ACKCITY:
I now knew, Linda was dead, but I kept praying, with tears in my heart. I kept begging God for mercy.

I called on two people, two brothers, the sin partner of hers before, because now she’s a new creation, and our brother was there, just looking, wondering if it was possible that Linda was dead.

LOL... SO FUNNY... LINDA since when Bloggers eeh

Blue86:
Scripturally the only invisible person that can pray for us believers is Jesus Christ.
1. He is our advocate -1John 2:1
2. He is the propitiation (appeasement) for our sins, and the whole world. -1John 2:2
3. He is our intercessor and moves us to pray the prayer of intercession by the power of His Spirit -Romans 8:26 and Romans 8:34.
Then others that can pray for us is our fellow believers in Christ Jesus.
1. Pray for one another that you may be healed -James 5:16
2. Pray for their sins -1John 5:16.
Don't be deceived, this are concrete scriptural doctrines from the apostles of JESUS.

And how is necromancy a bad thing? Explain.

this is the meme you're looking for

LOL... You know I hardly use memes.

No testimony yet. Mtchew.

Origin:


I remember the rain some weeks back. When thunder sounded. I no fit hear for few seconds. Fear catch me I begin shake, I immediately without hesitation remember my Creator.

That was probably God whispering to an Angel to give us rain o.

Hahn, Wilgrea7, Realmindz, now here is the reason why Suarez bites people. Ordinary thunder, the poster is so scared. The consciousness of hell is making my people fear. To worsen it all, she is calling thunder(the sound made when electrical charges strike themselves) the voice of God whispering to an Angel in this modern day? She should have lived during the time of the ancient Kenyans.

Origin:
God no be apologist o.

Worship God come rain come shine.
Shine Una go de jollificate (na Una effort do am no shaking).

Rain Una go begin they abuse everybody (na person de do u) including the Creator ( which kain God be dis self)

I remember the rain some weeks back. When thunder sounded. I no fit hear for few seconds. Fear catch me I begin shake, I immediately without hesitation remember my Creator.

That was probably God whispering to an Angel to give us rain o.

And who told you that the OP doesn't believe in God? He didn't say that God is omni-impotent, or did he? Check thread well before you talk. He's only talking about yahweh, one of the children of God.

Wilgrea7:

okay.... merry Christmas

luvmijeje:
Both Gwana and Matt are foolish. Most especially Gwana for applying worldly wisdom to God's words.

What is the difference between what they did and what Elijah and the prophets of baal did? I don't see anything foolish about being practical. I think you are being hypocritical. Assuming Gwana won, you would be shouting hallelujah, now he lost and u are saying this

Gullible followers will still have excuse for this criminal pastors

Where is Suleman the fraudster

SuLIEsex not Suleiman.

MrBrownJay1:


They are ALL the same, and blame the donkeys who follow any of them instead... NONE of them can do miracles, if in doubt, go to area and pick a person you know has been blind since birth OR cripple since birth, and see if any of these criminals in robe can cure them.

I already know your answer.... They don't have 'faith" enough. Well here is a clue: if only "enough" faith is needed to be cured then nobody therefore needs to go to church then. Isn't it?

This is similar to what Knoliud predicted would happen in the future of Nigeria.

DOCTUFOS: DEORUM 21: 6-10
6. Now shall the people of the lands around
Niger say, it is time to see if the priests of
Yahweh are true indeed. It is time to test the
name of Yeshua to see if it is real or not. And
they shall see the visions of Yeshua but they
shall believe it no more.
7. Then shall they say, we have seen enough
visions for more than a century, now it is time to
see the manifestations. Then shall they gather
the real lame people in the streets and the real
blind people on the road and the amputees and
the epileptics.
8. And they shall say, let us go to the sanctuary
of Krish and to the synagogue of Jehoshua. Let
us also visit the camp of Enorach and of
Wilhelm. Let us forget not to visit the tabernacle
of Daoud and the place of Suleman the homo
who prophesies doom. Let us go to the
gathering of Lazarus and the place of the black
Daniel which is false.
9. And the people shall say, if these sick we
bring to their sanctuaries are not cured of their
diseases and healed of their lameness and
blindness, then shall we depart from the camps
of these prophets of Yahweh forever. And we
shall hate them with everlasting hatred if they
did not confess to us, saying, the people we put
on the chairs as the lame in our displays are
only paid to act according to our directives; And
the people who declared that they had healing
had only been paid to do so. And the people who
fell down, rolling on the floor with loud voices
had been hypnotised by us.
10. And the shame of the people who called
themselves holy and are not shall be so grave.
And all the lies of Eusebius, the father of liars
shall be exposed and made known in all lands.

