 Romance › Re: How Long Can A Relationship Without Intimacy Last ? by bishoppapi: 9:55am On Oct 23, 2013 |
Sermwell: Experience have taught me to have sex in a relationship as soon as the oppurtunity presents itself! Even where the oppurtunity is not there, I strive to create one.Bros, next time, dont be partaker of another man's sin. There is no difference between you and the sister in question. Sometimes, I wonder why our generation celebrate sins so much and then run to God when in trouble. All these 'knack am here, knack am there' you are doing will become nothing to you when old age begin to set in and most people will be angry at themselves for the way they wasted their lives on things that don't even matter in life. Then you will understand that living for God, living holy, doing what is right at all time is the whole essence of man. Furthermore, do not be deceived into believing that everybody does the same thing. You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty. An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it. Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self sustained. Your life is more important than the 2 minute of ejaculatory excitement passed down your pelvic muscles while you shake like jellyfish. Your life does not belong to you...Honour God with your life....sin is sin....a politician stealing public fund is not different from an unemployed graduate that has turned himself to 'bingo'....they have both committed evils....There is much to life and living than wasting your being. Stay holy, live holy...sin no more. 5 Likes |

Phder: While I have no contrary opinion as to your point of view, the purpose of my post is to show that, he can as well live comfortable in another city with the amount of money he is currently spending in Lagos.I agree with you my brother...It's just that most people find it difficult to move away from Lagos...I tire for them....most people live from hand to mouth in Lagos when they can live good lives elsewhere with the same amount of money they spend in Lagos....Lagos syndrome I guess. 1 Like |

Phder: My Aunt lives in Ibadan, in a four bedroom flat (nice neighborhood) they pay a little above #100,000 per year. It's not compulsory to live in Lagos!!! There are successful actors/actress living in Abuja, Ibadan, PH and other part of the country.Cool down oga, a lot of those your successful actors/actresses are drug barons!!! Have you forgotten Wumi, Sola Sobowale, Baba Suwe etc...Some of these people were caught, paraded in local TVs and prosecuted within and outside Nigeria for their involvement in drug trafficking. Dont forget Wumi has one powerful building in Ikorodu for example, but dont forget how she was paraded on national TVs and prosecuted before the powers that be came to her rescue. With the level of piracy Nollywood is facing, Nigerian actors and actresses are not better than average Nigerians..but in a bid to fly the celebrity lifestyle, some of them engage in drug trafficking. Have you ever wondered how they make their money, how many Nollywood movies have many of us purchased in the last 20years? I cant remember buying any Nollywood movie in the last 20years of my life. The truth is some of these actors and actresses have refused to say 'No' to drug trafficking. These people understand that a man's life does not consist in the abundance of the things he has. I just pray the govt help them to tackle and eradicate piracy, so that they can make their money. 1 Like |

Rapture Theory (Final Part) Also keep in mind that the Two Witnesses of God... Rev 11:3 "And I will give [power] to my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, (3 and one half years... tribulation period) clothed in sackcloth. Rev 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. Rev 11:8 And their dead bodies (they are not in heaven waiting...) [shall lie] in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified." Rev 11:11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; (resurrection of the entire church at Christ's return) and great fear fell upon them which saw them. Rev 11:12 And they heard a great voice (same great voices of Rev 8:6) from heaven saying to them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. ... are alive and preaching to the whole world during the tribulation period, are killed, and then are resurrected at the same time ALL the saints are resurrected... at the last trump... when the loud voices in heaven are heard and EVERY eye sees Christ return, and they ascend to (the first) "heaven," the sky and clouds. How many resurrections are there? At least two that we can see from scripture, possibly three. The FIRST resurrection is of the saints at Christ's coming. If the rapture were true, there would be a resurrection before the tribulation and one after it... then another one after the 1000 year reign of Christ, which by the way is ON EARTH, NOT in heaven where everyone thinks they will be. Why would you even want to go to heaven when Christ will be here on earth? The greatest threat the rapture theory makes is in the hope countless people have who believe that it will occur prior to the tribulation... thinking it will save them from this time period. This creates a false sense of security and often makes for a sleeping and weak Christian belief system that prevents the bride, (the body of Christ) from "making herself ready." The question, finally, to ask yourself is this: "What will you do if the rapture does NOT occur, as you expect?" Will this cause you to lose hope that God is in charge? Will you panic when things fall apart around you and yu are not wisked away like you expect? The greatest issue is not "escaping" tribulation, but drawing close to God so that we may be counted worthy to escape... Luke 21:36 "Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape (Rev 12:14-17) all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man." This isn't saying to "pray that you may be counted worthy..." but to "pray always..." that the results of prayer, and drawing close to God in spiritual understanding, may allow you to escape "all these things" which Christ spoke about, and NOT have to be the remnant of the church who were NOT ready and had to be tried (Rev. 3:14-21) overcome, and be perfected. The rapture as taught is a false teaching that will not occur as most expect it will. We need to be aware of the truth of Christ's return, and be preparing for it and to rule with Him once here on Earth. |

