OF course ola's sect, is one of those that broke from the church because of another heresy.

It just happens that his heresy isnt a denial of the nature of Jesus like the arianism of the jw.

My dear google is ur friend, google catholic defiance of apathied in south africa and then you will see that jw did nothing.

It was the catholic church that educated black and white kids together against the law, it was the catholic church that went in civil disobedience against unjust apathied laws, it was owen cardinal mccain who was busy writting against the apathied goverment. the church that support that rubbish was d dutch church.

Rwanda was an ethnic crisis that became a genocide and while many catholic were involved, several catholics also hid the tutsi saved them, and helped them excaped, many catholics were killed by the militia for helping. But of course u are only interested in those who let ethnic sentiments rule them.

YES Jesus said that!
So you meant He was a confusionist, not a Prince of Peace!
If his followers can't become a global family then what did he mean by the word UNION at John 13:35, 17:23?
And what did Paul mean by oneness at 1Corinthians 1:10,Philippians 2:2?

Then maybe u are new to christianity, Christ's followers have been united for 2000 yrs but every age a new group comes out with a new heresy, just like the arian heresy the jw believe, or a new group comes with a political intrigue, that not withstanding the church har maintained one faith in one Lord.

So the same text 'Hades' has different meanings based on the judgment of the Council of Nicaea!
So all the Bible texts where Hades is mentioned could be fine-tuned to mean different things because of Jesus' illustrations of Lazarus and the rich man!
Please you need to open a theology school!

Now you are purposely playing dumb.

1 cor 3:15 shows us how God saves the imperfect believer...it is that process that is name purgatory.

Hades has more than one meaning in greek, thayers lexicon clearly shows that, if you didnt know that then you are the jjc.

hades can mean the repose disembodied spirits, a dark place and Jesus says the punishment of d wicked happens there.

No wonder their teaching has been able to yield positive fruits and also unite people of all races under one umbrella as a global family of worshipers better than what the JWs have achieved worldwide! Matthew 7:15-20, Galatians 5:22,23

Jesus also said, do not think i have come to bring peace to the earth but the sword, father against son, mother against daughter, a man's enemy shall be members of his house hold.

The church did create a worldwide family but it also fulfilled scripture.

OK so the place where the dead goes is in three fractions!
¤The dead of the holy ones goes to where?
¤JUSTIFIED but yet purified goes to Purgatory!
¤DAMNED,WICKED and REPROBATE goes to hell!
Well-done Sir,it is the Bible that's causing the confusion NOT you nor your Vatican!
Because the Bible teaches that all the dead are going to HELL[Grave]! Job 14:13, Ecclesiastes 9:10, Psalms 16:10, Act 2:31 Revelations 20:13
Had it been that the Bible made mention of Purgatory this wouldn't have been an issue, thanks for correcting the INSPIRED Bible writers on the what they supposed to have written but forgot [PURGATORY]!

1ST, Hades is mention in different senses in the bible, both as the general abode of the dead and a place of torment particularly in the case of the rich man.

the bible also talks abt purgatory, when it mentions purification and salvation for the imperfect believer in 1 cor 3.

@brocab, Please! Please!! Why not sincerely Google 'Council of Nicaea' to know the History of the churches and how all these Misinformation, Misrepresentation and misconceptions began. It will help you a lot instead of just arguing blindly because what that council laid down has gain ground in the life of lazy churchgoers like you!

The council of Nicaea did not misinform or misrepresent anything, these was a gathering of bishops whom many among them had already lost eyes, legs or arms due to persecution not apostates, they came from all over the know world to clearly proclaim the christian faith.

there teaching is clear and it certainly condemn the arian heresy the jw believe.

The last Pope before Francis resigned immediately when appointed!
Because he is overage,yet the Vatican appointed him as the next Viva Papa after John Paul
Of course there is nothing tangible to teach when your Vatican that's supposed to teach you themselves are confused!

The pope before Francis was Benedict xvi, he didnt resign immediately he was elected, he was pope for over 5 years before he resigned because his strength was failing and he was old.