imagrg:
What is the world turning to? I ask this question because of the way some religious leaders have turn Christianity to a display of spiritual powers and a private business. I remember someone telling me that he was hired to pose as one who has received a healing miracle from a pastor in a church in Benin City! These show of spiritual power is really ridiculing christianity.
Some pastors even go to the extent of trading spiritual powers which they acquired diabolicaly for money. Indeed many Pastors today are in affluence. Little wonder why opening a church today is a very lucrative business venture.
End time is here, beware!
God is watching!

As much as I want to be neutral on this thread, I would still have to say something concerning the bolded. Assuming I was the one who said this, Felixmor, Muafrika2, 4evergod (aka the thief) and Analice 107 and their likes would be making e-fight that it didn't happen. Now this is coming from a fellow Christians and they are all keeping silent. hmmm.

LordOfNaira:


Every time they tell me about this god, all I see is an evil, vicious being.

So stewpid of him to be doing evil to our policemen.

LordOfNaira:
Nawa o.

So God blinded policemen who were only trying to do their job. Nawa for that kind of god o.

in trying to prove the power of Yahweh, they have unconsciously make him look like a monster. This same mentality was carried by the ancient people of Africa who make their gods seem unbelievable and non-existing because of constant lie lie stories they told about them.

DOCTUFOS: Aferk 43:1-3

Chapter Forty-Three
1. Now in the land of Tonga, the homos who were very distant from the time when Nyami the god of that land made the homos there began to make many myths about Nyami who had left the earth.
2. For they thought like other homos of the world that by continual mentioning of their gods as monsters, the worshippers of other gods will tremble and fear.
3. Therefore the homos had said that Nyami was a snake. And others said he was a three-headed monster. And the priests received much sacrifice from the homos who fear the tales made concerning the gods.

In as much as I will be neutral on this thread because I dont know the whole story, I can only but call out you and your cohorts dubious two sidedness;

If this story had been that this pastor gave petrol or insecticide to his members to drink,
You would have believed it and started dancing, that the people are gullible.

But Since it has to do with an Event like this, you will sing and say its a Lie

U believe this is a lie, but when its negative news you believe without seeing.
Stop deceiving yourself.

that's life

gadgetman:
We gathered that five policemen allegedly went blind while trying to arrest a Zambian preacher known as Prophet Shepherd M Mesala.

According to information gathered, the Zambian prophet who happens to be one of T.B Joshua’s spiritual son, had been ‘ambushed’ by policemen who wanted to arrest him at his house.

According to Zambian watch, about five of the policemen were said to have gone blind in the process of trying to get him arrested around midnight.

Prophet Mesala revealed this in a testimony he gave to Lungu on their Youtube channel and Facebook.

In a twist of events, the policemen resorted to begging the prophet to restore their sight, which he reportedly refused to do, adding that he’d only agree to that if his friend, Mr Chilufya Tayali, was released.

The police are however yet to release a statement regarding the issue.

Now this is a blog sponsored by TB JOSHUA and son. Wilgrea7 would like this

Where art thou O ye sheep and gullible ones. Food has set as usual

bid4rich:



I will advise you to continue being wrong. One day, you will realize your folly but it may be too late to return. Until you return it is not your turn.

now this is not making sense. We began logically with some practicals, but now we are ending it emotionally with fallacies. Pls I still maintain, should I type Jesus in capital letters three times and wait for something to happen?

