When it comes to Rev Anita, pray for her. If you are married to a man of God, it doesn't make you automatically mature, you can make mistakes.."

"Christians should not have a divorce, it shouldn't be. But that doesn't mean a Christian should not take this step, they may, but that doesn't make it right, and we shouldn't take one another to court. But when it happens, we are not the one going there, someone is taking us there. That's the problem..."


Case closed

The pastor never wanted Divorce, his estranged wife went to Court to seek Divorce

Abusers have never been observed to want separation from their victims,
in fact some will threaten death to keep the relationship slavery
alive.

The pretender is even asking people to "pray for Anita" instead of "pray for chris" , if his prayers
were ever effective he wouldn't be in this defensive situation.

fingard02k:
Didn't he divorce his wife? Ayam not understanding

Do as I say, don't do as I do.

Fairgodwin:
I know so many people will come here to read scientific meanings to it with so many fallible proofs (especially the one that happened in Russia), but it still wouldn't change the fact that the end is truly nearer than ever.

If you believe in God, keep believing [in Him] and holding on [to Him], if you don't believe in God, keep believing in whatsoever you believe in if that's what you think would save you on the last day.

Whatever you think would work for you and whatever you think is best for you, keep focusing on it.
As for you Christians out there and all those who believe in the gospel of salvation through Jesus, I use this opportunity as a medium of contact to you, please do not relent for surely if you tarry still for a little [more] while, He shall surely come for you.

I'm not even speaking in regards to this (blood thing), whether it is real or not is entirely not much of my concern, but I just felt compelled to tell every believer out there to stand firm and earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.


I wish every Nairalander a happy day ahead and an awesome night rest later tonight.
God bless you all.

SMH,
did you bother to read the news ?

nastyesco:
Sorry Bro u are quite wrong and I will cite 3 examples where Chinese are ahead of west in innovation
1. We Chat: has incorporated payment system amongst other platforms which Facebook has been repeatedly trying to incorporate to its platform. WeChat was the pioneer in this regard
2. The Dual Camera innovation on iPhone 7 was already on Huawei P9 which was already on sale before iPhone 7 was announced
3.Huawei in the field of Telecoms backend equipment (only telecoms engineer are aware of this) deployed BSC6900, BTS3900 which were new and game changers in this field.
4.Innovation represents a rude change in the way of doing things...after all Steve Jobs didn't invent Mobile phones nor data phones...he just radicalised what we do with out phones...source has been included

1. I will give it to wechat for being the first to incorporate an already
existing payment system into their platform.

2. While dual cameras may be new to iphone and huawei , it isn't new
in the smartphone world, hence there is nothing spectacular about
huawei launching the P9.

3. I am not an engineer so I will pass on this.

My point still stand that current chinese prosperity was as a result of
adoption rather than innovation, perhaps you may have interpreted
that as "chinese don't innovate" but I believe all industrial nations
do innovate at least to some extent but the effect of such innovation
on the country's wealth is where my argument lies.

Steve jobs may not have invented mobile phone, but the smartphone's
history cannot be complete without the iphone.

Ok

I don't think the title is appropriate, chinese prosperity was as
a result of using tested proven western business and technological
model not innovating per se.
I will say the chinese are replicators of success not innovators.

@nastyesco, can you include the source.

DeepSight:
What has happened to you? ? ?

It appears you have conflated spirituality with religion. . . .

You know very well that these two things are different.

If not for the pursuit of the spiritual, what purpose and inner meaning can a human being put to life?
Would man not simply exist as a hobbesian beast?

When you look at a human being, what do you see?

When you look at yourself, what do you see?

A meaningless physical agglomeration of darting physical micro-particles which somehow comes together as one, not just to feed itself in physical terms but to even project ideas to change the world. Is this the thing that you believe is a mere beast, nothing more than an intelligent and advanced beast?

Regardless advancement, do you not see a clear - and - improbably too wide gap between the faculties of man and those of other creatures?

How often have you sat before and contemplated the dead body of a close friend or relative? If you have done this, you would understand that there is absolutely nothing to the physical life save the pursuit of, and refinement of our real spiritual existence outside this vehicle called a body.

How does your "pursuit of spirituality" makes spirituality real ?
How does this same pursuit benefits you ?

You must understand that not everyone is intoxicated by baseless and
unfounded propositions especially an inquisitive mind.

naijafella:
Ogun state.... Always making headlines for wrong reasons.If not ritualitsts today,cultism tomorrow, if not kidnappers, you sure bet it will be child slavery,...

