Exactly. Let NURTW be disbanded in all states for sanity to be restored. Whoever among them that can drive should be given a vehicle to drive, let them experience what they've been dishing out to people by working with their own hands to earn a legitimate income. There should be no going back on this, empowering jobless fellows with free source of income while somebody sit somewhere like a demi god holding a whole state to ransom is injustice of the highest order.

awon vanity crew

what shall it profit you to die as poor lady

all die na die madam

It is actually profitable to die poor, but holy and make heaven than riches in ungodliness and go to hell. If you are given the option of going to prison for 70years and be a free man forever or enjoy with unrestricred freedom for 70years and be in prison forever which one will you choose? You can make your choice!

Poor man's mentality. When it's your turn, let them wrap up in bagco super sack and bury you, you hear.

It sincerely makes no difference, what if you die in a shipwreck?

What a pity! Only Child, Only son or only daughter in families should not dare to live their life outside Christ even if others do. All souls are important but some need more connection with the maker by virtue of their position, unfortunately in this era where every young girl and thoughtless adults are bent on slaying. Even if God can be eternally patient for man to repent and come under his saving grace and protection, can the devil be that patient? We need to think about this!

nawa ooo noted but it's kinda safe to have sex with whom u want to marry.. so many girls womb have beene shifted cus of many abortions. how would u know if she would be able to be pregnant.. abegi
check my signature for your graphic design

and you think THE pregnancy can't be lost in 7 months or the baby after birth? If you are faithful to God the spirit of the Lord will not lead you to a pretender or prostitute, that you are attracted to one or obsessed with the possibly of ending up with one is a likely warning to you to get closer to God.

Will any of us be totally bewildered, prostrate, hug, shake and practically adore the message of the Gospel that calls us to repentance from sin, like this young fellow did to his fellow creature? Let's think about this!

Much accolades from all and sundry, but truth be told in the face of eternity this song and others like it means nothing to God.
What seems highly esteemed in the sight of man is an abomination to God.
Our primary purpose of existence is to glorify God on earth and preparation to live with him in eternity.
The salient truth about music is that it is a potential tool that easily get men sway both way with little effort.
Unfortunately in eternity the accolade won't equal the punishment for anyone through whose song souls are led into a hopeless eternity.
This is the more reason we need to think carefully and thoroughly on the path we choose to thread in life and what eternal fate await us from such decision.

he smokes, and what the f**k is wit that? if u can't smoke please let those who does to enjoy their little time while it last.... after we have barely 60 to live on this Earth , and if u are lucky enough to live above it then thank your stats, there are people who lived a smoke free and alcohol free life yet their life was still cut short by mother nature and there are those couldn't live without smoking or alcohol yet they lived above 70...grace makes us all different

Is it all about living long or living healthy and making heaven?

This is newsworthy. But on a lighter note, how can a leader who smoke and shoulder gay right rule in the fear of God? This is why leaders in many nations have lost divine compass and authority to lead their nations aright. They commit more crimes behind the scenes themselves, which eventually lead to their taking instruction from the devil instead of God. Ruling in the fear of God is one of the requisites of anyone who must volunteer to lead among men, for the throne of authority must be build on righteousness, equity and justice.

The good thing about bad governance is that once you leave office your mouth will forever be shut.

sonmvayina:
Why through Jesus ? ...He already gave us a commandment " Do not have any other God before me"..you are also breaking his commandment,

You are also guilty of paganism

Your analysis are far too close to total lies.
Do you mean our African traditional religion that thrives on human sacrifices, occult consultations and idolatrous practices understand the concept of one true God, who abhors all such practices without compromise? If they do know him why didn't they serve him in purity and holiness as he rightly demand from any one who choose to follow him? All the leaves and incarnations where did they come from?

