[quote author=c.fours]by installing an Igbo man as governor of lagos, abuja and president of Nigeria.
by allocating 70% of federal revenues to SE
by creating a welfare state program for igbos
by exterminating all abokis by any means necessary
by cutting off the hands and feet of every "oily Yoruba" in all corners of earth.
by forming biafra (so that igbos will preside over nigeria and biafra at the same time)

this will be the ultimate dream.

remember, igbos are jewish geniuses stuck among backwards black people in africa.
if not for the civil war, biafra will look like sweden or USA by now.[/quote]

copy and paste, u gave me dis response even wen it didnt belong to me.

[quote author=baby_123]This has to be the most ignorant thread on NL. Like did I just read this? OP you need an urgent intervention and deliverance if you believe this. Self hatred is the worst. [/quote]dis isnt abt ignorance or self hatred, he made d thread becos of obadiah who claim, d black men of africa are d isrealites of d bible, (dis was made as a slipt of obadiahs thread) d passage used by d op is obadiah's classics defence, even a dumb bible student will acknowledge dat in d above passage "black of skin" had with it serious suffering. This is an arguement in progress, i dnt see why u are geting emotional.

obadiah777: AND I THOUGHT YOU WERE ONE OF THE ENLIGHTENED ONLY BROWN PEOPLE TURN DARKER BLACK IN TIMES OF TROUBLE. WHITE OR CHINESE OR ARABS TURN PALER OR RED.

intarastingly, i never said anything to warrant this.

FXKing2012: Man was originally created in the colour of the Israelites, not black as erroneously propagated by some. When reading the Bible pray for wisdom then try reading it in context otherwise...

Now, man turned black only when in mourning, pain, affliction, being tortured or being punished by God. The following verses prove it:

Song of Solomon 1:6
6 Look not upon me, because I am
black, because the sun hath looked
upon me: my mother's children were
angry with me; they made me the
keeper of the vineyards; but mine
own vineyard have I not kept.

Lamentation 5:10
10 Our skin was black like an oven
because of the terrible famine.

Lamentation 4:8
Their visage is blacker than a coal;
they are not known in the streets:
their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is
withered, it is become like a stick.

Jeremiah 14:2
2 Judah mourns, and the gates
thereof languish; they are black to the
ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is
gone up.

Job 30:30-31
30 My skin is black upon me, and my
bones are burned with heat.
31 My harp also is turned to
mourning, and my flute into the voice
of them that weep.

The following verses show that man was originally created in the colour of the Israelites:

JEREMIAH 10: 16 - The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: The LORD of hosts is his name.

EXODUS 4: 22 - Israel is my son, even my firstborn

Reading the verses in context or reading the entire chapters from where the quoted verses were lifted will further reveal to you that man turned black only as a result of affliction, pain, suffering, mourning or punishment by God.

So please do away with the lie and misinformation that man was created black or that Jesus was black - that is simply not true.

good one, suprised to see a new thread for it. D black man tin is obadiah's baby, i dnt really knw why he likes d stuff. But i doubt this will move him.

Ishilove: You be school teacher?

no! I used "keep d kids in line" like an idom. No offense to teacher but i dont think i will b able to handle kids.

truthislight: how old are you?
2000yrs? Or 30yrs? Which is closer to you age range?
Is it that you just have a big mouth?
I wonder for your back ground my friend.
You seem to be well equip for damage.

i dont undastand how come d bolded! But i'll answer ur question, im not 2000yrs old, i'm less than a century.
As for d oda part, my lawyer friends will say "according to d evidence b4 me...", i dont need to be 2000yrs old to know history. I've read enuf xtian materials to know dat many earlier xtians never heard of "nor d son" in matthew and dose wu translated never saw "nor d son" either. We are humans, we have brains, we gat to use dem. My background is fine! Thanks for ur concern and i do not wish to damage anything except dat which isnt true.
Thanks.

truthislight: ^^



you will do well in politics.

it isnt politics, it's just using ur head. I also knew ur question was a trap question. And hey, i have good political ideas but nah, no politics 4 me.

obadiah777: LOL @ WEWE. DUNNO WHAT THAT MEANS

ur own special blend, marijuana.

frosbel: we agree for once , lol

hmm...i think we agree most times, Similar intent i.e to show odas a truth/d truth, we just hardly agree on what that truth is. At least, it is great to see we agree on something.

