My questions are:

Can I opt for interview instead of Dropbox? I have used my visa two times, and it has recently expired. But now I want to travel with my wife and kids, and i want to attend interview with them.

Do I have to create the Ustravel profile for each applicant or I can use my account for them?

Thank you.
Religion / Re: Daddy Freeze Reacts To Man Wearing A Hat During Church Service (Photo) by kobobay(m): 9:35pm On Jul 09, 2018
Freeze is just a joke that knows nothing about this subject. If you want to know the truth, take your time and study the Bible yourself. And Don’t let Freeze foul you.

Why Women Should Not Wear Head-Coverings

1Cor 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
1Cor 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
1Cor 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
1Cor 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
1Cor 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
1Cor 11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
1Cor 11:9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
1Cor 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
1Cor 11:11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
1Cor 11:12 For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
1Cor 11:13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
1Cor 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
1Cor 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
1Cor 11:16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

Some people have misinterpreted 1 Corinthians 11 and believe that it is commanding women to wear hats or "head-coverings" of some kind. In this chapter, God is dealing with gender roles and the authority that a man has over his wife. In verse 3, the authority that a man has over his wife is likened unto the authority that God has over a man. God is the "head" (authority figure) of the man, and the man is the "head" (authority figure) of the woman. This matches perfectly with what the Bible says in Ephesians 5:

Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

As we continue in 1 Corinthians 11, verses 4-6 state:

1Cor 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
1Cor 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
1Cor 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

According to these verses women should have their heads "covered," and men should not. In fact, if a woman's head is not covered, that is just as bad as if she were "shorn" or "shaven." Notice that the Bible says that it is a "shame" for a woman to be shorn or shaven. We all know what "shaven" means, but what does the word "shorn" mean? The Bible uses the word "shorn" one other time in the New Testament:

Acts 18:18 And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.

The vow that the Bible is referring to here is a Nazarite vow from the Old Testament. Notice what the Bible commands about the Nazarite vow in Numbers 6:

Num 6:5 All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.

Num 6:18 And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.

Once again, the Bible is its own dictionary. Being "shorn" is another word for being "shaven." Paul having his head shaved with a razor is referred to as him being "shorn." Therefore God is saying that a woman being "uncovered" is just as shameful as her shaving her head completely bald as Paul did in Acts 18.

So, what is this "covering"?

1Cor 11:13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
1Cor 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
1Cor 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

According to verses 13-15, a woman is "uncovered" if she does not have "long hair." A woman is therefore commanded to have long hair, and a man is commanded not to have long hair.

Those who believe in women wearing external "head-coverings" or bonnets on their heads will argue that even though long hair is a covering (indefinite article), women still need to wear an additional covering or bonnet on their heads. This is easily disproved with the Bible. The same passage that tells women to be covered tells men not to be covered. Therefore, if this were talking about something other than long hair (i.e. a "head-covering" or bonnet), it would be a sin for a man to wear it while praying or prophesying. This is directly in contradiction with many Old Testament passages that command the Old Testament priests to wear bonnets and mitres while ministering in the priests office:

Exo 28:40 And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.
Exo 28:41 And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.

Exo 29:9 And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put the bonnets on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons.

Exo 39:27 And they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron, and for his sons,
Exo 39:28 And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen,

Lev 8:13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the LORD commanded Moses.

Eze 44:17 And it shall come to pass, that when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them, whiles they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
Eze 44:18 They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with any thing that causeth sweat.

Notice that the priest's clothing consisted of coats, britches (pants), and bonnets. Why would God tell us that "nature itself" teaches us that a woman should wear a head-covering, and that men should not, when he commanded over and over again that the priests (who were men of course) were required to wear bonnets when they prayed and prophesied in the priests office! The covering referred to in 1 Corinthians 11 is long hair, as defined in the passage itself; it is not a bonnet or head-covering.

This is consistent with the Old Testament, which commanded the priests not to have long hair:

Eze 44:20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads.

They were commanded to be neither completely bald nor long-haired, but rather to "poll" (i.e. cut short the hair on) their heads.

