Kobojunkiee:
If indeed you believe Jesus Christ to be the Truth then what part has the lies in our OP to do with HIm?

Focus on The Christ.
Feel free to ignore whatever you don't agree with.

MaxInDHouse:
"Christ alone"

Yet you're here claiming what others disagreed with when they're also claiming they belong to the same CHRIST!

Most of you don't know what Christ stands for, you just assume that once the name is mentioned every other thing should be swept under the carpet.

Well continue searching for those having your Christ ALONE without any form of disagreement!

We can disagree all we want but let Christ remain the central point.

Kobojunkiee:
My issue is with the lies in your OP which purport to be of Jesus Christ when they are not.

Christ alone is the truth.
Everything else is a lie.

Kobojunkiee:
Your misconception of Paul's opinion aside, If you do not know Him— Jesus Christ— before you leave this world, does that mean you have no assurance of where you stand with Him or what?

Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
(1 John 3:2)

MaxInDHouse:
YES!
And the purpose of the Christ is to gather imperfect but faithful humans under one umbrella so if anyone is claiming he or she knows the Christ but can't point out his or her brethren with whom to share the same line of thought just as Christ did @ Matthew 12:46-50 such a person hasn't known Christ!

With all Apostle Paul's exploits he was still praying to know Christ (Philippians 3:10).
Till we see Him we will never know Him fully.
Even in our misconceptions and misunderstandings, we'll keep seeking Him on this side of God's kingdom

MaxInDHouse:
Funny Churchgoers!

So anyone making noise on social media is an advocate of Christ shey?

Well that's why we implore you people to study the Bible with two or three persons as a group {Matthew 18:20 compare to Malachi 3:16} so that you can gain accurate knowledge.

The tag "CHRISTIANS" was given to the disciples of Jesus in an ancient city called "Antioch" they were moving in pairs from house to house just as their teacher taught them {Luke 10:1} that's what the inhabitants of Antioch saw before they began calling them "CHRISTIANS" meaning the followers of the man from Nazareth claimed he is the CHRIST.

So if anyone is saying anything but unable to present his or her fellow believers {Matthew 12:46-50} who are also teaching the same thing then such a person is not one of the disciples of Christ Jesus {1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} Jesus formed a group of preachers and teachers, and begged his father to unite them as One {John 17:22} therefore whoever can't point to his or her fellow believers with whom he or she shared the same line of thought is a worker of INIQUITY! Matthew 7:21-23

Christ is the ultimate point. As long as He is the focus of discussion, salvation is near.
Thank you for joining in discussing Christ.

Kobojunkiee:
The Spirit of God is not a magician. He will not force the Truth of God on you if you do not first seek and submit to it. He will not shove the Truth of God at you when you choose the lies instead. And by the way, the Holy Spirit cannot live inside of anyone who is not first Holy — set free from slavery to sin—, so when I hear people who spread lies using the name of God say that the Holy Spirit lives inside of them, I wonder if they are intentionally trying to make God an accomplice in the lies they spew against Jesus Christ.

I am happy seeing you advocating for Christ and holiness.
Well done!!!

Kobojunkiee:
Jesus Christ did insist that all lies spread in His name are against Him — antiChrist— so I do not see how one striving for Him would busy Himself with spewing lies using His name is what.

He alone is the TRUTH.
Leave me to the Holy Spirit.

Kobojunkiee:
He is the Truth and He warned His followers against those who would use His name to teach lies and deceit.

I'm glad you acknowledge Him as the truth. Stick to that knowledge. I'll keep striving to become like Him

Kobojunkiee:
Don't worry about me. Let's stop posting lies using the name of Jesus Christ in the meantime.

Christ will forever remain in the forefront of our discusses. HE however is the only truth.

Kobojunkiee:
Paradise means the grave, and those who die either cease to exist or sleep in the grave.

Whichever way, stay connected to Christ.
Like I said, no arguments.

Kobojunkiee:
1. Jesus Christ Himself said you should pray without ceasing, what He didn't say though is that prayer lights you up or keeps you connected to God.

2. Jesus Christ was specific in that case but again, Jesus Christ never said that prayer and fasting are the way to connect to the Father.

3. The House of God referenced in Matthew 21 was in fact the Temple in Jerusalem at the time. God Himself destroyed that House and made it unholy promising that when the time of the resurrection comes, He would restore His Temple and gather all Nations to it Himself. Let's be careful to stop twisting the Word to pretend it says what it does not in fact say.

4. Jesus Christ urged His disciples to pray but He never said that prayer was the key to doing God's bidding nor that prayer was the key to receiving from God.

5. Sure, you can go on and on but the fact is Jesus Christ never said prayer is the key as far as the Kingdom of God nor to getting God's attention. What Jesus Christ instead said is that those who love Him are those who obey His teachings and commandments - John 14 vs 15 - 23 and that doing the Will of His Father is how one earns the Love of God - John 15 vs 9 - 11.

