Let me share my trio-coincidence first..with what I will call mere rumors of the masses ![]() It was on a rainy wednesday I walked into a barbing saloon to cut my hair after a long stressful day at school, not long that I arrived in the saloon, one of the barbers and a customer started discussing politics in their dialect which I immediately recognised to be Igala language..soon! they began talking about Governorship in Kogi state and after was, why the Ebira people have not ruled or will not rule the state even in the near future. And as usual they discussed dating with Ebira ladies which they termed to be fierce if you dare break their heart but also admitted about their astonishing beauty. On the second day being Thursday, I was in my departmental GIS lab, when I jokingly said something and my igbo friend asked others in anticipation on my state of origin..like "where am I from again?" soon as he got the answer he was hoping for that am from Kogi state an Ebira boy..the whole room flair into loud shout and we had a little argument about the Ebira people again and some guys around shared their stories about Ebira people and also about Ebira girls and why you should never mess with them. On the third day, being Friday which happens to be today August 14th, two of my lecturers and some of my few female friends which one of them happens to be an Ebira chick too got talking and one of them discovers us to be Ebira, then they started sharing their past experience and encounter with Ebira people plus how they are scared of passing through Okene town when they travel..hehehe! This inspired me to open this thread specially to get everyone reading this to pour out their heart and experience too..lol! But first Ebira Tao as they are called are the largest group of Ebira people. They hail from the North central part of Nigeria. The Ebira, through oral tradition, trace their descent to Wukari (in the present Taraba state) where they were a constituent part of the Kwararafa confederation. In about 1680 AD, they (along with the Idoma and Igala) migrated out of Wukari a chieftaincy dispute and to their present location in the country today. But without delving much into the history of the Ebira people, I will like us to focus on the behavioural constituent of these so much controversial and lovely people..lol! The name EBIRA simply means "Good Character". But I have noticed countless of time some which I could recall and some which I can barely draw back to the great misconception on behavioural characteristics of Ebira people and to some great extent criticism on their girls( i.e Ebira ladies) being too fierce in their actions in the area that got to do with the heart. Others go to the point of acknowledging them as a set of wicked and harsh set of people..Hehehe! I have heard countless of cases from different ethnic groups as well about either their sordid/terrible or wonderful and terrific encounter with these people. But could these be just crowd mentality and over exaggeration or perhaps! The tales told by the majority of other ethnic groups about the Ebira people are more than speculations. However the case may be, I will like us to conduct a general research survey from the romancelanders since this will have to deal with emotional reaction and experience from one or two persons here, on why there have been numerous criticism on the Ebira's and their fierce and fearsome (F&F) way of life..could it be that there is more to this people than meet the eye? Share your experience and what you feel about them, if you have any please! may be relationship, friendship or any interaction you've had by chance with an Ebira person in the past. ![]() Maamin |

Anyway @Op keep it up, do your time, live life, and always be smart (academically I mean) all the best in your exam! |
Na today? |
Teekrayne:Allah is an arabic word for God not a name. Notify me when you find this name of your God. Thank you! |
Teekrayne:You can do better than that, in hebrew 'God' is 'Elohim' in Arabic Elohim is 'Allah' in English 'Allah' is 'God'..simply title for referring to supreme beings in different languages right? E.g You are a 'Human being' and there are several other Humans, but how do we identify you alone? Then we call you by your name 'Teekrayne' Apply that example in the God analogy. So for the very last time what is the name of your own God? |
Teekrayne:That verse still did not render Yahshua ha'mashiakh ben Elohim (Jesus the Messiah Son of God) fatherless does it? Your housemaid/househelp is still someone's daughter/son/child, if you decide to send your son in place of your servants on a confidential errand it still does not make your son anything other than your son even as he assume a place of servant/messenger. Without much ado, these verses are from the same book you quoted up there Matt. 3:17 "17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." Matt. 17:5 "5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him." |
Teekrayne:And the bible also called this Angels sons of God (benei elohim). And even called satan the god of this age. Is now left for you to ask yourself what type or class or rank of a God is Satan..there are many Gods/gods whichever you chose, but there is one creator of all..it is him who we must worship and serve. And it doesnt matter whether you use small 'g' or capital letter 'G' the point is that all Gods have a specific name and the one true GOD as well, we call him "Yahweh"...what is the name of your own GOD? |
ezebrain:Awww..! Did those verses sting you? Remember if it were supposed to be LOGIC I wont bother quoting the bible in the first place. Chew on this again till you become smartbrain. 2 Cor. 4:1-6 "1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; 2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. 3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus 'sake. 6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." *Yawns and exit thread* |
Lol..! Jewish terrorist indeed, but I will still wine and dine with a Jew anytime any day than a Palestinian. Not that I support evil tho! but come on! I mean one misguided Jew cant be used to judge the entire israelite...who are not even the pioneers of Hamas, Al-qaeda, Al shabab , ISIS, Talibans, Hizbollah, and our overgrown homemade local tyrants Bokoharam! Isshhhhh! Saying those names makes me shiver! *excuse me I need a hot lipton* |
Anas09:I differ here with you sir!...in what sense of reverence do you define the term 'God' or 'god' or 'a god' ? remember there are no upper case or lower case in the original Hebrew language from which the word 'ELOHIM' was translated. |
Jozzy4:So what part of the Bible in all it entirety, have you been puzzled with in this thread? |
1 Cor. 1:18-19 "18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. The Bible coming true everyday right? ![]() Op relax! ![]() |
