Obi1kenobi:
You're a brain-dead mooron. What is the relationship between a hairstyle and a child carrying dangerous weapons? And fellow window-licking moorons like you actually "liked" your imbecilic post. I swear this forum reveals why black people have the lowest IQ in the world and are destined to be the pits of every single society they inhabit. A lack of critical thinking and adults who treat each other like children. Tufiakwa.

I would have ignored you but so that you won't think you are wise. If you are smart or intelligent as you'll have us believe, I would have seen it in your response.
Your response gives away as an immature person and hotblooded too.
I'll advice you to learn to exercise your brain more.I wasn't expecting that simple response to be a headscratcher but I was mistaken.

However, I'll oblige you.
The idea is a child is usually considered innocent but you don't overlook the possibility of danger if he is holding something that can injure him and others.
The man you are defending may be "innocent" as a child but has the look of a criminal and a madman.
Summary,
Any semblance of danger should be checked early.Don't wait till it happens.

spinojay:
Our mentality is nothing to write home about. What business does a dreadlock has to doing with a wedding. Or is the wife complaining ? The person that refused to we'd that young man is not holier than the groom.

So it's okay if the wife is not complaining?
Unfortunately, her opinion ends in their room.Where their freedom ends is where the other man starts. Just that the world has become the way it is.Any normal girl should be ashamed to present a guy like this as a suitor because no sane in-law would overlook that nonsense hairstyle. It's a different thing if it's a deformity. But that you have the boldness to come to my house with that hairdo speaks volumes.
The girl parents suppose dey cry sef

cococandy:
Explained the morality in hair .

morality

noun
principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behaviour.

synonyms: ethics, rights and wrongs, correctness, ethicality, virtue, goodness, good behaviour, righteousness, rectitude, uprightness, morals, principles, honesty, integrity, propriety, honour, justice, fair play, justness, decency, probity, chasteness, chastity, purity, blamelessness, moral standards, moral code, principles of right and wrong, rules of conduct, ethos, mores, standards, ideals

I just lifted the above from Google.
The bolded parts can help you see the "morality" in hairdos.

If you were to talk about spirituality, it's a different ball game.

A decent person doesn't go about as an urchin.

Lightorder:
I HATE dreadlocks but the dreadman hasn’t done anything wrong here. He is an adult. Besides, he hasn’t contravened any law

The same way a child going about with a dangerous weapon should be overlooked until he wreaks havoc.
Forget what people want us to believe that it doesn't matter.It does.
In most cases, a person's decisions and what they display is a snippet of who they are inside.
The guy's hairstyle indicates who he is.
If he hasn't contravened any law, the registry won't refuse to wed him.You honestly think it's lawful to wed someone deemed mentally unstable?
All they need is ask him to prove he isn't a madman.

ElValiente:
African and ignoramus ferifera. If that's the doctor that can operate him on his sick bed will he reject him. Yeye dey smell.

How many responsible doctors you don see with that kain yeye hairstyle... Except say na babalawo.

dallyemmy:
make e nor go wed craze man

No mind dem. Later dem go come dey disturbance us say the man dey behave like craze person.
I laff wen people dey say e no mata. Of all the habits wey dey the world, na craze man lifestyle dey sweet dem. E no see oda tins copy...craze man lifestyle na im be freedom for dem.

Sonnobax15:

The same dreadlocks wey John the Baptist get for Bible . These men of God dey even dey study the bible at all self?

kindly oblige us with the verse in the Bible that says John the Baptist had dreadlocks.
Little time now, una go talk say Jesus na Itsekiri man.

So all who buy dollars deposit to dorm account? I'm sure you know not everyone does.
My point is the high rate is caused by the banks and the CBN can't claim ignorance. They know what to do to erring banks.
If the exchange rate by CBN is X-amount what stops them to ensure you buy from your bank at the stipulated amount. Why should the bank refer me to someone else? These things are not hidden.
Dorm account has little or nothing to do with dollar exchange rate.
CBN should abolish the roadside BDCs and allow only banks to issue and exchange dollars.

BCISLTD:
People buy dollars at black market rate because they have a place/ account to pay it into.

CBN should Place a no deposit on all accounts for a period and all people go withdraw or transfer to use or sell off their balance...then ban Dom accounts.

The the arbitrage stops...

It doesn't affect the common man only the rich that have benefited for the corrupt system.

Wonderful..
So the exchange rate is solely determined by CBN?
Secondly,
Will CBN refund the account owner their marginal losses? Someone bought Dollars at #570/$ and you'll convert it to #411 because you are CBN?
Do you know that most times banks won't sell you dollars but refer you to someone that sells at the black market rate?
I suggest they mandate that only banks sell dollars at their #411..Let's see if folks will go and buy at a higher price.