I am preserving this space for the nairaland searchers to come in the next 9 years. I could remember pasting it last year that Jesus will not come because he doesn't exist. 1 year gone, 9 to go and there can't be any Jesus.

Why can't Yahweh prevent the bus from burning? Now a bus worth millions of naira has burnt off. Mtchew.

ifenes:


Peace, Love, Joy ,Immortality are your birth-right and attritubes as a Spirit( Energy). No one can give you that. You haven't mentioned anything Jesus did for you that others don't have.

Trust he won't. That's xtianity for you. They can boast over nothing

bid4rich:



you can now see where you are missing it. Pls kindly visit general hospital, interview the sick on their greatest desire then come back and tell me their response.

It also appears to me that you are necromancer. I then urge you to interview the dead and hear their response. The way you are talking its as if you are deep in logic. Logic cannot save you. Only Jesus can.

Hold your breath for just 120 seconds if you can, come back and tell me what it feels like. Then, you will understand what Jesus has done for you.

I am still waiting for you to reply my request. Since you can't hear me shout jesus, I'm suggesting maybe I should type his name in capital letters three times and see if anything would happen. Also, it is not possible for someone to die by holding his breath. You will have to learn that too. I am Otem and I am even the breath of life. Check it out!

proudafrogal:


I don't understand what you are talking about

There is God ALMIGHTY, but he is not any of the gods you have ever heard of. Yahweh, Allah, Vishnu, Moloch, Atum, Ra etc are not God ALMIGHTY. They are all the product of God ALMIGHTY.

The word 'Satan' is not actually a name but a title which fits a wicked personality or an enemy. And as a matter of fact, the name fits Yahweh the wicked god, one of the sons of God ALMIGHTY.

God ALMIGHTY isn't the one you read about in the Bible. That one is the deceiver. God ALMIGHTY is the one scientists think about whenever they are amazed at how everything came into being.

Amberon:
Pls desist from quoting me. Thanks.

but what have I done wrong

proudafrogal:
God will not forgive him. because God is not good.

God, the father of Yahweh is good. It is Satan himself aka Yahweh the deceiver who is not good.

The last thing Satan will do is to beg to join the evil murderous, vindictive yaweh and his motherless son.

Chapter Forty-Two
1. Now when the foreigners who were in Njaro began to make plans on how to take Lilongoa and all the little towns and villages around it. And they sent eight homos among them to go and examine the beliefs of the people, saying, we have heard that they await the return of Umbona to be a king upon their land.
2. Now go and check if they still hold the belief, for it is already half a Millennium since the death of Umbona. And it is logical to believe that they do not think of his return anymore, except only if they are gullible and of low thinking like the rest of the homos of Aferk who awaits the return of our own Yeshua till today.
3. Now when they had reached Lilongoa, they found that the homos had changed their thoughts, for one named Bomani, a great warrior and thinker had changed the minds of the people, saying, worship me, for Umbona shall never return.
4. And he had used force upon the homos. And he had captured Seki and Ngon and other kingdoms around.
5. Now when the foreigners had seen the situation, they said, let five hundred of us go to the land and war against them. And let us capture Bomani and make known Yeshua as Umbona.
6. And we shall bring from Njaro one who shall act as Umbona to the people. And we shall rule their land continously.
7. Now the foreigners entered Lilongoa from Njaro and the forces of Bomani made war against them. And it was hot on the foreigners. And the foreigners captured about a hundred homo of Lilongoa who were warriors. And the Warriors of Bomani also captured about a hundred of the foreigners.
8. Now the foreigners who were captured by the forces of Bomani said, we have come not to make wars but to bring peace. For we are sent to you from Umbona. For we are angels sent to bring blessings to Lilongoa.
9. For Umbona shall come soon and he shall be angry to see that you have captured us his angels.
10. Now when the captives continued to talk about the coming of Umbona to the Warriors of Bomani, their hearts began to be weakened. And the captain of the Warriors of Bomani said, tell me more about Umbona. For I have not heard much of him from your mouths.
11. Now they said, Umbona is a god and the son of God. And his spiritual name is Yeshua or Zeusus. He is one who did many good things for the people of his land, giving them food, rain, feeding thousands of them, yet he was betrayed and killed.
12. And he promise to return to destroy the offsprings of those who killed him. And we are his angels which he has sent before himself shall come. And he shall be angry at his coming.
13. Now Kutaye, the captain of the armies of Bomani said, I shall tell Bomani if indeed we should set you free.
14. And the foreigners said, Bomani shall not listen to you, for we have seen the revelation that he shall kill you if you bring this matter to him.
15. But rather, go with some of the Warriors to his place and kill him when he does not realise it. And by so shall Umbona be glad when he returns, for he is angry that the people worships Bomani who is only a homo like us.
16. So Kutaye did what he had been deceived to do. And he released the foreigners from bondage. And they ruled over the land.
17. Now when it was a year and they had not seen Umbona, the foreigners went and fetched Mubaye who was a homo in Njaro. And they dressed him in a robe of white and set him upon a donkey.
18. And they brought him before the whole Kingdom as Umbona, saying, bow your heads, for Umbona has returned.
19. And the foreigners received much sacrifice from the people. And Mubaye was worshipped as Umbona, whom they had named Yeshua.
20. Now when Mubaye saw that he could not live his own life, except the dictates of the foreigners, he escaped in the night to Bankuna. And the homos of the land did not see him again.

