In his comments, T.B. Joshua quoted Matthew 7:1, stating that Christians should ‘talk salvation, not condemnation’. “God hates sin, not sinners,” he insisted.
“When I say, 'Do not judge so that you will not be judged', I mean we should hate sin, not the sinner because sinners can change. If you have killed a sinner by judging him, there will be no opportunity for change. Sinners can be delivered. We should hate the act, not the people because our battle is not against flesh and blood but against the 'spirit beings' that cause all these acts.”
He then went further to clarify his stance: “The Bible is my standard. If my parents were one, I would not have been given birth to.”

Whatever you believe about him, this guy get wisdom. A very clever response to such a contentious issue!

If TB Joshua genuinely is going to relocate abroad, it will pose a big blow to Nigeria's tourism industry...

This is his school. He's been posting pics on FB and IG.

He wrote: "In my spiritual walk with God I have experienced both good and hard times. Who knows what would have happened if those temporary stops did not come at intervals? Consider how my education suffered epileptic fits; today I am in school, the next day I am out, especially for want of money. I don’t want to call it poverty because the man that is poor is not the one who has no money but one without a dream. Children of destiny can never be poor, though they may experience temporary lacks.

"Before I knew it, I had gone around six different colleges in less than one year. I enrolled for JAMB four times and on each occasion, it was either I forgot my acknowledgement card and other necessary documents or there was an accident on the way to examination venues. People who saw what was happening to me simply attributed my predicament to either sin or non-seriousness on my part. But those with the maturity that comes from faith, like my mother, saw it as mere stopping intervals/ natural stops in my spiritual walk with God.

"I began to look at whatever came my way with a mind whose focus was on God alone, I mean, the maturity that comes from faith in the finished works of our Lord Jesus Christ. I knew my case was already settled in Heaven. Here I am today in your midst; I can boast of what God is doing for us. Hallelujah! You are all witnesses.

"To those who have no fast legs, no sugar coated mouth and who are without human help - there is no excuse for failure...
"Are you rejected? Come to Jesus - He is your Companion! Are you abandoned? Come to Jesus - He is your Comforter! Are you without help? Come to Jesus – He is your Helper!" - TB Joshua

T.B Joshua shares his throwback pics & experience growing up - http://www.lindaikeji..com/2015/06/tb-joshua-shares-his-throwback-pics.html

The popular Lagos prophet shared some throwback photos of himself on his Facebook page and story about growing up in poverty and overcoming it. What he wrote below...

"I found myself in a family background that irritated me. My natural circumstance of birth was poverty. I come from a very humble background. Poverty loomed large in the family. The little education I had was through self effort. I know many people with a similar circumstance of birth who did otherwise. They allowed their circumstance to influence their will. Their dreams crashed on the rocks of disappointment, failure and setback.”

“Today, many people blame their situation on family background. Some would say, “I am poor because everyone in my family is poor.” If you make excuses for being poor, your poverty cannot be excused. Remember, you are responsible for what you give your attention to; so it is unnecessary to blame your situation on anyone. Today, it is common for people to blame their failure on their family background, whereas they attribute their success to their personal effort. If you attribute your success to your personal effort, you should also accept the blame for your failure. When we make excuses for our wrongdoing, such misdeeds would not be excused.

“I recognised early enough that victory obtained through Christ was a time past victory. I mean, it is victory assured. Rather than despair and blame my situation on family background, I began to be proud of my situation in order to feel Christ’s victory over me. I became content with my situation, knowing that my situation is redeemable through Christ and that the redemption was a time-past one. I mean, redemption assured. Then I began to take God at His Word in order to have His way. “Nobody is too good or too bad to qualify for His grace. Remember, it was possible for me to sit somewhere and begin to make excuses for my situation. I never did. Whatever I am today is a product of that conviction that victory through Christ is victory indeed. The rest is history!” - TB Joshua

Perhaps government should try and find this guy - he will probably be able to help catch many more fraudsters...

A Nigerian internet fraudster known as the ‘king of dating’ for his sophisticated tactics of online manipulation has given an eye-opening confession at a Lagos-based church.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgqs_X6L8zg

Samuel Johnson, an Edo State indigene, explained that his journey into advanced internet scamming began in The University of Port Harcourt after he joined the ‘’ cult.

“I followed them into a very thick forest during the night of initiation,” the young man narrated. He was just 19 years old at the time. “We reached a place where there was a candle and a coffin encircled by 50 young men. They tortured us with canes until we started bleeding. They then cut my tongue on a razor blade and gave me something to drink.”

The quiet, intelligent student changed drastically from that day onward. “It was like I had two people living inside me,” he recalled. “I became very aggressive. I had this strength to want to steal and started stealing from people. I also started smoking and drinking excessively. Anytime I drank, it’s like I became stronger.”