Ur idea just falls flat down on its stomach

Neddivine: Martinseme:even to date the land of israel is well known to cultivate a fine grade of grape which is pressed in vine to produce non alcoholic drinks or wine.

u mean grape juice, in those day there was no preservative so it was impossible to produce such juice dat could last more dan a day. D juice is instead fermented into wine. And it is alcoholic. That is what was drank then.

This is the simple point I try to make when so many unstable christians keep claiming that Jesus manufactured Alcohol at Cana & paul commanded timothy to drink beer for his stomach infirmity.I dread this Pastor Kun & Frosbel among many.Their ideology often agrees with that of this advocate666 & the likes.They seem to promote xtianity with some good threads but again with the other hand drag and destroy xtian virtues with contrary posts on important xtian subjects draging lots of unstable souls with them.Such read the bible with physical intelligence but neglect that the things of God are only spiritually discerned.If u don't seek understanding of spiritual matters with much prayers,fasts,purity & deep humility of soul overtime, God will hardly teach u.Such people will then seek it with only dictionary & bible encyclopedia & their elated Phd degrees and post threads with carnal intelligence to dispute xtian virtures that are well known & observed by heaven minded Godly xtians since church history.

d above is a bundle of accusation against people who simply corrected your mistake. Im very suprised u mention church history, u arguement so far shows u are ignorant of it. D idea of total abstainence from alcohol started with d baptist b4 dem no xtian advocated such. Xtians drank wine, even d monks, i remember d rule of st benedict written around 300AD-400AD allow each monk to drink abt half bottle of wine per day. So if u are talking of history, keep it down. Scripture never forbids drinking, it only forbids d abuse of drinks.
Abstainence (fasting) from alcohol, may be a personal decision for you, but it isn't a xtian virtue, it is a discipline, most ideal for drunkards. To impose ur discipline on other is just an attempt to insult their liberty as xtians.

musKeeto: Lol, u know the meaning of Ube in Igbo, right?

it is a small fruit locally called "pear". It seems i must begin to discourage pipo from shortening my username to ube.

obadiah777: MY BROTHER UBE I TROWAY SALUTE SIR. HOW DEY GO DEY GO BROS ? BROS I HAVE BEEN ON FRONTPAGE. I HAVE BEEN BATTLING THE BELLIGERENT HEATHENS ON THE FRONT PAGE

hahaha, i dey wella, d go dey go well, u just resume nl a week ago, i was suprised i for some weeks u brand of wewe was missing.

Zamizoni: This was among the announcements that's the pastor read out last year December. And last week Sunday he repeated it again that every member should bring there FIRST FRUIT (FIRST SALARY OR BUSINESS EARNINGS) to church in January

He and even talked about someone who came to partially complain that he will not be able to bring ALL HIS JANUARY SALARY to the Church, that how will he and his family survive Pastor said he must have faith.
My question is is this practice BIBLICAL and is it FEASIBLE IN OUT TIME

it's ironic, as i write, d church close to my residence just finish preaching abt first fruit. U must pay if u want blessins say d pastor.

Joagbaje: The church has structure. Spiritually and in leadership. Two or three people gathering does not constitute a local assembly. Family prayer is still christian fellowship, colleague meeting at lunch hour in the office is still christian fellowship but it doesn't constitute a local church.

intarasting, but i'd rather sit and watch.

Zikkyy: I wonder where this theory is from. You think every other person is a drunkard like you?

hahaha, dis is funny, though i hardly taste beer -i prefer wine- when i do i certainly know wen to stop. Thank God i've never been drunk.

Neddivine: advocate666: John 2:1-11
2 On the third day a wedding tookplace at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, 2 and Jesus andhis disciples had also been invitedto the wedding. 3 When the winewas gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”
4 “Woman,[a] why do you involveme?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”
5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.[b]
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filledthem to the brim.
8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the masterof the banquet.”
They did so, 9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He didnot realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10and said, “Everyone brings out thechoice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”
11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

666 has already answered you.That should easily teach the wise the answer to the question.Satan can quote the bible as long as he twists it to accomplish his evil purpose.This happened during Jesus 40 days fast.There is a difference between alcoholic wine & non-alcoholic wine(0%).Go to the wine store.The holy spirit can never manufacture or offer anyone Alcoholic wine.Impossible!!

hahaha, 2000yrs ago there was nothing like non alcoholic wine. Wine 4 d jew is very alcoholic, "the fruit of d vine", d most beautiful wine i know.

seno408: Few days ago I had an arguement with my colleages about taking alcohol. Plz guys I want to know if taking alcohol is a sin.(Bible reference).

taking alcohol is not a sin, abusing alcohol is a sin. Just like eating is not a sin, abusing food is a sin

obadiah777: ANY STRONG BIBLE SCHOLARS CARE TO EXPLAIN THIS ?

obadiah is back, oga weytin happen, where u hide put?

obadiah777: STRONG BIBLE SCHOLARS ? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN ?

it seems u have been thinking abt dis 4 some time now, i remember dis issue was raised last year, dat time u seem to interprete d passage, im totally suprised to see this thread in question form.

advocate666: Words of encouragement have never put food on anyone's table.

weytin b ur own na?

