Wolfbrother:
Lol do you have any bible verses to back up what you're saying? About the quality of clothes that Jesus wore, the soldiers cast lots? seems to me you're the one making assumptions , what of the other prophets in the Bible? What did they wear?..Did Jesus tell us how to dress?, was it not come as you are?.. People with reasoning like yours chase people away from the church by making rules that should not exist.. Overdoing Christianity ... Like that Redeemed church marriage list... Ridiculous.. I attend Redeemed, I wear a suit Monday to Friday, on Sunday I am mad casual, doesn't mean God will answer the prayer of the man wearing a suit before he answers my own... Focus less on the outward its the content of your pastors heart or your heart that matters, things like suits and shoes and shirts do they really have anything to do with your salvation? Are they not worldy things in the end?.. You dress up and you look at yourself in the mirror, you tell yourself I look good, let's not fool ourselves

Commentary
Matthew Henry Commentary
27:35-44 It was usual to put shame upon malefactors, by a writing to notify the crime for which they suffered. So they set up one over Christ's head. This they designed for his reproach, but God so overruled it, that even his accusation was to his honour. There were crucified with him at the same time, two robbers. He was, at his death, numbered among the transgressors, that we, at our death, might be numbered among the saints. The taunts and....... Matt 27 v 35

The "greatest success" of Gov. Wike of Rivers in his political & entire life would have been the downfall of the Lion of Niger-Delta...

...We all know that the "sleeping-on-duty" Governor is still struggling till date for the downfall of Amaechi.

He has been in office for over one year and by virtue of his powers as Governor, Wike has unconditional access to the financial documents of the State...

...Azzin the best opportunity ever to nail his "enemy" if what they have been telling us about Amaechi was true.

Till today 23rd October 2016 Gov. Wike who runs his mouth like a tap against Amaechi is unable to provide a single conclusive evidence against the Indomitable Lion...Who detroned Goodluck Jonathan and sent him back to the village.

All we hear is Amaechi is corrupt, Amaechi stole billions, Amaechi did this and Amaechi did that.

Epa Ayowie Osa Ayobahan will say; I beg give me second base jare!

#TheLionOfNigerDelta

You should wonder why the documents submitted to EFCC has not seen the list of the day or you are not aware the documentation was done publicly and Amaechi refused to appear?

Wolfbrother:
What is this one saying?, see logic, is it the same thing? Is God your father in law or your father... How did Christ dress?, you know more than Jesus now abi?.. Smh una dey tire person with your oversabi Christianity

Jesus Christ wore robes and garments and they were of such quality that the soldiers haggled amongst themselves( throwing away ranks) about who would take his clothes... They ended up sharing it... Nobody would cast lot to share what this pastor is wearing g if he is given the beaten of his life while in them with the attendant blood and all but thy did it for the robes and garments of Jesus because it had tangible material value during his time


Read your Bible with the help of th Holy Spirit.... He is your teacher... assumption is the lowest form of knowledge

Wolfbrother:
But he wore it to interview Obama... That's my point.. Obama is the president but he's not uptight about it. Pretty sure no one can Interview buhari dressed like this

What the man was wearing is actually a traditional attire that looks funny to you just as our agbada looks funny and is called parachute attire/kit by the whites.

Wolfbrother:
Which kind of logic is this? , A church is not a bank (even though they collect your money), a bank has a dress code, most state in the invitation to dress corporately, like i said before nigerians like to overdo things even more than the people we learnt it from .. see below what someone wore to interview Obama (most powerful president in the world) , you people should stop putting people on pedestals unnecessarily

https://www.hyscience.com/obama%20clown%20meeting.jpg

Clearly you have not told the whole of the man interviewing Obama... what he is wearing is obviously a special attire for festivity or his trade mark. If you want to judge use the global standard like CNN or BBC that your keyboard knows and automatically converts to uppercase letters... . Do they dress funny when interviewing Obama or any other head of government?

ERONX:
Although I'm not a churchy type, I'm a christian, and I'm not trying to condemn any Nigerian pastor or pastors... Its a pity most Nigerian pastors live lavishly and majority of their members wallow in poverty.

I decided to go to church today Sunday after a long time, during service I discovered how simple the pastor was dressed, no flashy suits, no flashy gold rolex, no bodyguard's etc. He preached the word with utmost sincerity and I had a nice time in the presence of God. I was asked to step forward as a first timer, the pastor prayed for me and after service the members and pastors kept on welcoming me. The pastor even invited me to have lunch with his family after service which I generously turned down.

THIS IS WHAT CHRISTIANITY IS ALL ABOUT BROTHERLY LOVE.

Dress like that to meet your father in law to be...... Clearly you didn't gain much spiritually because you clearly went there to do a comparative analysis 'them' and 'us'

grayht:
Catholic Priest are best known for this!

