Religion / Re: Nairalander Personal Experience About Tithe by enm(m): 10:14pm On Nov 02, 2014 |
Seriously i don't understand why this tithe is causing much wahala within us. You believe in tithe or not does not mean other should dance to your tune. Yes we are commanded to pay tithe in the old testament which is also the word of God. One tenth of your harvest at the end of the year but we are not in old days again but a era different from then. We are to bring one tenth of it to the house of God so that there will be food in the house of God for the needy. Today your harvest is your income earned and if you like you can pay it at the end of the year or monthly even weekly, that is a personal thing between you and God. And if you decided to carry a bag of rice to church as your tithe no problem and i know God will accept it too. The tithe is to help the need in the church and also towards the spreading of the gospel. In other word the tithe is a financial support system for the house of God to carry out God work. And if you still disagree with me, please let take a look at what Jesus said to the pharisees and the scribe in Mathew 15 vs 1- 9 1 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, 2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. 3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? 4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. 5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; 6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. 7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, 8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. 9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. Read in between the line of what transpired from verse 2 to 6 The word of God in the old testament says honour thy parent and also spelt out a punishment for the offender of this commandment but in the time of Jesus the pharisees and the scribe were encouraging the disobedience of this commandment through tradition. Now let see what Jesus said in verse 5 quoting the amplified bible But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘devoted to God,’ they are not to ‘honor their father or mother’ with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. What am trying to bring out here is that just as honour thy father and mother is an old commandment so also is the commanded to pay tithe. Time has change and our income earned is our harvest. Must we say because God caused Adam that he shall till and toil the ground before he can eat, we should leave office work and other job to go and till the ground before we can eat and bring our harvest to the house of God. Yes Jesus die and pay the price for our freedom from the law but that doesn't mean we have been given the licence to contravene the law. In one of His miraculous work Jesus said go and sin no more. Here is Jesus who have been given the power to forgive and set loose captives from the bondage of sin, saying go and sin no more. I understand why some people are against this tithe, the activities of some so called men and women of God make them to stand against it but they need not worry and leave all to God. But if after reading all this and you are still unconvinced to pay tithe no problem but i need a favour from you. Call the holyspirt to come and visit you and reveal to you the word and position of God on the issue of tithe. The holy spirit is there to comfort us and revealed things to us. After doing that please come and share with us what the holy spirit revealed to you. 3 Likes |

Psalm 138:2 (NKJV) "I will worship toward Your holy temple, and praise Your name for Your lovingkindness and Your truth; for you have magnified Your word above all Your name." @op, in your trial you refused to give up on God by sticking to Jesus as your personal lord and saviour by refusing the eckist suggestion. Your also discovered a secret about God and His word. And the secret is that God honour His words above His name. What you did, is speaking the words of God back to Him concerning your situation and God was move to honour His words. 2 Likes |

sunnshyn: Yes it is possible and also not possible because everything depends on God and servant Vic does not move outside what God through the Holy spirit says or ask him to do. But there is no harm in asking, you never can tell. |

sunnshyn: Don't worry about anointing oil and water, all you need is to build up your faith in God and keep to His way and if the situation arises, you will have your anointing oil and water where you are. I remember a testimony by a Muslim brother at cct, where he was face with a child of his friend or so, the child was sick and it was serious and the parent in despair but in that situation he remember servant Vic and called him and servant told to get water and through phone he pray on the water and the water was filled with the power of God and through that water the power of God manifested and healed and revived the child back and servant Vic advice him to advice the child parent to come for deliverance. So my dear sister, keep praying your prayer and keep calling him on phone for counselling and whenever you have some dreams that trouble you. God hands is not short to reach where you are, so keep to His way and let your faith be strong in the Lord God Almighty, even in the midst of heaven storm let your faith be unshakeable. But try and come down here and be at cct for deliverance and healing service. |

@rupion, you no invite us to come jollificate with you. Sometime internet connection can be a headache but you can minimise the problem by looking for the best network with good data coverage in your area but etisalat service is better than the rest in most location. I pray for more God blessing upon you are your family in Jesus name. Every plan of the enemy to turn your blessing into things of sorrow, pain and agony shall meet with and be destroyed by the destructive fire of the almighty God. The blood of Jesus shall soak every area of your life and your family and shall be a banner over you and your family in Jesus name. I use your testimony and those of others as a point of contact to the divine power and blessing of the almighty God that those of us still waiting and looking onto God for one thing or the other shall received whatever they are looking onto God for and have a cause to come and testify of the goodness of the lord in Jesus name i pray. Note, to those of us on this thread that have not gone for deliverance should try and do so. If CCT is to far for you to be attending locate a MFM church near you and be participating in the prayer programme. Doing deliverance is not enough, don't say i am free now so i can relax and enjoy my lifestyle. No don't do that. After deliverance check that thing you are doing that is not pleasing to God and stop it. Ask for the grace of God to help you stop it. Don't let pressure from friends, relatives, loves one, boyfriend or girlfriend to weighed you down and discourage you from following God principles ( ways ). Even if you are a wife or husband and your relationship is being threatened as results, don't panic take the issue to God in prayer and God will come to your aid and the storm get calmed. And to all the singles in our midst, don't let anybody deceive you that premarital sex is not a sin blah blah blah. It is bad and dangerous. That is one sure way for the enemy to come tormenting again after deliverance, talk to your partner have one on one discussion with them, don't let them use the word God will understand, God is merciful and forgiving. Yes God understand, merciful and forgiving, that's why He ask us to ask for the grace, that's why Jesus said to the disciple after coming down from the mountain where he went to pray that they should pray to God for protection against temptation, and that's also why the holy spirit is among us to comfort us. Pray for your relationship and if it is God will for it to be it will be but if it is not it won't be. Note God never abandon and leave useless those who follow Him in truth and in spirit. I know in this world of ours doing that will be a difficult task to accomplished but with the Grace of God it is very very accomplisheable. Don't rely on your power or might but the grace and power of God. Ask for it and it shall be given you. |