Ok.
No arguments.
Christ is the goal.
Remain connected to Him.
See you in paradise.

Kobojunkiee:
Prayer and fasting do absolutely none of what you claim here since God Himself never said it is your prayer that He reacts to. Rather, what God said, and remains the solution to this day is obedience that progresses through to holiness and then righteousness, that is what God requires/mandates from all those who seek Him, and He will never lower His standard for any man. For this reason, Jesus Christ urged His followers to seek first the Kingdom of God(Holiness), and God's righteousness in order that all these things — the promises and blessings of the Kingdom of God— shall be added onto one. You cannot reject God's instructions and still expect God to be excited about you.

It is written specifically in the bible that we should pray without ceasing (1 Thes. 5:17).

In Matthew 17:21, Christ Himself specifically pointed out that prayer and fasting should go hand in hand for difficult cases.

Your submissions are in order but also remember that it is written that 'my house should be a house of prayer' (Matt 21:13). Christ was even disappointed that His disciples could not pray with Him even for an hour. (Matt 26:40).

I can go on and on. Please encourage men to pray as the Lord has asked us.

Some Nigerians know how to make things difficult for themselves. You can't stop racism but you can choose how to deal with it. It is your job to carry yourself with dignity regardless of the passport you are carrying.

Simple question and the Nigerian turned it to something else.

Immigration official: Do you have a return ticket?

Usual Nigerian: What kind of question is this? Check your system and find out.

Dignified Nigerian: Yes Sir.

Even the worst racist gets disarmed by dignity because racism is foolish. Would have narrated several personal experiences but not on nairaland.

Fathers please carry your children along. Don't just send them to school. Let them see how you do what you do.
See as that boy was looking up to his dad in the first pic. He was seeing what he was going to become.

There are levels to this church thing. It can be difficult to sit under certain ministers and listen to their carnal ministrations.

If you look deeper though, wherever people are gathered in HIS NAME, He is there. Always very in whose name people gather.

What is this?

You carefully avoided mentioning names.
A Nigerian is a Nigerian.

It's normal to want to appear like the spirit dwelling within you. She will never be satisfied till she looks like what is driving her.

Water leaf

I don't understand people who post pictures of themselves daily or even multiple times a day. If you view and don't comment they'll say you don't appreciate them.

Godlessness!!!

plenitude:
Now i know why truth is really difficult to tell in this country… if you think I am telling lies come to Abuja airport and figure it out yourself

I didn't doubt you for one second. I was only being sarcastic because some people in this country are shameless. We've heard stories of some flights being delayed from landing or taking off because cows were on the runway. I believe you oh!

Probably Photoshop or AI generated.

Warren Buffet still looks like a boss in the trenches

The good thing about eating one's words is that it doesn't make one fat.

However, this new development even if it is being considered is a red flag that President Tinubu is not as prepared for governance as he campaigned. Unfortunately, not appearing for media interactions or debate didn't help. That President Tinubu knew he would implement the removal of subsidy and floating of Naira soon after inauguration but had no plans to manage the consequences of the these major policy shift paints a scary picture about his future policies.

My suggestion is that Tinubu could go on and appoint Wale Edun the Finance minister as well as appoint his President Economic Team for the usual armchair 'economic indicators' advice. However, he should he headhunt for some young hothead economists and financial experts and place them under his office to serve as his thinktank in brainstorming on policies, creating scenarios, doing risk-benefit analyses, SWOT Analysis, etc to give him the big picture and bird eye view advantages. We need practical ideas from thinking out of box to solve our problems here rather than some textbooks stuff.

How on earth is value of Naira falling and the CBN is speaking grammar. How about rolling about plans with sincere incentives to encourage the local production and exports to cure our trade deficits. Nothing is happening in our economy at the moment. We are just selling crude oil. What about other solid natural minerals? If we share borders with Niger, are we sure we don't have uranium?

How do you help a man who left a "carefully" scripted inaugural speech to comment on such a sensitive matter as subsidy removal? Within the first hour of his tenure he threw the whole nation into unrelenting pain and confusion.

It's clear that he is proud and carelessly impulsive. No amount of advisers can help him.

Exploring is good but nothing can compare to the security and support of a loving family. If deep down you know that your people love you, then please stay at home and continue making your little savings. Other opportunities that will not require you to go against your family, exhaust your savings and start suffering for nothing will come.

In this my little life I've explored oh! But success is sweeter when you succeed by defying wicked people. If you know your people are not wicked please listen to them at this time. There's really no hurry. Some are already 50yrs with nothing even after leaving home at 25.

Ok you mistakenly had an erection. Then you went ahead to mistakenly remove her pant. How on earth do you then mistakenly Locate her kpekus? Please where is the mistake in plugging your rod into the kpekus? I can go on and on.
It's even worse trying to analyze the mistake from the female angle.

Are we not tired of these kinds of posts?
