The fact that a car is parked in front of your house does not make the car yours. It could be an event holding in her house.

In addition, posing with a car does not make the car yours.

She is not the only one in the buisness. Please provide concrete proof that all the cars belong to her.

But some Christians pray through Mary.
Some are against voting.
Some have books that complement the Bible.

You have the opportunity to read and find out the truth for yourself. There will always be false teachers and wrong doctrines. It's your personal responsibility to study and find out the truth for yourself. So many people don't study and that is why they are easily gullible to all forms of teachings.

You don't pray through Mary. You don't even pray through Jesus. You pray in the name of Jesus.

Voting is your civic responsibility and the Bible says we should obey those who have been set as rulers over us.

The compilation of the books that makes up the Bible were done by our spiritual fathers. If other books were not included at that time, it did not meet up with the criteria set.

I strongly agree with him

Have you studied the Bible personally before agreeing with him?

Firstfruits offering is biblical but it does not have to be your whole month salary. Simply give your best. This is where the Church has missed it. The doctrine itself is not wrong but the interpretation and practice is wrong.

In anything we do in life, the first belongs to God. That is the honour we owe God. And if you honour God, God will honour you. It's an eternal principle.

Even the traditionalist pour out drinks to their ancestors before they drink. This is their belief so that their ancestors can continue to bless them.

Pastor Oritsejafor, the former CAN President and Senior Pastor of Word of Life Bible Church, located in Warri, Nigeria, has been called out by social media users for allegedly asking members to pay $5,000 for a mantle.

Pastor Oritsejafor who asked 90 members of Morris Cerullo's church in the United States to pay $5,000 for the mantle, said they won't miss God if they do.  A Nigerian pilot who called him out over the claims, accused him of being a charlatans who has turned Yahweh into a God that needs money.

He wrote;

Nigerian Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor was in Morris Cerullo’s church in America recently, looking for 90 people to give 5000USD each (450,000USD) for a mantle so they do not miss God. My question is, those that don’t have 5000USD to give, are they going to miss GOD? -

These charlatans have turned Yahweh into a God that needs money(mammon). Is it not written in 1 Peter 1:18 that we were redeemed without perishable things such as silver and gold but with the precious blood of Christ?? “For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect” -

Why then do people need to pay 5000USD so they don’t miss God
I guess in America where poverty level is not has high as Nigeria and health care is top notch the only thing to sell to the gullible believers is Salvation. -

I don’t believe God has sent you to collect peoples money so they don’t miss HIM, and like you said in the earlier parts of this video you’re a crazy man Pastor Ayo.

He called himself crazy I only rephrased it in my previous post. Africans are crazy people indeed, to build the largest church auditorium in the poverty capital of the world. Crazy people when una go get sense JC

This is what most Pastors are forced to do but it is wrong. When you are invited for a program by another church, they expect you to raise money for them from which they will in turn use to honour you. The more money you raise, the greater the honorarium.

UrbanExotica:
If i decide to donate $5,000 its no one's business

But you donate with sense not just because you were lured with a big fat lie.

Which of the Christian Gods are you talking about?

There is only one God and one mediator between God and man, our Lord Jesus Christ.

HellVictorinho:
I've gone through 'receiving' him before.

May be you were not properly counseled on how to grow in your new found faith. A young believer is like a tender plant. Whether the plants grow to maturity and survive the harsh weather depends on the gardener who looks after the plant. The young convert also has a personal responsibility to walk in the light of God's word. So, whatever happens that truncated your walk with God, you can rededicate your life to God. It's the best way to live your life and secure your eternal destiny.

The world has so much fun to offer but it's at the expense of your soul. The suffering in hell is not worth the pleasure this world has to offer. The Spirit of God is drawing you back to God now. The choice is yours.

HellVictorinho:
I've heard that before.

Then go a step further by receiving him. You will be the one preaching to others thereafter. It's real. It's an experience you will never forget.

Who/What is God?

God is the creator of the universe. He has no beginning and has no end. He is holy and just. He is a faithful God. He is loving and caring. He loves you and me. He wants the best for you. He is offering you the free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Please, open the door of your heart and let him in. He will fill you with peace and love that money cannot bye.

I'm not sure you fully grasp the idea of omniscience.

An omniscient being like God has no limit to his knowledge. He knows ALL things. He knows every action you'll take, every word you'll speak (See Psalm 139:1-4 ; Psalm 44:20). He literally consists of ALL knowledge in the universe. So you can't confidently say that God didn't know the choices Adam and Eve would make.