Chiscomax: Cct is a deliverance and healing ministry where the power of God is moving mightily. Cct stand for Christ chosen tarbanacle and it located in sango ota Ogun state Nigeria. It is not for a sale ministry where you will be demanded for money to see or buy something before you can see the servant of God. Also it is not a deliverance and healing ministry where they just pray for you and let you go, here you pray yourself to victory and taught on the hardcore truth of and how to maintained your victory and blessing.

akinsadeez: Bros the case of apc members defecting to pdp is far different from that of pdp members defecting to apc. Tambuwal goof here, because One the pdp is not a divided party Two the pdp is not going into merger Three the pdp is still a party that is alive Now look apc Apc is merger of parties So if am an acn member am not in support of the merger, according to the constitution am free to port to another since the party that sponsored me in the first place is no more "dead" and buried in a merger. Bros tambuwal dey there as speaker of house dey form saint speaker but he refused to use him brain think hard to sort out all rough edges upon say the same issues (pdp members that defect to apc) dey him table. He has the power and means to revise that section but he was busy dancing to masquerade song. 2 Likes |

chilan: Bro I disagree with your opinion though am not happy with the way and manner of pdp approach to this issue but there is nothing one can do because it is what we all (as a result of majority carry the vote) want and be clamouring for. The use of brute force approach, disregarding the stipulated laid down rule to follow. Back to issue, Bros one can not be a speaker of the house without first being a member of the house. The rule says the speaker must be appointed among and from within the entire membership of the house. Tambuwal would have score an A+ if he had honourably resign his position after defecting knowing what the law says concerning defecting from a party that's not in division or merger. Almost four years he was in that place and he didn't occurred to him and his associates to do something about that clause in the law, instead of concentrating their effort on making laws that will benefit all and making sure effective check and balance system was put in place they were busy pointing accusing finger at the executive and ridiculed him every opportunity they get. I keep saying to those who have ears and i will keep hammering it "Jonathan is not the problem of Nigeria, neither is he a bad ruler and neither is he a saint but among them all he is an angel" To solve the problems of this country, we need to check the system currently in place and the first step to that is to thoroughly revise the constitution and who are the people to do " the lawmaker which tambuwal happened to be a or once a member. Vote in buhari tomorrow, the problem will still persist and get worsen. The way things are it will be very hard even for a saint to come out without a blemish. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Religion / Re: Where Else Will I Run To? by enm(m): 9:59pm On Oct 27, 2014 |
lastchild: Bro I don't know what to say to you concerning your situation. You can not go to all this church you mention and your story is still the same. God is not a wicked God and believe me He is ever ready to help you overcome your situation but you must first surrender totally to Him and let go of those things that are repulsive to God. In one of your thread you said that you love your current lifestyle, that holy holy life is not for you. Well the things you can not serve God and be serving mamoh and expect things to flow well for you. Bro God is a righteous and holy God. God Almighty, honour and value His name but there is one thing that He honour and value more than His and that is His words. Psalm 138 verse 2 " I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name." and also read psalm 119. After accepting Jesus Christ as your personal lord and saviour, one has been inducted into the light of God. One is now in light no more in darkness and darkness in this instance represent our life before accepting Christ. To totally be in the light of God and have our paths illuminate we must totally let go of the past, those things we do that are contrary to the will or words of God and don't forget God honour and value His words than His name and devil the master deceiver know this fact very well and it is one way that the devil is using to manipulate the blessing and glory of people. All he need to do is to accuse you before God using God own word. Reading revelation 12 vs 7 - 13 " 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. 13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. " In zachariah 3 is an example where the devil is seen accusing a prophet before God. " 1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? 3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel. 4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment. 5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the Lord stood by. 6 And the angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying, 7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by." and don't forget what devil said about job in the presence of God. Many people blessing are hanging up there despite numerous prayer and fasting and deliverance because the devil has gone before God to accused them. Devil doesn't need big sin to be committed before he rush to God. Things like anger or even insult is enough. A lady was delivered from her problem, she was told to go home and cause no commotion that she should continue treating her enemy with love and care the way she has been doing but she let herself get carried away by emotion and kick the potty of her enemy and that action alone trigger her problem to come back because devil accused her before God. God is not a wicked God but it is we that are responsible for our problem because we give the devil an accusing right over us. God work according to His words, is yea is yea. To seek God favour or to continue be in God favour one must walk according to the word of God. If you are reading this, and have one challenges or the other and will like to go before God just send me a PM 5 Likes 1 Share |

What if you end up unknowingly fall in love with a boko haram child? 2- No it is not a must that everyone that everyone must follow my narrow definition of love, forgiveness and understanding and nobody stand any risk of being judge. But we should remember that verse in our Lord's prayer which goes like this " forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. |

itstpia1: 1- when you let people in action or action determine your life, chances of ending up with a story that touches the heart are very high. Because I was treated bad mean must in turn treat them bad? 2- I never ask that people should pretend that there is no problem but admit and work on it, as per solution that I don't have but I do know they need to start with love, understanding and forgiveness. 3- I don't see how that is judgmental but am very open and willing to learn how?

My intention is to point out that we don't need to let people action or in action determine our life, our happiness and peace of mind. God did not create life to be difficult for us, so why make life difficult for ourselves. My post is simply saying as one of the point am trying to pass is that "don't hold on to grudges no matter how painful and hurt you are because it will be counterproductive though some situation demand keeping your distance but not hate and contempt. |
