Religion / Re: The Difference Between Being A Christian And A Born Again Christian. by Freksy(m): 1:53am On Feb 27, 2017
If anyone you can see physically - flesh and blood - tells you he is born again, then he certainly does not know what is meant to be born again.

We all on earth today were first born of flesh and thus we are flesh and only fit for earthly life. Born again is a rebirth, but of spirit. It'll make one fit to live in heaven, since flesh can't be there. It's a show of ignorance when a man in the flesh says he is born again.

What is begotten of flesh is flesh; what is begotten of spirit is spirit. Such a rebirth only happens when a faithful Christian dies and is resurrected to heaven with a spirit body, since flesh and blood can't exist in the spirit realm must like fish can't exist on land.

When we were first born, we had no choice. When one is born again he has no choice too. God does the choosing, ours is to ensure we are faithful to him till death. YOU CAN'T BORN YOURSELF. SOMEONE ELSE - A SPIRIT THIS TIME WILL BORN YOU..... you will BE BORN AGAIN.

Sorry for ask this boring question, why Do Body Guards Stand In Front Of God's Altar When Pastor's Are Preaching? Is there any bible verse that support it?

Please kindly educate me on this topic. May God bless us all.

Don't be offended by my poor English-speaking.


Cc Brother Seun

Because they know it's their altar, not God's and hence must put men to guard them.

What those men are to human altar are what angels were to God's altar.

It's your right to know how much he earns. It's not his money., but family's.

He should not even embark on any major expense without your knowledge - there should be family budget.

Everyone's role in the family is important. No one has anything & everything should be accounted for.

Regeneration is a product of evolution, it aids the organism survive in its environment, but it is different from evolution.

I thought regeneration had nothing to do with evolution.


For example some species of wall gecko store fat content's in their tales, this helps them survive when there is a lack of food, as they can depend on this fat storage.Hence aiding there survival, that is evolution.

Thank you the learned! Here & now I have known what is evolution.

Here, you have unknowingly contradicted what you said earlier by implying evolution is responsible for regeneration. If regeneration is a product of evolution, as you claim, OP wants to know what prevents EVOLUTION from regenerating amputated limbs; after all, it generated them when there was none.

How simple minded are you? Evolution takes thousands and millions of years, all organisms are constantly evolving. If you're waiting to see it happen fully, you'll have to hang around for the next two million years, and then check.

Whenever fruit bearing plants blossom, what do you see on their canopies?

You see flowers and fruits at different stages of development - one thing that will soon become another.

If macro evolution were true, the earth would be littered with all sorts and different stages of intermediary organisms - ALL AROUND US.

It's either it never happened or the tree was chopped off & the chain broken. Who/what hibernated the process?

As insects & bacteria are numerous, so numerous would various intermediaries have been AROUND US.

You failed to see the sarcasm in the post you responded to.

It requires a faith bigger than the universe to believe those fits were achieved by a blind chance & purposeless process called EVOLUTION.

The question is: did evolution foreknow the process will discontinue in our time, so it wisely gave organisms reproduction mechanisms for procreation?

Since u nor knw book enough to know what regeneration is n wat evolution is.

Here u go.

All organisms, including humans, have the ability to regenerate something in the body. But the process is much more developed in lower organisms such as plants, protists -- unicellular organisms such as bacteria, algae, and fungi — and many invertebrate animals such as earthworms and starfish. These organisms can grow new heads, tails, and other body parts when injured.
Scientists don't know why mammals don't have the same ability to grow new limbs. But they think it is because mammals have more complex biological structures; limb regeneration would require sophisticated controls to ensure that limbs and organs don't grow out of control. Humans, for example, are already equipped with safety mechanisms to ensure that individual cells don't grow uncontrollably. But these mechanisms wear down as a person ages and cancer is often the result.
Nevertheless, mammals do regenerate skin, muscle, and blood. Scientists are just beginning to learn about other types of cells, such as those in the brain and blood, that also regenerate. Further study of the phenomenon might lead to a way of growing replacement organs and limbs outside the body.
Not all organisms regenerate in the same way. In plants and organisms like hydra and jellyfish, missing parts are replaced by reorganizing neighboring tissues into whatever parts have been cut off. Animals with more complex bodies usually regenerate parts by producing a specialized bud, or blastema, at the site of amputation. The blastema supplies the tissue necessary for the regenerated part.
The regenerated body part is not always the same as what was lost. Many insects regenerate abnormally small legs from which some segments may be missing.
Tadpole tails, for example, typically grow back to about only half their original length. And regenerated parts often differ in details. A regenerated lizard tail, for example, contains a cartilaginous tube instead
of the vertebrae in the original.


