you just hate the fact that he's being persecuted for speaking up for Muslims being killed.
He made the statement in December.. Before then, he was dumped by the German National team, wenger left him out of away games and had a fallout with him, Emery wanted nothing to do with Ozil. The club already was fed up with him before he even made the China statement.
Christianity EtcRe: The Difference Between Abel's And Cain's Sacrifice by scriptures01: 7:29pm On Oct 11, 2020
All sacrifice should be in the similitude of the sacrifice of the Only Begotten Son.
Christ shed his blood on the cross of calvary, the symbol of blood was very important.
Cain on the advise of Satan offered up the fruit of the ground, his actions was in direct
opposite to the commandment God had given him and Abel and a mockery of the future
sacrifice of the Only Begotten Son,
That's why it was rejected.

Christianity EtcRe: Does Baptizing Come Before Salvation Or After Salvation. by scriptures01: 10:24pm On Oct 02, 2020
let’s begin with what a covenant is according to God. A covenant is, “A sacred agreement
between God and a person or group of people. God sets specific conditions, and He promises
to bless us as we obey those conditions. When we choose not to keep covenants, we cannot
receive the blessings, and in some instances we suffer a penalty as a consequence of our disobedience.”

When you are baptized, you covenant with God that you are willing to take upon yourself the name of Christ
and keep His commandments throughout your life...
And in return, God promises to
1. Grant you the companionship of the Holy Spirit
2. Forgive you of our sins
3. Let you come forth in the first resurrection.

But the baptism has to be valid, meaning it must be performed by one having the authority and not
just a pastor who decided to form his own church.
So back to your question, if you haven't entered into a covenant with God, you can't receive the
promises because God is just.

BusinessRe: How I Was Defrauded At Alaba International Market Today. by scriptures01: 6:06pm On Sep 02, 2020
Now you can understand why Ghanaians decided to lock up shops of Nigerians in Ghana.
4 years ago I bought a phone in Ghana from a Nigerian shop in circle. When I got home
I realized they had packaged soap in the phone box.
I cried because I had saved the money for months....
PoliticsRe: FG Reacts To Closure Of Nigerian Traders' Shops In Ghana by scriptures01: 10:30am On Aug 18, 2020
Many Nigerians here are ignorant of Ghana law.
The law only relates to those entering the retail market, the retail market has been reserved for Ghanaians only in a bid
to keep unemployment low. Foreigners cannot engage in retail in any of the markets.
Many other areas are open for Nigerians to engage in.
example
Services sector
IT sector
etc
There are many Nigerians in Ghana who respected the law and established businesses in the Services Sector, IT
sector and are doing business without any issue.
Only those Nigerians who decided to do retail (selling single units) in their shops and opened shops in any of the major markets
have been shut down.
The major reason why the Ghanaians reacted was that once a Nigerian opens shop in the market, he engages in agressive
marketing crashing the price of what he is selling, reducing profit to the point that all the other Ghanaian shops have to go
out of business.
It became so bad that the Ghanaians couldn't even feed from their own shops and the Nigerian traders were loving it
because they got all the customers.
The Nigerian traders even went as far as overpaying for the shops, the landlords started taking their rent in dollars.
It was a ticking time bomb based on greed and eventually when Buhari closed the border, Ghanaians decided to react too.
The Ghanaians are just trying to reclaim their markets back.

CareerRe: Do Not Accept A Banking Job - I Refused To Listen by scriptures01: 12:47pm On Aug 05, 2020
The best advise you will get is this:
Find a problem that is facing Nigerians daily, look for a solution.
You will see yourself embarking on a journey that will build you and reward you financially.
Never go into any field based on mere recommendation, do the research yourself. It will save you heartache in the future.

Dunning-Kruger Effect states that, “the knowledge and intelligence that are required to be good
at a task are often the same qualities needed to recognize that one is not good at that task.
meaning - the less you know about a field, the more you overestimate your own ability in relation to that field.
the more you know about a field, the more you underestimate your own ability in relation to that field

Now you are at a cross road, the Dunning-kruger effect will definitely come into play here, you will get a lot of suggestions
and will definitely overestimate your ability to succeed in those field.
Instead of looking for trending skills, look for problems around you and go into overdrive on how to solve those problems
and you will be amazed that people will be willing to pay you for the solution.
Elon Musk is a classic example, he had identified problems in the US (NASA high cost of payload, ineffective electric cars,
etc) and he went on overdrive and came up with solutions to NASA issue, electric cars etc and soon is on his way to becoming the richest man soon.

