tomyka81:"He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool and ignoramus. " u think u know but u are either dumb to understand, mischievious, or completely arrogant to learn.. read my last post carefully. there is no logic in havin a president submitting to the authority of a prime minister and a prime minister submitting under the authority of the president simultaneously. Common sense which u are extremely bereft of requires that one must be superior to the other in authority for things to work well. the guy quoted more than five scriptures which says women are to submit. u keep dwelling on one verse that was totally talking of general Christian Fellowship. I again challenge u to state any verse that says men should obey/submit to their wives. U also display unrivalled foolishness by insinuating that anyone who believes in the scrptural instruction for wives to submit is an oppressor. submission is not slavery. only a foolish man will misinterprete submission to mean oppression as u are doing. submission/respect and love by are essential for a Christian home to thrive. God gave the man the major responsibilty of love and the Woman, submission. if my wife is submissive, i am going to love her more, not subject her to slavery as in ur books. this roadside bible student, humble yourself and learn. else, drop the scripture that states clearly a man should submit to his wife's authority. i also wanna learn. otherwise, parkwell bros. |
tuk2ato:Bros, no try am... i repeat, no try am. i used 2 of their phones. the last was injoo fire and its an apology. the phone is almost 2 months with their Customer care and theyve not been able to change the touch pad which went bad just 2 months after buying the crap. i saw their 10inch tab for 15k on JUMIA blackfriday. i just hissed and passed. nothing can make me return there. if u aint getting from big brands like, samsung, nokia, lenovo etc, just go with tecno, infinix or gionee. other than these, u ar OYO. |
@tomyka81. if u had read my first post carefully, u wont have to write tis long epistle. I challenge u to tell me the particular verse where God said a man should submit to his wife. notice that the whole of ephesians 5 and even 6 is talking abt Christian unity and a peaceful home. vs 21 that u quote out of context is talking abt general Christian Fellowship with other brethren of Christ body. basically, humility is the main point there. but immediatly follows verse 22 which clearly instructs the Woman to submit. here, the man was totally left out. in bibles that normally group verses, u will c that vs 21 is grouped differently from 22. vs 22 forward is more specific abt how a good peaceful christian home should be. every average bible student knows that the inatruction of the bible is for wives to submit and respect, children to obey, and husbands to love and live in understanding with both wife and kids submitting means subjecting or humbling oneself under another's authority. by your claim of mutual submission in marriage, it means the man should also subject or humble himself under the wife's authority. it means a 50/50 authority; a house with 2 captains. how will such marriage stand. God in his wisdom understands that one must head over the other hence the instruction of God that the woman be under the man. i am not married but am someone who will inquire my wife's opinion on virtually everything i will do if possible. however, based on bible instruction, if we dont get to agree on something, i have the veto Power to take the final decision i believe is best. that is the right God gave me as the man. also, if my wife offers an opinion that i feel is more superior to mine, hers of coz will b taken. if again i dont accept her position but simply decide to still take and use it, it is a priviledge to her and not a right. the man is the one with the right to veto anything in the interest of the family. the right is God given by virtue of being the head. u claim U can question God and no place in scrpture says u can't. really?? "What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker? Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying, 'Stop, you're doing it wrong!' Does the pot exclaim, 'How clumsy can you be?' isa 45:9 u can of coz ask God abt things u dont understand or plead for mercy, but that still depends on whether God wants to answer u or have Mercy. thats the case with david and hezekiah u were quoting out of context. remembr david and uriah's wife? remember davids pleas for the son to survive? remember God refused? God can hear us out but at last, he still has the veto Power. thats how the man is to the Woman. Plus, u made it seem like a virteous Woman cant ever give a wrong or inferior advice. GUY, park well abeg. go do more research bros. point is, the man that loves his wife as Instructed will give her a democratic home not an authoritarian one. in the end though, the bulk stops at his table. FINAL DECISION IN A GOOD CHRISTIAN HOME IS A RIGHT TO THE HUSBAND BUT A PRIVILEDGE TO THE WIFE. Honestly, u cant convince me otherwise with regards this. thus, if you no gree, go jump inside lagoon. EOD ![]() |
