Was the convention air by any local TV station. I ask because I didn't see it in any of the popular stations like ait, channels, NTA or silver bird

GMBuhari:
I didn;t claim to be overinformed, i said it hasn't been done in a while, if you have a proof it was defended under jonathan clearly share it now

Budget defence is statutory .... it is not at the whims and Caprices of any official ...the reason ha had to beg his lieutenants to appear otherwise there won't be any budget .... it is a vital process of the budgeting process. If you have contrary fact that a budgeting process was circumvented, let the public know.

Go to the archives of NTA or the national assembly and you are going to find videos of ministries defending their proposals before their respective committees of the different chambers of the national assembly.

GMBuhari:
Why do you think there are attacks up and down right and left against Buhari's every activity ?? When was the last time any president called on head of ministries to defend their budget ?? i believe Buhari is threading softly and with each step getting bolder , Buhari told us about padding , i know things are ongoing that we do not know about

You are not informed as you want to believe.... Budgeted fence is statutory. It is not a matter of choice..... It is now that we hear and read that the owners of the budget are persuaded to defend same.


Thee has never been an approved budget without a defence session. If you know of any just state it here.

Grayxme:
This NASS people are representing their pocket, i see no reason why they will reduce the cost of major project and inject projects meant to be done by the state.[color=#006600][/color]

I am certain this your unintelligent and uniformed contribution stems from the fact that you did not read their well articulated and incisive rejoineder to the executive misinformation of Nigerians.

Everyone will market their church, everyone has glowing reasons why they stuck with a particular church... So, you mean Christianity's 2000 year plus history was nothing special until winners was established just 2/3 decades ago?
After all you said, our original debate was about money and contribution. After you were made an angel on joining, you still contributed by way of cash or kind for the functionality of the church right? Or even if you didn't, others did..

You can only market what you have proof of ..... Winners made me crave God like I never ever did before joining them. .... when I heard the presiding Bishop declare that , until the book (Bible) is opened your destiny remains closed. That Jesus discovered what was written concerning him from the book you can't discover yours by wishing and running from prayer house to prayer house but by a search of the scripture, I settled down with that advice. The gospel I was introduced to when I joined was the gospel of power which is on the other side of the cross. ....the resurrection side not the death side.

As for contribution, I have addressed how God was dealing with me to make contribution to a local assembly I went to. What you can't find in winners is the gimmick of altar calls or launching and raffle draws including levies. They are banned in the commission.
The Bishop said the church was launched the day he was called to ministry therefore, no other launching is necessary.
I am not making this up. It is in the constitution of the church

OGHENAOGIE:
I for like give so my blessings go increase and make I move from this low life am living as a graduate ooooo

It is not the giving but the obedience. When God deals it in your heart and spirit to do something and you quickly dive in to do it. Time is of the essence. Your might not be money. Just a relationship with him is all it takes to receive. Get connected and soo he will, be polishing you for an assignment.

Eke40seven:
I understand your point.
But you remeber the saying, "in cash or in Kind"? Those landcruisers and building materials were bought with money weren't they? It was brought by people/members of the church with a sense of duty (or without).
The blessings and money didn't fall from the sky. If I was bribed with a car of 10 million or given 10 million to buy a car of that worth, it doesn't change anything neither does it change the severity of the crime. Note however, that I don't imply that getting funds for NGOs like churches is a crime.

Mr. true Christianity is an experience. It is actually an encounter with the great God. Anyone who calls himself a Christian and has never had this experience of a personal encounter is only playing religion. This experience never leaves you where it met you. It advances you.

It is the encounter within the winners family that drives the giving of members....it is not giving in kind or cash suggestion.

I belive the reason it is easier for Winners members to have this experience is that the commission goes after those who have never had it. Those who have played religion all their lives and has been worst for it. The down and out...like myself, then. Those running from prayer house to prayer house looking for the God of miracles.

This group comes into the church and on welcoming them they are told that if they abide and receive the word for three months and nothing changes in their lives they are free to leave. Many like myself took that challenge and I am the better for it today. Not many came to winners as 'made persons' and you can verify this claim by investigating those who are members.

