Politics / Bola Ahmed Tinubu Is Doing Well By Reno Omokri by losak9111(m): 5:23pm On Feb 24
Before subsidy removal, Nasarawa was receiving ₦4.3 billion monthly federal allocation. After subsidy removal, Nasarawa is receiving ₦12.3 billion monthly. Enugu's monthly allocation went from ₦3.4 billion monthly to ₦6.7 billion. This year, the thirty states are projected to receive ₦5.6 trillion. Last year, they got ₦3.3 trillion. And their wage bill has not increased. It remains the same. In addition to this, their Internally Generated Revenue has also increased. Their VAT revenue has also risen. If not for the heavy foreign debt that some states are owing and which the Federal Government deducted from source, their federal allocation may even have quadrupled!

So tell me, why should you be facing economic hardship when your Governor receives double the allocation he used to receive? Why is the Nigerian Labour Congress not protesting against them? What has your state government done to alleviate your poverty? Why is it only Tinubu you are facing, and leaving your Governor? At least Tinubu is paying ₦35,000 wage support to federal employees. What is your Governor paying?

We will face Tinubu head-on in 2027. If Nigerians vote for us in the Peoples Democratic Party, we can replace him with our candidate. But for now, I personally believe he is doing the right thing with fuel subsidy removal and Naira flotation. You, too, do your part and #GrowNairaBuyNaija

Religion / Re: Is Polygamy A Sin? By Reno Omokri by losak9111(m): 7:33am On Feb 11
Rono Omokiri is right that monogamy is not a sin. The pentecostal churches are the one that emphasizes this erroneous teaching. The Bible gives example of. (1) those who are single but did not do the will of God and are punished e.g Cain.Nabal (2) those who are single who did the Will of God and had the favour of God e.g Abel Paul (3) Those with one wife who did not do the will of God and are punished e.g Adam, Ahab ,Ananaiah ( 4) Those with one wife who did the of God e.g Enouck, Noah. Hezekiah (5 ) Those with more than one wife who did not do the will of God e.g Jeroboam, Rehoboam (6) Those with more than one wife who found the favour of God e.g Abraham, David, Jacob Solomon Number of wives is not a factor of getting the favour of God but our personal relationship with God. As rightly pointed out in the right -up, Paul:s stand is it is better not to marry and was trying to justify this by saying that those who do not marry will try to please God but there is no portion, other than Paul 's book, where the bible says this. We should remember that God is no respecter of anybody neither does he changes. If it is a sin ,no polygamist could have gotten His favour as pointed out in 6 above God even instructed Moses in Deut 21:15 what to do in case there is a problem with a man with two wives

Is Polygamy a Sin?

I have repeatedly been asked to give my views on the issue of polygamy, and the pressure keeps building. Primarily due to the increase of prostate cancer in our society. I have offered my views before, and perhaps those asking me for my thoughts are unaware.

On polygamy, when you consider it biologically, only 3% of mammals are monogamous for life. Please fact-check me. When you now break it down further into mammals that are primates, the number drops significantly to 1%. Biologically, the sexual libido of a male mammal, be it human beings, lions, rabbits, or other species, is too high to be accommodated by one female. This is a biological fact. Male primates have a higher sexual drive than females, except in very rare cases where there have been hormonal defects.

Now, when you look at it Scripturally, the views I will give here are my own interpretations based solely on devoted study of Scripture and not something that the Holy Spirit told me. It is also not the standard view in Pentecostal, Evangelical or mainstream view of Christendom. This is purely and simply my personal opinion based on my study of Scripture.

I am legally married to only one wife. I have never been married to two women simultaneously.

However, I do not condemn polygamy. For the following reasons:

1. God Himself gave David multiple wives. As we can see from the following verse of Scripture:

"I gave your master’s house to you, and your master’s wives into your arms. I gave you all Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more."-2 Samuel 12:18.

1. Abraham, Jacob, David, and many other patriarchs and pastors were polygamous.

1. I am not sure that one woman can satisfy the sexual libido of one man for a lifetime, especially given that biologically, women experience menopause in their forties, which comes with decreased libido. In contrast, biologically, men can maintain their libido into their eighties. What is a married man to do in such circumstances?

1. Scripture prescribes monogamy and even total abstinence for only Bishops. We see this in the following verses:

"A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;"-1 Timothy 3:2.

