Floyd Mayweather, who defeated Manny Pacquiao Saturday night in their welterweight title bout, reacted when asked during his post-fight press conference if he had been invited by the Filipino professional boxer to Bible study and whether he'd be willing to take it up.

Pacquiao had said "thank you" to Mayweather at the end of the staredown.

Pacquiao also thanked God before the flight. "Everything I have accomplished, God has given me this strength," Pacquiao told reporters at a pre-fight press conference, according to The Telegraph. "I used to sleep in the street, hungry, and I cannot imagine that the Lord raised me to this level of life."

Pacquiao fought while his right shoulder had been injured during training, and his request to take an anti-inflammatory shot in his dressing room before the fight had been denied.

Pacquiao felt he had won the fight, as some of his left hands seemed to shake Mayweather. "I thought I won the fight. He didn't do nothing except move outside," Pacquiao was quoted as saying. "I got him many times."

Pacquiao recently recounted in a media interview how his life changed after he heard the voice of God and saw two angels, and has said he wants the world to know "there is only one way of salvation, only through Jesus Christ."

Pacquiao, the 14th highest paid athlete in the world as of 2013 according to Forbes, had earlier said he doesn't take credit for his devotion to God. "I'm really thankful that God has given me this kind of a heart."

Tragic Times

The present state of the Church today is a result of the failure of the body of Christ to address the need of the Church. Nobody is standing up to fill the gap left left by the Fathers and so the people suffer, and the nations as well, because the position of elder is now occupied by spiritual adult-Babies.

Nobody wants to pay the price to obtain what the Fathers had, nobody wants to make the sacrifices, everyone is now comfortable with just the assurance of salvation - if any.
The dispensation of men like Pa Babalola, Arch-bishop Benson Idahosa and the likes of them, the dispensation of men who found and carried GOD in places of deep consecration, is now gone and nearly forgotten and what we now see is a generation of Christians who love to eat and drink, while the house of the Father lies in ruins, and as a result of the lack of the manifestation of the Genuine, there is an abundant overflow of the counterfeit.

Why point fingers at that "fake" man of God? Why point out the erroneous teaching of a charlatan? Why accuse? Why analyse? The Problem is ME! The problem is You!! If you had manifested in the fullest capacity of your calling and destiny, there would not be any room for those ones - because light shines in darkness, and darkness comprehendeth it not. The darkness befalling the body of Christ today is as a result of the obvious absence of light.
I'm deeply concerned and sincerely afraid of what the body of Christ will become when it is passed down to this coming generation of Christians - who don't even know the first thing about the Fear of God! The fathers today are leagues ahead and there is none close behind. Where have all the praying women gone? The ones that through faith, received their Children back to life? Where is the day of His power?! Where is even the hunger for His presence?
"Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do you see it now? Is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?" - Haggai 2:3

The reason we're still very excited about the moves of power in the church buildings and little little miracles and mercy drops here and there, is because we be young and very naive! It's because we did not see the days of the showers!!! Any true elder in the church, any true elder you meet, you will notice that he/she is not moved by all the acrobatics going on today, but is sad for the gross deficiency of His presence and power today.
The altar of the Most High God! Jehovah Himself!! is now a performance stage for secular music and dance routines in some places...and sane Christians will say: "You talk too much! What is wrong with this song now?!". . .this is where we are now. Playing with our calling and grace while those who know the gods they worship are re-enforcing everyday. But it is all well.

When Daniel prayed: he didn't point at that fake prophet, or that loose Pastor, or that Divorced Apostle, he came in repentance for the sins of his fathers' and his as well, acknowledging that they had all sinned, knowing that if the Father forgives and visits His people again, he will purge them as with a refiner's fire, taking away all that don't fit in. Only then can the sacrifices of Jacob be acceptable, and the worship of Israel pleasing unto Him.

This is not a call to mindless prayer and ceaseless thought provoking conversations, rather this is a call to repentance and a return to the path of the Fathers. . .to the Old Paths. So that there will be a Christianity to hand over to the coming generation.

I pray that GOD gives every reader of this article understanding of the words therein and give them Grace to stand through His Holy Son Jesus, Amen.

Stop the Amnesty - Emami Ayiri

Warri billionaire and Former Niger Delta militant leader, Chief Ayiri Emami, has called on President-elect Muhammadu Buhari to scrap the ongoing amnesty programme initiated by the late President Umaru Yar’Adua for ex-militants of the Niger Delta.

Emami, now a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State and a former Itsekiri warlord, said on Thursday that Buhari should also probe the operations of the Amnesty Programme.

Warri billionaire and Former Niger Delta militant leader, Chief Ayiri Emami, has called on President-elect Muhammadu Buhari to scrap the ongoing amnesty programme initiated by the late President Umaru Yar’Adua for ex-militants of the Niger Delta.

Emami, now a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State and a former Itsekiri warlord, said on Thursday that Buhari should also probe the operations of the Amnesty Programme.

“If the layman’s understanding of the word amnesty is anything to go by, then it presupposes an arrangement where militants who genuinely turn in all their arms and ammunition are rehabilitated, re-oriented and trained with a view to reintegrating them to everyday societal living."In the ordinary sense of it, any person or group that picks up arms in the name of struggle or agitation ought to have been treated as terrorists, hence nobody or group should take the gesture of the federal government for granted.

“Amnesty should not be continuous; partially giving out money to youths from a particular ethnic nationality is wrong, sending some of them abroad for training without any visible impact on the Niger Delta and the nation at large is counter-productive,” he said.

His declaration was obviously in reaction to a recent call by the Ijaw Youth Council, demanding the continuation of the Amnesty Programme for Niger Delta youths.
