You based your arguement on Adultery not for the singles. To commit an adultery you have to be married first.

Christianity EtcRe: Which Religion Produces More "area Boys" (tout) In Nigeria. by skyone(m): 1:29pm On Feb 20, 2008
last year some group of police men arrested 6 area boys in Mushin and out of curiosity and as a part time journalist i managed to jot down their names for media purpose. Here are their first names:

Jamiu
Kazeem
Ismaila
Tajudeen
Hamed
and
Ibrahim all arrested for insurgence and assault

As soon as i got to Oshodi another arrest surfaced, of course same as to go in my local gazette and whose names are

moshood
rasaki
ibro and musiliu

Am sure Dafidixone must have had same experience and came across similar names;thus concluding of posting this thread.
Christianity EtcRe: Faith Tabernacle Puts Nigeria In Guinness Book Of World Records by skyone(m): 11:43am On Feb 20, 2008
4Him:
I certainly am not saying Pastor Oyedepo shld not give God the glory for the building . . . i'm only asking of what purpose is that building? The propagation of the gospel or a source of pride as this thread has turned out to be?
I’m glad you finally answered one of my questions posed to you ( Pastor Oyedepo should give glory to God for the building) and I can rightly tell you he gives glory God in all of his endeavours. Purpose of the building? Whao you’ve asked this same question several times and answer has been given to you severally. However the purpose is for the following (i) To gather thousands in order to praise and worship Almighty God, and (ii) Where thousands of unbelievers can be saved. I hope that answered your question.

4Him:
Jesus Christ didnt build auditoriums . . . many times He kept Himself away from the crowd (many of whom were more interested in more fishes and loaves - John 6) . . . but He made an impact that we still feel 2000yrs after.
What is the impact of Canaanland beyond its real estate investments? Are we any better spiritually? .
Jesus didn’t build an auditorium but He pulled the crowd by the Sea of Galilee. Get your understanding right, “many of whom where interested in fishes and loaves” Jesus meant material things here i.e. cars, honey, houses, shoes etc. A church or a tabernacle is not.

4Him:
Peter, James and John would be more interested in the word than the temple.
Sure but they will all the same give glory to God for His great and mighty works on earth i.e. Faith Tabernacle, R.C.C.G camp etc.

4Him:
The roadmap of salvation has nothing to do with massive physical buildings . . . Christ shed His blood that MEN may be saved not for you to go around getting in the guiness book of records.
Mister, Guinness book of record officials and researchers are those who go about the world to look for new adventurous things not people or Pastor Oyedepo who contact them. 


4HIM in life you can’t always win, there are times you need to humble yourself and admit your mistake. And by doing so, you are paving way for knowledge. As for this thread I believe my point has been passed across to you by admitting all positive achievements is for the glory of  Almighty God, for example you buying a new house. Meet you on other threads
Christianity EtcRe: Faith Tabernacle Puts Nigeria In Guinness Book Of World Records by skyone(m): 6:32pm On Feb 19, 2008
4Him:
when i passed my exams i gave glory to God . . . when i buy a new house i will do the same . . . but i more than understand that material things like cars and houses are not what matters to God. Unlike religious hypocrites like detruth, i know that what is more important to Christ is 1 soul that repents (there is joy in heaven over that 1 soul) and not the presence of my church in the guiness book of records,
Thanks for answering my question; so what's disqualifying Detruth and Pastor Oyedepo from giving glory to God regarding that magnificient terbanacle in Nigeria? for sure material things is meaningless to God but does that mean churches are now material things? Detruth must be deceiving himself if that's the case but i hope not. One soul that repent  that's true though but what about having a large auditorium where thousands can be saved and hear the word of God comfortably,' what do you think about that?

4Him:
lol mr. skyone . . . you people need to study your scriptures more. Peter, James and John were illiterate fishermen . . . yet their shadows raised the dead.

Look at what Paul himself had to say about his "great education" and "academic standard" . . . Phil 3: 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ
If Peter, James, and John were to be alive today they will surely give glory to God on behalf of Faith Tabernacle no doubt about that. yes that's true about Paul but what has that got to do with building a cathedral and giving the glory to God!

4Him:
My dear . . . u don't get my point. You people keep desperately twisting anything to justify your ridiculous views. God gives you the grace to build skyscrapers . . . where it becomes a problem is when that building becomes a symbol of your own covetousness.

