Why hasn't he resolved it? Buhari loves lack of laws ..now SERAP can't even sue him

Resolve it how? By bending to the strikers will, perhaps? And then what? Others strike and he bends to their wills too? If you know Buhari likes lack of laws, then why strike and give him what he likes ? Where's the sense in that?

Google "UK miners strike". I'd ask you to start reading from the one in 1969, but for the lazy 1984–85 will do. Just so you know, those advising bubu started from 1893, in case you want to know the enemy you are up against.

FarahAideed:
Courts workers have been have been on strike for months now and no court can seat

So how does strike become "Buhari closed courts"? Did Buhari tell them to strike?

azraeljaheel:
Your reasoning is crazy

Shallow minded individuals can never fathom your angle of seeing things

Hence my cry for help ... How can everyone see you as being comfy but deep down you feel like you are different

Can I pm you

No you may not pm me. You may get instruction on how to contact me from my profile, but I prefer communicating on here if your contacting me is relevant to the topic here at least.

And please note that no human being is created with a shallow mind. Just some who might not want to use theirs

Are the courts closed? Source please!

hupernikao:
Then advise him to show the questions.

And also don't forget to advise his to ask questions as a learner not as the master of the same question. You can't be seeking knowledge while displaying ignorance wisely.

I really wish it worked the way you want it to work, that first, my advise would be taken; second, that a person who thinks he knows it all would become a learner; and third, that a person even knows they are seeking knowledge and therefore know what and how to ask questions.

Are you not aware how people reacted when told they should reenter their mothers womb and be born again? Can you not imagine how absurd threading a camel through the eye of a needle must have sounded? Do you think it was understood when told the faith like a mustard seed can move mountains?

Sorry, hupernikao, but it is written that it is you who must exhibit your good works so that your Father in heaven is glorified, and only then will they ask where you live and learn from you.

BassReeves:
The hunter turned into a wolf and devoured Red Riding Hood Eve

budaatum, just as in a way that shows a lack of experience, wisdom or good judgement, when and where you mistake religion and faith for each other, you now are doing a similar, in mistaking knowledge and wisdom for each other

You see budaatum, many people have knowledge, but they don’t have wisdom aka applied knowledge. Adam and Eve, by prematurely eating of the fruit from the Tree of knowledge of Good and Evil, brought upon themselves total annihilation. Its by the mercy, grace and love of God, that God had a get out of jail free pass or card to use for them to save themselves from their unclothedness and blushes. It is on the strength of the protoevangelium, that first promise after the fall from grace that Eve rejoiced at the birth of Seth as she found hope in the seed.

budaatum, knowledge without God and without wisdom is very dangerous. That’s one of the oldest problems in the world today. You have a lot of vain and 'straddling the fence' knowledge, you have accumulated a lot of perverted learning (i.e. knowledge without God and without wisdom), but the Bible, in 2 Timothy 3:7 sums you up, in saying about you that you're always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth'.

You are funny, Bass! Just see here what God had me prepare while you were busy typing what you typed above.

Have you forgotten that the Fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is good for gaining Wisdom?

If so, how can the buda who is literally, and physically, and spiritually trying to poison you with it (as you seem to think), not possibly know the difference between knowledge and wisdom, or faith and religion?

BassReeves:
1. What didnt happen?

The entire story never happened! As Sonmvayina rightly said, a story to teach humans a lesson.

BassReeves:
2. Are you saying that Adam and Eve didnt immediately experience spiritual death?

Not only did Adam and Eve not experience spiritual death, or any death for that matter, on the day that they ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, their eyes opened, they gained Wisdom, they were freed from slavery, they produced billions of offsprings, and they lived for 900 or so years!

God, please, if that is spiritual death, give me now because I buda would love to spiritually die and achieve what Adam and Eve achieved, though please note that I am willing to settle for just the eye opening and the Wisdom like Wise Solomon did.

Thank you Lord God Almighty in advance.

BassReeves:
3. Are you insinuating that it wasn't in that day that Adam and Eve stopped living?

