23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Mathew 24
1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.[b] 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. [/b]25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, 51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth

Mathew 24. Very important.
1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

Nigeria went into the second half with the intention of protecting the one goal lead. The chant of hay hay hay by the Nigerian fans may also have contributed to the young girls losing composure in the second half. The injury to the falconets goalkeeper compounded the issue. Overall its a decent result. EEven the play that led to Brazil free kick from which they scored, should have been a foul against them before it got to that stage, perhaps, the referee was upset with Nigeria time wasting tactics.

My advise for the next game, is that the defense should be discipline with area balls. The defenders shouldn't allow crosses to drop to opponents or land. The first choice keeper should rest her ankle very well and should be prevented from taking goal kicks with the leg if she got fit for the Italy game.

They are doing us proud.

Welcome to Old Trafford, theatre of dreams.

Marriage is suppose to bring happiness to the man. Having a woman around is even suppose to prolong the man's life. If the contrary is now the case in our contemporary material world, then our women have questions to answer.
Haven said that, in Catholicism, there are three vocations. Marriage, Priesthood and single life. See Mathew 19:1-12. So everyone has options. But only the married people are suppose to have sex, anything outside this is a grevious sin against the holy spirit.

jumman: When your girlfriend needs money to buy the latest dresses, shoes and blackberry in town you wan start to dey whisper i love u 1000 times for her hair, shey na dat one she go chop. Do all these without giving her money she will leave ypu for a richer guy.

Guys, you people haven't noticed how girls avoided this topic, and the first girl that had to comment wrote the above? That's the average mentality of the Nigerian girl about love.
Don't ever think a contemporar Nigerian girl loves you. There is always a motive.

I have a feeling that even Barca have something they add to the food served their players that enhances their perfomace and keep them energize for whole duration. That substance possibly has so far defied any detecting technology. Imagine the way they run, tackle all through 90 mins. They never get tired. Daniel Alves, Xavi, Iniester, Messi and co are beast.
Then the Chinese olympic team is another to be suspected. There must be a powerful herb somewhere. I heard a particular Chinese female swimmer did better than American powerful boy, Phelps in the last 50 meters when compared, and the west are crying fowl.

But until it is proven, they are the champions we know.

Sahara reporters have been consistent in giving us these news and always first to report. Kudos!

What is the essence of this topic? Does it mean you girls lack confidence? You people can go ahead and breed young girls that will grow up not willing to stay in their husbands' houses (not being able to stay in marriages). Perhaps, the very reason marriages are not working in the western world. Women are programmed and stereotyped from girlhood.

soccerchic: Gorgeous woman...I just dont like the fact that she looks so much like me ( I swear this is too much )

Are you serious? Let me see your picture

[quote author=~vicky~]The soul and the spirit are the two primary immaterial aspects that Scripture ascribes to humanity. It can be confusing to attempt to discern the precise differences between the two. The word “spirit” refers only to the immaterial facet of humanity. Human beings have a spirit, but we are not spirits. However, in Scripture, only believers are said to be spiritually alive (1 Corinthians 2:11; Hebrews 4:12; James 2:26), while unbelievers are spiritually dead (Ephesians 2:1-5; Colossians 2:13). In Paul's writing, the spiritual was pivotal to the life of the believer (1 Corinthians 2:14; 3:1; Ephesians 1:3; 5:19; Colossians 1:9; 3:16). The spirit is the element in humanity which gives us the ability to have an intimate relationship with God. Whenever the word “spirit” is used, it refers to the immaterial part of humanity that “connects” with God, who Himself is spirit (John 4:24).

The word “soul” can refer to both the immaterial and material aspects of humanity. Unlike human beings having a spirit, human beings are souls. In its most basic sense, the word “soul” means “life.” However, beyond this essential meaning, the Bible speaks of the soul in many contexts. One of these is humanity’s eagerness to sin (Luke 12:26). Humanity is naturally evil, and our souls are tainted as a result. The life principle of the soul is removed at the time of physical death (Genesis 35:18; Jeremiah 15:2). The soul, as with the spirit, is the center of many spiritual and emotional experiences (Job 30:25; Psalm 43:5; Jeremiah 13:17). Whenever the word “soul” is used, it can refer to the whole person, whether alive or in the afterlife.

The soul and the spirit are connected, but separable (Hebrews 4:12). The soul is the essence of humanity’s being; it is who we are. The spirit is the aspect of humanity that connects with God.

The only way ATM can short pay or over pay is when the cashier loads the wrong denomination in the canister. It's a human error that goes back to affect the bank and can lead to the dismissal or sack of the bank's staff. But this is rear since the bank staff knows the implication. It's like shooting oneself.

The only reason he is still nice to you is because he thinks you are either playing hard to get or decent. The very moment (which is soon) he realises your game, he will treat you like the worst wh*re on earth. My advise is tell him you are not interested and let him be focus.