If you know the history of Roman Catholicism you will understand why your assertions and narratives are pure lies. For instance, the church in Rome to whom Paul wrote his Epistle were group of faithful worshipers whose faith were built on Christ, and had nothing to do with ROMAN GOVT who later persecuted them and even beheaded Paul the Apostle under Emperor Nero before Constantinople made Christianity the state official religion. Also note that virtually all gospel and Epistles were already written before the AD 324 you quoted and copy circulated among the saints at that time, any alteration to the original copy in their possession would have been countered immediately. You also expressed gross ignorance of the person of Jesus Christ in the scheme of things..
Firstly, Jesus existed with God from the very beginning of eternity known to man, the heavens and the earth were created through him. Man and all creatures dead or living were created through Jesus Christ. Isn't it therefore reasonable that this same Jesus becomes the perfect deliverer of mankind after humanity fall short of Gods glory in the garden of Eden. Praying to God is therefore in perfect order, and this order was established by Jesus Christ himself and followed by the Apostles and other saints down through the ages.
Secondly, Do you even know that the church at that time were too enlightened to be deceived by falsehood as they were ready to defend their faith with their blood rather than deviate from the truth?
Lastly, Jesus has been prophesied as the coming messiah way back in the old testament by Prophet Isaiah, He prophesied of the coming Messiah who will save his people from their sin and slavery. Messiah means Savior, or the anointed one and that is what Christ is, so how did Roman Catholics or Roman Govt. use the tittle as a means of controlling the populace begs for an answer?
In summary, Christianity can never be controlled or corrupted, what can be controlled or corrupted are the deviant religious groups who initiate and perpetuate practices contrary to the teachings of Christ but found acceptance among gullible followers who fancy such deceit and narratives.
Do you even know that these same deviant groups will be first to embrace the Antichrist after the rapture of the true saints of God? Think about this!

Femi going down to Egypt, be careful! Remember Delilah and Samson, strong man but his beneath prevented him from fulfilling Gods purpose for his life.

RichDad1:
Shouldn’t this palatial house be built in heaven ? So who will inherit all these if truly rapture is real ?
People left on earth by then will have a lot to enjoy

Not so my brother. The reign of Antichrist begins almost immediately after the rapture and that would be a reign of terror for whoever is left behind, not so much about the enjoyment as no one will be allowed to buy or sell without the mark of destruction on your forehead or right hand. Life will become so tasteless that kings, nobles, great tycoons and entrepreneurs, business moguls, kings, president, nobles, captains of industries, peasants and so on will desire nothing but death. Read the scripture verse below to get a full understanding of what will happen after the rapture of the saints.

Revelation 6:15-16
15 Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.
16 They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us[a] from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!

PS: That palatial building you see stands inferior to that of Bill Gates' Xanadu high tech residential building, but the most inferior building in heaven will worth more than all of them combine together. Is this a guess work or exaggeration by me? NO! Just read the scripture below and make your conclusion, God's abode can't be anything less than beyond description!


1 Corinthians 2:9
But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—

Revelation 21:1-27
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Nbotee:
Life is unfair and some ppl are also not being fair to demselves... Ayuba is crippled and is married to anoda crippled and dey beg for a living but somehow he's comfortable with birthing 4kids he cannot raise..

He is probably a Muslim with right to four wives but chooses to stick with one. That's all his mind could probably process, with that we can say he tried his little best. Had he two or more wives in that condition, I believe even the visitors empathy for him would have died a natural death.

Of what importance is the image to their faith if its indeed that of Mary? If they are spiritually enlightened they'll know the image is that of a disguising demon and not of Mary, who according to her obedience to God and submission to Christ must be in heaven right now and can never appear anywhere again in the world for any reason, especially to accept the worship that is due to God and Christ alone. This is usually a case of the blind leading the blind. Anyone praying to or honoring mary is nothing but an idol worshiper who will most definitely end up in hell. Nowhere did God command us to honor or worship Mary, not a single place in the whole Bible. She's in heaven now by God's grace just like any of the faithful and holy saints of God who endured and persevered to the end. God is no respecter of anyone!

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright

How this niggarrrrs are bold to get married baffles me..

Imagine me as a real niggarrr will be under same roof with one pussy for God knows how long...

I tried that shit when i invited..a lady down to my hotel room to spend one week with me
Damnnn shit...after two days the excitement was no longer there...my dickkk was no longer getting excited
Which means married people are just pretending...the love and excitement is no longer there...

You're simply disoriented by your mindset. So what do you think happened to young couples who refuse to remarry after their partner pass away suddenly. You think its a shock? Never! That will be easy to overcome after a while. It is what it is from time immemorial, genuine love and it still exist till now. There are a millions couples around the world living happily together. Change your mindset, associates and if possible your environment it will surprise you to know there are happy couples everywhere. As for endurance and challenges, are singles exempted from it? Even as single don't you endure your parents, your landlord, you endure schooling for years, you graduate to start enduring your employers and their insatiable demands and the least is endless. You even endure some of your friends and neighbors too, no escape from endurance whether single or married till death. The beautiy of marriage is that you're happy enduring and sacrificing for the one you love except one or both of you are children lacking in mental and spiritual understanding.

