Golan007:
Why are we even listening to Jesus?

Listen to the Holy Spirit, that led Jesus.
Jesus said when the comforter is come, He the comforter, the Holy Spirit will guide us into all truth.
Jesus is Lord

Golan007:
You don't subscribe to an action Jesus himself took.

That's why I said it's religious. Did you ask the Holy Spirit why Jesus took those actions?
That Jesus fasted for forty days, does that mean I'll fast for forty days?
If I do that because Jesus did it, then it's pure religiosity and there's no life in it.
I said, if God permits it and gives you that grace, then get it to the glory of God.
Listen, I can begin to tell you things that Jesus did and I'll tell you to do exactly the same thing.
Okay, if I tell you that since Jesus didn't marry you also should not marry, since Jesus didn't have a disciple that is a lady, you shouldn't have any woman who is a pastor/assistant pastor/evangelist......
Listen, you should be guided by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God.
God bless you

Golan007:
You see how you are trying your beat to allow sleaze within the church?

We are here talking about Jesus who went into the temple and was disgusted by the merchandise people were making within it but here you are waiting for God to judge what eas clearly done by God in flesh.

Chariots were available for Jesus whilst on earth but he chose to walk and only on his triumphant entry did he request for a donkey, the equivalent of an "end of discussion" but no, many would not accept it.

I don't subscribe to this your ideology, anybody can get a private jet, aeroplane or chopper.
Don't say Jesus didn't have a private jet and use that as a yardstick. That's pure religious and it's not scriptural.
Abraham was so rich that he alone with his servants fought other nations and defeated them. Isaac was so rich that the Philistine nation envied him.
Do you know how stupendous is Solomon's wealth, talk about the gold, diamond etc
I hope you know how expensive the perfume that was poured on Jesus was.
If it's needed and if God gives the grace, then get it.
Whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God.
God bless

Prayerfully read your Bible and ask GOD to for Understanding.
There is nothing wrong with her confession and Expulsion.
Don't let anyone Deceive you with any watered down Salvation. Restitution is Biblical. Whatever comes from it, we give GOD Glory and move on. What is Important is that you have Pleased GOD.

I read my Bible under the illumination of the HolyGhost, I didn't the confession was wrong on her part but the action of the provost is wrong and I stand by it according to scriptures.
The prodigal son came with confession and we know what was the father's disposition to his confession, we equally know what the elder brother's disposition was when he got wind of his brother's restitution. He wasn't expecting the father to have mercy on his brothers confession, let alone re-instating him with celebrations.
What would be your action to the prodigal son after confession, I believe it would be like the provost.
Please, let us allow the Holy Spirit to bring us into the truth that is needed every time.
Thanks.

The Sister did the right thing to Confess and there is nothing wrong with the Decision to Expel her.

It is Better to be Punished and Expelled from school here on Earth than to Expelled from Heaven.

Your Degree and Earthly accomplishments will not give you access to Eternal life.

Making Peace with GOD ALMIGHTY is the Ultimate. That is what gives access to Eternal life.

Hello Sir, what the lady did was right but what the provost did was wrong.
It is the right of every believer to forgive, may I ask you what will it cost the provost to forgive her? The answer is absolutely nothing.
Jesus Christ himself said, he gave us the power to forgive sins, He said whatever sin you forgive is forgiven and whatever sin you do not forgive will not be forgiven.
Now, the lady has done this in her times of ignorance, and the Bible says the time of ignorance God has winked at.
So, what's the biblical rationale behind her expulsion?
The scriptures that says we should confess our secret faults to one another in the book of James is to the end that we might be healed, restored and free from guilt. Now that she confessed her secret fault, which is the right thing to do, the decision of that provost to bring her before panel is such a disgraceful thing.
Where is doctrine of Justification in all of these.
This is erroneous application of doctrines without the help of the Holy Spirit.
I pray the HolyGhost bring consolation to that sister and next time, she should know the Word of God for herself and be guided by God's wisdom and righteousness which is of Christ and not of man.

