Antichristian2:
✓ Throughout the New Testament, Jesus (especially) in his last three years before his death left his family and was preaching around with some disciples!
It is clear Jesus told his disciples that he will suffer, be arrested, crucified and be killed!
It is clear that Jesus told his disciples that he will rise up from the dead!
Cleopas said:
but we had hoped that he (Jesus) was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place. Luke 24:21
Why would Cleopas say the above about Jesus if he truly did tell them he was gonna die for their sins?
✓ Note that Cleopas was a figure in early Christianity, known primarily as one of the two disciples who encountered the resurrected Jesus on the road to Emmaus, as described in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 24:13-35). He was a follower of Jesus during His earthly ministry and among the few who saw the Lord on the day of His resurrection. Early Church tradition also identifies Cleopas (sometimes spelled Clopas) as possibly the brother of Joseph, the legal father of Jesus, and the father of Simon/Simeon

1. You should try to at least do a better job of reading the book of books before you go around thinking you can squabble with your fellow religionists by way of what is written in it. 🥱🥱🥱

What do you understand by what Cleopa said there of him thinking Jesus Christ of Israel was the one sent to redeem Israel? The answer is found broken down for you in the Gospels so, take your time before responding. 🥱🥱🥱

2. So, uou are aware then that Jesus Christ had at least 72 other disciples whom He had sent out to preach to the people(likely a group after the first 12) and this Cleopas was one of his disciples, a witness from his ascension? And the number of the disciples who gathered in the room waiting in Jerusalem as per Jesus Christ of Israel's last commands was about 120 disciples total gathered in the upper room? 🥱🥱🥱

---

That is 120 witnesses to Jesus Christ of Israel who also heard his teachings -- he taught many of them for 40 days after his resurrection -- and probably all came together to record much of them down for all others after them to learn from. 🥱🥱

At the recent 2025 National Women Convention event that took place somewhere in Nigeria, the following was "preached" by a woman to an audience of primarily married Nigerian women.

Learn how to cover your husband's shame even before the family. They can call a meeting...Can I talk to somebody?
If you notice that your husband is...is not a man. You have married ...oh, you are married, or he has a low sperm count, and you have stayed 5 years without a child, and they call you people meeting, and they will be saying, "she doesn't want to give my brother a child, he don't want to give my son a child."

Don't wake up before the public and tell them that my husband cannot produce a child. No, no, no, no, no, no. Take the insult, eat the insult, swallow the insult, and go. "Cover the shame." I don't know what I'm teaching. You are teaching Ma.

You don't expose this man. When you tell people that your husband cannot perform in bed, it is an insult. You have killed that man alive.

➜ ... I'm not here to discuss the atrocities those terrorists and extremist arecommitting... This thread is not for that.

What exactly is this thread for?

Comfortableme:
➜I am a single man and never been married before with no kids. And am considering marrying a single mother as am planning to marry this year.

You obviously shouldn't marry her because by your creation of this thread, you have essentially announced here to us all that you have an issue with the idea itself. Free that woman, abeg! 🥱🥱

occfx:
➜Why she go marry boy friend wey dey take money from her

Because she was probably socialized from a very young age to believe her worth is defined by her having a man in her life. Also, the man in question is old enough to be her father, so he obviously manipulated her into believing he was worth more than the loser he really is. 🥱🥱🥱

Saao:
➜seriously, your question. She's an equal partner in marriage.
➜ The children belong to both man and woman intact most times women want to claim upperhand

Wrong! No, she ain't! When a woman is married under a traditional umbrella, she is not considered an equal partner, and we all know this. 🥱🥱🥱

2. In traditional marriage, the children belong to the man, even though the man could still abandon them and the woman whenever he wants to.🥱🥱🥱

saintbillion:
➜I reported the issue to the police. But when they said I'll open file with money i left them. But the bank manager told me they have black listed his account. I don't knw if he was been truthful

Na wa o! 🥱🥱

Check back at the bank as soon as you can, and ask if the man or someone else dropped off your power bank. 🥱🥱

saintbillion:
➜Yes sir. i checked on them on Monday been the 5th day of January. Unfortunately they said he hasn't come back. And I've travelled. Not in kaduna at the moment

Try to check back again when you get back. Did you report the issue to the police in the meantime? You can do that and still check back.