Other proponents of "head-coverings" on women will say that if you "go back to the Greek," you'll see that the word for "covering" in verse 15 is different than the other words used for "covering" in the passage. Of course, they are not fluent in Greek, but because the words look a lot different, they assume that they must be talking about completely different things. However, there are many examples in our language of words that look completely different as different parts of speech, but that are actually the same. Here are a few examples:

- having faith (noun) means that you believe (verb).
- being undressed (adjective) means you aren't wearing any clothes (noun).
- doing something manually (adverb) means that you did it by hand (noun).
- thing that are lunar (adjective) have to do with the moon (noun).

You see how identical words can look completely different as different parts of speech. Therefore a woman can be uncovered (adjective - "akatakalypto"wink because she is not wearing a covering (noun - "peribolaion"wink. Just because the words look the same in English does not mean that they will look the same in Greek. Apparently these head-covering advocates who couldn't even order a meal in a Greek restaurant think they know more than the KJV translators. This is why one should always beware when anyone has to "go back to the Greek" to prove their doctrine.

Now that we understand what "covering" is referring to in 1 Corinthians 11 (i.e. long hair), let's go back and look at the passage with this definition in mind:

1Cor 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
1Cor 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered (i.e. having long hair), dishonoureth his head (i.e. dishonours Jesus Christ - see previous verse).
1Cor 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered (i.e. with short hair) dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. (i.e. if a woman doesn't have long hair, she might as well be bald!)
1Cor 11:6 For if the woman be not covered (i.e. she has short hair), let her also be shorn : but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. (i.e. in God's eyes, it is just as much of a shame for a woman to have short hair, as it is for her to be completely shaved bald).

Ladies are commanded by the Bible to have long hair. They are not commanded to wear an external head covering of any kind. If they do wear one, people will probably associate them with religions that preach a false Gospel.

Okay. Thank you so much. Would that be a problem if he reapplies? The reason why I am asking is, since I have been reading this thread, everyone who gets denied will get a paper explaining why he was denied. But he didn't. Now, what would his reason for his denial since he was not given any paper.

Religion / What Saith The Scripture? by kobobay(m): 1:23pm On Apr 26, 2018
I think it is very interesting on why this appears to be called a "deception". Think about it. If you can only have eternal life by repenting of sins and not living filthy, then technically you are saved by your works. You are saved because you are a good person. That is what this all comes down to. Well let me tell you, this is not the good news. Why? Because you are trusting in your own works other than the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Want to hear a fun fact? Most religions don't believe in eternal security. They believe you can lose it, if YOU AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH! The whole world teaches salvation by works! What a mind blower!

You want to know what REALLY is the broad way? THIS is the broad way! Everyone teaches that you must be good to get into heaven! EVERYONE! Of course they won't come out and say that directly! They will cloak it under such wisdom of words! "Deny yourself!" Every religion believes in self denial! In reality GRACE is the narrow path! Why? Because it is all about TRUST! You have to TRUST CHRIST NO MATTER THE BEHAVIOR, NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES! NO ONE wants to trust Jesus! If you are a believer of eternal security then you will be crucified by the self proclaimed Christians! Mostly them! They will say, "You're giving people a license to sin!", "Preach on sin more!", "You're just a feel good preacher!" Darn right I am! I AM A FEEL GOOD PREACHER BECAUSE JESUS IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD! He is the good news! Good news make people feel good! Does it not? Am I wrong? Otherwise good news wouldn't be called good news!
?
Pride seems to be the issue. Satan ministers are ministers of righteousness! Of course his ministers will teach that YOU MUST WORK TO EARN ETERNAL LIFE! Anything besides BELIEVING THE GOSPEL ALONE to be saved! The enemy will do anything to get you not to trust in the Son! Those who trust in their own works; their end will be according to their obedience.
Salvation loss = Salvation by works.
Salvation loss is the deception.
If the WHOLE WORLD teaches salvation by works, then what do you think is the narrow path?
Grace thru Faith alone is the narrow road.
Godbless.

Seun:
If the God of the Bible made countries that served him great, Israel would have been the greatest nation in biblical times, because they had the highest concentration of Yahweh worshippers in the entire world. Instead, they were constantly conquered and enslaved by “heathens”.

They were conquered whenever they go astray from God unto false gods and turned their deaf hears from hearing his laws.

Religion / When A Nation Turns Her Back On God by kobobay(m): 9:09am On Jan 24, 2018
Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

Jeremiah 3:21 A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God.

