➜In the Bible the Sons of God where specifically referring to Angels.
➜ Though some translations also included the Descendants of Seth
➜I'll stick with the Fallen Angels option cos that's the more fitting here.
➜ However I believe if they were humans, they may have been possessed by these fallen angels.
➜ For me personally I'll stick with the fallen angels taking on human forms to marry the women

🚨Did You Know?🚨
Under Nigerian law, if your legally married wife denies you sex — not just once, but repeatedly — you can actually take her to court and get a court order for her to give you your right! 😳
Yes o! The court can issue what is called an “Order for Restitution of Conjugal Rights”. This simply means that the judge will order her to return to the marriage bed and perform her marriage duties! 😮
📚 This is not vibes or cruise — it is real law! You can find it under the Matrimonial Causes Act of Nigeria.
Before you rush to file case, please, note:
⚖️ This applies to legal marriages only (not just boyfriend/girlfriend or "come and stay".
⚖️ The court will first try reconciliation.
⚖️ It also works both ways — wives can file too!
What do you think? Should the court be involved in bedroom matters? 🤔

➜Great points. When a family functions as advertised, it is a great thing indeed, but it doesn't always function this way.

Asuun:
➜You may call me a Weakling, you may call me any name, but I will never feel Bad about letting this out. God knows I'm not weak. I've kept quiet for a long Time. The universe, right from when I was birthed, hasn't been kind to me. I feel really good and happy seeing my agemates with their parents, merrying together and showing love to one another. The love, the bond and unity that exist within them is something I cherish so well.
I have a lot of questions to ask about why some events happen in life. But nobody can give me any convincing response. If I ever get married and have kids, I pray for long life so I can take care of my kids have them with me until they are of age and can defend themselves before living with someone else. I was never cared for. Didn't know my parents. The hurts are too many to mention. I never enjoyed childhood, I hate life.
➜What does it mean when people talk about fatherly or motherly love?
➜ What is family bond?
➜ What does it mean when they say "family is everything" ?

For those of u following these post, i have more to say on these present israel later p 7

➜If someone is setting out from Lagos and can end up in an part of Nigeria, please explain to us how u can know for certain where they’d end up if they had free will

FreeIgboho:
➜"LOVE NEVER FAILS" is not same as "LOVE NEVER ENDS"!!! Neither does it mean "Love never dies, ceases, passes away".
"Love never fails" means "Love always succeeds"
Something may succeed yet ends. Just as something may never end yet is not a success.
"Love never fails" means "If you love your child he'll turn out well"
While "Love never ends" means "If you love your child you'd always love your child", has nothing to do with whether he turns out well or not!
You get it now?

FreeIgboho:
➜Can't you see that one implies the other?
➜ The ONLY way you can be 100% certain what will happen is if the characters don't have free will because if they did, a decision by any random one of them can lead to a totally different outcome than the one you had planned

FreeIgboho:
➜Below are the synonyms your link lead to. I don't see any cease, still, pass away, disappear...

Kayberg:
➜No be fight, yes. But who do you think you are to condemn what GOD did not condemn?

AntiChristian:
➜Allah did send a revelation that forbid alcohol in the Qur'an.
Of course Allah created only Adam. And from him he created his wife. And from them both all men exist. Same God in your Bible that gave Adam one wife gave others more wives! I thought they say God of the Bible Jehovah is not the author of confusion! Why would He give laws for what He hates?

A legal code is a comprehensive, systematically arranged collection of laws, rules, or regulations, typically organized by subject matter, that govern a specific jurisdiction or area of law. It serves as the codified body of law for a nation, state, or other legal entity.

jaxxy:
➜I'm sorry to disappoint u but in this scenario virginity means nothing and in the case loses. Character over virginity. The op thought he win the lottery but that was not the case. A virgin I'm the village cannot be compared to a virgin in the city where there are all kinds of temptations. That cloth guy has fvcked his wife more times than him by now. Congrats to virginity.

AntiChristian:
...Yahweh makes laws protecting the First wife & previous wives here.
Note that this verse comes only 22 verses AFTER the 7th Commandment ("Thou shalt not commit adultery" in Exodus 20:14....Moses wrote all these yet he still married two wives. ...
How come polygamy is forbidden when God said this?[/size]

Nnamdipapa:
You manifested Jesus into existence in your head. We were programmed to believe that God is outside of us. That Jesus is the only path. That our salvation depends on worship, not understanding. But here's the truth. You've never seen Jesus. You've never seen God. You were told about them, and your mind accepted it. That's not truth. That's mental programming. The human mind is so powerful, it can manifest belief into illusion.

opeldavid:
➜Bro,if I will advise, it's better u pretend like nothing really happened, since she said nothing has happened just take it that way, let it slide, it's better for your mental health & emotional wellbeing.
➜ But make her understand that it's a no go area, she should put a stop to it, & also go & warn that dude to stay off. Manage the situation maturely.
➜ But if you catch her repeat same thing, take decisive action against her.

Fantazy:
➜Be a gentleman,Try to meet the man you saw her with, become friend with him, have a man -man discussion and ask him questions regarding his relationship with your wife. Make sure you act matured (no frowning, no threatening). The man will be surprised by ur reaction.
➜He will surely open up and tell you if there has been any intimacy between them. Then you decide what to do. (Note: this might take some times) but at least, it will be worth it at the end. Because as for me, I can never accept a woman who’s cheated on me.