"It is good for them to remain unmarried, as I am."-1 Corinthians 7:8.

Having said the above, it would seem that BEFORE the fall, when man was still innocent, God's intention was for monogamy. The reason I say this is because He created only one wife for Adam, and His definition of marriage appears to support one man and one wife, as we can see from Genesis 2:24:

"That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh."

However, after the fall of man, men and women were punished differently-Genesis 3:16-19.

As a result, different things happened to their bodies when man fell and lost perfection. One of the differences is that their biological clocks were no longer in equal alignment. Men retained virility much longer than women, which may be (this is an opinion, not an insight from Scripture or the Spirit) why God allowed polygamy after the fall.

In conclusion, I believe that polygamy is not a sin, and that it is better than adultery, and gay marriage. But these are my personal views, and I could be wrong, and because I could be wrong, I don't want to mislead people, or undermine their faith. Especially as we will each individually give accounts of our lives to our Creator. Therefore, approach God in prayer and get your own enlightenment on this issue.

Thank you for reading, and may God bless you.

Politics / Questions A Twitter Asked Our Former President Goodluck Jonathan by losak9111(m): 5:37am On Nov 29, 2023
BREAKING 💯
Dear President Goodluck Jonathan, ( Former president federal Republic of Nigeria)
@GEJonathan


Good afternoon, sir. My name is ify , and I am writing to you from federal capital territory,
Abuja Nigeria 💯

I trust all is going well with your Excellency. 💯

As one of your numerous supporters and someone who believes in you, I am compelled to ask you a very important question with the hope that you will respond because of the urgency .💯

Sir, could you please explain to Nigerians, especially people from Former Eastern Nigeria ( South East & South South), where you coincidentally originates from
why the entire Seaports in that part of the country Nigeria is not functional, namely Seaport in Rivers, warri Seaport in Delta State, cross Rivers and Ibom deep SeaportAkwa ibom Why are they not in operation, sir? 💯

I decided to inquire from you because many people are asking the same question, which is, " Why didn't Jonathan open them?" and that is a fair and legitimate question to ask. 💯

So, sir, with profound respect, what stopped your administration from opening those seaports that would have created millions of jobs for Nigerians?particularly for people in that region. 💯

Secondly, we all preach and talk about one Nigeria, which is a good thing until this time. 💯

Sir,where is the fairness in building another seaport in Lagos state and Ondo state, respectively, in one region of the country, whereas 5 Seaports are under padlock in former Eastern region 💯

Finally, sir, for equity, fairness, economic balancing, job creation, and preservation of oneness of the Nigerian state could please as matter of urgency persuade the federal government of Nigeria to open all the Seaports in former Eastern Region (South East & South South) 💯

Let the healing begin from opening all the seaports if Nigerian leaders are serious about moving the country forward 💯

Thanking you in advance
Yours sincerely
Ify. @ifeanyiakorjuru

I got married over ten years ago, but unknownly for me I didn't know about the genotype stuff that time until I got my second born.
I discovered I have AC as my genotype while my wife is AS, so my first child is AC, second child SC while third child is AA. We only have SC as sickle cell which is not too serious like SS.

I stopped given birth almost five years ago to avoid another mistake in the family. During all these child birth, there is no male child which is giving me serious headache.
My family is on my neck about a male child because I am only male child of my father so they need male child from me.

My question is can I go and marry another wife which can be AA genotype because I seriously need male child or and options please!

Family / Uganda Man Married Seven Wives At The Same Time by losak9111(m): 9:17pm On Sep 11, 2023
PHOTOS: Ugandan Businessman Marries Seven Wives In One Day

A Ugandan businessman, Habib Nsikonnene, wedded seven wives on Sunday, September 10, in Uganda.

This was revealed in photos shared by Capital FM Uganda on X, formerly Twitter.

The names of the wives are Mariam, Madinah, Aisha, Zainabu, Fatuma, Rashida, and Musanyusa, who is said to his first wife and has been with him for seven years.

Two of the seven wives are also said to be biological sisters.

It was also reported that Nsikonnene bought brand new cars as presents for each of them, with each of them having their cars labelled with their own names.

In his speech at the reception, he commended his wives for being loyal to him, saying, "My wives harbour no jealousy amongst themselves. I introduced them separately and decided to wed them all at once to make one big happy family. I am still a young man and in the near future, God willing, I cannot say this is the end of it.”