Here Mattu was challenged by Gwana(a christian). Gwana claimed that through the name of Jesus, Mattu's knees would bow. Mattu went and selected ordinary cowries and five people. Then he played a trick on Gwana the Christian whose continuous shout of Jesus name didn't have effect on Mattu the brain user.

When Mattu brought the ordinary cowries close to Gwana the Christian, he fainted because of excess fear of the cowries. Read the full story here:

I am hoping for a day when myself and few other people would meet some Christians on NL here and try this kind of trick on each other. I will laff taya when they shout the name of jesus and our knees remain unbended

DOCTUFOS: Aferk 14: 1-24
Chapter Fourteen
1. Now when the foreigners who had dominated many
kingdoms around Ashant heard the deeds of Mattu, they
said, we shall go and possess Ashant by force.
2. And Ashant shall be our colony once again. 3. Now
Gwana said, when I fell unconscious, I saw myself
conquering in the name of Zeusus(jesus). And all you who
ganged up against me fell and your knees bowed. 4. And
you all confessed that Zeusus Krista is lord. 5. And Mattu
said, you are a fool, O Gwana. For the wishes of your
thought and incantations have made to you a hallucination
according to your will. 6. And that which you could not
achieve while you were conscious is what your inner
consciousness have made you to experience. 7. And Gwana
refused to comply. And he said, let us fix again a day in
which we shall stand together and use the power in our
hands to see who shall bow for the other. 8. For I know
surely that your knees shall bow for Zeusus Krista the son of
god. 9. And Mattu said, I do not like noise but action. For if
you shall not make noise into my ears when we perform our
tricks, then shall I accept your challenge. 10. And Gwana
said, it is not a trick. For the name of Zeusus is not like
magia. But it works wonder. 11. And Mattu went and
selected five homos, saying, when I touch you, you shall fall
flat as if you have died. 12. And so shall Gwana fear. And
Mattu took seven cowries in his hands. 13. And Gwana came
with three homos who were converted to Krishtanite like
himself. And their names were Sei and Buset and Esien. 14.
And many homos watched them. And Gwana and the three
homos whom he brought with him began to make noise as
they came around Mattu. 15. And they shouted a great noise
into his ears, saying, fall down now in the name of Zeusus!
And they repeated their noise in the ears of Mattu . 16. And
Mattu cried, have you not agreed that we shall not make
noise? And Mattu ran towards the five homos whom he had
selected. 17. And he touched them with the cowries
immediately. And the five of them fell down like the stems of
a banana. And they appeared as if they had died. 18. And
Mattu began to run towards Gwana and the three homos
who were making noise. 19. And immediately, the three
homos fell to the earth, kneeling down and begging for their
lives. For they feared the thing which they saw, thinking that
the five homos whom Mattu touched with the cowries had
died. 20. And Gwana was more afraid than the other three.
And he shouted the blood of Zeusus continually as Mattu
drew closer to him, laughing mischievously. 21. And when
Mattu brought the cowries close to his forehead to touch his
head with it, he fainted and fell down before Mattu. 22. And
all they who saw what had happened began to laugh when
the five homos who fell down as if they had died began to
rise to their feet. 23. And Mattu said, I have won the trick
game which myself and Gwana made. And when Gwana
awoke from his unconsciousness, he knew that he had been
tricked. 24. And all his life, he hated the foreigners. And he
lived a quiet life, for the disappointment which he was
confronted with in the name of Zeusus Krista was too great
for him.

