₦airaland Forum

ProPastorChris: @2good
Taking charge of his family does not mean bossing his wife around rather it is doing his respomsibility as the man of the house.
As the man. He is the high priest of his family, his duty is to command his family after God. A man that does not know this will find it difficult to lead his family.
He should learn to give alongside his wife, they ought to agree to give together. On the other hand, if the wife is doing these givings so to be noticed then she is in a big trouble cos she will never come out of her debt. The husband should teach the wife the principle of giving that is if he knows threm himself.
This scenario is a perfect example of a man that is spiritually behind the wife.
The mere fact that the so called husband can come on this forum seeking advise is a clear indication that he is not pary of the church; what of your pastor?

@ dekung
Your friend was spiritually illiterate cos the Word does not fail.

ProPastorChris: @ 2good


how can you support coming on a forum like this to discuss such personal issue? dude, can't you see that this guy has been handling his home wrongly?

i believe this is how he goes around discussing his matrimonial problems on every social web site all over the net, such a jelly willed guy

ProPastorChris: @ op
you are a disgrace to the group of people labeled husbands. how are you leading your family while your wife is not following you?
i tend to believe that you only follow your wife to church and not the other way.

sorry to burst your bubble, please take charge of your family and stop inviting others to contribute to what is supposed to be personal matters. i wonder what pushed you to share your family matter with a forum like this?
i can see that you are very weak a husband and your wife must be strong willed as opposed to your jelly will.

wake up bro and take charge of your family.

OmoPastor: @ OP

mr husband, are you sure this you story is true?

i can sense the undertone of dislike or more like it; hatred. you are not telling us the truth but you want us to respond to your frivolous post.

am shocked at how some people in the same camp as you jumped at this bait and started rantling in your favour

anyway, i leave you to your pathetic life, so long bro

yommy2sure: uv gotten more than enuff adivice, just to add mine, i think mechanical do a lot more maths and calculations than the rest, in my sch they do maths courses up to their final years unlike the rest that take maths courses up to 400l, they even do maths courses in their msc....all the best dude

Wemmy6284: I'm 17,In dis previous Jamb dat i wrote i scored an excellent mark,i chose Electrical Engineering as my first preferred course @ OAU, but i still have a strong desire to study Mathematics in d uni because of these reasons....(1) I'm so good in maths dat i score A1 in every maths exams i wrote and i'm considered best in d class nd even among d student in d school to d extent dat my mates in d class usually tell me dat it would be good for me to study maths in d uni..in d recent GCE i did i ave A1 in maths and further maths..I score at least 95% in all maths exams i did..Infact i did not just know it but i understand the concept...I even usually derive formulas independently,for example area of a regular hexagon 3a^2sin60 where a is the length of d side,any one can test it and compare it with normal work it out.<u can never find it in d text book> ,i find the distance between any two places on d earth provided they are on the same latitude but one must be at d south and the other at the north but d one at the north or south wil be at different longitude using the knowlede of mensuration,which i tested using a very long method but the answer is just d same with the derived formula and many more things ...i can 'tackle? any question in pure maths, not to use the word 'solve'<it seems like a gift>,.solving maths becomes my hobby and i do it in my leisure hour....But on the other hand I chose Electrical/Electronic Engnring because i just love engineering field nd with the combination of maths/further maths,,physics,chemistry,geography nd TD which are my best subjects i know i am fit in the field and i like solving peoples problem....SHOULD I go for UME change of course form b4 it closes..But i if not studying maths now i will still go for it after my degree in E.E engineering..

VICAF: Student Proves God’s Existence Scientifically...

buzugee: he aint exactly hiding. his presence is everywhere. who you think brought judgement (hurricane) on haiti ? ( they were worshipping voodoo too much, idols ). who you think brought judgement on louisiana (katrina) ? ( they were worshipping voodoo too much. idols ). those nations are full of israelites and israelites are the only ones paying for their sins in this world because we are the convenant people. however after the second death which will be by fire, all the heathen nations will be the ones paying for their sins because they have had the chance to have the convenant through the bible.

ijawkid: Most times u guys feel that because God is all knowing then he shuld always decide to knw everything

ijawkid: If God knew where we would end up b4 we were born either into destruction or life everlasting and still allowed us exist then that won't be nice of him...
But as I trust my heavenly Father,I know and I believe that he has chosen not to knw about our choices on wether we wuld serve him or not and wether we will be destroyed or enjoy eternal life...

tanimola22: Although I agree with your submission that one shouldn't even dare hope on Total or any other company for that matter, I really don't think Total's recruitment is very disorganized. Those in France have a happier story to tell about Total's recruitment.

Meanwhile, no one I know has a good thing to say about the so called Careers in Africa people. I am beginning to suspect that they just force companies to attend their recruitment summit when in actual sense those companies are not willing to hire anybody.

There are thousands of qualified people looking for these top oil jobs. I have always opined that it is God that gives jobs. My friend got into Total with his third world pangolo BSc . The guy has never entered a plane before, not to talk of going to London, America and all to attend a job fair. His friend, one other guy like that, switched from Shell to Total. The same Shell that graduates, whether naija or abroad trained, can give their legs to work for. These guys have only good things to say about Total.

Just like you, I have learned never to put too much hope in any company. I just try to do my best to appear sound during interviews. If they call me for the next stage, oh fantastic. If they don't, I have plan B, C, D, E,....., Z....1,2,3.....

It is unfortunate that foreign degrees don't carry as much weight as they used to carry in the 90`s and early 2000 in Nigeria. I recall how people strolled into these top oil companies in those times. But now, so many oil and gas Robert Gordon this and that highly qualified graduates roaming the streets of Lagos, PH, Texas, Aberdeen and all. It is pitiable.