Evolution

ev·o·lu·tion
ˌevəˈlo͞oSH(ə)n/
noun
1.
the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth.



Now dumb head hope u understand.

Evolution & Regeneration involve changes, growths and developments.

In regeneration there is evolution, true or false?

Regeneration = to create or form again.

Organisms, with all their parts, are thought to have been formed through evolution.

Based on this thought, op wants to know why limbs formed through evolution can't grow or be formed again by same process - evolution.

since when did monkeys stop evolving into humans?

When the sex organs (plug & socket), sex cells, sex drive & everything else associated with reproduction/procreation/propagation were introduced by the almighty and wise EVOLUTION.

You think EVOLUTION gave us those things mistakenly or just for fun

If you expect to see a fish that's about to become a bird, or a monkey that will soon change to a human, then you'll wait in vain & forever be disappointed.

Family / Re: My Wife Spat On My Face This Morning, What Should I Do? by Freksy(m): 6:33am On Sep 13, 2016
nameerfhtennek:
It's more than 20minutes, I'm still unable to put words together to begin this story. I will try keep it simple and necessarily detailed so everyone will understand the true picture of what happened, why against my belief that writing personal experiences on social media is immature, I had to still write mine. Let's just say I'm not thinking right now, maybe I'm so upset but truth is, I need your advice.

I'm writing this thread seated at the back of a Hilux truck just outside our apartment. Yaa, that me in the picture. You see, today is EID and believe me I should be resting in the house since I'm not working today. Days like this only come by 6times in a whole year and more than anything, I would have loved resting than being out here.

It was yesterday evening, she called and said she her driver were headed to my office. She wanted to pick some stuffs around my office. Yaa, I forgot to say this is Saudi Arabia. If you know Saudi quite well, you will agree with me that a husband will definitely get exhausted running errands for his wife or the family. I was not in the mood for shopping but she wanted to shop. She got upset that I didn't want to accompany her shopping.

She did her shopping alone and returned few minutes before I closed from work. We headed home. Unknown to me, I forgot my internet router in my office because I was rushing to get home and continue with my FIFA 16.

You had no time for her shopping because you were not in the mode. You had been at work, no time for her. You rushed to get home not to make out time for her, but for YOUR FIFA 16.

MARRIAGE REQUIRES SACRIFICE. Besides, did you explain things to her and perhaps try to reschedule the shopping?


Her internet service expired some days back so we were using mine.

While playing game, she walked into the seating room and demanded for my router. Mine, not hers. With her tone and facial expression demanding the router, I didn't respond because there was an indication that she was warming up for a quarrel. I wasn't just in the mood
That it was yours mattered not. In fact, it's equally hers. Your LACK OF RESPONSE was unloving and very disrespectful! You saw what was coming but did nothing to prevent it because again; "you were not in the mode."


The thing is, she is very skilled in extending her anger phases. That is one thing I can't understand till today. Believe me, it was not like this while we were dating.

We all have personality flaws. I am sure if given opportunity, your wife will also tell us about your strange behaviour(s).


Sorry, I forgot to tell you I married my university girlfriend, she years my junior and the same department. Ya, I'm one of those guys that dated and planned for the future with their girls at the same time. God blessed that plan but at this point I don't understand everything that has been happening for the past one year plus since we got married. She repeatedly demanded that I handed over my router to her but I was quiet. Meanwhile, it occurred to me that I forgot the router in my office the minute she first asked about it. Truth is, I actually needed to use the internet that night for my online FIFA.

By virtue of marital bond, this lady, no matter how older you are than her, is your MATE, not your younger sister or "school junior. I have not seen her been treated deservedly.


After several times of asking for the router and no response from me, she took the TV remote and switched off the TV. She walked straight to the kitchen and hid the remote. I approached her in the kitchen and told her I was not ready for any kinda quarrel. We have had enough for the past one year of getting married. I then told her I forgot the router in my office, I didn't have it. I guess she didn't believe me, she never did.
Who wouldn't doubt you? Your response was not forthcoming when needed.


She told me to leave her alone. I returned back to the seating room with my heart beating fast. I knew she wanted a serious quarrel that night. After some minutes, I returned to the kitchen and requested for the remote. Then I figured out she hid it in her pant. Pretending I was passing by, I swiftly went for the remote from under her short gown and grabbed it. She didn't expect I knew where she hid it. She followed me behind and ceased the game console, second indication she wanted me to react. I do have a problem with my temper just like every human, male or female. I have also learnt to deal with it by walking away at times I feel I was going to lose it. The same reason I'm outside at this time, 9:55 pm Saudi time. She knows I have fought hard to tame my temper issues but most times, she makes deliberate efforts to have me overreact to her nags and rants.

