9: An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

*MEMORY VERSE:* Proverb 11:3 "The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them."

*LESSON INTRODUCTION*
Integrity comes from Latin word ‘Integritas’ which means wholeness, entireness or unbroken state. It is the state of being honest, just, upright or pure. Integrity covers the whole moral character. It is one of the needs of the church and the society today.

*LESSON OUTLINE ONE: THE ESSENCE OF INTEGRITY*

i. Integrity is fundamentally a proof of one’s belief in the Gospel of our Lord Jesus. 2 Corinthians 5:17

ii. It is a character which makes a person not to waiver. 1Kings 9:4

iii. Through integrity, a person becomes reliable to family members, subordinates and superiors. 1Samuel 12:3-4

iv. The fellow who has integrity honours his words , promises and is committed to responsibilities. Joshua 2:12-14, Joshua 6:22-23

v. The fellow who has integrity recognizes his/her fallibility, takes responsibilities for actions or inactions, takes necessary corrective action for failure without minding cost. Gen 26:9-11

vi. Those who have integrity are truthful and consistent. Luke 16:10

*LESSON OUTLINE 2: FACTORS ERODING INTEGRITY*

i. The quick-fix mentality for worldly gains. 2Kings 5:20-23

ii. Ignorance of the living word of God. Hos 4:6; Prov 29:18

iii. Preoccupation with gratifying physical desires resulting in lust of the flesh. 1John 2:16
iv. Crave for material wealth at the expense of loyalty. Matthew 26:15

v. Inability to maintain a consistent lifestyle both in the private and in the open. Joshua 7:11,19; Gen 31:32-35

vi. Misappropriation of God’s mercy and grace as an excuse for careless living and moral laxity. Romans 1:28;6:1-2

*SUMMARY*
Based on the word of God, all believers are to live a life guided absolutely by integrity. Doing contrary is heading for destruction. Prov 11:3

*CONCLUSION*
If ever we need two powerful force to preserve us along life’s way, they are integrity and uprightness. While uprightness makes us learn God’s requirements and strive to fulfill them, integrity keeps us from claiming too be upright while living in pretense. Gen 39:9

*CLOSING PRAYER*
i. Father, deliver our society from corruption. Help the world to be upright in dealings.

InesQor:
I just had to resurrect this thread.

Pastor E. A. Adeboye said when you sow into a believer's life, you qualify for 30% returns. To a pastor (like Joagbaje) you get 60%. But when you sow into an almighty GO's life (like himself, Pastor Chris and "Bishop" Oyedepo, Odulele, Ashimolowo etc. ), you get 100%. Gbam. No shaking.

He said and I quote,

When you sow into the life of a genuine High priest of God, you do not only get returns in monetary or material forms, but also obtain what money cannot buy. Some people will say, "Our G.O. is very comfortable and does not need what I want to give to him. Let me rather send it to somebody in need." Always remember that when you sow, you are not doing the recipient of that seed a favour, but yourself. Stop robbing yourself of great blessings!

This is woeful, pitiful, pathetic. Brainwashing of the highest order. Before RCCG goons show up on the scene to reply me, please use your heads and tell me if the statement above is not built upon greed and selfishness. Search the Bible for yourselves!

For the same reason, people are drinking garri as they contribute towards buying, maybe, yet another private jet for Oyedepo.

Have you ever come across the story of Elijah in the book of Bible book of first kings? If you have and still wrote this then two things must be happening here
1. Either you read and refuse to understand
2. You're just being sarcastic for the sake of internet anonymity.
If Elijah was to be a Nigerian pastor you would send him to the hangman because if your hatred for Nigerian pastors anything they do is wrong
Keep it up dude

Raymondfayowole:
Is it a must u allow evryone knw u want to fast, church is meant to be autonomous.

Matthew 6:16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

What tells you that it is the church that posted this? Besides the church has not even given the date for any fasting this is just the hand work of itchy finger bloggers in a bid to get useless traffic to their silly blog. As for the bible passage you cited please stop being sarcastic and if you do please do not include the bible in your sorry state of mind

Nothing special all days are equal we just create a concept for certain days

AxxeMan:
Yoruba's and thier intolerance of other languages is so disgusting

PMWSpirit:

FOLYKAZE:
Is Buhari not paying tax too? He earns salary after tax has been deducted.

