I don't use to care about Nigerian politics before now, but the suspense in the APC camp is so interesting I see myself reading any update about their plans.

I have a perfect solution to offer on the current brouhaha in APC camp. But my Grandpa once told me not to correct my enemy when he's making a mistake.

If you truly care about Nigeria, you shouldn't offer advice or give critical analysis on APC's problems. Just sit back and laugh. You never can tell... Buhari might be on Nairaland

Guy una too funny for this nairaland

I just realized that delegates are our major problem in this country. They will collect their own share, and they will now present to us bad candidates, and we the electorates will now have to choose between the devil and the deep blue sea.

Word, we have t6 make adjustments to this delegates stuff, maybe a way of making them more accontable, i dunno what exactly but this delegate system needs change

After women, fear delegates!!

Ok

Never a dull moment on Nairaland.

Dtruthspeaker:
Do you real eyes that you are getting more stupider by the day?

Even the Bible did say that the world was made created in and with knowledge.

And science means "To know".

Hence, scientists are only learning TO KNOW what God has already done and moved away!

Science is always behind playing catch up.

Word!! Science is always playing catch up!!

Ok can you enlighten me what Muslims consider as blasphemy? Waiting to hearing from you.

Blasphemy is any speech that insults or shows irreverence for a religious being, Since muslims consider muhammed as the true messanger of God, any talk that denigrates the "prophetness" of muhammed or insults him is regarded as blasphemy

OBALOLA55:
JESUS IS NOTHING BUT A PROPHET AND MESSENGER OF GOD, STOP MISLEADING PEOPLE MR MAN

If Jesus is only a prophet/messanger then why did God command even the angels to worship him? Heb 1: 6-8 why did he accept worship from his disciples after he walked on water?? Why did even prophets and angels refused to allow/accept worship from men but Jesus did Rev 22: 9, Acts 10:25&26 from genesis to revelation only God is authorized receives worship Rev 22:9, so if Jesus recieved worship then he is God!!

UtuokeAlcoholic:
I have never seen re.tarded people in existence except Christians. Since you believe a mortal human being is a God, so everyone must have the same belief as you otherwise it is blasphemy. This means there is no more freedom of religion in this country again if a citizen didn't share your beliefs.

What a dumb illiterate is the pastor.

Before u rush and quote me claiming "woke", read the op's post carefully so that u'll understand the context of my post, i never said anyone who doesnt beleif the same thing i beleive is blaspheming, i was only saying that if we judge by the same standard, what muslims consider as "blasphemy" against their prophet mohammed, if applied to christianity, is equally blasphemy!! I have NO interest in forcing anyone to beleive what i beleive or in executing anyone who insults or disagrees with my beleifs.

Mickykarim what wrong did the pastor say, where did he encourage anyone to fight anyone who blasphemes Jesus He was trying to make the point that muslims also blasphemes Jesus, just like they accuse christians of blaspheming mohammed, nevertheless we dont fight them for that!! How does that amount to giving christians a bad name

Friend22:
Whether tube IBO or not.

Don't even dare insult the prophet in the north except you ate tired of your life.
There are some irate youths that will ignite your ass if you do.

Stop shifting goal post he asked why are you fighting for a God dat is supposed to fight for you if you beleif that your prophet mohammed is true then God is supposed to fight for him, why do you guys fight for muhammed, is he not potent enough to fight for himself

OP i dont think its cause the muslims in the south know any better... I think its because they know that they are not in their land, that consciousness that the southerners are the ones who own the land and not they is what restrains them

Prozico22:
all does bullshit you people are saying who be adam or eve fvck the story GOD exit yes but the bible is a story written by one white man smoker

You asked for answers i gave u answers, rather than asking logical questions you settle your curiosity you conclude dat d bible is fake, sha at least you still beleive in God

Prozico22 care4you 1) God gave Moses a vision of what happened at creation 2) People are born with imperfections due to a result of d sin dat entered d world by adam, Sin corrupts and brings decay, the effect of adams sin touched everything including the cells in d human body, since we also inherited d nature of adam at birth hence we CAN also he affected by the imperfections of that nature, it wasnt like that before adam sinned 3) To have intimacy with him, man was created to satisfy Gods desire to have intimacy and friendship with a creature of will - Man 4) The sin no stop because although Jesus died for the whole world, only those who accept him as their saviour can live above sin, so its a matter of choice 5) God doesnt discriminate between rich and poor

Righthussle:
See your mouth like " whether you give offerings or tithe to church or not, God will still fund his work!!". Shey na you fund God work when him create the universe? So only God fund the work wey bring the universe into existence but him need us to fund church work abi? Ole.

The way God funds his work is to touch the hearts of people to give WILLINGLY to his work,"the heart of a king is in the hand of the lord", God is not interested in using anybody who still needs to be forced or sweettalked in order to give offering and tithes to fund his work, so if you are not willing to give freely God doesnt need you!!

