If the outpouring of the Spirit is done at the will of GOD, how come altar call is not also done at the will of GOD and not at the request of men of GOD? The outpouring of the Holy Ghost happened on the day of Pentecost, when Moses brought the law from the mount and the new testament promises that that this time the law will not be written on tables of stone but on the hearts of men...so there has to be a dedicated time for inviting the Holy Ghost to saturate the lives of his children. The outpouring of the Holy Ghost happened mostly when the people were in one accord. An example happened in: Acts 4:29-31

To disprove your statement about the baptism not being at the control of anyone, men of GOD laid hands on others and baptism happened (Acts 8:15-17, Acts 19:2-6).

The prophecy of the outpouring of the Holy Ghost (Joel 2:28) was fulfilled in Acts 2:1-4 and since this period any gathering of GOD's children for the infilling of the Holy Ghost is greeted with the presence of the Holy Ghost. This is why such services are to be held very regularly not because men of GOD are in control or determine it but because the presence of the Holy Ghost is here with us already and the indwelling will readily be satisfied by the Holy Ghost since His presence is here with us already.

It would be a huge disfavor to the body if there is no dedicated service for those who hunger and thirst for the indwelling and infilling of the Holy Ghost to meet, to worship and get satisfied as declared by Jesus in Matthew 5:8.

So I guess your indirect response is that your denomination does not explicitly set aside a period for worshippers who hunger and thirst for the Holy Ghost to be filled, right?

alter call is from the one giving his life to Christ. Someone has to open the floor for salvation after preaching for those who got convicted and converted during the sermon.

The baptism of the holy ghost isn’t the flesh and blood of Jesus we eat at will...

I believe the outpouring of the spirit is something God does at his own will to those yearning to do God’s will....not at the control of any one...it can happen during any service as long as the person has been craving, waiting for it....:

Yes..a pastor can say those that want to experience the baptism should come for a special service...but u and I know those that are not even craving, or waiting in anyway will show up and later claim nothing happened......they are the ones that will later become atheists claiming all na fake..

So correct. Some are even attempting to schedule a day of Pentecost for infilling of the Holy Spirit.

I hope you update the thread when your neighborhood diesel runs out and power supply cuts abruptly.

This man will surely generate controversy for a very long time to come.

So there are people that can still fall for a half bag of rice and 5ltrs of ground nut oil.

May God help you guys.

They thought the last one they took will be the last one that will ever appeal to them. Change has reversed their fortune even further. They will gladly take even fresh grass and salty water now.

Your laughter does not solve any problems. Let the better person you know come out.

I already know the worst option. That's enough to laugh.

People are our greatest resource but we need to educate them and give them skills.

...but without education and skill, you get liabilities that will eat up the proceeds of oil and gas so fast.

Is anyone stopping you from working with or consuming brewery?

maybe you from Ghana.

jesusjnr2020:
Heartlessness is what comes to mind if all you can see here is what was not in the picture!

So Jesus was heartless when he asked christians to avoid publicity when doing charity? Take it easy.

jesusjnr2020:
Do you have any issues with people giving alms, because I don't think you would be speaking of what Jesus said if it was tithes and offering instead the person in the picture was giving.

Besides, how do you know it was the person's camera? Can't you also see that it was an urgent situation where the needy needed to be fed immediately.

Heartlessness is what comes to mind if all you can see here is what was not in the picture!

If Jesus sent you here as you claimed in your signature, follow what Jesus said about how to give alms. Urgency can make one forget to turn off the camera but that isn't the case here. Most people do it on purpose to be seen by men and for the praise of men.

I'm familiar with the Finance Act, both 2019 & 2020. You can tax an entity that's not registered in Nigeria. If Twitter or any other SM company doesn't want to open an office in Nigeria, the only thing you can do is to ban them and maybe bar corporate entities from transacting with them. Asides that, there's nothing the government can do.

