Religion / Re: Is It Wrong For Pastor To Buy Fuel From Black Market ? by thegrinch(m): 4:12pm On Apr 03, 2016
turboG:


Oga how do know a pipeline vandals fuel on d road. Ur pastor is not telling d whole truth.


I can't see any sign that you went to school in your comment.

I made a clear distinction between what is right and what is wrong. I made no reference to Pastors in general or to the OP's pastor specifically.

If you have a grouse with any pastor in your past, take it up with that individual. Don't come here to spew rubbish and quote SOMEONE WHO IS YOUR FATHER'S AGEMATE just to prove a point.

Religion / Re: Is It Wrong For Pastor To Buy Fuel From Black Market ? by thegrinch(m): 8:55am On Apr 03, 2016
if your definition of black market is : A filling station that has hiked the price if their fuel, then it is not a sin...

if however, you know that the sellers are "pipeline vandals" then you're wrong. You are doing a disservice both to yourself and to your country.
Politics / Re: President Buhari's Easter Message by thegrinch(m): 8:30am On Mar 27, 2016
sweetgala:


Muslims actually believe in Jesus as a prophet , not in the holy birth and crucifixion


Go and get your facts right....

Islam (not brainwashed islamists) believe in the virfin conception of Jesus Christ and His Crucifixion....

Their argument is that:
1) He didn't die on the Cross (i.e He survived Crucifixion)

2) That He is not the Son of God and does not have have equal status with God

Everything else the Bible said about Jesus, they concur with.
Politics / Re: Jonathan Hits Back At Obasanjo -the Sun by thegrinch(m): 6:07pm On Nov 22, 2015
RevDesmondJuju:


How about their front man and defacto political leader who is a total fraud, convicted drug trafficker and kleptomaniac who has ripped them a new hole?

Sometimes I wonder where the Yoruba gets the audacity to be a critic of the central govt where their region is led by immoral hedonistic criminals


Thunder go fire your mama yansh.....

"Please don't make racist and tribalistic comments
on this section"

Did you see this notice on the comment box before you posted this demonstration of craziness?

Yoruba did not make Obasanjo president, Nigerians did. In fact More Yoruba's voted against him compared to the number that voted for him.

So, if in your words, Obasanjo is an "immoral hedonistic criminal" then its your Father's fault for voting him in ('cos I'm sure you were too young to vote at that time)

Next time, borrow some sense before you come here to see rubbish.

GEJ, first statesman to say the Truth to that treacherous snake called obasanjo, a man whose first daughter disowned and whose son accussed him of sleeping with his own wife but yet is highly respected by his tribe, says a lot about their general judgement on life

Foolishness is worrying you.....

its is a known fact that NIGERIANS love money and POWER. Every part of the nation has its own rotten politicians and powerful no-do-gooders......

Condemning a whole race because of 1 bad politician that is celebrated by other politicians and bootlickers is a clear sign of Intellectual Fraud.

Borrow some common sense next time before you post such trash.

Family / Family Picture: When Was The Last Time You Had Your Picture Taken In A Studio by thegrinch(m): 6:08pm On Oct 16, 2013
In today's busy society, I wonder if people ever have the time to take family portraits in studios anymore.

The question therefore is: When was the last time you had your picture taken in a studio either personal (for folks that are still single),or as a family, with Daddy, Mummy and the Children.
Religion / Re: Is The God Of Israel God Of ALL? by thegrinch(m): 8:54pm On Oct 13, 2013
Garri_Activist: The God of Israel is the God of Egypt, HE is also The God of Jesus! And He is The God of Moses, Abraham, Isaac. He is The God of USA, CHINA, JAPAN, NIGERIA, God of the universe..

He's name is Allah cool

Mister, for your information, your Allah is god with a small g. An after thought of someone desperately seeking attention

As much as you want to believe otherwise, JEHOVAH is not the same as allah.

The Nigerian Society is one that craves religious tolerance so much to want to equate gods with GOD.

But don't hang yourself yet, everyone has a right to believe what they want, but all beliefs are not equal.
Religion / Re: Is It Wrong To Worship In One Church And Pay Tithe In Another Church? by thegrinch(m): 11:15am On Oct 05, 2013
try69:

The bolded is exactly one reason I said "THESE PEOPLE THREATEN GOD's CHILDREN".

Oga read what you typed again..smh

GOD WILL JUDGE YOU FRAUDSTERS

@ try69
It is obvious from the wording of your post that you are not one of God's Children'

The bolded is exactly one reason I said "THESE PEOPLE THREATEN GOD's CHILDREN".

You phrased it so carefully, to show that you are not one of 'THEM'

If you therefore are not a Child of God, then you have no right to authoritatively assert that they are being threatened: Else your foolishness will be like the white man that doesn't want to spank his kid, and calls anyone else who does a criminal.