Kobojunkie now i get it. The issue is dat your are using God as a title and God as the father interchangeably,since God the father was the only revealed personality of the trinity in the OT, The title "God" (a supreme being who created the world and who is to be worshiped) was also used as God the father. So what u are to say is Jesus is God(title) but God the father(Jehovah) is not Jesus. I hope it now makes sense, lol.

Ok so many people don't know this but the desciples actually converted people to Judaism.
Acts 13:43–52

ESV

43 And after the meeting of the synagogue broke up, many Jews and cdevout dconverts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who, as they spoke with them, urged them eto continue in fthe grace of God.

44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord

So how come Christians don't leave according to the laws of Judaism? Sabbath on Saturday instead of Sunday? Eating of snakes, fish without scale(e.g catfish)pork etc? Is christianity a hybrid of Judaism or just a fslse.Why do Christians believe in the trinity why Judaism clearly states there is only one God.

That the whole city came to listen to paul on Sat doesnt mean they were mandated to worship on Sat or To obey jewish rites after they were converted see Gal 2:11-14, Sat was just d conveniet day for paul to preach because that was d designated day of worship at dat time

Kobojunkie did you say Jesus doesnt have the fullness of God?? Col 2:9 "For in christ all the fullness of the diety lives in bodily form" Col 1:19 "For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him" these passages clearly show that Jesus possesses the fullness of the attributes and qualities of God that makes God, God!! That he didnt express some of those qualities doesnt mean he doesnt posses them!!

Dear nairalanders, a branch Pastor in one of these popular church came to woe me into his church (a new branch) located in my street. I accepted to join him with my family and friends with just these few conditions.


1. that 99% of all the tithes, offering, seed faith, vows, pledges etc should be used for charity, humanitarian and community services.

2. that if the condition above cannot be met, then we should use the church space for a lucrative business to achieve our aim of 'human development'

3. that if the above conditions (1 and 2) cannot be met, then he should shut down the place for serious business minded people to use.

brethren the pastor left with total disappointment.

See Ehnn whether you give offerings or tithe to church or not, God will still fund his work!! Churches will always have needs and God know how to meet them, the problem is that many "pastors" are not grounded in this truth hence the tendency to fear over ur refusal to give!!

[quote author=hopexter post=11263044][/quote]Education: Yes convenant uni is a private uni but it has been consistently ranked among top unis in africa by foreign uni ranking sites, convenant uni has also published high ranking scientific papers in international science jornals, the impact is that he has uped the standard of education in nigeria. In infastructure, if you dont know winners chapel has single handedly built many roads around their churches so In human capital development Oyedepo has raise and mentored many succesful people in many other areas of life, so what

CAPSLOCKED:
ASIDES FEEDING HIS GULLIBLE FOLLOWERS TOP BULLSHĮT STORIES OF FEAR AND SUPERSTITION AND COLLECTING THEIR MONEY TO ENRICH HIMSELF AND SOMETIMES BUILD SMALL OUTDATED FACILITIES AND DO GIVEAWAYS TO A BUNCH OF STARVING MEMBERS OF THE CONGREGATION, WHAT EXACTLY IS THIS MAN KNOWN FOR AND ASSOCIATED WITH?

Lol, small outdated facilities the facilities that your govt has been building with outrageous amounts are they up to the standard of the ones Oyedepo builds

Dtruthspeaker:
You would say it is a mixed multitude because you do not know that birds of the same feather, flock together. Evil doing people can not bear the presence of righteous people and righteous people can not bear the presence of evil lovers. And we know ourselves on sight.

Therefore, they can never be gathered in the same place.

Birds of the same feather always flock together.

That was my point.

In the parable of the wheat and the tares, Jesus said that a man planted wheat and enemhes also planted tares and the master didnt remove the tares but allowed all to grow together, signifying that both good and bad are present in the church. Also in the days of Jesus the pharisees were corrupt and vile, did Jesus stop going to the temple? No!! Instead he even interacted with them and stood up for the right thing, so??

MrBrownJay1:
it isnt necessary, but as it is the only place where these fraudsters/charalatans in robe can probably defraud you of your money (via tithe), they make it mandatory that you go every sunday, so they can part you with your money!

If you are very concerned about losing your money you can choose not to give an offerring or rather give the amount you want, no body forces you to give a specific amount, as much as i agree that giving is overemphasized in churches these days no body forces you to give!! Lalasticalala mynd44 fp material

Dtruthspeaker Its funny how you pick out only parts of my post, you didnt see the place where i said that the church is a mixed multitude, and even at that so you think you are the only one serving God rightly, no one else but you, lol, you better come to terms that you may be as imperfect as they are and even if you are better, you would seek to make an impact on that assembly and not leave!!