Taxing twitter without their head office being in Nigeria will set a bad precedence. One day all websites too will be banned. This is abuse of privilege by the govt.

This is like going to a private library to tax readers for profits made when they apply information acquired from the library in real life.
Normal society will tax the library as a business then tax business in the society by their profits but not their activities.
Tax internet service providers instead. If a business leverages on twitter to make profit, tax the business directly. If twitter must be taxed then let every website runned as part of business and accessed in Nigeria too be taxed. This is the same incompetence that sent twitter regional office to Ghana.

I laugh.

Jesus also told us to not let the right hand know what the left is doing as regards charity, but that picture of the giving in the OP is accompanied by a camera. Most NGOs aren't from the heart. Go to borno and hear stories of NGOs shortchanging IDPs. True NGO or NGO-minded folks won't create or seek to make any noise when giving. People give for many reasons. They give to insult, they give out of strife, jealousy, to attract donation(like NGOs do). Some even give to impress onlookers. Some give out of devilish instincts. If you aren't giving for any of the above mentioned purpose, I see no reason for publishing your givings.

After using these same religious dung to render their local leagues useless, they are seeking to make the EPL and other major European leagues useless too.

Your religion is suppose to be private affair. Fast at your own convenience. Pray at your own convenience. As a christian, I can decide against working in a brewery or consuming their product. It will be intrusive to seek to impose my own choices on those who chose to work with breweries or consume their products.

AhoadaRivers:
Igbo is found in large numbers all over the world mr yoruba man.

There is no country in the world where you don't find an Igbo man. We all know this.
Stop pushing it, propaganda days on your newspaper are over.

Yoruba's are in Benin, Togo and ivory cost asides some south american countries. They also have people spread allover the world like the Igbo's. It is hard to argue in favour ofghe Igbo's on this one.

Jostoman:
If they don't create hunger like this you people will not embrace their N-POWER and TRADERMONI. This hunger go reset our brain in Nigeria by fire by force.

I see why they killed Shiite muslims now. At least it has helped curb extremism.

God pass them.

APC is just the most useless party in the history of Nigeria.

The amount of ffuckeery they spurne is just mind burgling

What what "weapons " will Nigerian villagers use to defend thmeselves against AK-47 carrying Fulani bandits? Sticks?

God forbid bad thing!!!

It feels like a war agenda that has been planned for long and now they have their foot soldiers armed and well positioned in the adversary's territory. They just need to ignite the masses against the bandits then direct the resultant chaos towards their planned goal - jihad.

Abascoh:
And when you take your defence into your hand, the same military will suddenly have all the arms and courage to come after you for defending yourself.

I tell you. The time for revolution is nearer than ever. It means they just collect security vote for maintaining girlfriends.

Then what are the military for? To flog civilians and make them roll in dirty waters alone? Change begins with us indeed.

That refinery may be frustrated by corrupt admin looking to rip Dangote off.

Chrisvicmall:
If you are purchasing by yourself, then you need to give the supplier your Chrisvicmall China address. When we receive the goods, we will send a notification to you. Then you can place your order for shipping.

If you want us to handle the purchase for you, you need to provide the supplier phone number to use. We will contact the supplier and make the payment.

What is the address. Someone needs it as part of details that will determine cost of goods. China address or must one register on CVM site before getting a China address?

This error is down to BMC not reporting NK on twitter.

Is any borno, zamfara, Niger, katsina, or Kaduna civilian crying about soldier's onslaught? Such occurrences starts from Benue down to within the circumference of the circle.

What is the point if you build few impressive structure and drag millions into poverty in exchange?

Simplyleo:
Ipob can link up with boko haram to fight Buhari since they are both freedom fighters.

You mean known gunmen(KGM) and the north.

He is right. No bandits casualty pictures but we have pictures of BH casualties.

Is it the police that will write the school or the school will act based on judgement of the judiciary. For now she is a suspect.