So sorry to hear your brother passing through this condition. However, there's always hope.
From all you've stated and looking at the symptoms, it's possibly a hormonal disorder, whilst not ruling our renal abnormalities.
This is what you should do;
Go to a standard laboratory and order the following test ASAP.
FULL BLOOD COUNT
RENAL FUNCTION TEST
LIVER FUNCTION TEST
THYROID FUNCTION TEST (TSH, T3, T4)
TOTAL PROTEIN TEST.
And if you've done some of those tests then you don't need to do them again, just do the ones you are yet to do.
It could be autoimmune hormonal disorder.
SYNLAB is a good place to get it done cheaper and faster.
You can reach my mail after you've gotten the test results and we'll take it up from there.
In the meantime, you can send me the test results you've done so far and I'll be glad to follow up.
Wish you the best.

Lest I forget, if you haven't done Electrolyte test, Urea test and Creatinine tests then please do to have a concrete confirmatory test.
But I know it bothers on renal or thyroid challenges.

needhelp909:
My younger who is age 20 has been battling with a sickness for over a year now.
His body is swelling up.
Eyes, neck, legs and stomach. They all appear puffed.
We have done all kinds of test and treatment, nobody has been able to diagnose the nature of the sickness.
There is no pain whatsoever, just swellings especially after a nap.
Also he sleeps more than usual.
There was a period it went down for like 3 months.
But now we are back to it again.
He is having difficulty in breathing because of the throat swellings
I will be attaching some of the drugs he is using.
And will be available to answer questions.

Pls ignore the typos here.

MaxInDHouse:
Christianity is not about fruitless arguments Sir! 1Timothy 6:4
Titus 3:9
Just address the below questions.
May you have PEACE!

I already have PEACE, having being reconciled to God through Jesus' blood. I can only enjoy multiplied increase of Peace.
Was told not to reply you but I will for the last time.
I'm sure you know Eli the priest in the Bible, you could have equally argued that Eli wasn't in the best place to tutor little boy Samuel in Shiloh based on the evidences of Hophni and Phinehas.
I'm sure if you were to be Hannah's brother, you'd tell sister Hannah not to carry Samuel to Shiloh citing Eli's sons as reasons.
But, Samuel was raised in Shiloh by Eli, same Eli that had Hophni and Phinehas o.
Be the judge yourself.

MaxInDHouse:
The man and his wife vowed to stay together come what may so Jesus said they must not separate no matter what happens! Matthew 19:3-9
Chris should have fought to keep his marriage, he himself woo the woman before they marry so he should have used the same sense to calm her down not allow her to go.
For that to have happened he is not in the position to counsel others regarding a successful marriage!

You're so wrong. In the book of revelation, didn't you see Jesus' messages to the angels of the churches, were those shepherds totally perfect without errors? absolutely no. But does that nullify their positional authority to receive from the Lord and teach the body of Christ within their domain, the answer is still no.
So, if a man of God is teaching based on God's leading and with scriptural proofs, such should be received without a bias mind irrespective of what's happening physically.

Muna4real:
This Man is stupid. Do you know how many guys are praying for this kind of birthday gift from their girlfriends?

Really, is he really stupid?
A hilux gift without papers, documents and receipt and you will receive it just like that?
That's a time bomb gift waiting to detonate. Best is to return it.
Only a stupid person will receive such gift without the necessary documents.

Rtk5:
I thinkvitbis too much for a child haba, Government need to be checking things like this. I just bought all these for my son at #53,000. And it must be in the school.

The truth is most people just send their children to private school out of peer pressure and hyping of better future.
Not knowing that, in reality if you send your children to public school, coupled with your personal discipline and extra lessons I can assure you, your kid will do excellently better and outshine private schooled kids anywhere.
You just need time for personal training and grooming for your kid.
I'm speaking from personal experience.

All I can say is the matter is spiritual.
That's the work of village people, you don't need anyone to tell you this. I'm sure they've been on your trail, perhaps you even tell people your moves and intentions.
This is why you need to be prayerful.
You can get on business with Jesus Christ today and save yourself of a lot.
God bless you.

