30-35 for men 25-32 for women

Was the debt incurred in generating the income out of which the tithe is to be paid? if so, settle debt first. If not pay tithe first.

Certain debts or expenses are tithe deductible.

I have taken time to read some of the posts on this topic and I will respond as follows:

(1) Sincerely speaking TRUE CHRISTIANS are better off than UNBELIEVERS. If your definition of 'better-off' is in terms of wealth acquisition then you miss the point. What a genuine child of God thinks about and wishes Is completely different from what an unbeliever thinks about and wishes.
The emphasis on wealth and financial prosperity as preached by some churches today has blindfolded so many 'Christians' and has indeed taken so many away from the faith.
Believe it or not excess wealth has the tendency of taking a child of God away from God. Jesus was very emphatic when He said "it is easy for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man entering into the kingdom of God.

God will not allow His child to go hungry but will not give enough to push him out of faith.

(2) one of the situations when u see that a true born-again christian is better than an unbeliever is on death bed. A true Christian dies happily knowing were he/she is going. Most wealthy and evil men during death regrets the life they lived and all the atrocities they committed. they have always wished they lived for God.

(3) For those who do not believe in the existence of God, I have this question to ask: Let us assume that we gave our life to Christ and lived a holy life on earth, passed through persecution and finally we all died and discovered that all these talk about church and Christ were falsehood.What have we lost?

I have one truth as self evident "GOD EXISTS AND HIS WAYS ARE DIFFERENT FROM THE WAYS OF MEN". Naturally one believes in the existence of God except where ones mind has been conditioned, by what one reads, sees, hears etc, to believe otherwise.

If u believe that evil exists, then it is proof that the opposite also exists and that is GOOD(which is GOD)

Comments are welcome for more explanations

Avoiding LDR is avoiding unnecessary expenses

HND(ACC); ACA; ACIT; MBA(in view).

How is that?

@kcreal

If you are a moslem woe betide you. But, if you are a christian, get prepared. The day of reckoning is at hand.

May God help us.

we are ready for the animals. i say again, we are ready. We are prepared. WE will retaliate Jos killings. I am an Igboman and a christain. I MUST avenge the killing of my christian brothers and sisters  in Jos. It is my no 1  Mission.

Armageddon has indeed started.

The American prediction that Nigeria will soon break-up is fast coming to fulfillment.

MEND, this is the time to act.

All northerners in South-South should be declared number one enemy.

Very soon, the storm will gather, and when it does, it will be total ARMAGEDDON. BIAFRANS SHALL BE FREE.

With plans by the north to eliminate GEJ, we are totally prepared for the HAUSA/FULANI rascals.

NEVER AGAIN WILL BIAFRA LOSS ANY BATTLE. WE ARE PREPARED!

We are not unaware of the plans by the northern idiots to get rid of GEJ. The effects of that singular act will be unimaginable. VERY SOON THE STORM WILL START GATHERING. THINK OF WHERE YOU WILL BE. THOSE WHO LOVE THEIR LIVES WILL LOSS THEM AND THOSE WHO ARE NOT AFRAID OF DEATH WILL HAVE THEIRS.

The northerners are our common enemy. It is unfortunate the Yorubers, being what they are,  have decided to play the BAT in situations that required taking total and unmitigated stand at a point.

The call for freedom shall echo until it is achieved. If i die in the course of liberating my people from oppression, then nothing can be more honourable.

I did my NYSC in the north but I never ceased to proclaim that BIAFRA will rise again. OJUKWU may have said one or two things to discourage the campaign for BIAFRA; But what do you expect from a dieing old man.

THE REPUBLIC OF BIAFRA is more than OJUKWU or any other individual for that matter.  THERE SHALL ARISE ONE MIGHTIER THAN OJUKWU SOON TO CHAMPION THIS NOBLE COURSE AND WE ARE PREPARED.

WE DO NOT CARE HOW MANY COUNTRIES OR WORLD POWERS WILL AID NIGERIAN BUT ONE TRUTH WILL BE SELF EVIDENT: BIAFRA WILL SOON COME TO BE.

i have taken time to read what some ignorant NLs have posted about The Biafran war.

The igbos went to that war to prove the point that you cannot continue to oppress a people without their fighting back. We may have lost the war in terms of military might but this point has been proved.

The lessons of the WAR is very fresh in our memory and it has indeed made us stronger. WE are not afraid, in fact, we are more prepared to fight with our lives than ever. What happened in 2002 when the violent Northern bastards killed some of our brothers?  ABA responded by killing more northerners. For every single Igbo man killed unjustly in the north, We will reply by killing 3 northerners. IT WILL REMAIN LIKE THAT

I am happy that our south south brothers are beginning to realise the lies called Nigeria. What EZE IGBO GBURUGBURU saw in 1967 is what they are seeing today. BIAFRA WILL NEVER AGAIN LOSS ANY WAR.

@onyinyeGod

Dr Chris Ngige has already won the election. Please can i have ur phone number

NLs, I HAVE ACQUIRED THESE QUALIFICATIONS HND, ACA

I AM CONFUSED ABOUT WHETHER TO GO FOR A BSC OR JUST MOVE AHEAD TO DO MBA.

PLEASE I NEED AN ADVICE.

NONSENSE, AMODU. AMODU. AMODU. HOW MANY TIMES DID I CALL YOU? YOU MUST NOT GO TO ANC LET ALONE W/CUP.

