique have been given enough money to deceive even the elects. Which means the devil is ready to make Obi Cubana as rich as possible so that those who have followed Christ or who wish to follow Christ or even other religions who wish to do good will end up being tempted to follow them. Just like Christian's do evangelism, the devil has always been on evangelism. He nearly convinced Jesus to abandon his purpose just to inherit the riches on the worlds. At the end of the day, I believe as an adult the choice is yours. Religion is transient. What matters in this life is whether or not you are remembered for good or evil. Enjoy this life as much as possible cos God is not against enjoyment. But make sure you also have enough good works in your name. Now ignorant Christian's will say no matter your good works, without Christ you're nothing. But obviously, we see a lot of examples in the bible where good works was the criteria for Jesus healings and even the Apostles had no choice but to save people who were not Christian's but had good works due to their impact on the lives and people around them. Even revelations 2 and 3 states clearly that it is the good works that God is judging. That said. Even without religion, just avoid illegalities and give back to your family and society if you're blessed. It's easy to be blessed and forget everyone but it's shows a good heart when after being successful one gives back to others. Besides, Jesus made it clear that its6even the good we do to strangers that count the most. |
gidgiddy:If you have the actual details of his arrest, this might not be a bad time to share it. |
KosiGee:Allow me to play the devil's advocate for a minute. You mean females complimenting each other's beauty makes them gay? So why should it be wrong for a man to acknowledge that another his handsome or sexy? This is a black American mentality that we imbibed from TV shows and rap music. Imagine blacks even conclude that a guy is gay just because he looks neat and handsome. Worse still if he ever wears any pink shirt. Yes it's difficult to spot gay dudes but for no reason should acknowledging that another male is handsome or sexy without any attempt at flirting be considered as gay. My 2 cents though. |
saphiere:Too many to pick from. Just listening to Craze World alone is enough to see he was blessed with many literary skills. |
mancoconut:I can't believe what I'm reading!!! |
Mikecold:Most APC members today are from PDP. Besides APC and PDP are the same. In fact, that he was a partisan at all shows he is interested in politics of his nation, whether for personal gains or actual change. Most of those attacking him here now only sit behind their mobile phones typing crap instead of being a part of the political system where they can actually effect the change they want instead of criticising everyone else. I dont trust any politician but I still respect them more than wet blanket no-do-gooders who constitute the majority of social media users. |
Teadavid23:I dont want to conclude that you're waiting for the break of the relationship. I want to believe you're waiting for the culmination of the relationship into marriage |
doggedfighter:I couldn't have said it better. |
lalasticlala:I'm so happy this gotten international attention because Buhari's govt seems to have a way of silencing anyone against its agenda. Never ever before have Nigerians envisaged paying this much for food and other cost of living. While Buhari is busy promoting his investment in Agriculture, it is pretty ironic that the cost of agricultural produce has never been skyrocketed as we have presently. Not only are soup items more expensive than ever but even ya had become food for only the elites. |
aminulive:As much as I find so much sense in this writ, we can't deny the necessity of a referendum at this point of our national existence. Yes, successful Igbos do not want a divided nation, yet the oppression and impunity of the Northerners cannot be denied. This Buhari led administration has created an ecosystem for both the Igbo, Yoruba and even other ethnic groups to fight for self determination. Because Buhari has made it clear that he is for Fulani herdsmen and Muslims and not for Nigerians. |
ictjobber:How do you mean though? Cos I believe no one deserves this Buhari government. |
Since his election in 2015, Buhari has proven to be a colossal mistake elected by the Nigerian masses. Interestingly PDP and the Easterners saw through the charade and cried against the election of Buhari on the premise of his Tribal, Military and Religious extremism. However this was seen as a political propaganda by PDP simply to retain its power and continue to milk the nation dry. The level of corruption then seemed unprecedented. Today, Buhari has lived up to his reputation. In fact every single one of the warnings of PDP has come to reality before our very eyes. 1. He claimed to fight against corruption while he himself is guilty of corruption. - He swore to declare his assets but it was never made public. He himself is both President of Nigeria and Minister for Petroluem. - He swore that under his administration no public office holder would seek medical attention abroad. We all know how that went. He has been on medical trips since his very first term and even just traveled last week on another medical trip paid for by tax payers money. Where as the average Nigerian is left to the underdeveloped public hospitals where minor sicknesses claim Nigerian lives daily under preventable circumstances, such as lack of Power supply, inexperienced and inadequately trained staff and also rules and regulations that prioritize govt policies over human lives. 2. He claimed to end Boko Haram. It is interesting that after 6 years, Buhari has failed to end Boko Haram terrorism. And in fact supporting new terrorist organisations including Fulani Herdsmen, Myetti Allah, Banditry among others. 