malvisguy212: The Bible says that in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. That includes everything necessary to feed and provide for its inhabitants. Can anyone deny that the earth is capable of producing more than enough food to feed the entire globe? Well then, if people are starving, whose fault is that? If God made the earth, is He also supposed to plant and distribute our crops for us? Do you remember the tons of food that were shipped to Ethiopia, but did not reach the starving people who needed it? Whose fault was that?
SporaD8: Even as I understand that colonialism has rob Africans blind; Fact remains that - The Ram is The Brits Mascot. It is not meant for sacrifice. Same way Nigeria has Eagle as a Mascot in it's Coat of Arms.
There is no where in my submission that I said the Ram is for sacrifice, I'm only pointing out the double standard of the British and the Africans' acceptance of deceit as a standard........
Kobojunkie: All this here makes no sense. The simple reason you lot are going off at the teeth because of this is that the animal in question is a ram. Had the Corporal been an Elephant or even a lion, many of you would not have considered this story worth giving your attention to. But sadly, seems the words "Sacrifice" and "Ram" are the triggers for this silliness.
I never expected my submission to make sense to you........
You know the Ram bibliography better......that's actually a show of intelligence
Kobojunkie: Black man, first save yourself from ignorance.
Did you watch the loyalty oath/pledge by the British Parliament ? Irrespective of their religious beliefs, sexual orientation, gender and their diverse reservation on the importance of the royal family to the British system of Government
The firing and other stuff
But when African king dies, every religious group starts foaming in the month against the traditional rites to select and install a new one.
This present Ooni for example even went as far as kneeling down in the church...
Meanwhile, Bishop of Scotland came to the palace for the coronation rites, no choirs, no ushers, no speaking in tongues, no single hymn was sang......
Now you're talking about a Ram being part of the British military army ( that in itself sounds barbaric).....what is the duty of the Ram as a military personnel ?....just imagine a goat as a member of a vigilante group in Nigeria.....you all will be binding and casting it in the name of Jesus.
It is even funny, they retired the Ram to a zoo. All the wages the Ram earned during his service was used for what ?....no personal house, family/relatives, retirement benefits etc ?
Even the way the Ram was held in this picture, that king's guard is suppose to be in detention by now (animal cruelty) assault on his senior and retired Guard.
I thought I was the only one disappointed by this king coronation ceremony.......I thought the world has gone pass traditions........alas Africa is a ful.
jesusjnr2020: Why Do Sinners Suddenly Turn Into Saints (Prayer Warriors) When Travelling? (Photos And Video)
Last week i saw the testimony of Dunsin Oyekan after he survived a ghastly motor accident, and I wasn't surprised...
I know very well from personal experience that there were those few that God would go the extra mile to protect where need be, so that same dangerous situations that would have harmed or taken the life of most would be turned into a testimony to them, because it wouldn't be able to harm them or take their lives.
That I believe was what happened to Dunsin who has shown himself to be of a different spiritual class... because it's glaring that it was indeed God that intervened and saved His life, otherwise it would easily have been an entirely different story.
That's why i keep telling people to stop playing church but take the things of God seriously, so that in crucial moments like that when they really needed God's help, God would even to go out of His way to save them because they were also there for Him when He needed someone.
Not after they've lived their lives for the themselves and for the devil, then all of a sudden, when they needed His help, for instance, when they're about to embark on a long distance journey, then they would suddenly remember God is there, and start cabashing, casting, binding, tonging and saying all manner of things in the name of prayer.
They're bound to be on on their own if they found themselves in a dangerous situation, because it's only men that they can deceive, not God!
Hence they shouldn't wait until when their lives were endangered and they needed God's help before they took Him seriously, but beforehand, so that God would also take their own matters seriously as He did in the instance of Dunsin, because they are not just lipservers whose hearts were not with Him, but true worshippers who worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. John 4:23
1) There should be differences between church and God. 2) What does God going extra mile means ? 3) What does playing church have to do with God ? 4) why did God allowed the accident to occure in the first place......is prevention not better than cure ?
