Lied how?
Kobojunkie:
So what you are saying is that, Jesus Christ, the one who outright told you that your marriages have nothing to do with God's Kingdom, lied? undecided
Christianity Etc › Re: Debo Adeleye: Why You Should Not Marry For Sex (Video) by derecho(m): 7:50pm On Feb 25, 2022
Marriage is deeper than you know, friend. Marriage is dear to God that the relationship between Christ and the Church is an example. Paul even regarded it a mystery.
Kobojunkie:
Who send this man dey preach about marriage in God's name though? undecided

Jesus Christ said your marriages are of this world and not of the Kingdom of God - Luke 20 vs 34 - 36 - so why would anyone who ìs a follower of Jesus Christ preach or give advice on marriage in His name? undecided

Friend, we interpret things differently.
No doubt it was ,and maybe still, a man's world but the wise women influenced their home I'm glad you're a lover of Christ and I'm sure you're aware that a wise woman builds her home while the foolish plucks it down.No matter how mad a man is, he realizes the improvement that comes his way if the wife is good and submissive. I don't know your experience but I know,in the past, women returned to their parents when the marriage is unbearable and their husbands who realize their worth go with their family to "beg" for them to return.

It was a shame in the past for a woman not to be wise enough to live with/ influence her husband. Those who were properly raised endured and enjoyed marriage.

Many beautiful poems were written to praise our mothers and they were often rewarded by their children. Can we say the same about girls of nowadays? Who want to run away at any slight misunderstanding. You take them abroad to enhance their lives, they divorce you.

They want to be married and loved BUT hate the word submission.

I don't want to sound as if all present day girls are bad or ill mannered But it's difficult to honestly praise girls Proverbs 31:30
Simran94:
Bitter? LOL, I am only stating what I learnt from some of these same women who are now grandmothers in this present day. Many of them didn’t have a choice than to stay.
You should try to make researches on your own before coming to conclusions.
Celebrities › Re: Sammie And Ozioma Okposo Vacation In Mexico (Photos, Video) by derecho(m): 10:14pm On Feb 24, 2022
Simran94:
Very wrong. Our mothers had no choice, they obviously couldn’t go back to their father’s houses because their fathers told them to go back to their husband’s houses. It had nothing with being smart, majority of our mothers remained in toxic marriages where their husbands beat them on a daily basis and a lot of them have died in the process, why didn’t they leave? Where they being smart too?

The fear of leaving especially not knowing the fate that would become of their children is the sole reason why many of our mothers remained in their marriages with serial cheats and wife-beaters as husbands. Will a mother of four or five children in the olden days leave her husband’s house with them to her father’s house just because he sleeps around or he beats her up every now and then? How will the children fare? You need to ask mothers and grandmothers that have experienced such why they decided to remain in that marriage and you will get the same response from all of them.

Our mothers took a lot of bullshits and were made to believe that they were more like slaves to their husbands and that their sole responsibility was to “bare children” nothing else.
Not entirely true, friend. You sound bitter.
I won't say much but will use the analogy of true Christians who are considered fools by those who don't understand them. Do they have pains? O Yes
Do they want to do what others do? Of course.
They understand what they've accepted.

Try to study those women and you'll learn a lot from them.

Though, you have some points. But pray you don't meet a merciless person who is stronger than you. Make e no be you go end up for hospital. The best thing to do is find an ally that is stronger than your enemy then fight if you need to fight. No be by "you go kill me today"..person wey pass you pass you o
PENISgod:
Russia is mad and Ukrainian military are fools...
This is exactly what Russia wants, to negotiate terms that would favour them and not the Ukrainians..
All this nonsense is happening because the Ukrainians are afraid to fight back and Russia has capitalised on that fear.. Trust me if Ukraine say "4uck it, since it's war you want, it's war you'll get" and takes the war too to the Russians, rain fire too on Russian cities and infrastructure and make them feel the heat of the war, I'm very sure the Russians would back down because they too deep down don't want war. It's the fear the Ukrainians are displaying that is giving them confidence..

