Truetalk3139:Actually there is nothing like reincarnation, I've heard of such story which in no doubt are very real to the eyes and senses, but the devil been a chief deceiver/dissembler knows how to pull some pranks on gullible humans who are without God to achieve his mischievous goal. He achieves this through the activities of his numerous loyal comrades who disguise or put on the resemblance of those individuals that were adjudged late, to live freely among men thereby misleading sometimes, a whole community into believing such to be indisputable reality of life. What he intend to achieve is simple, to make humanity live carelessly by strengthening their believe in the possibility of living another life after this one is over. This is so that their soul search for God and question about life after death can be summarily dismissed or waved aside as inconsequential which further hardens their heart in sinful living, since according to them after this life they can still go elsewhere and start another life afresh. To your second prognosis, Jesus Christ was born, died and rose again over 2000 yrs ago when there were no colonial masters. Colonization started only in the 15th century and the gospel reached Africa way before then, historically not later than 30 AD which is in the 1st century. Your analysis is therefore flawed with many didactic, in the sense that you couldn't differentiate between missionaries and colonial masters, for instance christian missionaries like David Livingstone who are apolitical only spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, so do Mary Slessor and numerous others. They were sincere and selfless men/women who gave their all and gained nothing in return. Christian missionaries landmark achievement of establishing schools, educational centers and other social attractions to enhance evangelism brought about real positive change, as the people were able to learn to read and write. Many prominent people in our country like Pa Awolowo who went to mission school are testimony to the selfless service of this Christian missionaries, for which you and I should forever be grateful. |
SmartchildTutor:Many are actually aware of the fact that Jesus is the only true way to God. Their refusal is to enable them keep their good companies intact while it last, and also feather their nest. Devil is also abreast with this truth, reason he keep devising different ways to keep humanity divided along religious line with divergent and rigorous set of rules that'll take eternity to meet up with its endless demand, just to distract lost humanity and keep their eyes away from the saviour. There is no doubt for anyone to end well who follow in the foot step of Christ, and with all certainty, none can enter heaven who choose to have nothing to do with him. |
If that happens by any means, then I rejoice with him for he is already settled for all eternity. However, let's set the record straight that his escape probably like the thief on the cross must be through Jesus Christ alone; who is the The Way, The Truth and Life. The inherent danger however is that waiting too late to visit the hospital after a protracted illness may spell doom for the concern, reason you don't have to wait until your exit moment to find your way back to God through Jesus Christ. Else tout at the spiritual embassy watching to see your soul perish may hand you a forged document that'll put you in a state of false euphoria. |
Kai! This generation of semi wise fellow. Making a vow to God to have sex just twice only, where as it is clearly stated that one attempt is capable of sinking your soul in hell forever, thank God you are still alive to amend your ways. God cannot be mocked, taken permission to commit sin ahead of time is a believe generated from the pit of hell. God will never at any time, for anyone and under no circumstance, give permission to anyone to sin even if that'll be their last, so all those waiting to tow the path of preconfession of sin before commission should brace up to the consequences it hold. |
Onlinebar:The greatest life spent is the one spent in the service of the Lord. Soon mankind would realize nothing in itself has meaning outside God, for we are created to fulfill his pleasure. A wasted life is the life that finds daily expression and delight in sinful living, and eventually cut off without making amends, of such Jesus said it were better if that man/woman wasn't born at all! 1 cor 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. Psalm 84:10 For better is one day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of the wicked. Luke 16:15 Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of God." |
PigTormentor:Samson followed this same line of reasoning when his fall was imminent, unfortunately he learnt his lesson too late. There is little or nothing our common sense can do against the subtle wiles of the Devil, Jesus said watch and pray that's the antidote. You Know Jeff Bezos shared a great percentage of this common sense but was eaten up like a loaf of bread when these evil forces came against him and break up his family........the list is endless! 1 sam 2:9 He will guard the feet of His saints, But the wicked shall be silent in darkness. “For by strength no man shall prevail. 1 cor 10:12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. |
