Not sure if am 100% correct in interpretation, but he said something like 2030 being a reference of some sort, according to his calculation and then the rapture could either happen like 3 years before then, or 6 years there about after, or 10 years or something. So it was like a theoretical analysis. Do I know if he is right or wrong. NO! I don't have any research or deep knowledge on it. But I won't just insult and ridicule him for putting out such a theory. Most of the scientific laws we have in the world today were once theories put forward by people and during their time many of them were dismissed by their societies as either being crazy or stupid or heretic or possessed or something negative. But the wise societies didn't write them off outrightly, they sponsored expeditions and research to thoroughly analyse whatever those claims were, and sometimes in the process of trying to check if such theories were true, it was either they discovered Yes, it's true, or NO, it isn't true and then because they were doing their own research they sometimes will come up with a modified theory or a new theory that actually works. These are the things that fuelled human advancement. There was a time the theory that man could fly was considered stupid and crazy and impossible etc, but look at where we are today, because some people actually took the time to verify or disprove those theories. So for me, I think theories are good. At least, it presents a challenge for rational activities and helps to expand knowledge as people try to either workout such theories as correct or prove them wrong. Whichever the outcome is, it is good for Humanity. Thomas Edison speaking relative to theories that birth research and inventions said something like, He didn't fail, he just discovered 1000 ways it wouldn't work. So sometimes, to succeed we must fall first. Is Pastor Chris right about his theory? I DON'T KNOW. I really don't have an idea. But I love the fact that he tried to do something significant. I mean, the rapture is averu significant event and if we are even able to compute and understand or figure out a correct period for its possible occurrence, I think that's a very giant leap for Christianity and the world at large. Now that he has put forward this theory, I believe and expect other people, maybe theologians or pastors or religious community to look at what he said, and make a review to try to understand it first of all, and then analyse it to verify whether it's accurate or not. In the process, more theories might come forward, and before you know it, someone might eventually come up with something accurate and factual, or prove whether this theory Pastor Chris gave is true or not true. So it will cause people to try to push their boundary of knowledge further and test their minds for better ideas, and this is a good thing for Humanity. This is how we made progress this far. All the scientific laws we have today, whether physics, chemistry, biology or science in general, they were all theories at the beginning. It was when people made the effort to prove or disprove them, that they became laws after their authenticity were confirmed. That's it. So me I don't know why some people now have to turn this thing to an insult contest. If we keep ridiculing people like that, then we will kill the drive for creativity in people, because they will be afraid to come out or speak about the ideas or theories they found about for fear of being stigmatized by society. So I won't support that. I support creativity, I support free thinking. Yes some crazy ideas may come from time to time, but it will die natural death when it is found to be false. But then again, the best ideas also come from creativity and free thinking. That's part of the beauty of life

Jerusalem1:
what phone?

Agbegbaorogboye:
The questions I keep asking you are,
1. Why highlight his religion or tribe in an effort to ask for equal treatment. Was his religion highlighted as the cause of his removal?
2. Why pick only Wike and OBJ when you desire equal treatment before the law. Why not add Malami the chief law officer of the present admin which has repeatedly abused human rights? At least that will send a stronger than usual message to the present govt?
Can you in honesty answer these questions or are you also a bigot like the man you're defending?

techmo:
Now I get your problem clearly

It's simply English

Cash Payment , cash transaction VS Cash Withdrawal




Cash Payment ;
A cash payment is bills or coins paid by the recipient of goods or services to the provider. It can also involve a payment within a business to employees in compensation for their hours worked, or to repay them for minor expenditures that are too small to be routed through the accounts payable system

What this means is Tinubu can't buy products and services or make payment exceeding 5 million without notifying financial authorities


When ? where ? And how ? did Tinubu make a " cash payment" exceeding 5 million.. payment to who ? for what ? any evidence to back such claims

But if the thread read 'Bandits Airstrike hits soldiers camp, many soldiers kill',
All you pessimists will believe instantly,
Swallow the news, hook, line and sinker,
without looking for any source.
What a way to live life.
Happy to know that not everyone has your kind of reasoning.
We just don't know why they think other people are shallow and pedestrian,
they just can not see or reason beyond negativity and bigotry.

Shey this man said he was going to fumigate the whole Nigeria against mosquitoes?

Nooel1:
You're a daft! When the president sent his name to Senate for confirmation the head of DSS revealed damning evidence against him bothering on corruption. He was asked to appear before the senate and clear the allegation levied against him by the DSS but he refused.

Make una dey read before coming online to vomit trash

hardeycute:
This is to point to the fact that the Saraki led senate didn't do wrong by not confirming Magu.

Won't happen but las las hush done chop money flex life lived lavish flown choppers, flown private, mingled with celebs obtained connections, became a known international brand.

