Romance / Re: What Could Be The Cause Of A Boil Like This? by majorgr: 11:14pm On Mar 30
mamagee3:
What could cause a boil like this?

Infection, what is it?

The name is: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).
It's usually persistent, and heat could trigger it.
I'll encourage you to read this from the NHS UK about the condition: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/hidradenitis-suppurativa/

Aparently it happens mostly to women and it is not because of hygiene.
If you're in Nigeria the best bet for a very quick relief is to take Bitcham aplicox every six hours, it's the strongest antibiotics for situation like this with quick action. Unfortunately I learnt GSK the producers of the antibiotics left the country, although you can still get the medicine but it might cost tremendously more.

She no understand oyimbo culture πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ usually if they invite you for dinner or lunch they assume u dey come with your own bill and not necessarily say the brother weh she dey talk about they advance on her. They usually prefer to go out with you to eat and also to chat with you nothing romantic, so that they can connect and bound with you and get to know you especially if you're one way connected to them, for instance, work mate etc. Na one thin I notice here. So if she dey mistake am say the guy they scope her she is highly mistakenly. Here that's one way to get to know u and hear about your story, oyimbo like to hear about you. This one think say the boy wan toast her. 🀣🀣🀣Over entitlement mentality.

Like recently, I was discussing with a lady about a project and she invited me for coffee so we could chat more. Now, do I assume that she will pay for my cup of coffee? No! The moment I accept such an invitation, they assume I will be paying for my own cup of coffee. That's why a lot of Africans here don't get to bond with them, because we expect free things too much and also most African guys don't have what they call dick discipline. Because a white lady invited you or gave you a compliment doesn't mean she's into you, it's just a way to start a conversation so they can know who you are. Na so one Ghana boy almost land himself for trouble πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ oyimbo tell am say I like your clothe the next thing the dude Don go dey take style dey scope the babeπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚he nearly enter problem.

Religion / Re: I Committed A Sexual Sin. And I'm Too Scared And Ashamed To Pray. Please Advice. by majorgr: 9:39pm On Aug 05, 2023
Well there is one thing I've learnt from God, when you make a mistake, don't run from God, rather, that's the time you need to go close to him. Remember the devil is the accuser, he will accuse you of sin that is already under the blood. Remember what Jesus told the woman who committed adultery, "neither do I accuse you, go and sin no more". There's a purpose of failure, some times God allows us to fail so that we would come to the realisation that we need his grace to withstand the fiery trials and temptation we go through. We could easily slip to pride and boast among ourselves that it was our hard work and ability that kept us from sinning whereby it's the grace of God. Now you are one step less proud and have realised without God, you can't do anything.

A week now I've not said my night or morning prayers.
Has God left me? Can we still be close?

Health / Re: Physical Effects Of Eating Spaghetti by majorgr: 8:58pm On Jul 31, 2023
Oh sorry about that, that's allergy! You are allergic to pasta, hence the reaction. Some people have funny allergies, I know of someone who likes apple, but if he dares to eat the red apple his whole face swells up, similar reaction to yours, only the green apples gives him no reaction.

OndoRaph:
Whenever I eat pasta based products like spaghetti and macroni, my entire body seems to swell the next morning when I wake, especially my face, hands and legs. For the face, I even feel the weight of sudden chunky skin even without a reflection in the mirror. What could possibly be the explanation to this. Am I alone or any other person feels same?

This is not entirely true, I checked flight for last week and even checked today you can get economy for as low as 400k to London. Maybe the person was using an agent, though it also depends on time, like she say within two months, I was even checking for two months ahead and I was getting the cheapest at 400k naira. The thing is that if you want the fastest with very minimal lay over time then it would go up to 1m +. I wouldn't check directly from the airline if It were me.

