Jozzy4:
Growing up to know right from wrong. Some people today are theives, prostitutes, fornicators etc . Due to sin that surrounded them, such ones if they died as a baby would have gone to heaven , isn't it ?

It seems you are a pessimist. You only.see the dark side. Have you thought about the fact that the child could grow up to be a light to her family, a model child, successful, God loving?

Jozzy4:
Retract, you don't even understand the Bible yourself.

The Bible says abstain from blood, abstain from fornication , can someone says fornication only means sex through the vagina, if it's through the Anus . It's not fornication ? What difference is there in drinking alcohol through the vein when the doctor says avoid alcohol ?

How come the JW doctrine on blood transfusion has been relaxed? Did the Bible change?

Jozzy4:
Do you believe when a baby dies, they have no sin and would automatically go to heaven ?

From your premise, the conclusion is that you should allow the baby die since he has no sin?

Jozzy4:
Coming from someone who belief dead babies go to heaven
Would God be happy if the child grow up and become an hellfire candidate when dying as a child would have made him an heaven candidate ?

What would make the child a "hellfire" candidate?

jibovico:
Good and Courageous parents who stood for their beliefs no matter what. May Jehovah reward your stand. Most times we watch movies and always align with the character who stood for his/her beliefs and we applaud. Why don't we now apply such? Well done Faithful parents.

Sarcasm I guess. It has to be sarcasm

JustCurious:
That child may be ostracized, eventually by the church.... and treated as an infidel.

We are humans, first, before embracing religion. Let's remain humane.

Ostracized? Do you think the child will care about that when he or she is old enough to understand that the people he calls parents and their brethren preferred him dead?

As long as God that brought that child to life doesn't see him as an infidel, every other reaction is background noise.

Ifakiland:
The main problem with this country is people forming their beliefs on others, thinking theirs is the best. Now you've subjected the baby to a life of neglect and hate, cos now people dat are supposed to show it love will show it hatred cos of the blood transfusion, it will be treated as an outcast.
For the people saying the right thing was done, I hope you can adopt the child when her parents finally rejects her... Hypos.

So do you think it would have been best to let the baby die to avoid hatred from the parents?

If it's your baby and the doctors tell you that there is a chance of survival with blood transfusion, would you rather watch the baby die? Is that actually what the JW doctrine stands for? The same doctrine that has been reversed.

DNSPro:
not when the belief makes no sense...

Na so one pastor dey say make him members no take drugs but some people that went to his house said if you the the nutritious drinks and food in his fridge, u go bow...

The followers do not even know if their leaders had done blood transfusions in secret to save their own children. Will they tell them?

That's how the church denomination that banned the used of tv then...some of their leaders had TVs in their houses.

That's why it's better to understand the Bible and have a personal relationship with God for yourself instead of gullibly following unfounded and manmade doctrines.

Acheron:
You expect a grown man to wash plates used by his brother, wife and kid(s)?

How unreasonable can some people be?

If he's a grown man, he should get his own apartment and stop forming inside another person's house.

His entitlement mentality is annoying. Who told him it is his sister's job to wash his clothes? As per personal maid.

The babe was obviously tired of the nonsense and couldn't wait to rub the marriage in his face.

He should pay a maid to do his laundry and not convert his sisters to house helps.

player007:
Do you want the Truth?
Both of you are Mad!!!
What happened to your vows?
Do you realize how stupid you sound?
Get your marriage working again
Go on dates
See movies
Make Love to her in the kitchen,
the car,or even outside the house!!!
Go back to the REASON why you choose her as your WIFE.
Play Scrabble together.
What you are having for the other woman is LUST not love.
Do you even have any idea how much this will brake your wife? how much she will hate ALL MEN if you go through with this?
Avoid contact with the other woman while you build your HOME. The hell, stop her from coming to your House!!!!

Someone that wanted to divorce his wife because of salt.

shakmati:
Mehn! It's like no one would help me here. We have only 1 life to live and I am no longer enjoying it here. Why do you guys keep insisting I remain?

You have already made up your mind to leave, what advice do you seek? A soft landing for the divorces and the effects on family? Your children will be most scarred by this because their daddy suddenly switched partners and now their "aunty" is now their mummy.

If Angela was the one you really loved and you knew her before your wife, why then did you marry your wife instead of her?

This incompatibility and boredom you mention, and your desire to leave...is it because you have an option (Angela)? What if there was no Angela, wouldn't you have worked on your marriage and spiced it up? Work on your marriage and stop looking for an easy way out.

Now you want to leave the woman you promised to love and cherish because of boredom?

lavylilly:
I am amazed you talk like this, look at the time he posted 1:24pm and the second time 1:39pm he posted a space of 15minutes that goes to show that he received so many mails. Besides, he has gone viral on all social media. A pastor's wife indicated interest and she deactivated after the comments almost made her run mad.

That's why I said that only a fool will fall for it...exposing themselves on social media where they can be easily traced and found out. Social media that things go viral fast, one person will now share details, damning the consequences.

Only a fool will fall for this. Married women who cheat are smarter than this...covering their tracks is a skill. You think they will post their pictures here or even inbox you.

