Abiagirl777:Don't count on it though, I sometimes don't understand women. I wouldn't be surprised if this lady backup her husband's account or even blame herself for what happened all for the Church business to continue untarnished and her marriage not to 'unravel' before the public. |
dopedealer:Have you tried clomid? Try it and thank me later. |
Dollar101:You right, am an Isoko; I only pick up Urhobo very slightly, but I can bet that, someone can sell me using the Urhobo language right in front of me. I think, the Urhobos are worst off in understanding Isoko. One thing the OP missed is that, there are many dialects of Isoko and Urhobo. Isoko was never part of Urhobo, the similar looking dialects only means, they must have migrated from similar or close origins, which everyone agrees is Bini. |
Jengem:I think the jury is still out on that one, check his tweets, speeches and writings and compare them to reality, and you might not be too sure about the above statement. The major differences that I can think of are; one is sick and he is aware of it, which is good and the other does not. Also, one is seeking the advise and counsel of medical professionals, which is commendable, he other is not. |
falconey:So what is evil, 'non-immaculate' corrupt or stainful about mouth action? I saw your previous post, where you ascribed specific functions for each member of the body part and then to suggest that, any use beyond those constitute evil. Going by that, I guess since mouth is for talking and eating, kissing between couples is evil, right? What about our hands, it was not made to be used to caress a lady's boobs, or private parts, so any such use must be evil, right? What about hand action by the wife on the husband, that should also be ruled evil. Finally, the Hebrew passage you quoted have a different rendering, when you read KJV..it states. "Marriage is honorable in all and the bed undefiled..." Which can be translated to mean that, what ever a married couple do between themselves on their bed is honorable and undefiled. I like sticking with KJV, because some of these new translations in a bid to 'enhanced understanding' created new meanings to the original text. Ultimately like Paul condemning Peter' action regarding eating/not eating foods offered to idol...Paul essentially said, every God created is holy, so the defilement is a matter of personal conviction and varies from one Christian to another, which means their is no one-size fit all standard for things like these not explicitly condemned in the Bible. The truth is, marriage was created by God, it is holy and honorable and God does not care about anything done within the confide of the marriage unless it is done with evil intentions e.g. deliberately doing things not to get your wife pregnant and hiding it from her, or your wife preventing it and hiding it from, or introducing diseases without alerting the other party, etc...As you can see with these evil, just like in the Bible, the act by itself is not evil, it is the intentions that made it evil. |
Ezionye:In these communities where they are reverend, the pythons don't attack humans. I haven never heard one story of eke idemili (as they are called) attack humans, even kids. |
adetoroamos:Nothing wrong there, by US laws her mother will pay the airline for chaperon, who will guide her into the plane, from there the air hostesses will take over, when she lands, they will escort her to her pickup area, where she will be handed over to a prior designated adult. If she need connecting flight, they will escort her to the departing gate and pick up her bag, where necessary. It is safer than you think. |
Explorers:Am counting more than 30 ppl on the second pic. |
mapet:Your deprivity, obscenities & show of shame, clearly shows your lack of intelligence and over blown sense of selfworth. I have met your attention seeking, dummer than door nail type before, you are the bottom feeders in society and crave attention to make up for your lack of substance and depth. You serve no useful purpose to the human race, go and hug the nearest transformer. |
mapet:Your type are all over NL, devoid of self worth and substance, but parading themselves otherwise. Understanding the constitutional role of the National Assembly is definitely above your pay grade. I doubt if you even know the meaning of IQ beyond what you can google, your lacking in intellectual display all over NL attest to that much. |
The funny thing is, police will see mallam wey carry ak47 and will go and arrest this guy for wearing bulletproof vest. |
mapet:I truly thought, this was a debate with at lease someone with common sense; but I can see that you are dummer than a door nail. Another synonym for guidelines is laws or rules, use google, if you can find your way around it. Laws are met to restrict, think of anything the executives does e.g. Set school curriculum, run schools, run Airports, sign treaties, etc...the Legislators are vested with powers to make laws either to restrict, clarifies, limits, guide, etc them as they execute these functions. |
Machinemayana:As long as one does not cause a potential difference, you can work safely with live electrical wires, I do that sometimes at home. Electricity is only dangerous if you don't understand how it work and ignores to obey its rules; other that, there is no big deal here! |
zionmade:Your helplessness, just like your hardwork does not guarantee any help from above. The Bible cleared stated that, the only thing that will guarantee help is, work combined with faith...not even helplessness combined with faith. |
