]"And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and show John again those things which you do hear and see: The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me"[/i] (Matthew 11:3-6).

OLAADEGBU:


Thank God that Nigerian is known for large churches. Great Britain was and is still known for their cathedrals. To become a city in the UK it must have a cathedral.

OLAADEGBU:


In this ministry the blind see, the lame walks, the deaf/dumb speaks and hears, the barren give birth, souls are set free and most importantly souls are convinced, convicted, converted, consecrated and commissioned. Others can speak for themselves.

Haoqi24:


Na your blind uncle regain him sight? Or your dumb brother? Or was it your crippled father that walked?

Deicide:

Didn't You hear he Said "In the Ministry" ?.....why don't He come out and Go to hospitals and heal the Sick and then Hospital Empty? At least we would all hear the news but of course it's "in the ministry" where everything can be staged and using of Hormones against people..

Haoqi24:


For real though, it's always "In the Ministry" never on the streets, hospitals

Sinkills:
In the days of Jesus in earth, the sick people came to Him believing He could heal them and they were not disappointed. Let's now be practical. Do you know anyone who is mad, lame, paralyzed, deaf, dumb, blind, suffering cancer, with hunchback, deformity or any 'incurable disease'? The Deeper Life National December Retreat 2016 is around the corner from 23rd to 26th December, 2016. Bring such people and God will heal them all to prove to you that miracles are real. God bless you as you do so.

Jesuobu:
I love this church, I'm an admirer of this church's general overseer but I'm never in support of mega extravagant structures as church buildings. It may surprise you too, I'm actually a member of the church but truth be told, spending too much money on church structures is not really Christ like.

Hanaway:
I wonder why people are spending large amounts of money on erecting church structures that wouldn't be of any help to the society and people around. These churches take from the people without giving back, even going ahead to beat the tax collector at his own game, and in turn, cause noise pollution, offer false hope and breed hatred among citizens.

Wouldn't it be wise if these funds are instead utilised in building hospitals, schools, constructing good roads e.t.c whose benefits are visible to all? Sigh.

Jesus also said..

Mar 10:21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven and come, take up the cross, and follow me.

Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

That's nothing compared to the massive income they derive from the masses at the end of every week.

Perharps the construction of that bridge is merely a means to get to a greater goal. E.g. So that the church can easily be accessed by prospective investors (church enthusiasts).

Hanaway:
When I was a kid, I was taught about God, the heavenlies, following his commandments, living a christian or moral life, the bible was read to me, and I was instructed on how to live according to its teachings in church services. I was told the bible was the only authority that held absolute truth, and that the fate of all rest on its pages. Everything was just so perfect.

However as I aged, and witnessed growth and development in all aspects of life, including an advanced reasoning, the world suddenly began to change and I saw things in a new light. My curiosity grew, heightened. I began to ask questions, seeking to know.

I questioned my religious beliefs, and found out that it was greatly flawed after subjecting it to thorough appraisal and logic. For example, the bible claimed God is omniscient, yet he still went ahead to create man, an action he later regretted. Could we now say he was thoughtless? Or he was hoping his 'premonition' would pan out the opposite? But sure, he knows the future. He's all supreme. What he says always happen the way he says it will, because he has the power to make sure of it. And then I thought, "Since God's predictions are always certain, is our world not just a big Movie, the guys behind the scenes laughing at us, our struggles to change things?"

And this same bible also points out the _stupidity in engaging in worthless ventures with no possibilty of bringing yields. God knew this, but refused to heed his own words. Seems he doesn't follow the words he inspired his prophets to write. Hence, the bible is flawed. And this defeats the purpose it seeks to bring to its adherents.

But still, I'm still searching....

Revelation 2:4-5King James Version (KJV)

4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

engineerboat:


I know your type.



There is no need argue with you. But i have this for you



Job 11:7-9 (KJV)

7 Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?

8 It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?

9 The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

Are you saying roads, schools and hospitals are used by only poor people??

I have read the text but it does not make any sense with respect to the discourse.
