New cases springing up... #ChangeIsHere |
DickTator1:But won at the 4th |
lurther:In your opinion sir, what/Who brought down GEJ's Government? |
What will you gain in wishing the newly elected President of your Country (Nigeria) fails, just to justify your reason for voting or supporting the outgone president. What will you or the Country gain from people just waiting to highlight or point out where the new president would fail at keeping his promises. If Nigeria becomes better under his watch, it is to our collective benefit. The Nation has a pledge; I pledge Nigeria my Country, to be faithful loyal and honest, To serve Nigeria with all my strength, To defend our unity, And uphold our Honour and Glory, So help me God. Are you true to this pledge as a citizen. Even the outgone president is relieved of this burden he has been bearing all these while and has moved on, allowing new sets of minds and hands to help us all steer the country towards the paths of prosperity. We have a New President, lets accept this reality and Pray for his success. Most importantly, we must realise that, just as the New President starts his duties, we have also be sworn in to the Office of the Citizen of the Federeal Republic of Nigeria. Be an active citizen, play your part. Don't be an activist who just talks a lot of negative and highlights problems. But be an active citizen who lives in honesty and Loves their neighbours just as the major religions encourage. Speak life, speak positive, Speak Unity, Speak love, and let the blessings be ours..... If Nigerians (The World) know and believed in the Love professed in the good books, things would have been better... PreachLove... |

shahydbinaliyu:Your heart is desperately seeking the truth. I see your posts. One day you will come to the full realisation of the Truth. Forget about what some christians are practicing, or what some churches are doing, different people with their own interpretation. Everyone has their own path, their own life's Journey God guides everyone to the truth in his own time. Going to church is not the most important for Christians. Coming to knowledge of the Light and Love God brings through Jesus is what matters. I pray for you, that you will find the Truth. All I know is that, God Loves you soo much, whether you offend him, No matter how much you sin, He has forgiven and forgotten about your sins. His Love is unconditional. He doesn't Love the way men Love. It is something we cannot explain No sin you commit will stop him from Loving you.The only thing he wants you to do is just to accept this Love. (John 3:16). The only sin is unbelief. God has gone past our sins. Jesus handled it. and he has reunited the whole world with the FATHER. just believe. when you believe, he then gives you the power to become a Son of God. |

Sleekydee:A woman according to the bible should not stand behind the altar preaching Really?? Where in your bible??It says women should be silent, if you take it that way, they wouldnt even need to sing or even say anything in church. The point of the post is to show something that was lost in translation from the Hebrew to English. Paul was responding to their letters they wrote to him. so he quoted them, just as i quoted you and responded. |
xreal:Did you read the post? Paul wasn't the one who said it. |
2 Timothy 2:15 Rightly divide the Word of Truth. 1 cor 14: 33 For God is not a God of disorder but of peace—as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people. 34 Women[f] should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. 35 If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.[g] 36 Or did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only people it has reached? 37 If anyone thinks they are a prophet or otherwise gifted by the Spirit, let them acknowledge that what I am writing to you is the Lord’s command. 38 But if anyone ignores this, they will themselves be ignored.[h] 39 Therefore, my brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues. 40 But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way. Looking at the above, you would see some contradictions. How will Paul say women should be silent in verse 34 and same time say in verse 39. my brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy and do not forbid speaking in tongues. Paul could not have said about women prophesying in 1 Corinthians 11 and go on to say women should be silent in 1 Corinthians 14. The truth is there is no contradiction. If you follow the story from the beginning, you would see that there was a central theme bothering around orderliness in worship and verse 34 and 35 seems out of place. The reason is because Paul was responding to letters they had written to him, hence verse 34 and 35 was a quote from their letters. They were pointing to their Law, how women were not allowed to speak. Paul questioned them asking if they were the only ones who had God's word or if the Word of God originated from them. In KJV verse 36 36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only? This was an interaction between Paul and the Corinthians, he was responding to a letter they wrote earlier. 1 cor 7:1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. So the book of 1 Corinthians was Paul's response to their letter to him, and he did quote from their letters directly in his writing to them, which was not properly reflected in the English translation. The truth was that Paul was rebuking them. He took their quote in verse 34 and 35 and tore it apart. Reading the verses before and the verses after would give more insight. The point is Paul never said that, the Corinthians said that, and Paul was responding to that. Read the post again if you have..... Stay blessed. http://www.thekorro.net/2015/04/truth-did-paul-say-women-should-remain.html