donsamtex:The scriptures backup the claim that heaven helps, those who helps themselves... 1. Faith without work is not pleasing onto God, doing doing 'work' you are helping yourself. 2. Remember the parable of the three men by Jesus, whose master gave treasures to, before he travelled? The servants that made more treasures with the ones they were given, were rewarded more...the servant that made nothing, even his small treasure was taken from him and given to others. 3. Jesus turned five loaves of bread and two fishes into an abundance to feed five thousand, he would had done it without the bread/fish, chooses otherwise. 4. Pots of water was turned into wine, and not from the thin air. |
mapet:This is one childish post from you and if you are mature enough, I believe you know it... Part II, Section 5.1(a) & (b) of the Nigeria Constitution states: "5.1 Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the Executive powers of the federation: (a) shall be vested in the President and may subject as aforesaid and to the provisions of any law made by the National Assembly, be exercised by him either directly or through the Vice-President and Ministers of the Government of the Federation or officers in the public service of the federation; and (b) shall extend to the execution and maintenance of this Constitution, all laws made by the National Assembly and to all matters with respect to which the National Assembly has, for the time being, power to make laws. From the above, it is clear to any one with common sense that, the Legislators made laws that the Executive must follow/execute and they can amend those laws thereafter to either expand, limit, restrict, modify, etc what the executive must then follow/execute. |
mapet:Simple civic lessons in primary school enumerated all these. The Executive branch oversees the implementation of the laws of the land, the legislators make those laws. The Ministry of Education and the bodies of laws by which it functions was not established by the Constitution, but by an Act of the Legislators; after that Act is signed, it became law and governors how the executive branch of government oversees the ministry of Education. The Executive have a leeway in promogatings rules, guidelines, etc for the day to day running of that ministry as long as those rules & guidelines don't violate the original Act that gave the Ministry it's powers and legality. Now, the Legislators can go back and amend that Act to further clarify, Add, substract, modify, etc...both Houses must agree with the new modifications and it must be signed into law for it to replace the original Act, if the Executive vetos it, the Legislators have to see, if they have the requisite 2-3rd majority to override that veto...if they do, the new Act becomes law despite the refusal of the Executive branch. |
shaddoww:The legislators are vested with the constitutional powers to give the executive guidelines and even make new laws that restricts or limits or directs what the executives does. If as it may, the executive had a broad powers in this arena, the legislators can pass new laws to limit those powers. |
Call your friend and ask him to hit on her, he might succeed in sleeping with her, and when he does, use that pretense to kick her out. |
Why are people irate? The guy made a reference to a 'white man', the last time I checked, Jesus Christ was not a white man. |
Kaycee7:Wouldn't the 'unitive' clause you mentioned also exclude condoms, lubricants, viagra, orijin and other sex aids that are not natural parts of the human anatomy? You truly can look at the Old Testament exclusively for conclusive answers to questions relating to Christianity. Hebrew 13:4, states: 'Marriage is honorable in all and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers, the Lord will Judge'. Let's not create laws, to inhibit us where there is none, we are led by the spirit and not by some sets of DOs and DON'Ts. If you are advanced in your walk with God and the spirit convicts you in your heart that it is wrong, follow the spirit's prompting and stop, but do become a stumbling block to other Christians by telling them it is wrong. Paul rebuked Peter because of something similar but relatives to eating food sacrificed to idols, the conclusion from that passage is he that does not eat is not better than he that eats; for some the spirit will prompt them not to eat and if they eat, it is a sin; for others, they will receive no prompting and eat and they are guiltyless...Peter's problem was, he was trying to judge everyone by a singular yardstick, let's not do it. |
ELKHALIFAISIS:I don't know the Bible you are reading that might have given you the impression that America is some kind of heaven or heaven. Stop projecting what you saw in movies or heard in the news about America. The reality is farther than that, I will agree that, there are opportunities in America, but the sad truth is the same can be said about Nigeria. Obama is not from Kenya, he is a second generation US citizen and do not forget that, he is half-white and was almost entirely brought up by his white mother and white maternal families. And yes, there is tribalism and racism in America and the fact that Obama became President does not diminish that, don't use an exception to make a rule or an example; there were 43 white Presidents before him and after him there will be many more white Presidents. Do not get me wrong, I am not saying there are wide spread tribalism and racism in the US, but to think and act otherwise is myopic. Neither are mind saying that America does not have its advantages, it does and so does Nigeria, but those pluses does not make America heavenly. Believe me, not all dreams come true in America, there are countless homeless, hungry and jobless people in America despite their education, service and hard work. It is obvious that, you have either not step foot into America or have not lived there. My response to the prior post is very valid and it is myopic to think that, it is only those who refused to work or go to school that find it difficult in the USA. I sincerely pray that; Baba God will bless your hustle and grant you, your coveted America visa, so that you too can come to 'heaven'. |