Neddivine: Chygirl, I just want to assume u're for real even though I see such requests faked too often these days.I deeply sympathize with you but I'm not happy that all u seem to see as the end option is to end up in a man's bed.Girl ur type should be far stronger than that.I've seen ladies approach me several times by the wayside & ask desperately for help almost at any cost.I often asked myself why don't they approach women knowing fully well men will exploit them and take them home.

My little suggestions if u are strong & determined to keep urself from defilement: 1.For accomodation:Why not try some God fearing church branches like deeper life,The Lords Chosen,Watchman,MFM etc.They should have members they can offer to assist u if u can prove u're true.But covenant strongly with urself never to agree with accomodation offer from a single man,single pastor or christian brother because u'll easily get that.if u don't allow discouragement from negatve responses u'll certainly get help before u approach up to 10 branches.
1.To raise cash: Since it tells clearly u are smart in English & expressions & u have whatever little access to internet why not search Nairaland business section.There are many online internet biz that u can start with N1000 or less and earn residually.And with the phone in ur hand u can start a call centre while waiting for bigger things (do not despise small begginings.)
I'll offer more suggestions if I find any but I know its certain u can defeat this challenge without soiling ur integrity if u are patient.God is watching,demons are watching.Who will u cheer.Remember jobs story.He purposed never to sin against God.

a million likes

plappville: Op dont blame Him, it happens that recently, there have been several thread created. It seems because the first persons that succeed have now tell others thier stories. So the cry is becoming frequent. But this does not means there are not true cases. What you need now is not finance but a place to put up and a job. People living in Lagos would be of a better chance to help if possible. I pray God send some if truely He sees ur case as one that deserves Help.

amen.

[quote author=tpia@]there's an app for everything.[/quote]it is called technology.

Pastor AIO: I get you. But the point is that it does not exist in some manuscripts. How did it not exist in those manuscripts? I will concede that I was wrong in laying the fault on the translators of the KJV. Yet at some point omission were made in biblical manuscripts. Things were added etc. There can only be 2 possibilities. 1) that a genuine mistake of transcribing was made. and 2) that it was done intentional (ie to serve an agenda).

d third arguement is dat matthew himself omitted "nor d son" and some latter scribes added it is some manuscript in an effort to correct matthew.
I have read many early xtians quote matthew without 'nor d son' while mark has it. Jerome's manuscripts didnt have 'nor d son', d older latin translation b4 jerome's vulgate didnt have it either. It wasnt removed, it just wasnt there to b translated.

truthislight: but i had supposed the kingjames V is perfect being the oldest translation, No?
How? why?

sorry, i'm not a kjv fan, i use its text, along with many odas even d ones whose translations scares me! I once had a copy of d new word traslation. Many older translations i must confess are better dan d new ones. I'm not tagging anything as "perfect".

Boomark: ^^And my beautiful answer is: catholics are venerating idol. They do things similar to this.

your delusion is great! "venerating idol", really funny.

Logicboy03: I always apologise when I'm wrong because I care about the facts!

hmm, logic boy's good side. Quick to speak, quick to apologise.

frosbel: I used to speak in tongues with my wife a while back, in fact , the more I prayed in tongues, the more my life seemed to turn upside down, appeared I was or might have been cursing myself.

My Dad told me a story many years ago about a MAN who was well versed in the occult , he attended a church in South Africa and was shell shocked when he heard them speak in tongues, because , rather than pray to GOD and praise him, these tongues were actually worshiping SATAN.

In the bible, the tongues that the apostles and others spoke in where languages, I am not sure we are to speak in a language that we cannot understand, it makes absolutely no sense except there is someone who can understand and interpret.

"Cretans and Arabs-- we hear them in our own tongues speaking of the mighty deeds of God." - Acts 2:11

wow! Frosbel doing some soul sharing! hope all is well? "turn-upside-down" tongues, interesting.

Ishilove: .