And where is the evidence that Yusuf medical bill is offset from tax money? You guys just real out garbage from your anu just to prove a point.

On the principle of equity, the Church and Mosque is a business avenue which must be taxed. In UK, churches and religion centres are been taxed. This is because most full term pastors and bishops are been paid salary. The church earn revenue from every possible means. Either by selling religion items or offering money for special prayers. All these are no different from corporate organizations that render services or Industries that sells manufactured products which are taxed.

The Church property like every other Business properties should be taxed. The Sales revenue and Salaries of Pastors should be taxed too. There should no exception because both Church and it operators earn money. There is money flow that is taxable. These pastors or whatever they tag themselves should pay income tax just like every person. And the church which makes money from the congregation should also pay tax just like every other business or institution

Buhari don't pay tax, if you any evidence contrary to this let's see it

Maybe Yusuf is a teenager because I don't know how this is the fault security guards for an adult that went drag racing

favourmic:

Oga Ambassador be careful oo. These people have a reputational of dropping bombs on innocent people.

Like they dropped it on you?

ilovebbwgirl:
It is a historical fact that girls from the ages of 9 to 14 were married in Europe, Asia, Africa and America. For example, Saint Augustine ( 350CE ) married a girl who was 10 years old. King Richard II, married a 7 year old girl. King Henry VIII married a 6 years old girl. According to the Catholic encyclopedia, Mary the mother of Jesus was 12 years when she married 99 year old Joseph. Before 1929, Church of England Ministers could marry 12 years old girls in Britain.

Because someone is doing a thing you seem to say it is right? Would you eat poison because your neighbours are eating poison? I don't understand your logic at all

Harbdulrasaq:
On the instruction of President Buhari, GMD NNPC Group, Dr Baru is currently on an assessment tour to some filling stations in Abuja to see what’s happening on the ground.

exotik:
wot does this name mean in yoruba? this sounds edoid to me.

more like a corruption of osanaga obamekhin

meaning

osanaga -- the god to serve
obamekhin -- i am the king

so it would be nice to know the yoruba meaning.

Osangangan = noon

Obamakin = king know bravery (king is brave)

jamexborn:
The more stupid one is, the closer one is to reality. The more stupid one is, the clearer one is. Stupidity is brief and artless, while intelligence squirms and hides itself. Intelligence is unprincipled, but stupidity is honest and straightforward.


You are stupid

So you wasted your time to speak tthis big grammar just to let someone know that he's not wise? Na wa for you o

Aremson14:
No. I'm saying people should b objective... Most people here have problem with dis issue because it is related to Islam

Then you would have picked up one of their biased comments and trash it instead of this your hasty generalisation

Aremson14:
I think there is a problem with majority of Christians in dis country. Anytime they Hear anything Islamic they are against it regardless even if what da are saying is crazy. They are not saying u must wear hijab or not but it should b ur choice what is so difficult in that its just lyk wearing a wrist band. I'm sure if it was a wrist band da were talking of da would still say it is wrong. I remember during d elections some people were PDP simply because d APC brought a Muslim person.

So you mean those who stopped her being called to bar are Christians?

Bimpe29:
I standwithfridaous

When leg pain you, you go sit

Dpleaser:
So are u suggesting she sud quit being a Muslim lady because she intends to practice law or she should honor d event because of her hijab. I think u are not getting d point. The country's constitution allows for everybody to belong to a religion n practice it as stipulated by d religions law. Part of the rule of the religion is wearing of hijab for female. So why should this result into headache for d Christians. You people are the real haters, instead of u to focus on how to liberate yourself from ur private-jet riding Daddy G.O, you are there criticizing other people's religion. Smh, I pray u get it right b4 it'll be too late

Did you see anything Christian in my post? Are you so afraid of Christians so much that it dies give you nightmare? Guy don't kill yourself before your death come. Always try to respond to issues that has been brought to you. I did not even mention Islam in my comment, why are you so blinded by hatred so much that all you could do is bring religion into every matter. Before you eat rat poison on this hijab matter you better go and read her interview first. She admitted that there is a convention which she refused to abide by. She claim that she did what she did to speak for other Muslims who couldn't speak for themselves, this means she have the knowledge of the consequences. So why do you have to bring Christianity into your madness? Be warned I may not be nice the next time you try to derail thread like this

pDudd:
Ok so tithing is bringing 10% of your monthly income to the church huh? Please show me the part of the bible that money was collected as tithe. And also I need to know why tithing was instituted in the first place. And while you do that, explain this passage Hebrews 4:14-16

Lol, this laughable, maybe you should take the painstaking effort to show to the world the text of the bible which states that money should not be used for tithing. Fair enough?