Bad things happen, when a nation turns her back on God. It is tragic to see what our country has become, because our nation does not acknowledge God through their injustice and wickedness being done to innocent people. Then we do not appreciate the Word of God as the principles for guidance, and the way of God. Bad things happen when we move away from the Bible.

Agriculture / Sell Online Free by kobobay(m): 1:45pm On Feb 15, 2017
There is now a new online classified website for farmers in Nigeria to advert their farm produce for free without paying anything.

It is called Kobofarm.

Farmers struggle a lot with marketing. Kobofarm wants to connect sellers with buyers. It is the only classified website for agricultural sector in Nigeria.

It is free like OLX, JIJI. Just like any other classified site but this is only for farmers.

Therefore, let's call on all farmers in Nigeria to support this new idea.

Religion / Daily Deovtional Guide- Truth Still Stands by kobobay(m): 1:10pm On Nov 07, 2016
After Jesus clearly declared the truth to Pilate, he despondently responded to the Savior, “What is truth?” To Pilate, as to many people today, truth is subjective and relative. Others believe truth does not even exist at all. Still others believe truth is unknowable or unattainable. While this moral and theological relativism is becoming increasingly prevalent in our Western culture, godly men of the past also dealt with this crisis many years ago.

Religion / Fire Came Down From Heaven by kobobay(m): 10:28am On Nov 03, 2016
Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down.
And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly.
And Elijah answered and said unto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.

Religion / Is There Not A God In Israel? by kobobay(m): 7:42pm On Nov 02, 2016
Ahaziah, Ahab’s son, needed to learn a crucial lesson. Because he wanted to know if he would recover from his illness (v. 2), he sent inquiry to Ekron where the gods were notoriously in their answers. He knew he would hear a positive message from Baalzebub, the god of Ekron.

Religion / In Advocate For A Life Of Surrender by kobobay(m): 8:46pm On Oct 28, 2016
One of the things the Christian struggles with is surrender. Even the world struggles with it when it comes to the gospel and salvation. Agrippa said “almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian” (acts 26:28). That is surrender there with an unbelieving man and he struggled with it. Surrender is to give up completely or agree to forgo especially in favor of another. While it is true that salvation is not of works (Eph 2:9, Acts 16:30-31), however, surrender is necessary as the sinner turns to Christ by faith for salvation.

Religion / Pastors Only Please by kobobay(m): 8:39pm On Oct 28, 2016
To some pastors, having a church annual program or activity is a taboo, it is something that they have seriously despised. The question is, are all the church programs sinful? I guess No. It is not just about having a program, but to have the right programs that will bring glory to God, and to boast your church popularity and increase your impact in your community, and grow your congregation is what matters to God.

Four Annual Church Programs

Religion / Salvation Is Not By Works by kobobay(m): 3:07pm On Oct 21, 2016
Titus 3:5 “Not by works of righteousness which we have done but according to his mercy he saved us.”

Notice what the Bible says, “Not by works of righteousness which WE have done.” Did you know that despite what others may say, teach, or believe it is impossible to earn your way to heaven?


Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” Notice again that all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags. That means every good thing we have ever done to earn salvation is worthless. Have you ever tried to clean something like a mirror or a window with a dirty rag? What happens? You just smear the dirt around or get the dirt from the rag on what you are trying to clean. It just does not work.

Religion / The Mind To Work by kobobay(m): 11:12pm On Oct 20, 2016
Nehemiah 4:1-3 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat heard that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked the Jews. 2 And he spake before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and said, What do these feeble Jews? will they fortify themselves? will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day? will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are burned? 3 Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Even that which they build, if a fox go up, he shall even break down their stone wall

Religion / 5 Problems Disciples Have. by kobobay(m): 4:17pm On Oct 18, 2016
A STUDY OF THE CALL TO DISCIPLESHIP IN LUKE 19
“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.”—Luke 9:23
Christian discipleship is a vital subject in the New Testament, and the book of Luke is a fine source of information about it. In chapter 9, the call to discipleship is given and explained in verses 23 and 24 (as it is also in Matthew 16:24–25 and Mark 8:34–35), but then, beginning in verse 37, several serious problems that true disciples of Jesus Christ have are discussed.