I agree with you. But we are limited in our understanding and cannot question God on certain things. But one thing I do know is that your destiny is in your decision. He has a good plan for us but it's up to you to decide your destiny. He has given us the opportunity to choose between life and death. So, make a wise choice rather than doting into questions that would not change any thing.

When will they arrest the killer herdsmen and their sponsors? Useless APC led government.

Agrogbeide:
The thing nor taya you my brother.
Just waiting for these revelations.

The writing of Apostle Paul revealed so many things that are not contained in any other book not even the gospel. And these revelations were given to him by Jesus.

1. Apostle Paul revealed that we died with Jesus, buried with him and also rose together with him in the mind of divine justice. You do not read such things in any other book.

2. Apostle Paul talked about the mystery of church that were hidden in ages. That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs and partakers of his promise in Christ. Even our Lord Jesus before his crucifixion did not see the church age. He taught his mission was for the Jews only. That was why he told the Canaanite woman that he was sent to the lost sheep of Isreal - Matthew 15:24.

3. Apostle Paul also revealed that when God made the promise to Abraham, he made it to him and his seed. He said that seed is Christ which includes the Church. So, we are the faith seed of Abraham. You don't get such revelations in any other book.

4. Apostle Paul taught us so clearly that the law of Moses has been abolished. You don't get such in any other book.

5. Apostle Paul revealed to us how the rapture will take place. This is not revealed to us in any other book.

6. Apostle Paul revealed to us the future plan God has for the Jews who are currently blind in part. You don't get this in any other book.

I could go on and on. Please, stop posting contradiction between Jesus and Paul. Apostle Paul is a servant of Christ and he taught was his master revealed to him.

XxSabrinaxX:
He did, didn't he?

Now you'll agree with me that God is omniscient, right? I mean that's one of His defining properties. All knowledge of the past, present and the future is contained in him. All his choices are predetermined. He cannot have free will because that would contradict His omniscience. There's no logic to be found there.

So are you telling me that God was not aware of the choices Adam and Eve would make when the Serpent seduced them? There are only two logical answers i can draw out here

a) He was fully aware of the choices they'd make, but went ahead to punish them and their subsequent descendants with pain, labour, suffering, death etc. Explain to me how God is benevolent in this scenario? He knew exactly what was going to happen but he went ahead to plant that Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and create a sin loop in the process.

b) He was not aware of the choices they'd make which completely contradicts God's omniscience.

Psalm 147:5
Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite.

1 John 3:20
in whatever our heart condemns us; for God is greater than our heart and knows all things.

Psalm 139:1-4
Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD, You know it all.

Matthew 10:30
"But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

Hebrews 4:13
And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

Psalm 139:1-3
O LORD, You have searched me and known me. You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.

Psalm 44:21
Would not God find this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.

So, if i may ask, what's God's excuse?

Yes, God knows all things but he puts your destiny in your hands. He is not aware they were going to transgress but he is aware of the consequences if they do transgress.

God is love and love does not think evil. He did not expect them to transgress because he believes the best of them. But in case they do, he also knew what to do.

It's just like when you trust someone, there are things you don't expect them to do.

He is all knowing but his love nature only allows him to see the good part of us. But he warns you of the consequences of taking certain decisions.

I knew it was going to be a soldier from the south. The government wants to deplete the numbers of soldiers from the south. And when that happens, they will launch their jihad. Nigeria wake up.

kolafolabi:
HUMAN rights lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana, SAN, yesterday, called on the lawmaker representing Kogi West Senatorial district, Senator Dino Melaye to end the siege by submitting himself for arrest without any further delay.

He, however, cautioned the Police to conduct Melaye’s arrest, investigation and prosecution in strict compliance with the relevant provisions of the penal statutes and the Constitution.

In a statement Falana flayed the Police for the sensationalization of the planned arrest of the Senator.

His words: “The fundamental right of every citizen to personal liberty is guaranteed by section 35 of the Constitution of Nigeria and article 6 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights. The right may however be violated by the State if there is reasonable suspicion that any citizen has committed a criminal offence. The Nigeria Police Force recently announced its plan to arrest Senator Dino on the allegation that he has committed the offences of criminal conspiracy and attempted culpable homicide. The Senator did not respond to the invitation of the Police on the grounds that the permission of the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki was not sought and obtained.

