PoliticsRe: Give Evidence Of Victories Over B’haram, BBOG Tells Military by Ogozirim: 6:36am On Feb 23, 2015
BodyKiss:
They're asking for evidence of victory, not their mode of operation. I don't see anything wrong in showing Nigerians video or picture evidence of the supposed recovered territories as claimed by Nigerian army.
The NA owes no obligation to evidence details of progress made on the battle field, that is the duty of journalists. Please be guided.

steppin:
Beg OBJ for wetin? Is he God?
The airs and graces PDP members give the old buffoon makes him feel like he's a demi-god.
The president of a country as big as Nigeria should go on his knees, just to get approval from man who is corrupt beyond his bones?
I fear Naija politics!
This is politics, my friend. It's a game of numbers.
PoliticsRe: We Lack The Capacity To Prevent Corruption In Nigeria – Okonjo-Iweala by Ogozirim: 12:21am On Feb 19, 2015
Scenario1: A Nigerian abroad maintains the queue, does not attempt to bribe, does not even have the opportunity to.

Scenario2: Same Nigerian returns to Nigeria and is very willing to voluntarily provide inducements to advance his course, jumps queues and breaks protocol, having a mindset that with the right price, everything is possible.

Is the change in attitude attributable only to the person or does the system contribute?

Will a foreigner, for instance, a European, act differently in same circumstances?
Christianity EtcRe: My Friends Want Me To Become Catholic. Your Thoughts. by Ogozirim: 2:11pm On Aug 17, 2012
Come on guys let's throw in the towels before we miss the point.

A persons religion is a core attribute of his person and must be respected if respect is valued at all. It is best to keep personal opinons to one's self unless they are dispassionately conveyed driven by a motive born out of love and understanding, knowing that you see the world differently from your vantage position in life.

Leave the judging to God. In my view, tolerance is an essential quality of christianity without which you can not fullfil the great commision - soul winning.

Shalom!

booqee: Well to all d catholics on ere, try and open dis link: www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Roman%20Catholicism/mary_worship_a_study.htm
After reading it, i bet u, ur eyes are gonna be opened to the sheer heresy of catholicism. And its even d words of a former nun who has now realised dat d catholic church is nothing but a mary worshiping heretical church.
No offence, but pls try to open d link and read it.
The only heresy I see here is you depriving yourself of the use of your God given intellect in failing to verify what you read (wondering what it is you find convincing in that sentimental write-up). I suggest you spend a little time to verify intents & contents of references that form its bases. Don't be like our brothers who take -sinker, hook and line- the mind cocktail dished to them by "elites" and then foolishly go out to blow themselves and others up for an eternal promise that apparently seems suited only for the poor and less privileged.

Shalom!
Christianity EtcRe: My Friends Want Me To Become Catholic. Your Thoughts. by Ogozirim:
frosbel: So how come you pray more times to Mary than to God when using your rosary.

Besides , why does the catholic church teach the heresy of the immaculate conception and ascension of Mary. Where is this in the bible ?

Or are you willing to regard the word of popes and priests with more seriousness than the word of GOD itself which is in the Bible.
You will agree that it is by these same words of Popes and priests that a number of ordinances not expressly written, or probably never indicated in the Bible, have become mainstream christian practices.

You may want to read up the origins of :

1. The Easter date which, though is not fixed, was established by the Council of Nicaea - yes, a catholic council.

2. The Trinity - established by the Council of Nicaea (catholic again)

2. The New testament of the bible - compiled by 4th Century theologians, eminent Christian teachers and great bishops including inputs from Saint Augustine(Bishop of Africa) and decree of Pope St. Damasus I, at the Council of Rome in 382, "The Decree of Damasus", in which he listed the canonical books of both the Old and New Testaments.

....the list goes on, and goes to show you that most conventional christian practices, accepted memorial dates and theologies emanated from this church you have so much fallen out with. I can tell you with confidence that insofar as you are a Christian but not Sabbatarian of JW, you rely on, use and live by so many enunciations that originated from the mouth of catholic bishops, like it or not. And quote me, these are not all written in the Bible. grin cheesy

frosbel: Yes because they are alive.
Matt 22:32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?’God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
Of course death is not the end of our immortal souls, but eternal death (separation from God) is. I'm sure you'd agree that at least a few souls (redeemed by the blood of the lamb) have made heaven, including the one whom all generation shall call blessed (Luke 1:48)

frosbel: God has no mother and Mary cannot pray for you , she died a few thousand years ago. We are warned not to consult with the dead.
Again, pls refer to Luke 1:43. If the mystery of the Trinity is anything to go by then dear Frosbel the Lord Jesus is one and the same God with the Father and in His wisdom God chose to come in flesh through a woman, calling her mother. Why should you (Frosbel) take Panadol on behalf of someone else, eh?

frosbel: Instead you go a Priest, a mere man like yourself , to explain the bible that God promised to teach you directly through the Holy Spirit.
I'm sure even at work you seek council from subject matter experts and senior colleagues; God's injunction that the Spirit will teach you all things does not in any way preclude occasions of learning from spiritual advisors. Keep an open mind bro grin

Got to give it to you, you got me talking - with my fingers. smiley

NGF, stop yapping and start acting. Your actions will speak volumes over these cheap publicity stints you embark on in a bit to feed you inordinate desire to appear relevant.

Person wey sabi them abeg assist us tell them to keep their 'activity' to themselves.