Of course they did not stop living! As said above, and as you too have clearly read, they ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil when they were barely 120 years old and went on to live until they were 900 or so years during which they populated the earth with what has resulted in your very own self (according to Biblical understanding I better add!).

BassReeves:
4. Are you saying that in that day Adam and Eve ate of the fruit, they surely didnt become a living dead or walking dead?

Seriously, Bass, but how many times and ways do you intend to ask the same question? Can the living dead or walking dead produce the billions of fruits that Adam and Eve produced?

BassReeves:
5. Are you saying the spirit man in Adam didnt die (i.e. severance of its links with the Spirit, that God is)

By God, you really are tiring in your attempt to avoid accepting what you can see with your own eyes Bass. Please tell me if you think any human being whose spiritual and or physical link with God is severed can achieve all that Adam and Eve achieved! Do you seriously think Christ lied when he said the father in heaven would not ever forsake its sheep, much less the very first created humans? Or you think they could have achieved all they did if [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%20127&version=ESV]God had not built the house and watched over them[/url]?

Sorry, my Lord for jumping in to answer this. As you can see, I could not resist the temptation.

Let me state here so it is known, that everything about God and Christ is Consciousness, and those who are unconscious will not understand anything about either of them and will go about behaving like devils while thinking they walk with the Theo, or not as may be the case with the aTheoist.

And if, or when, you become Human Fishers (which you will become if you keep this up!), you will only be speaking to that which is capable of consciousness in others, whatever God or not you call on or worship or not.

God is building us into becoming powerful people regardless of our religions or beliefs or disbeliefs.

Sonmvayina do note.

HellVictorinho:
My brain is hotter than this!!!!

Can John be good and bad to the same person at the same time?

Yes. Though John might not agree, just as hell would never agree that buda might possibly be being good to hell. Its like when nasty daddy kicks your ass for your own good when you err. You might hate daddy for kicking your ass, but the ass kicking is probably good for you in the long run.

LordReed:
BTW lemme ask you do you think religion should be taxed or tax free?

A 'religion' that is right and proper will give to the tax man what is tax and give to Lord what is God's.

Basically, it will spend what is tax on that which tax should be spent on, like feeding the poor and helping the vulnerable, so that the tax man will see what it does and even give it a refund or more to do that which it does. That, my Lord, is what will be done and is what is done.

You will be surprised to find out how much the Nigerian, and UK and US governments give to religious organisations just because they do feed and educate the poor.

BassReeves:
budaatum unconsciously, you're getting a sense of, the ideal for what pure and true religion that has no flaws nor faults is. The operative keywords are 'with no flaws nor faults' (i.e. religion you cant fault nor find any flaw in it)

"Unconsciously", you say, Bass. Is that because you can not possibly admit that buda can possibly be conscious of what buda is saying?

I guess you have not yet realised that is what happened to Eve in the Garden of Eden. She and Adam were unconsciously naked (as opposed to literally without clothes), until Eve consciously acquired Wisdom and their eyes opened to their unconsciousness and they became conscious.

Well, let me consciously commit the sin of arrogance so that when you become conscious of what buda is saying you will know how great buda's sin is.

You see, despite all your resistance, you will fail at ignoring that which the Holy Spirit will continue to bombard your mind with and then will you understand how great buda's sin is, and then will you fall on your knees and pray that buda does not burn in the hottest region of hell for buda's sin of being the conduit through which Jesus Christ the Lord of Wisdom and Understanding and the Messiah of humankind will eventually open your eyes. And when you do, we shall both say God is Great, and Amen.

In the meantime remember that blessed are those who keep the peace.

Loads quick. No unnecessary popups. Interesting articles. Opportunity to post comments.

Very okay. You just need to find a way to monetise it without ruining it too much.

Here is an example of a blog I like. He monetises by non-invasive adverts and by seeking donations which I gladly donate to because he educates me.

Kobojunkie:
The teachings of Jesus Christ was preached to the uneducated poor people of His time without use of those principles you attempt here to drag and many of them understood it without problem.

