enilove:do you realize that christianity is the heaven the bible was referring to,Meaning all christians are already in heaven irrespective of who they are, and all non christians are already in hell? We are saved by faith and not by works. The faith you practice is the criteria, jesus says i am the way, mohammed or founder of any other faith apart from the christian faith can never be the way. |
ishop David Oyedepo, founder of Living Faith Church Wordwide, is said to flock over 50, 000, 000 members around the world. But it is strange that the highly revered “Man of God” has not successfully insulated himself from controversies, as Germany’s public international broadcaster, Deutsche Welle (DW), has literally demystified and deconstructed him. Deutsche Well, for instance, questioned Oyedepo’s prosperity messages and described it as “hypnotising”. “The prosperity gospel by David Oyedepo sounds hypnotising,” it alleged on its official website on Tuesday. In the report, it was alleged that “many more listen to Oyedepo outside this mega-church, those who did not get a seat inside. They raise their hands towards the sky in devotion, in hopes their prayers will be heard. Oyedepo is just one of many pastors in Nigeria who promise positive change.” DW also alleged that Oyedepo manipulates his gullible followers with his sermon, adding that “The pastor, who calls himself a bishop, knows what people in Nigeria need the most: stability and jobs. “His net worth is estimated to be $150 million (€128 million). Many of his followers want to be like him. They yearn for prosperity in the country that has the highest number of people living in extreme poverty worldwide. DW alleges: “Nigeria, unstable as the violent campaign by jihadist militants Boko Haram has been raging for almost a decade, has experienced an economic recession in recent years. The government promises change, but the country is plagued by mismanagement and massive corruption. It was during this period that the number of Pentecostal churches began to increase. “There are at least 500 in Nigeria, some of them with branches worldwide. Nigerians turn to faith as their trust in the government wanes.”

Ranchhoddas:you have analysed it well, this thing you have said is exactly what has happened. Nevertheless, daddy freeze has been saying the truth about these pastors irrespective of the damn consequence. This shows that every situation we find ourselves bad or good neither comes from God or satan, It is the system on ground that determines our fate. If the system is bad then daddy freeze will begin to see misfortune when we begin to fight the bad system on ground. This misfortune will last until a reasonable number of people including his employees becomes aware of the bad system enough to join him in the fight. It happens to Jesus too in bible days |
HigherEd:but atleast you have agreed at last that tithing is imperfect like your pastors? |
![]() Thank God people are gradually knowing the truth, there is nothing hidden under the sun that must not come to reveal itself one day. GOD BLESS PASTOR ABEL DAMINA |
Is tithing part of christianity? The answer is capital NO! i don't know what this ashimolowo man is talking |
Hmmm! A typical trait of nigerian "i dont care" politians |
LLSAINT:oya go killer her for doing that now ![]() |
This business is not fully incorporated perhaps hiding from CAC deep inside that compound |
I noticed with keen interest how these neigbours and good friends of ours opposite my apartment across the street, how they all appear very calm every sundays they comes out of their daddy's car and walk slowly and exausted as they walk into their house with their goregeous dressings. Its seems to me they went to church to charge their battery which must be intoxicating for a little while, and they are back at home now looking very calm. I'm just hoping that this charge or intoxication in them will last, because as usual, by 4:pm of this same sabbath day, they will be back to themselves again, smoking all manner of whatever and inviting all manner of girls to the house when their daddy is gone. |
Do you believe in rapture or are you a muslim believing that there are 10 virgins waiting for you in paradise? You are free to share the reasons of your belief, but this is my take on this: RELIGION AND MYSTERIES One of the chracteristics of religion is having the people who believe in the particular religion putting their hope on mysteries at the same time, ignoring or not seeing the earthly or physical realities or benefits which such believes have promised to bring to them, that they are already here on this earth. For instance, rapture or end time are all mysteries associated with christian teachings. But many christians have hoped for rapture and end time to come in such a way that, they are careless of their current lives and trends. Infact, many have lost valuable goods waiting for that day to come. Now, that alone is a demerit. But contrary to such believes of rapture and heaven in the mysteries, the bible made us to understand that christ has unlocked the keys of God's kingdom here on earth and has given it to as many that believes in him. Right now, as may that believes in christ are living on this earth forever(dont be deceived by death). Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: What are the advantages of this? We can live and enjoy our lives on this earth for free, yes for free, simple. The misconception is that, a lot of christian thinks that God's kingdom or heaven is coming sometime in the nearest future but meanwhile, the bible is saying it is now. WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES OF BELIEVING IN MYSTERIES OR RAPTURE? 1. It will put you to perpertual fear and make you lose your self-estime unconsciously. 