Where did it say we should give modestly. Abeg no take bible lie.

If Christ Embassy really wants to announce what the they do like others I see around, do you think you can stand it?

You are not supposed to give for men's praise though, but it's allowed to lavish your love on the master.

datola:
Let's criticise with respect and decorum.

Gaybu:
this is not a relationship issue, but I need the opinion of Nlers asap before I do something drastic!
I'm pissed beyond words! I live alone with my mum in a 3 bedroom flat, I pay rent and I'm also the one who is responsible for running the house.

4 weeks ago, my mum called me from church and said there's this homeless boy in church she has known for a while that he sleeps anywhere night meets him that she wants to help him by accommodating him, said the boy has no family etc. Being who I am, I agreed out of pity for the poor boy. He came home and I introduced him to my neighbors as my kid bro. I gave him the 3rd room and we were all fine.... I started noticing things missing in my wardrobe, so does mum, we decided to start locking our rooms.last week I decided to enter this boy's room Lo and behold I was shocked at what I saw.... He has already set up the room as a musical studio, I saw speakers, mixers, studio mic head sets and other things I don't even know their names. I called my mum to come and see o! I asked this boy to produce the receipts of all this things or just take them out of my house.

Since 2 days now the boy has been keeping malice with me in my own house o.... Someone that I'm feeding. I've been hearing negative stories from mums church members about this boy and I'm worried I might have made a mistake. Mum is hell bent on keeping him in our house and this boy is frustrating me daily and gradually turning me into a nag!

If I cook soup, all the meat will finish that same day no matter how large the pot is. That boy is so daring! Now I've packed my bags and I've decided to stay away from the house, I told my mum to choose between him and me that she can call me back when the boy leaves my house.....

Nlers do you think I'm overreacting?? . Does anyone know how best to make him leave or how beat to convince my mum..... She's hell bent?

Daddykush:
Good evening everyone. I hope you all enjoyed your day?

I am so sorry for derailing the thread I just want to ask a serious question.

That guy that use to comment on Frontpage and ask "Do you like barbecue?" where is he?

I hope he hasn't been sold to Libya. I am scared

Threebear:
Kiss me

Wickedjezebel:
Just like your mother who delivered you from her dusty rusted gray shrunken Pusey, just like your sisters that men are forking right now and they are distributing venereal diseases ,just like your future daughters who will still be used and abused by men like you. Aimless, hopeless pig, useless, shameless fool. Idiotic baboon. Ugly chimpanzee, despised gorilla, son of a harlot and gay ,trash like monstrous creature of vile and evil. Aimless destitute.

Lothario:
The guy no just get joy

ArchangeLucifer:
Useless olosho claiming 'feminist' & deceiving gullible women that she is "working" & "hustling".

You hate on men daily but you cannot eat, sleep or wear clothes without a man.

Your entire existence depends on a man yet you have the nerve to insult men.

Just like every other 'feminist' on nairaland who took afer this wh0re, they have nothing to offer us. Just their dried up, fish-scented and venereal disease-ridden cunts.

They are the ones that claim "bosslady", "miss independent"etc on social media but they are solely dependent on men for everything.

Bloody hypocrites. Hopeless, worthless, shiftless and hilariously ignorant creatures.

I support feminism 100% now. Gender Equality is a must!

All the domestic violence, murder & aggravated assault cases this month have been perpetrated by women.

These cheap sluts have hidden under "weaker sex" for so long & must no longer be pampered.

Let them realise first hand, that without men they are nothing.

Firefire:
How can you be so shameful to deny the hands that feeds you ?

Are you no longer the Chief Resident Zone-B cum BMC of Nairaland?

Yeye dey smell.

ArchangeLucifer:
The pix is misleading.

There was someone at the other side of the road waving back.

Sarrki's vulcanizer workshop is located there.

Malolu:
I m actually getting to understand your belief systems on blood. You feel touching blood is an abomination? If it was, what role did it play in the sacrificial system in the old testament i.e. the blood of bull, Rams and the likes that were spilled for the atonement of sin? I am not Jesus, neither am I God, but I have previously stated God's mind as required with the misuse of blood in relation with idolatry, immorality and even witchcraft. I do not wanna repeat myself. Any other questions asides blood?
Do have a splendid day my friend.

1stflight:
both nkembaby and malolu that you quoted above have made valid points in earlier posts.

nkembaby008:
I knew that was the scripture you would quote because that somehow, absolves them of the guilt, of pretty much murdering people. "Oh well, the light got brighter". Since the light can still get brighter at any time they deem fit, don't you think it's logical to let certain things that are not written in black and white to be left to people's consciences?

In Leviticus 17:15, if you ate a dead animal that had not been bled, you only had to bathe till evening and be clean. Also in Matthew 12:3-7 and Matthew 12:11, preserving life took precedence over strict law keeping. Blood is a symbol of life, why should the symbol be more important than the life itself?