My conclusion is Christianity lack the most minute knowledge about God, Hence the personification.
Christians preaches in contradiction......How can an omnipotent and omnipresent go an extra miles ?
These portray limitation of the supposed God's abundant Grace......and in addition freedom of choice....in this case Dunsin chose abundant speed over safety.

You get time for that fool
It is a mistake to take marriage/romantic relationship advice from females. Irrespective of their age and experience.
I believe wife are the same everywhere,
Let me tell you something my wife told me.
In my own eye, I have been a very good, up and doing husband.....infact she praises me and I usually tell her she is a good wife.....we get along pretty well...... we're both professional in our various field...
So one day, we were gisting in the living room....and she said to me do you know I was depressed through out so so month ago...which was about three month earlier......the same month we went out like mad..... enjoyed our time alone together
I enquired further what could be responsible....guess who....me
And if you hear the reasons.......I had to go to bed....in anger while she change mood again and started begging me that I misunderstood what she was saying....
Infact I told her she did not know the definition of depression
Woman..... don't kill yourself understand anything........ because at the end they will still blame you for understanding them.
Live your life and make sure you enjoyed it while you can.
Don't allow any confused being control your feelings
SenecaTheYonger: “Every married person” is such a stupid generalization. Don’t you have a mom? Was she a torn in your flesh to your dad? Not every wife is bad. Some are really good and give peace of mind.
I have to go a recheck thee person I quoted......and guess what, it isn't you.
Please go and collect back your school fees from wherever you got your formal education.
I humbly award you certificate of not able to read and understand properly
Militant1: I will try to be brief and straight to the point.
My wife stays up late (11pm -12 am) every blessed day.... That's the problem.
We live in Lagos and have 2kids, 3yo and 8 months. My wife was working before but left the job when she gave birth. There is a job waiting for her when the baby is 1y6mnths, therefore she is a stay at home mom.
We live on the mainland but I work on the island so I live home as early as five. In our house we have all the amenities you can think of; 24 hrs light (NEPA plus inverter), running water, gas, 2 washing machines etc to make a home 95percent comfortable but my wife can't seem to cope and it started when we had one child.
She doesn't wash my clothes, my office shirts and suits are given to dry cleaner to arrange while my other laundry I do myself every weekend with the washing machine.
When I get home by 7pm or 8, that's when she now starts rushing to bath the kids and prepare dinner, so we eat by 9 or 10. Before the kids play play and play, by 11pm we are still awake. Sometimes I go to bed by midnight and have to wake up by 4am to go to work again. It's impacting on my health and my work. She will sleep by 12 am and wake up by 8 or 9am the following day.
I have tried to beg and appeal to her. If I eat out and come home to just sleep, she go dey vex. If I just come home shower and sleep the kids who have passed their bedtime will be playing and when madam is ready to sleep they won't agree to sleep. She will beat them, guess who they will come crying to- daddy that just started sleeping and has to wake by 4am, I will now pet and pet till 2am before kids sleep.. I have advised her that kids have a bedtime(8pm). When I man up and off the tv by 9pm and tell everyone to go to bed, she says I am disrespecting her. She reports me to her mum.
Worse still our sex life is horrible... We have sex like once in 2 month.. At 35 I am in my sex prime and can Bleep everyday but she doesn't seem to care about me because she is always tired am I pity her so I don't demand sex so much.
I fully understand stay at home is not easy and I help her when.
I tried to create a schedule for her.
Wake up by 6am By 7 she suppose don clean finish By 8 breakfast should be ready for her, kids 9-10am bath herself and the kids 10-12 do any other stuff in the house 12-3pm rest, watch movies, chill 3-5pm... Do whatever she likes 5pm boil water and bath the kids 6pm she don bathe and bath kids 7pm... Food don done... Everything dey freezer 8pm we eat By 9 everyone goes to bed and we knack 1hr
I throw the trash every day Na me dey go market buy foodstuff On weekends I clean the house I wash my all my clothes I provide all the finance in the house I satisfy her on the bed when we naka. She begs me that she's tired I buy her gifts, drop 3k for her everyday Why should we have a house help when she is a stat at home mum (for now)
So what's the problem..