I watched her hide the console in her pant yet again. I shuddered in obvious fear because I knew what the woman wanted, a fight. Unable to deal with it,the intimidation and the shame, I went for the console and squeezed it out from her hand while she was trying to hold it tight. That was when the trouble then started.

The trouble actually started when you failed to realize that marriage requires a lot of commitment and sacrifice for each other.

You failed to see that your wife needs you more than you need her, your work and internet games.

Think about how different things would had been if you had apologised to her for not accompanying her to shopping and reassured her of your love for her. You considered not her feelings and emotions in that regards. Would you be happy if treated that way? Oooh, you are a man and she is a woman.


She wanted a buffer to help her spill everything she had nursed in her mind. "You can kill, idiot!! You were not shown love by your parents, that is why you will squeeze your wife's hand to collect the console. They allowed you to grow up in the street without parental guidance and love." Then it came....pwaaaaaaah!!! She spat on my face!!!!!

She may be right about you been violent. It was a bit unthinkable that you squeezed your wife's hand for the remote. Can you show me the wisdom in ignoring her when she asked you for the router but chose not to ignore her seizure of the remote?

Nevertheless, I STRONGLY CONDEMN those utterances from her. Nothing justified that.

She spat at you! Very disrespectful and unruly!


God knows, I have never been spat at before, not by my parents, not by my siblings, not by anybody. " I agree I was not shown love by my parents but your Dad is a coward for running away from your mother without being there for you guys when he needed to play his roles as a father. That explains the reason you are like this", I said and walked back to the seating room.

I managed to play a few games which I lost mostly and then slept off around past 5am this morning. Around 3pm, I woke up and went to the office. Not like I had work but I needed to clear my head away from the house. If only there was alcohol in Saudi, I would have been somewhere in a hotel drinking away the shame. When I returned home by past 7pm, hungry and tired. I needed to continue my game but I could no longer find the game console and the TV remote. I asked for it and she ignored me. I managed to eat and then left the house to this truck.

You see, I love my wife more than anything, more than anyone. She is one person in the whole world I could go any length for. I love her, that was why I forgave her when she broke up with me after I left Nigeria for Saudi Arabia. She broke up with me few months after I came to Saudi and started dating another guy twice her age. She says she never expected I would come back to her after she left me but I did. I did because I saw a future with her, a future I imagined, believed in and worked towards its reality. Today we have gotten to a level where most people out there would want to be, our colleagues envy is because they believe we are privileged and blessed but what they don't know is that in the truth, I have no peace. This marriage has become my legacy and my curse.

I want to send her back to Nigeria in few days time and I hope I'm not making a mistake!!! Spitting on my face, nah nah....am so fed up!!!!

The problem you guys have is very menial, judging from your compliant. IT DOESN'T IN ANY WAY WARRANT SEPARATION OR BATTERING OF MATE.

You guys seem to live in two separate worlds. You need to do more things together. Though you have not mentioned, but possibly your wife has been complaining you don't have time for her.

It is very wrong to return from work and get hooked onto games that do not involve her. She will surely feel dejected, unloved and uncared for. It amount to having a second wife. If that is the case, peace will be scanty. It's one thing to say "I love my wife very much," and it's another to demonstrate it.

Again,. Minimise use of pronouns like 'mine/my' & 'hers'. Both of you own 'everything', yes, OUR this & that. With this mindset, everything will be replaced or renewed promptly, provided there is resources.

Note: silent does not always make for peace; it sometimes fuels crisis.

Problems must be solved not silenced over or winked at. Sometimes too we leave them to gather momentum in the name of working out of.

That one is quiet does not necessarily mean he's peaceable.

MATES NEED QUALITY AND AMPLE TIME AND GOOD COMMUNICATION WITH EACH OTHER.

Religion / Re: If God Created The Sun On The 4th Day,how Did 3 Days Come To Pass? by Freksy(m): 5:33pm On Sep 08, 2016
The moon, sun & other stars were not created in any of those seven epoch of days in Gen 1. The bible never mentioned when they were created.

What do you think constituted the material heaven & earth mentioned at Gen 1:1? The material earth, with all its elements, & the heaven - with all its stellar bodies had been in existence for untold number of years prior to preparation of the earth for life. Genesis does not discuss their birth or creation, but sequence of emergence of things as the earth was been prepared for life.

