Christianity EtcRe: Celebrating An Icon - Happy Birthday To Pastor Chris Oyakhilome by nora544: 3:56pm On Dec 07, 2014
mbaemeka:
Happy birthday to God's Field Marshal. I could get teary-eyed talking about you and how you made me love God and his word. I remember stumbling into a CEC by chance and seeing the members stand up as you walked in to deliver the word. I remember the puzzled look of disgust that masked my face. That look soon phased out the more I listened. You have a unique way of sharing the word. Sometimes the anointing would be so strong that the hairs at the back of my head would be at attention. Other times my heart would burn with fire and an unquenching desire to change my world. The calling on you is not in doubt to anyone that is of the spirit. I remember listening to that message: the one very simple yet powerful, the one worth-hearing, and saying to myself "I know I would never be the same again". And true to it, I changed and am still changing into that very image that Christ wants me to be.

If I was to write about all the things I have gained from being mentored by you, I suppose all the books in the world would not be enough. So let me use this little corner of this thread, to join millions around the world to celebrate you.

Happy birthday sir!
where are the millions people who follow this God of men!

Dear Nora, I think you should always try to keep yourself week abreast with information before venting out on Nairaland. I seriously didn't want to say anything today even after I saw the Misheal guy seriously displaying uncalled anger. Anyway, back toy reason for commenting.
Left to Pasyor Chris, he wouldn't mind even though his bday isn't celebrated and most times he is taken by surprise at the things that happens at the celebration. His members love him so much and appreciates the way he has affected their lives with the word of God that they decide to celebrate him. I don't see how that is a bad thing.
Speaking of him telling his members to donate for the less privilege, there is an arm of the ministry called "The inner city mission". And the aim of the arm is to reach out to children in inner places of town, slumps, and the likes where they are suffering and aren't even noticed. The lives of these kids and their parents are Changed. There is even a school for them where they attend for free.
Part of the agenda for this bday apart from the inner city mission's normal practice is to reach the less privilege as it has always been done every other year. If you had a loveworld TV station, you would see this gestures.
This is little compared to what the Reach out Nigeria Project does for communities. Apart from distributing rhapsodies, there are many other community projects and skill squishy ion trainings done to commemorate our independence in Nigeria.
Everything has its time. Christ Embassy members feel their pastors should be celebrated and so it is!
Il stop here. Happy Sunday.

PoliticsRe: Russia Disowns Arms-laden Cargo Plane Impounded In Kano by nora544: 3:20pm On Dec 07, 2014
The Russian government has denied that the aircraft, filled with military hardware, arrested in Nigeria Saturday has any link with Russia.
The Eastern European country said through its embassy in Nigeria that the plane wasn’t Russian and had no link with Russia.
“According to the information of the Embassy, the detained in Kano plane, allegedly carrying military hardware on board, is not Russian,” the Russia Embassy in Nigeria, tweeted via its handle @RusEmbNigeria late Saturday.
I remember what the russian say about the plane accident in the ukraine that is was not possible and that it was the ukraine who make this but later it comes out the the rebell made this.

so please do not belief all what russian goverment or embassy will say.

Well, the Russian embassy just denied it as well.

So, this looks like a false flag. Perhaps the Ukrainians and the big brother are behind this. Antonov is a Ukrainian company, but what is the Russian flag and the 224 thing doing there?

And the biggest Russian airline in Russia that handles cargo, Aeroflot, doesn't have Antonov in its inventory.
Volga-Dnepr 10,
Polet Airlines 6,

are two airlines who have this planes and they flky under the flag of russia, you can rent this planes.

Nigerians pentecost christians speake that other christian religion have idols but he is a man mad God not more, how can a real christian pastor celebrate his birthday like he is a music superstar when so many children in an country in west africa has nothing to eat, whe he cannot tell his followers that they should donate that children have food also in nigeria there are many children who have nothing to eat, and he is celebrating his birthday, where he lose the feelings what it means to be a real christian.

Look at the 224 insignia near the Russian flag, at the tail of the plane. That is a unit of the Russian Air Force that deals with cargo planes.