A cult friend into online fraud, popularly known as 419, soon egged him into joining. However, for Samuel, there was a strange, spiritual element to his deceptive tricks. “There was a spirit inside me that kept teaching me. I was not just any fraudster; I learned it from meditating on it. It was inbuilt. Even if I walked into a room and money was kept there, I would know where to find it.”

Starting by procuring foreign sim-cards from UK and USA so as to deceive potential victims, Samuel specifically targeted wealthy foreign ladies in North America. “I had pictures and pre-recorded videos of a white man. There is software which will replay these videos on Skype. So, if I am Skyping with you, you will not see my present self – you would see this video on a webcam. I had about 20 different videos with the same white man and I had created stories behind each clip. When I showed my victims, they all believed it was real.”

Johnson explained Facebook was the easiest way to attract prospective ‘customers’ and he had fixed a fake profile using the same pictures in the doctored videos he owned. “I would tell them I was an engineer who worked and lived in London, that I am rich and wealthy. I wouldn’t tell them I’m not rich; it was the money I used to drag them towards me.”

Johnson explained how he used his boast of huge wealth to lull victims into a false sense of security.“Sometimes I would ask them to help me look for a property agent to buy a house. I would tell them I am ready to pay for the house as soon as I come. I would send them a fake e-ticket and tell them I would be arriving in two weeks. I even had a pre-recorded video of a 12 year old girl who I pretended was my daughter. I had this assistant who would help me in speaking like a small girl. There is no way you would see that video on Skype and not believe it is real. They buy into it immediately. That was how I was able to draw them to get money from them.”

To gain added confidence, Samuel would ensure an emotional attachment was fostered. “You make it look real. I would send them gifts – rings, champagne, credit cards to shop. We would have ‘phone intimacy’ to draw their attention even more – that is how they believed. Sometimes, I could be talking to 10 different women simultaneously and I never forgot their names.”

Once such naïve trust was established, extorting money was relatively easy, the former fraudster explained. “I would tell them to contact my bank. Once they give me their details, I would make a fake wire transfer. They would see the money moving into their account. When it stops, I would tell them that they have to contact the bank and pay the ‘cost of transfer’.”

The expert duper would even go to the extent of getting personal bank details of his foreign victims, and then call their bank pretending to be an owner of the account, change information and request for a huge loan.

Money flowed freely. “I could make $30,000, $80,000 – even $250,000 on a single victim. I was living in very luxurious and expensive hotels. I moved to Omole Phase One, Ikeja and lived in an apartment for which I paid N1.5m every year. I bought all my properties in one day. I was lavishing it. I would buy Hennessy every day. I had to drink. The thing is – I needed to alcohol in order for me to perform,” he recounted.

Johnson explained that his preferred victims were those who were high-ranking, intelligent professionals.“We preferred people who were educated – people that would say, ‘It is not possible for me to be scammed’. I attacked lawyers through Yellow Pages in USA. I would tell the lawyer that someone owes me money from Michigan and the person is living in Alaska. The person the lawyer would contact in Alaska would be me also. Once he talked to this ‘person’, I would say, ‘I really owe him money and I want to pay back $300,000’. I would send the lawyer a cheque and once I sent it, they would not find out from the bank if the cheque was real; they would just deposit it.”

Johnson gained such a reputation for his scamming tricks that he began teaching others, even foreigners.“I had many boys that I was training. They called me the ‘king of dating’ because I always got what I wanted. Sometimes I would be invited to Benin or Lagos to teach fraud. I even trained grown men who were 40 to 45 years old. Some were not even black or Nigerian; some where white. They called themselves diplomats but carried fake money.”

With the words, ‘Money; power; respect’ tattooed on Samuels’ arm, it served as a constant reminder of his mission. “That was the law I lived under,” he explained. “Sometimes, if I had emotions towards the people I was defrauding, this tattoo would remind me of why I entered this business in the first place. I would say there was no mercy.”

Samuel said he had lost count of the people he had deceptively stolen money from online. “I derived pleasure in doing it. It made me feel strong – that I could make people do what I wanted them to do. I did not do this alone. I had bankers as friends who helped me out. In fact, the money I tipped them with would be more than their salary for the whole year.”

However, despite the flamboyance and lavish lifestyle, Samuel said his life was bereft of joy and the money was merely fleeting. “Whenever I got this money, it was like chaff before the wind – it would blow away. I never enjoyed it for one day. I would always fight and beat any girl I was dating. There was such anger, like there was someone living inside me. My life was upside down. I would always fear that I would be involved in an accident. If I was crossing the road, even if there was no car coming, I would run. I was living in isolation. I never came out during the day. Everything was troubling me. I never had peace. My heart was beating fast. I behaved like someone was chasing me whereas no one was chasing me.”

