₦airaland Forum

Even if I was given a bribe of one billion pounds I still would not cry for any Naija leader. My body would refuse to produce tears.

Its easier said than done. Almost everyone knows that selling something generates money but not everyone can sell. Some people are perpetual buyers of other peoples goods and services.

musKeeto:
I don't know if you realise but nairaland ha something called notifications. If that doesn't satisfy you, you can check the timestamps of my post. Also check my recent posts too on my profile. If that still doesn't satisfy you, then bear with me.

I was just joking o.

@ i_DO, Tenkobe, musKeeto, 9icelag, dagboss, Hustle, RealTruth, Lecanno, Cautious, Sovpounds, saxywale, felifeli, debrief08, hercules07, numo86, Tunjman, karpenter YOU ARE ALL BLESSED NOT ONLY WITH TRUTH AND REVELATION OF GOD'S WORD BUT ALSO WITH THE MIND OF CHRIST. And to our other christian brothers and sisters who doesn't share same view with us, YOU ARE ALL BLESSED TOO.

I will like to point out here that none of the people mentioned above including me are anti-Christ nor are we anti church as church is Christ's institution and place of worship to the Most High God who had redeemed our sinful nature through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ; but we are anti-religion(True religion to God does not neglect the poor, orphans, those who are hungry, judgment and love as Christ loved us) and religious people who, having the form of godliness but denying the power thereof and obviously thinks that when we give our lives to Christ, that we lost our minds, thinking God will descend down to come solve the problems we can solve by ourselves. Americans developed America and so other developed countries. We share the light of the biblical truth. When the word of God says: Romans 12:2: Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will (New International Version), it’s talking about the same thing in Philippians 2:5, Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. It's talking about attitudes and same character as if it were Jesus Christ. We can read other translations for more understand. I HOPE WE START BIBLICAL STUDY OF TRUTH HERE ON NAIRALAND SOON SO AS TO LIBERATE THE MINDS OF OUR FELLOW CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN LOVE.

I just read what Adeboye himself said: I quote and amplify

http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/news/29721-adeboye-urges-nigerians-to-seek-god%E2%80%99s-face.html

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
It is amazing that the so called God’s people (religious people) are the same wicked people in wicked ways and activities. God respects His word and principles, not persons. He loved us as sinners but hate our sins and wickedness that has plagued our land Nigeria.

Now in the light of Adeboye’s word, I guess we should question or will love to start reading about Redeemed Christian Church of God and other big churches in Nigeria taking responsibilities along side with the government. They should also start sacrificing for the orphans, poor, unemployed rather than flying in private jets and also taking responsibilities to participate in moving our dear country forward rather than all this yearly gathering and noise, am not condemning these gatherings, they are good as I also attend here in United States where I reside. But we should also start to see actions as to how their large congregation contributes to national development. Religious people obviously thinks that when we give our lives to Christ, that we lost our minds, thinking God will descend down to come solve the problems we can solve by ourselves. Americans developed America and so other developed countries. God will help those who help themselves, meaning we all, including these churches and so called men of God have to take responsibilities, sacrifice, work hard and think right as the preacher (Adeboye) had said.

Thanks for declaring me as BLESSED.

musKeeto:
All nicely said.

BE CAREFUL: Even drug dealers help their community. That's why on the 1st page I said we should ignore the private jets and poor people. There will always be poor people.

You claim to be close to the leadership of the RCCG. I'm a member of the finance department in my local parish(RCCG). I would like you to state openly on this thread how money goes from a local parish in a remote village all the way to the national secretariat: how much percentage of tithes is submitted, money from the different fellowships etc. If you are what you claim to be, you should be privy to such information.

The focus of most my posts here has been on improving human's ability to think and solve problems on their own. After God created Adam, it was his job to name the animals. Would we in the name of miracles throw research down the drain? Would we in the name of financial breakthrough become sluggards?

musKeeto is still on this thread after more than 15 hours!!!!! Have you contributed on any other thread besides this??

odiaero:
^^ Bro no come start ebook wahala here

Lol. Bro e dey free, if you no need am other brothers and sisters fit need am.

www dot dealfish dot com dot ng slash help slash contact slash

REAL TRUTH:
RCCG as it is presently constituted and operated is nothing but a joke,,,,pay attention very deeply, get involve with them,,,you noticed the inconsistencies,,,,The church actually started well,,,,but in the last 20years,,,,it has lost its values,,,

There is no church on earth where all the members would go to Heaven. Every church is made up of the good, the bad and the ugly.

debrief08:
Sovpounds more verses you should read:
1st Corinthains 3 21: So then, [b]no more boasting about human leaders! All things are yours, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas[c] or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours, 23 and you are of Christ, and Christ is of God[.[/b]

So no more Boosting God of Adeboye, my Papa My Daddy, My Church because all is ours and we are all of Christ and Christ only is our God.

