you are disgracing your teachers if this is the conclusion you arrived at after reading this post.

doing business with indigenous people where you are a stranger is very risky.. They will rip you especially if they don't have the fear of God

Ppl dat don't read before commenting are already embarrassing their teachers on this thread. The dispute is over a building and and it was stated in the last paragraph

Kobojunkie:
1. You mean worship your gods of men, right?

2. And you think it is OK when folks worship football stars and musicians hence the reason why you feel you are equally sanctioned in your worship of your gods of men whom you hide behind the many mentions of God, right?

Taar, take your opinion to where it's needed. Let us worship our heroes in peace

Kobojunkie:
You folks and your worship of men will never cease.

This man and others like him are men of religion who built for themselves empires of men using the name of God. Yonggi Cho never knew God nor Jesus Christ and this apparent from his fruits.

allow us worship our heros in peace na. Its funny how the same people who worship football stars and musicians start crying when men of God are being celebrated

Seun:
Fellow Nairalanders,

We have noticed the use of ethnic slurs and other derogatory names by a small but persistent group of political actors and trolls.

This practice of derogatory name-calling adds no value to the forum. It's bad for our mental health, our harmony as a community, and the reputation of Nairaland. It's simply toxic. It's absence and the absence of the people who use those slurs will not be missed.

Therefore I have decided to ban the practice entirely. I have instructed dominique, mukina2, Lalasticlala and Mynd44 to ban anyone who uses an ethnic slur or derogatory name on Nairaland. The antispam bot will also contribute to the effort. Please report any case that you see.

they are scammers. Those sharing testimonies here are part of the worse part of it is that they are very heartless. While a family is running from pillar to post to save a member with a terminal sickness, they leverage on that desperation to milk the family. They have other products aside the stemcell. They will deceive you to buy as much as possible. Fell victim to them few months ago while helping a uncle who has kidney issue.

Most men due their hair to hide the fact that they're aging and to attract women. A man of God shouldn't be concerned about his looks. He ought to keep it 100% spiritual.

Congratulations sir. May God give u all you need to bring her up to be the woman she was created to be

Brokay2908:
Have a wonderful week ahead.

wishing you and everyone on this thread same

MuttleyLaff:
Wisdom, has to do with making right and correct decisions.
Children with good sense of judgement who rightly divide the word of God, are the children of Wisdom

It is wayward children, as unashamedly being displayed so far on this thread, that dont heed the warning whistle

Some make a Pharisee and Sadducee look tamed when compared to them

God bless you for this humble, unpretentious and honest post

look through this thread with an open mind and be the judge of who has been cooing like a child. Wat point are u even trying to make? Because u had fake experience then that of every other person had to be fake too? U even accused Gods generals I mentioned as being possessed by an Antichrist spirit. Dis ur attitude can never even win u a single soul to Gods kingdom. U have a lot of growing up to do sir. Thank you. I mean no offense

Wisdom is justified of her children

Hier:
You are getting it mixed up, I am talking about speaking in tongue as a prayer. I have quoted two verse that referenced speaking in tongue as a prayer, you are still clinging to it being a language. Well, like I told Muttlelaf, I don't think it would be wise forging ahead on this topic, yea, I think this is how far we can go on the subject. Shalom

PS: I am not saying speaking in tongue can't be used as a means of reaching out to those with other language, what I'm saying is, I think I get it now, cause it seem you've not spoken in tongues before, well, if that's the point, I think your case is understandable and I might have to apologize based on your limited Knowledge or lack of experience, you know I have discovered those who doesn't speak in tongues always attack speaking in tongues and I believe that's exactly the case here.