But why can't we buy dollars like recharge PIN sef?

Finally, I believe people are buying dollars because of international transactions not because anyone wants to destroy Naira.
Let them fix what should be fixed first.I mean things that Naira can buy before talking about Dom account. The way they are going, people go soon dey buy yam with dollars

BCISLTD:
After reading like a 100 comments I now that nigeria is doomed....very stupid people...not stopping to think.

The young suggestion is very brilliant.

Suspend all Dom accounts. Convert all their account balance value to naira using CBN rate. And inflows in dollars will be converted to naira using CBN rate...and if ur transferring outside the bank with just Convert and send.

As soon as CBN announces it...they will be a mad rush to sell.....and the price will come down....

This will give CBN full control of the naira

When asked to thank Joshua for giving him the opportunity. He replied
"Joshua didn't bring me here.. God did!!"

This is suspicious.
If this is usually done, we'll not be seeing officers like the one pouring dirty water on a corp member or people sleeping at their duty posts for bandits to enter, kill and kidnap soldiers.
Abi wetin be brutality and indiscipline?

Almost all the soldiers we know are as brutal as buratai.

Who knows, maybe just maybe this is the first time they'd be implementing their 2004 act.

UPMIKE:
Has the word of God changed?
Has God's standards changed?
I pity you sheepies .
And FYI,
I was a worker in deeper life

Then you didn't understand what Kumuyi was teaching.Anyone who grew up in deeper life knows that you were expected to search the scriptures yourself. Yes, some leaders may influence you but most challenging areas was your conviction and understanding.
Being a worker or coordinator means NOTHING. We know how some pretend and fabricate testimonies of salvation and sanctification those days.So forget, the worker tori..The major mantra in deeper life then is "...Without Holiness No Man shall see the Lord" Not sure the mantra has changed now.
It's you who know whether you are pretending or not...Pastor no be Holy Spirit.
Summary, many deeperlifers don't understand pastor Kumuyi's message. Some are there because they were born there.
Pastor Kumuyi was never the standard and he strives to let you see that you need to find God yourself.
The rules were to checkmate excesses but they soon discovered that the "Touch not, taste not..." doesn't do much but increases pretenders.

Kingstanding:
. You're a religious Christian.

Are you sure you are not describing yourself?
Christ is our focus NOT a pastor or Pope.
Read my reply again.We point men to Jesus not individuals like Pastors or Pope.

Kingstanding:
. The Bible says we should do things in a moderation. Jesus has what it takes to ride on golden chariot including his Disciples but he chooses to treked. We did not say pastors should trek but at least they should use humble car like Pope of Catholic do adviced. Nigerians will kill the truth if they know that the truth will kill their religion.

Can you tell us the kind of car the Pope uses?
And try to find out the reception given to Pope John Paul when he came to Nigeria.
I wonder why you'll be pointing pastors to The Pope instead of Jesus.

myike2:
It was by no accident that Jesus’ earthly parents were carpenters.
It was by no accident that Jesus supported his early life through carpentry.
It was by no accident that Jesus made is triumphant entry on a donkey.
It was by no accident that Jesus was fleeing when they wanted to make him King.
It was by no accident that he washed the feet if his disciples.

Despite being the ONLY son of the ALMIGHTY God, Jesus was an epitom of humility. He could have lived a lavish life on earth as the son of the most high but he did not. If the founder of Christianity (Jesus) portrayed such outstanding humility, why should it be any different for pastors who are supposed to be “FOLLOWERS” of Christ?
Matthew 6:24

Was He supposed to ride on a Lion to Jerusalem?Why was it a Triumphant entry? Bro, Take time to digest scriptures before making general statements.
I don't support ostentatious lifestyle for believers but I doubt the car belongs to kumuyi. Yes, it may not be necessary to use a limousine just as it's not necessary to board a flight from Lagos to Abuja. Kumuyi have been known to be modest so oblige him this treat.
So if na you get that limousine(for business), you no fit use am carry Pastor Kumuyi or any beloved believer?
Secondly, if Kumuyi was the President of one obscure country and he went on a visit to the White House and the official ride to take him there is a Limo, he should decline and ride a bicycle into the white House?

Make I no lie, if I get the best things of life, I won't mind blessing any true man of God especially those that have been mightily used of God.
If I can bless unbelievers , why won't I joyfully bless a Kumuyi or Gbile Akanni if they'd accept my gift?

patriotic007:
Members can own a TV but GO can own a limo?

Does the Limo belong to Kumuyi?
I'm just asking

Islam?
So predictable.