You mean they dress like this when conducting their mass?

KMOS:
you guys are missing the point PDP presidential campaign awarded a contract to Daar communication but funny enough Daar communication was paid by the office of NSA.
the Cbn was instructed to pay Daar communication by NSA from this did Daar communication work for NSA or PDP

Courts don't construct cases it is what is before them as prayer that they adjudicate on.... If the prayer of the prosecution is about illegal arms money transfer deal the court will not turn itself into an investigation panel to ask Dokpesi whether he spent the fund on campaign or sečuity issue.

9jatriot:
CBN followed due process in disbursing the money. That first of all means Daar communication can no longer deny getting money from NSA. The next question is, was the said money meant for media campaign or for arms purchase, that is the real bone of contention. Thank you for making me read it again, it was even the defence counsel that did the cross examination. Except EFCC has a bad lawyer, this witness indirectly helps their case, so Dokpesi should not shout uhuru yet.

Please your contribution needs more explanation.....Because so long as he did a job for the government it is not his duty to determine for the government how or where his entitlement are released from.

Nobody can decide where his earnings from a contract is drawn against.... If he did a job for the money released to him it is for the government to charge same amount to the department that ought to have paid him in the first instance and re credit the arms procurement account.

Genesis2000:
You see thats why i mentioned Jesus there. If he was in a boat and the boat capsized and he happen to be the only see one that comes out, will he also testify and celebrate it?

It seems like we only care for ourselves only. Let share our understanding here. Thank you.

It is to you according to your faith.... I can not eat on your behalf and you get satisfied... Q doctor cannot take his prescription on your behalf and you get well.

No

Genesis2000:
I have been imagining this for some times now.

I knows that testimonies are good, and i have also given my testimonies on several occasions.

But what in a situation whereby you re traveling or going else where and you borded a 14 seaters bus and may God forbid the bus have accident and only you survived. Will you go to church and testify and give thanksgiving?

I have raised this question somewhere before...

Do you think it is proper to do so?

Someone is wondering now, what kind of question is this? And why wouldn't i testify of his goodness upon my life? Hmmm

to this person, ok what if your wife or your only son is involved in that accident, would you still go ahead and testify?

Don't you think that some of these testimonies we hear these days are not really necessary?

Don't you think that such testimony are really selfish and selfcenterdness?

Do you think if Jesus is in a boat and and by accident he lost all his disciples, do you think he will testify for his safety?

We were all leaning anyway. And i stand to be corrected.
Do you think these kinds of testimonies really worth it.

Does any body here has any contrary opinion to these?
Pls let here from you. Thank you.

The person is in order to testify to the goodness of God..... Salvation is personal and it is worked out.... He or she has built or raised an altar of covenant that shielded him or her from the bad experiences of others why would it them be out of place to acknowledge the efficacy of that altar?

Are you through? have you heard of operational cost? Do you know how much they spend every day/week/month/year in buy diesel just for you to have network?
do you also know that cost of doing business in Nigeria is more expensive than other country?
have you also taught about their cable, frequency & fibre optic network that are been vandalize on a daily basis?
I went to MTN office in Cyprus & when they analyse all this to me, i shed tears.

Give em constant power & tell your country-men to stop stealing & vandalizing.

Are they the only network with operating cost, in Nigeria?

We are we the Anambra people.. Peter obi does not own Anambra State, as a matter of fact he is politically irrelevant in the state. We like the waste.. Peter obi claimed he was saving Anambra money and yet was collecting all the interests in the funds and you are bitter because obiano is using Anambra money to benefit Anambra people with illustrious projects.. 2017 is around the corner, you peter obi sycophants will realize how politically irrelevant your paymaster is in the state by then. Obiano is the best thing to happen to Anambra thanks to his rejection of godfatherism. keep ranting nonsense

I read an article on the so called 75 billion naira fund of Mr Obi.... The man bought bonds from states as Osun and and some cases what he was advertising as funds were bonds that will not mature even during the second term of the present governor.

Why would it be overgrown by weeds when it is a university in the making... Or peeps won't send their wards to such a world class medical college?

tinsel:
Obiano said he met no saving and Peter said he saved. Who do we believe?

The former if this is all he gave to the current man is only trying to be clever by half..... All what is in that paper are investment and accruals from fg that takes forever to realize..

When you declare savings it means the cash is in the bank ready to be deployed to whatever the new man needs to do urgently with cash but these are investment thst needs to be retired first with attendant cost from professionals.

These are the churches that criticise other churches for having a picture of Jesus Christ or a cross and the background but a Nigeria art is ok in the church . smh[size=12pt][/size]

Not pictures of Jesus Christ or cross but erecting images and bowing before them.... From that of Mary alone to her carrying the infant Jesus..... Then lying that she had no other child after Jesus Christ