With your comment which is typical of simpletons, I am forced to believe that many Nigerians are indeed educated
illiterates.

How dare you make such an ignorant statement simply based on headlines without
asking questions ?

Do you have the crime rates of other states ?

Isn't it obvious to you that states with proximity to a lot of press houses will feature more in news ?

SMH.

diva90:
Remember that was back then! Times have greatly changed. These days it's not a good idea for any woman to get married at such a young age. Not only is she naive and hasn't seen what life is all about at that age but then again, marriage is just too complicated these days. Let her go to school and discover herself first. Explore a career while building her skills and making some little money of her own. Marriage can come when she's 24 or 25 and above.

I don't believe in fixing marriage age for non-minors,
my only objection in this case is that she is still a hopeful
undergraduate, if she was already in 200/300l I would have
supported that she go ahead with the marriage.

As to marriage these days being complicated, the times is
not to blame , it is two people with widely different expectations
getting married to each other that creates the complications,
it doesn't matter if they are in early 20s or late 30s.

raphieMontella:
34 the women should keep quiet in the meetings. They
are not allowed to speak; as the Jewish Law says,
they must not be in charge. 35 If they want to find out about something, they should ask their
husbands at home. It is a disgraceful thing for a
woman to speak in a church meeting

you didnt finish it sire

So much hate for women from a supposedly loving "god".

Is this not another proof that the "god" concept is as misogynistic as the society
that invented it ?

lurther:
You remember those campaign days of Buhari and APC leading to the 2015 elections. Aisha Buhari made this same mistake and still APC won.

Then every APC supporter kept on saying that even if Buhari present a Nepa bill certificate they will still vote him. Buhari and his wife kept on making mistakes and Zombies were all saying the would vote an illiterate...my brother one year down the line....after seeing Buhari a big disaster...you think Edo would still vote this woman for calling them prostitutes. Continue saying PDP used the same pattern when Aisha Buhari called Edo women prostitute and Buhari still won....Now, that sentiment can't work again.

Even Buhari would have to show his certificate if he is going for second term in 2019.....because most Zombies like Oby Ezekwesilly's eye has opened. You do anyhow you see anyhow now

At the bold APC lost edo state.

NovusHomo:
This, perhaps, is the first sensible woman on Nairaland.

How do you know she is a woman ?
When does self-hate equals being "sensible" ?

Billyonaire:
Is it not better for him to register all these people to a bank account and send them the cash equivalent of these gifts if he truly wants to help instead of image laundering ?

How many people's bank account have you helped ?
This strategy prevents ghost constituents, mind you
a politician cannot survive without image laundering.

flamingREED:
Atheists pretending to be Christians.

Unrepentant sinners thinking they have a say in God's business:

False brethren.

2 John 1
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, HATH NOT GOD. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

1 John 4
5 THEY ARE OF THE WORLD: THEREFORE SPEAK THEY OF THE WORLD, AND THE WORLD HEARETH THEM.


1 John 2
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 THEY WENT OUT FROM US, BUT THEY WERE NOT OF US; FOR IF THEY HAD BEEN OF US, THEY WOULD NO DOUBT HAVE CONTINUED WITH US: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

2 Corinthians 11
26 In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, IN PERILS AMONG FALSE BRETHREN;

Galatians 2
4 And that because of FALSE BRETHREN UNAWARES BROUGHT IN, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

Galatians 5:19-21
Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, SinParties, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

It is easy dishing out theories of who a christian is,
but we all know that christians are not different from
non-christians in behaviour and conduct save the zeal
for seeking miracle.

GossipHeart:
What works for him will not work for you.
There is what is called destiny

I'm the laziest person on earth, but when i was a kid i knew i would be a millionaire, i eventually became a millionaire at the age of 22 without working for no one for a single day, that's destiny

If hard work guarantees success barrow pushers, brick layers, bus drivers would be billionaires because those guys grinds and works harder than everyone in this world

The truth is people do hit jackpot once in a while but the model won't work
for a majority of others. Even at that I haven't heard of anyone who did
nothing and money fell on their lap(aside inheritance, which someone
else already worked for).

At the bold, "hard work" doesn't always mean "muscle work".
I don't think we can meaningfully compare the efforts of an
olympic weightlifter with that of a sit at home coder.

horsepower24:
Exactly. The story is definitely fake. How can one withdraw N2,000,000 in 2days via ATM when the maximum per day is N150,000?

If he was a computer whiz, why is he a driver? That story doesn't add up. Big men are used to giving their helps their ATM pin and card to withdraw on their behalf because of laziness.

