Who First Saw Jesus After His Resurrection?

According to the Bible, it was a woman.

Mark 16:9-11 (KJV)

Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

The woman's name was Mary Magdalene. She was the one Jesus first appeared to after His resurrection that He first sent to His church to deliver the message of His resurrection.

John 20:16-18 (KJV)

Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

So it was a woman who preached the first Gospel in the church after the resurrection of Jesus, and it was Jesus Himself who sent her to preach it there.

Therefore anytime you hear any idea, doctrine or teaching which says that the woman ought not to speak in the church but to be silent, know that it's not of Christ, because according to the Gospels and Bible, Christ clearly permitted a woman to speak in the church, as a woman was the first person He sent to to convey the message of His resurrection to the church after He had resurrected from the dead.

Moreover, if you see a woman preaching or speaking in a church, saying that Jesus had appeared to her and sent her to deliver a message to the church, do not see it as unusual just because it's a woman and not a man, as a woman was the first person Jesus appeared to after His resurrection and also the first He sent to preach the Gospel of His resurrection to the church.

Jesus even rebuked His church, which includes His first eleven disciples, for not believing the woman and the others He first sent to them with the Gospel of His resurrection before He physically appeared to them, to illustrate how important the message He sent her to deliver to the church was to Him.

Mark 16:14 (KJV)

Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

God bless.

You are on point. I tell people that Apostle Paul’s provisions in 1st Corinthians 14: 34 was specifically directed towards the women in Corinth due to their argumentative nature.

One cannot really understand the scriptures if one isn’t well grounded in History especially, including Biology and Geography.

When President Tinubu said a trillion dollar economy is possible for Nigeria, people were mocking him. One thing I admire about him is that there’s no such thing as impossible in his dictionary.

This recapitalization policy by the CBN governor is a step in the right direction. He seems to be a very brilliant man.

May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria

How come the Boeing 777 and the Airbus A350 didn’t make that list?

For the records, the Boeing 777 is a very powerful vehicle with its engine circumference as large as the fuselage of the Boeing 737. Airbus developed the A350 to rival the B777.

Absolutely…

That’s not very true, we would have been a better country if Gen. Aguiyi-Ironsi did not effect the promulgation of the now-infamous "Decree No. 34", which abrogated the country's federal structure into a unitary one that’s still in effect till this day.

So OP, the Lion lives in the jungle right?

Clap for yourself.

Let him tell that to his Principal in Abuja

A better Nigeria

~ Higher GDP per capital
~ Sustainable Economic Growth/ Development
~ Larger investments in education/ physical infrastructure
~ Solid security architecture
~ The death of tribalism
~ Food sustainability

Etc

Nigerians wanted Peter Obi to be our president but Tinubu grabbed, snatched and ran away with it. It won't happen again in 2027. Peter Obi is the undisputed choice of Nigerians.

Speak for yourself. You have no right to impose your candidate on the millions in the country

Thank you Heavenly Father

OfoIgbo:


Whatever you have in the Land Use Act will never include a governor of a particular state, having expert knowledge of the gas resources in all the states of Nigeria. His powers will be limited to his state. Delta state does not possess 100% of Nigeria's gas resources, so Delta governor's opinions on the Nigerian gas resources is superbly inferior to that of the federal minister of state of the Petroleum ministry, whose sphere of influence, also includes all the gas deposits of Nigeria, including those in Delta state.

With regard to the bolded, you're welcome. At least my time with you has not entirely been in vain. You seem to be picking up a few lessons from me here and there.

Regarding the link you attached, I believe I saw it yesterday but I haven't gone through it. However, thank God billions are flowing into Nigeria. But the hungry masses on the streets of Nigeria will remain hungry and dangerous to this regime, if those billions fail to make their lives more livable.

MASS HUNGER/STARVATION IS NOT A RESPECTER OF AUDIO BILLION DOLLAR PROPAGANDA

Yeah yeah, cut me the juvenile humor.

And yes, there are hungry people every where, even in the Bronx district of New York.

The thing is that we should up our game, as how people that japa will up their game when thy get to their host country or territory as the case may be.

OfoIgbo:


With regards to the bolded, you should supply me with information from the Delta state governor regarding Nigeria's gas reserves, after all according to you, Delta state government ought to know more about gas reserves than the federal ministry of petroleum resources.

And let me lecture you a little also, following your logic I can also prove to you that the Delta state governor, whom you wrote, knew more about gas reserves, studied medicine and surgery, but you tried to confuse illiterates that he knows more about gas deposits than the federal minister of state for petroleum resources.