Joshmodest:So how do you want the pastor to know her source of wealth out of several other giver. The heart of man is deep, even most people only know what their spouse who is closest to them wish they know at any given time. As for the amount involve you saw only 1m paid as tithe but close your eye to the 139m paid on betting, from that lifestyle alone isn't it evident she isn't a serious child of God but one given to greed and covetousness, probably serving God on her own terms. |
Dotherightthing:Not sure it's a problem on this forum. Everyone trying to create a unique identity & signature, take CAPSLOCK for instance who love to post in capital letter. |
While we are here celebrating iniquity and immorality in the name of a reality show, a seemingly important event is being cancelled. |
Adultery center open for public view, Church on close down. Very pathetic! |
SegFault:On a serious note, How long does it take a specie of animal like dinosaur to go into extinction? I don't know how you find it difficult to believe that although that could be varied myths and legends from different quarters but none have been so detail, specific and accurate like the ones obtained in the Bible. May be you'll do well to read it carefully with open mind. |
Its sickening to the soul to know there are people in-charge of the affairs of this country. How do we go from here, Profitable Institutions are kept at abeyance while sordid program such as this are allowed to resume airing. |
SegFault:Who debunks reality?!...Even people who have not met your mum and dad know you have one, so what is the basis of your rant or did you fall from the sky? my friend nothing exist in a vacuum and nature itself abhors that. |
Party affiliation does not equate or guaranty good governance. An individual candidate with brilliant idea will move a Nation forward than those who filter away their promises to the masses due to loyalty to some political power brokers. |
All Animal are created and giving to man for his pleasure. It is left for him to eat the one that appeal to his appetite. However if you consider anyone unclean or not good for you, don't guilt trip others into same reasoning. On that basis therefore, there can be nothing like animal cruelty as there is no animal whether wild or domesticated that can be killed in a friendly manner. Gen 9:1-7 1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered. 3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. 4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. 5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man’s brother will I require the life of man. 6 Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. 7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. Romans 14:14 I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean. |
EngineerBode:Very insightful and apt. Nothing in natural sense can be truer than this! |
Going from such a life of opulence to prison is hardly ever an experience to be celebrated or desired by anyone, even though there is still hope of release someday. But to go from such a life of opulence to Hell fire where there'll be no hope whatsoever again of a release for all eternity is a worm(memory) that shall not be quenched. Even though the young man epitomizes what a role model should not be, unfortunately in the eyes of God he's not the worst sinner. Gods charge therefore to us as a Nation and a society that has become dysfunctional in all ramifications because of greed and corruption is that ''except we repent and live the right kind of life that pleases God we shall all perish''. Luke 13:1-2 Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? No, I say to you; but unless you repent, you will all perish likewise. |
AnnyBarna:So Jesus is what you turned Scissors and even went further adding Christ to show you are ready to damn the consequence. If you are wise you'll remove that pic, ask God for mercy and thread softly with spiritual matters even if you are an atheist. |
PrecisionFx:They will be judged equally like any other human. With God there is neither tribal restriction nor limitation, reason he gave all the gift of conscience. Acts 17:31 For He has set a day when He will judge the world with justice by the Man He has appointed. He has given proof of this to all men by raising Him from the dead.” |
Plenty of mystical alienations with many underlying direct or indirect connotations. By direct I mean direct occultic involvement, By indirect I mean he might have had a great grand father or father with past history of serious occultic involvement, and probably he was brought up within such atmosphere running errands and being unconcsiously fortified thereto. Whatever it is he was never able to disentangle himself from such activities before death came calling. The Bottom line: He was truly not ready to die yet, but death seems to play a fast one on him. The Lesson: Be prepare for there is a thin line between life and death, and it could just be anyones turn today wether you are fulfilled or not. Don't die unprepared and don't die in the heat and bitterness of soul, It will be eternally conterproductive! |
