Christianity EtcRe: List Of The Largest Evangelical Church Auditoriums: First Three Are In Nigeria by Myer(m): 10:48am On Jun 13, 2021
WittyLad:
Yet nah we poor and corrupt pass undecided, of what relevance is a country with big auditoriums, but small jobs?
Big auditoriums, yet no peace lipsrsealed
This simply goes on to prove there's no positive correlation between Christianity and Righteousness.

Nigeria having the highest number of Christians in Africa should translate to being the most prosperous country in Africa.

Alas, Nigeria is still listed among the most corrupt, least developed and least secure nations in Africa and the world.

It makes it difficult to believe the bible.
Christianity EtcRe: I'm Seriously Sick & I'm Fasting. If I Use Drug, Is The Fasting Still Relevant? by Myer(m): 9:47am On Jun 13, 2021
Igbojihadist:
Good morning Nairalanders.

Please I need advice on this. I was given fasting and praying which is supposed to end today but yesterday night i was not feeling alright then I visited a doctor who gave me some medications and placed me on drug, I'm suppose to use some this morning but I'm afraid I might spoil my fasting.

PLS I NEED ADVICE

Una happy sunday
So you're fasting and praying and you're still sick?

You should pray for healing. That's actually an opportunity to put God's divine Word to reality.
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Has Been Preached To The Ends Of The World by Myer(op):
Prettygirl27:
You have come to this conclusion because you don't have an in depth knowledge of the scriptures nor do you have of history.

Ancient Rome was known by many names, one of which was the phrase "Caput Mundi", the Capital of the world.

Jesus said: "but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth (region)." (Acts 1:8 ).

Have you ever wondered why the Book of Acts of the Apostles begins with the Apostles witnessing in Jerusalem, then the whole of Judea, to Samaria (Acts 8:5) and finally with Paul setting foot in Rome (Acts 28:10)?

And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome. (Acts 23:11)

It is instructive to note that the instruction of Jesus was not bound by space as the Roman empire stretched throughout Europe to as far as England, beyond Arabia and parts of Africa, but was bound by time.

Time: Let's take a glimpse at the giant image in Nebuchadnezzar's dream. It was made of four metals and towards the end of the last metal, clay was mixed with it. The last metal is Rome.

We know that this dream was God's way of showing us the transition of rule (over the world) by dynasties before a stone (not cut by human hands) destroys the image from its feet. That stone signifying the Kingdom of God taking over the whole world.

As we know it, the Kingdom of God is not come. And if God's interpenetration is anything to go by, Rome is still in control of the earth, though not with absolute power due to the influence of clay on it.

Therefore, the gospel must continue because the time for its discontinuity hasn't come.

Even in his death he's still doing more that most so called men of God.

I just realised after his death that he had even built a mosque. Meaning he preached the gospel of Christ that transcends religious divisions.

He was definitely an enlightened one.

It's interesting that reactions to his death bears a lot of similarity to reactions to the death of Christ.

1. The poor and the widows are in mourning for losing the man of God who truly cared for them.

2. Some of the established church leaders are in celebration of his death. Even saying he cast out demons through the devil. Matthew 12:24 (Okotie and his cohorts should take note).

3. His good works are being celebrated and his legacy is being celebrated all over the world.
PoliticsJack Dorsey Celebrates Nigeria Democracy Day by Myer(op): 8:09am On Jun 12, 2021
At exactly 12am June 12, Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey posted a tweet of the Nigerian flag in celebration of Democracy Day.

Some have commended him for celebrating democracy in Nigeria.
However some have criticized him for exacerbating the situation between Twitter and the Nigerian FG, assuaging the fact that he is subtly sending a message of the irony of a democratic nation banning the microblogging platform for deleting the tweet of the President Muhammadu Buhari after it was reported for breaking its Terms and Conditions

This comes amidst the calls for rallies against the Buhari administration to protest against the high level of insecurity, poor economy, abuse of power!, etc scheduled to hold in strategic locations in Nigeria.

What's your opinion on this?

The hypocrisy.
Even when a notable personality has an event, there is usually traffic. Talkless of the President who is the most notable personality as far as Nigeria is concerned.

Cheistians especially have no basis to criticise Buhari when Mowe-Ibafo route is constantly plagued by traffic every sunday and woefial days because of church services with the GO.

Anyway, I'm more disappointed that Kanu has not admitted his failure and covered his face in shame since Buhari has proved him wrong by visiting public spaces and interacting with Nigerians even though he claimed Buhari was dead and Jubril who is supposedly a doppelganger is sitting in Aso Rock.
RomanceRe: It is a disgrace for a male to stoop for another male to insert his penis. Shame by Myer(m): 6:48am On Jun 11, 2021
elated177:
Is it not interesting that Yahushua the Messiah sanctioned only sexual relationship between a man and his wife when he talked about marriage, divorce and adultery?