tomyka81:dont misinterprete me pls.. a question for u is 1. "do u question God or give him advice on what to do?" 2 . when God excercises dominion over mankind, does it mean he does not love us? 3. or when a parent dominates his child and dictates many of his ways does it mean he hates the child? 4. then, what does it mean for a Woman to submit to her husband as unto God? 5. the man is the head of the Home. if u have a head in your office, can u press your opinion on him? 6. Of coz a good head will ask for your opinion but if he does not agree with it will he take it? 7.. if your head in the office gives u a duty to do and u feel there's a better way to do it. u suggest but he insist u use his method will u stubbornly use yours cos yours is the best? now u c that its not abt the head being super human. its just that he leads and is responsible and will b held accountable for whatever decision or action done by whoever is under his authority. so it is with the husband and wife. |
Dont even start Op.. what does it mean to submit as unto God? as a human being, submitting to God is doing his will without questioning. thats y thou we may have grudges, Gods will is always done. likewise, the Woman could air her opinions. even God said to the israelites, "come let us reason together". at the end though, the husbands will must prevail. of coz there are times God permits what we insist. that is where the man must also "dwell with her with understanding". he could also permit her to have way even if he has a contrary view. however, once he feels his opinion is best, the woman must keep quite. Christ loved the church and died for it while the prospective members were yet sinners.. husbands must love their wives even when she is a wrong doer. EOD |
My dad and mum are As both. first 4 kids turned out lucky. all AS. last child who came abt 7 yrs after the 4th was unlucky. childhood (2-12) was nightmare not only for her but the whole Family. hers was even a mild one as compared to others. little cold, little household chores or a little excercise will let hell lose. there were days tears fell from my eyes and i wished pain was transferable so we could take parts away. for now, the teenager appears to have overcome the challenges. very little crisis recently and they aint severe. there was this day the lad cried "mummy what is this, what is this,, God, Jesus, please now, pls help me". this was abt 2am and we had to stay awake. just one of the days i had to shed tears. ive quited 2 great relationships cos of this and b4 i got my wife 2 b, 1 of the first things i inquire from a lady i plan 2 befriend is her genotype.. No time to waste. I don't think u will b glad to hear your child asking u, " mummy what is this" or "y me".. plus dont get religious saying u got Faith. God has given man wisdom to be guided. dont tempt him. |
i bought in Suleja at 150 and along kaduna kafanchan road, they sell upward of 145. thing is this dpr are just noise makers. they only catch and announce as publicity stunts. but most of the others caught simply roger them and thats all. besides, most of the stations selling above 87 only sell early in the morning b4 dpr resumes work and later in the evening when dpr must have closed. sooo, all these call this call that na wash. |
So i am being bashed for wanting to keep my wife Hardworking. Plus its not abt affordability oh. just that while in sch, i came across a good no of students who cant spare any time to wash Cloths. they rather borrow money to take their cloths for laundry rather than to do it themselves. my findings reveals that most of such people were born to meet the washing Machine at home or just had maids doing it. i then came to the conclusion that there is a Spirit of laziness attached to the Machine. I no want make e posess my wife. thats y ohh. |
So i remember those days when my mum will give me a tray with 3-4dishes of cooked Rice and stew to share to neighbors around. I carry the tray on my head in one direction while my Sis takes hers in another. where is grew up, due to religious crisis, u could count 10k houses in a Christian area with non belonging to a muslim and vice versa. Thus if its Christmas, its like everyone is celebrating. Most times, once i deliver the food, the mother of the house quickly turns it, rinse the plate and pour in her own rice and stew. i notice this practice is still very much alive today. Hence i ask, is there any wisdom in exchanging rice and stew for rice and stew? Am thinking my wife to b should not do that. ![]() |
She's an adulteress. Divorce her b4 she kills u. btw, hw many days did u take to write this volume? ![]() |
Cutehector:absolutely... if i b Woman, Family First sha |

So am planning on getting married next year and my fiance thinks i should get a washing Machine for her. Well, i dont think buying it early in the marriage is proper. Though i knw she's hardworking, I feel it will make her lazy early in the marriage. of coz when children populate the house i can consider that. Abeg ohh, am i right or just being too traditional? Feminist, this is not your food ohh. ) |
