2, "Do not judge, or you too will be judged"
Matthew 7:1 (NIV).

Some people misinterpret this verse to mean: people shouldn't say the truth when they see them,
especially where it involves "men of God"
or that people shouldn't condemn someone's action when he did something wrong.

Jesus Christ, while on earth always condemns evil when he sees one, and commends good when he sees one,
so therefor, this verse is not talking about that, instead it advices us to acknowledge God as our supreme judge! He alone have the final say on who is right and who is wrong.

here is the full message:

verse 2: For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the same measure you use, it will be measured to you.

Romans 14:

1 Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters.

2 One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is anything weak, eats only vegetables.

3 The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them.

5 One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.

john 7:24
"Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly"

In many occasions, we have come across people trying to justify their actions (sometimes evil) quoting bible verses out of context.

Here are some of the verses some people misinterpret often:

1, Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s."
Matthew 22:21 (NIV)

They quote this verse without knowing what it really means,
here is the full passage:

Matthew 22:
17, Tell us then, what is your opinion? Is it right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not?"

18, But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, "You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me?

21, "Caesar’s," they replied. Then he said to them, "So give back to Caesar what to them, and to God what is God’s.

Conclusion:
these verses didn't tell us to worship both God and Satan! as some thought.

It stated instead that we should obey those in power (caesar/ emperor) by obeying the law of the land ( paying taxes inclusive)

thanks for your correction, but I can't modify it again!

bamog:
ajimobi of oyo state iz d best while amosun of ogun iz d worst!!! #1st to comment

what are your reasons for choosing ajimobi and amosun as the best and worst performing governors respectively

kestolove95:
Fayose.....he has spent all his tym on buhari forgtin all his electoral promises.....both his budget and capital projects are "BUHARI"

are you saying that other governors don't spend money and time in campaigning

try to present your opinion with reason

we often spends more time taking of the best performing governor in S/east, but we over look other regions.

now lets move west a bit,
the best performing governor in south west goes to Babatunde fashola while the worst is Rauf Aregbeshola of osun state.
My Opinion though, lets here yours...

themilanway:
1)Fayose or PDP havent come forward to refute/deny the claim.Atleast,PDP distanced theirself from the N15 million naira death wish Advert by Fayose.Again,Fayose had to fly to Abuja just to discredit the claim that Buhari never had an interview in London,but rather in Abuja.Is that still propanganda to you?

2)When people like OBJ talk,they do so authoritatively.You can only do two things when they speak,challenge him or keep quiet.

In any case,GEJ/PDP chose the latter option,which can only suggest something in that regards is in the offing.

Does that also look like propanganda to you?

I want to believe you are not as daft as this.

now I understand that you are a novice in political discuss!!!
first: for you to have believed that fayose is monitoring buhari confirms that what fayose is saying about buhari is the truth after all!
secondly: you are living in moon for you to be unaware that Gej replied Obj on the accusation,

finally: I always try to avoid abusive language in my discuss!

themilanway:
I would have disregard this news as i have never been a fan of propanganda politics,but with Fayose paying people to stalk Buhari in far away London and OBJ accusing GEJ of training snipers,i will take this news very serious.

An African proverb says"A toad does not run for nothing in the day light".

you ended up contradicting yourself!
"I have never been a fan of propaganda politics" you said, in other words, you have never believed in "propaganda politics"
but you believed in "propaganda politics" of APC accusing fayose of paying people to stalk buhari in far away London.
you also believed in "propaganda politics" of Obj accusing Jonathan of training snipers.

now give me a good reason why I will not call you a lier

in every rumour there is an atom of truth,

Nigerians are wiser now!

Never again will an old dictator rule us!

Never again will someone enter power through the back door!

meanwhile Gej till 2019!