The best way to air this protest aside the exposure via social media platforms is total boycotting of elections both in Okitipupa and Ilaje Local Government Areas.
Nobody should vote and be voted for.
The whole situation is messier that it's been painted here.
From backlog of debts, to failings of the political leaders, to insensitivity of the prominent elites.
Even if light is to be restored bin Okitipupa today ehn, you will still need rural electrification, transformers, sub stations and other structures to be put in place cos the whole apparatus is gone.
I pity their pitiable and pathetic situation.

Fafesot:
Why would you deviate from the point to spill uncomplimentary remarks about Ikale people. We're good, well educated and exposed people. We don't curse.

Yes, they're hardworking and love education. But I can tell you their level of literacy doesn't change their ill mentality towards their neighbours. You wake up hearing bitter cursings, swearing.....
They never appreciate any good thing, rather, they'll belittle it and disdain it.
Only few of them actually desires truth there.
Quote me if I'm lying sir

Kelvin30286063:
Hmmm
Op, don't say anything about what you know nothing about. I'm from Okitipupa. That's my home town. Our people caused what they are facing with electricity now. Back in the days, Okitipupa has the best electricity services in ondo state. They refused to pay for power. Then had a major issue with the then NEPA which forced the federal government to disconnect the entire town.
Fast forward to 6 months later, they had a major riot about the issue and thugs burnt all the transformer in the town. After that, they were totally ignored.
Even now that electricity have been privatizated. BEDC who is in charge of power in ondo stage asked the people of the town to pay 50% of what they owe and they will help restore power to the town but they refused. Claiming they must see power before they pay any money. Now the town has no hope of ever having power cuz BEDC vowed not to spend millions of naira to restore all the damages if there is no guarantee that they will get their money back.
The governor cannot even intervene since electricity is now in private hands. We are facing a lot of issues with BEDC at the moment and that's down to the fact that the company is owned and controlled by some stupid Benin people.

You're so on point. They hardness and wickedness of their heart is legendary. They can live a day without cursing their neighbours. Unrepentant evil minded Ikale people

yuping:
Foolish set of people and leaders. You mean the community cannot hold a meeting to agreed on what they can do to bring light to that area? This shows lack of cooperation in that area.
Witchcraft of the highest order.

You just nailed it right. The hatred and bickering they have for one another there is alarming. Witchcraft practices no be here.

Raptureminded:
The truth is always the truth sir... Though it is hard... May God help us

Truth that says for the man to make heaven he has to divorce his wives and hold on to only the first wife abi.
You'll be shocked that polygamist will make heaven on that day.
If he was already a polygamist before he became born again, and he paid the bride price for those wives, then the did is already done. He should stick with them. At least the wives and children will become born again and saved. What is the need of putting them away?
If your doctrine leads to someone going far from God then something is really wrong.

Speaklove:
What is God's ruling?
What is the opinion of men?
Between me and you: who is it that quoted what God's ruling is
And who was the one who brought in the opinion of men?

Stop this deception, and save your soul

Abominable perversion is sin.
The scripture is clear on this.
Why then did the judgement of God came on Sodom and Gomorrah?
Wasn't it because of their perversions. Was it not evident that the men of Sodom were gays and would prefer to sleep with the angels and even Lot himself rather than with Lot's daughters?
Genesis 19:5-7 KJV
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, WHERE ARE THE MEN WHICH CAME IN TO THEE THIS NIGHT? BRING THEM OUT UNTO US, THAT WE MAY KNOW THEM. [6] And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, [7] And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.

Alright, what of; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 KJV Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, NOR EFFEMINATE, NOT ABUSERS OF THEMSELVES WITH MANKIND, [10] Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Jude 1:7 KJV
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, AND GOING AFTER STRANGE FLESH, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

The Bible is clear on this matter.
Even Jesus Christ acknowledged that Sodom was judged in
Luke 17:29-30 KJV But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. [30] Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

That's the authority of the scriptures.

