[quote author=vannessa7 post=124580346]God is almost becoming a four letter word in some people's heart, what is there to defend in idolatory. When the Almighty God (Allah) (SWA) say who is on the Lord's side, Muslims always step forward. All those supporting the idolatory in Ilorin should go and do same in Kano.

Surprisingly the igbos who are christians and are privy to all that happened at Mt. Camel between Elijah and prophets of Baal are the one championing support for idolatory in Yoruba land and it's just one of their divisive tactics, they are so ungodly that it will be easier to find a needle in a haystack than to find an igbo man in heaven, they can't resist hatred and destruction of others no matter how Godly they claim.
Idolatory is the sole reason why the Yoruba race is not at par with the developed world because we are so blessed. Idolatory will enslave the coming generations and destroy them unless they keep worshipping the idols unlike God who is patient and loving even to unbelievers in Him, idols enslave even if the people that worshipped them died 400 years ago, the new generation who are educated and know nothing about idol will now be in bondage, and only Islam can break the stronghold of idol permanently, idols don't have a heaven to take it's worshippers to, they will all end up in hell with their master the devil. Islam cannot tolerate idolatory. [/quopte]

Thanks for airing your opinion.
Islam, Judaism, Christianity, traditionalists and some other religions believe in supreme being who made the whole Heaven and Earth. There is no dispute about that.

All mankind are curious to know about their existence and what will become of them after death, this poise the reasons for searching for God.

A servant of God by the name Apostle Paul went to Athens to envagenlize, he saw the Athenians Alter with an inscription on it, "to an unknown god".

These people worshipped many gods and even believe that there is an unknown god who is all powerful.

When Apostle Paul saw this inscription; he laid emphasis on it as a lauching pad to commence his preaching about the true God. The moment he got to the point about resurrection of the dead, they all bluffed and they said, " we will hear you about this subject some other times". Though some believed in the gospel and were saved.

What point am I trying to make? There is no compulsion in religion says the Quran.
People who are blind to the truth about God's way only need to be guided by the truth (God's word) so that their paths will be redirected.

It's not by coercion, intimidation and threatening.
Your subject about Elijah killing the Prophets of Baal is a true biblical story.
He was wrongly zealous for God.

God didn't send him to do such.
Sometimes, he called down fire to burn people up.

This is reason why Jesus says, those that came before me are thieves and robbers.
Jesus didn't rob anyone of his/her life before he won people's heart to the side of the Father.

He(Jesus) came to make everything new.
Yeah! Jesus is alive, though He died to take away the sins of the whole world.
Peace be unto you.

Just learning bro. Video editing.

Adewale1603:
sun drying it alone can't solve the issue. Don't try to connect the charger or power the laptop on to avoid short-circuit. You've to take it to the engineer, and they have to check and inspect for possible water corrosion or damage and clean your motherboard with chemicals and general servicing,

Thanks bro. But immediately the incident happened, the charger was plugged with d laptop. I quickly removed it then clean the surface and inserted the battery back and it didn't power on.

I spoke with engineer I bought it from, he said I shouldn't have put the battery back and the charger might have complicated the issue.

He told me to sundry it and insert the battery before powering it on but I am afraid to do that right now cos the intensity of sun wasn't High today.

Thanks for your candid advise.
I will hold on till I get an engineer b4 I can try it out.

I am just trusting God for finance.
It really breaks my heart cos I was learning seriously this week on it.

Thanks so much sir for the advise.

People should ask themselves, who instituted marriage?
What's the purpose of two people coming together?
Most electronic devices come with operating and maintenance manual from the manufacturer.

If the operating manual is missing, then abuse of the device is inevitable.

Many People who entered into marriage did not consult the author of marriage before delving into it.

Some who consulted the author of marriage but failed to follow the operating manual given to them will find their marriages at the vanishing point.

It is God; author of all things that can uphold marriage.

Kukutenla:

I disagree sir. Though I agree church doctrine should be scriptural, not all church doctrine is based on the bible and that doesn't make them bad. For example, a certain denomination once said the TV was the "devil's box" and with good reason too. That's nowhere in the bible and the interesting thing is around the same time the head of that church propounded that doctrine in furtherance of their quest for holiness, an evangelist in the US by the name of Billy Graham was using the TV to start a revival. The point I'm making here is the obvious conflict in doctrine, which still exists in different churches even to today. Some churches believe it's wrong for a woman to enter the church with her hair uncovered, while others do not.
In this particular matter, I've taken note of the Op's claim that his grouse is with attendance and financial targets, which I still find disagreeable because attendance and financial growth is one of the duties of a pastor. However, a lot of comments have even stretched it to claim Christ gave no such target just as you are doing. That's not true. Christ gave a target; the whole earth. If his managers on earth decide the best is to use financial and attendance target as a means of measuring growth, I see nothing wrong with it.

A
At the bolded;
Sir, your last paragraph talks about employing the method of how earthly managers set targets to achieve their aim, this is not right sir.

This is the way of telling the Holy Spirit to take the back seat and one should allow himself to use his own wisdom in running the Church.
There should be ordinances guilding how Church should be run and this is where the Holy Spirit comes in.

Sir, remember the time of Moses leading God's people in the wilderness.
We can say this is similitude to a type of Church. Every Ordinances concerning worship, personal hygiene, marriage, christening, sacrifices, priestly ordination etc are given to him by God. Infact,Moses dare not count the Lord's people except through the command of the Most High God.

Same with our Lord Jesus who died for us. He says, he doesn't do anything of his own, what he sees the father doing, that is what he does. Same also goes for other apostles, every steps are guided with the Help of Holy Spirit.