IT IS VERY CLEAR, AMODU IS ONE OF THE WORST COUCHES IN NIGERIA AND SHOULD NOT GO TO ANC OR W/CUP

ANYBODY CALLING FOR AMODU TO TAKE THE EAGLES TO 2010 W/CUP OR EVEN ANC IS AN ENEMY OF SOCCER IN NIGERIA.

AMODU DID NOT QUALIFY US FOR WORLD CUP. WE QUALIFIED BY SHEER LUCK. IF TUNISIA HAD WON OR DRAWN THEIR MATCH, THE STORY WOULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT.

I VOTE WESTERHOF/SIASIA FOR ALL THE 2010 BATTLES

NLs what is ur opinion about RIBADU FOR PRESIDENT

Nawaooooo. What do we say of TBJ now that all his predictions proved false?

(1) nigeria did not give kenya 3-1 as TBJ predicted rather it was 3-2


(2) mozambique did not give tunisia 2-1 as TBJ predicted rather it was 1-0

(3) nigeria did not win U-17 gold as predicted by TBJ rather Swiss boys won and lifted the cup


WHAT DO WE NOW SAY OF THIS FALSE PROPHET. JESUS FOREWARNED US IN THE BIBLE THAT MANY SHALL COME IN HIS NAME AND WILL EVEN DO MIRACLES IN HIS NAME; HE ADVISED WE SHOULD BE CAREFUL ABOUT DEALING WITH SUCH PEOPLE.

IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT WE ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH PROPHESIES AND MIRACLES THAN BEING IN GOOD STANDING IN GOD.

NLs I HAVE THIS QUESTION TO ASK- IS THERE A MYSTERY ABOUT HIV/AIDS THAT WE KNOW NOT ABOUT?

I ASK THIS QUESTION B/C THERE IS A RECENT CASE ABOUT A MAN TESTING NEGATIVE TO THE VIRUS WHILE HIS WIFE IS POSTIVE. MEANWHILE THEY HAVE BEEN MAKING LOVE TOGETHER FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS.

B/4 NOW, THE VIEW IS THAT ONCE OR TWICE U SLEEP WITH A HIV POSITIVE PERSON, U ARE AUTOMATICALLY POSITVE.

AGAIN, CAN U GET THE VIRUS FROM KISSING? I READ A WRITEUP SOMEWHERE THAT THE VIRUS CAN BE CONTRACTED THROUGH KISSING.

NAIRALANDERS, I HAVE THIS QUESTION TO ASK- DO ONE GET INFECTED WITH HIV BY MAKING LOVE ONCE OR TWICE WITH A HIV POSITIVE PERSON ?

I ASK THIS QUESTION B/C I HAVE HEARD AND SEEN CASES WHERE A MAN WILL BE NEGATIVE AND HIS WIFE POSITIVE AND VICE VERSA. EVEN THOUGH THEY MAKE LOVE EVERY NOW AND THEN. IS THERE A MYSTERY ABOUT THIS DISEASE THAT WE DO NOT KNOW OF?

Let the truth be told, sex strengthens relationship. However, having it on the first day of meeting is somewhat queer. Like someone said it makes the girl appear cheap but i add here that it also make the guy appear  a sexmaniac.

Establishing these Universities creates more jobs in itself. Aren't there going to be Academic and Non-Academic staff of the Universities? The problem is not in the number of universities or the non-availability of jobs in the country. The problem is in the quality of graduates we produce in Nigeria. Believe me, if we turn out well tutored and trained graduates- even if there is no job in the country-they can take up good jobs outside the country. Have u ever wondered why a first class graduate in Nigeria cannot even be offered a clerk's job in America or United kingdom?

Nigerians, this has become too unbearable, time to act is now. Nobody should put his money in any of these commercial banks. The first person to see any of these culprits on the street should stone him/her to death. The much needed reform/revolution has finally started. I hereby declare Ibru, Akingbola, etc enemies of the state.

I bought a toyota camri from a friend of mine. Honestly, the car serves me wonderfully well. I was able to drive 300km in an empty tank.

Irrespective of our dismal performance in the on-going under-20 world cup competition, Siasia remains the best indigenous coach Nigeria has ever produced. However, this does not change my initial stance:

(a) NFF should be closed down

(b) NFL should be closed down

(c) The budgetary appropriation to sports(football) should be diverted to ensuring steady supply of electricity in Nigeria; that way, Nigerians will be better.

GANI FAWEHINMI were are u?

I still maintain my earlier stand:

(a) NFF should be closed down

(b) NFL should be closed down

(c) Budgetary appropriation to sports(particularly football) should be channeled towards ensuring steady supply of electricity. That way Nigerians will be better

My reactions will depend on whether the lady is a 'wife material'. If she is, I will urge her to keep the pregnancy. If she is not, I will suggest abortion. If she insists on keeping it to tie me down, then she is in for the worst shocker of her life.

@poster,
U told us u just spoke with ur ex. U didn't tell us who initiated the conversation.

Did u call her or did she call u? Pls answer

@asha

At 5 digits, ur salary will be between #10,000 and #99,999 inclusive. this is not enough to keep a lady comfortable in present day Nigeria. By this very fact u are not eligible. Uju I advice u go for guys whose take home pay runs into 7 digits a month. eg, senators/house of rep members of the fed republic, Pastors etc