Most surprising is the number of viewers viewing this thread.
And they're all gonna go to church tomorrow o.
But come to think of it, it all started from abuse by the husband and the devil capitalised on this.
To every Bleep boy viewing this, you may not know the danger you're about breeding as a result of your wrong orientation that the womanhood is about use and dump, chop and clean mouth.....
Let the men be men of valour and be wise to build the woman to a woman of destiny.
Don't destroy a destiny cos it might have ripple effects on thousands of destinies.

don4real18:
Some months ago, I was supposed to get married to a lovely lady (Alias-Celia) whom I thought the universe made just for me. I find it unfortunate that this beautiful story was just never meant to be. This write-up is my story.
______________________________________________
Five years ago, while we both stared at the moon sitting in my compound and telling tales of our childhood, I studied her profile. She had a perfect-shaped jaw with rounded edges, full lips, and her ability to smile with so much ease. Her skin glowed against the moonlight, and her aura filled with so much innocence. It was no surprise when I finally popped the question asking her to be my girlfriend.

Four days later, I got a yes as her reply, and it became a beautiful relationship. Our companionship was a show of true love, or so I thought. She taught me to be a better kisser, and I made her be a better lover. We did almost everything together, and when challenges came, we solved them even though she was stubborn; A bit more than me.

Many moons down the line of love and sometimes distrust, she was to relocate to the FCT, the state where her family resides. I knew I was going to miss her, and it wasn't easy letting her go.

We did part ways at the airport, and ever since then, we were always on calls. I did notice later that I did most of the calling, and as time went on as it must, the regular calls became once in a while, and soon, it became longer.

I did play a little with other girls and tried getting into a relationship with others, but it just didn't work out. Perhaps, I wanted the kind of love that they could not give in return. It was no surprise when years later, my calls with Celia became regular and, I didn't mind doing most of the calling.

Soon, I traveled to Abuja, and she didn't seem enthusiastic about seeing me, even though my love clawed at my heart with a renewed burst of energy. This time, I decided that I wouldn't let go. I stayed in FCT for a while, I met her family, and I guess her feelings returned.

I returned to Lagos to continue working, and some months down the line, I was in Abuja again to see the one that I loved. We agreed that she would have to come to Lagos, and some months after I left Abuja, she arrived in the rowdy Lagos.

She met my family, and I popped the question, "will you marry me?" in a romantic atmosphere, and she was so happy that she was going to spend the rest of her life with me.

We made plans until the event of Corona took place, and it greatly affected my business. I became broke, but that didn't stop me from traveling to 3 different states to meet her family members and her pastor in FCT.

We did agree that we were going to have a small wedding, and the day of the introduction came, and I traveled with my family, spent a lot of money on hotel bills, etc. It did go well, and that was when it started.

She reneged on our agreement on the size of the wedding. She told me that she wanted to have her dream wedding although she had no money. I could not bring myself to spend so much on a wedding only to end up eating hand to mouth in my marriage. It became a back and forth argument. Her dad wanted it small, but her siblings wanted it big. My mum did try to advise her, but she felt my mum shouldn't have a say in her wedding being a supposed generation Z.

I did have to look for ways she would be happy without spending too much. Then the counseling issue came, and I was informed to come back to Abuja by her pastor. It was inconvenient, so I told her to recommend virtual counseling because I'm not ready to go and spend a lot staying there. She was mad at my response, saying that it was disrespectful, suggesting such to a supposed man of God, making it disrespectful to God.

I did try to let her know that we could use the money to do something else, but she was adamant. After some time, I did succumb to her demand, but she felt that it should not have led to an argument in the first place and decided to call the wedding off. I tried calming her down and even suggested that we postpone it, but she wouldn't budge with a reason so petty. It hurt at first. It made me lose focus for a while, but I guess I've pretty patched up now hence my decision to share with you all.

God bless us all.

In all fairness and honesty, I would say a big congratulations for escaping an expensive collosal disaster. And I want everyone to learn from this.

