Oga President, when will you change from "I will or would" to "I have?".

Exactly, demarketing APC will even be an easy task for you, for their unprecedented lies, deceit, crass, and total failed leadership speaks volume to Nigerians. All you need to do when on board is to polish these facts with more truths that even the most chronic zombies wouldn't be able to resist it. And then come 2019, you'll replace that lying great-grant father as a minister for information.

The US has already forsee the exercise ending as a total sham! And so, will better direct their funds to other productive uses.

Mr. Gowon, how does their ignorance comes into play when all they're saying is that, "look, we don't want to be part of Nigeria again, let us go!?" Is it by force?

Ah! Cameron don kill us

I aint gonna argue with you, I have no power to change God's law... you are entitled to your thoughts..all i am saying is as long as i keep the real sabbath,would God condemn me for worshipping him any other day? You better check your words well, If you're gonna preach,do it to the unbelievers, do it to the people who doesn't know about this, this is just a forum,he asked a question which is the real sabbath and i gave him an answer, you didn't see me telling him its Sunday or Monday..i wont argue with a fellow brother, but one thing is this, when you're trying to change someone,you don't do it by picking faults and condemning him, you do it with patience and time, am not stupid.. after giving him an answer don't you think he'll still want to make more researches and ask more questions?? its different strokes for different folks anyways

If correction from God's word is what you called condemnation and faults picking, then go ahead and be the judge. But even if you're judged, you have that which judges you- the word! So deal with the message and spare the messenger!

Understand something here. There's a difference between a command and an obligation. The Sabbath is a command that must be kept as commanded otherwise it is not really a commandment when done one's way, while you're obliged to worship God every other day. Also note that the Saturday Sabbath was sanctified (set aside as holy time or period, Genesis 2:3) right from the beginning of creation, and was made for man not man for the Sabbath (Mark 2:27), i.e, man has no right to decide when or how to keep the Sabbath other than that which has already been laid. And of course, the son of man is also Lord of the Sabbath, verse 28. Who sanctified Sunday and is Lord over it?

I'm picking on you because you've done the innocent Op more harm than good, in that, although you fully know the right thing, but choose to lead him astray- into sin! Of what use is your answer to him when it is not for his edification? Or do you not know that "Whoever knows what is right to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin?"- James 4:17.

Remember, "Whoever then relaxes one of the[b] least[/b] of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and[b] teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven"- Matthew 5:19. If breaking the least of the law has dire consequences, how much more the major Law of God?

Brother, do not think that I'm accusing or arguing with you, no! Rather, I'm telling you to always teach what is right and stand by it!

In one sentence he said he wrote APC's manisfesto for them and in another sentence he criticised the APC's "medieval manisfesto". Even a juvenile knows that any new government come with their economic blueprint. Obama did it when he came onboard, David Cameron isn't left out either. The problem with pessimistic personalities like this respected professor is that they believe so much in western Theologue, while forgetting that the Africa economic environs is entirely different.

If I should ask a person like utomi what he think will work best for our developing economy, you will hear him calling America, Germany or UK. These set of people don't understand the African economy to the best of my knowledge. I read a book about macro economics which was written by a person like utomi, gosh I just had to drop the book because the writer just wrote hogwash and was making baseless comparisons. He didn't understood the simple basic economics of African nations. I don't just know why but when it comes to economy matter, I don't take the likes of utomi any serious.

You mean you wrote this long epistle just to talk back at Prof Utomi for exposing the uncommon failed leadership of Buhari? Okay, continue.

There is no Satan. Wake up.

What difference does it make whether you believe his existence or not? I tell you, it doesn't change the fact. Keep your own belief and let me keep mine.

kiddoiLL:
hey bro watch it....i am a sabbatarian, i answered the question...i see nothing wrong in worshipping God on a Sunday or any other day..dont make it look like its evil to worship on sunday.....

Sabbatarian indeed. Are you then challenging God on what day He choose by His prerogative to sanctified and command observance? Who gave you the power to decide what's wrong and right in worshiping God?

Again, I repeat, "It is extremely foolish to flout God's order in order to keep yours. And then somehow expects the Almighty to agree with you". This is whether you're the one doing it, or you teach others to do it.

I gave you and all that cares to listen, God's word concerning this matter, and you're mad at me, why?

kiddoiLL:
Saturday is seventh day known as the sabbath...but it doesnt mean worshipping God on sunday is wrong

Yours is clearly a case of wilful sinning, for though you know what's right yet choose to ignore it that you may do it your own way.

"Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they do worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men'. You leave the commandment of God and hold to the tradition of men. And He said to them, "You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to establish your tradition!" - Mark 7:6-9.

Today, these words of the Lord is directly refering to you, who although knowing the right thing to do refused to do it, and arrogantly dismissed it as no wrong, in order to keep your cherished tradition. Be warned what is at stake, "in vain do they worship me".