Let me tell you something else you obviously don't seem to know. The federal ministry of petroleum resources has departments and parastatals attached to it, that house experts in various aspects of the gas sector, including geologists and all manner of experts.
The petroleum ministry has way more of such resources than a mere government of Delta state.
So while the ministerial positions are political, the ministry of petroleum resources is the best port of call, when one needs to know more about the petroleum/gas situation in Nigeria. If you haven't learnt anything from this exchanges with me, please be aware of the above paragraph

Have you studied the Sections 1 and 2 of the Land Use Act I prescribed you should read about the powers conferred on the Governor of a State? If you haven’t pls do. You’re very arrogant and in the same vein, very ignorant too.

Furthermore, I have not, in the process of our exchange mentioned that the governor has a higher knowledge base than the Petroleum Minister. What I put forward is that being a minister is no biggie. He was appointed, not elected.

And thank God you told me about the other agencies under the Ministry. I never knew. You’re so brilliant.

In case you haven’t heard

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-08/billions-pour-into-nigeria-as-tinubu-s-reforms-start-to-pay-off

I did not vote Tinubu, but he’ll do well.

God bless the Republic of Nigeria

OfoIgbo:


So why is there no synergy between the ministry of petroleum resources and the Delta state government?

You have also shown great illiteracy by insinuating that the Delta governor knows more about oil and gas resources in NIGERIA, than the federal ministry of Petroleum resources.

If Delta state has 40% of Nigeria's gas resources, how come both Shell BP and SEPLAT are individually constructing massive gas complexes in Imo state and not in Delta state? You think such companies will sink the those billions of dollars in a state that has minimal gas resources.

And btw, why will you think that a 2021 article will still be ENTIRELY very current today in 2024? I'm even wondering whether you are normal, as a matter of fact.

https://www./200-trillion-cubic-feet-gas-deposit-imo-set-economic-ezenwa/

Bottomline is that at the moment, Imo state has more than 60% of Nigeria's gas resources. This is fact that your inferior intellectual somersaulting can never obliterate. At least you now seem to accept Nigeria has up to 206 tcf of gas. Initially, you were skeptical Nigeria even had up to 200 tcf, which Imo alone can boast of.

Why is there no synergy you ask me? I am not under the payroll of the Ministry or the Delta State Government.

You shouldn’t be emotional. But if you want to be emotional, I’m aggressively rooting for you in your latest wail-a-thon.

I gave you a source from the NUPRC, you’re giving me a source from Ezenwa. Who’s Ezenwa? I guess fellow manufacturers of false data from Aba. Lol…

For your information, the Minister of Petroleum Resources you quoted studied linguistics in the University so he doesn’t have the intellectual capacity to determine the quantity of natural gas reserves. That he is petroleum minister doesn’t mean anything. He has people grounded in that field working for him or at least procure the services of a geologist

Only trained geologists have that capacity.

I never knew I have ever since, been overestimating your knowledge base as regards topics like this.

The link you posted up there isn’t even opening. Lol

OfoIgbo:


So who is more of an authority on gas? The governor of one single state, Delta. Or a federal minister of state on Petroleum resources, of which gas is one major product.

Show me facts from a major official of the oil & gas sector, and we can talk. Don't just bring facts from someone who is not in that sector.

Anambra is even reputed to have five times the deposit in Imo state, but you don't see me bringing that information here, until it is verified and shared by an authority in the gas industry.
I am only hitting you with the Imo tsunami and you can't even counter it with proper data from a proper authority on gas matters.

Bayelsa and Delta can make any claim they like, but if it is not certified and verified by the ministry in charge of that sector, just consider it propaganda.
Once again, Igboland has the majority of Nigeria's gas deposits.

Both parties should have a synergy when events like this occur. However, the state governor is more of an authority. This is because if he doesn’t grant the relevant bodies the right to enter such land for exploration or mining as the case may be, nothing will happen.

Also the State Governor isn’t answerable to the President of the Federation unlike the Minister. Furthermore, the President can fire the Minister if he/ she doesn’t get his/ her acts right.

In your spare time, go and read Sections 1 and 2 of the Land Use Act and educate yourself.

Furthermore, data from NUPRC shows that Nigeria’s gas deposit stands at 206.5TCF

https://www.nuprc.gov.ng/nigerias-gas-reserves-hit-206-53-trillion-standard-cubic-feet/

So where did you manufacture the 300TCF from?

From the shoemaking factories in Aba right? LOOL!

OfoIgbo:


It's obvious I have slaughtered you with facts.

You are obviously pained to learn from me that Igboland bears a vast majority of Nigeria's gas deposits.

Why should I concern myself with how many BCFs SW has, when Igboland has 100s of TCFs of gas.



Thank God the statement on Imo gas was made by a former Bayelsa governor, otherwise you would have claimed it's Igbo propaganda.

Once again, Igboland has the vast majority of Nigeria's gas reserves. I hope this beautiful news haunts you all weekend

Lol

Slaughtered with facts with no sources whatsoever? Let me take you down memory lane. The past governor of Delta State, Sen. Ifeanyi Okowa said 40% of the country’s gas deposits sits under the territory of Delta State.