Lesson learnt: The will of the people prevails, in unison man can do anything aside subverting the will of God. |
Burning for centuries and yet unquenchable by the large surrounding body of water nearby. If this earthly smoke is unquenchable by man, it sounds pretty funny when some people think they can try to quench the fire of hell. Brace up everyone and escape the fire of hell that burns till eternity by repenting of your fornication, adultery, blasphemy, unbelief, and rebellion. Jesus Christ is the only means of escape available to us, ignore the foolish and devilish postulations of man trying to categorise him as black or white, with derogatory depiction, they'll all acount for their folly on that great day! |
A never ending project. The shame of a Nation! |
Honestly speaking no political office holder in Nigeria at present deserve more than a 2years stint in office not to talk of contemplating a second term. Taking a second shot at any political office should be predicated on an extraordinary performance during the first tenure, unfortunately wether bottom up or the other way round, nothing at all justify their contious stay or comeback. Not until we have someone at the helms of affairs in this country under whose watch and leadership, 70-75% of Nigerians can afford a decent three square meal, no much ado about where to lay their head(accomodation), with the availabity of a standard health care facilties accessible to all. Until this minimum benchmark in governance is achieved no political office holder as presently constituted truly deserves such priviledge. |
olumide4christ:Unfortunately, He didn't mention any specific instance where christians flouted the NCDC rule? Let's not jump at defending people who batter our faith to increase the value of their pay cheque just to save face. Generalisation is bad and evil and synonymous with stereotyping, and must be discouraged in totality. . |
ajl:He isn't. A man who stands for nothing fall for everything, and FYI he stood for a just cause, can you say the same thing for yourself? Can you stand for Christ everywhere you go, are you ashamed of your faith? THink about that! Luke 9:2 If anyone is ashamed of me and my message, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in his glory and in the glory of the Father and the holy angels. |
sigiyaya:So what do you call the over 100 Doctors and Nurses that died in Italy? You guys are simply against christianity with your hate filled narratives but someday you'll all meet your water loo. Christains are the most peaceful and law abiding citizens world over, check this out and counter my assertion if you find anything to the contrary. |
samsard:You just could be a nuisance to others on this forum as well, every man to himself. If you hate what he stands for, why not scroll down. |
MahatmaGhandi:Just look at a man who was elevated by God like Mordecai to defend the cause of the christians, spewing out an unfounded claim in a very base and deraogatory manner against the same set of people. Even Muslims in their dreamland wont castigate their faith in such a bbranzing manner as this man has done just to get along. Reason they sometimes don't take us seriously as we lack coherence in our deliveries and posturing. |
Investnow2017:Can you cite an instance where this happened lately? Don't allow sentiment and emotion becloud your sensne of reasoning. On a lighter mode I have not seen a set of people on earth who live and let others live like the christians. |
DexterousOne:And can you mention the one you noticed lately? |
PureGoldh:I wonder if we have a better procedure, face and nose mask than the Italians and US citizens who died in droves and are still in a panick/shock mode. A NIREC meeting that should serve a mediatory role for seeking peace and encouraging religious effiort is what the SFG turned a one sided religious bashing and many christians can't see the abnormality in the quoted verses but are too gullible to take the hate filled admotion hook, line and sinker. A government that cannot feed its citizen for just 2weeks out of the over one month lockdwon have no moral compass to insult those who did, if we all had died of hunger during the lockdwon will he be here quoting the book of proverbs to dead people(christians)? This is the pictorial representation of when hypocrisy rules. Suffice to say that, many churches came to the rescue of not just their memebers alone but their community with foodstuffs and various forms of lifeline when people like muric were silent, and the Govt. he represents can't give just a 1000 naira to each of its citizen. Kumuyi, Oyedepo, Adeboye, Eneche donated hansomely at the break of the pandemic and you think this people are fools who cannot also give a handful of safety mesasure to their congretation and christians in general? Instead of looking inward he's looking outward! |