Dear Sire White,

Thank you for your feedback. This was not written in a vacuum. I came up with these historical facts, backed up with documentary evidence to disprove very wild claims by Radio Biafra and some other progenitors. You don't expect me and others to keep quiet while some people revise history.

Read what you wrote. You say you are waiting for the tribunal's verdict. And you also say you want Biafra. Is that not contradictory? How can you want "divorce from Nigeria" (to use your words) and also want the tribunal to give you a favourable verdict? Should you not choose one or the other?

Anyway, thanks again, and may God bless you.

Religion / Sow Your Seed To Your Neighbours In Need Not Church by losak9111(m): 3:53pm On Sep 05, 2023
As a christian, if you are really interested in SOWING SEEDS to be able to receive blessings from God, look around you now, there are people who have not eaten anything today and they still don't have what to eat, even if it is one person, drop just N1k.

N1k to the needy is more important to God than N100k to a church. Yes, you heard me right, if you give say 1k to five people today (N5k), God will bless you more than the sower of N100k seed to a church.

#Matthew 25:35-40
For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in. I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’

Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’

And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’

Mind you, the N1k should not be for any ONLINE URGENT N2k person o, it should be for those who don't can't even afford DATA.

Religion / What Is Your Take On This Issue? by losak9111(m): 12:11am On Jul 13, 2023
A member of a church underwent a major operation, and his medical bill was N245,000. And he couldn't afford it.

His brother went to the Pastor on Sunday and told him to assist. The Pastor picked the microphone and told the church that our brother needs N245,000 to settle his medical bill.

Members began to donate.

After donations, what was realized was N760,000. And after the church, the Pastor counted N245,000 and gave the brother to the sick person, and then he put the balance into the church account.

The sick person's family are aggrieved. They're of the opinion that members raised that money for their brother and not the church so the church has no right to keep back any amount given to their brother. Cos the announcement was specifically to raise money for the sick brother.

The pastor is saying that they requested for N245k and he has given it to them. So whatever is left belongs to the church.

What is your take on this

AS LONGEST REIGNING OBA IN SOUTH WEST NIGERIA, OBA JAMES ADELUSI ALADESURU II (JP) THE ONIGEDE OF Igede Ekiti WILL CELEBRATES 64 YEARS CORONATION ANNIVERSARY ON THE THRONE (1959-2023)

Kabiyesi, His Royal Majesty, Oba James Adelusi Aladesuru II (JP) Petu Bi Owuro, the paramount ruler of the ancient town of Igede-Ekiti kingdom and its environs ascended the throne of his progenitors on the 26th of June, 1959 at a tender age of 26.

Oba J.A. Aladesuru II (JP) was born in 1933 and Crowned as 27th Onigede of Igede Ekiti on 26th June, 1959. He is a descendant of the OKIRIBITI ADEYIBAKA dynasty. He succeeded Oba Olubusi Apata from Onaowuro family who reigned between 1950-1957.

Oba Agunsoyebiosupa Aladesuru (I) who was the king between (1890-1941) and his wife, Olori Johanah Ogunkolade Aladesuru who was the Eleventh wife were the parents of the king and his two siblings namely: Late Princess (Dns) Olufunmilayo Fatunla (Nee Aladesuru) and Prince John Aladebusuyi Aladesuru.

Oba J.A. Aladesuru attended Baptist Central School, Igede Ekiti. He was trained as a photographer at ISEYIN between 1955 and 1956. He worked as a clerk in Upper Region Agricultural Farm ILORA near Iseyin, Oyo State between August and November 1956.

He thought in PINNOCK memorial Baptist Primary School [PMPS] Via ILORA between 1957 and August 1958. He was transferred to First Baptist Primary School Ilora via Oyo as a teacher and later transferred back to Pinnock Memorial Primary School in January 1959.

History has it that at the turn of making Late Oba Agunsoyebiosupa Aladesuru 1 Onigede of Igede, the father of the present strong and handsome Oba, the king, the choice was made without any election, it was a matter of bringing him home from IWOROKO EKITI where he was residing.

Same thing happened to his son. While Oba J.A ALADESURU was at Ilora he did visit his friend, High Chief J. A. Olowere, the Osolo Of Igede at Ibadan. Chief Osolo during his visit to Igede was cut in the web of the struggle to have his friend installed as the King.