These guys literally share the same boarder with Russia and are busy playing defensive waiting for the U.S and CO before they can make any decisions for themselves.. I don't think these guys really value and deserve their freedom.. Don't they have jets to send to Russian territory too to rain bombs on Russian cities and infrastructure too? Don't they have troops, tanks, armoured vehicles and missiles to send across to Russia too? Can't they take the war to Russia too to make them feel the heat of the war too? Ukrainians are just busy

suffering, bearing the full casualties and cost of the war while Russians are in the comfort of their homes relaxing with reckless abandon, not even acting like their country is at war... At least the Ukrainians too should take the war to them too and make these guy feel some of the heat too...all these their defensive attitude will only make the Russians more relaxed and confident...

Omo, me I don't like fight ohh, but if I see say I don beg you, beg you tire you no wan hear, even though you are stronger than me, thunder go fire you because one of us must be hospitalised... Nonsense

Go and eat...and no need to call someone an idiot to make your point.
First, if you see a search warrant can you identify an authentic one?
Forget the noise of the girl, she knows they'd be lenient with her.

Secondly, do they have those illicit stuffs with them?
Yes, things should be done in a professional way but why become aggressive if you are innocent?

You seem not to understand Jesus.
You may check Paul confirming Jesus' stance in 1Corinthians 7:10-11
Besides, did you notice "Moses permitted" ?
Romanoff:
Yes. But Jesus agreed to Moses' teaching on the subject in verse 32.
Celebrities › Re: Sammie And Ozioma Okposo Vacation In Mexico (Photos, Video) by derecho(m): 10:18am On Feb 24, 2022
Romanoff:
Matthew 5:32.

That was Jesus speaking. Not Moses.

I refuse to believe infidelity is a hard time.

If it was the woman who committed the infidelity, will you be saying all of these?
Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so" -Matthew 19: 8

If you understood my last reply, you won't say the italicized.
Celebrities › Re: Sammie And Ozioma Okposo Vacation In Mexico (Photos, Video) by derecho(m): 9:39am On Feb 24, 2022
Go and study your Bible my sister.Jesus didn't permit divorce on any ground. Moses did because of the hardness of men's heart.
Bad times includes things that will test your love(as a man) and submission (as a lady) not only sickness or poverty.
Romanoff:
So bad times includes infidelity?

Bad times are things like sickness, brokeness, and down times, not infidelity please.

In short, infidelity is so bad that it's the only ground Jesus allows for divorce in a marriage.
Celebrities › Re: Sammie And Ozioma Okposo Vacation In Mexico (Photos, Video) by derecho(m): 9:31am On Feb 24, 2022
Though I don't support infidelity in marriage but have you asked yourself
1.How they met?
He might have met her as a philanderer.

2.Did she marry him only for the good times?


You may think our mothers were stupid and sheepish but I believe they are wiser than many girls of nowadays.
Mind you,Going away with the kids may not be as easy as you think.
It is better to look before you leap.Marriage no be play
Romanoff:
I kind of feel it's best to leave a cheating partner, especially if they do it all of the time.

The kids are watching and they will think it's how men are spos to behave.

My neighbor is a serial cheat, he cheated on his wife when she was very Ill and was even bringing his lovers into their matrimonial home.

This woman died even after she had gotten well, e no go pass high BP wey kill her because of her husband's infidelity.

If she had left, she'd have still been alive to raise her kids.

Now the man has sent all the kids to boarding schools and has moved on, guess what?

He's still womanizing and it's not even been 6 months since his wife died.

So na food be your problem?
I once listened to a girl who boasted about how her mum manipulated her dad with food.
I just told her NOT every man is like your dad

Some don't even know that some men are better cook. So what will you do to those men?I understand some men were not properly raised and lack self-control .That's why any woman who can cook for them is a wife material.
Her ability to cook should be an icing on the cake.

Well, you can easily tell a man's value by what he says. How can a girl's ability to cook be the most important thing to you as a man? When you no be Esau?

