AgricultureRe: How Can I Sell My Palm Oil For A Better Deal by TellTheTruth(op): 8:36am On Nov 17, 2022
Yampotatocarrot:
If you bought in March, then you bought when the price has increased... Adding price of keg, I'm sure you're still going to make profit, so just close eyes, sell it and make your money... The price don increase finish (all things being equal)

Sell now, keep your money in dollars, by March next year, by God's grace, convert to naira and buy again. It's price hovers around #10,000 (considering you already have keg), then sell at the end of March/beginning of April when it has doubled...

This #24000/#25000 it's selling now was the price it rose to as at ending of March/beginning of April this year

So wise up

If you still feel you want to sell higher, then look towards the North
Thank you. I just called this morning and they told me the price has dropped to N23,000/25litres.

I will not wait any longer, I have to sell them off.

Hello Nairalanders

I need help!

Many times in the past I did read suggestions here on Nairaland on business one can invest on. One of such business was on storing fresh palm oil to sell at a later date.

So, in April this year (2022) I did invest on that business. I bought and stored eleven drums (about 2,500 litres) of fresh palm oil and now I want to sell them off.

Can anyone here on give me idea(s) on how I can maximize profit (where and how I can sell for a better deal). I need ideas.

My location is Abia state.

I look forward to hear from the guru's here.

If you persevere in this waiting on the Lord, He will bring you into this translation/baptism from your current school of the Spirit into His own righteousness that relieves you of self effort and consequent failures and unsteadiness. If you don't persevere, you will remain in your current season and will bear all its consequences. Many youths, though now unknown in the world, are equally being brought into this. Shalom
I agree with you 100%.
Christianity EtcReply: Any Dream Interpreter To Assist Me With This Mystery Dream by TellTheTruth(op): 11:58am On Jan 03, 2020
This thread is in response to the distress call from our brother "KingErnesto" for an interpretation to his dreams:
https://www.nairaland.com/5610668/dream-interpreter-assist-me-mystery

It is the Lord that gives and interpret dreams, but He also gives knowledge of such mysteries to whom ever He desires to. Therefore the glory for interpretation of dreams belongs to the Lord most High alone.

NOTE: When ever an interpretation of a dream is given to a dreamer, if the interpretation is correct, the Spirit of God in the dreamer confirms/accepts the interpretation immediately within the dream. Therefore, no matter how accurate my interpretation my seem to you, let the Holy Spirit be the one to confirm it within you.

INTERPRETATION OF THE DREAM

One thing I know for sure is that THE WATER HE CAME OUT FROM (first dream) REPRESENTS MULTITUDE OF PEOPLE (Revelation 17:1,15, 19:6). The Lord has called him out of every tribe, tongue, people, and nation to serve Him in a special way (Revelation 5:9-10).

COMING OUT ALSO WITH ELIJAH MEANS HE HAS BEEN CALLED INTO THE PROPHETIC MINISTRY IN THE STRENGTH AND SIMILITUDE OF ELIJAH (1Corinthians 12:28).

BEING IN THE CLASS ROOM MEANS YOU NEED TO BE TUTORED (WAITING UPON THE LORD IN THE SECRET PLACE)

THE 3RD VISION OF PREACHING IN THE STREET WITHOUT RESULT VALIDATES THE 2ND & 1ST DREAM OF BEING IN THE CLASS ROOM. IT MEANS IT IS TIME TO LEARN, STAY IN THE SECRET PLACE AND WAIT UPON THE LORD (2Timothy 2:15, 1Thessalonians 4:11, Psalm 25:3,5, 27:14, 37:7,34123:2, 130:5, Isaiah 8:17, 40:31)

These are the interpretations of your dreams. THE 3 DREAMS ARE ONE. Give God the glory for the secret things belongs to the Lord our God.

Let me give you a secret that will always help you in case of next time. I had the same issue you are having now but the LORD helped me sort it out through this means.

If you are a believer (you know what I mean) and has been baptized with the second baptism (filled with the Holy Ghost), when ever you have a revelation or any spiritual impartation/encounter that you do not understand, pray in tongues about it. Don't just pray in tongues for 5, 10 or 15 minutes but continue until the understanding is made known to you. It is my secret and works excellently well not just for me alone but for every other child of God that operate in this realm of Revelation.

Thanks (remember to always give the total glory to the Lord. God).