bid4rich:



What you posted above is nothing but an epistle. It makes no sense at all, disjointed and lack bearing of take-home knowledge. That is how someone without Christ writes. You can imagine if all you wrote is inspired by the Spirit of the Living God, you would have make many sense.

Now, you lied again by saying you shout Jesus and nothing happened. You see, the God I serve is a noble and lovely God, full of passion and mercy. You have been given grace and that same grace is sustaining you till now. I will say to you to reconsider your ways.

There is no other way except the way of our Lord Jesus Christ. One day, you will be face to face with Him to give account of how you spent your life. Then, you will remember this day that I told you of Him.

Its never too late
Repent!!!
He is knocking at the door of your heart. Open to Him and accept His gift of eternal life.

I shouted the name jesus 3 times and nothing happened. How else should I do it? How I wish we are together while I was shouting it. What about if I type Jesus here 3 times with Capital letters, will something happen as you claim? Waiting for your response to that I can do it. You know I love practicals instead of noise, just as Mattu in the history you read above.

bid4rich:


Haahahahahahahahahahaha

You make me laugh. Ok otem or atum, i dnt care. They are nothing. My Jesus is real and more than real but otem and atum are nothing but graven image.

To clear your doubt, before your next post, shout the name of Jesus 3 times and see what happen next. Its a challenge, I bet you will not

I have done it. Nothing happened. You can also try it yourself, nothing will happen. But something can happen only if you shout the name in your dream. Just the same way something will happen in the dreams if you shout the name of any biscuit, or any chinchin in a dream, so far you believe in them. But dreams are different from reality. See similar situation from the DOCTUFOS OF TRUTH.

How I wish you know the meaning of peace. You could as well tell me that the name devil connote peace. See my dear, you know nothing about the realm of the spirit. How I wish you could see the battle over your soul, you could have submitted to the real meaning of TRUTH.
Truth cannot be manipulated
Truth cannot be improved upon
Truth cannot be killed

Jesus says, I am The Way,The TRUTH and The Life and He resurrected. Hallelujah. You see, truth is not 'a fact' fact is misleading, fact can be logical, fact can sometimes be destructive if its not fully grounded, but Truth is constant.

My dear Jesus is calling on you for repentance. He died for you. He loves you. Shalom

Jesus isn't real, it is an invention of Eusebius by using the story of Faulkin(Zeusus Krishna) who was on earth millions of years back in the periods of the hominids and neanderthals. He was a deceiver back in those days, and when Eusebius went into meditation, he got inspired to write about that Zeusus Krishna/Krista as if he existed in our own period of the homo sapiens.

You can't use the name of a fictional character like jesus to achieve anything upon the enlightened like myself. May your soul seek freedom from the bondage of Eusebius the writer of your belief.

I AM OTEM, THE SON OF ATUM. I HAVE COME TO DELIVER THE WORLD FROM THE BONDAGE OF FEAR AND RELIGION. Have you discovered your own role in the GODSHIP?