u r correct. Please sir, resist the urge to reply them. Some cycles do not even believe in being born again and they have a lot of theories around it too, what many of these people go and learn in seminarie is how to argue without edifying anyone and its hopeless engaging them in any debate. The kingdom of God is not in word but in power. The most important thing is to be effective in carrying out the great commission and if they think they are winning souls without speaking in tongues, they should excuse those of us that are also winning with speaking in tongues. Like I talked earlier, the spirit of God will not strive with man and the Bible also said the servant of God must not strive. Anywhere u take the gospel to, if it is rejected u leave and shake d dust off ur feet. This was what Jesus told his disciples and Jesus also practiced it wen he was rejected in Samaria. So if someone is stubbornly on a mission to derail this thread, we can be certain such an individual isn't working for our Lord. Man of God please avoid them and let's help those who are sincere here

Mokenano:
I started masturbating July 2017, tho I enjoyed it the first time but it keeps going on and on to the extent that I can't do without masturbating at least 4 times a day. I started doing things I don't do before, anytime I see a girl, the first thing that comes to my mind is her unclothedness and how she's gonna look down there.

Then I started masturbating with naked pictures in my mind, later with nude pictures, later Nude Gif images and now I watch porn . I'm not happy with this and I don't know how to stop it.

I'm thinking of telling this friend of mine Vivian, she preaches the word of God to me and pray with me as well maybe she can pray for me but I'm scared she might see me as a bad guy and start avoiding me.

Nairalanders please help me, I'm just 20yrs old.

give ur life to Christ and receive the baptism of the Holy spirit

ikechizoba:
Yes,l came across it in the bible,the thing is that l feel empty,even b4 l started speaking in tongues, l had an encounter with God ,during a night vigil at the holy mountain in enugu,that made me experience, for the 1st time,the touch of the holy spirit, the next day after that encounter, l started having this excruciating pain on my palms,at the spot where Jesus was nailed to the cross. l became alarmed because l couldn't see any wound but the pains were there. it continued the next day,l couldn't bear it,l had to open up to my spiritual director then and he said it was the manifestation of the gift of healing, l told him l wanted the pains to go,cos it was becoming unbearable, and he prayed for me,and l was relieved of the pains the next day,yet l felt empty.
Now ,speaking in tongues, l still feel empty. why? is my spirit rejecting this gifts because l am still a baby in terms of being spiritual, and l don't know how to grow in them,instead of being delighted, l feel scared and unworthy,like l am not supposed to experience them.l really need direction

It is called a gift because it is a gift and u need to understand that. We would never have been able to receive it if we had to be qualified for it just like salvation, it is a free gift of God. U experienced the second level of the anointing of God which affects thebody and it is usually an anointing that comes on us to help other persons apart from ourselves and dat is y u aint feeliing happy cos the joy comes in fulfilling our divine purpose.What you should do is get familiar with the operations of this gift in your private prayer, ask the Holy spirit to teach you about the gift he gave you and he will start guiding you. The Holy Spirit trains in private before he sends you out. Wen u see opportunity to pray for a sick person, try using the hand to pray for the person as our gifts gets sharpened with practice. Don't be in a hurry to see results, just keep on praying in the spirit with more focus henceforth.

ikechizoba:
Speaking in tongues has taken over my prayer life,l dread praying in public cos once l open my mouth,it keeps pouring out,even when l stopped praying for a long time,and felt the holy spirit has left me,the moment l decide to pray,it comes up after few minutes of prayer,it comes with a surge and movement l can't control,l always find myself moving in different direction,style while speaking in tongues without control,sometimes l moan ,more like singing what l don't know,l always feel dizzy and sick after such section,it take me extra effort to stop praying cos l don't understand what l say or do, but the bitter part is that l don't feel fulfilled because l feel l wasn't given the opportunity to say what l have in mind,l feel so unsure .

