Sexual Promiscuity or Compulsive sexual behavior Is sometimes called hypersexuality, hypersexuality disorder or sexual addiction. It's an excessive preoccupation with sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors that is difficult to control, causes you distress, or negatively affects your health, job, relationships or other parts of your life. Symptoms Some indications that you may be struggling with compulsive sexual behavior include: You have recurrent and intense sexual fantasies, urges and behaviors that take up a lot of your time and feel as if they're beyond your control. You feel driven to do certain sexual behaviors, feel a release of the tension afterward, but also feel guilt or remorse. You've tried unsuccessfully to reduce or control your sexual fantasies, urges or behavior. You use compulsive sexual behavior as an escape from other problems, such as loneliness, depression, anxiety or stress. You continue to engage in sexual behaviors that have serious consequences, such as the potential for getting or giving someone else a sexually transmitted infection, the loss of important relationships, trouble at work, financial strain, or legal problems. You have trouble establishing and maintaining healthy and stable relationships. When to seek help As you decide whether to seek professional spiritual help, ask yourself: 1.Can I manage my sexual impulses? 2. Am I distressed by my sexual behaviors? 3. Is my sexual behavior hurting my relationships, affecting my work or resulting in negative consequences, such as getting arrested? 4. Do I try to hide my sexual behavior?

Yes |
Righthussle:Accompany your tithe with a genuine faith in Christ. If you pay tithe without knowing Christ genuinely. It's all a waste. |
Kobojunkie:Are you saying giving towards the furtherance of the gospel of Christ is now a sin? |
Kobojunkie:Read my sentences very well they are clear. |
I have listened to the message. You can pay your tithe it's not unscriptural. But all the punishment for non payers are laws in the old testament. Mal: 3:7-10. In the new testament, you are no more under those laws if you default. All giving are voluntary and should be done according to how God has blessed you. I still pay tithe and I will continue but I am not under the old testament law but under grace. And tithe is not your ticket to heaven. https://www.nairaland.com/7208619/tithing-does-not-guarantee-make |
Jesus addressed the hypocrisy of the Jewish leaders in Matthew 23:23. These men interpreted the Law as commanding tithing over helping the needy. Jesus said, “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you tithe mint and dill and cumin and have neglected the weightier provisions of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness, but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others.” He is making a contrast between the importance of giving of our possessions (money or things) and living our lives in ways that make other people’s lives better. Giving for giving’s sake does little for our spiritual growth. God wants your soul saved before your money. Let your tithing be only a reflection of your love and support the furtherance of the gospel. |
Sunday Tinubu the man that claimed Tinubu is his father.

Someone groomed that girl in her prime and took away her innocence. Most times girls of that age would later realize they where taken advantage of. She would count you as one of those that destroyed her life. Though she would call you a slacker now but trust me you would do better if you can let her know she is worth more than indulging in sex at her age. Let me hint you further on sex: Sex (fornication) is beyond just two persons engaging in carnality. Sex is spiritual and there are transactions and exchanges that eyes can not see. At the end you would loose more than your gains. Jesus is coming. |
I have always said this to people do not keep quiet when you need help. Your colleagues, neighbours or a friend could be all you need to come out of that predicament. Please reach out to someone. May God send helpers to us
|
Be sure this goes through 100degrees heat before consumption because it's a recipe for microbes and lavas of insects. Jesus is coming! |
All I will say is: We don't fight for our God. Jesus is merciful. He wants his soul saved than his destruction. May he find mercy. |
Hmm |
truthfinder319:I have been successful and I am living my dreams in Christ. You need to try. Christ too and know how serious I am. |
ppogba:You can be constructive and polite at the same time. Anonymity is should not be a ticket for your rudeness. God bless you |
I can remember when the board started in the early 90's it was prestigious to be called a chartered accountant but this days there are lots of accounting applications that has redefined accounting. IT and accounting are now 5&6. Brethren Jesus loves you. There is eternity after our sojourn on earth It pays to live for Christ and to die would be gain. Please repent today. |
Hmm |
Can't imagine the horrific experience. Living in such environment under the evil of the Talibans and now natural disaster. God please have mercy on them. |
Ah |
The devil has a way of promoting persons that will be a bad influence to many especially the youths. |
Nokio1:Fish is far healthier and better.... |
Reducing meat intake has a protective effect. Research shows that people who eat red meat are at an increased risk of death from heart disease, stroke or diabetes. Processed meats also increase the risk of death from these diseases. And what you don't eat can also harm your health.