CHAPTER FORTY-ONE
1. Now Umbona began to practise greater magic than his uncle. And he said to the homos, I shall make for you wells of water on dry ground without digging the ground. And he hypnotised the homos so that they could go to sleep.
2. Now while they began to awake from their sleeps, Umbona had placed pots filled with water everywhere around them. Now the homos saw the waterpots as well water. For such was their thoughts before they fell asleep.
3. For they awoke like one who was drunk, having smelled the power which Umbona blew at them to make them weak and sleepy.
4. Now before the homos could awake to total consciousness, Umbona had taken away all the pots of water. And they all began to say that Umbona made wells of water on the dry ground within a short period of time.
5. Now Umbona did many other feats of magia which even his uncle could not do. And the homos of the land loved him greatly.
7. And they brought sacrifices of gold and goats and ram to him. And he fed fat upon the gifts of the people. And many said, we need no more god, for we have found Umbona a god. And we shall worship him.
8. Umbona also used the rainbow to cure the diseases of the people. For he focussed on the colours and meditated while he held the palms of the sick people in his hands. And the homos said that they felt something passing into their bodies from the hands of Umbona.
9. Now Mulaoli said, I have sworn not to destroy Umbona by my own hands because of the wife of Umbona who is my daughter. But I shall incite the people against him. And he shall be killed.
10. Now Mulaoli secretly began to pay little herbalists and priests. And they consulted together to send bad energies to him. Now it was in the days when Umbona was depressed, because he could not satisfy his wife Salima on bed.
11. And Umbona had begun to get drunk such that he did no more spiritual feats before the people. But he alone remained, thinking too much about his problem.
12. And he would have taken his own life, but he considered Salima who loved him so much.
13. Now Umbona could not connect with the spiritual world, neither could he use the energies of the sun again because of his negative emotions.
14. Now the herbalists and priests sent bad energies to him, which they had extracted from the sun at the scattering of its rays with their eyelids.
15. Now while Umbona slept, they appeared to him in form of spirits and said, come to us Umbona and we shall take away the burdens of your mind.
16. Now Umbona listened to them and went closer. And they gave him a drum, saying, beat it and you shall have solutions to your problems. Now Umbona exerted all his spiritual energies upon the beating of the drum.
17. And when he awoke from his sleep, he was very weak.
18. And the homos came to him physically and held him tight. And he could not make any deceptive illusions before them. And Umbona said to them, promise me that you shall not kill me by your own hands.
19. For even I myself want to take my own life by myself. Now the homos swore to him that they shall not touch him. For they had thought that they would take him to Mulaoli to kill him by himself.
20. Now when they had taken him to Mulaoli, he said to them, kill Umbona, but the homos said, we cannot kill him, for we have sworn by the gods that his death shall not be from our own hands.
21. And Mulaoli said, you are fo*ls, for he has made me swear also that I shall not kill him. For that was the reason why I have said that you should kill him.
22. Now Umbona said, we have fo*led one another. For I make you all swear not to kill me by your own hands and you have also made me lose all my spiritual strength. Now I have wished for death all the time.
23. Now it shall do you good to kill me, for I want death more than life.
24. Take your dagger and cut me by the throat. For the head should be taken away from the rest of my body. Let my body be left in this place and let it not be moved, for it is forbidden.
25. So the herbalists and priests cut off the head of Umbona and buried it within his shrine. But his body was left in the shrine of Mulaoli, according to the saying of Umbona.
26. And Mulaoli left the shrine to make another one. And the shrine collapsed after the body of Umbona had rotten. And when many heard it, they said that Umbona has risen and his spirit has brought down the shrine.
27. And so many came from all surrounding lands; from Kirima and from Njaro; to hear from Salima and worship Umbona as their god . And the homos who worship Umbona in his lifetime were less when compared to those who worship him while he was dead.
28. And they said among themselves, Umbona shall return again to physically rule upon the whole land.
29. And months became years and years became centuries and Umbona did not return physically, but his worshippers continued to keep up the hope of his return.
