mollie12: 1 Corinthians 9:14 - "Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel".

Even though several 'men of God' have abused the ministry of money collections and exploited it for their selfish purpose, we would be operating in almost the same level of error to label every pastor that collect tithes a thief.

Pastors request for money collections to support the aspects of ministry (church maintenance, outreach projects, etc) and to also support themselves. Yep, you heard that right. THE OFFERINGS ARE TO SPENT BY THE PASTORS. That is what operated in the Levitical era. The grey area - which is where, I believe, ethics and morality should come into play - is HOW MUCH money should they spend on themselves. If the church gives an offering of $1 million, does that mean they should splurge on a Ferrari or some other luxury piece of property? That is the real issue we should be dealing with as a church, not whether we should make money offerings or not. Most of the time, people singing this "don't pay tithes" thing are not really seeking the mind of God but just want to pursue their own selfish agenda, and keep all their money to themselves.
Notice I'm doing my best to steer clear of the 'tithe' label. That's because the tithing requirement of the law, as far as I've been able to read in the Bible, was fulfilled in Christ. But money collections for servants in the Lord's vineyard was never removed and will always continue till the end of time.

My dear, offering is enough! Do u know what tithe is? Pls do d maths. Na food e come chop for dis life. Shebi man doesn not live by bread alone?

Ulueme Frank: You cleverly say you do not want to be a single mother which in every truth is bad for you, but remamber also that the rout you have taken is not only going to lead you to a single mother syndrome but could also claim your life, ask your parents if they are still alive.

No, shes got supporters who "love" her so much. She can enjoy the rhythm while it lasts; for sooner than later, she will get the full dose of whatever she has subscribed for. Two wrongs has never, can never and will never make a right. The family is obviously heading for doom and she stands to lose out cos even her children could forgive their dad but might never forgive her for this obviously disgusting and shameful act.

3. Look the surrounding well (if u don comot for obodo Naija before) u go see am say e no resemble Naija amawe Lagos.

Nashville: You guys should be real for once. Two people are involved in a marriage and they should both take the blame if it fails - it is not always the man's fault.

I will first of all address the issue at hand. That women is cheating - simple. Any relationship you have with the opposite gender that you know your spouse would not approve of is cheating. You dont have to sleep together to start cheating. She is emotionally cheating on her husband.

And it is sooo easy for such a women to use her husband as an excuse. Cheating is cheating. By the time she is finished flirting with another man, she would find faults in everything her husband does so he will be the scapegoat.

Bottomline, men cheat and women cheat. And cheating is a choice. No one forces you to cheat and there is never a good reason to cheat. Just last week, my wife just booked a family holiday for easter saying we hadnt gone away for a while. I agreed and I refunded her the money because I realise we hadnt gone away at all this year and needed time to spend together. That is what a sensible woman should do and not resort to talking to other men!

No one is perfect, if your husband isnt doing enough of romantic stuff, why cant you bring it up? Anything wrong in a woman planning a family trip or even dinner? Cheating is a choice, never blame your spouse for it!

To me, this answers it all. QED!

You should have just told Nigerians that if elected; you wish to inject everyone with a virus that would eat-up their brains in order to build a country full of morons. Go do your campaign in Gh*n*

yuzedo: NO!!!!! Only English are important. Is a this-grace dat dey still teaches Maths in skoool. dey shud change to Quantitative. Nobody need Algibra, calculux, aritmetick, geometri, etc to progrees in life. Just open shop in Alaba. Hope dis helps, cheers.

Your command of your much cherished "English" is second to none! I doubt if any mathematician would murder English the way you just did. English Lover!

blayz0923: You spoke my mind.
I hardly see core muslims serve in the south, south east/west. I stand to be corrected. In the wake of d BH issue, n d fact dat NYSC relevance has been put to question, I would suggest northerner serve in d north n southerners in d south, till we come to truly realise wat unity is all about. Still, I stand to be corrected

You need not be corrected...for u are spot-on!

el bin manny: What does it take for the govt to ensure that, people from Naijanistan (Northern Nigeria ) are made to serve within that area, but not in their states of origin
They stnd a better chance cos they understand the language, culture etc!
And they will know the no-go areas better than ppl from other regions!!!

2nded!

She will outgrow it. I sincerely can't explain why she chooses to do what she does but I have seen many babies behave same way and end up shocking everyone with a sudden change for the better. She is only 11 months old. She will surely change for the better my dear.