Ha!!!!! If you don't have God has your father. Please accept Christ today he is the way to the father. |
Parachoko:Brother, you have a point but Buhari was criticized base on his performance as a president and it was not an attack on his personality. In this case, Peter Obi is not a president yet an it's not fair because the statement of the priest can jeopardize the chances of the man who could be right person we need now as a nation. |
We shall win this war |
In midst of this uncertainties there are glimpse of hope. I know times are tough but certainly there would be light at the end of this turnel. Do not stop believing..... Please don't give up Jesus loves you. |
Men and brethren, brothers and sisters..... As we are in this world please don't forget we are not of the world, we are going somewhere and it's important we live in this consciousness. I will encourage you to please repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. Act3:19 God bless you Jesus loves you. |
Ballack1:Let them go ahead... It will make the run easy for Peter Obi/ Labour party. Watch how some politicians will start moving to Labour party in the coming days as his popularity grows. |
Ok |
There are two types of Christians, the Active and Passive. Those that makes things happen and those that watch it happen. Commited labourers are members with the following qualities Attends Regularly This is the first and most important ministry of every Christian in the local church. Being present, being known, and being active are the only ways to make Christian love possible (Heb. 10:24–25). Seeks Peace A committed church member is committed to the maintenance of peace in the congregation. “Let us pursue what makes for peace and mutual upbuilding” (Rom. 14:19). “And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace” (James 3:18). Edifies Others The one consistent purpose or goal of the public meeting of the church is mutual edification, building each other up in the faith (1 Cor. 12, 14; Eph. 4:11–16). A healthy and committed member comes to serve, not to be served, like Jesus (Mark 10:45); to provide, not to be a consumer only. Warns and Admonishes Others A committed member is committed to speaking the truth in love to his brothers and sisters, to helping them avoid pitfalls, and to encouraging them in holiness and Christian joy. A committed member will not be wrongly intrusive in the lives of others—a busybody—but he also will not be “hands off” when it comes to caring for and counseling others. Pursues Reconciliation Christians are people who are reconciled to God through Christ. As a consequence, we have been given “the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Cor. 5:18–21). So, a committed member strives to repair breaches as quickly as possible, even before continuing in public worship (Matt. 5:23–24). Bears with Others Ministers of reconciliation must be patient and long-suffering. They must be characterized by meekness such that they do not think more highly of themselves than they ought (Matt. 5:5). They must hold up under the weight of disappointments, frustrations, loss, attack, slander, and offense (Matt. 18:21–22; Rom. 15:1). By carrying each others’ burdens we fulfill the law of Christ (Gal. 6:2). Prepares for the Ordinances One privilege of church membership is participating in Christ’s ordinances—baptism and communion. Moreover, these privileges give us visible proclamations of the good news that Christ died for sinners and rose again to eternal life. So it’s a great tragedy that many Christians neglect the ordinances that Jesus himself established 2,000 years ago. A committed member rejoices at the baptism of new believers, and he examines his heart in preparation for joining the family of God at the Lord’s Table. He receives these spiritual exercises as means of grace, means that give visible testimony to the effect of the gospel in his life and the life of the gathered church. A committed member is committed to speaking the truth in love to his brothers and sisters, to helping them avoid pitfalls, and to encouraging them in holiness and Christian joy. Supports the Work of the Ministry A committed member gives resources, time, and talent to the furtherance of the gospel in the local church. He lives out the Bible’s call to the body of Christ. “We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man’s gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully” (Rom. 12:6– . Conclusion To fail to associate ourselves in a lasting and committed way with the Head of the church by joining his body is surely a sign of ingratitude, whether from an uninformed or a dull heart. We who have the privilege of living in countries where we may freely join a local church should keep this admonition from Dietrich Bonhoeffer in mind: It is by the grace |
Omoluabi16:Ironically I am a Yoruba but my full support is for Peter Obi because I think he can do well with the economy but my only concern has always been the case of insecurity. He may not have the will to deal with that. |
Omoluabi16:As a people, our racial, religious and ethnic diversity will always play a huge role on political choices. That is the way it's anywhere in the world. Take it or leave it every body wants to be fully represented at the apex of power. |