Abbeytoy:
➜Feminine, don't jump to conclusions. Those are my assumptions not facts. The only thing both of them say is that she locked me out and begs him for me because I lock him out. The reason for such was an argument.

You should take time to ask yourself why you are suddenly threatened by my asking questions and stating hypotheticals? 🥱🥱🥱

Jayhome24:
➜E pains you ba? Manage the pain ok may be the pain will help in resetting your brain.

2026 and you are still this immature? Yuck! 🥱🥱🥱

Abbeytoy:
1, The truth is that most men I know in the UK complained of the same problem. Yes, he does mention that the money belongs to them both, but he still does everything needed. But I think his major concern is that the lady lavishes the money on the party and clothes... This might be an accumulated issue and add to the main problem, but it's not the major one here.
2, I think the locking out is persistent, and he just got frustrated and was like,.. Is this really worth it, despite the sacrifices? (He didn't tell me this, but I think this is the main issue.)
4, I know my brother can create a toxic environment, especially when he gets broke and wants her to drop some money to offset the bills. I believe he can do it. [b]Just that locking him out has been the only thing they communicate to us all as the problem.[/b]

1. If the money is in the woman's name, it is her money, not the man's money to spend or concern himself with.

2. Why was he being locked out? You refused to include the reason the woman gave you for her persistent actions, so it is meaningless to go on about it. 🥱🥱🥱

3. A disregulated adult in the midst of him throwing a tantrum because he is broken? If that is the reason why she locked him out, then she should never have opened that door to him ever again. Your brother should be happy she never called the police on him each of those times. 🥱🥱🥱

Abbeytoy:
1. They're not recognised as a couple under UK law to get government benefits. Mist black ladies do it over there.
2, I am not interested in who's right or wrong or who offended whom. And I support their separation is that's what will bring peace.
➜ The only problem I have and my concern in everything is the child involved.
➜ He should see him, call him, and schedule time to take him out as normal people will do

1. Did your brother have an issue with the fact that the woman did not share her money with him? 🥱🥱🥱

2. Exactly! I am not interested in who is wrong or right, which is the reason why I didn't comment on her locking him out several times, and I do support their separation. The relationship seemed to have been a whole load of toxic. 🥱🥱🥱

3. Same here...my primary concern too is that child. 🥱🥱🥱

4. Have you considered the possibility that your brother created an environment that was toxic for that child, too? 🥱🥱🥱

Idaytesj29:
➜ Speak for yourself.

Go have a candid conversation with your mother about it. 🥱🥱

Abbeytoy:
➜There was no issue with the welfare money, she has been collecting it for 7 years and no problem.
➜But the problem you don't see is locking him outside.
➜ I only bring this up because I want him to see his child and act like a father as before. My brother is one of the best men out there.

Abbeytoy:
➜They did not even know where he stayed. The government must not know she has a husband, else they will cut off all her support, and that would never favour her. I think government support is one of the main issues that affects marriages in the UK. The women will get it and not share with their partners who still pay all the bills.

1. Are you saying your brother's marriage was not affected by this same problem which you mentioned earlier in the conversation? 🥱🥱

2. I don't know whether her locking him outside is justified or not... and yes, there are justifications for locking a person outside. In such cases, if asked, I would instead recommend moving on completely from such a person— if you have to lock a person out of the house, that is a clear sign that you two are probably not good together at all— in such cases, but a lot of times people cling to that which is not good for them. 🥱🥱🥱

2. We only have your account of things, but we have yet to read the woman's side of what kind of man your brother really is... the more important side of this. She is the woman who supposedly had to endure him for as long as they were together, so she should be in a better place to tell us more about your brother than you, actually. 🥱🥱

Playconsoler101:
➜Why. This here is why people fail exams... Simple question... Stating that terror groups like boko haram and Issi aside, clearly takes into account the atrocities of this set of people... But this thread is not here for that... I'm asking about personal encounters.
Keyword: PERSONAL ENCOUNTERS
PLEASE DON'T DIGRESS THR THREAD

You are not making any sense! You wish for people to remove the obvious terrorist linked issues that stem from Islamic beliefs to focus only on personal encounters? Why would anyone desire to have a personal encounter with that which is obviously linked with terrorism and anti-freedom? 🥱🥱

Your question is sort of like asking Iranians why they no longer want Islamic rule while asking them to ignore all the atrocities and vile things they have had to live with and endure as a result of Islamic rule. It can't make sense. 🥱🥱🥱

Idaytesj29:
➜Does the boy look like an slowpoke to you? He does not know the difference between who provides and who is being covered right?