permit me to add to what other brethren have said as I perceive this amongst other sincere questions are part of the reasons God laid it in the heart of the OP to create this thread.
Everything in our Christian work requires faith including speaking in tongues. The Holy spirit knows what u need per time .the Bible says we do not know how to pray as we ought but the Spirit helps our infirmity by interceding for us. Just picture it this way, knowledge in the sense realm is very limited. You may think ur problem is just a little headache whereas it is a malaria. Praying in ur knowledge is like taking paracetamol, praying in the spirit is taking an antimalaria. Holy Spirit knows your need and ur divine purpose too according to Gods design and he helps u pray accurate prayer. When u r praying in tongues, don't feel cheated, instead picture ursef as being helped and carried by ur heavenly father. You can't pray in tongues consistently and remain the same. All u think u need to pray for and those u don't even know DAT are ahead of u are covered during ur prayer time with the Most High God

Please brethren let's be sensitive and simply avoid those who are simply here to argue and derail our purpose here. We are children of the most high God and what we are doing here is a threat to d kingdom of darkness.

Brokay2908:
Okay then. Let's make it 8pm-8:30pm for all of us.

okay

Brokay2908:
The WhatsApp group "Interceding in Tongues" has been created. You can click on this link to join.


(the dots should be changed to . )
chat dot whatsapp dot com/invite/FQ09KbMZWvLImSULQSkcR5

So, we have both 6pm and 8pm. We will use the two if we can't adopt one for now. I can make myself available for both, so let's make it a date with the Holy Spirit together on those hours: 6pm-6:30pm and 8pm-8:30pm today, Tuesday.

This is open also to those who may not yet be speaking in tongues but believe in it and desire to, to join us in faith. These are things we do to encourage one another's faith and uplift one another spiritually. This is also part of worshiping God in spirit and in truth. We do not only know this on written pages of the Bible but we act on it and power is surely released in such ACTions of faith. No wonder the book of ACTS is a power-packed account of the ACTors of faith. The devil too was in panic when he saw Christians begining to do something productive with their faith. And his devices include looking for how to waste their precious time and energy engaging in rancorous, fruitless and endless debates. But we know better.

anytime is OK by me too

yinkbell:
Thanks bro. Christians with thIs wonderful gift slip back when they engage in praying in the Spirit (tongues) for some times. This is a lifetime gift to be engaged in. Keneth hagin's book and David youngi cho's book have opened my eyes a lot to this wonderful gift. now let's Start sharing our experiences as we engaged in the prayer language.... PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT.

its a great gift brother. Virtually all the God's generals in the outgoing generation attests to it. Ken Hagin, Reinhard bonke, Benny hinn, oral Roberts. Men who were influential in winning souls and spreading revival fire. There is a revival around the corner and dat is why God is stirring us up to pray.
By the way, do you guys know that tongues is not a new thing to the Jews? It is recorded in the Jewish Talmud that the high priest spoke in tongues once in a year during the feast of atonement when he enters into the holy of holies he is given a supernatural language to communicate accurately with God wch dey called the tongue of God but immediately he steps out of the holy of holies after the yearly atonement, he loses the ability till the coming year again.. Imagine how precious it was to them at dat time, it is a gift we should use more earnestly.

Brokay2908:
For those of us who are in for this, let's have our first joint tongue session on Tuesday. Let's pick a 30 mins period between 4pm and 8pm. If that's not convenient, let's suggest another time/day.

6pm is cool

You are always quick to spot mistakes cos that is what you actually look for, however,we know the Spirit of God doesn't strive.
You must be joking if you think u can drag us down to dat level of urs
If something is pushing u to derail this thread it definitely isn't the spirit of God. James 3

13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.

14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.

15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. note

16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. note

17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. note

18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

¹²“I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.
¹³“But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth;
for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak;
and He will disclose to you what is to come
- John 16:12-13

For Jews demand miraculous signs (i.e. ask for signs)
and Greeks ask for wisdom (i.e. philiosophy)
- 1 Corinthians 1:22

So you see that speaking in tongues is a sign, not for believers, but for unbelievers.
Prophecy, however, is for the benefit of believers, not unbelievers.
- 1 Corinthians 14:22

Oyeludef and Brokay2908, the primary purpose for speaking in tongues, was/is not, for use as a talisman,
neither to be used, as quicker or easier mystical shortcuts to prayers or worship
Nor is it's purpose, to be used as, a form of means to confuse the devil or demons from understanding whats been prayed

For all the 3 recorded times, speaking in other tongues, occurred in the bible,
it is visibly noted that, it happened each time, for the benefit of unbelieving Jews

For any that might have been misinformed, it is a well documented truth, as seen in 1 Corinthians 14:22 above
that speaking in tongues is not for believers, rather it is used as a sign for unbelievers (i.e. 1 Corinthians 1:22a)

Old habits die hard, I know that
That's why you are still sticking to innuendoes. Right?