“Convinced that the Senator has decided not to submit himself for investigation, a team of police personnel have surrounded his residence with a view to effecting his arrest. The siege to the house by the Police has needlessly lasted for 6 days. It has been reported that the supply of electricity and water to the house has been disconnected by the Police. Such action cannot be justified in law. There is no doubt that the Nigeria Police Force has itself to blame for the sensational planned arrest of the Senator.

”The Police ought to have affected the arrest of the Senator under the relevant provisions of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015 which empower the Police and other law enforcement to break into any house to arrest if there is evidence that any criminal suspect against whom a warrant of arrest has been issued by any court has absconded or is concealing himself or herself so that the warrant cannot be executed.”

Rubbish. They should go after the killer herdsmen first. Useless government trying to silence the voice of opposition.

XxSabrinaxX:
I have one question for you: who planted the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden of Eden?

God did.

Satan has been defeated but has not been dethroned. He is still the God of this present world system. He will be dethroned when Jesus comes to establish his Millennium Reign on earth. So, it is still in the future. Meanwhile, if you are born again, you have authority over the devil. He cannot rule over you.

XxSabrinaxX:
This is my first thread on NL. I've noticed how passionate people on these religion forums are when matters like these are brought. So i just felt like i should try my hand at debating on NL.

Hell is a horrible idea. If God truly thinks that our “freewill” based on a limited time on earth means most of us have to live in a “hell” forever, then
yes, he’s evil, and terribly insane. However, i also want to add that if hell actually exists, then the cold truth is that ultimately, most of the human race is going there. Some Christians like to downplay this. It’s an undeniable fact if we applied Christian theology, there's really no debate.
This not only makes God evil, but portrays Satan as a smarter, more efficient presence amongst man, resulting in Satan winning his purpose over Jesus.
Jesus came to earth to save mankind. Judging by the kind of lives we live, i think its safe to say that God has been highly incompetent in making man see the truth.

You got it wrong. God did not create hell for you. Hell was created for the devil and his demons. When God created man, he made him a free moral agent. Man sinned and became subject to death and Satan. So, he was destined to go to hell since Satan was already hell bound. So what God did through Jesus was a rescue mission. If you believe in Jesus, your destiny will be reprogrammmed for heaven. Anyone who reject this offer of salvation has chosen to remain on the pathway of hell.

So, it is not like God said, believe in Jesus or you go to hell. We were already hell bound but in his infinite love, came and rescued us. So, the choice is yours. Reject the offer of salvation and continue your journey to hell. Accept Jesus and change your direction of travel to heaven.

Confused op and his likes. Apostle Paul built on the foundation Jesus laid. He did not contradict Jesus, rather, his teachings were revelations received from Jesus himself. Pls, stop posting useless and baseless contradiction between Jesus and Paul. There is no such thing. Jesus laid the foundation, Apostle Paul built on it.

Foolish followers. We wrestle not against flesh and blood and the weapons of our warfare are not carnal.

I thought by now everyone living in those vicinity prone to herdsmen attack should have armed themselves with some form of defensive weapons and be vigilant 247. Nigeria youths are indeed lazy. They should continue to wait for government until they are all finished.

You see this man...ASUU is the group in contention and he is meeting with the wrong people.

It's not about the strike. It's a cover up. It's about the election. What has NANS got to do with ASUU strike? They are just the victim of the strike. Dishonest and confused government.

Foolish and selfish Ngige. You will ever remain slave forever..So your motive for supporting Buhari is so that Igbo can get presidency in 2023. This is the height of selfishness. You want a murderer to keep ruling because you want the presidency. You are among the blood suckers then. God will deliver Nigeria from your hands in Jesus name.

And our useless police will not arrest anyone of them but can lay siege on Dino's house as though he is the most wanted criminal. I really wonder why any sane person will still be loyal to this wicked government who do not have value for human life.

Are you born again? If the answer is yes, then rebuke it in the name of Jesus and it will not repeat itself. If the answer is no, then give your life to Jesus and you will be delivered from the power of darkness.

Thank God for large crowd but the Church has deviated from sound teachings that is hinged on righteousness. Most Pastors just tell the flock what they want to hear and not what they should hear.

alBHAGDADI:
There is currently a false gospel out there which says once you accept Jesus and you go back to sin, you will lose your salvation. They make is seem like you are the one who saved yourself, hence their talk of you losing your salvation. So many people believe in this garbage gospel which is leading them straight to hell fire. Such people have called God a liar.