Lastly, it is sheer foolishness for man to set aside his Creator command in order to establish his, and then somehow expects the Supreme Being to concur.

Repentance to Satan is what sin is to God- detestable! Satan's fake has been sealed and he is doom forever.

If all our leaders were like Akpabio in terms of infrastructural development, I think Nigeria would have been an enviable country among comity of nations. Certainly, the world class hospital will generate heavy revenue for the government, when fully operational. Well done, distinguished Senator Akpabio.

Can Yahaya Bello say the same thing to himself? Between the council's administrators and the State administrator, who is the biggest thief? Yeye dey smell...

Usual gibberish. So far, nothing has been achieved other than intimidating and embarrasing opposition leaders. Probe my foot!

Where is that shameless liar called Lai? That pariah State he falsely accused GEJ of running now stares him in the face.

Covering of the hair with scarfs by women in Churches has always been a misconception and misinterpretation of 1 Corinthians 11:3-15. Now lets study it together.

3 But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
4 Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved.
6 For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.
7 A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

Now, exactly what does it mean to "covered and uncovered" the head? Is it covering and uncovering it with a scarf or cap? Can we be sure of the answer? Lets find out.

8 For man did not come from woman, but woman from man;
9 neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
10 It is for this reason that a woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.
11 Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
12 For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
13 Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
14 Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
15 but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.

There you have it, very plain and clear! "For long hair is given her as a covering". This is self-explanatory and doesn't need any private interpretation! Indeed, a woman hair is truly her glory and authority, this we all can attest. So then, there's nothing wrong in women having their hair uncovered in Churches. For it is not her scarf or cap that is her glory and authority, but her hair. And that glory and authority must be seen because of the angels.

Thanks

OgundeleT:
you claimed bible don't give account of the females in the beginning? and you proceeded by claiming that Cain married his sister? now what am saying is that there is a contradiction to that in the book of Leviticus that said " The unclothedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, whether she be born at home, or born abroad, even their unclothedness thou shalt not uncover."
Leviticus:18:9

Sorry sir, I think there's a mixed up somewhere. I never make any of those claims. Please cross-checked my submissions. Thanks

It is bound to happen, when there's no purposeful driven leadership.

Mbediogu:
Very reasonable and logical. Not everything was recorded and even parts of what was recorded were removed by church authority.

Thanks, you got it.

macof:
thank you. but why would you think you don't have need of your ethnic lores but have need of Jewish myths?

I've already answered you, sir. I said, "I'll learn of it; when I'm in need of it". It's entirely a matter of choice.

BIAFRANFLAG:
Assumptions, Assumptions!!! That's all you have to dish out for the gullible religious fanatics to swallow hook, line and sinker.

Try another one.

because assumptions is never an evidence.

The contents of bible is purely an Israeli's accounts of how they perceived the world.


Bible does not have a clue on how the whole universe came about.

Your opinion.

OgundeleT:
but this contradict the rules in lev 18

Lets hear the contradictions.

lomprico:
After cain killled abel, he went to a far land to pick a wife! That means that wife has parents that gave her out to cain. Who created them??

Anyway I know the answers to this questions and its not d explanation u gave. I just want to hear other peoples opinion.

Okay. But, you do no one any good by concealing your superior answers at a time it is needed most.

Rapmoney:
Why do u people use silly answers to respond to questions? The Op asked a question! If u don't know the answer, shut ur mouth!!! Ur response is absolutely silly!!!

I've already answered him, sir.

iwadobo:
Your are telling me now that it is because of his siblings that God marked him? No ,no ,no. He was marked for other people of the world to know him. Again, as at the time Caine killed Abel, they were still living very close together, hence the jealousy and the killing. If the two eldest brothers were still close, you mean a female member of the family was living far away from home that cain has to wander to meet her? Bible is just the Jews folklore

Your opinion, and I respect it.

blackjack21:
For thinking that animals don't have power to reason and create even beyond humans' scope shows how limited the mind your so called God gave you.

Your opinion, sir.

tigonana:
Dat splinz guy don run away,he no gree answer d op question.

No, boss. I've answered him.

DropShot:
Adam and Eve had eight sets of twins, each set with one boy and one girl.

Allah commanded they cross-marry, the last set marrying the first set. Cain didn't want his brother Abel to marry his own beautiful twin sister, saying he would be the one to marry her instead. This was the reason he killed Abel and he later married his own twin sister.

Islam details the account without missing anything.

Allahu Akbar.

Okay, boss, it is noted.

xtervaganza:
hahahhahahahhahahahahahahahahahah Christians ooo




You mean Eve had other kids that your Bible forgot to note down




Lol

Your scoffing is noted, sir.

OKUCHI11:
thank U very much..... for this enlightenment....it is very scholarly

Oh... I'm humbled by your choice of words. Give thanks to the Lord.

BAILMONEY:
THE GUY YOU JUST QUOTED IS A MUSLIM

Well, I don't really care who he is. He wanted knowing the Christian's creation account, and that I've explained.