You are the person confused as usual, purgatory is for the the just(ified) whose sanctification wasnt completed here on earth, and God purifies them at judgement according to 1 cor 3,
hell is for the damned, the wicked, the reprobate.

Hope u can now see the difference? The is nothing confusing there and the vatican is pretty clear abt it.

Family › Re: My Adult Daughter Is Too Close To Me. Is It Normal, Appropriate? by Ubenedictus(m): 9:29am On Apr 01, 2019

Now listen,

your daughter is close to you and that is a GOOD thing especially since she is a lady, if you are open to her you will know when she starts dating, you'll know the guy and youll know her challenges. You'll be a guy man.

BUT, as you noted she is too close! but dont push her away, dont be firm! usually when u remove a lady from a close relationship she will immediately try to replace it with something else, that is how women make mistakes. Dont take the firm route at all.

Invite he to walk you home from work, on the way shift the discussion to the topic of privacy and teach her about it. Remind her u dont mind but it is good to respect her body, let her talk, let her air her mind, end with a joke and change the topic to something lighter.

She will gradually keep her body, allow her sleep in ur bed if it doesnt disturb u, u will notice that gradually she will adjust.

from there keep it close without inviting her past the normal boundries.

las las it will be alrite. DPRmoniker

Torture Certainly! as you can't provide a reasonable explanation on the rubbish the Catholics taught you
Arrogant NO!
Ignorant Probably,
Because i put it to you that for the past 2,000 years,the Vatican has been in confusion whether to hold onto the Hellfire or Purgatory!
So it's your duty now to give a comprehensive analysis on how both Purgatory and Hellfire correlates, your Viva Papa has chosen one but the Vatican silenced him. Why not explain if truthfully you're not just been heady about the complicated theories of Hellfire and Purgatory? For your information,that is why so many groups left the Roman Catholic Church till today!
Hmmm you're scared of becoming a laughing stock before Nairalanders, none of those so called churches of Protestants will agree with the teaching of Purgatory because it totally contradicts the doctrine of Hellfire!

IT DOESNT, and i dont have the time to teach u either.

I was once a seminarian and once a devout Catholic. I had a chronic battle with the issue of sexual thoughts. I need to say that those recommendations about overcoming sexual temptations never worked for me. When the urge gets really serious, you can only delay it temporarily by your efforts, but you will eventually succumb after some time.

That must be for u then, it does work for me.

I think the Catholic church should also condemn drinking alcohol because it is also habit forming and more destructive to one's health and personality than masturbation, in addition to the fact that the alcohol addict is a danger to his fellow humans.

that kind of rule will also condemn Jesus.

Alcohol is not a sin but the catholic church condemn all addiction.

You do not delibrate on issues that are clearly spelt out in the work of God. Acts 15 is about administrative issues which are not sin or clearly spelt out. For all other issues, the Bible remains the standard. No rulling can upturn the word of God.

Did any body upturn the word of God in this case? You just want to argue without cause!

In fact in act 15 a part of the word of God was upturned, the part on circumcision.

Act 15 isnt abt administrative issues it was abt faith and morals, on what basis a gentile is to be accepted and how much jewish law should be part of his morals.

Which other zones? There are only 4 zones namely NW, NE, NC and SW. 4 zones to share 8 major positions. That implies 2 positions per zone. SW has chosen VP and Speaker. NW has the president, so one more position for the NW. NE has taken Senate President, NC will have DSP or Deputy Speaker. There is still Majority Leader of both Houses.

As for the minor and insignificant positions, SS and SE can have Chief Whip and the deputies and and also Deputy Majority Leaders of both Houses.

This is politics of hate oh!

Edo in SS is apc, if you guys treat those how kept faith with the party like that, then expect protest vote in 2023, just as edo south did this year, APC may very well lose edo north.

Everybody should be carried along, se shoud have dsp or deputy speaker in the interest of fairness. SS was skimmed out last time from principal offices, it shouldnt be so this year.
