PoliticsRe: Ohanaeze Sets Up Committee To Design Economic Blueprint For Ndigbo by eodavids(m): 1:36pm On May 05, 2017
legitnow:
Simple, becos Nigeria is very unstable and can collapse at any given time.

IPOB is very popular and as such carries the mandate of Ndiigbo. IPOB can head deep into Port Harcourt unchallenged, which other group can attain such fit? Ohanaeze no dey fear? All south east Gov and Senator better fall in line with Nnamdi just in case the zoo collapse, otherwise they will have a very big problem on their hands.
Ohaneze Ndigbo cannot and should not mix up with Ipob.

Legally, Ipob is unlawful while the Ohaneze is a legally recognized body of Ndigbo.

Pls, let's notbcriticize this initiative by the Ohaneze, rather we should (as true Igbo Sons and Daughters) pray and hope that the committees set will result in positive gains for the Igbo Nation

Hardeysolution:
How does one tackle a sin that reoccur every time? Even after prayer and consecration, when you still find your self in sins that you are aware of, what's the way out??
Of course, you must need to go forward from where you find yourself currently.

If you see yourself deep in sin and realises it yourself, then you can be redeemed. Our proverbs says that when a mad man realises and gets disgusted by his dresses, smelly enviroment and his deeds; such mad man is already getting better.

Therefore I must commend any person who speaks out because such a person is tired of living in sin.

Quickly:
The most potent solution to recuurent sinfulness is to CONFESS PUBLICLY AND HOLISTICALLY.
WHEN YOU CONFESS YOUR SIN PUBLICLY, YOU FEEL SHAME AND HUMILIATED BUT, THAT IS THE HIGHEST THING YOU CAN DO AS A SINNER AND, IT HELP YOU BREAK LOOSE FROM THE SHAKLES OF THE POWER OF SIN THAT THRIVES IN SECRECY.

NEXT IS FOR SPIRIT-FILLED BROTHERS TO PRAY FOR YOU IN ORDER FOR GODLY SPIRIT TO TKE OVER.

JAMES CHAPTER 5:15-16 IS INSTRUCTIVE ON THIS MATTER.

hopefulLandlord:
I'm afraid this is where I come in

I totally disagree with what you're implying here, I put it to you that you're ignoring biblical verses and talking off a tangent


saying the Pharoah deserved what God did to him. Okay, sure, maybe he was a complete dick. What about the fact that God went through and killed all of the Egyptian first born children? God literally made the Pharoah just let that happen because he kept hardening his heart. It makes no sense from a moral standpoint to threaten to kill someone's children if they don't give you something, but every time they have a chance to give you what you want you make it impossible. Hell, it never made sense to me either way why he killed their children. He's supposed to literally be the moral authority for all of humanity. He's supposed to judge us and tell us how we did in life when we die, but he goes around killing innocent children just because their parents bleeped up.

"But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go" (and variations upon that theme). God repeatedly forced Pharaoh to refuse, then punished Pharaoh (for the coerced refusal) by sending various plagues, up to and including murdering all the firstborn children of Egypt.

And to add insult to injury, after he had slaughtered the children and permitted Pharaoh to free the Israelites, "the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians." So, at any time, God could have simply moved them to let the Israelites go, without need for inflicting rains of frogs and bloody rivers, killing all their livestock, and murdering their children. But he waited to do that until after he had mostly sated his sadistic tendencies.

(I say "mostly", for a couple of chapters later, he once again abrogated Pharaoh's free will, "hardening his heart" to make him pursue the Israelites.)

You would have been absolutely correct if you are referring to a fellow human.
But where you wants to use human code of conduct to judge God; I must say you aren't being articulate.
Pot can not tel the poter what to do and how to do it. No mater how much civilized you think yourself to have attained, do not arogate to your "poor" self the position of a reviewer who has the ability and intellect to review God own doings...

Christianity EtcRe: The Reason For The Resurrection - Joseph Prince by eodavids(m): 4:25pm On Apr 16, 2017
Horus:
The truth is that those so-called wise and prudent theologians know absolutely nothing about the so-called resurrection simply because it never happened. Easter, or the celebration of the resurrection, is merely a tradition, a tradition that you have been taught from childhood, and coming into maturity you have accepted it because that is what you were taught. That is what you read bout. That is what your parents made you observed every Easter Sunday. Thus, you continued to go along with it and before you knew it, you had carelessly assumed what you now believe without question or proof. Easter is the feast of feasts celebrated in honor of the risen Christ. You have even reached the point where you will defend vigorously and emotionally your belief, a belief that can lead you straight to hell.

