I always tell people that Nigerians are gullible people especially those their pastors, and church owners… they preach convenience to you….without listening to them you’ll still achieve what you’re supposed to achieve… Christianity has zero impact on your life as a person except becoming vulnerable to yourself.

Instead of preaching salvation, preach and teach your followers how to be financially secure and independent because at the end of every church service you demand their money in the name of offering and tithes

How will you know the taste of real food when you haven't eaten it? You see junks everywhere you go hence you think that's the real thing.

Christianity isn't a physical phenomenon dealing with your natural senses. It's a matter of the soul and the desire to save itself from contamination and being overrun by the fleshly lusts, moral degeneration and serving the idols of money, materialism, pursuit of fame and lust for power. All these killed your conscience and make you hate God and love worldly affairs and evil the do in darkness to their shame.

I've always known this one as a charlatan. He didn't prove me wrong.

Nigerian Pastors tap into the gullibility of the weak and frustrated. Ironically, many Nigerian politicians will be in the shortlist because they didn't work hard or sweat for the money they're wasting.

End time. Bible already warned us to beware of these devils. He knows he has fucvkd up but too ashamed to admit it

It's for the ancient Israel and shouldn't be practiced today. But because we have selfish men of God who who claim they get direct wisdom and message from God to sell heavenly properties to Nigerians to start building mansion in heaven... that's why we are where we are today.

It is Written "The same law applies both to the native-born and to the foreigner residing among you.".

Ah! My friend don fall my body

Since we're looking for crazy ways to spend the gospel, how about releasing a s*x tape and tagging it "Jhn 3:16" also. I bet that would reach billions in a few hours

All things are lawful but not all are expedient. This pastor should know better

This is the problem when the adopted religion does not conform to your native culture. In some cultures in the country, drawings on parts of the body are allowed, just as keeping a particular kind of hairstyle. That does not or should not make such cultural practices to be considered evil. The issue, I think, that traditional/cultural religious beliefs have is that they did not evolve or apply their solutions to societal problems, compared to say Christianity. In other regions of the world, they adopted new things from other regions while maintaining or evolving their native cultural practices without changing their entire religious beliefs.

Our Resident Nairaland Pastor no dey online to come and enlighten us or he dey hunt for Trump speech and Israel News up nd down...

That one na “convenience” “Christian” hin be. Na only Palestine, Israel and Trump matter him dey be Christian. Naija Christian Gen0cid3 he run like pleek wee catch cold

The main challenge is not that millions are reached but that many will abuse it, it's no more in our culture to do tattoos

Lukuluku69:
Leviticus 19:28 (KJV) Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

If you go by old testament, you might be confused.
- David got two sisters to marry him
- Solomon was allowed to marry many wives in addition to concubines
- Man were not made to long hair but Jesus is depicted with a long hair

Jesus coming ended several traditions of old and God only concern Himself with love of God and love of neigbor.

Christainity has a huge positive impact on your life when you dwell in God's presence by having fellowship with Him.

Pastors , evangelist etc are workers whom can either be vessels of honour or dishonour
It is up to you to grow your spirit in the knowledge of God not to worship God in men but God in you .

By their fruit you shall know them

So I can boldly go against the Ten Commandments and every other Ordinances God ordained because "God only concern Himself with love of God and love of neighbours?

That is not the way it works Sir.

Even Jesus says>>>>

[b]Matthew 5:17-19 (KJV) Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven

My own is, I urge everyone to read their bible, asked for Holy Spirit to help you and don't forget to ask for discernment spirit to understand the voice. Meanwhile, This is endtime we are in, Bible already mentioned this many years ago, I mean what's currently going on everywhere...So, we have to be very careful, he who has ears, let him hear what the spirit is saying to the churches. Shalom!!!

We are saying the same thing. If u have love of God and Man, you won’t break any of the commandments. Even people without God knows that the commandment law is very moral to keep.

Lukuluku69:
Really really?

Leviticus 19:28 (KJV) Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

That's old testament. Show me in the new testament.

Tattoos are merely for beautification of the body

Personally, I don’t think Jesus will have a problem with people who have tattoos. God will not condemn you to hell just because chose to get a random tattoo. Anyone condemning him is a hypocrite & lacks exposure. Travel overseas and you’ll see Christian rockstars tatted up leading spirit moving praise and worship, preaching the gospel and winning souls for Christ.

Lol

Is Jehovah Commandments not FOREVER again?

Just do what is right in your heart. Jesus broke the ten commandments to heal on the sabbath

Wonders shall never end in Christianity.
From knacking Pastor Chris Okafor to another tattoo pastor.
Only in the church

Lol Creative Evangelism!

Some pastors are trying to help God in the redemption of souls.

"Creative Evangelism,
Lol
I love it

This is indeed sad

I have always respected pastor Kingsley, but this tattooing is a big NO.

People who wear tattoos often wrestle with painful and negative emotions and use it as a cover up.

But besides that, it's offensive against his body as the temple of the Holy Spirit.

Did anyone think this guy was a pastor? Lmaoooooooooooooo! Una mumu

You should have even used the one in Leviticus 21.
.
Either ways, the Bible did not forbid tattoos. Here it says, " Ye shall not make any cuttings on your flesh FOR THE DEAD".
First of all he's talking to the High Priest of the old testament only
Secondly, he's saying you should never mourn so bad for the dead that you have to cut yourself, just like some Arabs and Indians still do to this day.
.
You people are just forcing your own personal preferences on Scripture.

The holy spirit has no problem with this; it's just hypothetical Christians trying to force their personal preferences on scripture.
Nowhere in the bible is tattoos forbidden. And O don't see how this dishonours anyone, while cutting of hair is okay.

Tattoos isn't a sin per SE, but tattoos are not natural, they are man made.

God wants us natural as He made us.

Why would I put marks on my body to glorify God??

It sounds strange.

And please don't speak on behalf of the Holy Spirit.

Let the Holy Spirit speak Himself, don't make opinions for Him.

And certainly no one can help God.

A Christian has higher value moreover a pastor

How does a tattoo spread the gospel - imagine from a supposed pastor