No jail can take that away if he comes out of prison he will be better than most poor Nigerians because he has a platform, he has connections, he has experience and so on. He won't be starting from square 1

Most Nigerians live in houses worst than American prisons me typing this have not seeing electricity in 42 hours straight, I paid aboki 50 bucks to charge my phone, American prisons have 24/7 electricity, gym, free TV, free phone calls and free food

Dude, forget tribalism here... let's call a spade whatever it is called! All these NONSENSE got to stop at some point and we need to start realizing evil for whatever it is.

thariodamaniac:
so because every one is jumping inside swimming pool the one dat doesnt know how to swim should follow shay??
Some companies will simply stop allowing nigerians use their services so they dont pay tax.... It probably because you havent come to a forum that was very important to ur development and you see something like "sorry we dont accept nigerian".... We are meant to look forward to what will benefit us not cripple us

I'm sorry, I've been out of this country and do business in 3 different countries presently. I know implication of tax but it's unfortunate that you are yet to come to terms that Nigerians are paying heavy tax with nothing to show for it

Cars is cheap in Canada because import duty there is very low whereas used cars is very expensive in Nigeria because import duty is on high side. Same thing goes to lots of imported products, nobody is talking about toothpick here even almighty America do import so please don't tell me patronize naija things. Import duty was part of tax if you care to listen and directly or indirectly, you as final consumer of all imported products pay tax

Go to Dubai or ask anyone living in dubai to tell you how much they pay as tax, & compare Dubai with Nigeria.

Nigeria is taking loans that will be shared among few people while hard working poor Nigerians repay the loan

See, not until you begin to reason like common man and not praise singer of politician before you begin to see things the way common man sees it

I have container coming from China as we speak and I pray I remember your moniker when I wanna clear it, I will show you what we paid some years back as against what we pay now

Bottom line, EXCESSIVE TAX HAS NEVER BE OF ANY USE IN THE LIFE OF COMMON NIGERIANS

Where I lives, we hired both police & local vigilante offices to guard our area when government has failed to provide security which was part of the reason we pay tax

See, am tired of educating you

Don't even go to saying advance country bla bla bla, am not local bro

In advance country, people see what government spent their tax on and that's not the case here in Nigeria

What's minimum wage in advance country that you mentioned compared to this place?


I ASK AGAIN, WHO PAYS TAX LEVIED ON CABLE TV OPERATORS, SUBSCRIBERS OR OPERATORS?

yesloaded:
What you failed to understand is that it's not every business that you passed burden of rubbish tax on your customer

I doubt you are a business man anyway so I will leave you to your things

Mind you, I know what am saying when I complain about excessive tax

Go and ask importers how far and they will tell you whats up

I won't argue with you any further because you seems not to understand what we are discussing here

yesloaded:
Some have lost over 500k

If you do business that requires moving of money into your account then you will understand what am saying

Ask any eccurency exchanger around you the numbers of credit & debit transactions they have each day. In a day you can have over 100 transactions!

Use your head

Check below image, USA govt imposed tax on ebay purchase but it's customer that ended up paying the tax

Gotv & dstv subscription should tells you who's paying the tax imposed on the company by FG

yesloaded:
That's what the likes of seunmsg failed to comprehend

If I tell you how much have lost to FG between the month of April till now all in the name of stamp duty, it's enough to purchase landed property yet I couldn't feel any impact of tax.

I ll advise you should go back to school & learn English, reasoning & anything that can save you from futures shame.
You are the pig here. You said primary reasoning. You are now lying & denying it. You are petty.
I v my manners but wont hesitate to throw sticks at dogs like you.
You are the one without training.
Thinking you are dealing with an indomie generation.
I fit no be your mate!
I repeat check my info & see for yourself to know your elder

OkikiOluwa1:
you are mad. A stupi d youth claiming elder. Hope you can see that my account is as old as your brain!
You called me primary reasoning. I called you creche you started crying over Messi & Ronaldo matter.
I m entitled to my post.
I even gave a logical one.
And you are here abusing me. You don't want me to talk back.
Iyalaye e!
Your ancestors & generations altogether.
You this nincompoo p, child of nobody & a useless internet cry baby.
Your entire generations no get brain.
Born troway, born by mistake.
Cry more!

OkikiOluwa1:
mumu. Na u be creche reasoning.
FIFA once said team wins matter.
In the past that goals alone don't count, Thierry Henry deserved 2006 balloon dor. Shevchenko deserved that of 2004.

You think u r chatting wt ur mate?
I ll lecture u abt soccer

BreconHills:
On what basis do you find it difficult?
1. The population data of 40% of the population being U14?
2. Population growth rate of 3.5% p.a?
3. The infrastructure gap of $31bn that is holding back Nigeria's young people?
4. The fact that concessional borrowing is the only way we are going to finance this based on the reality of low oil prices?
5. The fact that foreign bond holders have much better statistics and data than most of us have basically voted that Nigerias loans are a good idea and that there is sufficient headroom for repayments?
6. Or is it the fact that Nigeria unlike many western countries has never defaulted on debt obligations?
7. Or the fact that if we are to save our way out of this, we will basically be saying bye bye to anyone over 10 years old?

Which of these 7 things are you struggling with? Look I get it - you don't trust the government, maybe you don't even like them ' but heck bud, you don't have a lot of choice right now. You are in the same position as a passenger in a plane at 30,000 feet who decides he doesn't like the pilot and he wants to get off!

I said on this same platform some months ago when dome people were rejoicing when the senate was having a fit over these loans and I said both houses have NO choice but to approve them. That's the reality and we need to live by them. The only thing we can do is hold them to account. But loan or no? That question is irrelevant now.

OkikiOluwa1:
That award belonged to Griezman, Mbappe, Sterling, De Bruyne, Salah, Can Dijk or Mane.
Not Messi.
Those folks achieved & won more than Messi in 2019.
If you counter me baselessly, I ll reveal why Messi isn't deserving of all his awards
