easymancfc:
they could be step brothers by being Josephs children from another marriage.. they could be cousins by being Mary's relative 's children or Joseph's relative's children

So, you are ready to assert to any other possibility, even the possibility of Joseph marrying another woman in order to justify that Mary never had sex with Joseph. Wow! I guess in your argument, you believe there's zero probability of Joseph having sex with Mary, even though you don't have a proof that erodes all doubt! Hmmm. It is well.

It's okay to interprete scriptures differently in order to support your view, but I believe it's best to read scriptures with an open heart for the Holy Spirit to help bring illumination to what you read in scriptures.

Now my question to Catholics: Do you believe with the whole of your heart that Joseph was married to Mary all his life and never had sex with her? The Bible recorded in Matthew 1:25 that Joseph did not know her (Mary) "till" she had brought forth her firstborn Son. Going by your assertions, what do you think the word 'till' meant in the verse cited? Also, why stress 'firstborn Son', if Jesus Christ remained her only child?? In all sincerity, you think Joseph never knew (had sex with) Mary & it would not be glaringly stated in the Bible??

It shouldn't be about defending your assertions but your desire to know the truth.

Regards.

Hey guys, would anyone be kind enough to give me a very good link where I can watch this particular match live (& if possible, subsequent matches too). I'm currently in the USA & miss watching soccer(manutd fan)....American football is not sth I fancy.

That moment u just want 2 read people's ranting 2 console ursef dat u ain't alone with d way u feel. Lolzzz

#MoneySpeaking!

He also had a gud shot saved by d keeper. In other news Manutd 7 LA Galaxy 0 (Herera is gud)!

Moyes is a below average coach with nothing 2 offer than breaking all d records in a negative way! The earlier he is sacked, d better 4d club. In addition, Welbeck shud be sold 2 Enyimba cos he is 2 'brainless' 4 manutd! !

Like I've mentioned in this forum b4, the integrity of Prof. Okojie is unquestionable. If u merit it, u'd get it. The criteria 4 selection has been discussed here as well & itz still d same.
Wish u guys d very best in ur future endeavours. Havin a 1st Class is a means 2 an end, not an end in itself! God bless Nigeria!! Cheers!!!

Gud day, erudite Scholars!

Appalling! Pls, watz d connection btw stripping people naked & making dem pay 4 their crime. Is it 2 humiliate dem or there is more 2 it?

Wonder why d insincerity of d govt is not visible 2 all & sundry!

Prof. Okwuasaba on point!

Van Persie, always doing d damage wen needed!

Nice thread!

Yes, u are right. Itz d same Henry, & datz d dad u described; he is a very gud friend of mine.
Rest well, Henry. So, cool, calm and humble fellow. Was wit him 2 days before d unfortunate incident. All I remember vividly is his smile. He was truly d pride of d dad. In d words of d dad "I'm contented wit d fact that I did a gud job bringing him up in d way I shud. I know he is proud 2 have been my son while on earth." We honour u, Henry. U died in service; nothing can be greater!!!

G_Syntax: Good evening peeps. This is indeed a very sad news. It is with trembling hands that I write to ask this question. I happened to have met a guy in 2010 who bears exactly the same name as that of the fallen corp member. However, the picture above, maybe cos it is a little blurred, does not fully look like him if I remember correctly. Oh, how I pray it's not him.

A guy who goes by name Henry Amadi-Emina walked into our office in Central Business District, Abuja, in 2010 to make some findings about doing his masters degree abroad. He read Architecture or a related course in the uni and would want to do his masters in the same field. I think he attended Covenant University or one of the private schools in Nigeria. At that time, I think he was doing his IT in the nearby NNPC Towers. Please can someone tell me that the Henry I am describing is different from the one everyone is writing tribute to!

Early this year (3 years after I met Henry), I went to a Full Gospel meeting in our estate and met one man, Mr Amadi-Emina. I asked him if he knows a boy called Henry who has the same surname as his and he answered in the affirmative that he is his son. A very peaceful man!