Hangmnk:
"and by 2003 he is signing the contract above for ISTL under President Olusegun Obasanjo." If the problem started way back why the bigot journalist saying irrelevant stuff like praying during work hours and speaking Hausa. Can't he write professionally, just point out the problem and leave out the hatred he has for Muslims and Hausa

When I looked at your moniker and the bolded part, I wonder if you should be taken seriously.

NO DESTRUCTION

“But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God...” Psalm 52: 8

The psalmist describes himself as an olive tree that grows green in the house of God.

One characteristic of the olive tree is that it can survive damage.

It may be burnt or cut down, but Botanists say that if there is a strand of the root of an olive tree, it will grow again.

Even if an axe is used in bringing it down, once there is still a root, growth is inevitable.

Other trees may go down finally when they are cut down, but for the olive tree, it is not final.

Beloved, you are like an olive tree that cannot be destroyed.

You have the anointing of survival, and whatever comes against you, you will survive.

No matter how hard your enemies fight you, you will survive.

No matter how fierce the battles against you become, you won’t be destroyed.

When men think you are finished, you will show up in grand style.

When men think they have taken you out, you will stage a mega comeback.

Your life is hid in Christ, and Christ in God, and no harm shall pull you down.

No attack on your health will lead to your death.

No financial constraint will put you out of circulation.

No conspiracy of the enemy will lead to your downfall.

No policy of people in power will cut short your progress.

Just like the attacks on the olive tree do not lead to its destruction, the attacks on you won’t destroy you.

Stop fretting on account of your adversaries and attacks.

Stop breaking your head on account of people who have taken the responsibility of pulling you down.

They may try, but they will certainly not succeed.

They may fight you, but they will never win.

They shall gather, but their gathering will come to nothing.

Even when they wound you, their wounds won’t be lethal.

Even when they throw their arrows at you, you will survive.

Live with the confidence of one who is not vulnerable to the enemy.

Put on the whole armour of God, and you will withstand every attack of the enemy.

Remember, you are like the olive tree; you can’t be destroyed.

2 Corinthians 4: 8-9 says: “8. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9. Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;”

Declaration: I am like an olive tree that cannot be destroyed, in Jesus mighty name. Good day, have a blissful Sunday

Kindly watch his speech again...
It was at the Book Launch of Kumuyi: A Defender of The Faith.
I think he said "Pentecost task Not Tax"
He was referring to the life of Apostles written down in the acts of the Apostles.

Make una sofri dey find traffic.

Modified: He actually said TAX.
Howbeit he was talking about the sacrifices every preacher must undergo....not cash

I don leave am when I realized he can't appreciate basic scriptural truths.
However, he wasn't my focus (as usual whenever i comment online) but the people he's/ others are trying to delude on this forum.
But I don mark am sha except he comes with a different moniker.

Omoluabi16:
If only you knew. That junkie fellow just quotes the bible. He is not a christian. I would desist from any further arguments if I were you.

I just realized... Not just this anyways. Atleast from your responses.

Kobojunkie:
These statement here make no sense of any kind to this discussion. Again,..

Then you don't understand the Bible.
If you do, you'll understand that simple statement. Jesus, the word of God, said so from the Old testament to the New Testament.
Everyone who reads the Bible knows this basic truth.

Kobojunkie:
Here's what I have been saying and continue to mean in simpler terms
I have made no attempts to explain any of this away.. .. simply made clear that what Jesus Christ said is Truth and nothing but the Truth of God.

Summary,
Your trying to explain it away is unnecessary.
Homosexuality is a sin.

Kobojunkie:
I suggest you reread my response so you carefully digest what is said before you respond again.... I don't understand this confusion here.

Kindly go and re-read Matthew 5:27-28 to understand what Jesus was saying.
He, came to give clearer meaning to the Law.
In this case, He is saying " you were limiting it to the physical act BUT it starts from your lustful look, the intention ".
I honestly don't get your point.
Are you saying, a lesbian or gay doesn't lustfully look at their partner before the sexual act? Or that lesbianism or homosexuality is not a sin?
Do you think those nonsense are not premeditated?
So you didn't read Romans 1:28-31 which says " it's because they refuse to retain God in their understanding, that's why He gave them a reprobate mind to do what's no convenient "?
You explanation is not necessary. It's a simple matter, Every SIN is premeditated. Every action is preceded by an intention.
Ignorance of what is evil doesn't fully absolve you of SIN.
The issue of other SINful acts will be addressed BUT let it be clear THAT Homosexuality is a NO-NO and should not be encouraged.
Every gay needs help

Kobojunkie:
Righteous judgement has to do with judgement that is based on God's Law, and not man's law and definitions.