It has become human nature to flow with the stream, and to go along with the crowd, to believe and perform like those around you. And, even when you stumble on the truth, you will not believe because like the majority of the people, you stubbornly refuse to believe what you are unwilling to believe. There is an old saying that says:

He who is convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.
Your disbelief is not strange, but the courage with which you display it in public is pitiable.

No fake things last long. If Easther is a fictional celebration; it would not have lasted this long. Go and conduct a proper study on how time wean off fictional practices.

You may do better by stopping this habbit of flaunting your atheism publicly with pride. It does not make you, rather it mars you.

FamilyRe: Men, Why Did You Stop Marrying Two Or More Wives? by eodavids(m): 9:31pm On Apr 15, 2017
This matter in discussion here makes sense.

There is a school of thought that propounds the notion that if our societies return to such that a man Marie's multiple wives, the society shall become better thannit is.

Now, without long story:
The only person who can Mary more than one wife is the person who married the first wife customarily.

Customarily means that the marriage is purely traditional. (Note that traditional includes also sharia law-marriage)

For those who married in the court, marriage registry and or in the Church, their marriage is covered by the Marriage Act (M. A) and if any person whose marriage is covered by the Act attempts to marry another while the first marriage subsists, then such a person is attempting Bygamy which is an offence punishable by imprisonment...

Barbz4u101:
But God created man in his own image, why did he condemned the Egyptians,and favoured the Israelites?? so are Egyptians not created in God's imagehuh
Sorry, you went out of the point, into the bush:

Note that the Egyptians you sympathize with were cruel and play 'god' without recognizing the only God that created all.
For their cruelty and stubbornness even while the Almighty displayed his powers in their land, they chased after the people whom God had set tree from slavery. The Egyptians thus died in their bid to play God.

But in the case of Nebuchadnezzar, he acknowledged God Almighty when the Most High displayed His powers before him and Nebuchadnezzar was not destroyed....

Do you now see the way God operates, by searching men's hearts?

@ refiner, God exists.. He's not partial at all. We live in a wicked dreadful world, that's why God allows us to go through some moulding which u will think is suffering. God is building up for a battle ahead. And he's trying to make u stronger, not doubt him.
Unless u change this mindset of yours and accept u are in a training field. My dear the future will be bleak.
Embrace God, and learn from what u are going through
It's meant to make u stronger and wiser.
Don't resign your fate and future into great despair. It won't help u.

Am a witness of God' s favour.. But I went through hot scalding furnace to get to this point.. I nearly fell by the way side, but thank God I picked myself up and continued the race. Cause we are going through a journey, which will definitely come to an end at the right time.
Because I turned back to God, my life took a drastic turn into somewhere brighter and rosy.
Don't loose hope yet. Be strong. The end of your doubts is closer than u think.
God always come thru at the end.
Well said. God bless you for the wisdom you've applied.
Christianity EtcRe: Don't You Think God Is A Partial God? by eodavids(m): 11:40pm On Apr 10, 2017
Please, I want you to be convinced that God Almighty is not partial.

ONE THING YOU MUST UNDERSTAND IS THAT, IN ADDITION TO THE GRACE BY WHICH WE OBTAIN SPECIAL GOODNESS OF GOD; THE BIBLE ALSO SAYS GOD SEARCHET THE HEART OF EVERY MAN/WOMAN...

Now, it will interest you to know that while God search the hearts of men, (just like your heart is already search and understood by HIM with regards to this thorny question of yours); He ascertains why each person acts the way he/she does and thereby determine the immediate as well as the eternal repercussion of such persons deeds.

You mentioned Peter and Iscariot:
If you are a good Bible student, you will realise that peter only acted with best of intentions as any human could have done to fight to death in defence of his master's right to life which is about being terminated gruesomely even by condemning the righteous to die like a sinner. That was a good Man's approach to injustice being meted to his innocent and righteous master; but that, unknown to peter was exactly opposite to Gods plan, and eventhogh Christ rebuked peter previously, describing peter as being used by the devil, peter still continued on that conviction of his that a righteous man like his master should not be killed the notorious sinner way.
A great mystery occurred when Peter denied Christ. Pls if you are christian, read that account again in Matthew CH. 26 and see that Christ himself supernaturally changed Peter's mind by devine force which only God understands by which peter forgot his resolve and conviction to die protecting the innocent master.
It was not Peter's will that played out when he denied the master Jesus-but it rather was the powerful decree of Christ that came to pass in order to avoid a catastrophic event that will result in physical warfare where peter would fight with physical weapon and we all know that the rest of the Apostles would have followed suit in defence of the master and that will lead to physical blood shed between the unborn Christianity and the Roman government and if the roman Soldiers attempts to kill the Apposles, Christ would have been tempted to invite the legions of Angels....

