ElsonMorali:
Obviously you don't understand the question.

Read it in light of your last response that I quoted before this one. Thank you.

.
You are just replying everyone with nothing tangible to show for.

FREEWILL was given to MAN and his life actions sometimes will be as a result of his actions. you either accept it or keep being ignorant.

CeeKay17:
Exactly. How can you regret something you obviously knew it was going to happen? Unfortunately some people just choose to follow religion blindly!

That's it bro, some people are stuck in the shell they fail to open their minds.
When it comes to matter of life and death they will say its destiny.

Ask them about that their uncle or brother who is broke jobless and has no penny. if its the will of God for him to remain like that?
and you will hear them tell you tales of how their uncle is lazy or a womanizer or this and that (free will).

Its only in matters of life and death, religious people agree its Fate playing it. The hypocrisy stinks!

ElsonMorali:
Assuming you're walking on a street, then I come over and stab you in the heart.

Could God have rescued you?

If yes, why didn't he?

If no, does that mean he's powerless to stop me from stabbing you?

Your question is out of line. rephrase it to align with the subject topic. thank you.

ElsonMorali:
I guess you're trying to make an allegory here.

You can't compare God's thinking with an imaginary or real human being.

We may not know why things happen because we can't see into the future, but God who is in the future as we speak allows His will to be done to achieve whatever end He pleases.

Everything that has happened, is happening and will happen in future are all encompassed in God's Knowledge and His Will.

Not evrrything is Gods will Mr!

The problem with equating everything to Gods will is that it throws away FREE WILL.
We were made in the IMAGE and LIKENESS of GOD. If you don't understand what an image is, think of it as a computer inage(iso). Where you rip contents of a CD and store into a flash.

Although the medium storing the content is different, but the content is the same. If your God isn't a robot why would you think Man has no free will


In genesis 6, the Bible says God saw the wickedness in mans heart and he was greiveing that he created man.

Now will you say God never knew Man would bring him so much pain? If I decide to go by your analogy of saying everything is his will, then what do you make of that verse of God regretting creating man?

Our God knows everything, he knows the starting and ending point, the summary is he knows the consequences of your actions he just DOESNT IMPOSE them.
In your words, everything is encompassed in his knowledge but not in his will

If everything's is playing according to Gods will, why would God have regretted creating man?
Why would the disciples have gone to preach salvation for man to choose?

Simple, we were born with the power of FREEWILL. some of our life actions is as a result of FREE WILL, QED!

This brings us back to one of the most debated topics by philosophers, theologians etc
FREE WILL VS DESTINY


I have said it countless times, when someone dies its usually attributed to Gods will.

But when it comes to financial matter. Gods will is thrown away. Why don't you apply the same destiny and agree that no matter how much some people hustle they will for ever remain poor?

But no, they choose to equate destiny to matters of life and death, but when it comes to making money they scream at the man & label him lazy for not working hard enough, refusing to apply the same school of thought that maybe it was destined for him to poor? :-)


I want to say not every thing is Gods will, we were not made robots!!!

God gave us the power of free will. The Garden of eden had the tree of knowledge but it wasn't Gods will that man should eat it however man was given free will and man disobeyed God and ate it and so received punishment.

If everything in life is attributed to Destiny then its safe to say Hell is a foolish idea, because some people has been destined by God to go there from. Now does that make sense to you to say everything is destined?


Its only in matters of death, you hear christian chorus in unison that its Destiny but in other spheres of life, they begin to apply the wisdom of FREE WILL.
:-)

Some deaths are not destined by God. Some happen because of our free will choices, if I smoke everyday and die of lung cancer it would be foolish of anybody to attribute it to Gods will. I died because of my own CHOOSING.

Likewise if someone returns from a club drunk and high on weed and ram into a kid with his car standing by the road side, will you say that kids death is Gods destiny playing out?

Not everything in life is Gods destiny playing, sometimes its our Free will choice he has given us.

Our prayer should be that our FREE WILL choices ALIGN with GODS PLAN DESTINED for our lives.

#FREE WILL VS DESTINY, :-)

I hate this guy for PES 2017 ehn..



Him too strong...

which club I'm dey for pes 17?

story story, how do you want to nab someone on Nairaland who uses a wierd moniker.

Moreso, before you go for any job interview be sure to deactivate all your social media accounts that's if you use your full name to register.

From time to time, go on google search for your phone number used in a CV, or your full name then erase any incriminating history.


If an employer uses Google to fish you out, trust me you are dull!

Junior66:
That snake is no python. We kill it often in my area and we have never for once seen a python around. That is the largest size that snake can get.

exactly what I was thinking.

it looks more like a Puff adder. short and thick.

I doubt its a Python still.

Ishilove:
The time for gifts has not yet reached. Go empty handed since this is the first time. Study them, appraise their environment then strategise for subsequent visits

actually he does needs to go with something to show intent, its in the Igbo traditional way :-)

Typically a carton of drink will do. I don't recommend giving cash atalls. The drink is not to show that you are wealthy, it just to show "amam ihe" ie wisdom.

I am speaking from my several exoeriences as an Igbo boy. That drink shows an intent as it is done in the Igbo land.

Dude you are going there not for "iku aka". just to meet the parents and let them know your intentions. they nay or may not accept you, so this is not the time to throw money around.

First check if her parents take alcohol if they do, you can buy a carton of alcoholic wine and go there. If they dont get a non alcoholic wine.
Its just a first meeting. if you start by spending very huge amount you will set a very High standard that you may not be able to maintain.


so be humble go with just a carton of wine and seek her parents consent first. They will tell you either to go ahead or forget about their daughter.

The more this woman responds to criticism the more she gives us reasons to question her decision.