the problem with us today is that people dont take time to know Gods word.. hence, discernment is difficult. people often miscontrue someone who dosnt miss church or morning devotion as a "committed Christian". if u are consistent in STUDYING (NOT READING) Gods word, u get loaded wit knowledge and even ur life changes in line with the Word u injest daily. op, my point is if u are fully loaded with Gods word, u will most likely discover by a mere discussion if your gf or bf is also well rooted in Gods word or not. Someone who shows a clear cut understanding of Gods word, and his instructions and does same is God-fearing. For me, by simply asking a lady what she understands as "submission as unto God", her response tells me a lot. ironically, except u two cohabit, most of what u get to know and believe abt the other person is what they say rather than what they do. Simply put, a God Fearing man is the one that shows unrivaled understanding of, and action on the statement, "husbands, love your wives as Christ loved d Church". again, u need to b well rooted in the word to know if such knowledge and(or) action is deep rooted or surficial . |
Chanchit:a little education for u. when someone is granted bail, it does not mean money is paid. it simply means someone who agrees to bail him if liable to payment of the said sum should he not be able to produce him in court subsequently. |

Help me satisfy my curiousity to know if its wise to marry a lady who is not financially independent. there's this thread i saw and NLanders made it look like its not a good idea for a man to marry such a liability. As i dey think my marriage late next year, i won Know who i should keep off from. ![]() Also, married guys, was your wife independent? |

byvan03: them done make me go back to dust my marriage books to see if there's somthing i missed out b4 i enter this "VALLEY OF DEATH". |
prissyluv:I think u should create a thread with this heading:" Married Ladies, were u financialy independent b4 getting married? Share your story. " abeg create am cos.the way marriage is painted here, e tire me ohh. |
queenfav:I understand you care less about marriage and that's y in my first post, i warned her to be weary of people as U . In my posts, i gave 70% positive and 30% negative points. you and the other "No" "bandwagon" didnt do that. Instead, u made marriage look like not something worth being excited about. You painted a picture of 100% 'hellfire' for one who will combine marriage and schooling. I understand you are affected by your environment; of coz as a divorce attorney, u dont expect people with good homes to come to you. All those coming to you are those with troubles hence your general opinion. but, u cant use that to give an objective opinion if u realy wanna do. from ur submission, a lady of 30 who is not fully financialy stable should not marry cause of the posibility of troubles ahead. How can i go into marriage making contingent plans for possible divorce? It simply means that i have not studied my spouse or the situation before taking the leap. To me, making alternative plans for a divorce or betrayal or broken promise in marriage is the beginning of failure. It is to me utter foolishness for a woman to seek a job just cos she wanna prepare for any eventualities like divorce or failed promises. Rather, she should quest for a job cos she wishes to support her husband later in the marriage.For emotional stability, i dont see any big difference between a 28year old unemployed divorcee and a 21year old unemployed divorcee. Both will likely rush to their parents and cry. I think the lady in question has not suggested any pressure from external quarters. I observe she is moved by her emotions within her and she appears to be carrying her brain with along with her. Love is essential for marriage. My point is, when advising, give someone the good side and also the bad sides so the person can make an informed decision. Mind u, there is no friendship in the world, between friends, nations, or even between God and Man that is a "smooth sail". But what i know is that even with trouble times, Marriage is good and soonest, am also "rushing" into it. . There are more excellent ones than the troubled ones. If all it took to make marriage work was mere emotional maturity and financial independence, the USA wont be having this much cases of divorce among it's teaming working class; neither will the divorce cases of high profile Nigerians ever be. GOD BLESS THEE FOR THY SUBMISSIONS. |
I got oily acne prone skin. Have had acne from age 16. Its abt 14 yrs naw and i dont have a clear face. Thats not my concern though cos my acne regulates btw mild and moderate. i havent cared abt using moiturisers but now that the harmattan is here,am giving it a thought. ive used niveabut it darkens me n breaks me out. Otentika was great but i think it clogs my skin. which moisturiser can u suggest? i dont want something that will lighten me much. just a smooth, soft face will do. thks. |