Malolu:
I am sorry to say. Comma doesn't speak anything from God, HIS word does!!!! Comma was created by man. God didn't use comma when he spoke to Moses! He spoke what needed to be done and not done as children of God. I don't really get involve in such arguments tho but it's better to share your thoughts as laid down by the help of His Spirit just as the Eunuch was helped.

I rest my case.

Nicejay30:
what scripture pls...
Did he also talk about the prostitute if so pls show me...

nkembaby008:
I thought you said the cards are never passed and have to be requested, now you're asking whether the congregation was forced to sign it? Next thing you'll say its optional meanwhile people have been disfellowshipped for taking blood.

Let me ask you sef, why are blood fractions allowed now? Its still blood isn't it? It's like saying I can't drink hot chocolate but I can drink milk, milo, sugar and hot water separately? How does that even make the slightest sense? People died because blood fractions weren't allowed years back and now they are allowed? So will Jehovah ask for their blood from the Governing body since they more or less caused their death?

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
Sorry about that. The reference is John not Luke.
John 14:8-18.

tosyne2much:
The man no let me talk wey him just dey whoz me oooo

saintmark88:
Yeah he is.....as the heaven is far from the earth so r his ways far from our ways......understanding God, his ways in entirety, esp as it regards 3=1 is practically impossible, cos human understanding cannot comprehend

Well I know that by nature they are equal, by authority they aren't.

saintmark88:
Again I said blood =life.....Christ shed his blood for u....even asked u to drink his blood......

"From wat I understand, giving of blood is necessary to save a dying person or a person who wld die if not given blood. "...... So u understand this..,so y is it church against it n all entirety.....

tosyne2much:
Mine goes this way.

I paid a courtesy visit to this girl I was crushing on who always accused me of being uncaring and all that.

We were both in the sitting room kissing and smooching passionately and we got carried away, oblivious of the fact that her dad already drove in, unannounced and knocked on the door
.
.

The AC was on and we were both sweating profusely. She hurriedly took few text books littered on the dinning table so it would seem as if we were rubbing minds together in solving some questions.

As the man stepped in, he saw me on the table sweating profusely with my shirt unbuttoned and she explained to her that I actually came to help her out with her maths.

I greeted the clever man who shook his head and entered into his room without uttering any word. Few minutes later, he called and sent her on an errand just to deal with me.

Immediately she stepped out, he came out of his room and began to interrogate me. Before I knew it, he landed a slap on my face and quietly[b] tortured me like a terrorist.

My people, na love clear for my eyes ooo


Over to you guys

nkembaby008:
wowww! I'm sorry but if you don't know this then you haven't been a JW for a long time. I was 7 years old when the cards were passed at the book study(that used to be done at brother's houses) and there was a child one as well that was filled by my mum and the book study co-ordinator but my dad stopped us from using it.So I'm not speculating, it's my experience.

Malolu:
Yeah I already quoted the same verse. You seem to be complicating those verses which shouldn't actually be. Yes God gave us right to kill those things BUT we should stay away from EATING it's blood..People drink and consume it's blood in the Bible as it is clear for devilish, defiling and idolatry purposes. I think that's clear in simple English.

saintmark88:
God is a mystery, no !an can fully understand him........but I know there is God the Father , God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
The bible made me understand that....I also know there is one God not three....to man three cannot be equal to one...well for God everything is possible, nothing is impossible... The Bible has only given us a hint

Let us make man
Baptise in the na!e of the Father, Son and Holy spirit
Thomas:My Lord and my God
Elisabeth...why does the mother of My God come to me....

Malolu:
hi David, I recommend you look at the biblical explanation of that which I already made to msheddy about the issue of blood. We don't pick things out of context when it comes to God's word. It leads to errors. Of course a lot of people have references to their doctrines and believe, for instance some believe you must never where shoes to the presence of God. God actually told Moses that, which is true for some reasons which is true and more than what people guess the reason is...dirt and all..but that's not it..well that's off topic. But it's related. I do not wanna repeat the already said statement about blood. kindly check my reply with msheddy. If what u think the scriptures says is stay off blood, y do we kill chicken, ram all of meat o..and even fish that has blood..are we not touching d blood already?

nkembaby008:
ahh don't lie now. How can you say they are not compelled when the elders give the cards to you to sign? and they in turn sign as witnesses?

saintmark88:
Didn't u say life =blood.....if u change mouth der....abi u won change mouth....oya everybody watch this guy twist it again.....Christ shed his blood for u to have life....and u say sacrificing ur blood for another to have life is a sin??

Malolu:
Oh DavidEsq, I get your point. The vision has nothing to do with democracy. Note the places I capitalized.. Actually the stone has been the revealed to be the Church..that is the body of Christ. The same body that will be occupying the new heaven and Earth(the new realm) where that "tree of life can now be found again after it had been hidden from fallen man in Eden.