How many "christians" come on these boards to celebrate a healing or a miracle or a soul that they led to Christ? Rather all we see are noise makers shouting about the size of their churches.
No, you are wrong, you are only resisting to admit the fact that you mis-understand Detruth thread in the first place. I don't think the building faith tabernacle is a commodity necessity for Pastor Oyedepo, i'm sure he base that building as road map for salvation and God'sMinistry. Christian may have posted threads concerning great healing and you not knowing about that, however you and i can start with one

Christianity EtcRe: Have You Praised Him Yet, Today? by skyone(m): 3:36pm On Feb 19, 2008
olabowale:
Today my stepchildren call me dad and so are my neices and nephews and other people who i could have as children. Am I truly their father? The aswer is no. I like 4Him, as an example. My older son and him are practically in the same age. Could i claim him as my son? No. This is even a relationship between human beings. Now let me turn to the relationship between God and man: If you are truly Children of God, why does he severely punish you when you transgress against Him. And He has prepared the Hellfire for you? Is this the way you punish your son? No. So your claiming to be the child of God, is your own saying, only.
Does it mean you are pleased with your children's misbehaviour? What will you do to a son of yours who has killed his siblings plus other children, steals and constantly raping under-age girls; i guess report him to the authority so that he can be kept in the prison before he turns round and kill you. This is the beauty of hell fire, hell is for the sinners and heaven is for the righteous therefore you have a choice to make.

olabowale:
God does not want His creation as children, nor does he accept that kind of relation from you. It will be a means of regret for you at the point of death, if you remain stedfast on that lie. Finally, I am grateful that i could wake up at Night and purify myself and supplicate to Him. I am not too proud to beg and there is no shame in crying or weeping either. Real men do cry. I am sure you don't. A heart as hard as a nail do not weep. Even when you lift up a stone after a rainfall, you will see that the soil that it sits on is wet. This is beyond your league. You will not get it now. Not yet, at least. Maybe tomorrow.
Are you talking about a.llah here or Jehovah( the biblical God)? Accusing or calling God a lier is not adviseable, don't curse yourself to death.

You lack absolute understanding of the bible, i dont even know where to start with you. I advise you find yourself a good bible college.

TravelRe: So Many Fire Incidents In Lagos: Why? by skyone(m): 1:20pm On Feb 19, 2008
because the state govt thinks her people are nothing but shits; therefore market planning, town and urban planning, normal state owned infrastructure are waste of time to these leaders.

This makes some people to run out of ideas when it comes to house keeping and enviromental sanitation, in fact when you pay a visit to these places you can't really blame some of them as the condition there is out of order. Randomely i'll blame the govt for lack of responsibility.

Christianity EtcRe: Faith Tabernacle Puts Nigeria In Guinness Book Of World Records by skyone(m): 8:47am On Feb 19, 2008
Hello friend, was busy all tru d wkend anyway i'm back to reply u.

4Him:
That the church is the largest in the world has nothing to do with God's glory . . . He is there in the midst of 2 or 3 people who are sincerely gathered together in His name.
When he meant 2 or 3 poeple He didn't say 2 or 3 only but as many as possible, there's no limit to it. However you still haven't answered my question " Who do you give glory to when you passed your exams or bought a new house"!

4Him:
that is one more "belief" that has no place in the bible. Inferior to others in terms of what? Wealth? Where was Apostle Peter's guiness book of records building? Christ said His disciples would be persecuted and hated for His sake . . . where did Oyedepo get his revelation from?
You didn't understand me here at all. Now as a child or servant of God you are meant to enjoy the abundant blessing, , prosperity, health, salvation, anoiting, long-life etc and i'm sure you will agree with me that this blessing is there for us to enjoy. Therefore i believe Pastor Oyedepo is no exceptional. Yes, 'not inferoir because i belief christians should not live a substandard life, you can be wealthy and still live your life 30years behind, so inferiority is not narrowed down to being poor or wealthy. Apostle Paul was a great educationist and through his academic standard he was able to impact the poeple at a larger scale.

4Him:
that is false. Ever seen the pyramids? Who empowered them to build it?
Ever see the statute of liberty in the US?
Ever seen the largest building on earth?

To whose glory are those?
You sound ridiculous here, You should have asked who empowered you to have a sound education or to performing well at work! was is it by your might?

Now back to your weak analogy, christians, great ones and mormons believe in the existence of "a god" . . . not just God. The christian believes that his God is clearly distinct from those of others and the rationale for this is in the bible.
ABSOLUTELY
Christianity EtcWhy You Should Give Him The Honour He Deserve. Alpha & Omega by skyone(op): 5:40pm On Feb 15, 2008
This thread was initially posted by BMCC one of my friends on nairaland and the reason why i have personally use it as a new thread is manily to awaken the reasoning of those insulting God Almighty, those who think their brian is bigger than their skull and those who want to be famous on nairaland through delusion and fictions of no benefits to mankind., "the hypocrites".

Here it is :
John Lennon  (Singer):

Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:  "Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to  argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple,

Today we are more famous than Him" (1966).

Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.



Tancredo Neves   (President of Brazil ):

During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from

his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.

Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President,

then he died .