I never knew Russia still has Soviet era An-124 cos Antonov is Ukrainian. Thought it was strictly Ilyushin, and Tupolev to an extent. But I checked earlier this morning, and it still has a few. A few of those An-124 were converted to the massive and strategic An-225.
I have a photo from a real russian antonov look at the photo from the first page and the photo from me there is a little bit differnce of the size of the sign under the flag from russia.

Why in turky they didnot know the Female circümcised it is an islam country and in turky no woman will get it.

This female circümcised comes from egypt for the woman and from the jewish for man.

Female circümcised comes from the egypt pharaos and we have about 4 different ones.

In kenya is a hospital who help woman after childbird because many have big problems.

FGM may complicate pregnancy and place women at higher risk for obstetrical problems, which are more common with the more extensive FGM procedures. ] In women with Type III who have developed vesicovaginal or rectovaginal fistulae (holes that allow urine or faeces to seep into the vagina), it is difficult to obtain clear urine samples as part of prenatal care, making the diagnosis of conditions such as pre-eclampsia harder. Cervical evaluation during labour may be impeded and labour prolonged. Third-degree laceration, anal-sphincter damage and emergency caesarean section are more common in infibulated women. Neonatal mortality is increased. The WHO estimated in 2006 that an additional 10–20 babies die per 1,000 deliveries as a result of FGM. The estimate was based on a study conducted on 28,393 women attending delivery wards at 28 obstetric centres in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Senegal and Sudan. In those settings all types of FGM were found to pose an increased risk of death to the baby: 15 percent higher for Type I, 32 percent for Type II and 55 percent for Type III.

Other countries are using their national savings to raise the standard of living of their citizens by spending it on education, infrastructural improvement and investments in business and manufacturing plants.
But in Nigeria, a large part of our national savings in the form of tithes and offerings is held capitive by religious leaders who would rather splurge it in the acquisition of private jets, building of several luxury mansions and the construction of ever larger auditorium to seat more people in other to get more money.
A country where a large percentage of its citizens are daft enough to build churches and mosques before factories will always remain poor.
They cannot make good business decision if they are thought to believe that giving money to their pastor is an investment that will yeild a hundred fold increase from God.

opeyemiolu:
I was at a particular church camp ground where a branch of a bank am auditing is situated. I was properly dressed in a pant trouser and office top. I didnot go with my car so I had to join public transport and subsequently, Okada. I got to the gate to go in only to be told by the security personnel that I can't go in because I am wearing a trouser. I was surprised because I have never heard of such before in my life. I told them, I am coming from the office and going for an official assignment in a bank branch within the camp and I was not inform of any such dress code previously. They said the only solution is for me to go back and change to a skirt, wrapper or dress. Alternatively I could call someone from the office am going to bring a car to come and pick me at the gate. I opted for the second option.

I am a size 16 and I feel better cover up in a trouser. Wearing a dress or skirt, I appear more scandalous. Bottomline, I was told if it was during a programme at the camp, that nobody will stop me. I was already tired of religion and this incident just put end to any little faith I have. Hypocrisy everywhere.
Please write the name of the church because that is not okay and nigerian pastors make what they want and I live here in europa and I hear never that it is not allowed to wear trousers to church, we wear trousers when it is could or warm because it is more comfortable.

christians from nigeria wake up leave this fake man of god. because this is not christian.

