Alexis86:you people are trying to give the impression that white men are better than black people, yet you are a black man |

Iceflox: the question you should ask yourself is, in what area of this life are Africans better than whites? is it the mosquito in our environment? or our poor drainage system? or the wild jungle without any form of fumigation against reptiles? by God's mandate we ought show love to people and replenish our world like white men are doing to their world,But what are we doing? we abandon education and carry religion and tradition as our first priority, abandoning our responsibility here on earth,going to church and be waiting for rapture, thinking God is more interested in church or religion than his creation .. we need change |

paxonel:it is the white man world that need change. a society which encourage girls to be walking naked and there is impunity everywhere, is that not immoral society ? their high rate of immorality is in the increase. our culture and tradition has helped check immorality in our society and you are telling me that they are better than us. |

Iceflox:if they had been teaching you well in your Sunday school and Bible study, you will know that the greatest immorality is corruption and not girls walking naked. by the way, western mode of casual dressing for ladies is never unclothedness |

Proximo73:I think i have distinguished between this. as they applied to reality, God is not interested in religion (church ).what God is interested in is THE CHURCH ,which is people, everybody in Christianity. so, by extention,church buildings and all the ordinances and practices in them are vanity before God, but may be useful to humans |

paxonel:watof club going and going to work isnt it a habit of people's lives too? People are at liberty to do as they please with their time. |

asalimpo:i thought you wanted to correct me, since you have read your Bible well.. lol |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by paxonel(m): 6:36am On Nov 02, 2014 |
asalimpo:that is true, people have liberty to do whatever they like, because i have liberty, i can fetch a 25 litre drum of water from a tap and climb a 3 story building with it, only for me to pour away the water down from the third floor to empty the drum again. does that make sense? if people go to work, atleast their benefit is payment if they go to club, atleast they are catching fun. what do i benefit in church? i have been going without one benefit. instead, it is transport money i am wasting. all i know is that, i believe in Christ and i am saved, i don't need to shout it for the world to hear. let them see it my lifestyle and know. You may benefit from church, people are different 2 Likes |

paxonel:yeh, it is very important to note how it affect the nation as a whole and not just one individual. because, no man is an island, one man sin affects another person who didn't commit the sin, and one man good is benefitial to all |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by Alexis86: 6:57am On Nov 02, 2014 |
paxonel:lol... you are funny o so it is transport money that is your problem? anyway, i like this, the most important thing is that you believe |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by paxonel(m): 7:08am On Nov 02, 2014 |
Alexis86:lol.. i didn't say transport money is my problem, atleast, there should be a benefit for every little money i spend no matter my wealth |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by Alexis86: 7:12am On Nov 02, 2014 |
paxonel:then, giving to the poor is what you should not go into, because if you are looking for benefit there, you will get non |

Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by paxonel(m): 7:46am On Nov 02, 2014 |
Alexis86:exactly! nobody can do without people, that's why we are a nation. i think our interest should be replenishing this nation, rather than replenishing the church and.replenishing pastors pocket. what am i gaining from them? the moral values of the Bible, they are not teaching us. it is African norms which does not conform to ethics they are busy promoting |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by paxonel(m): 8:15am On Nov 02, 2014 |
Iceflox: that's true, churches are doing great job helping the poor, i can testify to TB Joshua and this emmanuel tv team and many more, but we are talking about solving national problem here which is of a greater impact i mean, how much poor people can these churches reach with their limited resources? that is why, preaching the right information from the Bible and Quran remains the only solution to the problem of this nation, because, somehow in the nearest future , a child from the church with right information may end up becoming a Senator. a child from the mosque with the right information may end up becoming the president so far, no pastor in Nigeria is doing a good job in terms of passing the right info from the Bible. it is money they want 2 Likes |

paxonel:you are right! though it is good to give arms, but passing the right information is better and even cheaper, it is more cheaper to talk than to render help to people. when people have the right information, it yelled greater impact. |

paxonel:Christianity is not a religion, do you know that? |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by paxonel(m): 9:09am On Nov 02, 2014 |
Iceflox:that's true to some extent in that, Jesus build people which is THE CHURCH, that one is not religion. But church building and all the ordinances practice inside ,is religion. You can't dispute that fact no matter how hard you try |

paxonel:i still think there African traditional values that should be emulated |
Re: Is Gods Big Picture For This World He Created, To Rapture Man To Heaven? by paxonel(m): 9:50pm On Nov 02, 2014 |
Iceflox: yeah, there are moral values that should be emulated in African traditions..example, in music and dancing, in fashion and design, in relationships, food and commerce etc, But there are other values that are not making the traditions attractive at all, most of which are in the area of traditional governments, laws and customs.. example, the man who is head of the family will want to suppress the opinion of his wife and children,nobody will question him, simply because he is head. this kind of mindset is reflected in Nigerian politics. Government officials will be corrupt and nobody will question them lecturers will slash students scores, nobody will question him pastors will be doing injustice in disguise of the Scripture, touch not my anointed, and nobody dares to challenge them these are the kind of things we should do away with, if this country must move forward 1 Like |

i believe that there should be no sentimental judgment when it comes to issues that deals with religion and our general lives. consider the word WORSHIP, we know that we were created to worship God, and beyond any doubt, you proved that we were created to replenish this earth, i don't know |