There is nothing that compares to having that experience. Reading the same scripture you have always had and hearing something from it you have never heard. Having personal revelations in place of unscriptural doctrines. Nothing can compare to it.

Redeem and Mountain of fire are not auditorium, they are tents

Op is wrong, he only knows the ones in his region, East has highest concentration of Christian, that where you will find large numbers Churches or whatever name he call it

This is All Saint cathedral Onitsha

What is the seating capacity of this church.... this thread is about seating capacity of the church

OGHENAOGIE:
that's hw it shd be.... if u have to give give willingly nt under compulsion... Bt d church shd still do more in welfare nd dos who find themselves in top position shd use dier position well lot of people need inspiration

It is a cardinal offence to ask anyone to give under compulsion in Winners. I have been a member for like four years and more. I have the constitution of the church, called mandate. It is an offence that can get a pastor dismissed.

The church has a philosophy that says if they are struggling with a project then God has not commanded it for anything he commands he provides for.... That is the reason they don't own a terrestrial TV and radio station. Until it is commended it is never discussed.... They can easily afford it right now but it is not commanded yet.


Anyone who God deals with to give to a project knows he is set for blessings manifestations for you can never outgoing God. Nothing you give to the work of God leaves your life.... It is blessed and increased and returned..but he must deal with you to give not anyone telling you to come to the altar in the name of altar calls.. It is my experience,as a member of the church.
It is a financially stress free Church.

TundeBricklayer:
Biggest auditorium in Southwest not Nigeria, these are the ones you know because they are in your region.

Adoration ministry Enugu is large with thousands of worshippers across the country and beyond
Same with the one in Uke Anambra state, their are large auditoriums in eastern part 95% of them are Christians unlike west with 50-35-15

Mr. I am from Anambra state and i can tell you that ghere is no auditorium in any catholic church or any other church for that matter in the entire East that is anywhere near 20,000 capacity. I mean a structre owned by the church that sits 20,000 people ..not open fields and shabby tents made with woods and irons like redeemed camp

That international auditorium pictures of yours is probably the size of the area reserved for just the choir at Winners headquarters in Ota.... You can find a video of them on YouTube to confirm

3plechief:
Religion in Nigeria has evolved so much negatively.
I believe in God, but we are simply too religious. I am certain we would have been better off as a people if we hadn't roped in religion into every facet of our lives.
Imagine having such large venues where the gullible lot willingly submit themselves regularly to be exploited by a few.

Unless I am better off than the people whom I seek to advice then I am only foolish....how somebody who doesn't even know the name of his account officer even without being amongst the gullible but consider himself wise , advice another who can seat at home and ask for transfer is beyond me.... How anyone can call somebody with tithe equal to tour months earnings as gullible will remain a wonder

Eke40seven:
How can 40k hectare "house" 1 million people at same time?
We need bloggers who are also professionals and can give figures with proof and not sentiments. Good for them though.
So where do you get the money from? If not altar calls and the rest? Do churches print money? Or "blessings" print money. You need people who are in on it to bring those cash. It doesn't appear by some divine magic.

I can tell you for free that winners don't actually rely on offering to do most of their project s and neither do they ever organise any form of fund raising activity .... It is actually taboo to organise launching if any kind in winners. ...altar call will get a pastor sacked from winners


When I was still worshipping in a particular branch, they started a building project and until that massive structure was completed not for once was a mention made about second collection . People would just go to the pastorand take permission to bring in materials for free. ... You actually took permission and not just bring it. One individual was responsible for buying the pastor a brand new landcrusiser.

It is hpnever been offering money . God just lay it in somebody's heart to do anything he wants changed . A single individual went to the pastor and took permission to replace the ceiling in the state headquarters with POP. ... NOT that the church saidthry wanted to change it but the guy said that was what God laid in his heart to do ..


I will end this way: I am into petroleum products business. I usually have PMS in large quantities at home for power issues. One day I was at home and restless ... God was dealing with me to give pms to local branch I just went to. I just told my wife and she said ...oya na.