Many of you literally grew up not realizing how many times your mothers had to cover your father's shame when he was either broke or unemployed. 🥱🥱🥱

oluwaseyi0:
➜According to the post the man doesn't need anybody permission to get as much women as his money can afford
➜ Who did the woman take permission from before dumping the less rich, why should the man all of a sudden need permission to acquire what he can

1. The post makes clear that the woman decides the man she wants, not the other way around. She gives consent after the man has presented his bid.

2. Consent can be given and can be taken back thereafter. If you don't understand your rights as a human being, where your right comes from, then I suggest you go review that before you continue. 🥱🥱🥱

➜I can see you're the same person as .... The lack of creativity is even baffling. You just need exposure. Go try this highest bidder nonsense in the U.S.
➜ Better pray that God blesses you so that your folks don't have to auction to the highest bidder. Or just pray for basic dignity.

1. I am in the U.S. and can confirm that the highest bidder is even here in the U.S with a lot of women. People are not as devious as you are there trying to deny women the right to belong to them since even before your ancestors. 🥱🥱🥱

2. See the poor man looking for a cheap/free woman, invoking god as always to cover his brand of wickedness! 🥱🥱

Emeskhalifa:
➜Women should start contributing financially. That's all.

Wrong! You don't go around imposing ideas on women as though they are yours to command.🥱🥱

Rather, if a man wants a woman to contribute financially, he should only date and marry a working woman who agrees to contribute financially to the marriage in exchange for the man also contributing in other regards. The onus is on the man to decide to chase and marry only a working woman who consents to contributing financially... both should probably sign a prenup to ensure no one side 419s the other, and the marriage should probably also be at the registry and not some traditional scam either.🥱🥱🥱

correctguy101:
➜Are you talking about women at all? Ah, in my experience the opposite is mostly the case. How many woman go dey lie to her children to uphold the dignity of her unproductive man when she's working her ass out, even accepting relationships she would've rejected otherwise just to care for her children and now give all the glory to her husband... ?
Oga, is this fantasy? Some would even take the man's hardwork as theirs... I'm just speaking about the useless descendant that doesn't know his place and would now talk down on my woman who happen to be his birth mother. I fit kih am sef... What nonsense

Oh! Are you trying to argue that the old traditional and religious insistence that women cover their husband's shame is no longer a thing? 🥱🥱🥱

JimD:
➜Is it buy and sell or demand and supply? Poverty mentality. You should be ashamed.

It has always been buy and sell since even the time of your ancestors. Back then, they would bring their bid to the father of the woman, and the father usually sold his daughter to the highest bidder, without caring much about the girl's opinion. And yes, those who came with the bids usually offered it as a poverty alleviation scheme. 🥱🥱

The one who should be ashamed is you, knowing of what your ancestors did even before you were imagined, but pretending women are now to blame for continuing what is essentially a tradition.🥱🥱🥱

Saao:
➜but let women learn to assist their husband. Before you marry someone, position yourself to assist your husband financially. ...

Is the woman an equal partner in the marriage that she should assist the man financially? Does the man assist with the women's part of the household and the raising of the children?🥱🥱🥱

oluwaseyi0:
➜I'm not against that, what I'm against is stopping the man from having multiple woman if he can afford it just like you can't stop your company from expanding and hiring more people so also should a woman never make attempt to stop a rich man from getting all the woman he want

1. If a man wants multiple women, then there are women out there who do not mind being with such a man that the man can bid on, too. The key is that both parties— the man and every one of the women he intends to form the polygamous union with— consent to such relationships for it to make sense. 🥱🥱🥱

Omalicious1:
➜After they will deny that they are into hook up...

They deny it because society does not allow them the same freedom to express they they too are into hookups. The average man out there boasts of being into hookups; women should have the same freedom. 🥱🥱🥱

Jayhome24:
And the highest bidder will be Onye nwere ọgwụego (money ritualist) as God live and he will use you for being so useless turning yourself to a market commodity.