"Withdrawal" doesn't necessarily mean "cash withdrawal",
I have once purchased items worth 2 mil at POS terminals
within two hours with no issues.

From the story he bought many things, he probably used the
card to purchase those items directly instead of withdrawing
cash which is limited to 150,000.

seguno2:
And he doesn't spend to sustain his lifestyle.
Anyway, smart TAX officials should be investigating his personal income returns, don't you agree?

Tax is deducted from a lecturers salary at the source,
that is the standard practise for all corporate and government
institutions, so there is no tax fraud to investigate here except
you have evidence that he has other non-standard jobs.

Professors in federal universities earn an average of 400-500k per month, in addition
he is reported to also work in bells university,
do you think it is outrageous for a man who earns 4.5mil a year(excluding bells salary)
should be investigated for having millions in his account ?

Which ceasefire? Declared by who? These guys are over estimating their power.

They should continue to bomb...

For us, there is no ceasefire. More troops are being deployed and daily, criminal camps are being raided.

Do you know the number of criminals (avengers) apprehended in the last one week?

You haven't seen nothing yet. By the time NA is done, there won't be a single criminal in Niger Delta again.

Check these out https://www.nairaland.com/3285374/ijaw-leaders-promise-resolve-militancy

https://www.nairaland.com/3301172/nda-announces-ceasefire-sets-out

At the bold, I want to believe you didn't read what you typed.
There would always be criminals as long as there are humans
not even the threat of death can stop that.

That is because NDA have announced ceasefire.

dadabashua1:
and who told you people of the era of BC don't believe in God... see I will join you the day scientist give me the profs that God truly don't exist... something they have failed to answer till this day

Please change your post;
you are the one who claimed that god exist, so prove it.
The one who make a claim has to prove his claim not the doubter.

Those are few of the burden your hero left for Nigerians did he tell you about all listed up there and mind you Buhari have almost everything under 15Month..

If after everything i listed up there with proofs and GEJ never deny them and you still support GEJ and blame this Govt, Then i weep for this country.

I never knew you were this thoughtless, a zombie masquerading as a patriot.
Now get off my mention.
I hope you get delivered one of these days.

bashydemy:
Stop making fool of yourself, You can never expect change when you don't want to change yourself. The populace cannot change suddenly but you want Nigeria to change suddenly things don't work that way...

Why you don't want to change?

Is it difficult to stop lying to your Parents, Wife, Kids, Boss, Friends etc Is it that difficult?

Is it difficult for you to stop fornicating? Not really saying you fornicate just trying to pass the message.

Is it difficult for people to stop stealing?

Is it difficult for someone lying?

Most you make money illegally?

You just have to stop doing all you've been doing that are not right, It's a choice but a decision.

#Changebeginswithyou.

Your reasoning is shallow, why do we have the police when we
can tell robbers to stop stealing ?

Why do we have Road safety corps when we can simply tell drivers
to stop overloading/over-speeding , is it really difficult to do ?

The dummy in government who are clueless on how to move the country
forward decided to sell you a lie and you bought it without thinking,
which government in his right mind denies all responsibility and turn
around to blame the masses for not being a good citizen.

And your attempt to eviscerate a high morality is irrelevant here,
you probably smuggle, bribing police or other illegal activiteies for
all I know and nothing would make you stop it , afterall why should
you when you benefit from such ?

These clueless set of people take about 25% of our budget yearly only
for doing nothing and robbing it on our faces.

Well, I don't blame them it is Nigerians who believe suffering is okay
that are fuelling the incompetencies of the government.

Citizen A: Fuel price is high.
Government solution: Start using public transport, stop using generators.
Citizen A: But transport fare has increased and electricity is not regular.
Government: Tell drivers to sop hiking their fees, the change begins with
you people.

Citizen B: There is high level of insecurity.
Government: The robbers and cultist should stop robbing,
it is not our fault.

Smart citizens demand for good governance while the dummies keep saying
"it is not the government fault, it is the citizens".

naijadeyhia:
Young man only a morally bankrupt fellow would refute what i just posted which you responded to. You all praise America and other western nations and hustle hard to go there but do you even know their history? From the gang filled days to the nigga years to the years of apartheid to the emergence of Abraham Lincoln who in attempt to make a drastic change got killed ...same with martin luther king and same with John F kennedy. Their deaths drove their ideals and beliefs into the hearts of a lot of americans and laws where changed and attitudes were changed and today they have a nation that people are encouraged to build homes that do not wall themselves off from their neighbour.

