I hope so bros/sis, because I need to get this done right now.

Thanks.

Dear all,

I got married in November 2014 in Nigeria, but am only getting round to changing my name on my Nigerian passport now (Feb 2017). Both my husband and I live in the UK. I've gone to the Nigerian High Commission UK website to see how to change my name to my married name on my passport and seem to be going round in circles! I've been directed to https://portal.immigration.gov.ng/passport/changeDetails, but when trying to select the Processing Country, it only gives you the option of Nigeria. I want to process the application here in UK, but can't see how to do this.

When I could not get round this, I tried applying for a new passport, but that is now asking me for $106. According to http://www.nigeriahc.org.uk/pdf/changeMarriage.pdf and http://www.nigeriahc.org.uk/pdf/epptchonamebymarriagewomenonly.pdf, it should only cost a maximum of £40 for a woman to change to her married name.

If you are/know of any woman who recently (from 2016 or so) changed her surname on her Nigerian passport from the UK, please advise how you did this and how much it cost.

Thank you and God bless you!

Yes, we are living in the latter days, and it has already been told in the Scriptures that many will depart from the faith and follow any sensual doctrine that suits their own desire (see 1 Tim 4:1)

Many thanks for all your responses. It's a bit unfortunate that different parishes do different things. In this day and age it's important to stay consistant in the church; but if the Adeboye's didn't make their stance clear at the beginning, they can hardly start enforcing it now.

Trinity

This is a Fundamental belif in Christian faith as laid down by the Catholic church Bishops during the "council of Nicaea" in 325 AD. Therefore any christian church always follows this dogma and since RCCG and MFM are a denomination of the christian faith they also must belief in ""three persons, one substance" doctrine as passed down from Nicaea, by the Catholic Bishops, up till now!

Hope this helps

Sorry, but it is not compulsory to believe in the "Trinity" to be a Christian, not in the Pentecostal movement anyway. As you said the idea of the Trinity is from Catholic men. The word "trinity" does not appear in the Bible. 1 John 5:7 says of the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit "and these three are one", not "three in one". The difference is subtle, but significant. Oneness Pentecostals believe that the Lord Almighty is One, with three different roles in the New Testament Church: Father (Lord God), Son (Redeemer) and Holy Spirit (Comforter, communicator), but he is one Jesus. Not God in "three persons".

Hiya,

Sorry if this has already been asked. If so, please kindly point me in the right direction and spare me any abuse.

I don't know why, but for some reason I thought that women who go to Redeemed churches do not wear jewellry or make-up, but I recently learnt that Jesus House, Brent, North London is a RCCG chapel. I've been there before and the women wear all sorts.

Also, I attended my grandmother's funeral in Owo earlier this month. She went to a RCCG chapel in her later years and a RCCG choir ministered at her wake-keeping. Most of the girls there did not wear any jewellery, but the young lady leading the worship wore earrings.

Please note, THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS TOPIC IS NOT TO DISCUSS WHETHER CHRISTIAN WOMEN WEARING MAKE-UP OR JEWELLERY IS RIGHT OR WRONG. Anyone wishing to discuss such merits, please feel free to start your own topic. I just want to know what is their dresscode, or does it differ between branches.

Also, does anyone know if either RCCG or MFM believe in the trinity? Or are they "Oneness Pentecostal"?

Much appreciated.

O.