When Chief Osolo met his friend later, he seized the opportunity to brief the Prince now the KING on the idea being muted back at home. However, the Prince i.e Oba J.A Aladesuru's reaction was as spontaneous as it was negative. He Rebuffed the offer in its totality.

Highly disenchanted with the development, the Prince drafted a strongly-worded letter that he intended to send to his people at home. But God tempered his annoyance with some elements of rationality as he decided to have his letter perused by his friend before being dispatched. To his eternal credit, Chief Olowere counseled his friend against sending the letter and the latter complied.

Mr J. A. Olofin (Balogun of Igede) who was then a councillor in Ado District Council as well as a member of Ekiti Divisional Council went ahead to convene an inclusive conference of all Igede people on the issue of Onigede chieftaincy in early 1959. It was held at the house of High Chief Aro Famoroti. In attendance were the High Chiefs (Agbailu) and eminent Igede indigenes. The conference main theme was "Onigede Selection and Rule of Law"

At the end of the conference, a position paper endorsed by all stakeholders was prepared and forwarded to the Western Regional Government in Ibadan for necessary approval. Apart from Mr Olofin, other known indigenes of Igede who played notable roles included Chief Mrs J. A. Fatunla, Mr E. O. D. Adedipe and Mr S. A. Fajemilehin and Chief J. O. Osuntokun, the then Minister of Local Government in the Western Region also made a valuable input.

Government approval of Prince James Adelusi Aladesuru as the Onigede-elect finally came very early in 1959.

On the receipt of the official letter of approval from the government, the Enumo met and fixed the crowing ceremony of the Onigede for 26th June, 1959. But the greatest task remained getting the Prince to accept the offer. The clarion call to bring the Prince home got intensified in all quarters. Indeed, it became the dominant issue in public discourse in the town and in any gathering of sons and daughters of Igede outside the town.

At a point in time, one of the Princes who had earlier been sensitized by Chief Ogundana decided to bell the cart. His name was Prince Simeon Aladesuru. Because of the sensitivity of the mission to be accomplished, i.e bringing home his brother, he had to prepare very well. In this wise, his sense of history, versatility and experience all combined, put him in good stead to accomplish the task. Thus, with the letter of appointment of his junior brother as Onigede carefully tusked inside his traveling bag, Prince Simeon headed for Ilora.

On Monday, 8th June 1959, he arrived at his destination. Coincidentally, he saw his brother a distance away going out with a view to executing an assignment given earlier to him by his church. The naming ceremony of a newly born baby to a co-church member was to take place and he had been assigned to lead the solemn ceremony.

On sighting his visitor, the Prince's eyes were enveloped with darkness and uncertainty. He was thoroughly confused. Though he had not been told, but he already knew the likely reason for the visit of the least-expected august visitor. All the same, the message was finally delivered to him and despite the initial mixed feelings with which the young Prince received the message, he finally bowed to the verdict of fate.

He summoned courage and went ahead to perform the initial planned naming ceremony of a co-church member.

Very early the next day, Tuesday, June 9, 1959, the two Princes set out for Igede en route Ibadan. But throughout the period that the journey lasted, it was a gory tale of emotional pains for the would-be Onigede. For once, he felt quite nostalgic for Ilora and the good times he had had in the community and on the other hand, he looked at the challenges posed by the task ahead with trepidation.

But the situation in Igede was at variance with his expectations when he and his half brother arrived the town later on the day. As a matter of fact, his anxieties fizzled away when they got home as they were welcomed ceremoniously by the people of the town.

Immediately Kabiyesi was crowned, he became a rallying point of Local Government administration and took effective control of his chiefs and the entire people of Igede. The age groups were coordinated and strengthened, while Elegbes and the war veterans of Igede were encouraged to hold their meeting regularly. Kabiyesi elevated some deserving chiefs to Enumo status to ease his administration.

The 64 eventful years reign of Kabiyesi has no doubt brought remarkable and visible progress, development and lofty achievements and attitude to various segments, including but not limited to development in Education, Health care delivery, Sanitation, Politics, Social-cultural life, road network, commercial and infrastructure. These have advanced tremendously in the last 64 years of his reign.

History has it that at the turn of making Late Oba Agunsoyebiosupa Aladesuru 1 Onigede of Igede, the father of the present strong and handsome Oba, the king, the choice was made without any election, it was a matter of bringing him home from IWOROKO EKITI where he was residing.