When I went back to that local branch around 8pm in the evening, I met the pastor with his other officials having a meeting .... I asked for him since I don't know him and he asked one of them to attend to me ..... I told him what God had laid in my heart and just started laughing and went and told the pastor .... It turned out that the pastor had told them that God said they shouldn't make a budget for PMS as he would cause somebody to make it available.

I went back and brought enough gallons of it for them to make use of for their program. ... This is my personal testimony. They didn't know me. Didn't ask me and never announced it during service .

That is how winners has operated in many of the places you find them

Most of what you listed here as auditorium are actually tents ... makeshift, katako, illegal structures ...eg that redeemed tents is not an auditorium

beejayvince:
When talking about the largest Church auditoriums in Nigeria, some Churches automatically come to mind. This is only natural, considering that these Churches are very popular in this country where many people are deeply into religion.

This post gives a list of the 5 largest Church auditoriums in Nigeria, their capacities, and where they are located.

So, here we go.

1. The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG)
The Redeemed Christian Church of God has the biggest Church auditorium in Nigeria. The auditorium which sits within the Redemption Camp along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway covers over 40,000 hectares of land. It can house up to 1 million worshippers at a time.

2. Mountain Of Fire and Miracles Ministry (MFM)
The Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministry auditorium has a capacity of 500,000 worshippers per time..
Owning a camp ground along Lagos-Ibadan Express way apparently made this Church popular among Nigerians.
The auditorium has an additional overflow which can take up to 250,000 people.

3. Living Faith Church Worldwide (Winners’ Chapel)
Living Faith Church (also known as Winners’ Chapel) is definitely one of the most popular Churches in Nigeria. It is headquartered in Ota, Ogun State.
The Guinness Book of Records once named the headquarters - Faith Tabernacle - the largest Church auditorium in the world.
This auditorium can take up to 50,000 worshippers, with an overflow of extra 250,000.

4. The Apostolic Church
The National Temple of The Apostolic Church is one of the largest auditoriums in Nigeria, after undergoing construction for about 25 years.
It is a 100,000-capacity auditorium situated at the international ground of the Church in Ketu, Lagos State.

5. Deeper Life Christian Ministry
The Deeper Life Bible Church boasts of a 30,000-capacity auditorium as its headquarters in Gbagada, Lagos.
The building covers 6,200 sq. metres, and has an additional 1,624 sq. metres for land spacing, sidewalks and car parks. It also has an additional underground park that can take up to 200 cars at once.

Kenneth4u205:
don't fall into error my brother. The bible said that God does not live in tremble made with human hands (act 17:24 and act 7:48). where God really lives is in our heart .That's the greatest building one can offer to the holy spirit.The heart

That means God is not in any of those sculptural works in the Catholic church. If I am to extrapolate my statement, it means those of the images said to have cried blood were the works of the devil. Am I right?

See what the people you want our team to copy has to say about our attire

https://lailasnews.com/super-eagles-win-best-fashion-team-award-in-russia/

This was your initial post that compared our outfit to that of the Argentines like we were supposed to ape them. And I took you back to the comment of the same people you consider to be the definition of simplicity and smartness.

For all your warts and carbuncle, you are not any where in life close to the designer of that outfit neither is anyone in your entire family more important to Nigeria with whatever accomplishments they might have in their belt than any one of the Nigerian players.

Here is Senegal in their attire .

This is what the world media has to say about the outfit that an inconsequential character like you judged to be off mark ..... your intelligence is ordinary ... read it here




The Nigerian team is already the talk of the 2018 FIFA World Cup as they landed in style in Russia on Monday with stylish traditional attires designed by GT Stiches, a reputable Warri based clothing brand in collaboration with PiolaFootprints, a fast rising Lagos-based footwear brand.

The outfit comprise of a beautiful south-south styled white hat with a green feather, a smooth white native attire with green embroidery of the Super Eagles emblem with an eagle on top of a ball crested on the chest, then with a nice pair of white shoes with green tassels.

“First it was the announcement of their tournament kits that sent football supporters crazy. Now it is their travel attire that has got everybody talking,” The Daily Mail wrote.