In all, I know that even in the 48laws of power, Free lunch is utterly despise.

Edimogb:
madam the is no free gift in nature, the is always a hidden motive to every free gift and are d most costly in life.

Very true
Even the 48 laws of power strongly advises against accepting free lunch.

The wedding will be low key but very classy. weekdays most peeps would be at work, so lesser people at the venue.

einsteine:
Why would you pick Mane over Messi? Messi ad Ronaldo would always be there by default.

Mane was very good last season. This season, not so much. Those 10 goals he scored were propped up by goals against spartak moscow, porto and maribor. Firmino was better. Lots of people here are judging by the final. Just one match.

a footballer is good as his last match. The three Liverpool forward ought to be there. Messi didn't do so much to break in.

its like having iniesta always in FIFA 11. sometimes these nominations are done on personal likeness, without being biased, at just a quarterfinal level messi didn't do enough to merit the nomination. Mane should be there. This season should be one of messi under performing season in the last 8yrs in champions league

why not, in an era where M.I is beckoning on rappers to fix up their lives. Sinzu is the new spice. He has the
- Flow
- Aura
- Swagged up
- got fans

He may not deliver the hardest punchline, but sinzu raps are so enjoyable to the ear, his flows gives an Eargasmic feeling

That tells you Karma assumption is bulllshitt.

Its okay not to believe in it, but that don't mean it don't work

if you want to have a healthy heart and a sound mind, please try and resist the temptation of checking a woman's phone...

I swear down, the things you can find in her inbox will raise your BP to 180! Your adrenaline will pump like it hasnever been pumped before scrolling through her messages.

1x2x3:
What if the guy is her Karma for the guys she played till she turned 34?

Then thats karma well served, okey too will also get his own share of karma.

What goes around, comes around.

BlackManta:
Mane is not there
The person that made this list took oshogbo weed.

Mane scored 10 goals and 4 assist, including a hatrick in round of 16.

Mane is the joint second highest goalscorer with Salah.

Give a good reason why he shouldn't be there

Messi over Mane is a big fraud.

How did Messi get in there

I am a Barcelona fan. and yes j agree with you. I will pick mane over messi. to me , messi didn't do enough to merit a place in the squad, lots of attackers did very well.

If mane was white, I am sure he would make the list

Nike air force $90? Una dey lie o

Sneakers wey we rock tire for secondary school almost a decade now.
Majority of the boiz who played Bball had it, the sneakers come be like slippers coz we dey even use am play ball self when boot no dey.

Nike Air force 1 was so common and overused then in sec.school, boiz had to upgrade to wearing Jordan's or air max and this is bout 10yrs ago. That sneakers no fit be $90 in 2018

these ones ma rubbish for true core fans.

When toress scored that final goal against barca in the UCL that killed all hope of qualifications. I was so close to smashing the glass cup I had on my hand on a wall.

I went home feeling dejected, sad didn't talk to my girl for 3days (caused a rift tho)

Football to me is more than just win or lose, the passion behind it is very intense.
Not to talk about Barcelona. Its not called Mes que in club for no reason Its a movt!

The only thing uniting people together even enemies is football

NIGHTMARE0O7:
Pls let's stop celebrating mediocrity its getting annoying..
This falz copy-copy don too much.
Thats how he copied Drake's "WORST BEHAVIOR" track too and also kanye west Track.
Must our musicians always do attache by force to foreign musicians ?

You are so quick to vent that you ended up sounding ignorant and foolish. If you are not up-to-date with the happenings in the music industry, why not ask.

Musicians all over the world do "Cover" on popular songs, I was just watching beauty and beast by Ariana Grande and John Legend, a beautiful cover of the original song by Celine Dion.

Adele's Hello had so many covers from Praiz, to Omawunmi to John Legend etc. Its legally accepted as long as props is given to the original singer which Falz did.

Its a cover bro!
Its a fuc.king cover!!!
Stop being stupid because its a Cover!!!
Doing cover is legal and accepted!!!

This is imminent, every year leading to the election year always comes with panic and uncertainty. The budget in Nigeria is always passed late, so I wonder why people feel its a buhari problem.

Political uncertainty affects the stock market, which will affect exchange rate and possibly inflationary rates.
If i were you I would stop complaining and start saving dollars, the fight has begun, let's see how much CBN is willing to defend the naira with the buoyant reserves they have.

TBills investors hang in tight, our rates may jack up a little soon

The complainers and ignorant ones should keep shouting Buhari, APC!

Super sub

Hhenryy:
But that's dirty and shouldn't be encouraged, it kills the fun and thrill of the game, football is not a combat sport.

Story!
Go and tell zuniga who killed Neymars hope at the world cup, by kicking him at his back with his knee and left them exposed to Germany's thrashing 7-1

Ramos observing the 48laws of power like a boss.

The trouble in the team was attributed to the presence of salah, As the captain and the leader of the team, it was his Job to either mark him out or take him out.

of all the countries to go to, na Thailand she go for Honey moon? Na wa, I rather go to Ghana than stay at Thailand, see the dirty water she posed in front of.

if you are working, try to save money and invest in something. Most preferably. invest in a cash yielding asset.

Buy a shop and rent it out.
buy a flat and rent it out.
buy a land and lease it out to a farmer.
buy a govt debt instruments and take yields monthly/annually.

Buying and selling isn't always rosy, sometimes you could lose millions in one bad business deal.

Invest Invest Invest no matter how small the profit is !!!

A shop that gives you 400,000 naira annually is better than nothing.
At Balogun market, some shop owners earn as high as 2m/yr.

At least it can take care of certain home expenses while you use your salary to advance yourself through trainings&certfs

Cheers