Same thing happened to his son. While Oba J.A ALADESURU was at Ilora he did visit his friend, High Chief J. A. Olowere, the Osolo Of Igede at Ibadan. Chief Osolo during his visit to Igede was cut in the web of the struggle to have his friend installed as the King.

When Chief Osolo met his friend later, he seized the opportunity to brief the Prince now the KING on the idea being muted back at home. However, the Prince i.e Oba J.A Aladesuru's reaction was as spontaneous as it was negative. He Rebuffed the offer in its totality.

Highly disenchanted with the development, the Prince drafted a strongly-worded letter that he intended to send to his people at home. But God tempered his annoyance with some elements of rationality as he decided to have his letter perused by his friend before being dispatched. To his eternal credit, Chief Olowere counseled his friend against sending the letter and the latter complied.

Mr J. A. Olofin (Balogun of Igede) who was then a councillor in Ado District Council as well as a member of Ekiti Divisional Council went ahead to convene an inclusive conference of all Igede people on the issue of Onigede chieftaincy in early 1959. It was held at the house of High Chief Aro Famoroti. In attendance were the High Chiefs (Agbailu) and eminent Igede indigenes. The conference main theme was "Onigede Selection and Rule of Law"

At the end of the conference, a position paper endorsed by all stakeholders was prepared and forwarded to the Western Regional Government in Ibadan for necessary approval. Apart from Mr Olofin, other known indigenes of Igede who played notable roles included Chief Mrs J. A. Fatunla, Mr E. O. D. Adedipe and Mr S. A. Fajemilehin and Chief J. O. Osuntokun, the then Minister of Local Government in the Western Region also made a valuable input.

Government approval of Prince James Adelusi Aladesuru as the Onigede-elect finally came very early in 1959.

On the receipt of the official letter of approval from the government, the Enumo met and fixed the crowing ceremony of the Onigede for 26th June, 1959. But the greatest task remained getting the Prince to accept the offer. The clarion call to bring the Prince home got intensified in all quarters. Indeed, it became the dominant issue in public discourse in the town and in any gathering of sons and daughters of Igede outside the town.

At a point in time, one of the Princes who had earlier been sensitized by Chief Ogundana decided to bell the cart. His name was Prince Simeon Aladesuru. Because of the sensitivity of the mission to be accomplished, i.e bringing home his brother, he had to prepare very well. In this wise, his sense of history, versatility and experience all combined, put him in good stead to accomplish the task. Thus, with the letter of appointment of his junior brother as Onigede carefully tusked inside his traveling bag, Prince Simeon headed for Ilora.

On Monday, 8th June 1959, he arrived at his destination. Coincidentally, he saw his brother a distance away going out with a view to executing an assignment given earlier to him by his church. The naming ceremony of a newly born baby to a co-church member was to take place and he had been assigned to lead the solemn ceremony.

On sighting his visitor, the Prince's eyes were enveloped with darkness and uncertainty. He was thoroughly confused. Though he had not been told, but he already knew the likely reason for the visit of the least-expected august visitor. All the same, the message was finally delivered to him and despite the initial mixed feelings with which the young Prince received the message, he finally bowed to the verdict of fate.

He summoned courage and went ahead to perform the initial planned naming ceremony of a co-church member.

Very early the next day, Tuesday, June 9, 1959, the two Princes set out for Igede en route Ibadan. But throughout the period that the journey lasted, it was a gory tale of emotional pains for the would-be Onigede. For once, he felt quite nostalgic for Ilora and the good times he had had in the community and on the other hand, he looked at the challenges posed by the task ahead with trepidation.

But the situation in Igede was at variance with his expectations when he and his half brother arrived the town later on the day. As a matter of fact, his anxieties fizzled away when they got home as they were welcomed ceremoniously by the people of the town.

Immediately Kabiyesi was crowned, he became a rallying point of Local Government administration and took effective control of his chiefs and the entire people of Igede. The age groups were coordinated and strengthened, while Elegbes and the war veterans of Igede were encouraged to hold their meeting regularly. Kabiyesi elevated some deserving chiefs to Enumo status to ease his administration.