Origin:
To think Femi Fani said that.

Wow.


The hijab is not a Friday wear that you use on special occasion. As you would feel without wearing undies is how she feels with her hijab. And that is the difference.

Would anyone ask a lady to remove her panties in public?. Why would anyone begrudge her her dignity and right.


She did not put on her hijab for the occasion, it is not gele, it is not beret, it is her everyday garb.

Nobody will tell her to remove her panties in the public but for the sake sanity no lady would by herself go to a gathering where she would be asked to remove her panties no sane lady would voluntarily join any group that would ask her to do that I'm the public. The law is a profession guided by its ethics and as such whoever joins is expected to abide by the rules. Fair enough?

OkCornel:
Good news! This is the confusion that comes with religion.

Christians claim to serve the same God and Jesus...yet there are many denominations with conflicting doctrines.

I'll advice you focus on the sermons and teachings of Jesus alone for a start...anything that does not conform should go to blazes...

cheers

And you want to be taken serious?

Youngkingz:
Nice work,... Please don't forget OPEN HEAVENS

OK

36STATES:
Those that produce rice will show you the rice growing in the field, being planted, being harvested.
Showing you a stack of bagged rice is no proof. Go to Youtube and watch areas in Nigeria that produce rice;
with the paddy fields and all the activities of farming.

The whole story of Ofada rice is a big lie, no actual commercial rice farm exists in Ofada.

Ofada in Obafemi Owode local government is not the only place where ofada rice is planted. There are several communities in Ewekoro LG, Imeko Afon LG Odeda LG, Egbado South and north LG, etc all in Ogun state that deals in the rice.

Another set of characteristics of the fruit of the Holy Spirit are longsuffering and gentleness as listed in Galatians 5:22-23.

Through patience, believers can understand the writings of the scriptures and thereby have hope. Through patience too, believers can be like minded towards another according to Jesus. (Romans 15:4-5). Believers, through patience and hope, can inherit the promises. Heb 12:6. However, believers can achieve far beyond these through MUCH patience.- 11Cor. 6:4. Apostle Paul endured so much for the cross and became a good example of a person who suffered long( Long suffering) for Christ.

ii. Endure imprisonment 2Cor. 6:5
iii. Endure tumult/ protest/riot- 2Cor. 6:5
iv. Endure labour, sleepless watching and hunger. 2Cor. 6:5
Much patience enable him to suffer afflictions and distress, hardships and calamities. 2Cor. 6:4 Paul was able to maintain the status of purity and innocence. 2 Cor. 6:6.
The apostle combined patience with kindness and his love for Christ skyrocketed. He was able to speak the word of truth among liars with only the weapon of righteousness as defense from attack left and right.-2Cor. 6:7. He was not ashamed of dishonor and evil report which ungodly people labeled him with.
2 Cor. 6:8. He rejoiced in sorrow, glorified God in shame, lived in poverty despite available riches, etc. All these were possible because of the fruit of patience and kindness. -2 Cor. 6:8-10. All believers truly need the fruit of patience and kindness.

petra1:
Wrong!
Malachi 3:8 was adressing the nation of isreal not priests from
Verse 7 the message was for the nation .and in verse 9 he mentioned who he was addressing

Malachi 3:8-9 (KJV)
8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me.
But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee?
In tithes and offerings.
9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me,
even this whole nation.

The foolish op was actually quoting freeze I wonder how they think, everyone is now an authority because someone is angry that we pay tithe. I was shocked then day I watched Freeze's interview on Linda Ikeji TV. When he said Malachi 3 was meant for the priests. He even claimed that Malachi 3 was a continuation of Nehemiah. Those following him are just the fools who wouldn't do personal scriptural searching
