Logicboy03: Not that type of daddy

Mr Troll:


TEACHER!!!

Logicboy03: Let just say that he is a daddy

Mr Troll: It is better to keep mute and seem intelligent than to speak and remove all doubt.

Lecturing Atheists...lmao!

Logicboy03: For once, I agree with you, old man

LifeQuest: Chapter 2 : Where Does God Live
Sometimes in 1983 during the Christmas vacation, my family was invited for a retreat organized by Deeper Life ministry. It was yet to be a full fledge church then around where my mother was newly posted to. It was there at the retreat I started having greater urge for God in my life. I was just 7 years plus then. Just before this retreat, I queried in my heart as I sat one Sunday morning in that small church of ECWA Obbo-Aiyegunle, Kwara State, ‘does God exist? Why must we come every time to pray to someone we can’t see? ’ The retreat was an answer. I need to state that prior this time, I had had encounter through the children church I attended in ECWA, the crusades of Ade omo oba Jesu, Obadare, Jesus Film and Street Revival of The Apostolic Faith Mission. After the retreat at St Luke’s Anglican Primary School, Obbo Aiyegunle, I was fully aware of God, the reality of sin and its consequences at a greater level. As a child, I was still childish in my behavior and played all the pranks of the childhood. From that time, I started desiring God and more and more. I stopped the bad things I was following others to do as little children whose hearts were filled with follies such as peeping through windows, stoning goats and other domestic animals for fun, cursing and railing abusive words on age mates and others. I started telling others how bad it is to be bad. God in deed showed me He was real. There was a particular event in June 1984 I won’t forget. Yes, it was a weekend. On Friday of that weekend, I slept and had a dream of rapture. As I looked backed, it must have been summation of stories I heard about rapture replaying in my sub consciousness that night or at best, God was reinforcing the reality of heaven in me. I woke up terrified and awed by what I saw, the angels, the blinding lights and the street of gold. Although nobody led to anywhere neither was any angel giving me messages nor was I shown hell. As we were going to the farm that morning, I remembered telling my cousin and other kids like me what I saw and they told me I was lying so I kept quiet. In the evening of that Saturday, I was with other children outside playing before nightfall; there was a bright light that shone as if it was noon time. It was terrifying and everyone thought the world has come to an end. Adults were shouting ‘Jesus, Jesus…have mercy’. Kids were asked to run inside. From that day, I was taken serious. It was earth tremor with greater impact in Ijebu Ode that night has I would later understand. From there on, my urge for God increased. I started engaging God in covenant partnership. For instance, I remembered telling God if he could make me top my class, I would come back and pay a vow of any amount that is truly mine. The truth was that St Luke’s had four arms at the time at all level. I was in D class taking 4th position. That was the closest since I moved to that school in early 1983. Amazingly, God did his own part; how I made first position overall my set was mystery. From nowhere I just led the entire set. Pupils and teachers were dazed. As soon as I started receiving gifts and money I kept on reminding myself of my vow. As small as I was I fulfilled my vow. It was an experience that further strengthened my young mind that God is true-the true and the living God who dwells in light inaccessible.

rationalmind: sure. Any word that can be re-interpreted and twisted to appear insulting warrants a ban.

macof: I like Obadiah's modding though he seemed fair to me

rationalmind: and what if what your religion permits is against the rules of the forum

ARareGem: Lol. Girl, don't you worry. Your special one is on the way.



I thought of her yesterday. Isn't it 2 weeks already? Sallie C, where art thou?

Reygenius is cute.

manmustwac: @post
So what happened to the previous mods? When Mynd44 was given the position were you guys informed about the move & whether it would be temporarily or permanent? Well I doubt if Seun would even find this thread & even if he dose he won't do anything about it.

The best way for you guys to fight back is to use the report to moderator link. That's my 2 cents.

Syncan: And someone a couple of posts above is saying we should take such injustice in silence. SMH

Joshthefirst: when a person derails and still makes the bold claim of being in the right with God, he is a hypocrite. The prodigal son realized he was wrong and repented. Wise people did not use his wrong-doing as an excuse to rebel against his father.

Be wise and think before speaking in ignorance.



Galatians 5:22 But the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 humility, and self-control. There is no law against such things as these. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have put to death their human nature with all its passions and desires. 25 The Spirit has given us life; he must also control our lives.


It doesn't mean he is perfect of himself, but as he walks in God, God works in him until the perfect day.

macof: You think anyone reported my post to him before he ban me? A post that was made 2days before he became Mod and not deserving of a 3days ban

Well I would have gladly reported the 3 or 4 posts made by @tpia but I didn't for 2 reasons
1. The insults weren't directed to me or any African spirituality but the OP of the thread
2. I was ban from religion section, and am serving my banishment efficiently

This is another thread Divepen was abusive to catholics www.nairaland.com/1559682/some-things-attract-demons-people

But we don't see a 3days ban or more

striktlymi: Mynd is now becoming a tyrant for God knows what reason. I guess doing well in other sections is no guaranty that one would do well in the Religion section. Placing bans on members for very flimsy reasons is no way to moderate.

Plus if Mynd cannot see how Ihedinobi's thread is ideal for the Religion section then I doubt his ability to moderate the Religion section effectively. I supported his appointment but now I am not 'feeling' him as I used to.

aManFromMars: Hi uj I slept well. You?

@tex: hi

@HBG: dat pic's gay.....

aManFromMars: Hypocrite. When a person does good, he's Christian. When he does wrong, he isn't. What then does he become? An atheist? A Muslim? Unbeliever?

The prodigal son remained the son of his father, despite the mistakes he made. He never lost his 'sonship'. Maybe you should spend a little time studying that parable.

aManFromMars: Of course. There is no TRUE christian. All Christians are hypocrites.

On one hand, you illustrate the qualities of the ideal Christian. But you're unwilling and unable to point at one because there's none. What's that old saying about God judging the heart while men judge by looks?

Can a Christian sin and falter? Yes, they can. Yes, they will. Yes, they do. Over and over again.

This is one thread that @Tpia has been insulting the Op for No reason

I wonder if Mynd issued a ban since he has a thing for banning

Logicboy03: Instead of focusing on the issue or topic at hand.....you come here to judge me. Did Mynd ban me fairly or not

You claim that I complain about every ban and fight with all moderators. How would you even know this? Were you here in 2012? Because I was here and you joined in 2013. Did you ever see me fight with Manmstwacc?

Sorry, but your comment was really silly

CFCfan: ^^
I'll send 'Bush's' beans to ya

lorddeni: @texanomaly

At least we can agree on you judging from your theistic perspective