Buharis gesture is sound and focused and is the right step in the right direction. A lot of the level of rot we have found ourselves in as a nation and all the negative press we receive outside Nigeria has mostly been caused by people like you and i. Why do you think that for some reason if a corrupt Nigerian stays in the united states for a few years he somehow learns how to behave and think right? Their system has been tailored towards a mental correction and if you refuse then you do the time.

We need to start somewhere as a nation and sustain it. I would not want to assume that you are morally bankrupt hence your kicking against this gesture from PMB. If you have the opportunity of running the affairs of Nigeria and do it better than PMB is currently doing then you can judge him but as for me i am totally satisfied with all he has been doing so far and i am even as easterner.

I STAND WITH PMB

You have totally screwed up american history with your false analogies.
At no point did an american president blame the citizens for the problems
in their countries, instead they take action instead of acting drama.

The problem of slavery and outlaws weren't solved because just
because some men died, far from that it was because the leaders
who are alive are smart enough to drive hard reforms and encourage
functional independent institutions that can stand the test of time.

I am not aware that any of those presidents blaming their predecessors
and the citizens for their country's woes(correct me if am wrong) but
they spent their energy fighting real battles to move forward.

Here we go again, the government concentrating on spiting their
opponent rather than doing the real work.
This is grossly irresponsible in a region that unstable.

diva90:
He's right! Change is not just for the government to create, the citizens have to be willing to make it happen as well. Why is America the way it is today? The citizens are extremely patriotic towards every and anything concerning their nation.
The government will play its role but the citizens need to support the government. You will never hear of people bombing oil pipes or policemen killing someone because they didn't give them bribe or government officials encouraging extremely corrupt practice in other developed countries but in nigeria this is practically a norm. Even the average Nigerian young child has a corrupt mindset. How can we move forward with all this? We need to work hard towards making nigeria a better place and like our dear president said. The change is not just in government hands but in our hands too

America is the wrong country to use as a model,
support for government only occurs when their is
an external enemy to deal with. Americans remain
one of the most unruly citizens for any government
to deal with as they instinctively resent control.

Even immediately after their war of independence
most of their militias refused to join the regular army
or fight in other territories.

Their revolution-era presidents faced impossible situations but
they were intelligent enough to focus on solving their
problems rather than blaming the corrupt police(yes
they were very corrupt then), blaming gunmen/outlaws for
causing trouble or wasting preciouses resources on painting
their predecessors bad.

They focused on building resilient institutions that could stand the
test of time and paid little attention to building a one-man strong
government.

Those leaders shun cynicism and used every help they can
get.

To me only a clueless leader blames his/her citizen for not behaving
perfectly when it is common knowledge that humans aren't remote-controlled
robots.

Change begins with Buhari!
It is foolhardy to expect the populace to
suddenly change their ways when the leaders
refuse to change.

A government that never takes responsibility
have no moral right preaching same to the masses.

MrPresident1:
A good marriage is the perfect master-servant relationship, there can not be two captains on a ship. The man is the head of the house, in Hausa he is Maigida meaning owner of the house, in Yoruba he is Iba-ile meaning father of the house, in Igbo he is Nnaanyi meaning our father.

The old word from husbondi from which husband is derived means Master of the house.

Any woman who is not ready to submit to the law of the man she wants to marry should not ever ever consider getting married. The master of the wife must love his wife to the extent of being able to put down his life for her. This is the model of marriage presented by Christ.

I like the fact that you are not pretending like the other "christians" on this thread.
However, true masters cannot and will never sacrifice their life for a servant, it is the
other way round.
Our society would be better if a man will be clear as you her about the type of wife
he wants instead of pretending to not care then turning to beast once married.

donnie:
So if you are not the boss in the organization where you work, you are a slave?

Yes if an organisation has a discriminatory rule that prevents you from being the boss no matter how
intelligent, qualified and skilled you are, then you are no different from a slave, a pawn to be used and
discarded at will.

MicroBox:
It's better you start learning because the end is near..
You watch game of thrones? high sparrow is an upright man with a more just religion in the series abi..
I will frankly tell you that he is the beast mainstream religions are talking about (Islam n Christianity)..
If you learn about them now the better for you, pass the awareness on to your generation.

That is ironic because if are "learned" as you claim,
you would know that not everything you are told is
the truth neither does the apparent appearance of a mirage
make it a large water.

Chubhie:
Our good ole African traditions and her women ain't complaining. You should take your atheists campaign to the grassroots and try your luck.

The divorce cases flying everywhere shows that women are complaining,
even pastor Chris couldn't convince his own wife to accept him as master
and she his obedient slave.
