PHIPEX:
Jesus said, birds have nexts, fox has holes butbThe Son of man (Jesus) does not have a house.

When he was to observe the last supper he had to borrow a house. When he was to enter Jerusalem he had to borrow a donkey

LoL... You said the disciples were poor and couldn't pay tax, show me evidence from the Bible they were poor and couldn't pay tax because they were poor.

KennethOkonkwo:
Christianity doesn't operate on scripture

Wow... What does Christianity operate on please teach me

ThothHermes:
He visited Peter's mother-in-law.

show me from the Bible that says Peter's Mother in law was poor

immaculatesense:
It is not everything that scriptural texts are available for. Some things don't just make sense.
Let me ask you. Is there any scriptural texts where Jesus visited AN AFRICAN/BLACK MAN? Does that mean Jesus hated Africans/Blacks because there is not biblical text? Some things are just coming sense.
If Jesus did not associate with the poor. Tell me how many of his disciples were rich. Didn't Jesus live with them and dine with them or visited them in their homes?

Thanks.

In other words you agree with the Pastor that Jesus never visited the poor... Okay noted...

Mom007:
...

you missed the point... The Pastor said Jesus never visited the poor, so show me a scripture that proves the Pastor lied so that ignorant people like me can know and attack the Pastor like others are doing.

[quote author=Babaibeji2020 post=135047642][/quote]you have missed the point.. you still haven't provided Bible evidence that Jesus visited the poor... I will love to learn so that I can attack the Pastorconstructively and not out of ignorance.

PHIPEX:
His entire 12 disciples were so poor that they could not pay tax. Jesus had to perform a miracle to raise tax money

There is no evidence that says they were so poor that they couldn't pay tax... Show me the scripture

NuCypher:
about it. But then, what do I know, there's no spinning these pastors won't pursue if it increases the stream of cash flow into their bank accounts.

Truth is many pastors are guilty of scheming to trying to get more money from members and it's really annoying and some persons are becoming wiser...

mastermaestro:
He visited Peter's house who was not known to be rich other than being a follower of CHRIST. Nowhere in the Scriptures is Peter noted for being rich.

Matthew 8:14-15 KJV
"And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever. [15] And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them."

Now that's not the part that bothers me. The part where he said" JESUS hates the poor" is the real gaffe for me. He should be bold and apologetic enough to retract that part. That part is an affront on Scriptures.

Proverbs 17:5 KJV
"Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished."

This is the testimony of JESUS CHRIST Himself.
Matthew 11:4-5 KJV
"Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: [5] The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them."

The apostles also reminded Paul about the poor.
Galatians 2:10 KJV
"Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do."

Is there any evidence to show in the Bible that Peter's Mother in law was poor?

helinues:
Perhaps you are referring to those who have sworn to whatever not to see the development of Nigeria because they hate the president. Such kind of background must be laced with toxicity

Noted Sir... I agree with your opinion which implies that those that support bad policies of politicians are people with irresponsible fathers ..

As much as I don't even agree with Pastor Ibiyeomie on some of his teachings, but it would have been better if these Pastors bring out scriptures to counter the Pastor and show where Jesus visited a poor man or woman so that some of us that are ignorant can learn... Let me leave it for senior Pastors of Nairaland, please show us scriptures where Jesus visited a poor man or woman so that ignorant people like me can learn...

helinues:
Truth be told..

The father of that boy is irresponsible . If at that age, that boy can have confidence to block car convoy, then the boy might be desperate to do whatever

Are you also implying that the people who are on nairaland supporting wicked politicians with their bad policies are people who their fathers are irresponsible?

Thelannister:
Google one of the most feared nation in the world you find Nigeria on the 15th on the list.

We have a great country with dump leaders, hence these leaders/rulers use to be very smart and intelligent until they find their ways in the cultism called politics.

This is very misleading... Infact we are actually number 15 in the most dangerous countries in the world, it has a lot to do with insecurities than anything good... It's not something to be proud of....

Freestainworld:
This current USA is becoming something else everyday because of Trump.

What was it under Biden?

FreeSpirited:
I won't go into the story. It's a long crazy one. But pastors will understand what I'm saying .... And if you have not counselled a heartbroken woman either married or single... You can never understand. How I escaped without crashing totally is a mystery.

I do tell people that Pastors need prayers more than members cos the temptation is just too much especially sexual temptation and others... For example it's when it's time to preach you will understand the next level of temptation that is even higher than sexual temptation... In your words, only Pastors will understand...

Kreesxxx:
Fubara made it to look so. Meanwhile those of us who are not Ijaw see Wike as the person bold enough to tell Ijaw the truth. The same thing Wike said Tom Polo just said it. Ijaw is only majority in Bayelsa. They are minority elsewhere in the Niger Delta. Any appointments that come to the Niger Delta Ijaw believes they must own it. They believe they are synonymous with Niger Delta. There are other big tribes in Niger Delta as well.