Angelfrost:
Well, that's probably because majority of society and the world still abhors and discriminates against them...

If they were accepted fully like their straight fellows (never gonna happen), they won't act the victim (which they are).

If you get a knock on your door and open just to find somebody standing on his head ready to walk into your apartment because he feels good doing so, how normal will that be to you? Nature itself teaches us a lot of things to keep us within limits, unfortunately our desire for undue freedom of expression makes us abhor such needful interference, while we desire to be understood by majority living within those sane limit. Gay or whatever you call it is a product of man's immoral decision, no sincere person can prove to be born this way. If LGBTQ decide to commit their sins secretly like fornicators and adulterers do, that will be their own problem, but to seek recognition and respect for doing so is simply unreasonable.

HuntSon:
Wetin this one dey talk? Everyone shouldn't be governed by religious sectarian principles in a secular state. So marry women and make heaven, leave people to their fate!

So you'll look away if your child choose to start stealing or bring home what does not belong to him in the name of freedom? God created us for his pleasure, his desire is for us to serve him in holiness not ourself or any other, and we must consciously see to it that we do not undermine the creators purpose that's where our joy lies. In otherword God did not create any secular state we made it so.

uvie66:
But how does this affect Ambode or Fashola since this is not an ex post facto law.

You don't seems to understand politicans, sometimes they wait for a perfect opportunity like this to get even, not minding if they are also affected just to achieve their desire. Ambode could easily pass off as a target in this particular game. Anyway if you read btw d lines of my comment you'll see it's just one of the possibilities.

Could this have been proposed without Tinubu's input and awareness? not likely! The whole idea may just be how to find a quick fix to his already battered image, repulsive public perception and dwindling political fortune and influence ahead of 2023. It could also be a way to spite or get rid of Ambode who is more to them like a bad penny that keeps coming back or a leprous finger that refuse to be severed, since as a former gov. he also share in this their largess. Unfortunately, to get rid of a tree permanently most times requires taking it off by it's root. One or two of this possibility may suffice!

The irony of such audacity and self discovery is that when he finally gets to meet with his creator, he'll realise how sane it is to not only play straight but live straight. God created all men straight but while men slept the devil subtly came in and sow tares into man's beautiful heart of wheat and went his way, and this is done to destroy the image of God in man and in the process spite God. May God help him to discover himself while there's still opportunity for him to do so.

“If I had stayed, it would have still been Tiwa. I felt like maybe it was also God’s plan for me to move on.”

God has no hand in anyone's sinful progression. If you had move from your past life to repentance may be fine, but to say God moved you from one level of sin to another level of sinning as part of his plan for your life is a self concocted deceit. How long will it take human beings to know that God is too holy to be involved in any act that gratifies the flesh. Any worldly vibe and song derives it's root from the devil and serves the flesh and worldly purposes alone, and anyone involve in promoting such songs in any form is the enemy of God.


1 john 2:15-16
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

James 4:4
You adulterers and adulteresses, don't you know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Our bigoted religiously fanatical brothers in the North don't know that the big men in their religion are only using the system to control their lives and generate fund while they are allowed to kill themselves so long as it doesn't affect their revenue. Even right here in Nigeria from Ganduje's sons marriage to Ajimobi's daughter to Ribadu's daughter and all the big men's children careless about such rigid lifestyle. And from Yemen to Saudi Arabia to Dubai all of them engage in unimaginable evil and revelry, but once out they pretend to be pious while their blind followers are left to die in poverty and servitude. The few ones that see through the game and are disenchanted take up arm in form of terrorism in order to get their own share, and the cycle continues.

The implication of participating in a trap like. BBN is that subsequently you become the official face of the devil, immoral lifestyle, ungodliness, rebellion and so on. I deliberately called it a trap and not a game because MJ in his day realised this too late, by the time he was awaken to reality he discovered that although the game may look like fun at the beginning but because it's a trap and not a game you can get in but can't get out anymore especially on your own. Given ones life to Christ may look like a decision for weaklings but our sophistication and revolutionary spirit won't avail much when the consequences of our disobedience began to unravel itself.

Reason there are countless numbers of women in hell. Moreso in our days women have become a complete tool in the hand of the devil. They do anything, they are fearless to do evil and think little about consequences or future, I really pity this race of human.

It's a horribly nauseating policy for an elected office holder who live freely on tax payers money for 4 or 8 years to continue to do so after vacating the seat and probably forever. With Draconian policies like this in full effect, how can a nation with lean resources ever grow out of the wood.