I love the last 3 or so comments coming from ladies with even experience. Those other ladies posting earlier painted us men like some horrible creatures,with all of us having tendencies of abusing women and being deceptive. Truth is, i got many aunts who are in their late 20s and early 30s, unmarried and though being graduates have not been able to land a beta job apart from private school jobs that pay 10-20k and overwork them. Am not happy when i see them desperate abt marriage and crying like small babies once a relationship they hope will end up in marriage goes gaga. One of them who after graduating with a law degree, went to law school, served and married at 28. After a year or so, she had a still birth and its 2 yrs now without another pregnancy. She once told me "if i had known, i would have married while in school, at least, i should hav one or two children now". Besides, she wont be in school forever. At most, 4yrs and she can also start supporting him once she lands a job. Fact is girl, take your time to study this man. there are good men out there and i know i myself will make a good husband . If you got the right person, looked at all the consequences listed here for u and you are fully convinced it's a go, pls take the leap. If your parents still insists, then i think they care less about your happiness and are probably more concerned of the EGO they gonna get by people hailing them for sponsoring u to a degree . I dont even understand y they should insist on keeping u and spending more money just for someone to come and carry u away and benefit from their labor when they hav someone willin to take away the stress rightaway. Well, maybe they are well bucksd up.Lastly, since u say u are a Christian, if they oppose, you could get your pastors to intervene. sometimes, they wield a very great influence especially if u are close to them or have spoken heart to heart with them. start getting close to ur spiritual leaders now if uve not done so. they can also advice u about your plans. [color=#000099][/color] Just make sure u are academically sound sha else carry overs fit punish u especially if u got a child. U are responsible for your actions ohh. Look b4 you leap. But dont wait and expire at home. ![]() and for queenfav who can wear a 'waiting ring' till 2017, na una type dem Olukoya and Oyedepo dey complain abt. I wish u well on your path to widowhood cos as Gordons talk, "woman wey dey 40 and never marry don turn selfmade widow" ![]() romance007, Wish U best of Luck. |
inpeace:lol, when the Phone commot? just wait and use it for some two months. thereafter, come here and collect hankerchief for your tears. twice beaten,.......... you know the drill. i pray u enjoy it sha and it never developes fault cos their Customer Care is an Apology. |
Maruf05:Gbam!! that's just the point. u hit it well certificate is overrated in Nigeria just cos it's seen as the only key to success. @op fact is by your age, u may graduate at 26, nysc by 27, and job by 28 that's if things work out like WISHES. by then you may be lucky to find someone who loves u else, the waiting starts and desperation sets in. u are at that point having fewer options and u may never get such marriage material u claim u have now. worst is if u enter 30, enof prayer and fasting be that. lol. you are an adult and thus responsible for whatever consequence shall follow your action. your daddy and Mum have themselves to themselves. you will be the one dying of loneliness not them. at that point, not the best job can help u with a good husband. also, if your current guy is the wrong choice, u still live with the consequence. just as I suggested earlier, let your guy be patient to wait till u are in 200lv. plus, I understand u are a Christian. so as hayzed1090 suggested, based on Paul's teaching, it's better to get married now than to keep burning with lustful passion, except of cos if u are already testing the forbidden fruit. with proper planning, and a good hubby, marriage will be a blessing to your academics rather than a curse. U AIN'T TOO SMALL FOR MARRIAGE BUT WAIT JUST A LITTLE. AND ABOVE ALL, PRAY AND WAIT ON GOD. lalasticlala n ishilove no go come chop this one |
Girl!! u came to the wrong forum Co's most guys and ladies on NL are old cargoes btw 27-50 and unmarried. am 30 and unmarried top. lol.. we will thus not give u objective answer cos we are affected by our conditions. that's y many have expressd the deluded thought that at 21, u are too small to marry and u Should wait to "grow" and mature. @topic, u are 3 yrs above the marriage age in naija and far ahead many married ladies in the north. thing is, marriage is good at least if u find Mr. right. cos of your studies however, I think a 2year delay won't be harmful. within this period, work to understand your man and yourself. keep planning with him on how the home should be cos that will guarantee u less problems later. he should also plan on hustling more and preparing to be a father. though I think he is already old. lastly, as someone said above, keep reminding your parents that u are an adult and though u respect them, u are responsible for your life. you ain't too small for marriage. don't be deceive by NL Oldies. lol |