Rapture Theory (Contd) Dan 11:35 "Some of the wise will stumble,(stumble=OT:3782 cast down, be decayed, (cause to) fail, (cause, make to) fall) so that they may be refined, purified and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time." NIV Notice that this addresses God's own... who are tried, up to the end of this age, and Christ's return. There is no taking of these away from earth. Next we have to ask, just when does Christ return to this Earth, and where does He return to ON Earth? John 17:15 "My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one." Christ's will was that His called were NOT to be taken out of the world, not raptured away. 1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. Rev 1:7 Behold, he comes with clouds; Notice this tells us that at the last trump... Christ will return and resurrect His saints to be gathered to Him in the clouds of our sky. When is this last trump that sounds so loudly and that ALL will see and hear? Rev 8:6 "And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound." Rev 11:15 "And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become [the kingdoms] of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." Christ returns to Earth at the sound of the last/7th trumpet, and every eye will see this return. This return is at the end point of the tribulation period as Revelation clearly shows, so how can a "rapture" take the saints to heaven prior to the last trump? Lastly, where does Christ Himself go AT His return? He meets the saints in the air as He is returning with the armies of Heaven, and at THAT time, he goes to a specific place... Zec 14:4 "And his feet shall stand in that day (The last trump - Christ's return to Earth) upon the mount of Olives, which [is] before Jerusalem on the east..." Notice that Christ comes to resurrect the saints, gathering them from one corner of heaven to the other... Mar 13:27 "And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven." Notice that the elect are gathered from all over the earth... under, on and above. "Heaven" here is the first heaven, (sky-atmosphere) or the highest mountain tops, not people supposedly in the third heaven. Also remember... Christ tells us in Mt. 24... Matt 24:22 "And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened". If the Elect are raptured from the earth, why would Christ have to "shorten" the days "for the elect's sake?" They are already safe in heaven, right? No, Christ shortens the days so that His elect are NOT eliminated with all flesh on earth. He steps in to stop this destruction that would destroy the whole planet, including those elect who are on this earth waiting for Christ's return and the resurrection. The elect's "sake" likely also refers to Christ's promise to His saints of ruling with Him on this earth over the nations. If the earth were destroyed, God's plan, the millennium, etc., would not happen as He wills. So, where does Christ immediately go after the resurrection of those who have died in Christ, and all those in the true church yet alive on earth? Christ then goes, that same day, to the Mount of Olives, (Zach 14:4 above) the very spot where He left His apostles long ago. In order to believe and accept the rapture theory, you have to disregard these scriptures that tell us the sequence of events that involve Christ's return and the resurrection of the saints. The return of Christ is after (or at the close since there are yet 7 last plagues yet to be poured out AFTER the resurrection) of the tribulation period of 3 and one half years, NOT before it. The church - a portion of it - is protected by God on this Earth, while the other portion is persecuted and likely many, if not all, martyred. |