That means every buka wey you go and dia food sweet, you don see wife be dat?

Not even Character or wisdom... Na wa for some men.

Neddstark:
Guy, sex with many women no dey affect person destiny. Except the sex brings disease or attachment to the wrong things or you straff witch. You dont want to know about the sex life of big guys. Very very dirty, abi you see Dangote yansh last year. A certain big boy I know does threesomes every weekend. Mostly different girls. Sexis better than substance abuse. Loose sexual lifestyle is not good but the thing they preach in church that it ties your destiny with all your sex partners, I don't believe it.

The way some people just throw up statistics baffles me.
And some naive people will come and say it's true.
The Op should just say, 70% of my friends had their first sex with prostitutes.

The assertion can't be true.Never!!
As rotten as Nigeria is, young men don't need to patronize prostitutes.Except what he meant by prostitute is different.

Apart from how nauseating and shameful it is to patronize prostitutes,many impressionable young men would rather opt for younger girls in their schools or neighborhood than risk going to a brothel.

It takes a rotten young man who is shy to woo his classmate to even think of a brothel.

Finally,
I pity ladies who believe all these fictitious nonsense about men.Most men want to do what they are proud of. An unregenerated man or unprincipled young man would rather boast about sleeping with 70 girls in their school or neighborhood than boast about sleeping with 150 prostitutes.

No. It's just his opinion. Did you see the comments of some igbos on this forum? One doesn't need to be Igbo to know that's not generally acceptable culture in igboland.

His target is Africa and he knows Chinua Achebe's THINGS FALL APPART is read all over the world, so he wanted to use Ikemefuna's story to defend his opinion.

It's just like the general saying in Ilesa, everyone calls the king father but when it's dusk, the king knows his biological children.

Africans generally carter for kids who aren't theirs but they also don't play with paternity.
BJanta:
I quite agree with you and especially appreciate your civil approach to it. What I mean is that he must have acquired that understanding from the Ibo culture , being an Iboman. And I've heard it said before.
Celebrities › Re: Ugezu: Doing DNA Test Not African, A Child That Calls African Man Father Is His by derecho(m): 7:09pm On Feb 21, 2022
I don't think this has to do with illegitimate children.

Maybe some clans permit taking in other people's children especially if they were born out of wedlock. I think the father of the lady takes the children as his.

But generally it's un-African to do what the Actor is saying. He is only advocating for men NOT to do DNA as he believes it's tearing families apart.

That said, change your mindset and don't assume what you don't know.The Actor maybe of the Igbo extraction but not speaking for igbos... Remember,a similar thread like this sometime ago.It was a Yoruba actor that advocated against it.Won't it be stupid to say "that is how Yorubas do"? Or say it's understandable since Yoruba ladies are promiscuous...why bother?

Let's share knowledge without insulting others.
BJanta:
That's definitely in Iboland where there're no illegitimate children, not in all Africa or any other part of Nigeria .
Celebrities › Re: Ugezu: Doing DNA Test Not African, A Child That Calls African Man Father Is His by derecho(m): 6:41pm On Feb 21, 2022
Friend, it's not about money.It borders on trust. I understand the woman can feel slighted but if a man is unfortunate to marry these ladies without value for marriage. I don't see anything wrong with secretly conducting DNA. Forgiveness is a different matter but it's important to know the Truth.
laiperi:
I think the Op is taken literally.

In this day of women's lib. with prosmicuity embedded, a man may need DNA test. One of Bill Cosby children that was not his threatened to sue him because she was not getting enough money after she had tuition fees, vacation once a year and spending money.

Cosby had to resort to DNA test.

Again, the Op is right literally because if you are well off, your brothers and sisters children call you Dad. Even househelps in the same compound call you Dad. We also have big Dad and small Mummy. Sometimes the kids ask: how many mums and dads do I have?

Situations have changed, money is scarce and nobody wants others' responsibilities, especially from a promiscuous woman.
