I don't want your redemption that is even destroying you already. The one Jesus did for me is enough.
What i mean is that your gullibility is too much for the redemption of Jesus to save. Jesus never envisaged your level of stupidity.

You took more time painting your words than arranging your grammar.
Nor mind my phone keyboard , was typing fast.

Am sure the person the post is intended for, gets the message. He is not complaining.

Besides, the correct grammer of communication over here,in the streets, markets & public places, is not English language but Russian. ( russian--- "KAK DELA?/(english --how are you?"wink ))

Even my usage of English is not as excellent as before,. Dont really care as far as l can rap my russian language to my professors and lecturers, and hit them damn A1's

Life from a good side. I feel like crying if I should tell you what church in Nigeria is. Church that can't feed it's main members is saying they wanna evangelize or spread in a neighborhood or a state. They ll spread and later over spread that if one of them is in dire need of ordinary N50K, they ll be too poor to assist.
Why not spread a little so that your resources won't be overstretched. Afterall, the evangelism you are doing is meant for new areas and not a concentration in one place whereby it's now obvious parishes there exist for biz purpose.
Let's leave that side, I v heard a lot about good stuffs in Russia. What I dislike is the Putin invading Ukraine.
The body of Christ ll exercise patience to the bearest minimum with Ukraine.
They won't be the first to attack sef.
Islamists & Islamic countries are in love with how Russia is defying the west and attacking Ukraine. On this site, there are many lapdogs that do pro-Putin news to taunt the west.
Also, Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran said the fight is good news to them cos it's crusaders vs crusaders. Imagine that old Iranian mumu, agbaiya!
He even said Russia started crusades. Meaning, those eye service islamists no like Putin but are pushing him to fight the west knowing that one of them ll go down. One of them is that bald head fowl looking Turkish president, Teyrcip Erdogan. But Jehovah ll intervene.


In all, Russia is indeed beautiful.
Islam is your main problem

check out business thread on nairaland.com, look for A thread that talks about online self publishing on nairaland.com, we have several people who are publisher's on that thread and they will guide you or alternatively, go straight to Amazon Kindle website and it will guide you as well, you have a good fictional story that will put dollars in your account monthly, do not sell your work to people, l am afraid that, if you keep posting it in the diary section, some guys might steal your story, rebrand it and sell it via Amazon, so l will suggest that if you want to make money from your current story, stop posting it on your diary cheesy

This is not my first time attending the church here in Yakutsk, Russia (world's coldest city where I study) but I have decided to share my experience about church service in Russia (Yakutsk) with you guys today.
.
This city is 8 hours ahead of Nigeria which means we had concluded the service long before you guys woke up. But my university invited international students to a special program today so I couldn't post this until now.
.
The service begins with songs.
Yakutians and Russians dance and wave flags.
For instance they wave the red flag to symbolize salvation, white to symbolize peace and the flag of Israel to show love for the birth place of Christ.
.
After series of songs the bible is read and the junior pastor say a few things about the verse that is read.
.
.
Then the senior pastor would preach the sermon.
.
After which we hug each other grin shocked now I love this part😘😘😘 and I try to avoid the men and hug the ladies...😍
.
.
After this we go to the dinning room and eat.
.
This is what I love most about the church here. There is nothing like offering and tithe. But we eat heavily every Sunday!
.
.
The first time I arrived here in Yakutsk and went to church, there was this lady that came to me after service and asked me if I am not cold (I didn't have winter clothes yet) she told me even if I were not cold then, I would feel terribly cold when the winter gets tough. She took me to the stores in her car and bought me winter clothes, winter boots, mufflers, winter gloves, etc.
.
.
This is the coldest city in the world and those clothes are needed for survival. Infact even with those clothes, at minus 63 degrees you must not stay outside for more than 30mins to an hour. You would be finished!! (So imagine not having those clothes)
.

.
Her name is sister Natalia and she is so nice (and other people from church too) to the point that I was beginning to wonder if something else was not involved. grin grin
.
.
One day I asked her why she does those things and how the church is able to finance feeding everyone every Sunday without taking offerings.
.
.
She said some people in the church makes secret donations...to do those things. She said they are not rich, they are just reciprocation the love of Christ. She said a brother from church also give enough money to buy winter clothes for every new African student in the city! Those clothes cost about 250k in Nigerian money.
.
.
I can say that 30% of our feeding here is financed by the church. They send us chickens and meat from time to time. Lots of cucumbers, vegetables, rice and potatoes...
.
.
The church believes when people come to the presence of Christ, they should be physically blessed just like Christ fed his multitudes. They have up to 20 varieties of food and they often force us to pack food home. They say if we do not go with the food, they would get spoilt anyway. They make them in excess every Sunday so that no one would go without being filled.
.
.
Sisters in church are very free with boys (including internationals like us) they hug us like we are truly brothers and the women often hug and give us kisses on the cheek (reciprocating the love of Christ)
.
.
The preacher is a woman. She is Ukrainian. The church here does not preach hell at all. Quiet weird. They only talk about the love of Christ. Little wonder it really shows in everyone of them.
You could easily mistake the friendliness of everyone in church for 'love interests' they show that love tooooooo much.
.
Women and men should leave their head uncovered in church. No one would send you out if you do otherwise. But that is the norm here.
.
Korean girls in church wear very skimpy dresses. No one seems bothered about it.
.
.
Below is a video of a choreography performed by some of the teenagers in church.
.

Second picture is with me with my American classmate and a Korean girl(after church)

You see the problem with Africans is that we do not value God so much as our money. We first think about money first before God. Over there, they have first given their lives totally to God and as such their money does not matter to them. They give for the good course of gospel propagation.

Here in Nigeria, money is so much important and as such the only way most pastors can make members value God is to make tithing compulsory as such they programme this in their head of how there is a negative consequence of not paying tithe whereas all that God ask from us is His value or honour. Giving is what is obtainable now based on the finished works of Christ and are no longer bound by the law.

A pastor who is now a preacher of giving and not tithe also complained of how his members stopped giving as they used to after hearing the truth from him. It is the Nigerian and African mindset to value money more than God and it leaves the question - do we truly love God as we claim? Have we totally surrendered everything to Him?

Please, let me advise you grin grin grin grin

You are within honest human beings, dont go and do Nigerian things like impregnate many.

When you destroy trust, you destroy souls. like how you do in your country. grin grin grin

I heard rumors of a Nigerian in Ukraine, but i don't know how true.

You or your dad must be a pastor. Sorry dear, i understand how frustrating it can be when someone is derailing your cashout mechanism.
Re: My Experience With Church Service In Russia (Photos, Videos) by SeriouslySense(m): 5:43pm On Jun 04, 2023
Its totally different culture, you are right many see Church's as a means for wealth and money.

In the case of this Church in Russia, one can see how they value the soul and wellbeing of a person and not money.

They smile, but it does not mean sexual interest



The gullible here support their oppressor's, because one day, they want to become like that.

I think its a Nigerian thing not an African thing.

This is why other smaller African countries are doing better. Or at least have the potential to be better.

When people trust themselves and can work together, they can thrive even in hard circumstances. Countries like Togo, will likely become better than Nigeria in few years, because they have a certain level of values.