What did you say? I'm wrong, you're a child of God, saved by the blood of Jesus, okay proove it. Post your salvation experience here. I CHALLENGE YOU.
Religion / Re: Is It Wrong To Worship In One Church And Pay Tithe In Another Church? by thegrinch(m): 10:38am On Oct 05, 2013
@ christemmbassey, you're just like one of those DERANGED characters in CRIMINAL MINDS.

Whta happened to you when you were growing up? :

Did you attend a white garment church as a child, where you caught the fake prophet sleeping with your mother, and you've from that time hated God and anyone that represents him?

Or did your despise for God and his things come from losing a loved one, wrongfully assuming that God was responsible?

While I symphathise with you for whatever demonically arranged events that got you into this frame of mind, THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT YOU ARE COMPLETELY WRONG.

You are a complete bible illiterate, and I'm certain that the rubbish you are saying is from hearsay, and not facts you've verified from the bible itself.

Just as every area of life has its charlatans: fake doctors, fake architects, fake estate agents, fake police, fake international passport, fake certificate etc....Having said that, it would be INTELLECTUAL FRAUD to assume that because some people forge certificates, that that means that your own certificate too must be forged (that is if you went to school sha).... So also, it would be fraud to assume that because there are fake pastors (and there must be: we're in the last days, and the bible says that a lot of false prohets will arise - but then do you read the bible?) That should now mean that all pastors are fake.

-------------------------------
Now to the issue of tithes: I know that you know next to nothing about the bible, so I'll call this TITHING FOR DUMMIES....

The bible has 3 distinct parts, grouped into 2 parts for easy digestion.
- The Old Covenant (testament)
- The process/life of Jesus
- The New Covenant

While the gospels of Mathew, Mark, luke ans John are grouped into the New Testament, the New Testament did not begin until Jesus died and was resurrected.

In my earlier post, I had explained that the bible was/is written to God's own children. In the past that was the nation of israel, but in this new dispensation, that refers to the church

So, if your father leaves you a will (testament) concerning his properties, starting from when he was a bachelor till when he was old, would you take half and leave the other?

If God wrote the bible to his children, should they take the psalms and leave malachi? INDEED, YOU ARE A ROBBER.

You say the new testament does not mention tithing... At 35, will your father still have to remind you about brushing your teeth (that is assuming that ur father was there to teach you as a kid). God has spoken once, have you heard twice, or you expect him to repeat himself in every letter to his children, even something as fundamental as TITHE?

Your tithe does not belong to you, if you are saved by the blood of Jesus. God does not need your money, but neither do I need my daughters biscuit...I bought it for her, but I still ask her for it, to flame the fire of generosity and other related values in her.

If you don't pay your Tithe to God, someone or something will still collect it from you.

Oh and before I go, if my daugther releases the biscuit, it doesn't mean her teacher at school won't spank her, or that even I won't if she goes out of line... Same way, your tithe won't bribe God or life... It is only a way of saying I acknowledge the doer, and I return what is his back to him.
Religion / Re: Is It Wrong To Worship In One Church And Pay Tithe In Another Church? by thegrinch(m): 9:59am On Oct 01, 2013
@krystophyr while your argument is logical, and you are right about somethings (even the devil is scripturally correct sometimes), you like evryone else are trimming leaves and not uprooting the tree of the matter...

Some simple facts you all are ignoring are:
1) The bible was written to christians, not just everyone

2) While Nigeria (and the world at large) has a large church-going population, a very small minority of this number are christians

3) God doesn't expect you as a church-goer to tithe, he expects that only from his children

Question is: Are you a child of God?

If your answer is in the affirmative, then your spirit, (and not your head or your reasoning) will bear witness to the truth of tithing.

But if you still find yourself logically contesting what rule your father has over you as a child...

Then we can safely assume that you have not been saved by the blood of Jesus.

Goodluck with psycho-anylyzing the scriptures... The last time I checked, it only leaves a gaping hole of unfullfillment and a void and insatiable yearning in the hearts of it 'practisers'

I can see that there are a lot of educated illiterates in this place.

I will not be baited into should you tithe or not. Is it for christians or is it just for old testament folks, etc

Any sincere person knows that ALL of the scripture is for the christian, and only unscrupulous elements will contest the truth: if you don't pay your tithe to God, you'll pay it someway, somehow, and to someone, somewhere. Difference is that: you won't have a say in how 'they' collect it and how much 'they' collect. But you can be sure it will be more than 10 percent.

Now I'll answer the question with another question:

Should you child eat food in your own house, and go to the neighbours house and wash their plates?

Did you say 'why should he?' Then why should you pay your tithe to another church or a poor passerby, or any other person for that matter, if you're not a thief and a robber, an ungrateful and spiteful child.

Have they not laboured over you in anyway in that church? So if they sow spiritual things to you, is it wrong that they reap carnal things from you?

Have a change of heart today and Tithe right.

Both software approach design differently, and you'll have to try them out to know which one works best for you. Download them at adobe's website http://www.adobe.com