Source
https://guardian.ng/business-services/okowa-rallies-investors-to-explore-delta-gas-reserves/

Have you come across any Deltan on this forum making a fuss from that statement?

Your submission up there cannot haunt me cuz I’m armed with facts. For your information, I am in the value chain in this industry so go and tell that crap you wrote up there to the other unlettered folks of your ilk.

OfoIgbo:


The country's proven gas deposit is about 300tcf. So you are headed nowhere with this attempt to throw in a smokescreen.

Of the remaining 100 TCF, Igbo states and Igbo areas in the SS still hold a majority on those

I know Lagos state also has a few BILLION Cubic feet of gas deposits. Not TRILLION, bear that in mind.

TCFs, are mainly found in the SE and SS. BCFs are found in Lagos, and maybe one or two other SW states.

Now you’re putting “maybe” into the discuss. I was right when I said you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Stop this gross ignorance you’re displaying in this public space.

OfoIgbo:


The country's proven gas deposit is about 300tcf. So you are headed nowhere with this attempt to throw in a smokescreen.

Of the remaining 100 TCF, Igbo states and Igbo areas in the SS still hold a majority on those in the bag

What’s your source the country’s proven reserves is about 300TCF? It’s no where near that level.

Stop lying to yourself.

OfoIgbo:


Obviously someone has been lying to you. Most southeast states have more than 18 tcf of gas.
In fact, Imo state has about 200 tcf. Below is exactly what the former minister of state of Petroleum, who apparently was the former governor of Bayelsa, said about Imo gas.

“Imo state with 200 trillion cubic feet of gas deposits should be set for economic boom,” Sylva said during a visit to the Imo Governor, Hope Uzodinma, in April 2021.7 Jan 2024

Google the above and stop bringing a bulala to a gun fight.

“Imo State with 200TCF of gas deposits”

The question you should ask yourself is that what’s the country’s proven gas deposit that only Imo alone accounts for the aforementioned quantity? You don’t really know what you’re talking about and no doubt people have been lying to you.

Every tribe and region is blessed. Your gloating so early in the morning is very uncalled for.

OfoIgbo:


The two most oil-laden LGAs in Nigeria are Igbo-speaking.

They are ONELGA and Oyigbo LGAs, all in Rivers state.

Igbo oil was used in developing the whole of Nigeria.

Igbo gas also trumps the gas reserves of any other Nigerian ethnic nationality.
Igbos have more than 90% of Nigeria's gas reserves.

You can choke on this very depressing news.

There are improvements but minimal

Na lie you talk so… Go to Ikeja and see things for yourself.

Igboid:


They are the biggest.

Anioma is 1/3 of Delta.
Igbanke is Igboid and is in Edo state, Boy Spyce and Rema are from Igbanke.
Ikwerre, Etche, ONELGA, Omuma, Ekpeye, Ofigbo, Opobo and Bonny form more than 60% of Rivers State!
Few Ukwuani speaking villages in Bayelsa state, Ohaobu village on Akwa Ibom, Isobo clan in Cross River.
No other ethnic grouping in SS comes close.

Okay. Suit yourself

proeast:
Igbos or Igboid groups are probably the largest ethnicity in the SS, yet when the term SE and SS is mentioned despite other factors like geography and demographics aligning both regions, the same insecure buffoons from the slum region will start foaming in the mouth.

Spit!

The Igbos or Igboid tribal groups are not probably the largest tribal group in the South South. They are the largest tribal group in the aforementioned geopolitical zone in your puny mind.

Ozuo.

Yeah. Herbert Wigwe founder of Access Bank is a man who has taste for luxury. Even his University in Port Harcourt oozes class.

Unfortunately he just passed away with his wife and child in a helicopter crash in U.S.

I think they said he took time off with his family and was going to watch a game. A huge loss.

Huge loss I must say too.

Yes, you're right. He was going to watch the Super Bowl played in the early hours of Sunday between Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas.

Nothing new here. Every big game na opportunity for Tuchel to disgrace himself. I trust Hamann and Matthaus to squeeze his neck like crazy this night, e never see anything. Useless coach.

There's no stopping Leverkusen now. They are going to coast to the title and we are going to drop more points. God go forever punish the fools that sacked Nagelsmann and brought in Tuchel. They just set the team backwards.

Harry Kane is definitely ending this season trophyless. Poor lad. Dem go use trolling kill am.

I dey tell you. How will a Bayern team so used to playing a 4-2-3-1 all season switch to a 3-4-2-1 overnight just to match Bayer? The players aren't used to that system and to be honest, would be suprised if we got a draw in Leverkusen. I dont see this Leverkusen team bottling this, even with their Europa League campaign. The players they lost to the just concluded AFCON are back (save for Boniface), plus Borja Igleisias they signed from Real Betis.