I believe Pastor E. A. Adeboye is a true man of God but I no dey carry am for head, I dont get emotional when other people have contrary opinions or when some people label him a fake or a fraudster.

The Lord knoweth those who are his according to 2 Timothy 2:19.

debrief08:
James 5 :2020 But those elders who are sinning you are to reprove before everyone, so that the others may take warning. 21 I charge you, in the sight of God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels, to keep these instructions without partiality, and to do nothing out

st Corinthains 5 9-13: I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[c] but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.

12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you

Read your bible well my friend. The Bible clearly tells us to Judge one another so that the body of Christ can be clean, it only says we shouldnt judge outsiders we shopuld let God Judge them.
It also states we should publiclly rebuke Church elders and Pastors who do wrong so others can learn>
Why are yoou crying about being insulted, you are nthe one that started with silly curses

I love the word of God. Thanks so much for that verse, I have learnt something there. We learn everyday.

Isaiah 55:11 "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void. But it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it"

y2kaustin:
Thanks for the insult,people just get unnecessarily irrational and ill mannered over night.Thanks for the insult,mind you i am not preaching Adeboye ok.Remember  that part of the Bible that said touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm? and the same bible still says "Thou shall not Judge"why all this?allow God   to judge  them  you don't have any right to,,don't incure the wrath of God ok?.

1 Chronicles 16:22 "Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm".

James 2:20 says "But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?"

It is the Lord that knows whether musKeeto and I are his according to 2 Timothy 2:19.

Shiloh made the front page of nairaland.

musKeeto:
Haha, lmao.

Let the Lord be the judge of every man.

Do you believe in courts? Are they biblical?

Why didn't you say the Lord bless me too? Why only Sovpounds? Have you subconsciously JUDGED me to be an enemy of the TRUTH?
I'd advise you to study Jesus' life and see how he went against the norm and practises of the Saducees and Pharisees of those days. Look at their reactions whenever he hit them and see if they do not mirror what most of our churches preach and do today.

Read the sermon on the mount, the parable of the Good Samaritan, and tell me you'd not be able to discern/judge.

I judge everyday and I'm not ashamed. What I do not do is condemn. If I open my home and find a stranger in it, I'd label him a thief without even thinking twice. If I find something wrong in my sibling, I tell him straight up how I feel and work with him to help him overcome. This idea of 'not judging' fosters a dangerous environment: one in which the truth is hushed no matter how glaring in the hope of going against the Most High

May the Lord of Hosts bless musKeeto and the other 827,066 nairalanders (wow the number of nairalanders has increased from 827,032 to 827,067) May the Lord of Hosts bless the work of your hands. We now have 35 new nairalanders since my first post on this thread which was just a little over an hour ago!

tolex29:
[size=20pt]@ Sovpounds, may the Lord bless you beyond even your very desires in Jesus' name, Amen.

Let the Lord be the judge of every man, no man is in a position to judge the other. I have realised one thing, the wisdom of God is foolishness to man. [/size]

Thank you. God bless you too.

1 Corinthians 1: 20 says "Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?"

musKeeto:
This is one issue I have with this title 'man of God'. If Adeboye is a man of God, what does that make everyone else? Men of the devil?

If you believe in the Bible, you ought to know that we are all children of God. Even if I were to go by your 'title', he is first a MAN before he is a MAN of God. No man, no matter how righteous, is above mistakes and fallacies. NO man is perfect.

Everything that's going on in Nigerian churches today is called 'Hero' worship. The billboards, the guards, the megastar status, the untouchablility, the devotees, even drugdealers and politicians can't help but to be impressed.

I agree with you, no man is above mistakes and no man on earth is perfect.

freecocoa:
I sure was a kid when Abacha died but I remember vividly well that I went with my big cousin to buy bread and some other things for mum,while we were still there the news came that he had died,the man at the store didn't collect money for what we bought,he asked us to go with the money cos he was happy God finally answered his prayers,people were running about the streets jubilating,I think I was 7 or so then but I I won't forget that day, that's about enough sign that Abacha was EVIL,and btw my cousin didn't give my mum the money back and he only gave me stick sweet like we called it then.
SO OP PUFF PUFF PUFF

Good to see u outside the Romance thread.