Golden147:
Good afternoon everyone..
Please I'm kindly in need of advice... ignore my typing ERROR..
There's this girl I love and I want to settle down with her. She's still in school while I'm still in school too. She's 22 while I'm 24 nd also in final YR and we both love each other..my mum has supported me to marry her.
I proposed to her and she said yes...I plan going her house next month next to start official martial rites but I'm afraid.
Here is my reasons

She's the only girl and the last daughter in a family of 5boys. Ever since we started dating, she's in 100l then, all her school burdens are on me..I take care of her and mine own...with this people around who knows about our RELATIONSHIP ask me to marry her to avoid story that touches the heart..which he has accepted , her mum nd dad have accepted it too.
My major concern about this girl is that those his brothers are not willing to do anything, istead the came asking me for small small money when I'm back, knowing fully I'm just dating thier sis....most times the my girl always feel ashamed of her brothers nd keep cursing them. The can't even call her on phone unless she calls them...nd the will keep asking why she didn't call them all this while knowing fully thier sister is in school nd not working.

I have thought about this over and over again, how do I marry from a family that can't even assist in anything...I know marriage is not always Rosy, what if something happens tomorrow nd I needed thier financial support..the can't render to me.
I discussed with my mum nd she told me I'm marrying thier sister who is well trained nd not the brother..that I can decide not to give them money again... But I'm very sad over this.
It's only the father and mum that acknowledge I hay been trying to see their sister through school expenses, including food and wears.
I discussed with my woman, she started crying, saying she knows her brothers are such a disgrace, telling me how she may commite sucide if I didn't marry her... She cried that she can't visits her house again... that her only hope will be to start prostitution which she can't see herself do that nd that's why she is going to commite sucide if I eventually leave her, all her social media handle is full with my picture, including her profile pictures.

Please what advice do you have for me.... should I let go of this girl, I don't mind letting go all I have already spent...I just want to make sure I won't regret the marriage tomorrow...I have already discussed with my mom nd we plan on going her house officially by August ending..but I'm still very worried.

Matured advice please

She's a good lady. Don't leave her o. Thank God she's on your side concerning this issue so it can be sorted out with wisdom. Sooner or later, your brother in laws to be will face reality and find their own ways.
So, stick with your lady, she's yours.
Kindly invite me for the wedding o.
Cheers and congratulations on advance.

If this letter is authentic, then Oluwaseun!

I am not TBJ fan, member nor follower but I still maintain it that the man made it to heaven. Not because of his generosity, not because of the love from millions of people worldwide as all that doesn't guarantee one heaven. I know what I saw concerning that man and I'm convinced strongly... That man made it to heaven and I know that some of the big GOs knows this but won't come out to say this because of the things said / believed in the past. It's okay.

You can hate me, bash me, curse me whatever I really ain't bothered especially when it comes to speaking the truth.

Those of you who all of a sudden turned prayer intercessor on my matter because of my previous post on TBJ, I am also praying that God opens your eyes to see it.

The beginning, the middle 'might be' terrible but it's the end that matters...

Happy Sunday.

Same here. God bless you for this. It takes special grace from the Holy Spirit to know some matters concerning his saints. You would think Jacob a cunny deceiver wouldn't encounter God but the covenant and altar at Bethel is stronger than Jacob's sinister schemings. I pray at the end of the tunnel we all find mercy of Jesus Christ.
What many people don't know is that beyond all that you see in the realm of the spirit I mean spiritual realm, there is the God Realm which is privy to few chosen and whatever decision taken by the council of the Godhead is final irrespective of what you see physically or in the realm of the spirit.
That is why there is what the Bible calls the Deep things of God, that the only Holy Spirit Himself searches.
Shalom

Dear nairalanders,
I am a graduate of Microbiology and currently serving but I want to be a Nurse as I am more passionate about that and it also has more prospect than Microbiology both in Nigeria and outside Nigeria. Please, suggest and advise me on what I can do right now. I don't mind going to School of Nursing but will prefer any school that can offer me Direct Entry into Nursing with my Degree Certificate. But if that is not possible, I am opened to writing JAMB again and going for Nursing.
Thanks

His grades notwithstanding isn't a determinant of his new found passion and aspiration for nursing. So, I'll be glad to help him if he wants to study nursing in U.K at masters level. We should stop pulling people down with poisoned words.
Reach me on my mail and I'll be there for the processing. Congrats on fulfilling your dreams