Mothers, are my demands too much? Mothers, please when do you close your kitchen and go to bed? Are you still awake by 11pm every blessed day. Am I crazy?
Please advice me.
I have begged her, pleaded, shouted, done everything. Sometimes I intentionally come home late (10-11pm) thinking that the kids have gone to bed but my first child will be watching cartoon.
Please advice me. I am going crazy, Lagos is stressful
You go just die untimely........
Funny enough those alive will survive and excel far more than you without you.
Omuuvwie: I regret getting married to the woman I married, that is a very big mistake I made, and it hurt me so bad that I don't even know how to forgive myself for this life time mistake I made.
Very funny....
Do you know that; almost every married persons make mistake of spouse, especially men. Those that didn't regret their choice are those that understand there dilemma on time and managed the situation.
Those regretting theirs are those that believed in fairy-tales, the soul mate fictional fantasies.
Truvelisback: If u haven't regretted any mistake, then u haven't made a mistake that is worth regretting.
Lol
I have missed chances to learn stuff that would have been useful sometimes later.....but why I didn't regret those chances per say is that those I learnt are quite useful all the same......and are paying my bill......
In a nutshell my regrets are supposed to be the oju kokoro I thought were not necessary at thee time.
anochuko01: Wouldn't it be unwise to think that all women are the same?
Yes....very unwise for johnny Depp to think his father was a monster and his mother was an angel.....and vowed he would never behave like his father until he married Amber Heard........ eventually his court cases proceedings to savage his supposed gentleman reputation from Los Angeles down to the UK was a season movie and it cost him million of dollars.
Don't learn the hard way like Bill Gate, Johnny Depp and co.
anochuko01: You really can't trust women when it comes to knowing your salary. My sisters and mom ask me this question and I'm never comfortable about it. Why would you like to know?! Whereas, my dad would only ask "hope the pay is okay", but women?! They'll want to know how much, so they can help you calculate how much you'll be giving them.
Btw, I believe spouses should know how much they earn. I'll never marry anyone who I'm not gonna feel comfortable telling how much I earn.
Life long mistake........ thinking your case will be different with your wife
uglodoh: Why say you are not serious to somebody you hardly know. You Cannot arque without insulting. It shows the kind of upbringing you have. Mr. I too know.
My apologies, it was your explanation that was funny...
Someone that is skinny or slim is refers to lepa...... meaning dry skin, bonny stature, fragile gaze.
Orobo on the other hand is fat, oversized, puff etc meaning olomi'ra
uglodoh: They were Yoruba words but were not used to decribe slim and fat girls. Orobo became slang for describing fat girls after pasuma sang " orobokibo". Before then we were using "apati and bantu". Lepa became a slang for describing slim girls after that film was released because of the slim nature of the girl. Then slim girls were described with "opelenge". If you listen to old Fuji and juju musics, opelenge was to describe slim girls.
I doubt if the orobo is an indigenous Yoruba word. Though I am not Yoruba.
You're not serious
So lepa is a slang, so what is the original Yoruba word for slim
I going by your explanation, kukuru, kukute, rara is a slang for short....
GreatrAnalyst: I am too sure you are the one who is wrong.
If you indeed know the language you mentioned, you would know that 'lepa' is a modern day word/slogan, not an old indigenous word. About mid 90s, this word wasn't even known or used, not even for slim person. Go figure. Opposite of 'lepa' is 'Orobo', do you also know the song/singer who also brought about orobo mainstream usage and adoption to describe someone on the fatty side? It's true that new words are being coined and added on the daily to lingo and local dialect, but also note that some have been around longer to know the origin and difference in the adapted and original root word.