GenBuhari:
Which Head of State devalued Naira by over 2000% (two thousand percent)?
And in the process plunged the Nigerian masses into poverty almost overnight.

In you other post https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-823498.0.html
you claimed Gen Abacha pegged the naira at 22 to a dollar through out his tenure. You conveniently left out that the naira was going for 85 to a dollar in the black market. Importers and manufacturers and the common man were buying dollars at 85 to a dollar, only government cronies were buying at 22 to the dollar. It is no secret that these government cronies after buying at 22 to the dollar engaged in round tripping and selling in the black market at 85 thereby making a huge profit over night.

You conveniently left this out of that post. I believe you have been paid by someone and you are acting out a script or you are acting out this script hoping to be recognised and paid by someone for your efforts. In a way you have tried because that weird thread https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-823498.0.html is now on the nairaland homepage. How much were you paid??

GenBuhari, you have been paid to start this thread. Please tell us how much you were paid.

I love the video. Funke Akindele is funny.

"Whis-key?"

lol.

Personally I believe Pastor E. A. Adeboye is a man of God. Anybody who believes he is not a man of God or he is fraudulent is entitled to his or her opinion.


I am so happy that is not what we think about Pastor E. A. Adeboye that matters but what God thinks of him. Let me make this clear I do not know what God thinks of him or of anybody, it is God that knows. [/b]Even if I believe Pastor Adeboye or any other person for that matter is a man of God but God thinks otherwise it is God's opinion that matters. Even if the 827,032 members (as at this morning) of nairaland believe Pastor Adeboye or any other individual is fake but God thinks otherwise it is God's opinion that would stand.

I take solace in 2 verses from the bible.

Romans 3:4 says [b]"Let God be true, but every man a liar" (meaning it is God's opinion on any man that matters not my opinion or the opinion of the other 827,031 nairalanders)

2 Timothy 2: 19 says "Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity". (confirming that it is God's opinion that matters not my opinion not the opinion of the other 827,031 nairalanders not the opinion of the estimated 7 billion people on earth)

realvenc:
My company (a small IT Firm) has a running contract with a Servicing company for support services.
Anytime i send in my Invoice for payment for services, i usually add VAT of 5% to the total amount on the invoice. But they will pay me less the VAT and also minus withholding TAX from the Sub Total.

So in essense, they pay me less VAT and Less with holding Tax.

Is this the right thing thing. What am i supposed to do about this.

Your responses will be highly appreciated. Also other related issues with regards to running a small coy like mine can be included.

Thanks

maybe the company does not trust you to remit the VAT and the withholding tax to the appropriate authorities so they have decided to do it themselves. its still wrong.

even when a bank was providing branded pens for customers, sometimes I take the pen away mistakenly. most times I realize when I have left the bank. i guess i am usually absent minded when ever i'm in a bank.

Please you guys just hit the nail on the head.

I think Dr Lefulefu is aware of this he is just joking and has succeeded in making many people laugh (including me).

lefulefu:
One thing wey i really love about oyibo babes be say dem no dey take their hygiene dey joke at all.Before a white babe go wan do bedroom wrestling(s3x) with u she go first make sure say she go bathroom go take her shower.Even sef my own oyibo kele dey take baff at least three times in a day.But for a naija babe na different case entirely.A niaja babe go come house from her daily hustling all sweaty and clammy and instead of her to go take a shower before attending to her bobo she go carry all her body with all the sweat and body odour wey dey the body take suffocate the poor bobo.Even for some of them to bath at least even once in a day na ordeal not to mention twice in a day.Why e be like this na?.Some naija babes no dey take time to trim the bush under their armpit sotay the thing don look like kilimanjiru forest and the odour wey dey come from it na die.For many naija babes b4 dem wan have s3x with their bobo dem no even get the initiative to go bath first and wash their body b4 the main action.Una expect una bobo to carress all the sweat and body odour wey dey una body ?.Na wetin sef ehn? .All the soap and deodorants wey dey market una think say na for decoration? .And to worsen everything una go wear expensive makeup and clothes for the body wey una never wash for bathroom.Anyway na god go save us