Please can someone who knows Henry tell me that I am describing someone else?

I was with him (Henry) just 3 days ago. My heart goes out 2d dad. He is a masters degree holder in architecture 4rm covenant university. So so so sad!!!!

It is an obvious fact that d Nigerian public education system has gone beyond collapsed! D state of d universities re despicable in different perspectives. I only wish d earned allowance issue isn't part of d reason 4d ASUU strike, cos govt has capitalised on it in giving ppl an impression that d lecturers re just being selfish.
Great tinz re born out of minds willing 2 make sacrifices. We live in a country where our leaders will confidently make public their commitment 2 eat cassava bread only, in a bid 2 support d need 2 patronise it, but re not willing 2;
-refuse d use of generators in their homes in a bid 2 show their passion for 24hrs electricy project.
-send their children 2 public schools in a bid 2 show they re committed 2 revamping d educational system.
-visit our public hospitals, rather than going abroad 4 treatment, just 2 let us know d health-state of d average man is important 2 them.
-ply our roads in their deplorable state 2 tell us they re one of us.... I cud go on & on.
If u can't wear d shoe, u'd never have an idea where itz hurting. Who is deceiving who Our value system as a nation has been greatly watered down. A true leader is consumed about d needs of d ppl, not his needs.
Wit more emphasis placed on 'paper qualification' than d product u've become cos of ur education, ppl can hardly see d need 4 overhauling d educational system. My one piece! Peace!!

I luv everything about chemistry. Itz d simplest subject but so many find it difficult cos they re not willing 2 understand it, but just want 2 cram their way thru. I guess most teachers do not help in understanding it as well!! U can hardly cram ur way thru chemistry!!!
Made a 1st class in chemistry(industrial) wit minimal effort on my part, cos I understood d basics.

Very informative post. Thanks. The one about RPM is so true. I'm really enjoying d fuel economy of my car cos of dat, & I also avoid sudden acceleration/deceleration. Thanks again.

When excellence speaks, every other thing gives way. Dis is d kind of post I luv 2c on nairaland; I'm inspired!

Only those that wear d shoe know where it hurts. With d children of our leaders comfortably schooling abroad, I'm not surprise d strike is still on!

Shut down Abuja indeed! All these our extremely selfish politicians; only when something will direct affect them, that's when they cry foul more.
If really the right thing should be done, the so-called fake APC ought to be the one duly registered why the so-called real APC shud source for another name. While they were making all the noises over the media about their merger & new name, a fast one was played on them & a different APC was formed. It has nothing to do with secretariat, it should be first-come first-serve issue.
Anyway, whatever happens doesn't really concern me, cos I've stopped believing in the sincerity of Nigerian politicians. I doubt if the masses are the ones they are really out to help! Mstchew!!

Signed!

Waoh! That's great. Did any of them get there through scholarship or they were all self financed?

My heart was virtually in my mouth during d last game. Choi! Advantage Djukovic...Deuce, Advantage Djukovic...Deuce, Advantage Djukovic...Deuce, Advantage Murray...and game! Waoh!!

So happy 4 Murray! Wat others couldn't do in 77yrs. I luv it wen people break records (+ve ones o o)!!

There is always a starting point. Nice step!

Lwkmd! Very funny thread. My friend once sed, 'if ur girlfriend has never farted in ur presence, & vise versa, that u guys re still being unreal & not very close'. Lolzzz..

Waoh! So impressed with Nuhu Ribadu's speech. This is d kind of speech that brought Obama into limelight!! Unfortunately, dis is Nigeria where sentiment is d order of d day & d system doesn't work(& our Youths don't read. Lolzzz)... A day shall come in dis country wen we'd judge ppl purely based on merit & past record; I believe!!!

Well articulated! Wen a man's loyalty is to God & d woman's loyalty is also to God, both of them will surely meet in God & have a good marriage!! A three-fold cord cannot be easily broken!!!

They don't need 2 claim victory; action speaks louder than words. We can tell who is winning 4rm d relative peace & no news of bomb-blast we've been getting!