PastorOluT:Very well said!!!!! |
kilokeys:Kissed him before ? |
by Scott Postma It’s not a secret the church has been in decline for a number of years and for a variety of reasons. You can read some statistics and views on why, here and here and here. Everyone has their opinions. Abuse, apostasy, and irrelevance are just a few of the words that keep coming up in the search for reasons for the decline. There are a variety of compelling opinions and I even have a few of my own. But I suggest there is another area of decline more significant and perhaps much less obvious—and one that certainly contributes to the church’s decline in numbers. And I think its likely a careful analysis would implicate the church’s leadership for this more significant issue. In other words, I’m concerned about pastors and the role they play in the church’s decline. By saying so, I’m not suggesting this pastor has it all together. Nor am I trying to cultivate (or ratify) some dishonest skeptics’ hate for the church. Rather, I’m hoping to raise some concerns in a conversational kind of way. Further, I’m not claiming to be the expert in all church issues. However, I have been in some form of pastoral ministry for the last 19 years and feel I have some measure of insight about the issue. So in an effort to pursue this conversation in a healthy way, here are 10 pastors I’m concerned about. 1) I’m concerned about the pastor who is better at managing church programs than he is at making disciples of Jesus. Thom Rainer & Eric Geiger addressed this topic somewhat in the book Simple Church, but I’m not sure how many pastors paid attention to the message. The church is not better because it has more programs. It’s quite possible for programs to hinder its real mission. 2) I’m concerned about the pastor who attracts people with fancy self-help sermons instead of teaching people to be students of the Bible and theology. Sure topical sermons can be helpful teaching tools when used appropriately and in moderation. But to pique interest in the unchurched, church-growth pastors have promoted episodic sermons ad nauseam and to no avail at effectively grounding deeply committed disciples of Jesus, as the statistics provided previously demonstrate. 3) I’m concerned about the pastor who is a chief executive instead of a contemplative sage. The pastor is called to a contemplative life of prayer and study of the word (Acts 6:4Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) cf. Ephesians 4:11-16Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)). From that life his ministry flows to the church. The pastor was never called to be a rock-star communicator or bench-mark business leader. He was called to model redemption and shepherd the flock of God (1 Peter 5:1-4Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) cf. Acts 20:28Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)). Perhaps pastors should consider putting away their John Maxwell and Nelson Searcy books and picking up the Bible and the church fathers. 4) I’m concerned about the pastor who uses the pulpit to milk members instead of minister to the saints. It was the angry atheist, Richard Dawkins, who asked Ted Haggard (back in the day) why he needed a multi-million dollar sound system that paralleled that of MTV to teach people about God. I think that’s a question that deserves an answer. Why do pastors need to build bigger and better on the backs of God’s people? I think the answer may be rooted in the human heart. Francis Chan seemed to have caught that vision when he was still pastor in Simi Valley. And if we think we need to build bigger barns, perhaps we should pray about church planting as a viable alternative. 5) I’m concerned about the pastor who makes growing the church the goal instead of glorifying God the goal. There is no biblical mandate for growing the church. Sure there is one for propagating the gospel and making disciples. But the chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy him forever. There is nothing in Scripture, except pride, that drives pastors to drive the flocks they are supposed to be tending. 6) I’m concerned about the pastor who builds his ministry with people instead of building people by his ministry. It seems I’ve said this already, just differently. But here I’m speaking to a philosophy that often underlies many of the abuses in the church. For example, a well-known mega-church pastor once advised me to think of people in seven-year terms. He explained that people generally burn out after seven years. And if I wanted to build a big ministry for God, I would need to leverage those seven years. Funny, I don’t recall God asking pastors to leverage his people for the pastor’s dream of building a big church for God. 7) I’m concerned about the pastor who cultivates a culture of dependency on himself instead of cultivating a culture of community within the church. Of course, I’m not denying spiritual dependency on Christ is biblical. But the pastor is not the people’s savior. He’s a just man who will burn out and fail himself given enough time and responsibility. Christians should be taught to depend on Jesus as our Savior, the church as our sanctifying community, the Bible as our word from God, and the Spirit as our parakletos. 8 ) I’m concerned about the pastor who reads and teaches the Bible literally instead of literarily. This is not to suggest the Bible is not important or any less God’s word. It’s to say the Bible is literature, divine literature to be sure, but literature nonetheless. That means it needs to be read and understood as God’s word to us (or for us) in the context of its literary genre. Not all the Bible is prescriptive; and none of it was written to be used as a random list of verses cherry-picked capriciously to beat people up or defend our personal ideas and beliefs. The Bible is the holy canon which reveals God to us through the person and work of Jesus Christ. Pastors who mishandle God’s word are extremely dangerous. 9) I’m concerned about the pastor who contributes to the culture of consumerism instead of combating idolatry. Pastors who pander to the consumerism in the church are no different than parents who give their kids everything they want to keep them from throwing a fit or to get them to reciprocate love. Christianity isn’t a smorgasbord where people get to pick and choose what they like or don’t. It’s a community of believers on a journey and mission of faith who live in communitas with others for the glory of God, the blessing of his people, and the advancement of his kingdom. 10) I’m concerned about the pastor who sees the church as a stepping stone instead of seeing it as a custodian of Christ’s kingdom. Certainly, God moves people. And certainly pastors have a right to pursue other ventures as the Lord leads and gives liberty. But the church is the primary agent for the stewardship of the gospel and the redemption of the cosmos. It’s the integral institution for advancing Christ’s kingdom and for shaping culture and society. It’s not God’s second-hand agency. It’s not his “Plan B.” Jesus died for the church and it is significant. These are a few of my concerns about pastors. What are your concerns?
