Akwara25:
Amechi is some how avoiding El - Rufai condition.. even Atiku is not save... We're the city boys we no dey see face...

Another foolish talk again. 100k Tinubu cannot summoned Atiku.

The opposition is so weak, the weakest in Nigeria history.

jaephoenix:
Lol 😆 ok
Lemme be direct.
Can one see god and live? I need a yes or no

Yes it's possible to see God and live.

DeOTR:
He has the right to tap anyone's line by virtue of his office. He's the NSA (The highest security officer in the country). His office can tap your phone if you're deemed a security concern. Now tell me what backing of the law rufai has to tap anyone's phone for that matter.

Don't just come online and drop anything in your head show me any document or law that says NSA can tap any Nigerian line. None exists except in your head. Do you know the meaning of privacy and freedom.

MaxInDHouse:
It simply means giving up worldly riches to make friend with God so choosing a career of Christian ministry instead of pursuing material riches is the same as storing your riches in heaven where no thief can see what you have with God!🙂

What do you mean by giving up worldly riches?
What you said is so inconsistent with God. What is pursuing material riches.
You mean that Christians are supposed to be poor? Like we should not engaged in businesses and job that can make us wealthy?

Steep:
You are turning scriptures upside down, no thanks to the bad theology of many of these corrupt churches.
Ecclesiastes 9:15 is only describing what goes on in this world, it wasn't endorsing it.
James is saying treat the poor and the rich equally without prefertial treatment.
When it comes to special recognition, it is meant for those who labored more not base of their resources.

Jesus specially recognized a widow even though she gave the least.

Mark 12:41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

12:42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.

12:43 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:

12:44 For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.

Kingdom reward is not base on how much you have but what you give relative to what you have.

You also wrongly interpreted

Luke 19:26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.

The parable is not about how rich materially you are but how you make use of what God give to you to be profitable to his kingdom and if you don't use what God gave you it will be taken from you.
Rewards in heaven is about the level of one's work relative to what he has. A poor person may labour more than a rich person and he will be honored more than the rich person. It is not about who is poor or who is rich but about making use of what you are given.

You are misinterpreting some of the scriptures above and my position does not differ from the rewards system you mentioned. God rewards system is in accordance with your labour, your input. That was why I said two people may have same capacity one can use its own for the kingdom and the other could use is for earthly purposes. The story of the widow's mite they could be other widows that have what she has and did not do what she did. God will reward us all according to our capacity of contribution. If I have 100k dollars and I use half of it and another one has same and use only 5 percentage of it the rewards cannot be the same.
In the church the people without money can be effective in other areas and they will be recognised in those areas of effectiveness. Area of contributions are plenty and you will recognise people's in what they did. That was how the scripture graded the people that were called the Mighty Men of David. They were 30 of them and they all have positions. They were others that were not also part of the numbers.

PHIPEX:
Fake pastor, see how proud he sounds in threatening to kill.

A mere empty man who can't create one hair wants to kill to prove a point. If he's this powerful why hasn't he killed all our politicians wrecking Nigeria and the bandits sacking his homeland?

He may be real but wrong foundation of how he thinks Christianity can be practised is what is affecting him. God said that my people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge. The guy knowledge gap is very wide and crazy. Look at the audacity its sickening and crazy. I defend the church a lot and the body of Christ but such a tweet is simply madness.

MAYOWAAK:
In James 2:1-9, the Bible condemns showing favoritism based on wealth, describing a scenario where a rich person in fine clothing and gold rings is given a seat of honor, while a poor person in shabby clothes is told to stand or sit on the floor. James calls this partiality, or discrimination, a sin.

First that scripture is different from what this question is for. Nobody is telling you to treat the poor with disdain because that is what James is addressing. Everybody most be treated with love in the house of God. But it's now different when they want to recognise people's effort to see that church services and activities are going on smoothly and some other persons are making that happen. Yes you most recognise them because they are people that have money in that same church and will not support the work of God there.

Ecclesiastes 9:15-16 (KJV) Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.
Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.

Lovit:
It is human nature; everyone prioritizes those who can get the work done

running a church is not easy, it needs funds

The holy brother who is struggling financially may have good intentions and prays fervently, but intentions and prayers alone don't make good services or fuel generators.