The 64 eventful years reign of Kabiyesi has no doubt brought remarkable and visible progress, development and lofty achievements and attitude to various segments, including but not limited to development in Education, Health care delivery, Sanitation, Politics, Social-cultural life, road network, commercial and infrastructure. These have advanced tremendously in the last 64 years of his reign.

BOOM �

POLYGAMY! POLYGAMY!! POLYGAMY!!!

You will all agree with me that one of the most controversial word in Christiandom today is POLYGAMY

Are you a religious scholar? a Pastor? a Theologian? a born again Christian?.......?

Please, feel free to constructively contribute, castigate, correct, admonishe, advice, preach........in accordance with the provisions of the Holy Bible (the word of God)

Before I go further, I will like you to have the following questions at the back of your minds.

1). Who was the first person to engage in the act of POLYGAMY according to the Bible?

2). Is POLYGAMY a sin in the Bible?

3). Did God in the Bible condemn POLYGAMY?

4). Those that according to the Bible engaged in POLYGAMY, are they in Hell?

5). What is the fate of the polygamous Children according to the Bible?

6). Is marriage a traditional act or religious act?

7). Why do Christians condemn POLYGAMY?

8. What are the effects of POLYGAMY in Christiandom?

9). Has God changed?

GEAR 1
Lamech was the first man to marry more than one wife, Gen 4:19

GEAR 2
Godly/Holy persons that engaged in POLYGAMY according to the Bible included Abdon, Judges 12:13-14; Abijah, 2 Chronicles 13-21; Abraham, Gen 16-1-3, Gen 25:1; Ahab, 1 kings 20:1-3;
Ahaseurus, Esther 1:9,
Ashur, 1 Chronicles 4:5,
Belshazzar, Daniel 5:2,
Ben-Hadad (who married Ahab's wives), Caleb, 1 Chronicles 2:18-19, David (had 8wives), 1 Samuel 18:27, 25:39, 25:42, 2 Samuel 3:5, 5:13, 12:7-8, 12:24.
Eliphaz, Gen 36:11-12.
Elkanah, 1 Samuel 1:1-2
Esau, Gen 26:34
Ezra, 4:17-18;
Gideon, Judges 8:30....and many more.

We had not fewer than 40 Godly and ungodly men that engaged in POLYGAMY from the Bible. Also, we had not less than 43 POLYGAMY cases from the Bible.

GEAR 3
Had God condemned POLYGAMY?
No! God NEVER did In all the POLYGAMY cases mentioned in the Bible, God did not condemn any axcept David who snatched Uriah's wife. God said to David ' in 2 Samuel 12:8; I gave your master's house to you, and your master's wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more." Why did God himself say so to David?

GEAR 4
Is POLYGAMY a sin?
Those that engage in POLYGAMY are they in hell?
Is Abraham in hell? (Luke 16:19-31)
Is Jacob in hell?
Is David, Solomon, Elkanah, Ezra.....@all, in hell?

GEAR 5
Does God permit POLYGAMY? The answer of course is Yes! In Genesis 21:10, God said If he (man) marries another woman, he must not deprive the first one of her food, clothing and marital rights. In 2 Samuel 12:8. God Himself said to David ,"...I gave you your master Wives,. if you need more, I would have given you"

GEAR 6
What is the fate of the polygamous children? Condemned or
Favoured?
Why was Joseph, Samuel, Solomon.... Highly favoured?

GEAR 7
Before religion there was marriage.
Gen 1:26-28, Gen 2:18-25

The issue of Monogamy was purely the tradition of the western world whom were our religious colonial masters. In the land of the White, traditionally, rivalry is a taboo. But the Jews (Israelites) and the Edomites (the blacks) shares the same tradition. A widow is not allowed to be seen in the Street, but be remarried to their husbands relatives or friends, Gen 38.

GEAR 8
Why do Christians and the west now condemn the act of POLYGAMY?
The new testament may completely be the reason as it has responded almost seamlessly on POLYGAMY matters. The new testament talks about every aspect of Christian living except POLYGAMY. Mathew 19:3-9, Jesus spoke about God initial plan for man. He actually condemned divorce but did not mention POLYGAMY. Paul admonishment to Timothy on the act and how to elect Church leadership, just like the case of levites of old (Moses...), 1 Timothy 3. The point of contention here is, If there were no men with more than a wife in the Church, Paul Won't have mentioned it. Also in 1 Corinthians 7:39.

GEAR 9
Effects of POLYGAMY:
POLYGAMY has it merits and demerits in the society and Christiandom at large.