I knew you werent standing on firm foundation when you typed that there were no unbelievers in the other two references of the three recorded occasions of speaking in tongues
You can squirm as much as you like over the foolery.
Thats what it is, it's nothing else.

In Paul's style, I ask.
Who has bewitched you?

You have every legitimate reason to type that there is a fake
because the way speaking in tongues is being done today
as in, church folk, 21st century believers uttering unintelligible words is bable, confused noise made by a number of voices
This is not speaking in tongues (i.e. not speaking in a foreign language) but is mere babbling by unintelligible utterraces

It is the end time deception of the demonic spirit in Rev 16:13-14, symbolised as three unclean spirits that looked like frogs
And how do frogs catch their prey?
Yes, using tongues to snare believers with their false speaking in tongues deception

To speak in tongues, means audibly saying something out
or make sounds with your voice to express your thoughts and feelings in a structured, conventional, intelligible and understandable way

Speak in tongues is language (i.e. tongues of man=human language)
and has the same meaning with mother tongue, native tongue, dialect, vernacular etcetera
For example, you can speak in vernacular, can speak in your local dialect, might speak in a native tongue or speak in your mother tongue

There is a time and a place for everything.
Also there is always a reason for everything that happens or why it does not happen

Things do happen for a reason and what took place in Acts Chapter 2 happened importantly because of Acts 2:5
Place Acts 2:5 close together with Matthew 10:5-6, Matthew 15:24, Romans 1:16, especially for a comparison or contrast effect

1 Corinthians 14:22 confirms that, what took place in Acts Chapter 2, was for the benefit of any unbelieving Jews at Acts 2:5
The Jews (i.e. all adult Jewish men) thousands of them from different nations dispersed to or from where they are scattered to, would travel to Jerusalem for this pilgrim festival called Feast of Weeks or Pentecost to celebrate the giving of the Law to Moses at Mount Sinai

What took place in Acts Chapter 2, was for the benefit of the lot in Acts 2:5 and nothing to do for and/or with the lot in John 10:16

Yes, absolutely, it was apart from being a sign, was for the benefit of the unbelieving lost tribe of Israel pilgrim to the festival, who incidentally were always at the top of Jesus' list of priorities

What took place in Acts 2, was the Apostles, were actually speaking in the individual languages or dialects of the visiting Jews
and each of the pilgrim Jews present, without need of interpretation, heard and understood the preaching.

⁵But there were men dwelling in Jerusalem who were worshipers of God, Jews from every nation under Heaven.
⁶And when that noise occurred, the entire populace gathered and was agitated,
because each one of them heard that they were speaking in their dialects
⁷And they were all marveling and were amazed as they were saying, each to the other,
"Are not all these who are speaking Galileans?"*
⁸"How are we hearing, everyone, his own dialect in which we were born?"
- Acts 2:5-8

Notice the disciples were speaking recognisable spoken words, and the speech or manner of speaking was understandable
The dialects heard spoken of the day were:
1) those of the Parthians and Medes and Elanites,
2) people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, the province of Asia,
3) people Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya around Cyrene,
and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
4) Cretans, and Arabs

The other two subsequent recorded ocassions of speaking in tongues, happened, again, for the benefits of unbelieving Jews

The geniune speaking in tongue, is so infrequent now because it's original and primary purpose
was for the benefit of the unbelieving lost sheep of Israel at Acts 2:5
and elsewhere before the gift got passed down to the church

oyeludef you're typing about fake, well you havent seen/heard anything yet,
you will fall off the chair, if you are shown social media ''praying in tongues'' typed on Facebook