Really? Did they understand him now?

I guess that is why they did not [url=https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+15%3A+21%E2%80%9341&version=KJV]nail his ass to a cross and mock him and spit on him and poison him and stab him[/url] and why he lived to a very ripe old age!

hupernikao:
This is not the focus here. I hope you aren't excusing yourself from spot light of knowledge you claim to have.

I asked you, why are you parading yourself as knowledgeable in what you don't know anything about. It will be better you stop speaking on things you should be listening to learn. This is proper and honest.

The reason is that while he is not quite aware, he is actually asking questions within the contexts of his knowledge, and it is for those with Christ in their hearts to see the questions he is imperfectly asking and to give answers if they can.

I wonder if he had a heart attack.

LordReed:
Hey what happened to good old Muttleylaff? Haven't seen him comment in a long while.

I don't know. I'll email to find out.

LordReed:
Yes my dear buda but then he attempts a distinction between true and false religion while practicing both. That is a monumental contradiction.

It is at this point that I get to say, one must love one's neighbour as one loves oneself and one's enemies (as in, those with opposing views) even moreso.

You see, my Lord. buda was born an atheist, as in "one who does not believe but one who seeks and knocks and asks with all one's heart and soul and mind in order to know instead". buda did not just 'believe', as some atheist do, that there are no Gods, buda categorically knew that there are no Gods at all, and that Gods are the figment of the imagination, as in the crap some create inside their heads and bow down and worship. And then one day I met a certain LordReed, and ever since have I known that the Lord does indeed say to my Lord that inasmuch as I do unto the least of these whom I see before me, I have done also unto my imaginary God. You might be able to understand how liberating that was to my atheistic mind!

Wretched I was once lost, is my point, and now I have found my Lord. And since that could happen to me, I must find it in me to have compassion and the amazing grace to forgive those who have not yet found what I might have found. Or I'd be chopping off the limbs and plucking out the eyes of others while hypocritically not first plucking out my own offensive eyes nor cutting of my own offensive limbs first!

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Was Grace that taught my heart to fear
And Grace, my fears relieved
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
We have already come
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far
And Grace will lead us home
And Grace will lead us home
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Was blind, but now I see

LordReed:
Is it funny that the one who said, in that you will surely die but that didn't happen, is the one you consider truthful, while the one who said, you won't die but your eyes will be open and it happened, is the one you consider a liar.

It is more than funny, my Lord. It shows how devious that which is refered to as satan can be. It meddled in heaven and turned some angels into demons, we read. It entered Eden and made out it was God when it can not possibly have been God for God can not have a need for ignorant slaves! It writes a book and enters our minds to blind us to what we clearly see for ourselves. And then it sends us out to preach its lies and deceit to the multitude so we will crucify the Christ it failed to tempt to bow down and worship it!

But God does not forsake us. The lies can not hide the truth just as darkness can not ever overcome the Light. But we must ask and knock and seek with all our hearts and souls and minds and beings in order to see, and then, as that Muttleylaff's siggy whom I so miss used to say, and as is written in the words that the living Jesus spoke which was hidden least we read with our own eyes and our minds open:

Jesus says: “The one who seeks should not cease seeking until he finds. And when he finds, he will be dismayed. And when he is dismayed, he will be astonished. And he will be king over the All. For Whoever finds the meaning of these words will not taste death.”
Gospel of Didymos Judas Thomas

May we all have mud rubbed in our eyes so we may go wash in the Pool of Siloam and may see!

LordReed:
The first high priestess of Wisdom, may her many fruits continue forever.

Aleluya Amen!

My Lord, do know that you are the first to see Eve for what she is. The next phase is to show how Mary taught Jesus to become a High Priest of Wisdom too, and why we must follow him in order to do greater things than he did instead of making an idol of him and stupidly bowing down to worship it!

Minister of Foreign Affairs, stated that the only condition to lift the indefinite suspension on Twitter in Nigeria is if the platform can be used ‘responsibly‘.