     

Cazuza  (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):

During A show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro ),  while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said:

"God, that's for you."

He died at the age of 32 of AIDS  in a horrible manner.



The man who built the Titanic

After the construction of the Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the

Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it"

The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic .



Marilyn Monroe  (Actress)

She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show.

He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her.

After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said:

"I don't need your Jesus".

A week later, she was found dead in her apartment .



Bon Scott  (Singer)     

The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:

"Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell".

On the 19th of  February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit .



Campinas   (IN 2005)

In Campinas , Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend, 

The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter - holding her hand,

who was already seated in the car:

"My Daughter, Go With God And May He Protect You, "

She responded: "Only If He (God) Travels In The Trunk, Cause Inside Here, It's Already Full "

Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be recognized what type  of car it had  been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.

The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact.

To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none were broken .



Christine Hewitt  (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer)

Said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written.

In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle .



Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus.

Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive .

In all manners i believe you have insulted my GOD, JEHOVAH AND THE HOLY ONE OF ISREA[/b]L to extent that is unbearable, if you do not repent sincerely from sin within the next [b]7 DAYS, this is what will happen to you

(1) You will suffer helplessly and not be seen
(2) Your days on earth will be cut short
(3) Your fruits will be cursed.


Unless JESUS does not remain THE KING OF KINGS and THE LORD OF LORDS then you are free from the above. Carry on, even your leader satan will not dear test the anger of the ALMIGHTY, THE GOD OF ABRAHAM,ISAAC AND JACOB.

A word is enough for the wise and couple of warning is enough for the foolish ones.

Christianity EtcRe: Faith Tabernacle Puts Nigeria In Guinness Book Of World Records by skyone(m): 12:46pm On Feb 15, 2008
i'm at work but i just have to respond to posts.

4Him:
@ skyone, thank you and i'm not mad at u either.

that is true but again it begs the question . . . when we use the phrase "to God be the glory" what do we mean? Are we really giving God the glory or is it one of those things we just learnt to say as Christians? A lot of us use several "christian-sounding" phrases . . . decieving ourselves that we are just selflessly giving all the praise to God when in fact it is simply a disguise for our own pride.

Read the 3rd temptation of Christ. The devil showed Him all the eart, the great buildings, the wonderful temple of solomon, the beautiful gardens of Isreal, the fantastic ark of the covenant . . . what was Christ's response? To God be the glory?
see here - John 18: 36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

Why does Christ say His kingdom is not of this world? why does He refer to the enemy as the prince of this world?
The bible says "heaven and earth shall pass away" . . . including our guiness book of records buildings BUT His word shall NEVER pass away. How many times have we put earthly things above His word while crying "to God be the glory"?
4HIM, to be honest you are quite right but who else should we give glory to if not God. God has empowered this man and gave him the vision to build that synagogue and i'm sure he will not be foolish enough not to give back the glory to God Almighty. It is written that the blessings of God must reflect in the lives of His true believers, He said to Abraham i will bless you and you shall become a blessing[i]( Sorry i dont have my bible with me here i would have refered u to the particular chp + verse)[/i] and it goes on to his generations and which we are part of the family. The basis of this araguement is the church "Faith Terbanacle popuplarly known as Winners" is virtually the biggest in the world and i believe any right thinking man will give glory to God not Pastor Oyedepo or the contractors behind it. It was wholly built to win souls for the kingdom of God and i believe again that God Himself will be happy about it. Now, either in the end time the church vanish or not that is left to God. Pastor Oyedepo has done what God has sent him to do.

4Him:
I'm just surprised though . . . why didnt Christ acquire the finest temple in Jerusalem for His ministry? Why borrow a colt to ride to jerusalem? why borrow Peter's ship to go preaching? Why? didnt he love good things too?
I'm not saying God wants us to be poor . . . but why do we over-emphasise earthly belongings over the important?

detruth is not an admirer of God's work because God did not build that building. detruth is an admirer of a man-made architectural master-piece . . .

Without God . . . Abu Dhabi is today building the world's first oasis in the desert . . . without God we have the leaning tower of Pisa . . .
Well i'm sure you know Jesus christ gave you everything you have, i also believe if Jesus should come to you to borrow your automobile you will be happy and honoured to lend him. Now' the fact that he humbled himself to borrow from his disciples does not mean He is not not rich. As a matter of fact Jesus does not see only material things as wealth he sees more that you and i do not know about. Yes some people over-emphasise but not everbody, for example pastor Oyedepo aim at winning souls and believes as a servant of the Almighty you are not mend to be inferior to others.

Either the Deruth is an admirer of God's work or not is not for me to judge, as per God not building the building'of course yes, God is too sacred and holy to start driving tractors but i believe He has empowered both Pastor Oyedepo and the contractors in order for that building to be in place. Without him nothing good is possible.