Welcome to the PART 3 & 4

PART 2:
https://www.nairaland.com/5608849/re-here-4-reasons-im

These threads (PART 1, 2, 3 & 4) are in response to an earlier publication here on Nairaland titled "HERE ARE 4 REASONS I'M CONSIDERING BEING AN ATHEIST" https://www.nairaland.com/5603870/4-reasons-im-considering-becoming

In the above thread the OP raised 8 questions about the Christian faith in God almighty which he/she summed in 4 paragraphs. By the grace of God the Father of our LORD Jesus Christ answers are being given to these questions. The first question has been answered in part 1 (link above), in this part 2 the second question(s) will be answered.

QUESTION 3

Does God answer prayers?

ANSWER

Yes, the Lord God almighty answers prayers. I am a witness and beneficiary. One strict condition for God to answer your prayer(s) is that you must total trust in Him, and do not doubt. Read the following:

"IF any of YOU LACKS wisdom, let him ASK GOD, who gives generously to all without reproach, and IT WILL BE GIVEN HIM. But let him ask IN FAITH, with NO DOUBTING, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways (James 1:5-8, ESV)

QUESTION 4

Children of God tends to suffer more tribulations, hard times and desperate moments, a lot of them scream " vanity upon vanity" when secular people live in luxury or spend extravagantly.

(b). God tends to turn His back on those who worship Him especially when they are in need of Him. The 1933 Holocaust and mass murder of Jews to the tone of 6 million was a clear indication that God turns His eyes against His people.

ANSWER

In as much the Bible made it clear to us (sons of God) that we will enter His kingdom through trials and tribulations (Acts 14:22, John 16:33, Revelation 1:9), He does not in any way abandon us on the way (Isaiah 43:2) except we first abandon Him.

On the issue of vanity upon vanity, yes the Bible called everything under the sun that will perish vanity, nevertheless, some Christians use it as consolation not to strive for excellence, thus, such imbalanced Christian live as mediocre not truly reflecting the 7 things (Revelation 5:12, 7:12) our Lord Jesus Christ received for us on the cross.

(b). God has never and will never turn His back on anyone that seeks Him according to His standard (God has a standard and its all over the Bible). Anything short of God's standard will not receive His attention. Read the following:

"Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, or his ear dull, that it cannot hear; but your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear" (Isaiah 59:1-2, ESV).

"Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people" (Proverbs 14:34, ESV).

God didn't turn His back on the Jews, the Jews turned their back on God. Till date the Jews practicing Judaism does not believe that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Messiah.

Anybody that comes to the Lord or expects anything from Him must first believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him (Hebrew 11:6).

If you believe that God is (as written above) then you seek Him through the right channel ( through Jesus Christ) diligently. The Jews in Judaism failed in this aspect.

Thank you for reading, God bless you.

Welcome to the PART 2

For those who missed the PART 1, you can still read it through this link: https://www.nairaland.com/5606552/re-here-4-reasons-im#85375860

These threads (PART 1, 2, 3 and 4) are in response to an earlier publication here on Nairaland titled "HERE ARE 4 REASONS I'M CONSIDERING BEING AN ATHEIST" https://www.nairaland.com/5603870/4-reasons-im-considering-becoming

In the above thread the OP raised 8 questions about the Christian faith in God almighty which he/she summed in 4 paragraphs. By the grace of God the Father of our LORD Jesus Christ answers are being given to these questions. The first question has been answered in part 1 (link above), in this part 2 the second question(s) will be answered.

QUESTION 2

There are a lot of complications & contradictory remarks in the Bible:

(a). A verse says don't drink, another says drink for your stomach sake or do not drink wherein excess

(b). Malachi 3:10 speaks about bringing your tithe to the storehouse; Deuteronomy 14:22-26 says otherwise: "you should drink and be merry with your tithe".

(c). There are contradictions on Mathew, Mark, Luke, & John's account of Jesus, maybe the translators fault or God told the writers different stories on the same issue.

ANSWERS

First, there are no complications & contradictory remark in the Bible. Every verse in the Bible has at least one or more other verses somewhere in the same Bible giving further explanation on the matter. The problem is always from the reader who picks a particular verse, runs off with it, and begin to build doctrines around it without balance. This brings error to the reader whereas the Bible is intended to make the man of God perfect (2Timothy 3:16-17).

(a). There are over 200 Bible verses talking about wine. Why do you intend to build a doctrine around two alone?

The Bible permits that people (there are some exempted from this, I will talk about them in the next paragraph) drink wine but not in excess (being drunk), (Ephesians 5:18). Drinking in excess will surely make any man to misbehave therefore the Bible warns us in advance.