Sand2022:
➜You're right. Fiction will match both scenarios. I felt the description should have prevented a misunderstanding. The difference is between Realistic Fiction and Fantasy Fiction.
➜ My point is that parables are realistic fictions, as opposed to fantasy fiction that is not known to happen in reality. Thanks for pointing that out.

Sand2022:
➜Thanks for pointing that out, perhaps you didn't get the point. The first part you quoted shows that parables are constructed from what happens, what the audience knows can happen in real life. It is not from fiction. For eg, if you say:
once upon a time, one table went to a space to purchase garri..... That is fiction. It doesn't happen in real life.
But if you say, once upon a time, a man travelled to Lagos to buy a phone, but was robbed by area boys....
Now this is an event that CAN happen in real life. Someone can travel to Lagos, he can buy a phone, he can also be robbed by area boys.
but the event is not expected to be taken literally as if it ACTUALLY happened, but that story was constructed from what the audience in nigeria knows CAN happen. It is not fiction like the earlier example. But you're not expected to view the story as literal, that is, as if it actually happened. It was a made up story told to teach a lesson.
➜when I said that parables are not to be taken literally in the later part you quoted, what I mean is that you don't take it as if the story ACTUALLY happened.
➜ It was just told to teach a lesson, not to be taken as a real life story, but it was borrowed from real life events. In fact some aspect of parables do sometimes get exaggerated to emphasize a point.

Fiction, literature created from the imagination, not presented as fact, though it may be based on a true story or situation. Types of literature in the fiction genre include the novel, short story, and novella. The word is from the Latin fictiō, “the act of making, fashioning, or molding.”
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Imagination: Fiction relies heavily on the author's creative imagination to build characters, plots, settings, and other elements of the story.
Not Fact: Unlike non-fiction, which aims to present factual information, fiction deliberately portrays things that are not necessarily true or based on real-world occurrences.
Narrative: Fiction is typically presented as a narrative, meaning it tells a story with a beginning, middle, and end, often involving conflict and resolution.
Various Forms: Fiction can be expressed in many forms, including novels, short stories, plays, poems, and even films.
Entertainment & Beyond: While often enjoyed for entertainment, fiction can also explore themes, ideas, and emotions, offering readers a different perspective on the world.

Kobojunkie:
Just a while ago, a 92-year-old man was convicted of rape and murder that took place back in 1967. What got him was his DNA and fingerprints, which he left at the scene of the crime. The crime was finally solved with DNA technology that came up recently, and the man was nabbed some days ago, 58 years later.

You say this man left his DNA all over your cousin, and that DNA can be used to bring him down, even if it takes 50 years from now. I hope your cousin still has it, and you all report to the authorities immediately.

Goosethetruth:
➜Good day. If you really want to understand the Bible I suggest you read backwards. Start from the seven confirmed Pauline letters of :
1. Galatians
2. Romans
3.1st Corinthians
4. 2nd Corinthians
5. Philemon.
6. Philippians.
7. 1st Thessalonians
Then
Mark.
Mathew.
Luke.
John.
Most of these stories are allegory. Once you accept this everything else falls into place.

Sand2022:
There is something about the rich man and Lazarus story I didn't consider while a PIMI JW.
I had long believed that the story is a parable, so everything there had to be explained away as pointing to something else other than real life event. This is because of several scriptures including Eccl 9:5-10; Romans 6;23

SIRTee15:
Ephesians 6.12

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

➜So Paul had politicians in mind when he said we wrestle not against flesh and blood!!!!
➜ So Roman officers are spiritual wickedness!!! Paul is using spiritual terminology for govt officials according to this heretic?

SIRTee15:
➜Pls be mindful of heresy U preach here. The human soul is not an eternal essence except it's clothed with an immortal body. The bible call human being Elohim because he's a reflection of God and he's suppose to have supreme authority on earth just like God has absolute sovereignty over the universe.
➜ The dead has no remembrance of anything. Anybody calling forth his ancestral lineage is only invoking powers and principalities in familiar spirits.

A principality (or sometimes a princedom) is a type of monarchical state or feudal territory ruled by a prince or princess. It can be either a sovereign state or a constituent part of a larger political entity. The term "principality" is often used to describe small monarchies, particularly those in Europe, where the ruler holds the title of prince or an equivalent.

Historically, principalities emerged during the Middle Ages as part of the feudal system, where local princes gained significant power within a king's domain. This led to political fragmentation and the creation of mini-states. Over time, many of these principalities consolidated into larger kingdoms and empires, while others retained their independence and prospered.

If you can spend N40m to travel abroad from naija you re not poor. I dont understand the excuses, you can study for any program online these days. Just want to go abroad and take pictures in cheap jackets and jeans something you could do without travelling.
Serves him right . An elevated idiot he is.

↪ If you stay with a woman for a year without bringing anything to the table then you might understand this man without hearing the other side of the story

↪Jesus christ of Nazareth! Now you are doing the old trick of trying to force that poster into a corner with an argument that they never at one time expounded. Just so that they can immediately be on the defensive defending stuff that not only did they never talk about but also stuff that has nothing to do with the discussion at hand. Enough already!

Brenbentondiaz:
Personally, the more religious someone is the more I try to avoid such a person. They seem to be the most obnoxious creatures on the planet. Many "Christians" in Nigeria are hero worshippers that just replaced ancient idols with their "pastors". If Christ should come to Nigeria now they will crucify Him the second time for talking against their "pastors". They don't seem to realise how deranged they sound when they start raining curses in defense of their "pastors". Smh.