Yeah you are right... Are you from South East or South South?

ruggedtimi:
In Opobo/Bonny, Igbo is commonly spoken, a tradition that dates back to the era of the transatlantic slave trade. The Igbo people were frequently sold as slaves through the Bonny route, and many chose to remain in Bonny, leading to the dominance of the Igbo language in the area. King Pepple of Bonny was a prominent figure in the slave trade.

However, the prevailing culture in Bonny/Opobo is Ijaw. Their customs, attire, titles, and names originate from the Ijaw tribe. Additionally, they have their own Ijaw language, Ibani

well written and let me add... They chose to speak Igbo for fear of the Igbos understanding Ibani, unknown to them it will lead to the near extinct of their language Ibani... Most younger folks from Opobo/Bonny can't speak their original dialect..

CaptainFM1:
No be Timaya be Egberipapa?

That's the real Ebgeripapa not Timaya

Aldebaran:
US think say na only am get craze for head

go back and read what is written before you comment... Lol

Quarterpast:
Really?

While I agree with wike that it was actually too early for the now Axed Fubara to show his true colors, it is also wrong for wike to treat him in that manner. For God's sakes, how many of Wike's predecessors subjected him to such? Wike picked all of FUBARA's commissioners, handpicked all FUBARA's appointees such as to be in control of FUBARA's govt. Then he wanted to be getting his percentage from Rivers monthly subvention. Wike isn't fair to FUBARA, but if I was fubara, I wouldn't have acted so fast. Politics is about tactics

Fubara did very well... Even if he doesn't come back again at least he will be a former Governor... Wike underrated Fubara and he is still in severe pains cos things are not the way he planned it...

concho:
Reminds me of Nkechi

.

nice story... Is there a way you can complete it

illicit:
Does she rim ur anus...?

Lol

chumaZ:
tinupoo in the mud

I am not his supporter but this bill when passed into law favours him more than any other candidate..

tundegan:
Tinubu is a man of the people.

The opposition should just accept the fact that he is the president and move on.

They have accepted the fact he is the president that's why they are trying hold him accountable as the president to adhere to the constitution...

ElevationD:
A


Agreed with you.

Certainly they follow different leaders. The Rivers woman, going by her name must be an Ikwerre woman and a Wike supporter. Afterall Wike said that he purchased the nomination forms for all of them. The other lady, is an Ijaw woman.

Do not forget that Wike and Seriake Dickson had their own misunderstandings too.

I think that the excesses of Wike must be checkmated. Not only has he caused trouble for the people of Rivers state, he has put the whole country in high alert and the Nigerian economy in danger.

It's also good to Women like the one from Bayelsa standing for the truth while men are quiet or maybe scared to take a stance..

kingslj:
Okay ... tell your sister to put on a love tattoo her face .. lets see if you will like it

LoL... I am happy you couldn't defend the fact that what you said earlier is not related to the topic... As for me telling my sister to draw love tattoo, there is no where in the write up where it was said it was her brother that told her to draw the tattoo so you are still not in order... Lol

Agbegbaorogboye:
Obi should stop releasing statements if he knows he's too confused to take a stand on issues

Just look at the nonsense statement he's releasing

Who asked him for prayers? Is he a priest?

It's obvious he doesn't have the balls to be an opposition leader

Just compare his statement with that of Atiku and see how weak and mediocre he looks!

Who are his media handlers??

You just wrote what is on my mind... I support Obi but he is also playing politics with such statement..

kingslj:
nobody likes the madman to be his brother, but we all look

not related... LoL.. there is no relationship between looking at mad man and loving sex...

MrCGPA:
Dr. Paul Enenche is one of the few pastors I truly respect in Nigeria. He is genuine in his approach to Christianity, unlike some so-called pastors who rely on fake powers. His impact is recognised globally, and he is respected for his unwavering commitment to spreading the gospel. Dr. Enenche has taken Christianity to challenging regions, including the Arab world, such as Pakistan and other places where Christianity is not widely accepted.

His ministry is a true testament to his dedication, and may God continue to bless and elevate it. It is inspiring to see how he tirelessly spreads the message of faith, embarking on crusades across various regions within Nigeria – from the South East to the South South, and back to the core North, all within the span of a week. His energy and passion for the work of God are truly remarkable.

the same way you are saying some so called pastors rely on fake powers same way other persons will be saying Pastor Paul relies on fake powers ... In your trying to praise one , don't pull down others.... I like Pastor Paul by the way...

Putindbutt:
Then , let's join those who would not abstain.

it's not in our interest to go against the two strongest Nations on earth...

Putindbutt:
If everybody abstained, how will there be peace and justice in the world?.

it's about personal interest.. Nigeria abstaining doesn't mean everybody will abstain

ogascomax:
Nigeria should abstain not voting. We need to learn how to play international politics. You want to be part of BRICS yet you are voting against one of them. No be mumu be that.

My thoughts exactly.... Nigeria should never go against USA , , instead they should abstain
