I just deleted comments from and blocked a person on my facebook profile who attempted to draw me into a useless debate. Debates, especially on fb or like medium is utterly foolish and a waste of time. I may be passionate about Yeshua and Natsari Judaism and Ndi Igbo but that does not mean I will debate about it, for all I wish to say or needs to be said is on my websites and in my books. Let a person come and research and decide for themselves about these matters. Also, I have a busy life outside of the ministry and my passions and therefore do not have hours to wastes in foolish online debates. Being a Husband and a Father with a job on top of being a Minister leaves me with little time to waste and I refuse to be a poor steward of HIS time. Besides two people who are set in there opinions and beliefs get nowhere and change no ones mind, no one wins, and the debate becomes and endless diatribe where nothing is built up but negativity.