My former church gave us wallets,beautiful pens and notebooks,tote bags,books etc
Every year was a new gift
Every woman member or not,in church that day got one
That is how to show appreciation
They will provide good dinners for thanksgiving,Easter and sometime in the summer
They will do fun stuff,get floats and kids will jump and musicians will be playing
In place of Halloween we had fall festivals with free hamburgers and hotdogs and desserts and lots of candy and games
That is how to show people they matter
Not beating them upside the head with one project or another
In almost 10 years I was there not a single preaching on tithing as a topic,I never heard a single one
The pastor always thanked the congregation for their faithfulness in giving and in tithes and offerings and that was the extent of it
We had missionaries all over the world and once a year there was a missions Sunday and some of them came home and we saw videos and heard testimonies of the work they do and saw where our money was going.
Our pastor drove a TOyota Camry and was on a fixed income even though he founded the church over 30 years ago
He was just like everyone else
He would stay around and shake hands after church and chat with the congregation
He didn't have servants carrying his Bible and bodyguards heralding his arrival
He was a regular guy with a clear vision of what Church is about
I know it from my church here in europa that the church make something for their followers like you write it but not so much.
Christianity EtcRe: A Greater Evil Than The Tithe Scam ! by nora544: 5:51pm On Dec 02, 2014
frosbel:
Pastors are planning a major robbery in the churches this January.

There are certain months of the year referred to as the “ember” months. These comprise those months which, in the English language, end with “ember.” They are September, October, November and December. You will notice already that, strictly-speaking, October does not fit the bill; otherwise it would have been called “Octoember.” But never mind, it is still included in the “ember” months.

One thing however is without controversy about these last four months of the year. In those months, there is a definite change of emphasis in the messages preached by many pastors.


Thieves and robbers

In the “ember” months, pastors start to preach about “first-fruits,” laying down the foundation for a major robbery routinely planned for the month of January. In our selective use of Old Testament scriptures, we start to remind church-members that the first-fruits of every harvest must be given to us.

Never mind that in the New Testament, the harvest is now the harvest of souls and believers themselves are the first-fruits. Never mind that even in the Old Testament, God was only interested in agricultural products. Today, all that pastors are interested in now is money, money, money; for “money answers all things.”

If we teach this “godliness” as effectively as we should, we can make all the money we need for the year between February and March. The first-fruits scam requires all church-goers to hand over to us, their pastors, not just a tenth, but their entire January salaries. It used to be the case that the first-fruits were defined as a Christian’s first salary after leaving school and securing gainful employment. But some of us soon realised that this only gives us the right to a man’s entire salary once in a lifetime. So we have become more ingenious in coming up with new, more financially lucrative, biblical revelations. Many pastors now insist that since the January salary is the first salary in the year, legally it falls under the definition of first-fruits.

Just do the math. Imagine a situation where the pastor gets the January salary not only from twelve members of his congregation, but from all of them. Depending on the size of his church, he can get in one bonanza enough money to last him a lifetime. Is it any wonder, therefore, that pastors are very zealous in preaching about first-fruits in the “ember” months?

Many even refuse to be limited to their churches. Turn onto Christian television such as the Trinity Broadcasting Network in the “ember” months, and you are likely to find Paula White and Steve Munsey extolling the blessings of giving first-fruits. Of course, the first-fruits must be sent to them and to no one else.


Sour grapes

Kingsley Akenzua told me a story pregnant with meaning. In one of Nigeria’s big churches with a large branch-network, the pastors were making a killing collecting first-fruits. But one of them used the money to put up a church building. This went a long way to endear him to his congregants. Members of the other parishes started comparing him favourably to the other pastors who had nothing to show for the first-fruits they collected. Those pastors became concerned that the pastor who put up the building would soon bring the entire first-fruits scam into disrepute. So they decided to take “appropriate” action.

They reported the “erring” pastor to the General Overseer of the church. His transgression was that he put up an entire church building single-handedly. So doing, they claimed, he was being greedy. He was determined to monopolise the spiritual blessings that come from putting up the building. He prevented others from getting blessed by not taking contributions from them. The General Overseer wondered where he got the money to erect the entire building by himself. So they told him the money came from the first-fruits he collected from his church-members.


Comeuppance

The General Overseer became even more curious. Just how much first-fruits were the pastors under him collecting? He decided to investigate. When he did, he was astonished at the sums involved. It was unthinkable that such lucrative business was taking place in his church without due consideration for his position. The General Overseer fired a memo to all the parishes under him: henceforth, all first-fruits collected must be forwarded intact to headquarters.

However, his memo did not exactly have the desired effect. Thereafter, the pastors in that particular church noticeably lost interest in preaching about first-fruits in the “ember” months.