You all done hear? Use twitter responsibly and the ban will be lifted!

Though I kind of doubt all we Nigerians or anyones everywhere really, can ever all use twitter responsibly, lol. I mean, we don't even all use Nairaland or church or mosque or Allah and God and Jesus and Mohammed responsibly so what's the chance of us all using twitter responsibly, eh?

But I might be wrong and the rapture might rap and give us all new hearts and minds and souls one day because nothing is impossible for the Gods, I'm told.

May the day soon come I, pray.

BassReeves:
Exactmundo. Hole in one. However would you say they are pure and true religions, religion with flaw or fault?

Anything can be religion, so far its a pursuit, but is it virtuous?

LordReed:
So yeah being on Nairaland is a religion. What does it matter which is true when all you do is a religion of one form or another? You are a poly religionist anyway.

BTW lemme ask you do you think religion should be taxed or tax free?

You both are using 'religion' to rightly mean "an understanding by which a life is lived", as well as in the sense of "that which is religiously done", as in done diligently and regularly, like posting on Nairaland.

Fact is, one can practise any religion, which in itself may be right or wrong, in a right or wrong way. One could for instance be a Muslim who murders or a Lord Lord Christian who can't turn the other cheek once or a footballer who does not train instead of a Muslim who follows the five pillars of the faith or a Christian who loves one's neighbours and ones enemies even more so or a footballer who regularly trains to hone her skills.

Noisy gongs and clanging cymbals, you see, can exist in just about everything we do mindlessly and wrong, so doing right whatever one does matters a lot.

ugandanstudent:
Thanks alot

Thank you a lot! This is the beginning of your million fold success.

I am very tired of lazy fuqs who sit on their asses blaming Nigeria for their worthless existence so people like you are a ray of hope and sunshine.


P.s. Your thread was likely removed because you advertised a service contrary to the rules in the travel section. I suggest you repost it in this section please where such rules do not apply.

BassReeves:
Notice Adam and Eve never questioned God that they are not dead after eating the fruit of the tree, solely because as I already have shared, they in an instant, did spiritually die, only for physical death to be trotting right behind spiritual death to make its entrance.

And what would have been the point of questioning a God whom they already discovered was a liar? To accuse It of lying, perhaps? I wonder what the point would have been since they were already free from the so called God whom they very rightfully already questioned what we read that God had told them by eating the Fruit in the first place. How wise they must have been, no?

And I wonder why you are now afraid to ask the question they didn't ask unless you are afraid that the truth will set you free too?

Oh, I get it. They died a spiritual death and then went on to be so blessed that they populated the earth with your very self included!

LordReed:
May many eyes be washed in the Pool of Siloam by the working of the Holy Spirit through you my dear buda.

Amen! Amen! Amen! In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ the Ever so Magnificently Wise.

LordReed:
LoLz! I always look forward to your perspective.

The perspective as given by the Power of Christ that is within, my Lord, is what I try night and day to make be seen.

sonmvayina:
There is more power in Lai Muhammad name than the fictitious Jesus....

Trust me, I know

In the olden days of Shagari, NTA, at the beginning of the News, would say something like, "100 million people watch NTA so NTA must be true", and then they would lie through the entirety of the news.

I guess that's when I understood not to trust those who say "trust me" because they just might be dressing up ficticious serpents as sheep or vice versa.

See the said posters below!

Dtruthspeaker:
No one calls Snake, a Sheep nor a thief, a Holy man, not even a 3 year old. But it is your right to be either a Snake or Sheep or a thief or Holy man. Your life, your drive.

Those who want to deceive you will dress snakes in sheeps clothes. Is it because you can't reason for yourself that you can't think they might equally dress sheep in snakes clothes to deceive you?

Yes, dt. Your life your drive, indeed.

Melvin2000:
If na Nigeria now, all these old men nor go let us hear word.

Old men in America tried to not let us hear 22-year-old Nigerian-American Steve Ezeonu too, just that he shouted louder and wisely and overcame just as you too might in Nigeria if you persevered and fought wisely till you win.