Though light STARTED EMERGING on day 3, its source(s) was eclipsed by swaddle band (thick cloud, SEE JOB 38:9). Plants needed light, not sighting of the sun literally for survival.

It was on day 4 that the source(s) of light mentioned in Gen 1:3 became discernible to an earthly observer, had one been there.

Summarily, Gen 1:3 was a call/command for appearance of light from the long existing light sources; while Gen 1:14 was announcement of appearances of the light sources. Day 4 marked the birth of solar days, as the sun could then be visible to man, had he been there. Hence , their functions as signs for seasons & solar time/day/year, were also announced.

The previous days were epochs stating intervals b/w events, not solar days.

Use of horn in Nigeria is more of habit than condition of the road or city.
Even when the road is free of traffic (human, animal or other users), we still use horn.

The most painful is when there is a logjam of vehicles and movement is impossible, a Nija driver will engage his horn so as your vehicle will suddenly & mysteriously develop wings and fly off his front.

Crime / Re: What To Do If Someone Throws Acid At You by Freksy(m): 11:09pm On May 23, 2016
dadee007:
The reason for this article is that so many people are getting attacked nowadays as so many evil people see acid as the punishment of sorts for whatever they feel offended by. So many victims in the aftermath have had their lives changed forever because of this. The victims, mainly women, do not have the prescience to know what is about to befall them and they most definitely would probably have fared better if someone had given them information on what to do in the event of such an unfortunate and unexpected eventuality.

What is an acid?

In chemistry, an acid is defined as a substance that turns litmus red, neutralizes alkalis, and such things; but for the purpose of this article, I will define for the layman thus:

An acid, (at least the ones usually employed for these dastardly acts) is a corrosive liquid that is the equivalent of liquid fire.

Yes, it is fire and it sometimes does more damage than fire itself. So have it at the back of your mind that an acid is just fire.

Many people know that if your clothes catch fire, you should drop, roll and try to smother the fire. But people also need to know what to do if it is acid that they have on them.

What to do if acid is thrown at you.

If you see any liquid thrown at you,(even if it's water) especially at your face (because this is usually the site targeted by assailants for maximum damage), and you don't have time to duck and dodge, do all these things in quick succession:

1.Use your hand to shield your face from the liquid coming towards you at the same time close your eyes. Flee and while fleeing from the source of the attack, (because they can throw more at you) shout for help as you flee and shout as loud as you can.

Now, this is the most important part so I have to explain before I say the next steps.

Concentrated acid is highly destructive. To give you a mental picture of what it can do, if a drop is dropped on someone's hand, it will start burning or "eating" the surface where it is dropped. If nothing is done to halt its progress, it would continue till it gets to the bone and if nothing is done still, it can "eat" away the bone as well.

This is to show you the power of what you might be dealing with.

If unfortunately you are hit by the liquid, what you do, and do fast, will determine the outcome. The key word here is WATER.

You need water, and you need lots of it.

2. As you flee, either shout for people to bring water, or if you know a water source like a pool that won't take too much time to get to like a running tap, head there, if you see shops, grab water and use, you really need water and you need it badly.

If you can get to running water, get there and put the affected part under running water you need to be under continuous running water for at least 30 mins. This might sound odd but don't rush to the Hospital. It is the things you do immediately in the aftermath that would determine how severe the burns will be. You must be desperate to save yourself and reduce future disfigurement. Water, Water, Water. The mistake that people make is that they douse water quite all right, but they douse just like a cup etc and thereafter, head for hospital. The acid will continue destroying the patient's tissue all the way to the hospital and might even spread to other parts because of the little water.

To buttress this point, Two female British teenage charity workers had acid thrown at them in Zanzibar, and luckily for them, they were not too far from the sea so they dashed to the sea to wash off and today, the only way you would know anything happened to them is probably from slight skin colour difference on the site of the acid attack.

3. Don't put anything like oils, creams, ointments etc. as this might adversely affect the treatment doctors will give you later. Water is all you need before you get to the hospital.

4. Remove all the jewelry, clothing and apparel which had contact with acid.

5. When you have done all these things, head for hospital.



Prevention is better than cure though, so:

As a note of caution,

Be wary of someone coming towards you with a cup, bottle etc.

Be aware and alert of your surroundings and of people moving suspiciously around you.

Watch out for people who might bear a grudge against you. And if you see them approaching menacingly, run and alert people around as you do so.