It only becomes a problem when the pastor recognizes the efforts of the financiers and neglect the spiritual and physical efforts of the average ones

but in all, it is better not to go to church than being there and you are not contributing spiritually, physically or financially; your pastor won't like you

This is not even a question self because God himself will recognise those who are making impact more than those who are not. He said He will reward everyone according to their work. Look the story of the talents, the rewards Jesus Christ gave was different.
And Jesus concluded that story with some power statement that people today fail to talk about.
Matthew 13:12 (KJV) For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

MaxInDHouse:
Because you people are not Christians Jesus commanded his REAL disciples:

“Stop storing up for yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal. Rather, store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes, and where thieves do not break in and steal.  For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matthew 6:19-21

“No one can slave for two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stick to the one and despise the other. You cannot slave for God and for Riches." Matthew 6:24

So in a religious gathering where riches is celebrated do you think those involved are followers of the man whose words are quoted above?

Jesus said:

"You are my friends if you do what I am commanding you" John 15:14

Of course any religious gathering where people are doing otherwise should be called "ANTICHRIST"

Young children, it is the last hour, and just as you have heard that the ANTICHRIST is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared, from which fact we know that it is the last hour. 1John 2:18

Some of you will quote scriptures and with your zero understanding you will explain rubbish. What do you think you are explaining with the scriptures above. What does it mean to store up for yourself treasure in heaven. It's all about your investing or putting your money in the kingdom of God through activities that advanced the kingdom of God. During Jesus time they were people also that minister to Jesus their resources and it continued with the apostles that people sold land and properties for the kingdom sake. If I have a million dollars and I gave it for church projects that is what it means to store treasures in heaven.

And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.
— Luke 8:2,3

Acts 4:34-37 (KJV) Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,
Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.

That is what it means to store up in heaven. When your resources enter the kingdom of God.

It's obvious she's a content creator, she dey lie.





Assuming na oyibo kid make this statement I for believe am, nor be this agbaya.

Sometimes when I see post like yours I understand why people cannot understand the world that we live, the reality of life. You lack understanding of the complex and biasness of media and social media in the world. Do you think the way Africans are very much accessible to pure information, this Europeans are? When she tells you that she grow up knowing that Africa is just a single country and like a village do you think she was just kidding. They are millions in Europe that still think the way she previously thought. You think people from Australia continents know about Africa. Just dey play.

Macnnoli4:
I don't understand Western education system there sha, it is like 90% education and 10% propaganda. I mean despite the fact that European countries inadvertently helped modernising Africa through colonialism, their people are still ignorant of how modernised Africa is today.⁴

You are yet to understand the meaning of propaganda and brain washing.

BAILMONEY:
She said she had no idea Africa had 54 countries, and thought it was just one country filled with villages of starving people needing western aid and charity donations.

The above statement na Hushpuppi dem yahoo format that year

She said they were thought in their schools it's not Hushpuppi statement. You are now behaving like the exact European leaders they lied about Africa.

Mr landslide that is afraid of real time transmission of result. APC is a party to bite yet you guys are afraid. Opposition always screamed rigging when it doesn't favour them said by some APC E-RAT and yet they refused to do what will make them not to scream that an election was rigged.

People don't wake up and give away there cars. It has to come from God's directives. Or it has to come from a depth. Even my Pastors have given cars too when they had none.

Sonnobax15:

What were they doing with their lives when they were still in their era of premier league? . Probably forming Ronaldo and Messi, dribbling different men and scoring hat tricks and celebrating their victories

Now that they had been relegated to championship and league one,na now Dem dey beg Nigerians for help

Not every girls that you see in such an age that lived a worthless life. Some has been misfortune for too long. Most men in their 40ths that don't want to marry it's not because they don't want to marry but life happened to them. Men are always talking this way and brandishing this girls because they stand in a disadvantage position. If most when have this leverage that men have many would be married. I have met 27 and 29 years virgin with good behaviour but they are not married. Understand that we are living in a complex world that things are not the way we see them always.

Buharidgeneral:
Wailers sign of early defeat

Can you guys just think with your brain some times. The normal practice has always been 12 am at midnight. Which one is 8 pm on Friday when some people are still going about their legitimate business.