For instance, God's Law, Jesus Christ, stipulates that sexual sin is the lust in one's heart - Matthew 5 vs 27 - 32 - not sexual acts. Homosexuality refers to the sexual act , and so by God's Law not a sin.

Instead the lust that typically precedes such sexual act is sin. And this same of lust in one's heart, is the same sin that even virgins, masturbators, fornicators, rapists, etc., are likely to be found guilty of.

Can you oblige us with judging "righteously"?
Besides, how has your response shown that homosexuality is not CONDEMNABLE?
In case you think " righteousness " is a big word, it simply means "being RIGHT according to The Word of God"
Even a person who doesn't read the Bible knows homosexuality is NOT RIGHT... So what exactly is your point?

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ is the Word of God and He is the one who commands that you judge righteously . If you don't know and accept that, you don't know Him nor do you live by Him but instead by the words out of your own mouth. Learn what it means to Trust Him and obey Him.

Phoenix999:
Nairaland MODS, how the hell did this post promoting illegality get to FP??

This Deviant posted this aberration and you guys pushed it to FP... are Nairaland Mods now paid to promote illegality or what??

Seun, and others you are hereby referred to rule 9. KINDLY CLOSE THIS THREAD FOR PROMOTING SAME SEX MARRIAGE and in extension illegality.

SECTION 5 AND SECTION 6 OF THE SAME SEX MARRIAGE PROHIBITION ACT 2013 is instructive!!!

NAIRALAND SHOULD NOT BE USED TO PROMOTE CRIMINALITY.

The funny thing is, most homosexuals will not admit that it's an anomaly.
To think some would still love to adopt children is unbelievable.
I know it's a big challenge that stem from wrong exposure to sex and the interference of wrong spirits.
Unfortunately, we live in a world where the madman wants you to adopt their fashion as long as the madman can converse in English language, have access to the social media, or have some confused apologists.
Now parents buy rags for kids.It's becoming normal for girls to be nude.
In the nearest future, anyone who doesn't conform to these mad standards would be the new madman.

Imagine how they tag you homophobic when you speak against this nonsense.
They are quick to say "live and let live" , "it doesn't hurt anybody" etc. But you want to showcase it , you want our children to embrace it as normal, you are subtly pushing it YET YOU DON'T WANT US TO TALK?
How can it not hurt anybody? If we are not affected by it now and our children are not protected, have they not succeeded in destroying our future?

They are gradually teaching our children to tolerate it.They show them "successful" homosexuals. They are redefining marriage.
Yet some Naive persons are saying leave them.
If you are sane, please fight it whether the whole world come to accept it or not.Influence your friends and children to object to unwholesome practices. Help those involved in homosexual activities OUT of it.

If you speak like this, you clearly don't understand the Bible.
I suggest you speak on what you know.
Christian life is about bringing godliness ( God's kind of life) wherever we are.It will reflect in our judgment of what is right or wrong. In fact, it's our standard whether the other person believes it or not.
The word of God is not subject to argument.

Summary,
All true Christians live by the Word of God, not popular culture or what is politically correct.

Kobojunkie:
1. To judge righteously is to judge all by God's standard and not standards created by men or even personal standards(opinions).

2. When you are dealing with someone who is an unbeliever, what does bringing God and Christianity do for the discussion particularly the standards of the world is not the same standard God holds Christians to?

3. It isn't only when a Christian condemns a person to hell that that he or she is said to have judged unrighteously. Any judgement that is not according to standards set by God is said to be unrighteous.

What is it about this vaccine?
Una no go market, or motor parks, na church una dey target.
With all the uncertainties, they still insist on vaccinating the populace.
Why are we not hearing so much about this vaccination in Kano or Sokoto? Why down South? Is it that they don't want to immune people in those places?

How una sure say dis letter na true?
See name
"Sunday Congo"
"Rev. fr Longs"
....
No be dis corntree we dey when some pipu wear Choir robe say dem be Northern Bishops?
Can't remember but it seems it was for Pantanmi too.
One thing I love about Christians is that they won't kill you because you decided to deceive yourself. They'd just mark you.
Imagine Sunday Congo...

Hmmmn...the title, if that's what she meant by her post, is just a proof she doesn't know what marriage should be.

The way some just mislead people with pun is amazing.
For the record,
Marriage changes a lot of things.If could be for an upgrade, to borrow her word, or otherwise.

Marriage should be an upgrade to your life.If it won't, please stay single.

If you desire to improve, and you're married to the right person, you'll definitely improve.

On the flipside, if you marry the wrong person, instead of an upgrade you'll go down.