When a close friend and fellow fraudster was shot dead point-blank at the tender age of 23, Samuel was rudely jolted back to reality. His life was a mess. His dreams were dominated by violent attacks and sexual encounters. He needed help. When an evangelist came knocking at his door, Samuel knew it was the voice of God speaking – he needed Divine intervention to start afresh.

That night, Samuel had an unusual dream. A pastor he had only seen on a few occasions on television came with a message. “I saw TB Joshua in my dream. He told me to fast for three days,” he stated. Complying with the instruction in the Heavenly visitation, Samuel began nursing the desire to visit Joshua’s church in Lagos, The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN).

It was on the ‘prayer line’ at The SCOAN that Samuel experienced what he termed ‘deliverance’. “When the man of God touched me, I immediately saw myself facing a judge. I felt something in between my chest starting to pop out. I then felt like something left me and before I knew it, I saw myself on the floor.”

After the prayer, Samuel testified that he has stopped smoking, drinking and has comipletely stopped his fraudulent activities. His advice is short but concise. “The only way you can achieve greatness is when you have Christ in your heart. Always watch and pray. Don’t just click on any link. Don’t just share your information with anyone. If they send you an email, saying they need your information to change something – don’t listen to them. Depend only on God.”

Happy birthday, sir!

Sir, I thank you for teaching me how to worship God in Spirit and in truth. Your life and love is an incredible inspiration to me as a young man.

As you always say, sir - "Better is not good enough; the best is always yet to come!"

Today, Friday 12th June 2015, TB Joshua turns 52! Please SHARE your birthday message/ prayer/ encouragement with him below:

Unfortunately, it appears almost all the 'men of God' of today have chosen to trade their calling with political favours and associations. Why is it that much of the headlines from the church today surrounds political controversies? That's one of the reasons I love and respect people like Prophet TB Joshua - he has proven over time that he is not a material pastor out for political aims or gain.

Oritsejafor and his like should take note - time will tell...

“Love has a language that transcends all languages, all barriers and all distance. No wonder we are here today sharing the good news of the Gospel, irrespective of differences in language, tribe and race.” - TB Joshua at the Mexico Crusade

I think that's the greatest draw with this man - love. He practices what he preaches.

This is where people like TB Joshua stand out from the likes of Adeboye - his charitable endeavours make a tangible difference in the people's lives, not just a gift and pic for the sake of publicity to a country who already has more than enough.

A prophet is without honour in his own country. Why is it that other countries recognise the value of TB Joshua while Nigeria continues to neglect and call him names? These pics are supposed to be on the front page of every Nigerian newspaper - which other Nigerian national could gather such a crowd in a foreign country and spread a positive message about Nigeria's image in the international community? However, TB Joshua has already left Mexico and most people in Naija don't even know something happened. What a shame!

"No matter how long a lie is sustained, the TRUTH will someday prevail." - TB Joshua

SOURCE: http://www.punchng.com/news/synagogue-witness-tenders-papers-on-terror-attack-theory/

The 37-year-old weapon researcher, Biedomo Iguniewei, who suggested high infrasonic radiation attack as the cause of the Synagogue Church for All Nations’ building collapse last year, has submitted academic papers to back his claims.

A six-storey guest house within the premises of SCOAN in Lagos had, on September 12, 2014, collapsed, killing no fewer than 116 persons.

Iguniewei, who described himself as an independent consultant with specific interest in explosives and weapon research, had testified in December last year before the Lagos coroner probing the cause of death of the 116 persons who perished in the collapsed building.

The witness, who claimed to be a post-graduate student of Explosives and Material Science at the Nigerian Defence Academy, had suggested that the aircraft that reportedly hovered above the church shortly before the building came down could have fired infrasonic radiations at the building.

He told the coroner, Magistrate O.A. Komolafe, that he was in a position to reach such a conclusion based on his six-year experience with the Nigerian Defence Academy.

According to Iguniewei, an infrasound is a type of sound measuring below 20Hz, which is below what the normal human ear could detect.

He said, “The striking thing about infrasound is that you cannot hear it and you cannot see it but it causes remarkable vibrations when used as a weapon.

“Those of us who work with the security know that weapons are produced and they are always looking for where to test them.

“I am of the opinion that what happened that day, especially with the strange plane-like objects seen in the video, was that an infrasonic radiation was fired at the building; and if you observe, you will discover that it took about 30 minutes for the building to come down.”

He added, “It is important for this court to be aware of this option but why it could have been used here is another matter entirely.

“But since I have been pondering why a building would collapse the way this one did, this is the most plausible explanation for me.”

The witness said it had become important to consider the option of infrasonic radiation, especially with the repeated movement of the aircraft, which was said to have repeatedly hovered over the collapsed building.