Is it not interesting that Yahushua the Messiah unequivocally upheld heterosexuality when he stated that men should not look at women lustfully?

Romans 1 also talked about and condemned homosexuality.

Let us even assume that neither Yahushua the Messiah nor any of disciples nor Paul condemned homosexuality, did not the Law and the Prophets condemn homosexuality? Are you separating the Laws and the Prophets from Yahushua the Messiah, the Word of the Father in heaven?



Speak for yourself, Mr. No where did I exalt homosexuality.



Are you sure you detest homosexuality? Preaching against homosexuality is part of the Gospel. Homosexuality is not part of the Righteous Walk. It is rather against the Righteous Walk.


The Father in heaven chooses upon whom he bestows his Spirit. The job of the messenger is to deliver the message and the Set-apart Spirit identifies those who are worthy of his presence.

Sin has been defined. What was sin 3000 years ago is still sin today. It is the Set-apart Spirit that helps the saints, servants and messengers of Yahushua the Messiah abstain from sin.

The Spirit of the Father in heaven is not going to tell anyone anything contrary to what he has already stated in Scriptures concerning homosexuality or any other sin.
I only have one question for you. What is the difference between the old testament and the new testament?
RomanceRe: It is a disgrace for a male to stoop for another male to insert his penis. Shame by Myer(m): 9:42pm On Jun 10, 2021
elated177:
It is actually a very big disgrace for a man/male to position himself for his fellow man/male to insert his penis. It shows the fallen state of mankind.

It is a a very big shame for a woman/female to display herself for her fellow woman/female to caress and handle.

Homosexuality/lesbianism is the height of shamelessness.

Homosexuality/lesbianism is the worst kind of depravity.

Abstain from the abominable act of homosexuality/lesbianism.
Is it not interesting that neither Jesus nor the apostles said anything about homosexuality except apostle Paul?
It's only mention in the new testament is in 1 Corinthians 6:9

Yet we have exalted homosexuality above adultery, fornication, murder, drunkenness which are mentioned far more times.

As much as I personally detest Homosexuality I think there's more to preach about the gospel.

You should be more concerned people being baptised with the Holyspirit and let him be the one convicting their hearts since that is one of his own works.

Christianity EtcRe: TB Joshua: Okotie Celebrates The Death Of 'Lucifer', Shares Cryptic Post by Myer(m): 8:54am On Jun 10, 2021
Threebear:
Show me the part of the Bible that it was expressively stated that Lucifer is Satan ?
Show me where it was stated that Lucifer is a fallen angel or that he was the leader of the angels ?

You people misinterpreted the bible and stuck with your misinterpretations.

The same way Mary Magdalene was accused of being a prostitute while the adulteress had no name.

The same way the nameless fruit that Eve ate suddenly became an apple .

The same way the wise men that visited Jesus were said to be three in number when their numbers were not mentioned .

The same way you people concluded that Jesus died at 33 , when there is no evidence supporting it.

This is not my belief but a fact .

Satan was not expressively tagged as Lucifer anywhere in the Bible.

Infact Lucifer was only ever addressed as a king of Babylon who fell from grace.

If you have any evidence except of course your opinion disapproving of my statement , you're welcome to bring it.
I couldn't have said it better.
The original Hebrew never mentioned Lucifer but shiny one or daystar or morning star". Even other bible translations never mentioned Lucifer.
Even Jesus was called Daystar and Morning Star.

But the same way some pastors have clained that apple was the fruit in the garden of Eden, a lot of misinformation permeates the Christian space.
I even know of a pastor who has sworn off eating apple at all because he claims it was the fruit in the garden.

The book of revelations which gave all his names never mentioned Lucifer.
Revelation 12:9
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."

Rissimenky:

You so-called educated Nigerian youths that should see Twitter's ban as an OPPORTUNITY to use your own brains to develop a platform, are too busy shouting and abusing Buhari for banning Twitter, to employ your own creativity and innovation.

After all it was in this same Nigeria that some Lagos boys developed Paystack, which was later bought by Stripe for 200 million dollars.

So what is stopping you from building a 'Twitter' app, instead of crying that the FG took away business from oyinbo people?

Are you cursed to depend on whites all your lives?

