Christianity EtcRe: Why I Stormed Out Of The Church Today. by osomegbe(m): 9:55pm On Jan 22, 2017
sipsip:
I just really want to believe you don't understand the settings I projected. I was not being disobedient or stubborn. I just felt it was wrong for the Usher to do that, in the middle of worship? Abs I don't see church as an 'organization' bro. It's a house of God. Plus, I'm a bona-fide member so I know the rules and what is applicable.
If you're so sure you know the rules and you are sure you're not wrong, why ask for the platform opinion.
Cover your face in shame. If you can't obey simple rules as where to sit, how can you obey not fornicating or other stringent rules.

tejpot:
Hello sir, you fall my hand.
You know why I am typing this late? Because I had to read the bible before responding. A pastor should not suffer but a pastor should also sacrifice. What's the role of the musician? to entertain his or her audience for money. The role of a politician, to deceive the masses using the law or so to make money. A millionaire? To invest wisely or risky wisely to make money.
For all these people there is no categorical guiding principle or specific role model. All are subjective and depend on individual's view and exposure. But when it comes to a Pastor, there is a guiding principle-the bible, there is a role model-Jesus, and there are lights to guide him-the disciples. Jesus advocates a modest life, and this is evidenced by his conducts in the bible. The disciples set an incredible example for us, they broke bread together and they shared everything in common. Truly the pastors cannot be stopped from making their money, but will they be able to share it in common with the church. And don't forget that the church is particularly set up to cater for members welfare; physical and spiritual.

Again going by your analogy, "being a pastor does not mean you shouldn't enjoy life", I want to agree with you, and you will also agree with me that "being a Christian does not mean I should not do the normal things people(millionaires, politicians, Muslims, atheists, Hinduist,) do. That means I can lie, steal, kill, get drunk, fornicate, sexuallise, sleep with animals, commit suicidal acts and continue to leave an uncontrolled life. Since all these are part of enjoying life. I totally agree with you that following in the footsteps of pastors, members should enjoy life to the fullest maximum.

Thanks
Enjoy life is not to commit as postulated by you. There are other ways you can do that without sinning.
I also agree that there should be moderation in all they do, but where can we draw the line. It seems relative these days.
But, I am not a winners church member, when this same man was driving tortoise car, nobody saw him. When he was living in the bush and eating 1-2 meal a day , nobody saw him.etc Even there was a time I heard and read figure of speech- as poor as a church rat. I believe God gave the devil a knockout punch by making them rich. It was an abuse to say what belongs to the church should beg to eat.
My take, if you are not convinced, don't pay your tithes. If you believe it is a covenant and you're benefiting then pay. No force about it. After all people believed in MMM before it suspends its operations and people will still believe after January 16, that is if they resume operations.
But I tell, I know of many people that their parents dont have hope of sch fees that are under church scholarship. Some are new members that are less than a year in some churches. How much have they contributed to pay their children school fees for 4 years. Etc.
My take, I don't speak when I don't have the full details. We are far off.

Since you claim you can vouch for him.
It seems you don't know he is a writer also.
Christianity EtcRe: Does A Nigerian Pastor Truly Need A Private Jet? by osomegbe(m): 2:02pm On Dec 18, 2016
Good question that must be answered the best way I can. Is it bought with personal money or church money? Do you need it for church business or private holidaying etc.
If it is just a Nigerian church without branches worldwide like country like Papau New Guinea, you may not need, otherwise I think they need if they need to be travelling all over the world almost on a weekly basis.
The craze is jet now. It used to be cars and nobody is talking about cars today. It will still fade away.
Nobody sees anything wrong with the pope owning a jet, and heliport, helicopters etc. But we make noise when it is Nigeria pastor. What is the difference between the pope and the GO that has branches worldwide.
In my particular parish, the less privilege enjoy from the rich more. Resources are put together to assist some most times. Sch fees are paid. House rents are also paid etc. Come to the church and get involved and speak based what you experienced and not what you hear.

She may be pure but poor care can cause this. The markings are obviously there. Normal feeding, multivitamin, proper vaccination etc. Might be missing in that dog upbringing.

It pained me you responded to his comments. Ignoring some people trying to divert the topic to something else. I was very happy that he has been ignored by all only for me to see your quote. When parents are mourning and all we can say to them is to question their religion.

If he is not fake he should be proud to advertise the real dog he intends selling.
I have seen that dog before and the owner told us why he was selling early this year. So, let us be truthful and avoid this scam of a thing. A lot of people now refer to NL dog section as scammers den if you don't know. it shouldn't be so. let us be real for Christ sake.