If you go along with with me in the thought am introducing to you, you will agree with me that that is exactly contrary to God's plan for the salvation of man. So while Peter advocated and planned that approach which run contrary to God's devine plan, Christ decreed that peter shall deny him and, even though peter doubted it, God's decree must come to pass even against the will of man...

On the other hand, Judas pre-meditated and in fact planned the betrayal of his master as opposed to Peter's predetermined plan to defend his innocent master. Judas's betrayal is simply a further display of his glutony for filty lurcer (money) by which the Bible records that he stole often from the treasury.

So please, if you are a judge, will you categorize the two as same?
In law, to establish the commission of certain offences, there is something very important that must be proven- 'mens rea'

You as a prosecutor must prove mens rea which is the state of mind of the accused prior to and during the commission of the alleged offence. None proof of mens rea as state of mind of the accused means the accused isn't guilty...

It follows therefore that the state of mind is important before you apportion blame to any person and we can decifer that Judas who refused to repent from his theft on the purse of the treasury had his mind made up to continue even to the point of collecting 30 PCs of silver as blood money on the head of his mater; while peter was determined to fight for his master and had no bad intentions ...

I know that the question on whether God is not partial came from a troubled mind...
Pls let me know if you are following, then I will enlighten you on the gigantic difference BTW David and Saul..

Remain blessed!

Murder;

TV/MoviesRe: Court Orders Seizure Of "Okafor's Law", Omoni Oboli's Film by eodavids(m): 6:43pm On Mar 28, 2017
Am excited for one thing:
That the Laws of Intellectual property which we are lamenting over its non- Observance and Enforcement is being enforced herein.

Every day, the IP laws are infringed upon by both the schooled and the illiterates. But the right owners as well as the government fail to take on the infringers under civil or criminal cases.

The Copyright Act, the Patent and Designs Act, the Trademarks Act, all Laws of The Federation of Nigeria, 2004; and the laws of Trade secrets and Confidential Information are all laws meant to encourage creativity, inventions and hard work so as to stimulate industrial growth and technological development.

My concern is that this important law has been underutilized and unpopular in Nigeria.

If you look at another aspect of infringement of intellectual property, one may shed tears. For instance, plagiarism is thriving in this country side by side with our well structured Copyright Law. Students now instead of embarking on proper research would rather copy from other existing works and claim to be the owners. We see people in authority using words and or phrases originated by someone else without acknowledging the originators.

These acts of infringements must be made to stop because that is the only way Nigeria can grow by encouraging creativity and inventions.

Christianity EtcRe: Is Water Baptism Really Important? by eodavids(m): 3:03pm On Mar 26, 2017
ifenes:
Water baptism is an ancient practice long before Christianity that signifies rebirth. The Egyptians used the water from the nile to "purify" new born babies or a way to initiate new converts into secret cults. A way to be born into a new way of life. Christianity obviously adopted all these pagan ways of life, including " sun - day" worship of the Sun
Pls, retract this your write up.
Baptism is not a copy from any other creed.
Do not vulgarize our Religion. We are proud of Christianity. So you should officially retract the vulgarization you made.

Moderators: caution this fellow.
Christianity EtcRe: Is Water Baptism Really Important? by eodavids(m): 2:54pm On Mar 26, 2017
Immerssion baptism is sacrosanct to Christian living/practice.

Matt. 28:19-20;
Mark. 16:15-16.
The above is known as the great commission. You should be interested in knowing that JESUS-CHRIST did not commission baptism until after his resurrection. So, it is a very important command which Jesus gave when he was no longer human.

Take note that the Apostles did not convert any single person into Christianity without baptising such a convert.
Examples includes
1, The 3000 people in Acts chapter 2;
2, The Ethopian Eunock in Acts chapter 8;
3, The Jailor in Acts chapter 9;
Connelius in Acts chapter 10.

There is nothing God will tell people through a statue. Whatever God has to say to people in the world today is through Christ Jesus, who will judge the quick and the dead.

Sit you wife down and explain to her that you love her so much and that is why you have shown your self a considerate husband all along.

Keeping quiet is not advisable in this circumstance and what you say to her to must not be out of anger, but politely mixed with smiles.

I know exactly what you are going through because your Dear wife is taking things for granted.

Educate her that values are more appreciated when they are lost, and she should immagine the situation when you finally change and make her face the music she is asking for.

In a nutshell, you should talk to her more, for a long time, before she faces the music. So that when it starts (if unfortunately she refuse to reason well), then you will only refer her to your days of warnings.

NB: please show her more love with God's word advices, I still believe she will make amends.