1). In the Society, the imMortality rate is high in the female folks compared to men. The number of girls birth rate is higher than that of men, and the number of men dead rate is higher than that of women. The number of widows keep increasing geometry adding up to the number of single women in the society.
This leads to increase of infidelity, adultery, fornication in the society compared to the days of our forefathers. So pathetic nowadays to see young single girls fighting with widows and women old to be their mum for the ownerships of a guy.

2). MONOGAMY has caused reduction in the population in the Christiandom. God says in Gen 1:28 'God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground'. But what do we have today? Christians going into family planning. The Israelites lived 430yrs only in Egypt, but Pharaoh became scared because of their rapid growth in population. I can't imagine that would happen if they were practicing Family planning Monogamy

3). There's increase in population of the youth. Very soon Our children, particularly daughters (that we are trying to protect today) will be used as sex slaves because monogamy would have denied them an opportunity to marry.
C.) There are millions of stranded women in the South and, may not likely get an husband forever because of argument against polygamy; whereas hardly can a women be stranded in the North; thanks to polygamy..

GEAR 10
Has God Changed?
God of Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, .....the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, is the beginning and the end, the Alfa and Omega, He is the same yesterday, today and for ever; has not changed.

CONCLUSION
What is the way out?
Christians don't be "Paul when he was Saul'

Pastors, be careful what you preach on the pulpit about POLYGAMY as what you preach, instead of becoming light, rather, it is destroying Christianity

Hosea 4:6, 4:6 my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.

"Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.

May the lord add blessing to this teaching... AMEN

Religion / Think About These! by losak9111(m): 10:34am On Jan 29, 2023
What do you think

"You sleep in a hotel comfortably and leave your driver to sleep in the car. Early morning you sit at the owner's corner and yell at your horse to drive carefully.

You effectively handed your life over to a stressed human, whose sleep was not comfortable. Blame your educated brain in case you guys have accident".

Your Children are doing well in their Private Schools in the City,but ur maid was impregnated by one useless man while she was in the Village,the young lady had left the daughter at home with her aged mother before coming to Urban area for her livelihood, yet the child left at home couldn't go to Public school because u do deprive her the little salary u are paying.
If one day,one of ur children comes to spend weekend with you and the lady gives him Poison, don't blame the maid,but blame the devil in u.
Ika ni e,no other name best suitable for u.

You are one of the sponsors of ur pastor's Child ,who is studying abroad,u also contributed 80% to the new Church auditorium,while Ur mother is still LAPO 's client at home just because of ur sibling's School fees ,all in name of sowing seeds.
You will definitely reap evil because
you are the real definition of elelesinrin.
Yours is not different from pharisees.

Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.
And sometimes exchange contacts.

But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy banana, corn etc by the roadside, our bargaining game gets off to the roof.

Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even take out her time to explain how difficult it was for her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough. But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying.

Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. But because 'half bread is better chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain.

In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well. God will definitely provide.''

While you happily chop the luscious banana. Take some seconds out and think about this.

I'm always moved to tears when I see people who genuinely and helplessly hawk petty goods to feed and survive for that day, especially women and children.
And I sometimes give them little coins without buying anything from them which has attracted blessings.
Can't forget a day after buying boli at Ifaki-Ekiti, I dashed the old woman, Just #400,the next I could hear from her was,''my son,any day kidnapers come after u, miraculously,u would escape."
I looked at her and said which kind prayer is this,because I never witnessed kidnapping attempt,but surprisingly, just 3 days after, kidnappers stormed my residence,they captured me,but how they didn't succeed in taking me away or killed me remains Miracle.

Please don't bargain hard with small vendors especially roadside hawkers/traders. They do business not to buy designer bags, trendy phones and watches, Gucci shoes and designer clothes but to LIVE and EAT for that day and the children share the remaining money to take to school the next day (if any left).
"He who gives to the poor makes the surest saving for the Hereafter.".

*Think about it*

Good morning all.

I think that is the reason you don't allow your congregation to ask questions during your school service sermon, brainwashed is the key
Dtruthspeaker:


God was not punishing David for taking another man's wife, He was punishing David because David don to do too much exactly how Sodom and Gomo did too much until God said it was enough and time for Him to act.

Which is why we say your cup don full!

The op did exactly what homosexuals and tatooers do all because they are not immediately destroyed.