2. unconsciously, you will find yourself becoming a religious person going to church now and then. 3. You will find yourself being enslaved to people having similar beliefs (example your pastor or daddy GO) 4. You may find yourself being a mediocre, not putting all your mind to work hard and achieve something on this earth, because you are hoping on some resources in the mysteries. Also, some muslims believe that when they attack infidels in this current physical life, there are 10 virgins waiting for them in the mystery when they die. That is another demerit of religion . Atheism is religion on its own don't be deceived. weather you like it or not,the moment you believe in something you are already into religion, it comes from the mind. Atheism teaches that God do not exist, nothing bad about that. But the moment you find yourself as an atheist attacking other peoples religion or beliefs without having a full knowledge of what their holy books teaches then you are fightíng mysteries, you will never make sense to yourself and trust me, you are not enjoying your life like that. HOW TO ENJOY YOUR LIFE IRRESPECTIVE OF WHAT RELIGION YOU BELIEVE 1. Show respect to your belief and the beliefs of other people. Don't bash people! Rather teach them what you think is right if they care to listen 2. Educate yourself on the truth. If you are a christian have a full understanding of the bible. 3. Where you do not know, don't jump to argue or do beyond yourself ( like kiss daniel will sing peperimpe). 4. Be responsible to your spouse or family 5. Avoid anything sinful. 6. Have fun with friends, visit tourist attractions and have some alcohol( please drink responsibly) |
Please tattoo or tribal marks cannot stop anyone from going to heaven o. Adeboye, olukoya, oyedepo, kumuyi, etc. all have tribal marks not different from tatoo. Will you now say that these people will go to hell fire? |
Forget it. They don't have any scripture |
LLSAINT:and you think christianity should follow that kinda rubbish footsteps of islam killing people unjudiciously? |
wristbangle:what is the content of the rubbish they wrote anyway ![]() |
According to a report by Sahara Reporters, Ilyasu climbed a mast with the approval number AB0099 belonging to Airtel Nigeria, located a few metres away from the Presidential Villa on Wednesday, September 12, 2018. Before he climbed the mast, he had distributed a flyer to explain his grievances, saying that he was ready to sacrifice his life for the country to get better. "I am on hunger strike to protest and register my grievances on the condition of the country; I will remain here for the next seven days and I do not mind if I die here. "If my dying on this mast will change the economy of this country, then I choose to die for others to live a good life," he said on Wednesday. Despite the efforts of security officials to get him down the mast, Ilyasu vowed not to descend until President Buhari resigned from the office and dropped his second term ambition. However, 24 hours after he climbed the mast, Ilyasu descended from it at 11:25am on Thursday, September 13, after he reached an agreement with security officials to allow him talk to the media. Buhari does not deserve 2nd term - Ilyasu Ilyasu said he embarked on the protest to fight against presidential impunity and the willingness of Nigerians to accept President Buhari's misrule. He said Buhari does not deserve another four years in office and should easily be replaced by one of his oponents in the 2019 presidential election. He said, "My name is Nura Ilyasu. I am 28 years old. What I did is within the purview of the law. My human right is to protest peacefully and I never threatened my life or any other person "What we are going through in this country is not from God. Some microscopic-view individuals hijacked all that God endowed Nigeria with for decent life, and we can't continue like this. "I climbed up for seven days hunger strike to protest the incompetence and cluelessness, to protest presidential impunity and general docility displayed by the masses. We can't continue like this. "Other competent candidates are there; even Saraki, Atiku, Kwankwaso, Tambuwal, Dankwambo and others. At least one of these (men) will make a good President. "I don't believe General Buhari deserves another four-year term in Nigeria because the pervasive hunger and poverty in Nigeria is inexplicable." Ilyasu assured that he does not suffer from any sort of mental disorder as has been suggested to have been the cause of his protest action. He was later taken away by security officials.

Daddy Freeze has weighed in on the controversial photo of Beverly Osu wearing a religious habit and smoking cigarette at the same time. He also used the opportunity to criticize men of God who collect tithe from poor people. In a video shared online, the OAP says he sees nothing wrong with Beverly’s photo. He added that the problem with Christianity isn’t with the people who brought it to us but the people it was handed over to because it is now being abused. Sharing the video, he wrote: “Whoever tuned our moral compass in this country did a terrible job. This Beverly Osu picture really got me thinking. We are so visual in this part of the world that we seem to worry more about the branding and image of Christianity than its essence. “Nigeria, recalibrate your moral compass! If you think a pastor in the poverty capital of the world owning a private jet is morally right, while Beverly Osu smoking a cigarette with a rosary in her hand is wrong then you have a huuuuge problem.” In another post, he shared a photo of Beverly in the Catholic nuns gear with a rosary in one hand and cigarette in the other. A puff of smoke billows out of her mouth as she stares into space. Though some people called out Beverly for abusing the religious wear, Freeze didn’t agree that she did anything wrong and he wrote: “I don’t understand the problem people have with this @beverly_osu post…..No be cloth she wear? No be tailor sew am? Was this attire invented by Jesus and his disciples or by religion? “If it was invented by Jesus, then I have a huge problem with it. However, if it was invented by religion then I don’t understand what the fuss is….. Maybe someone should educate me. “By the way, I know a lot of nuns and priests who smoke.” View this post on Instagram Whoever tuned our moral compass in this country did a terrible job. – This Beverly Osu picture really got me thinking. – We are so visual in this part of the world that we seem to worry more about the branding and image of Christianity than its essence. – Nigeria, recalibrate your moral compass!