God forbids outrightly a king, a Nazarene, or anyone holding leadership position in the church from drinking wine (Proverbs 31:4,6; Numbers 6:1-3; 1Timothy 3:1-3). This is to save them from the embarrassment drinking strong wine can bring. Can you imagine what your reaction will be if I come preaching the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to you with my mouth smelling alcohol; imagine the embarrassment you will feel coming into the church and finding your priest misbehaving because he is drunk with alcohol; imagine the shame and embarrassment when a king gives a partial judgement because he is drunk with wine.

The only wine that these set of people taste is the holy communion right inside the LORD'S Temple.

On the issue of drinking for the sake of your stomach, I will ask you, did you not read the whole verse? Let me quote it for you:

"Drink no longer water, but use A LITTLE wine for thy stomach's sake and THINE OFTEN INFIRMITIES" (1Timothy 5:23).

Let me explain the above verse to you.

The book of first Timothy (even the second and many other epistles) was written by apostle to his son in the Lord (Timothy). As at the time apostle Paul wrote his first letter to Timothy (the book of 1 Timothy), Timothy was having series of sickness emanating from a stomach ailment. This was seriously hampering his work with Paul, thus, Paul advise him to stop drinking water but to take a little wine (take note of the word LITTLE), this solved his problem and increased his productivity in preaching the gospel. The instruction was personal because of his type of ailment.

(b). There is no variation in the purpose of Malachi 3:10, Deuteronomy 14:22-26; Genesis 14:18-20; Hebrews 7:1-2; Genesis 28:20-22 etc that talked about tithing.

What you think to be a variation i.e "eating and drinking your tithe" between Malachi and Deuteronomy (quoted above) is made clearer in Genesis 14:18 when Abraham paid his tithe:

"And MELCHIZEDEK king of Salem BROUGHT out BREAD and WINE. (He was priest of God Most High.) And he blessed him and said, “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth; and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!” And ABRAM [later renamed Abraham by God in Genesis 17:5] GAVE him A TENTH of EVERYTHING (Genesis 14:18-20).

Emphasis in brackets [ ] are mine.

Taking a second look on that passage of the Bible you will note that the priest (Melchizedek in this case) who received the tithe brought along with Himself bread and wine to the place of meeting while Abraham brought a tenth of everything (tithe). Abraham ate of Melchizedek's bread and drank of His wine, and Melchizedek blessed him and received the tithe from his hand. All these happened at the place of their meeting chosen not by Abraham but by God.

Does this explain anything to you about Deuteronomy 14:22-26? Or bringing your tithe to the storehouse (Malachi 3:10)?

Paying of tithe is a spiritual act initiated in the old testament. The children of Isreal paid theirs once every 3 years (Deuteronomy 14:28) according to their year of harvest.

The Lord blessed the Israelites in livestock, grain, corn, wine etc thus, their major occupation was and is agriculture (Israel even today is a major exported of food even with their stony land). Therefore their tithing was not with cash (except in rare occasions due to distance) but agricultural produce.

When they bring their tithe to the Lord, the priest receives the tithe from their hands, blesses them, and also offers them something to eat which they must eat in the house (presence) of the Lord just like Melchizedek offered Abraham bread and wine. That is what they eat (that which the priest offers not their tithe).

(c). There is contradiction anywhere in the book of Mathew, Mark, Luke, & John. If you have mistaken any verse(s) for contradiction please post it here so you can be clarified.

Secondly, in as much the entire old testament and the epistles of the new testament where written by authors (prophets and apostles) who received these words from God through the inspiration of the Lord Holy Spirit (2Timothy 3:16), the book of the new testament gospels (Mathew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts and even Revelation) are direct accounts of what these authors saw with their physical eyes, held with their hands (took part in) and became witnesses of. Thus, God didn't tell them any story but they reported what they themselves witnessed (John 3:11, 15:27, Acts 2:32, 5:32, 10:39-41, 13:31)

QUESTION 3

Does God answer prayers?

This write up is in response to an earlier publication here on Nairaland titled "4 REASONS I'M CONSIDERING BEING AN ATHEIST" https://www.nairaland.com/5603870/4-reasons-im-considering-becoming

In the above thread the author raised 8 questions about the Christian faith in God almighty which he/she summed in 4 paragraphs. By the grace of God the Father of our LORD Jesus Christ I will give answers to these matters that have troubled the author (a Christian likely to lose his faith if no man reveals the LORD to him).

It will be detailed, therefore, have patience as you read.

For the sake of those who doesn't have the patience of reading long thread, I have divided this response into 4 PARTS according to the 4 paragraphs wherein the questions where contained.