HacheNoire:
The pedo already crying!

He has gone too far that the Supreme Court he owns can’t even back him again!

But if it's Nigeria the supreme court will change the law for Tinubu

franchasng:
I am suspecting that this Russian propagandist is working in hand with Seun the Nland owner.



Imagine saying Russian dialect spoken more than English, French and Spanish languages

You can fact check instead of thinking it's a propaganda. Ask yourself between Russia and UK which is more populated. You don't just end there some part of USSR speak the Russian language so those countries today part of them speak Russian language like in Ukraine for an example.

Strangely some people would think that Europe is all about English.

autoez:
Im a Christian and respect islam religion. Pastors don't even care whether you fast or pray. All they want is your money. Many hypocrites in Christianity. But the way they force their people should be looked into. There should be better ways other than arresting someone for not fasting. That's to ancient to be used in 2026

If were leader, i will just punish them by throttling their data speed. Make it seriously slow like 0.70kb/s.

What do you think

Another useless talk. Did Jesus or the apostle forced anyone to fast. Always the fake one among us castigating us. Rubbish

This people sha is it by force to fast.

Make una dey pass him around like gift. At the end you guys will release him.

God1000:
Does he expect a highly revered and respected Pope to join his board of dictators

Has UN ever solved any problem. Tell me just one since it creation.

manuelkel:
Honestly, this polygamy stuff is crazy, it's right to be polygamous but cheating on your wife with your Nanny that's some sort messed up act.
You can cheat anyone else but not the nanny, the same as women cheating with their husband's errand boys.... it's rubbish.

Cheating is cheating whether with a house help or not. Some house help are truly beautiful and attractive. I have seen. I will advise that the last resort a woman should have considered before leaving her home is to have some space not a divorce. Women tend to through hash and tougher faces than men. After divorce for a younger woman. You start seeing young men and all sort of men coming to you. You begin suffering the same thing you suffered as a single girl. Heartbreaks and guys still cheating on you. The most strangest thing is having same experience that made you to divorce, you will see same thing in a new relationship and decide to be patient. Patience that you should have had when married.

AMINDA:
DSS: Someone tapped the phone of the NSA. He needs to be prosecuted.

Court: Where’s your evidence?

DSS: I go lie for you?

I said that it is DSS that will have to prove the allegation of tapping not El Rufai but some ignorant people are arguing. If you take him to court and he denied tapping it what would they say. You will play what he said as evidence. That will not work. What if he said I say that just to get a reaction from the government I did it to know how arrogant they are. They are to prove that he did it and they cannot prove that he did it because he said it.

You don't stop going to church because of any character in church. You will not say because some lecturers are terrible, some bosses or CEO are this or that I am not going to the university or going to work. The bottom line is that you stop going to church and God will judge your actions separately. Scripture says the church is the church of the living God. Jesus is the head of the church and he will judge you and pastors likewise. The pastor based on their works, you based on your refusal for attending services that God has established. Go and look for church that align to your value and leave the politics of the church alone and serve God for yourself. You think it's everything that happened in church that all of us that are still going to church will agree too. Even till today people question God so you think if people can question God then they won't questioned pastors too.

Check my profile. I did a thread in bible gaffes which includes contradictions,lies and half truths. And I didn't even cover all of it.
Here it is https://www.nairaland.com/7659505/book-bible-gaffes

I checked some of the things you said are contradictions but they are not. To you they are but to us they are not. Your lack of understanding of scripture or God's word create that gap in knowledge that you have. Scriptural can not be interpreted with the senses because it was given through the wisdom of God. But I will find out time to answer a few of them. But answering them are not the problem but you accepting the truth at the end.

dederocs:
Hungry sycophant, get sense

You just described who you are there.

dederocs:
So you are talking politics not law...this is why Nigeria can't move forward because of sycophants, who see everything in the eyes of politics.

You think Kanu was imprisoned because of law or politics. Just be playing there.
I already told you that by law El Rufai can't be imprisoned.

dederocs:
Same thing Kanu thought, I don't know the kind of law school you went to,

El Rufai is not Kanu Na, you should know better. El Rufai is a northern assets. Just know that.