“That plane-like object flew close to the building, and that is all that is needed for the infrasonic radiation to reach the building. As far as I am concerned, the repeated hovering of the plane-like object is to ensure that the building received enough dose of the radiation sufficient to bring it down.

“Engineers generally believe that a structure would fail due to bad foundation and bad materials but if you go there now the foundation pillars are still very intact. My position is that the building weakened from the top,” Iguniewei insisted.

When asked what would be seen as the evidence in the aftermath of an infrasonic attack on a building, the witness said there would be no material evidence because the radiation neither generates heat nor results in burning or charring.

He had said, “The bomb expert who is looking for chemical residue will not see anything like a by-product and of course there is no charring because all that the radiation does is to cause a vibration of the atoms from their position resulting in the emission of electrons.”

Komolafe had then asked Iguniewei, who claimed to have adopted the Synagogue incident as his academic project, to furnish the court with papers.

Further hearing has been adjourned till Wednesday April 29, 2015.

An explosives expert and researcher, Mr. Biedomo Paul Iguniwei has tendered a research paper requested by the coroner before the Lagos court investigating the cause of the collapsed building at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) last year.

In the research paper, which was equally made available to newsmen, Mr. Iguniwei still insists that the building collapse was caused by an infrasonic weapon fired at the church by the aircraft that hovered over the building several times.

Arguing that the position of the Lagos State Government which tends to support structural defect as cause of the collapse is baseless, he observed that scientific evidence coupled with the CCTV footage of the collapse suggest the building collapsed due to high energy infrasound absorption.

“The Lagos State Government has been pushing the reason for the collapse as foundational, structural defects or poor construction standards used by the church engineers. However, having looked at all the reasons adduced, personally visited the scene of the collapse and analyzed the video footage of the preceding moments before the collapse of the structure, it was deduced that the collapse resulted from high energy infrasound absorption by the building leading to a high energy resonance of the constituent atoms of the building”.

Mr. Iguniwei further supported the infrasonic weapon theory thus: “All other options being put forward were eliminated scientifically, creating a mystery surrounding the collapse of the building. The foundation failure option cannot hold scientifically because upon inspection of the foundation pads of the building, it was observed that the foundation pads are still intact with no stress or cracks on the steel and concrete pillars protruding from the earth. Additionally, the CCTV footage showed a collapse that is not consistent with other known buildings that have collapsed as a result of structural failure.”

Based on the aforementioned factors, Mr. Iguniwei concluded thus: “As it is, it can be concluded scientifically that there were no explosives in the building when it collapsed upon the post-blast analysis done. It can also be true to safely say the building didn’t come down as a result of foundational or structural failure. Thus, the only reasonable explanation for the cause of collapse is the use of an infrasonic weapon on the building”.

Meanwhile, the BCPG witness, Engineer Oreoluwa Fadayomi has admitted there was an error in his report. The submission arose from the revelation that the report he based his findings upon via email were not actually genuine documents as submitted by the church.

Having adopted the paper by Iguniwei, the coroner adjourned proceedings to Wednesday, April 29, 2015.

Anointing Water is NOT for sale and the website mentioned above is NOT from The SCOAN. They warn people fo fraudsters on practically a daily basis.

See the latest warning yesterday - https://www.facebook.com/tbjministries/posts/882389691881808

"Once again, beware of any imposters claiming to be Prophet T.B. Joshua or claiming to represent The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations, demanding for money in the name of either of the above in the promise of providing Morning Water or other materials from the ministry. The Morning Water and Anointing Sticker are not for sale and are not being posted out from The SCOAN HQ in Lagos. Healing, salvation and all of God’s blessings are free gifts of God. Jesus Christ paid for our perfect and complete healing when He died on the cross. Watch and pray, lest you fall into temptation (Matthew 26:40)."

The reason this message sinks in is that TB Joshua practices what he preaches. We are tired of empty promises and idle words by the political elite...

The best thing about this message is that the messenger doesn't just talk the talk but walks the walk...

"The LORD is not so much interested in how many times you go to church, pray and fast a day, how much Christian service you render, the amount of tithes and offerings you pay, the Christian titles and names you bear - as the number of people's lives you have affected. Many people are suffering out there; they want to change but do not just know how to go about it. How many lives are you capable of CHANGING? How many have you CHANGED? This is what matters to HIM." - TB Joshua #LetLoveLead

Are you saying it on LIVE television with an audience in the brackets of millions?

3, the man never said anything specific as to who would win or any specific events or outcome of 5he election, meanwhile, I'm no prophet but I'm you chech my time line you would see where I predicted the exact outcome of the election, had it been this man who predicted what I predicted by now he would have gone to CNN.

“God does not allow a man of God like me who is a man of people to belong to any party. He should belong to all parties – equal love, equal favour, equal rights. If not, the Lord cannot continue to support such a man.”