WELCOME TO PART 1

Before I start, I want to make something clear to you. THE WORD OF GOD (SCRIPTURES) IS VEILED AND NOT OPEN FOR EVERYONE TO UNDERSTAND (2Corinthians 4:3-4; 3:14), IT IS ONLY WHEN ANYONE TURNS TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (TRUE REPENTANCE) THAT THE WORD IS UNVEILED (2 Corinthians 3:16). Therefore, do not struggle in the flesh (without repentance) to understand the Word of God, you will only end up knowing the letters (which on its own kills: 2Corinthians 3:6, John 5:38-40). It is only the LORD Holy Spirit who "teaches and reveals" the Word of God to us (John 14:26). The Holy Spirit is not given to you until you genuinely repent.

QUESTION 1

Christians believe JESUS CHRIST is the ONLY WAY TO GOD (John 14:6). If Jesus is the only way to God what happens to those (Muslims, Hindus, Buddhas, Atheist, etc) who doesn't believe in God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ?

ANSWER:

Have you ever wondered why our Lord Jesus Christ has not returned to earth since He ascended unto heaven after resurrection?

It is because the number of the saints (believers) is not yet complete (Revelation 6:9-11). These fellow servants of God are those still here on earth preaching the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ (as I am doing to you now).

The bible makes it clear that the gospel of our LORD must be preached to every man in all the nations before the LORD returns (Mathew 24:14; Mark 3:10). These saints still on earth are the once to preach this gospel to the end of the earths (Romans 10:18), so that the gospel will be a witness to every man on the day of judgement (John 12:47-48) then Christ our Lord will come. Those who died without hearing the word will perish without the word, those who heard the word but turned deaf ear will be judged by the word unto condemnation (John 12:47-48) but those who believe (doers) shall be justified (Romans 2:12-13).

Now, it is clear to you that God has the Muslims, Hindus, Buddhist, etc in His plan of the gospel.

Let me make known to you a bit in God's plan for the gospel to all men. In Joel 2:28-29 the LORD said: ...IN THE LAST DAYS I WILL POUR MY SPIRIT UPON ALL FLESH... Take note of the word "ALL FLESH", here God is not referring to a particular tribe, or race but all alive (living) who turns to Him in true repentance (through THE LIVING WORD), them He will pour out His Spirit upon irrespective of their former religion, beliefs or sins committed.

Therefore, if any Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, Atheist etc turns to the LORD God Almighty today through my LORD Jesus Christ the person will immediately receive the Spirit of the LORD (Holy Spirit).

You must also understand that God is not a respecter of men (Romans 2:11) or their opinions, if God (surely He has) made our Lord Jesus Christ the only door to lead His sheeps to Him (John 10:1-7*), He will at no point in time turn His mind (James 1:17) for He is not like man that changes (Numbers 23:19).

More about other religion, let me further shock you.

Did you know that in Islam, A Muslim has no way of knowing whether he or she will be accepted by Allah until the day of judgment.

Muhammad himself said he did not know what would happen to him on the day of judgment (Quran Chapter 46 verse 9).

An acknowledged Hadith tells about Muhammad going to visit a house where the body of a Muslim who had died still lay. A woman addressed the dead body, saying:

“May Allah have mercy on you. I testify that Allah has honoured you. Muhammad asked the woman, “How do you know that Allah has honoured this man? “I know, by Allah,” she said. Muhammad replied, “This man, death struck him and I wish him the best in the name of Allah. By Allah, although I am the Messenger of Allah, I know not what will happen to me, just like you.” (The Authentic of Bukhari, vol.9, book 87, no. 145. Narrated by Kharija bin Zaid bin Thabit).

The faithful disciple of Mohammad, Abu Bakr, also confessed that he feared the judgment of Allah. He said, “If one of my feet was in heaven, and the other outside, I would still would not trust the ingenuity of Allah.”

What Abu Bakr meant was that his eternal future was mysterious until both his two feet were in Paradise. Abu Bakr was nicknamed “the weeping” because he was continually crying while praying. When asked why, he replied:

“Every time I begin to pray, I imagine Allah standing before me and the king of death behind me, paradise on my right and hell on my left, and I do not know what my God will do to me".

It should be noted that five times a day in their prayers all Muslims pray, “Peace and salvation be upon Muhammad.” They pray that God will grant the entrance to heaven. A man can only give what he has. If the leader of Islam himself does not know where he is going, what about his disciples?

