i think at one point Ted lost control of CNN, because they became a channel of heavy and deranged propagandas and a negative influence to the World. |
If you don't want your child to be disciplined with the cane, don't put them in Command Schools or any of the Military schools. Over there, maximum discipline is the culture, a little close to the army. Just to conclude, check command products they are doing well in the society. i rest my case |

Titusele87:If president Tinubu can not aknowledge the bolded, then he is part of the problem. This is what is happening, FGN do not denial |
In addition and to my understanding of scriptures. God has revealed himself to all who has ever lived on this earth . as stated in Romans 1: 18 “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. {in them: or, to them} 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: {so…: or, that they may be} 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened”. In other words, everybody those before and after know God exist. Its now their responsibility to hear him. The pattern for repentance to evade God's judgment for those before Christ and after the death of Christ involves several key elements as follows; • Conviction of Sin: Repentance begins with the Holy Spirit bringing an awareness and understanding of one's own sinfulness and guilt before a holy God. Knowing fully that there is a portion of the holyspirit in every man born of a woman on the surface of the earth, this is the part that makes you begin to ask questions about your existence and purpose on earth convincing you that there’s a God/supreme being somewhere. Like in Act 17:23, When Paul preached in Athens he found an inscription “TO THE UNKNOWN GOD” This people believed there was a God somewhere greater than the gods they were serving, a god they didn’t know. After Pauls teaching those who truly where eager to know believed while others didn’t. just as it is in our present day. • Contrition/Godly Sorrow: This conviction leads to genuine sorrow for having offended God and a humble, broken spirit, rather than simply regretting the consequences of being caught (worldly sorrow). • Confession: Openly admitting specific wrongdoings to God (and sometimes to those who have been wronged) without making excuses. This involves taking full responsibility for one's actions. For those before Christ or have never heard, this can mean your conscience genuinely identifying wrongful actions, words and even thoughts in the environment or community you find yourself. This was where Sodom and Gomorrah erred. (They just could not see wrong in their wicked ways, and there was not one man that was righteous enough for God to use to convince them). • Abandonment of Sin (Conversion): This is the core of repentance, involving a decisive commitment and intentional effort to stop the sinful actions and an active turning towards God and His ways. (Abraham) The desire to sin is replaced by a desire to obey God (To the knowledge of light you’ve been exposed to). The New you deciding to do right hence forth. • Making Restitution: If possible, this involves repairing any damage or making right what was done wrong, such as returning stolen goods or seeking forgiveness from those one has harmed. • Bearing Fruit in Keeping with Repentance: True repentance is demonstrated by a changed life and actions consistent with a new, righteous lifestyle. This includes filling one's life with positive actions like prayer, reading scripture, and serving others. Encouraging others to stop evil and turn from their wicked ways. Just based on conscience and conviction. This is where many Muslims and people of other faith find the truth, and turn to Christ. They begin to ask question, research and dig deep into whatever religious book they have and can lay their hands on seeking for conviction and truth. Somehow, they then have an encounter because God is looking for them much more than they are looking for him. Jeremiah 29; 13 which says “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart” This applies to all mankind both before and after the death of Christ. Remember, God exists outside the space of time. Like again in • Acts Chapter 17:23 Paul was sent to the eager in Athens • Jonah Chapter 1-4 Jonah was sent to Nineveh • Act 8:26-40 Phillip was sent to the eunuch • Abraham. This is the most inspiring of them all. Abraham who lived in his father’s house (an idol worshiper) because of his desire to find God was called out of his father’s house to an unknown land and he just obeyed. He did not know Jesus but is considered the founding father of faith. The bible records that Abraham destroyed the idols of his father because he did not believe in them. This were the things God saw in him before he called him out. • Luke 16: 19-31 Lazarus and the rich man (They had the prophets but the rich man still chose not to repent until he landed in hell) • Act Chapter 9: 3-10 Even Paul in his zeal to do Gods work; found God. Like the saying, “when the student is ready the teacher will appear”. • Faith and Calling on God: Repentance is coupled with faith in Jesus Christ, calling on God for His undeserved mercy, forgiveness, and cleansing, trusting in His sacrifice for atonement. To those before Christ, this can be forgoing your then religion and seeking for the Truth (light) what every it takes. It can also be you admitting that your present religion is a lie and does not lead to God. This is common in many countries especially in present day Asia where the gospel of the truth is banned or not allowed to be preached. Many in this countries have had secret encounters with Christ where they claim he appeared to them in dreams and revelations. They have never heard the gospel but they believe. These people for fear practise another religion in the open but their salvation is on track. This process is not a one-time event but a continuous, daily lifestyle of returning to God and striving for holiness with the help of the Holy Spirit. True repentance, paired with faith in Jesus, is the biblical way to receive forgiveness, a restored relationship with God, and to be saved from eternal judgment. We should therefore take note, that the grace of Christ death on the cross extend before the coming of Christ, during the time of Christ on earth and after the death and resurrection of Christ. Should we as Christians be borthered about those who have never heard of the gospel of the truth, because those who will believe will believe and repent and those who will not will still