But again...only a fool will fall for this.

GraGra247:
Thank you!! A childish irresponsible hooligan appears from nowhere and every brainless gullible youth is forming clout around him.

I don't even get the followership, purpose...idea behind it. It's just like people following like zombies

Ladylite:
Not exactly misleading. We have too many examples of those who married wrong. And since there are more breakups than marriages... They have more wisdom to share.

Marriage is overrated when you marry the wrong person and people no longer want to be told what to do anymore.... So everyone jumps in according to their own assumptions and so have a piece of advice to give others who are not married.

Married couples who discover their mistakes after 10year often warn their single siblings or friends who come online to share a nugget of wisdom to the rest of us.

Finally, until marriages are done by biblical standards marital relationships will only get worse.

I guess you are married to know that marriage is overrated.

I think he gets the point

Lamanii22:
Awwwwn... Thank you so much Hun... I really appreciate you..

You are welcome

Lamanii22:
Great article... But that number 20 though... Is there a way the love between your kids and husband be equal? Like what can one do to make it equal.. I don't want children coming between me and my husband... Or is it inevitable?

They won't if you don't let them. I love my daughter so so much...I feel responsible for her. However, I am still deeply in love with my husband.

It takes a conscious effort not to focus on your child and neglect your husband. You have to make the choice.

Jewessgratitude:
What's this one saying? That you're not aware you should do medicals when about to get married? In this age and time when all sorts of disease is flying all over the place? Hmm...I never knew people who don't take health matters seriously still exist.
This is the reason why some newly wedded ladies get to find out their HIV status when they go for atenatal.
Some its Hepatitis and they begin to wonder how come.

Please dont say this kind of thing in public place again. I take God name beg you. Haba!

Before you jump the gun, read to understand rather than to react.

He just proposed and she said "yes". He didn't say they had started the wedding plans. Do people do medicals after accepting/making a proposal?

Besides, when you are about to get married, the church conducts medicals during the counselling period because it is believed that the couple will only begin having sex after marriage.

That I am a small girl.

That I entered and finished from uni on time.

That I married early.

That I am young (this has made me have issues at work with people thinking I am just a small girl that should probably be calling them auny..lol...not knowing I am older than them)

I stopped aging at 20...

Breather77:
Thanks brother. I'll try zenith bank and see how it goes.

The data page has the expiry date.

Opening accounts was my job for about three years. So I can tell you that an expiry id cannot be used. Not even as an identity to withdraw from the bank with a cheque.

Bros we are not here to show our chest, they said new year pix and not chest.

Chest, abi breast?

MichealKin50:
Imaima

I am not aware that when a man proposes, the next thing is medicals. When it's not a job offer.

If you want to do medical tests, that's between both of you to decide. You can ask a medical practitioner.

It's your church that conducts one as part of the requirements for getting married.

Congrats on your engagement

Many guys are not living in the real world.

A good number of them were not brought up to respect women.

Her orientation is different from yours. It will take a lot of conscious effort from here to be on the same page with you as per your collective responsibility and how she can reduce the load on you with her own imput and support.

Who sleeps with the lights on for God's sake??

Nice one.

If they check him too, he may have cheated on her a couple of times...more than once. But he's feeling like a saint...lol. His own is waiting for him in front

No. To avoid unnecessary envy and jealousy or demands

I won't INSULT or berate U.
From Ur comment I already know your AGE.
I'm already MARRIED.
....and I am speaking from Experience.
And for Your Information, my WIFE is the most reasonable LADY on Earth.
Despite her Busy schedules, she still has time for my parents.

In Fact, She's Overtly ladened with Ideas and Occupied. Her conversations yield LIFE.
...and not these "twerking send me recharge card Ladies".....
PARENTS should be cared for.
Because if not for them, that ur HUSBAND or WIFE of yours wouldn't have been developed to that marriageable level.
After all, how many YEARS do they have left.
I care for my In-LAWS a lot.
But my WIFE has this MAGIC TOUCH on my FAMILY...
She has won the HEART of Every member of my FAMILY.
In fact, in any argument between myself and her, she defeats me with their support.
One day, I jokingly told her I would lock her out, could you Believe my DAD threatened to call SARS for me , telling me that he is also married to my WIFE....

That should be the DREAM of every LADY hoping to get married into a New Family.
....and not to see marriage as a WARFARE, where missiles are released abruptly.

The problem is ladies entering marriage with the mindset of division instead of unity. They should see how they can be a source of joy to their husband and his family in extension.

The people I look up to in these areas do these things effortlessly because it comes from the kind of person they are and what they have inside of them.

One of my sis inlaws would always organize stuffs that bring her husband and his brothers together when she notices any kind of tension. If you see her, she's very flashy and sophisticated, not someone you expect to care but she's very well brought up. She cannot see division around her. She will push her husband until he moves for resolution.

Marriage is not boyfriend/girlfriend that you can avoid inlaws. Knowing how to manage them should be a prayer point...lol especially for the difficult ones. Who a wife truly is will always be obvious when she gets married.