ELKHALIFAISIS:On average African Americans are finding life tough in the US. In some quarters, there is strong friction between AA and black new generation immigrants to America. The later are more educated and very mobile in society and do not have the segregation and ill treatments from whites weighing them down. |
krendo:You are wrong, Magu is an 'Acting Chairman' and not the 'Chairman'. There is no law stating how long he can act, neither is there a law indicating that, if the Senate rejects his confirmation he becomes illegal. The Nigerian constitution is silence here, so the Senate does not have a leg to stand, should they go to court. Plus, the constitution did not say Senate should confirm people working for the Executive in 'Acting' capacity. This is a glaring loophole in the Nigerian constitution and absent of a law forbidding it, the Executive branch is not out of line to continue the appointment of Magu in the acting capacity. The US constitution recognizes this loophole and blocked it by stating that, the President can only make appointments without Senate confirmation, when the Senate is on break or recess and that such appointments must be confirmed by the following year or the position revert back to been vacant...which means, one can only be in acting capacity for a max of two years. |
MrBrownJay1:Thought almost all jobs in Nigeria, probably close to 95% starts off as temporary or propationary and subject to further confirmation before they become 'permanent'? I deliberately put 'permanent' under quotes as that is a misnormal, as there are truly no permanent jobs unless you are your own boss. You can be sacked for any reason whatsoever despite labor laws weak protections. |
dulux07:How you get paid depends on if you own the car or you are driving a partner's car. If you own the car, you register an account directly with Uber. If driving in Nigeria, customers can either add debit/credit to their account and fares are deducted automatically saved to a 'pocket' by Uber. If the customer is cash-based, you have to collect the money from them after the service. The App keeps track of all monies and the balance is paid into your registered account at the start of each week for the previous week you worked. I don't know how Uber does it, if the balance of the money are with you via cash collection versus debit/credit card paid customers...but Uber can program their App to balance that out, such that, the balance will always be in their favor by routing more debit/credit customers your way to offset the cash you already collected or anticipate to collect. Remember Uber takes their 25% off. You as the driver pays the tolls, but this is passed on to the customer, the good thing is, they also passed on a return toll (if applicable) to the customer. If you drive for a partner, in addition to Uber's 25% off, you also have to enter into an agreement with the partner on his percentage cut...in this scenario, Uber pays the partner and the partner pays you base on you guys agreement. The truth is, the way Uber fees are structured, even if you work your ass off, it is a high class low wage job, good enough to get by for the time being. |
Akinagirl:If he is the 'son of a bitch', can you clarify who that bitch might be? |
asuustrike2009:Tape your mouth close, especially with celotape, before going to bed will surely stop it. |
Gurumaharaji:Because he is symbolic to a good section of Nigerians aka Biafrians? |
torres89:You are making things up as you go! Paul was not speaking to Jews, he was speaking to the Born Again Brethren from the Church in Corinth. As you you saw, he was referring to 'Church' and not 'Temple'. He also spoke to them about speaking in tongues and order in the Church. Jews do not speak in tongues and Order of worship in the Temple has also been per-ordained by God. Yes, there is a similar law like this for the Jews as contained in the laws, but that does not confuses this passage and the intended audience as the passage is very clear and direct. Please, note that one is not hear to condemn Churches that do it, just pointing out what the Bible said devoid of emotions and prejudice period! |
eleojo23:Lust, emotions, intimacy or sex is not involved; so it can't be fornication or adulterous and it is neither abominable, since you can't point not to a single verse in the Bible that condemns it. |
ikeepitreal:There are no side effects, unless one have an underling condition or artificially acquired the strength to 'pound away for hours' from some drugs or substance. That been said, there benefits of staying long, it is healthier, good for your heart and as with any delayed satisfaction, when you eventually comes, it is harder, better, more fullfiling, more relaxing and more relieving. You wouldn't understand these far riches experiences if you just mount, inject and unmount...but those in the house that have resisted the urge to immediately inject after mounting are noodling theirs heads along and truly understands this satisfying experience that I speak about. Nature even thought us this well...are you eating food? Slow and steady is far better than shoving that thing your stomach with rapid succession, same with drinking...are you exercising or running? Well, slow and steady is far better that stop burst of speed...Even when we poo, slow and steady wins all the time...Sleeping, longer naps are far better than short ones...Next time, you do it, don't be in a rush, slow down, savor the moment, breath slowly, take in every second of it...you will be surprise to at the heights of your satisfaction. |