Holy Spirit is a personality who is overseeing the Church of God. He is so real and instruct both the leaders of the Church of Christ and the followers on anything to do concerning church doctrines and ordinances. Most of what Holy Spirit tells the Church are grounded in the Scripture.

Many a times, He direct us to a portion of Scripture for clarity and also speaks loudly in our hearts.
Sometimes, he passed message to us through visions, dreams and trance.
As regards to the target that you said that Jesus says we should preach to the whole world, you should ask, how did he say we should go about it?

He says, " if I am lifted up, I will draw all men to myself".
If He is the one drawing all men to himself; he is the one that knows the numbers of convert that will be joining the Church everyday, week, months and yearly not we human being setting a target of what the numbers of worshipers must be either weekly, monthly, and yearly.

Holy Spirit populates the Church as we live in obedience to Christ to preach the gospel.
We Christians should follow Holy Spirit on His leading not using earthly knowledge or our human knowledge. Our human knowledge is limited and liable for many flaws but that of Holy Spirit is perfect and flawless.

Kukutenla:

Sorry Sir, are you a Christian? Even a baby Christian knows paying tithes and offerings is a responsibility for every member. If you have 20 members and they pay 1000 each as tithes. If God adds 5 members to the church and those 5 pay 500 each. Has the church finances improved or not?
Can you quote the scripture you're referring to that negates above.
As I have pointed out, the op is very wrong. The issue of setting target is doctrinal and I don't see how he's in a position to be judging a church's doctrine based on his personal standards.

Church doctrine should be scripturally based.
Would you pls point to us how targets were set in the Scripture?
The book of act reveals much more about emergence of Church after Pentecost, the Church grew in numbers and in power.

Holy Spirit grows the Church not through human wisdom or worldly wisdom
If you have the scriptural backup for Church setting a target either for souls won for Christ or for remittance then I will agree with you.

Even, as book of mark 16:15 says we should go into all the world and preach Christ; scripture does not say we should preach denomination.
It is the work of the Holy Spirit to convert and guide the new convert to a place of worship.
Even if we do recommend a place of worship to them, we must be careful not to mislead them.
Setting target in the Church is not a Bible doctrine sir.

Nyne:


I responded to you on WhatsApp but you never replied.

Sir, really?
I was waiting to get ur Watsap contact and add u up.
But I didn't give you my Watsap contact sir.
I will check and get back to you sir.
Let me know what ends ur Watsap contact so that I can search.

It's not too late to retrace your step.

Jesus says, " come unto me all you that are wearied and heavy laden and I will give you rest".

True rest comes from God Almighty.
You are in bondage to sin but Christ has paid for all your sins. Not only you, but also all people that are neck deep in their sins. Jesus will give you rest only if you can give your life to him.
Jesus loves you. Even while you are still a sinner, he died for your sins.

Repent today and give your life to him and it shall be well with you bro.

Westerhoffe:


I've had dreams/revelations of Heaven and Hell, but not when I had those death experiences.

At your leisure time, do well to share the revelation of heaven and hell with me.
Also, your near-death experience.

Infact, God may be using you to save some lost souls.
It amazes me when I read comments here on nairaland that people grow old and die just like an animal without giving account of how they spend their lives here on Earth.

Many of them with business empires hire all kinds of professionals for their businesses and they give them report of how the business is being run.

How much more of we humans made by God Almighty.
Pls share your experience bro!
Make it public, you may be helping few people to have a rethink.

Westerhoffe:

See how that little girl's head was emptied!
Why are some people this heartless and wicked?

All the killed would struggle to wake up, struggle to open their eyes, the intense desperation to move any part of their body!
The intense feeling of wishing someone would shake them rigorously so that they can wake up!
That extreme feeling of fear of, "What's happening? Why can't I move my body?
Why can't I wake up?

I know these feelings… because I've experienced it thrice!

Just stop killing people because you don't know what you're putting them through!!!

Hola bro! Do well to share your near-death experience.
How does it look like when life is out of one's body?
Do you mean you were clinically dead and brought back to life?
Pls, share ur experience with me.
Any flashes images of a peaceful place called heaven or a creepy place called Hell?
Thanks bro. I await your response sir.

I think the hardest part about my job is that the remuneration is not commensurate with the high demands of the profession... You're expected to always look neat and elegant as a lawyer but you're paid 30k per month fresh out of law school.

Are joking that fresh graduate of Law School gets 30k per Month?
I don't expect such pay for that Noble profession.

That's not true bro. He studied Chemical Engineering at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, at Ogbomoso, Oyo State.
I don't know what he studied at PhD level.

oluwaseyi0:
I didn't give my life to any christ because I see no need to do so

I'm not a criminal so their no crime to be forgiven

Oluwaseyi, you are not understanding something from the post.
There is a need for you to surrender your life to Jesus.

You may say you are a good and morally upright fellow but this doesn't change the fact that you are born a sinner.

Just listened to David when he said in the book of psalm 51: 5 :- Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.

Romans 3:23 :- for ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

We are all children of Adam and we inherited our sinful natures from him.
No man can say is with out sin.
Reason why Jesus asked people to cast their stones to the adulterous woman if they haven't committed sin.
They all left their stones and left the place.
Jesus told the woman caught in adultery; "has anyone condemned you? Neither do I condemn you too".

My friend God is not counting your sin against you any more because he has paid for ALL your sins through the angonizing death of our Lord Jesus Christ on the cross.
First Corinthians 5: 19:- that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them.
Jesus loves you my brother. He is not counting your sins against you anymore because He has paid for your sins.
All you need to do is repent of all your sins and give your life to him.

May God's peace be with you.