not believe, as it is in our present day? Yes Christians should be bothered for those who have not heard or not privileged to know because, it is the only commandment given to us by Christ before he ascended. Mark 16: 15 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned” People Who have never heard of Christ but believed and are convinced that there is a supreme deity who created the earth and all in it or believe that their present religion is false and misleading will not be called out to start a new movement like Abraham rather they will be redirected to where they can find the truth, or a preacher will appear or God will reveal himself to them either in dream or visions or any other means by which they will understand. Their action and what they do with the new found light is the means by which they will be judged. For Abrahams, his faith (believing he heard from God and moving out of his father’s house holding unto that believe) was counted unto him as righteousness. This is the model for all who believe regardless of their background. |
[ Is God fair? In a time when many imagine a more tolerant deity, many wonder how God can rightly judge those who've never heard of Christ. Pastor Lutzer discusses God’s love for justice, found in His revelation throughout creation and within our consciences. God’s justice effects our daily lives and our ultimate destinies. Originally Published: July 1, 2019 Transcript: Welcome to Five Minutes With Pastor Lutzer. I'm so glad that you have joined us. Today we're beginning a series of sessions on the justice of God. We're going to have to be talking about the doctrine of hell, and next time, in fact, I'm going to speak about the salvation of children. How does God's justice play itself out in our lives and in our destinies? The passage of Scripture I'm reading from is Psalm 37, verse 28: "For the LORD loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off." God loves justice. Today, I want to discuss the issue of, how does God judge those who have never heard the Gospel, or even those in false religions? But before I get there, I have to have a different discussion. Is God fair? Well, if you define fairness as God treating everyone alike, the answer obviously is no. God did not treat Hammurabi like he did Abraham. God did not treat Esau like he did Jacob, who inherited the promises. You look around the world today and you can see that there are people in grinding poverty, and then those who are supremely rich. Is life fair? No. Is God fair? No. But God is always just. Always just. But the question then before us is, how does He judge those who have never heard of Christ? Well the answer, of course, is that He judges them on the basis of they did with what they knew. Romans chapter one—the apostle Paul is talking about the wicked, the pagan, and he says that from creation they should understand God's power; God's god-hood, if I can put it that way. Natural law itself teaches them certain things. And then the apostle Paul goes into that litany of sexual sin, and says that everyone knows that there are certain sins that are contrary to nature; so nature itself should tell us about the existence of God, and the assurance that some things are right and some things are wrong. In chapter two he even becomes more specific. He says that the Gentiles do not have the law. The Jews are gonna be judged by the law because they were given the law. But the Gentiles are going to be judged by their own consciences, which either accuse or excuse them in the day, he says, when God will judge the world. So God's judgement is going to be completely fair. God is not gonna say to anyone, "Now, you are going to hell because you never heard of Jesus." They're going to be judged on the basis of light that was available, not light that was unavailable to them. That is a very important principle of justice. Luke 12:38: Those who knew God's will will be judged more severely than those who didn't know God's will. God's justice is going to be meticulous. You say, "Well, Pastor Lutzer, does that mean that those who belong to pagan religions or false religions, if they quote 'live up to the light that they have,' are they going to be saved?" The Bible gives us no assurance that they will be saved. They will be judged justly. But everyone will be proven to be a sinner. Let me put it to you this way. Let's suppose that you need a thousand dollars, or ten thousand dollars to go to college. Actually, you need more than that, but let's make it ten thousand. If I give you a thousand dollars, it is not enough for you to go to college. But it is an encouragement to you to seek me for more light and more gifts. I guess I want to put it this way, and put it very clearly: General revelation is not enough to get people to heaven. But general revelation is enough to judge them. What did they do with what God did give them? Even if they come up short, they will be judged justly and righteously. Now you and I can wrestle with these issues. We can talk about how God should do things differently, but I'm reminded of the words of William Cooper who said, regarding people who don't like the way God judges—who don't like the way God judges the world, Cooper wrote these words: "They take from God's hand the balance and the rod; They rejudge His justice and become the judge of God." My dear friend, today God has the attributes that he has. He is God. We aren't. We bow humbly and accept what He has revealed to us, and are very very glad that we can find refuge in Jesus from the wrath to come.

Chai... WIKE has finished ADC before it emerges |
when you read stories like these setting it straight, just know that the deed has already been done and you are being reprogrammed to accept the new reality. communities are being ransacked and taken over daily by fulani herdsmen in plateau state. daily killing and maiming of young, old and unborn. Even if the killings take place in the outskirt communities, are they not also humans? or they now deserve to die and not be heard because they are in the outskirt of the city? |

Now tell me how this country and the sincere few in government can take this country forward? if there always will be draw backs from islamic fanatics trying to smuggle themselves through another means favorable to those of them that can not meet up the proper way. And when they graduate, they will start gunning for positions, salaries in the mixed economic system. Looking for who they will control. The money is good for them, not the process. |