According to Ibn Mas’ud, the Prophet said: “The people most worthy of my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will be the ones who have prayed most for me.” (Narrated by At-Tirmidhi)

On the other hand, Christians do not need to pray, “Peace and salvation be upon Him,” about Jesus. Why? Because He is the Lord of all. He is the Prince of Peace ( Isaiah 9: 6 ), the giver of peace ( John 14:27 , Colossians 1:20 ), “For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9), He (Jesus) holds the key of death and hell (Revelation 1:18).

Christ is our “peace” ( Ephesians 2:14 ) and He gives us true spiritual peace. The Christian knows that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:cool

You can also read John chapter 5 here, but this is a saying of Jesus:

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.” John 5:24

As He was dying on the Cross, Jesus had no doubt where He was going, and a thief next to Him turned in repentance and faith to trust Him. The Lord Jesus Christ said these words to that thief:

“Truly, truly I say to you, today you shall be with me in Paradise.”

Jesus had no doubt whatever where He would go the moment He died, and He reassured the dying thief that they would meet there that very day.

Today and even tomorrow (except He comes now), our Lord Jesus Christ is seated at the right hand of God, far above all powers and dominion (Ephesians 1:20-21).


QUESTION 2:

Does the Bible contradict itself?

Watch out for PART 2 SHORTLY.

You must also understand that God is not a respecter of men (Romans 2:11) or their opinions, if God (surely He has) made our Lord Jesus Christ the only door to lead His sheeps to Him (John 10:1-7*), He will at no point in time turn His mind (James 1:17) for He is not like man that changes (Numbers 23:19).

More about other religion, let me further shock you.

Did you know that in Islam, A Muslim has no way of knowing whether he or she will be accepted by Allah until the day of judgment.

Muhammad himself said he did not know what would happen to him on the day of judgment (Quran Chapter 46 verse 9).

An acknowledged Hadith tells about Muhammad going to visit a house where the body of a Muslim who had died still lay. A woman addressed the dead body, saying:

“May Allah have mercy on you. I testify that Allah has honoured you. Muhammad asked the woman, “How do you know that Allah has honoured this man? “I know, by Allah,” she said. Muhammad replied, “This man, death struck him and I wish him the best in the name of Allah. By Allah, although I am the Messenger of Allah, I know not what will happen to me, just like you.” (The Authentic of Bukhari, vol.9, book 87, no. 145. Narrated by Kharija bin Zaid bin Thabit).

The faithful disciple of Mohammad, Abu Bakr, also confessed that he feared the judgment of Allah. He said, “If one of my feet was in heaven, and the other outside, I would still would not trust the ingenuity of Allah.”

What Abu Bakr meant was that his eternal future was mysterious until both his two feet were in Paradise. Abu Bakr was nicknamed “the weeping” because he was continually crying while praying. When asked why, he replied:

“Every time I begin to pray, I imagine Allah standing before me and the king of death behind me, paradise on my right and hell on my left, and I do not know what my God will do to me".

It should be noted that five times a day in their prayers all Muslims pray, “Peace and salvation be upon Muhammad.” They pray that God will grant the entrance to heaven. A man can only give what he has. If the leader of Islam himself does not know where he is going, what about his disciples?

According to Ibn Mas’ud, the Prophet said: “The people most worthy of my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will be the ones who have prayed most for me.” (Narrated by At-Tirmidhi)

On the other hand, Christians do not need to pray, “Peace and salvation be upon Him,” about Jesus. Why? Because He is the Lord of all. He is the Prince of Peace ( Isaiah 9: 6 ), the giver of peace ( John 14:27 , Colossians 1:20 ), “For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9), He (Jesus) holds the key of death and hell (Revelation 1:18).

Christ is our “peace” ( Ephesians 2:14 ) and He gives us true spiritual peace. The Christian knows that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:cool

You can also read John chapter 5 here, but this is a saying of Jesus:

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.” John 5:24

As He was dying on the Cross, Jesus had no doubt where He was going, and a thief next to Him turned in repentance and faith to trust Him. The Lord Jesus Christ said these words to that thief:

“Truly, truly I say to you, today you shall be with me in Paradise.”

Jesus had no doubt whatever where He would go the moment He died, and He reassured the dying thief that they would meet there that very day.

Today and even tomorrow (except He comes now), our Lord Jesus Christ is seated at the right hand of God, far above all powers and dominion (Ephesians 1:20-21).


QUESTION 2:

Does the Bible contradict itself?

What about when you write: 31/01/19 depicting 31/01/2019. Can't someone change the former to 31/01/1997? Or any other year that suits the person.

If your hypothesis of 2020 alone stands, then you have to immediately retrieve all your documents that you abbreviated the years because same theory is applicable to all.

Therefore, as sweet as it sounds, your hypothesis holds no water!