The proponents of this counterfeit gospel love to use Judas Iscariot as an example that one can lose his salvation. But was Judas Iscariot ever saved? Let the Bible enlighten us on that. First of all, what is the criteria for having everlasting life? It is the believe in Jesus.


John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Remember what Paul and Silas told that prison keeper when he asked what he could do to be saved.

Acts 16:30-31
30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

As seen above, the only way to be saved is by believing in Jesus as the saviour. Now, did Judas Iscariot believe in Jesus? No he didn't and wasn't the only disciple of Jesus who didn't believe in him (hope you know Jesus had other disciples asides the 12). Read the below passage to see how Jesus pointed them out including Judas Iscariot.

John 6:53-71
53Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

As seen in verse 64, Jesus knew those disciples of his that believed not in him and the one who will betray him. In verse 65, many of such disciples left him and went their way because they didn't believe in him. This made Jesus to ask his special 12 disciples if they were also going to leave him.

John 6:67-71
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

Notice how Peter answered saying that they are staying with Jesus because they believe he has the words of ETERNAL LIFE and that they BELIEVE he is Christ the Son of God. Remember how John 3:16 said those who believe in Jesus have eternal life.

In Peter's mind all the 12 disciples believed in Jesus, but it wasn't so in the eyes of Jesus who knew one of them didn't believe in him. See what he said below.

70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

Clearly, Judas was never ever saved because he didn't believe in Jesus and he also was a devil as described by Jesus himself. So, for someone to sit somewhere and say Judas lost his salvation is the height of deceit.

Now, all those who believe they can lost their salvation are calling God a liar, and this clearly shows that they are not saved. They call God a liar by not believing in his record which he gave of his Son Jesus Christ.

1 John 5:10
He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

You might say "oh, what is the record God gave of his Son?"
Just continue to the next verse because His stated what the record is.

1 John 5:11
And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

One thing you need to know is that the moment you accept Jesus as your saviour and you believe in him, you immediately get the holy spirit who is the witness seen in verse 10 above. Then you immediately get eternal or everlasting life. Even John 3:16 says the same thing.

Now, how are people calling God a liar? They call God a liar by not believing the record that God has given us eternal life. They believe once you sin after accepting Jesus, you immediately lose your salvation which means you have lost the eternal life God gave you for believing in Jesus. If they believe you can lose that eternal life, then was it ever eternal at all? Eternal life means never ending and this is fully achieved upon the resurrection, but you have it now. So if someone tells you you can lose your salvation, that person is saying God lied when he said he gave you eternal life for believing in his son. You have eternal life and you are not condemned because you believe in Jesus.

John 3:18
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

John 5:24]
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

All those who believe sin can make you lose your salvation are not trusting in Jesus who has come to save us from our sins. They are trusting in their works of righteousness to save them. They are clearly going to hell fire for rejecting Jesus and trying to save themselves. Works can't save you, it is only the grave of God through faith/believe in Jesus that can save you.

Ephesians 2:8-9
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Christ has taken upon himself our sins and transfered his righteousness to us. That is why we are eternally saved regardless of whether we live holy or not.

1 Corinthians 5:21
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

The true gospel is so sweet and a good news because it states that even if you do no works of righteous but you believe in Jesus, you still will make heaven because your faith in God has made you righteous.

Romans 4:5
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

Brothers, if you have believed in the false doctrine that says you can lose your salvation, please now is the time to throw it away. Leave that false church which is selling that counterfeit gospel to you. Find a church which believes in eternal security, but first say the below prayer.

" Father, I believe your son Jesus Christ has come to save me from ny sins because I cannot save my save. I hold on to your word which says those who believe have eternal life. Accept me because I now believe in those words."..Amen.

Your teaching is manipulative. You quote portions of Scripture that appears to support your pre conceived opinions and ignore others that contradicts it.

You pretend not to know that their are so many saved believers who commit sin as though they have never seen the gate of a church. You mean once you are born again, it doesn't matter what you do, you will go to heaven. You are an agent of darkness disguised as a minister of light.

Don't tell me you are not aware of even Pastors who commit adultery and fornication. Do, they will still make heaven even if they don't repent.

Please read your Bible well and stop deceiving people. End time false teachers.

Paid crowd. When you sell your soul to the devil, he will come for it one day.