When Kanu Nwankwo married his wife what was the age difference? @OP, my advise is, discuss this issue with your close friends first because they know you both and can see things you will not be able to see. Then if they approve it, you can discuss with the girl before involving family members. If you truly love her and follow peoples' mouth here suggesting you should not marry her, you might find yourself not being able to fall in love quickly again. And you could be 40 before falling in love again. Then you will find yourself forcing to fall in love at all. It will be more painful, if you rush into another woman,and in four years, this your girl will be more mature and you will still wish you had her. So think well. However, I believe if you find a girl of age of 22 plus, you will enjoy the relationship more. The sense of reasoning and maturity will be sweeter and more complementing. Your heart is your heart, your choice is your choice. Goodluck.

Yomieluv: i didnt insult u,i was just explaining why blind people,or people like u, whose brain are performing below expectation shouldnt join Nairaland..moreva,why should i be afraid of U?u be God,Obama,or Goodluck?.next time,read b4 u comment,dont make me feel ur parents wasted money sending u to school..

I don't blame you, you lack home training neither do you understand the topic being discussed. ..... I am waiting for you guys to mention the name of this so called Taiye Taiwo younger brother that they claim people over 30 call bros. People like to bring people down, and they know nothing about the family. Too bad!

Yomieluv: nairaland isnt 4d blind,or illiterate.if u cant read,or having difficulty undastanding simple writeup,click on exit.ok.

You don't have respect. You come to forum and attack people, you are bold to do that because you aren't face to face with them. Learn to be polite and apply coutesy.

Mucokey: you could at least read in btw lines to understand his write up before referring to already over _flogged_issue of denial of Mr. Taiye Taiwo . He specifically stated Taiye Taiwo's YOUNGER BROTHER while you re hia still defending de indefendable Taiwo....think

So what is the name of this Taiye Taiwo younger brother? Is he close to the Taiwo family?

Yomieluv: Most African,and south American are guilty of fielding overage playerz..imagine,taiye taiwo's younga brother is reffered to "bros"in his area by people that are above 30yearz.i wonda how old he is,truly.when he claims below 30yrz.anoda case study is Julius Aghaowa,a serving policeman then,claiming unda 30,when he's truly above 45....mmmtcheww.

How true is this? Do you know his suppose brother? Or are you just repeating what you read somewhere about Taiye Taiwo having a twin brother? Please throw more light because Taiye Taiwo was quoted to have said his twin brother died as an infant.

It's ok please. Do you people want her to commit suicide? It's just a personal mistake she made. We all have ours. If only Ola and Chris were fit to play the game, Naija wouldn't have noticed Goldie's flaws this much..

Let's wait and hear from Sanusi. This is just an accusation.

“In every battle, you take pre-emptive steps because it can make all the difference. Medicine after death doesn’t make sense except to foolish people and I am not a foolish man.”

It's the amount of effort, time and care that should help you determine. The person that loves you is happy showing you off and being with you. He sacrifices or cancels some of his personal engagements for your mutual engagements. But one thing, if you are always around him, you won't know if he loves you. Keep some distance and see how much he wants you around. Finally, note that as you are testing him, he too is testing you. If you make life unbearable for him thinking you are testing him, he might just conclude you are not in love with him.

ministergh: Biggie cheated the girl...look at the country vote....a country like ghana has voted for her on her nominations...why the sudden change. Just chheck all the votes. Biggie cheated

What you don't understand is the fact that Ghana still has a rep in the house, then Goldie was to be the next head of house. This situation would have kept her till the final, and Ghanaians and other countries know for sure that that is risky for their own reps. Nigerians can swing the votes when it gets to the final. Haven won it three consecutive times, the other participating countries carefully avoided voting the Nigerian rep (Goldie). When she was up for eviction the previous week, she got more countries than now. That is because sentiments were still kept aside at that time. But the truth is that she was not a worthy representative of Nigeria, hence, many Nigerian viewers lost interest in the show.

Be careful. If the Ibo people pull out their money, we will see how the bank can stand.

There is a difference between living and existing. Lagos lifestyle makes the inhabitants more of people who only exist; suffering and smiling. Most people in Lagos are unaware of their condition because they have not tasted the smooth city life in some other states capital in the country. Places where you kick your car, hit your friend's house at the other end of the city within minutes, and drive around to places of interest within couple of minutes. You leave work and hit home within 15 minutes, etc. In Lagos, one outing could consume your day and your weekend is ruined. The whole Lagos actually smell because of stagnant water/flood in the gutters and places. But people shouldn't hate LASMA because they have brought discipline to traffic. It used to be far worse when I lived in Lagos between 2000 and 2001. I only occasionally visit Lag now. It is too noisy, too many people, too many vehicles, too many smoke from cars, choked houses without space for children to play around some vegetation or field. Too serious a people, a sign they aren't actually happy. Lined up shops, long buses and molue packing people like sardine, the drivers and conductors are unnecessary aggressive and look like people who aren't concern taking good care of themselves; I sometimes wonder if they have homes and family to return to. A man with a wife dresses well to work, and not wearing dirty shirt trousers and boxers shorts in irritation of passengers. Lagos na wa!
