JerryQ:
Op, you said you are not a JW, i wonder where you fellowship though. From the topic, i saw it will attract many JWs and yes it did. One thing i like about JWs is that most of them are morally astute but the number one thing i don't like about them is that they deny the person of the Holy Spirit. And only the Holy Spirit can interpret the scriptures to you correctly . This therefore means all of your other doctrinal interpretation since they are not Holy Spirit inspired stand a chance of being incorrect. My counsel to JW members, First settle the issue of the Holy Spirit then light can flow into you from the scriptures on other aspects. At least ask Jehovah to explain to you what happened to the early disciples in Acts 2.

John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

John 15:26 ¶But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

You've spoken well dear

hemartins:
Does Hell Exist - What did Jesus say?
Some who argue that hell does not exist do so on the basis of their belief that Jesus taught love, peace, and forgiveness - and that He did not teach about an eternal place of fiery punishment for non-believers. However, the exact opposite is true. Jesus taught more about hell than anyone else in the Word of God. Jesus described hell as a place of eternal fire, (Matthew 25:41) eternal punishment (Matthew 25:46), and as a place of torment, fire, and agony (Luke 16:23-24). Jesus taught specifically about hell many times in His ministry (Matthew 5:22, 29-30; 10:28; 18:9; 23:15, 33 Mark 9:43-47; Luke 12:6; 16:23).

Nice one! The truth is if you close your eyes while your house is on fire,it won't stop it from burning down. For the fact that they refuse to believe in hell fire doesn't make it false. My prayer for them is that God should reveal more of eternity to them in Jesus name.

Why is Nigeria full of propagander? I think if a first lady of a country is visiting another country, it is the duty of the govt of the host country that will send delegates that will welcome her. In many case the first lady of the host country would also be the one to welcome the visiting first lady.
I am not saying that she commited the crime she is accused of but saraki's wife went to USA she took pictures with Obama's wife. Though she's is not yet back, I am waiting to see her pictures with michell Obama and some other government delegates.

Politics › Why The Feud Between Yorubas And Igbos by OlivetBen(op): 12:26pm On Jul 31, 2016

I always ask myself this question "what is the feud between the west and the east all about(yorubas and the igbos)?
I believe that somebody who can read, write or type is learned. We the learned people shouldn't allow our lives to be influenced by an individual.
The individual might have gotten things wrong at the very first stage and he/she will drag others into it thereby creating hatred and animosity among his descendants and other people.
Take for instance when we were small(tender in age) there were some homes our parents would want us not to be friends with neither to play with their children just because the head of each families had misunderstanding in the past. And they'll end up causing generational hatred between the families.

In the case of Yoruba and Igbo, I don't think there is any difference between them. They school 2geda, they have religion in common(to an extent), they inter marry, they trade in common. As I am, I am an igbo person, I am schooling in the West(OAU to be precise) , my uncle married a yoruba woman(they have children together) and they've been living fine,in school 95 percents of my friends are yorubas, God's willing I am planing to marry a yoruba woman.

We are the current generation, let's allow the philosophies(especially those philosophies that breed hatred) of the past leaders to die with them since it has not brought the desired change that we want and develop a mindset that is positive and that can stand the test of time.
I read about the kind of friendship that transpired between Aguyi Ironsi and Fajuyi. The friendship that made Fajuyi to die with him(Ironsi) an easterner. The humility,honesty,hospitality,selflesness that was seen in Fajuyi brought out goose pimples out of my body. Can't we develop that kind of attitude and lifestyle? It baffles me each time i go online and read the kind abuse each group lay on each other, I will say ah! Ah! What is the matter?
Aguyi Ironsi's philosophies and actions have had little or no impact in the development of this country. Nnamdi Azikwe's philosophies might have solved the problem on ground during their time but that philosphies are now archaic let us change them.
Chief Obafemi Awolowo was in no doubt a hero with theoretical and practical philosophies that helped to remedy some situations on ground during their era but if I may ask, are those philosophies still working in this fast changing world?
If the northerners are proving difficult to develop, the Southerners can unanimously pull them through with their wealth of knowledge and technical know- how.
I would have loved to continue to highlight things but time will fail me. So my candid advice is that we the present generation should step up on our game and leave those past leaders who had served their generation to rest in peace and face our own generation and leave a legacy for the coming generation instead of casting aspersions on each other and I believe that country will be better.

Christianity Etc › Re: Ayodele Blasts Adeboye, Oyedepo, Kumuyi Over Silence On Killings Of Christians by OlivetBen(m): 6:38pm On Jul 29, 2016

greatgod2012:
The truth is that many of them are wallowing in hypocrisy.

Their hypocrisy stinks to high heavens.

They don't want their names mentioned as mixing religion with politics, but when it is the time of campaign, they don't mind praying, fasting, anointing and jumping because of their preferred candidates.

Their silence is truly annoying, not even a statement against the evils from any of them.

And the next thing now is that they'll see this article as an attack to their person, when its just the undiluted truth.

I'm also a Christian o, and I respect those who deserve my respect among the so called MOGs, but I hate it when hypocrisy is mixed with holiness.

When one is supposed to speak out, but refuses to, the implication is that, its either such is in support of the evil done or afraid to speak out, and both are not the attributes of a real child of God.

The fanatics can start attacking me o, but the truth just have to be said.

And please, this is not about their national anthem of "touch not my anointed" ish o, It just the truth.

I don't think anybody need to attack u because u attcked yourself already

Good move!

That will at least curb illegal parking

Reduce over-head cost of towing vehicles to LASTMA garage

Reduce traffic on our ever busy roads and also,

Increase the productivity of LASTMA as less official will available to monitor a road sice they will only be needed to remove plate numbers.

The Lagos State Government need to procure electronic screw-drivers for them so it will be easier and faster for them to remove number plates.

When another person's corpse is carried the passers-by will never know what the bereaved are going through.
Why won't u say so, may be u have not gotten a car and I am praying that u get ur own car and also appreciate the new lagos revenue generation strategy. Have u ever considered u going to the bank,market or even to the toilet when u are called by the force of nature and there is no park close by ?