I left Nigeria few years ago and when I arrived in my new environment, I noticed a problem here and it had to do with the payment system
I started searching for ways to solve the issue and finally found it.
When I launched the solution I was amazed at the number of people begging to take their money to use my service.
It changed my life.

PoliticsRe: Foreign Debt: Let Borrowing Binge Stop - Punch by scriptures01: 10:18am On Jul 22, 2020
Chinese are so smart, they know if they print billions of Yuans and inject into their economy it will cause inflation,
so what do they do?
They print the yuans and loan it to 3rd world countries, the 3rd world countries make serviced payments on the loan
back to China in USD which comes as foreign earnings, inflation issue solved.
When will Nigerian leaders learn and stop borrowing?
PoliticsRe: Foreign Debt: Let Borrowing Binge Stop - Punch by scriptures01: 10:10am On Jul 22, 2020
allthingsgood:
All the debt incurred by this administration are paying for themselves. E.g Abuja train alone makes more than 5million a month. That's how the loaan will be repaid. Compared with past regimes where they just borrow money and pocket. Borrowing this time around is always tied to a project
5 million naira is around $11,000+.
$5 billion / $11,000+
hope you get the gist of the article?

Most certainly that’s what they will opt for . At 37, getting the maximum of 20 years means he will be out by 57 or if option of parole , be out, earliest ,by 52 . The better part of his productive life would be over .

Plea bargain to get it to 5 to 10 years and drop all the money They still have. The deal would be for him to give up all money and if while serving his Reduced sentence , they find some undeclared loot, back to maximum sentence straight.

Freedom is sweet oh . Ordinary lockdown people wan die talk less of being in prison for years
1 count is 20 years, it depends on how many counts they are finally charged with. if the FBI should push the counts to 5,
that's a life sentence. Remember many companies are separately involved. That will definitely increase the counts

Christianity EtcRe: If A Baby Dies Will He/She Go To Heaven Or Hell? by scriptures01: 11:40am On Jun 21, 2020
" Listen to the words of Christ, your Redeemer, your Lord and your God.
Behold, I came into the world not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance;
the whole need no physician, but they that are sick; wherefore, little children are whole,
for they are not capable of committing sin; wherefore the curse of Adam is taken from
them in me, that it hath no power over them; and the law of circumcision is done away in me."

Babies when they die return back to the presence of God, the atonement covers them.
They need no baptism and they are saved.
Age of accountability is 8 years old. Below 8 years are not capable of committing sin and it
means that when they die they are sinless and through the atonement have the power to return back into the presence of God.

Baptism of babies is an abomination in the sight of God.
TV/MoviesRe: TSTV Loses Office Due To Debt - Premium Times by scriptures01: 10:05am On Jun 10, 2020
The main reason Nigerian businesses fail is that their only reason for entering the business environment
is to steal customers through low prices.. Entering a new business environment and using low prices is doomed
to fail because:
*It's almost impossible to have low prices and quality in the same sentence. In the long term, loss of customers
and declining sales will happen once customers realize that the quality is lacking.
*They will attract the wrong set of customers, the cheap kind.
*The bigger business has funds that can last them for years, they normally respond with reduced prices leading to
a price war. The new Nigerian business now finds itself starved of profit and within a year has to go under.

New Nigerian businesses should learn to focus on value and quality. And not the usual jargon of awoof prices
in a bid to steal the market. It will always backfire.

Glo used the same strategy when entering Ghana, they only focused on cheap airtime, cheap data. Forward to
the present day, they have lost all their customer base. Of what good is a cheap airtime or data, when you can't
hear the other pseron on the other line or use the data to browse.....
Christianity EtcRe: What's The Best Way Of Changing Your Church? by scriptures01: 9:51am On Jun 07, 2020
chelseamann:
I actually don't have any problem with the church, pastor or any member.
It's just that my heart is no longer in the church, as in, I am just forcing myself to attend it's Sunday services and because of the fact that my heart is not there, I don't enjoy the services unlike before.