3. He claimed to be for everybody and no body. While this seemed to be directly at Tinubu during his swearing in, it has obviously taken a new turn. Though he successfully played Tinubu to get the votes of the yorubas, it is obviously that Buhari is definitely for his Fulani and the Cabal. His policies and decisions have brought to limelight what Ojukwu and Biafrans have decried for a long time, that the average Fulani is domineering and seeks only to rule the rest of the country. Buhari is a Danfodite, and their belief system justifies every action against non Muslims, and at such makes them dangerous to every non-Muslim Nigerian. The average Northerner, especially Fulani believes Nigeria is not a country belonging to a collective people. But that Nigeria is country belonging to the Northerners to rule its other citizens. Unfortunately with a religious undertone, every non-Muslim is at risk under an Danfodite. This therefore gives credence to the fears 9f Christian's of Buhari's agenda to Islamicize Nigeria. 4. Trampling on every Human and Civic Right of Nigerians. When Buhari abducted Dikko back in the 80s some celebrated him while the UK fought against his anti-democratic approach. Today Buhari has certainly lived up to his reputation by silencing every Nigerian who speaks against his tyranny. Nnamdi Kanu, Deji Adeyanju, Sowore, Sunday Igboho. All these freedom fighters have been arrested and even jailed at some point for speaking against the Buhari-led tyrannical government. The duplicity of Buhari-led administration is pronounced when considering his fight against non-Fulani. While he fights viciously against Non-Muslims and Non-Fulanis, he obviously from all indications pets and even protects Myetti Allah extremist group and Fulani herdsmen killers. Why? Simply because he is himself a part of them. Buhari is a Myetti Allah and Fulani Herders supporter. As a Christian is preaching the gospel of Jesus through peace. Buhari believes Myetti Allah and Boko Haram are also preaching the Islamic teachings even though through violence. Because the Quran preaches fighting and even killing to preach Allah. Also the Cattle business is a major business to the Northerners. Buhari himself has proclaimed his investment in the cattle business. So anything or anyone that possess a threat to his cattle business is considered an enemy. Which is why he has openly expressed his fight against the ban on Open grazing. Even commanding the Attorney general to find the law that can allow open grazing. Though all the victims and governors who have experienced the violence of Fulani Herdsmen have expressed their legal rights against Open grazing but Buhari and his Fulani herding business partners are not ready to listen to democratic reason. Finally, Buhari is against a democratically right peaceful Rally and Freedom of expression having arrested Endsars protesters and recently Yoruba nation protesters. He even sent DSS to intimidate Sundqy Igboho and kill his aides just to prevent the peaceful rally. This is quite sad because even Buhari enjoyed peaceful rallies and protest against the Jonathan led administration. After all is said and done, while I encourage everyone to be careful, we cannot afford to remain silent. Either through social media or physical rallies, we have to continue to express our grievance against every oppressive and tyrannical leadership much as we're in a democratic government. As long as Democracy remains defined as Government of the people for the people by the people. |
hopefulLandlord:You're right. There's no difference between a believer and a non-believer. There's simply different terminologies involved. When an unbeliever is going through challenges, it is called Gods judgment or punishment for his sins. But when a believer is going through challenges it is called Trials and tribulations to test his faith. ![]() Cos both believers and unbelievers experience the Blessings and hardships of life alike. Matthew 5:45 The issue of heaven and hell is even debatable among Christians. But as Paul rightly put it, without the existence of heaven and hell, a believer is of all people the most miserable. Because a true believer is not meant to be entangled in the things of earth but live a life of service to God and humanity without chasing wealth or titles, even abandoning his family if God pleases. So his goal should be heavenly treasures not earthly possessions. But we all know most of the Daddy GOs we have today are busy acquiring more earthly possessions than even unbelievers. |
thundafire:He never leaves But wants you to look for him? If you have to look for him, that means he's not there. Or just means he enjoys hide and seek. |
blackmanblack:New testament believers hate to see this portion of the bible. |
debbycreamy:I wish someone would explain why this happens. Dominion City and RCCG share almost the same pattern of service unlike the orthodox churches so it should naturally be a seamless transition for you but for some reason it isnt. I commend your attempt at adjusting for 2 years. But like you said, you're just not feeling it there. While I cant say it's because the Holyspirit is not present in your husband's church because I want to believe others experience his presence there. Perhaps theres a covenant you've made to God that you'd never leave Dominion City which may be the cause of your unrest elsewhere. Pray about it and see how it goes. It's usually better for couples to worship in the same church. But no where does it say In the bible that it must be compulsorily so. |
Gbagura:Does that mean no one should speak out against Buhati's impunity and bigotry? MNK may have been wrong by declaring terror on those who oppose him but that doesnt exonerate Buhari from his crimes against democracy and humanity. Before Buhari, religious, political and especially tribal division has never been this pronounced. Buhari has made most Nigerians see Nigeria through the average Fulani's eyes. The average Fulani for some reason believes Nigeria is their inheritance. I believe Ojukwu picked up on this early which led to the earlier Biafra/Civil war. Although Ojukwu lost the battle, Buhari has proven that ojukwu's war was justified. Because Fulanis are given a first class preferential status while Yoriba, Igbos, Southerners and even Hausas are relegated to second or 3rd class citizenry. I'm actually thankful for Buhari because prior to now I di not see how bigotry the Fulanis were. But thanks to Buhari and Usman Dan Fodio folowership I now see that some sects see themselves more special than others. The secession of Nigeria as an entity is no longer inevitable because Nigeria is definitely not a nation because Fulanis and Danfodites see it as their possession. And the rest of the nation has woken up to reality. |