A case of Ecclesiastes 8:11
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

And you have fallen into this hole of destruction in taking for granted the goodness of The Lord in His being slow to anger.

So shall destruction come on all those who did not heed to Instruction.

Health / Advantages And Disadvantages Of Breast Feeding During Sex by losak9111(m): 9:40am On Jan 15, 2023
Question:
Good morning sir please let me understand the advantages and disadvantages for man that usually drink the Brest of a woman when they were making sex together?

Reply:
As a medical person there are several advantages and little disadvantage of a man sucking his wife's breast however the following are some of the advantages of it:

1. *When a man sucks the breast, your hormones are stimulated and eventually you get that heavenly feeling one gets while having sex. One great thing God created in human being is orgasm. Women are not quick in getting orgasm but with the help of breast sucking, the orgasm is felt as quick as possible.*

2. *Breast milk isn’t only meant for meant for babies but also quite beneficial for adults too… It increases an adult’s immunity just like it does in children*

3. *AIDS IN ACHIEVING A FIRMER FACE, SMOOTHER SKIN*

4. *It is a natural remedy that stimulates the immune system resulting in the production of antibodies that can protect against viruses. This process is called CROSS IMMUNO THERAPY.*

4. *REDUCES RISK OF BREAST CANCER
Study has shown that sucking and massaging the breast simultaneously and vigorously helps to reduce chances of breast lumps which can develop to cancer*

To mention but few sucking lady's breast is both beneficial to man and woman

*disadvantages of breast sucking*

1. Where the Lady or wife is not hygienic then man is at the risk of absorbing flesh dirt which increases the body cholesterol of the man

Jesus has settled the matter, so everyone is free to choose whether we are in tune with what God arranged for everlasting life or turn against what God's Son said.

Polygamy is not sin and will never be sin, so far you do it in right way sir
MaxInDHouse:


Those people all lived by conscience and some by the laws given to the Israelites but God told the Israelites that another prophet will be sent to teach them what they must do to gain everlasting life! Deuteronomy 18:18-19

Now before Jesus most of these people died so they will be resurrected as RIGHTEOUS men because they were anticipating the coming of Christ who will teach them how to gain eternal life. So after their resurrection they will be taught what the Christ (whom they've longed to see throughout their lifetime) taught while they're dead. That's what 1,000 years reign of Christ means, they will all learn how to apply what Jesus taught when Satan and his agents are no longer around to mislead anyone! Revelations 20:1-3

After resurrected their former marriages has been dissolved by death so they will all become youths again {Job 33:25} then they can start afresh to marry one wife just as Jesus said we should revert to the standard God set in the beginning:
ONE Adam=ONE Eve! smiley

[quote author=MaxInDHouse post=120021312]All dead humans are in Hell now because Hell (Grave) is the end of all sinners {Psalms 9:17} and since all humans have sinned and fallen short of God's glory {Romans 3:23} anyone dead in the past are all in Hell! Ecclesiastes 9:5-10

The one and only human who died was buried and returned from Hell is Jesus of Nazareth, he is now alive and forever will he continue to be alive! Act 2:31

Whoever wants to live forever after resurrection must seize the opportunity to make Jesus his/her role model {John 3:16} that is the one and only human approved from God to teach us how we can gain everlasting life! Matthew 17:5


Though Jesus never got married so what has Jesus got to do with this case as our role model? 1Peter 2:21

Jesus referred all his listeners to the standard God set in the beginning regarding marriage {Matthew 19:4} God's standard in the beginning is ONE Adam= ONE Eve! Genesis 2:24
[/Yes, you are right Jesus didn't married when he came to the world and in your own point of view that everyone that married more than a wife is a sinner?
Come think of it Abraham, Isaac, Esau, Solomon etc are sinners and they are in hell as you have said?]

Religion / Re: As Christians, What Does It Truly Mean By No Sex Before Marriage? by losak9111(m): 9:30am On Dec 18, 2022
ebubeson:
You may have heard "no sex before marriage" from various people, articles, media etc. You may have also heard people encouraging partners not to have sex until they marry. But the question is, what truly is "no sex before marriage?"

Does it mean not having sex with each other before marriage, but having sex with other people your are not dating till you do wedding with the person you are dating? Or does it mean total sexual abstinence from everyone until marriage? The later is correct.