Are you really a wasted, useless, hopeless, dependent generation?
Well said.
But you could have left out the last 2 paragraphs.
It's actually an opportunity for app developers to provide a local social media platform that could garner enough attention and subscription to compete in the global market.
Christianity EtcRe: What TB Joshua Said About His Mother And Father (Photos) by Myer(m): 8:09pm On Jun 09, 2021
costandi:
One thing I noticed about TB Joshua was his similarity to Jesus. His main opposition was not the secular leadership of the day. The religious leaders were and they accused him of the very things that Jesus was accused of - Heresy, blasphemy, and fetishism. Like Jesus, he left the world early, with so much impact to show. They hated him till death and rejoiced over it, thinking it was all over. I am convinced that like Jesus, his death be the spark that lit the world with his message.

Simple, then use another platform



No, I am backing the universal right to freedom of speech, and the right not to be banned because someone disagrees with your way of doing things...plus I am not that active on Twitter anyways

Again, you no like twitter...you go another platform,or form one yourself.
Exactly, and the president has the right to ban it when it is a security risk. Which is why it has been banned in some countries including China. Even UK was on the verge of banning it.

So that makes Buhari right to ban Twitter, in your opinion.

You are now in essence supporting Buhari because Trump gave his support to his autocratic action.

If you don't like Twitter, join another platform. If you don't like CNN use other media outlets. I myself have long since abandoned CNN
That makes Twitter liable to sanctions.
Twitter itself is banning freedom of speech as long as it is against their own views all in the guise of Terms and Conditions.
You're only supporting Twitter now because Buhari is a failed president.

A lot of Nigerians supporting Twitter now were against Twitter when it was deleting Donald Trump's tweets about Covid-19.

Did you not see how Twitter deleted most of Donald Trump's tweets on Covid-19 and Elections just because Jack is Pro-democrats?
Which eventually pushed Trump to also fall victim to their tactics culminating to the protest at the Capitol?

Anyways, obviously you've not been a victim, you won't understand.
The point here is just as CNN and most media houses are tools for pushing the agenda of a sect of people, social media tools have also become their tools.

Thank God that America as a nation has strong institutions that were able to limit the excesses of the twice impeached orange man if not he would have done the same to America when Twitter permanently sent him to the oblivion of irrelevance.

If only Nigeria had strong institutions too to limit the excesses of dictators.


Thank God 81 million Americans removed that sick man from office.The orange head needs big tech more than big tech needs him,no wonder he had to end his blog because he couldn't get the attention he had on Twitter and tried to enter Twitter again last month and Jack banned the account again.

Like Trump like Buhari that is why I am amazed that people support Trump then hate Buhari they are the same thing the only difference is that America had strong institutions to curtail him which Nigeria unfortunately doesn't have
So Trump was a dictator?
I wish you'd live in North Korea or Russia or Zimbabwe to know what Dictator means.

No offense but you need to know that you're socially unintelligent.
You've allowed the media with social media to insinuate a narrative into your mindset now you're simply playing to their gallery.

Christianity EtcRe: Seven Important Ways To Prepare For The Second Coming Of Christ. by Myer(m):
GILHpm:
If we have being risen with Christ, the next step is to prepare for the coming of Christ, by seeking above Where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Here are seven ways to prepare for the coming of Christ.

1) We need to receive Jesus Christ into our life (hope), and receive the Holy Ghost (Righteousness).


2) We need to be baptized with water. It signifies repentance and cleansing of the old ways.


3) We need to walk humbly, love mercy and forgiveness.


4) We need to pray for the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

5) We need to seek the kingdom of God and it righteousness.


6) We need to praise, glorify and give thanks to God and do all things to the glory of God.

7) We need to be watcful and sober, praying in tongues of heaven and meditating on the Words of God.
Interestingly I couldn't help but notice how you omitted the baptism of the Holyspirt which Christ and the apostles considered perhaps the most important aspect of being reborn. John 3:5-8, John 14:26, Acts1:8 Acts 10:44-47,1 Cor 12:1-13

Also everytime God spoke in the bible he spoke in terms of the astrological things in the sky. for example

job 38 vs 31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?

Pleaides is a cluster of stars in the constellation Taurus and Orion is a constellation too in the sky.
I quite believe in the influence of the stars on our personalities and some times the turn of events in our lives.

Like you rightly quoted the wise men were able to trace Jesus birth as being a King through their expertise in astrology.

Even some have cited verses in the bible of knowledge of times and seasons as referring to knowledge of horoscope.

Though Job 38:31 was simply referring to God's power in creating and holding the stars in place over the skies, not horoscope.
Every mention of star does not refer to horoscopes.

Anyway, my point is that you should be more specific that's when it does not sound like another charade and you can be more reliable.