Since 1967 when the idiotic southerners joined force to fight Ndigbo and Biafrans, the northern elites have regarded the southerners as fools and nobodies.

stop this nonsense tribal tirade, enough has been said already It is the time to move forward.

Drybones:
I don't think anyone get called by God, we are equal in the eyes of the Lord.

God still call people today as of old, even though fake ones may be more than the genuine ones now.
We are indeed equal in God's eyes by redemption, but separated by anointing, position, sacrifice, and service.

Take your time to read all the scriptures below and see what you come up with.

Hebrew 5:4
And no one takes this honor on himself, but he receives it when called by God, just as Aaron was.

Acts 13:2
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.


Numbers 16:1-25
Korah, Dathan, Abiram, and On turned against Moses. (Korah was the son of Izhar. Izhar was the son of Kohath, and Kohath was the son of Levi. Dathan and Abiram were brothers, the sons of Eliab. And On was the son of Peleth. Dathan, Abiram, and On were descendants of Reuben.) These four men gathered 250 other men from Israel together and came against Moses. They were leaders who had been chosen by the people. All the people knew them. They came as a group to speak against Moses and Aaron and said, “You have gone too far—you are wrong! All the Israelites are holy—the LORD still lives among them. You are making yourselves more important than the rest of the still lives among them. You are making yourselves more important than the rest of the LORD’s people.” When Moses heard this, he bowed his face to the ground to show he was not being proud. Then Moses said to Korah and all his followers, “Tomorrow morning the LORD will show who belongs to him. He will show who is holy, and he will bring that man near to him. He will choose him and bring that man near to him. So Korah, you and all your followers should do this: Tomorrow put fire and incense in some special pans. Then bring those pans before the LORD. He will choose the man who is holy. You Levites have gone too far—you are wrong!” Moses also said to Korah, “You Levites, listen to me. You should be happy that the God of Israel chose you to be different from the rest of the Israelites. He lets you come near to him to do the special work in the LORD’s Holy Tent to help the Israelites worship him. Isn’t that enough? He brought you Levites near to him to help the priests, but now you are trying to become priests also. You and your followers have joined together and turned against the LORD! Did Aaron do anything wrong? No, so why are you complaining against Aaron?” Then Moses called Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab. But the two men said, “We will not come! You have brought us out of a land filled with many good things. You brought us to the desert to kill us. And now you want to show that you have even more power over us. Why should we follow you? You did not bring us into the new land filled with many good things. You did not give us the land God promised. You did not give us the fields or the vineyards. Will you make these men your slaves? No! We will not come.” So Moses became very angry. He said to the LORD, “I never did anything wrong to these people. I never took anything from them—not even a donkey! Don’t accept their gifts!” Then Moses said to Korah, “You and all your followers will stand before the LORD tomorrow. Aaron will also be there with you and your followers. Each of you must bring a pan, put incense in it, and present it to the LORD. There will be 250 pans for the leaders and one pan for you and one pan for Aaron.” So each man got a pan and put burning incense in it. Then they stood at the entrance of the Meeting Tent. Moses and Aaron also stood there. Korah also gathered all the people together at the entrance of the Meeting Tent. Then the Glory of the LORD appeared to everyone there. The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Move away from these men! I want to destroy them now!” But Moses and Aaron bowed to the ground and cried out, “God, you know what people are thinking. Please don’t be angry with all these people. Only one man really sinned.” Then the LORD said to Moses, “Tell the people to move away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.” Moses stood and went to Dathan and Abiram. All the elders of Israel followed him.

Proverbs 29:15
A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom, but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.

Your life may be yours but it's somebodies business. From cradle to the crest you were taught, financed and directed by well meaning people, one of which might be the uncle she's now dragging around.This generation is so full of shameless children adult, who no matter what is done to help them are bent on remaining stunted in their growth.

Somebody said going to hell as a rich man on earth is a very bad thing, but going to hell as a poor man on earth is worse. Whatever our possessions if you are not prepared for eternity with God in heaven you will be the most miserable of all men.

A good decision if I may say. But same people who don't drink can smoke themselves to death if possible, and aside their health implications both drunkards and smokers share the same eternal fate, so at the end nothing much is achieved as narcotics which is a greater evil and poses a greater health risk is given approval while alcohol is discriminated against.
And since this is done under the cover of religion it should be holistic, because serving God in pieces or selectively is tantamount to hypocrisy!