Few tips on why I lost interest:
1. The church is too close to my house
2. The environment is quite not presentable
3. It's more of a family church,
4. The way his son( the junior pastor runs the church as if it's his personal business, too authoritative).
Honestly, I totally fell out of love with the church and I wish to change.
So what's the best way to do that without hurting or causing problems??

Christianity EtcRe: 4 Lessons From The Parable Of Talents by scriptures01: 9:49am On Jun 07, 2020
5. The parable of the talents can also be likened to the gift of children.
The talent belonged to the master and was given to the servant and upon his return found out that some of the
servants had doubled their talent. Children belong to God and have been given to us and when the master
returns, he will ask you what you did with his talent (children).
Some people out of selfishness decided to bury (abort) the child, denying that child the opportunity to reproduce
(double). When the master returns, he will require an account of how the talent was used.
Caution: Abortion is a serious sin and a sin unto death, no amount of crying, remorse will remove that sin.
As a result of the choice of the parents, the spirit leaves the baby's body and returns back to God,
that spirit had been deprived of the experiences of earth life, at the 2nd coming of Christ, the atonement will cover that
spirit.
NEVER ABORT A CHILD, NEVER! NEVER!! NEVER!!!
and the suffering after this life for those who have committed abortion
—how sore the suffering you know not, how exquisite the suffering you know not, yea, how hard to bear you know not.

PoliticsRe: Major K Yakubu Killed By Boko Haram After Faulty Vehicle by scriptures01: 9:40am On Jun 04, 2020
post=90292556:
What a sad story!

May it never ever be well with the evil and looting party that brought this evil Boko Haram into our nation..

These Criminals couldn't do anything for more than a decade and watch Boko haram kill thousand and thousands of innocent Nigerians.
Those people could not go to their place of worship for over a whole year.
Back then, if you see an ordinary polythene bag (nylon of akara) on the floor, everybody starts running helter-skelter thinking it's gonna be an explosive/BOMB!
(It was that bad!)

Same evil party that denied Boko Haram kidnapped 286 of our teenage girls before the world stood up to burst their bubble!

They rather share the BILLIONS meant to procure ammunition for our soldiers to tackle this Boko Haram insurgency (when it was still at infancy) among themselves and watch our soldiers die!!

Only people with chicken brains must have forgotten all these atrocities in less than 6 years. 
That is why we call them hypocrites and children of hate, perdition and frustration.
(They are trying to tell us that this raped, battered and looted nation by their party of looters was like Canada or Dubai pre 2015!)

Kidnappings, Daily Pipeline Explosions etc were the order of the day.
More of the reason we sent the ineffectual buffon packing. 

Our darling country will win this war as a nation, and all the politicians sponsoring these killings along with anyone supporting them will all die miserably and terribly in due season.

God bless Nigeria.
We knew all these and in 2015 we voted for change, hoping all the ills will be corrected. But I guess after 5 years, they are still
blaming present day occurence on the past administration.
In 5 years, billions have been bugdeted for the military, just wondering why the military will take a faulty vehicle to war.
In as much as I didn't like GEJ, but he has no blame for the recent happenings because APC campaigned that they were going to
fix the issues caused by GEJ.

I recently heard a speech by a passing university president, he said as he was entering office, his predecessor gave him 3 envelopes,
told him to open 1 envelope every year.

1st year into his administration, he opened the 1st envelope and saw a note which read" Blame the previous administration"
this he did, and it helped him with his critics.

2nd year, he opened the 2nd envelope and saw "implement your goals and get to work" which he did and things went smoothly.

3rd year, he opened the last envelope and saw "prepare 3 envelopes for the next president"....

Moral of this story:
Buhari better start preparing 3 envelopes for his successor.
Whoever will replace Buhari will use his 1st year blaming Buhari for many issues.
The sooner people learn to take responsibility for their present condition, the earlier the person can make
corrective adjustments to take them out of the situation.

Blaming the past administration is a lazy way of saying we lied and can't solve the problem.