Rapture Theory: Is it Biblical? Those who believe in a "rapture" - a supposed event that will wisk away Christians to heaven and from the tribulation time - has no biblical backing. Worse yet, it is responsible for a false hope that many are counting on, but which will NOT happen as they believe. Let's address the rapture by looking at a number of scriptures that have to be answered that call into question any rapture taking place as many believe it will. 1 Th 4:16 "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first :17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." The above 2 verses are the primary scriptures used to support a rapture theory. Of themselves, this simply teaches that the dead in Christ and those still alive who are a part of the true Church will be raised... RESURRECTED to, or changed to, spirit. Some make a big to-do about the words translated "shall be caught up" as if these words had some spiritual significance that supports the rapture theory. The words are taken from the Greek - ( to seize (in various applications): - catch (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force)). This simple means what it says and nothing more... that when the resurrection takes place, we will rise - be brought up to where Christ is... in the clouds. To build a doctrine out of this alone is dangerous. Let's look at scriptures speaking about the "church:" Rev 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, (3 and 1/2 years) from the face of the serpent. Rev 12:15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. Rev 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. In the above scriptures, we see a number of issues being revealed. The woman is clearly the Church of God... God's true people. This church is taken to a place of protection for 3 and one half years, away from Satan's influence and attacks. The scriptures show that this protection is right here on Earth, and lasts during the tribulation time. God provides miracles that protect this group of people and this makes Satan angry, after which Satan goes back to make war with... WHAT? The "remnant of her (the Church's) seed." This means those NOT protected in God's Church are having to face persecution and are STILL right here on this earth. (NOTE: An interesting parallel or type of this can be seen in how God dealt with Pharaoh and ancient Israel. Pharaoh eventually allowed Israel to leave their bondage, led by God, but then changed his mind and sent an army to take them back. Pharaoh is a type of Satan who holds the world in bondage to sin. God provides escape for His people, and protects them from the people who want to put them back into bondage. God allowed the waters of the Red sea to swallow them up, just as the "earth" swallows up this "flood" or army being sent to stop these people of God from escaping. Interesting that it seems that the church is on its way to this place, and THEN the armies are sent to get us back, like a change of mind on the authorities part... as Pharaoh changed his mind...). Rev 6:9 "When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" 11 Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed." This scripture while NOT a literal situation. Why would God be keeping "souls" under an alter? This is simply acknowledging that there are saints who were killed and are now "resting" in death, because they were martyred, till they are resurrected to spirit life. Those to "BE" killed as yet during the tribulation time are NOT protected, but lose their lives. |

PureOhio: While I think it’s perfectly fine for a woman to bring up the subject of marriage, and highly advisable for a couple to discuss the topic of marriage before a proposal, I want to reiterate that it is the man’s duty to get down on one knee and ask for your hand in marriage.Is there ever a law or constitution that says it's a man's duty to propose? Anybody can take the initiative first in my own opinion. It is a baseless assumption that the man must do it...if the guy is not talking, the lady should ask and it shall be given...nothing spoils... |

There is nobody in hell now, just as there is nobody in heaven. People dont go to heaven when they die, neither do people go to hell when they die. This contradicts the message of 'resurrection'. If people go to heaven when they die, why do they need to resurrect again on the last day?. When people die, they fall asleep, their memory is forgotten. Christ resurrected on the 3rd day, and our faith and hope are based on this resurrection, that in the last day, the dead in Christ will rise first. So, why do they need to rise when they are already in heaven? Does it make sense? Pay no attention to people like this woman that come with the doctrine of the devil. Her vision or dream is unbiblical. The saints fall asleep, until that day when mortality shall become immortality. The scripture says some people will resurrect into eternal life, while some people will resurrect to eternal condemnation/damnation. 1 Like |

solidbroda: Stupid!!! Was Nastrodemus a prophet before he predicted happenings in the world centuries before? Was Newton a prophet when he made electricity? Was Faraday a prophet when he made an object to fly?You are a disgrace to humanity. So tell us who a true man of God is or just name few people that you know are true men of God. What are your criteria for identifying a true man of God? Sometimes it is better not to talk or say anything than vomiting rubbish...I mean silence is golden. Your post means, we can then say that not every parents are the real parents, which means your parents might not be your true parents...so try and find out if they are!!! Jesus said ''Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father....John 14:18'' Signs and wonders are necessary in every ministry because the scriptures says "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free'' Luke 4: 18. There are fake prophets, yes I agree, but that does not nullify the existence of genuine men of God. I am not a TBJ fan, neither am I an enemy...It is not mine to do. Summary is, when you dont have any proof that a pastor is fake, it is better to keep silent than utter rubbish....silence is golden. |