May God helep us!

emöfine2: According to certain theological dogma every human being is granted “free-will” by God; the right to make our own choices with no interference or influence.

But when the only available options are limited is it still a free choice or simply a dilemma?

When there is a gift and penalty attached to those narrow options, is that not supposed to influence our decision?

When one is confronted by only two possibilities - eternal subjugation or perpetual torture - where exactly does “free will” feature if one will be condemned for a particular “choice”?

Are we not thus coerced into making a particular decision?

Jenwitemi: That is their genius, isn't it? To put together a book made of anonymously written texts that still hold sway on so many people 2 millenia later is no mean fit. Try doing that today.

The authors of the bible and koran can not be put together in the same sentence with the word Illiterate. . . .They were highly educated people with limited knowledge compared to what we know now. . . .

futurewise11: I think u are wrong.I got this info from someone in holland.you can work but the timee is restricted to 10hrs per week and u cant work and its not a must that u speak dutch before u get work.but its good you understand the native language.mind you its either you work full time in the summer or part time for 10hrs per week you can't do the same together.its ur employer that will apply for work permit not your school or yourself,which takes 3-4 weeks to come out.there's also black market and there salary is usually high but if your company is caught they will be fine heavily and you may
Loose your residence permit.

Theory= An idea of or belief about something arrived at through speculation or conjecture= Guesswork.

@topic, please theists, desist from insulting the atheists, someone came to type 'fools' here just now. What did you intend to gain from that? If you cannot have a civil discussion, then leave the thread.

lurkee: davidylan & harakiri you guys are no longer contributing constructively to this thread. Carry your sphere vs circle vs corners vs ends lessons elsewhere.

For the OP, I am currently dating an Agnostic man and he is the most tolerant and loving man I have ever come across and this is coming from the daughter of a pastor. I have chosen to believe in the bible and like most Christians I have picked the rules to follow that would lead me to live right. I am in no position to judge my boyfriend and you should not judge your husband too.

You know deep in your heart that he is a good man and when it is you both at home you are OK with him exactly how he is and the problem is with others. You don't have anything to be ashamed of. Most religious people are hypocrites so it is only the heart that matters.

mazaje:
The african man LOVES superstition. . . .Our universities are NOTHING but superstition breeding centers. . . .How can a society be so religious (they ALWAYS claim religion is a good thing) and yet so rotten and in utter disorder?. . .We can't separate myth and urban legends from reality, its always dem say dem say or I hear say etc. . . .silly believes in crazy stuffs like charms, juju etc is really sickening. . .The worst of all is that when you tell them you don't share their beliefs in things like charms, juju etc they begin to get angry and uttering words like white people don deceive you. . .[/quote]

They reason so much in that direction that I once asked one of my friends in Nigeria why they believe what the white man says but when a fellow black mans thesame thing, they listen. Their mentality is that as a black man you are not suppose to reason for yourself but instead imbibe all what you are taught in the church/mosque as the case may be which is a big problem the black race is suffering from.

helpee:
did you listen to urself? AFTER LIVING IN NIGERIA FOR SOMETIME! People like you can't think for themslves. They just copy directly whatever they see the oyinbos do simply because of inferiority complex. For ur information, I grow up in both societies so I can't be brainwashed. I am not one of those people that desperately seek greener pastures abroad simply because they assumed they can never make it in Nigeria. When such people get abroad, they completely abadon whateva they have cos of inferiority complex. Unlike you, I spend every holiday abroad from time immemorial and I don't mean a single country and continent so the inferiority complex that makes first time traveller like you cringe at the sight of anything foreign has never been an issue for me. And its so funny that your so called enviroment did not play any part in your civility. I tut u said u lived among people with different religious background( not atheist like u initially made us believe) and u said u people mind your business. So unfortunate u are not reflecting your society on nairaland. What you were trying to say is that they respect the views of individuals so why are u always on nairaland abusing oyedepo and co. Why can't u leave him and his God like your more civil neigbours are doing

dare2think:
@Mr Helpee

If I may come in.

No need for animosity and angst between us, Lets try and discuss maturely and agree to dis-agree.

Firstly, the title of this thread notes that 'Bishop Oyedepo's Curse Has Started Working On Boko Haram', so obviously someone feels has the right to state their belief. However, you need to understand that, as this is a public forum, there will be others who also posses the right to dis-agree.

I understand that you revere Oyedepo, a stand that should be respected, however you have to understand that there are others that do not. And their stand should also be respected as you would want them to respect yours.

On the subject of the topic, at least lets be honest with ourselves, the 'curse' is not working! (at least as of yesterday). So, continuous defence of the title is a show of deep insecurities.

If Christians, who claim to hold the pillars of everlasting truth and should be models for honesty, cant accept something as obvious as a curse not working, it only gives 'unbelievers' more ammunitions to suspect folly within the religion.

Once again, these are my opinions, yours would be delightfully welcomed.

helpee:
I actually underestimated the level of your stupidity. With your write up, I suddenly discovered I was responding to an  who is largely suffering from insecurity. So ? After realising that 30 people died yesterday what have you done better than mocking the spirit of the dead by rushing to nairaland to use them to settle scores and gain cheap points? To be frank with you, idiots like you don't have have the ability to reason beyond their nose. Show me one single country that claims there is no God and yet they are succesful like you claim? Why are u so shallow in your thinking? If you actually take time to study the origin of the internet you will be shocked that even the originators of internet ascribe their success to God; anyway that is why you are grossly unsuccesful as its obvious in your level of animosity towards the society. People like you expect God to practically come down and do everything for them and once things are not working out they rush to a forum to deny the existence of God. silly; that is the only language I can use to describe a slowpoke like you.