“They nailed it with their kits, and have delivered the goods yet again as they boarded their plane to Russia wearing traditional Nigerian clothes, Buba and Sokoto’s

“From head to toe, the Nigerian squad have indulged in their culture and clearly have no intentions of blending in with the crowd other nations looking to upset the odds in Russia.

“While sticking to tradition, however, designers of their outfits have also kept faith with the football them by placing footballs on the collars of the white and green outfits.”

BBC Sport reporter and presenter John Bennett tweeted: “First the amazing shirts, now these outfits… The Nigeria team are only just getting on the plane to Russia but they’re already winning.”

United Kingdom news outlet, The Sun also bared their thoughts on Nigeria’s impressive travel outfit.

“Nigeria once again won the fashion stakes at this year’s World Cup with their incredible travel outfit,” they wrote.

“The Nigeria squad looked every inch the dapper chaps as they arrived in Russia

“This formal look has sent everyone into a frenzy all over again, with the immaculate design being complemented by matching shoes and hats.”

Enough of break away churches. There are over 46,000 broken away churches. Trace your root back to the original church. It requires much humility and acceptance . That church is very much here in Nigeria and worldwide.

What do you mean by original church?

McCoy662:
well I think it's because we haven't seen what we are looking for in the church.
I think Christianity is overatted... don't get me wrong here.
but the truth is that most times, we spend our whole life in the church, praying and fasting but life gets no better. some have been killed with juju even in the church. so many strange happenings has made many lost their faith in Christianity. for me, sometimes I doubt if Christianity is real because I have seen a lot. there are some traditional things that get bypass as per being a Christian.... u may be strong in faith but if u dare some traditional things, u will face the consequences.


Just like last month or so in Delta State, a man accused his wife of infidelity. by tradition, the wife is supposed to go for cleansing before she could cook for the husband again. but the man being an elder in the church opted for church diverance, the wife was "delivered" and she went back to her husband but few days later, the man died.

so for me Christianity and tradition has their limits.

Titles are meaningless in the kingdom. Your title entitles you to nothing in God. You can be a Bishop and still die in the hands of witches. It answers to genuine relationship with God. A genuine walk is what guarantees your supernatural character. You need your imagination when walking with Christ because you need to SEE what he is saying not hear.... Habbakuk said, will stand my watch and SEE what the Lord would say to me.

When you get to the point of seeing what somebody is saying you have entered the other realm. Christianity is an experience. It is what makes it different from religion. If you have never had an experience of an encounter with God you are practicing religion.

You never heard his voice, never received anything supernaturally you are in a religious crowd. The danger of using the name of God to practice religion is that you are open to attack from the satanic enclave anytime


The most dangerous assemblage to be is that that is deprived of the presence of the Christ...... The Anointing and power.

A church can be first and still lack the real presence of the Christ.

SokizzRaven:
Churches never had anything, it is all entertainment and social activities nothing more. Let me ask how did churches came in to being? cause I never read anywhere that Jesus established a church during his life time

Jesus didn't establish any but gave his disciples charge to make followers of all mankind... All the letters Paul sent to different cities like Corinth, Antioch, Ephesus, etc were written to churches.

uuzba:
If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, "be uprooted and plant yourself in the sea" and it will do it.
This is what Jesus tells us.

But people spend a lot of time in places worshiping THE PASTOR.

They quote Bible left and right. But I never heard anyone quote Jesus Christ himself from Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
-
In summary, they have no faith in Jesus Christ.

You never heard anyone quote Jesus from Matthew, Mark, Luke and John........exactly what are you trying to put across to the forum

akeentech:
They don't believe in God, They can't wait for that long cos it takes long time for God to answer

It doesn't take long for God to answer to anyone. It takes connectivity. If you are connected to the vine, you will manifest the supernatural as occasion demands because it will be your natural habitat.


Everytime God answers anyone it is always instantaneous. Every encounter produces testimony..... The entrance of the word giveth light...not starts to give light...... Light comes immediately it is switched on...it must doesn't wait for some seconds or minute to come up and darkness has no power over it