Tell your ancestors that when they sold off their daughters to the highest bidder. 🥱🥱🥱

Starz825:
I think its the same as when football players pick the club who offers the best contract... ...Most players do this.
However, few other players look at the sporting project of a club and then pick a contract .....might not even be up to their desire or what other clubs are offering them, but they take it anyway and forge ahead with hope.
This is exactly how women are ....
-Most will go for the highest bidder...these ones are all about money.
-A few others look at the vision/purpose of the man and then decide to stay...these ones are mostly about goal alignment.
Having said that; my advise to men will always be ...."Sign a player within your Budget".....if not ...na OYO oo
even small clubs with low budget still get players wey dey play for them....
*Men are the football clubs
*Women are the Football players
My take!

During the time of your ancestors, even they went for the highest bidder when it came to selling off their daughters to men. Women are simply continuing the tradition, only now they get to set the price for themselves and decide who the bid criteria as they see fit. 🥱🥱🥱

➜Where did you get your stats from Biko? I'm a children person, my life revolves around children and teens, church, work, house (area) I know ALL the children that it's their mothers that's paying their school fee (even if it's once) Shel look for any opportunity to hint to the account or anyone that cares to listen that she's the paying o.

I sold my rapa to pay your University free blabla This Sunday do a random stats with 20 kids, ask them who bought them their fine clothes or shoes. And hear who they'll mention- the person that didn't pay is who they'll mention

Did you read your own post at all before hitting Submit? 🥱🥱🥱

KobolanderSegun:
➜It sadly works both ways. It's not necessary because of manipulation. If a man suddenly becomes Aliko wealthy all his ex's would become interested in him not because they could manipulate him because they know they can't but to enjoy the fruits of his labor.
➜ Also if by chance a woman starts to look better in old age because her yansh becomes bigger as she ages some men will become drawn to her not to manipulate her but to enjoy her new figure. Sometimes people come back because they can no longer be away when the person has more money or the woman has more body

. I say it is manipulation because coming back usually involves weaseling one's way back into the life one once considered of no value or worth.

2. So long as their intent is not from a place of real desire and care for the woman, but to fulfill their private desires and longings, then some form of manipulation is necessary. 🥱🥱🥱

I am not saying all cases are, but the vast majority of cases out there are from that point... weaseling one's way back into the heart and life of someone you once abandoned is usually, you not considering that person but yourself and your need more. 🥱🥱

EBEk101:
➜Since when did freedom mean the absence of responsibility? Yes, everyone can make choices, but morality is about recognizing that some choices are destructive, not just to yourself but to others.
➜ Comparing marriage to smashing a phone is shallow. a phone doesn’t have trust, loyalty, or commitment tied to it.
➜ If you believe morality is simply do whatever you want and face the consequences,
➜ then you’re reducing relationships to transactions instead of bonds built on respect.
➜ True freedom isn’t about indulging every impulse, it’s about choosing what sustains trust and dignity and which I doubt you have any left given what you just typed.

1. Again, morality is an illusion that is typically wielded as a weapon by men against women and children.

2. Marriage has always been transactional from the time of your ancestors; a woman married specifically for the purpose of birthing and raising children was immediately thrown out if she failed to live up to the expectations of her in the marriage. And men have always known this fact. So, why are you incensed that women should now be able to reason along those lines?

3. Again, morality means nothing, so stop throwing the term around as if it should mean something here. 🥱🥱🥱

4. Nonsense! 🥱🥱🥱

5. Men had freedom to transact as they saw fit when it came to how they used and abused women in relationships for the longest; no one demanded morality be respected by men all that while. But the moment women are granted the same freedom, you suddenly feel morality needs to be included in the mix? Nonsense! 🥱🥱🥱

MarketDispatch:
➜Why should it only be women? Men too should go for highest bidder .
➜ Would you rather live in squalor or live in affluence? Likewise will you date a poor girl or rich girl?

The traditional since the time of your ancestors has been of men doing the bidding. When your ancestors approached the fathers of the women to place their bid, the girl usually had no say in the decisions that followed. So, the answer to your question is that tradition has had it that way for the longest. 🥱🥱🥱

2. Most men out there intentionally date and marry poor girls. They do the bidding, and they, most of the time, bid on the poor girl, not the rich girl. So, yes, it is not women to blame for men choosing poor girls most of the time, but men to take accountability for that behavior of theirs. 🥱🥱🥱