Op, you didnt indicate why a wife should deny her husband of sex, is she not enjoying the sex too? Except the man is not making the sex enjoyable to the woman i see no reason why she should deny the man |
He was truly a great man |
Story for the gods |
kimco:it really do not matter what name you choose to call him whether yeshua or Jesus, what matters is that anyone who calls upon his name(whatever name you choose to give him) shall be saved. His name have power to save anyone from death. The power was not meant to do anything else. Remember, if you have been following the story from the bible Adam and Eve sinned and death came to mankind, but he is here to restore life to anyone who calls his name today and that restoration is strictly a spiritual gift as God is a spirit. This means that, the power was not meant for any physical show. That's why you will never see any physical miracle that the name of Jesus will do today (even though there were miracles recorded in bible days). If you see any miracle today, it is occasional and very uncommon for obvious reasons known to God alone. Otherwise no miracles No powers to show Just faith only That's all |
DeSepiero:is this all you can say? ![]() Just trash, no premises ![]() In that case, your first comment was the biggest trash indicating your state of health . Foolish people jump to comment on what they don't understand. Go and look for something else to do my friend |
DeSepiero:sex cells are physical God is a spirit! The promise of eternal life is a spiritual gift, you cannot use your physical senses or sex cells to determine whether spirits do exist or not, so back off. |
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy has been accused of faking miracles in South Africa. According to a report, some church members have accused the renowned pastor of hiring people to pretend to be sick and disabled. These actors are then healed during his television shows and public prayer meetings. The report quoted a member of the church saying; “I was offered R10,000 to rehearse and pretend to be in a wheelchair three weeks before the all-night prayer called Night of Bliss at the Johannesburg Stadium,” “The pastor told me that they were looking for people to work for the church. He said that I was going to sit in a wheelchair and be wheeled around while pretending to be physically ill. I would then stand up and walk as soon as Pastor Chris stopped praying for me. “Even children who are healthy are whisked around in wheelchairs. Some use crutches. “Everyone is allocated a person who tells the congregation about your background, your specific illness and suffering. “The pastor then raises his hands and places them maybe on your legs if you cannot walk, and a few seconds later you get up and walk around the room,” The source also claimed he called the church to turn down their offer. “I just told myself that using the word of God to lie to desperate people is immoral, so I refused to take up their offer.” http://allnews.uodoo.com/en-ng/detail/35631122249205?uc_param_opt=list_auto&app=hchannel_id=10069901&entry1=card&entry2=more&entry=browser

chiommy123:don't be scared of demons! They only exist in the spiritual rhelm like their master the devil. Ever since christ resurrected approx. 2000 years ago they do not have any power to do any physical harm in this physical world anymore, not even Satan himself. Infact all powers have been given to us.(not spiritual powers o). The power to go ahead and do what is right for ourselves. Now, if we fail to do what is right, that is when failures comes, not the devil or demons are causing the failures but our inability to think and understand and solve simple physical problems. So, all these ones churches are telling you people that your failure to succeed is as a result of demons or Satan, they are telling you people big lies. ![]() Why Christians are better is cos the word of God has prepared us with the weapons of warfare which are not carnalgo and read it again and know what the warfare is all about. It is not a spiritual war. Christ has already defeated every spirit for your sake. and has also assured us of our victory in Christ Jesus.this is exactly the truth! Mark the word "in christ jesus" The victory is not by your physical power of casting and binding prayer. ; What are we victorious over,through christ? We are victorious over spirits not this physical world. Christ did not come to give us victory over physical successes. Therefore, the name of Jesus has already been working for you, not that it was meant to work for you later in the future when you begin to see success from your troubles |
chiommy123:all these church people, una funny o ![]() So church will twist bible to suit your traditional hunger of believing that Satan and it agents or demons have power to attack and hurt you people, and you people will believe in such lies abi? All I'm saying is, believing in the power of demons have not done any good to any christian Go back and read the whole of that scripture again, Satan agents or demons were never mentioned. I don't know where churches are getting that from? Perhaps from African traditional believes and fictions. Question : have you ever seen Christians being delivered from witchcrafts and demon's in churches before? That is home video ![]() |
chiommy123:what does this mean? |
kimco:original name or not we aren't interested in all that. All we are interested is the person, Jesus He came to give us eternal life and that's what mankind needed. |
chiommy123:utilize the power to do what? |
This is not a young man according to the op, This is a full grown baba now. |
denisbid:so, how about the option of correcting the religious leaders and get them truly educate the people? |
denisbid:Exactly! You have said it all. Now, who is to blame for this?even the most brutal military dictator will encounter problems with this approach of yours ![]() You know, democracy is goverment for the people, and the people who are so religious will come for you . |