Rev 16:13-14, is real and is here already
It is the end time deception of the demonic spirit in Rev 16:13-14,
symbolised as three unclean spirits that looked like frogs
And how do frogs catch their prey?
Yes, using tongues to snare believers with their false speaking in tongues deception, working miracles with false tongues

Your idea of the evidence of receiving the baptism of Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues.
To you, an absence of speaking of tongues equates to not yet baptised in the Holy Ghost

My brother this constant name-dropping is increasingly becoming pitiful
You've name dropped Kenneth E. Hagin, name dropped Myles Munroe,
who you going to mention next after Smith Wigglesworth?

If you must know, I got cured of my stammering without any drama.
Its amazing the power of knowledge, what the benefits of knowing all to know, can do about stammering.

SMH. My brother you're still trawling YouTube seeking endorsement and/or relevance from half-baked videoes
What a truck load of false teachings stemmed from being ill-informed in that video
At the 27:44 mark, talked about angels liked the girls on earth, angels fornicating with women on earth. Bwahahaha ha. SMH.

Did you hear him earlier, at the video's 24:15 mark, saying Jesus spoke in tongues?
In his confusion, he first said, Jesus spoke in tongue by saying "Mene, Mene, Tekel, and Parsin"
then changed it, correctly to "Eli Eli lama sabachthani"

The thing is "Eli Eli lama sabachthani" is Aramaic
Oyeludef, watch this, Most people' last words are very profound, and Jesus' is no exception to this.
Jesus as a dying man, hung on a cross, uttered seven famous dying last words

1) Luke 23:34 - Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.
2) Luke 23:43 - Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.
3) John 19:26-27 - Woman, behold your son. Son Behold your mother.
4) Matthew 27:46 & Mark 15:34 - My God, My God, (this bit I've blanked out, to reveal more on it, later)
5) John 19:28 - I thirst.
6) John 19:30 - It is finished (or "It is accomplished'')
7) Luke 23:46 - Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.

The first of the last four words, (i.e. famous words #4)
were said, for the benefit of the disciples, which is why it was spoken in Aramaic (e.g. "Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani'')
It wasnt spoken in an unknown tongue, it for crying out loud, was spoken in Aramaic.

Jesus, for the benefit of the disciples, uttered in Aramaic the purpose of His mission/assignment
(i.e. the reason all those things were happening, the reason why He was created or the reason why He came to exist)
He then, after declaring that the purpose (i.e. the process for salvation) is finished or accomplished,
excused Himself with the "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit" last word

Jesus chose His word very carefully and didnt speak impetuously when He used "Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani"
Jesus, actually was paraphrasing, the beginning of Psalm 22 (i.e. Psalm 22:1),
just like He paraphrased the end of Psalm 22 (i.e Psalm 22:31)

"On the day of Pentecost, pilgrims who have travelled from far and wide to Jersalem
and who happened to be unbelieving Jews,
it was these pilgrims/unbelieving Jews that heard the gospel in their dialect and/or language

By the way, the number 120 is a biblical symbolic number meaning waiting
and that's the significance of having 120 disciples in the upper room.
The 120 disciples symbolically were waiting until the day of Pentecost when all Israelites
or all the adult Jewish men would come to Jerusalem
from wherever they were living to personally be in attendance for the Pentecost festival."
- Muttleylaff on 12:49pm On Oct 06

I had in one of my earlier posts, as reproduced above here,
talked about the symbolic meaning of the figure, 120, that was the number of disciples present in the upper room,
but notice, how at the 29:08 video mark, he butchered the symbolic meaning of the 120 disciples, that were waiting in the upper room

You by now, have gotten to know me, as one, to voraciously devour everything on the matter you type here, whether post, comment or video

I make it a point of duty, to subject everything you type here, whether post, comment or video, to the Berean effect