OP you should know that there are special previleges attached to being a citizen and a passport bearer of a country. No country is under strict obligation to launch multi billion search operation for illegal migrants, but they are under strict obligation to serve and protect their citizens! Now look at this at this context, it's a lost to the country to lose tax payers especially on those who have provided jobs and a steady inflow of income to the country's economy. The second pic of the illegal immigrants on the other hand, while it's quite unfortunate on the demise and I sympathise with them, it becomes a very serious liability for any country to accommodate them. That's why I'm a big advocate for legal migration, there's nothing much from migrating illegally. If it was those days many people have made it who have migrated illegally but these days wit the rate at which companies are monitored by the government and everybody's data in captured, taking in undocumented workers may end the company losing their licence to operate and even a very heavy fine. That's why any country you go to, to look for job, they ask for all your legal documents to prove you're not in the country illegally. So migrants end of suffering and not being able to quickly get a normal job.

Religion / Re: Who Else Has Had This Experience? by majorgr: 9:16pm On May 26, 2023
ErnestNc:
So, something happened to me for the first time after a 12 hour prayer charge with Lawrence Oyor mid last year.

At the closing of the prayer program, i started sensing this feeling of something resting on my head like a cool liquid. But when I touched my head i found my hair/head dry.

I thought it was the AC, so being befuddled, I asked my friends and neighbors if they felt any cool liquid sensation on their heads too, but they all said NO. This experience lasted for 4hrs that day.

Since then , I occasionally feel this cool liquid sensation , sometimes during prayer or before prayer .

Today, something happened. I came back from work this evening and It was already my prayer time but I didn't feel like praying.

I turned off the alarm so I could escape the reminder . Then instantly there was conflict in my soul and a great urge to pray . I could recognise that urge anyday, it's the feeling I get anytime when I try to resist the urge to fulfill my once addictive habbits .

Immediately, I started feeling the cool liquid being poured on my head again and it's been more than 4hours now and I still feel it as I'm typing .

I prayed, prophesied , and even penned down inspired teachings and knowings I never learnt from anyone or heard before. It was like I had access to someone else's mind and I was feeding off their intelligence. I would ask a question and also get feed backs instantly with more insights and instant knowings. The thoughts and knowings were not mine or concocted by me.


It was an amazing experience and I know there are still more abilities to explore in subsequent experiences. I still feel this sensation right now. And I know it's spiritual.

Are there folks who have had such or similar experience here ? Maybe burning sensations, or tingling sensations during any spiritual activity ... If yes, Would you be keen to share yours?

Thanks!

Yes I have especially during my younger days in prayer, it feels so much like oil and when you attempt to touch it, there would absolutely be nothing there. It's spiritual and also the tangible anointing of the Holy Spirit. One day while praying for insight as to what it means the Lord told my heart while qouting scripture that says Thou anointed me with the oil of gladness! That's the oil of gladness friend! The bible says the joy of the lord is your strength... In the presence of the lord there is liberty joy and gladness. I want to also presume something about your life recently, you hardly get annoyed. That's one benefit you get spending time with Christ. Also, I advice never to seek any physical signs from God, enjoy it while it last but physically-tangible signs don't last. So you might as well work in faith and not on sight regardless feeling or not.

One thing people should understand is that the anointing deals with yieldedness! God will never force any body to flow with the anointing, it comes as a gentle nudge then if you yield to it, you might fall because it's like handing over your self to the Spirit and trusting him like a baby would to the parent. Rich people are usually too proud so God himself said that he resist the proud but gives grace to the humble. That's why most rich people, because they trust their wealth and status end up not getting any thing from God. Besides, God is not a respecter of people if you yield you get it, if you don't, God passes you by to the next person with faith in line. Also, you do not need to fall down or see any physical manifestation, you can just go right away and receive anything from God for example healing without any physical signs. We rely too much these days on signs and I want to caution on that because the devil would gladly accommodate people strongly seeking physical signs, the problem is that when that happens they will think it was God that gave them and become decieved. So it's better to be care full.

Religion / Re: Why Outward Appearance Is So Important For Christians by majorgr: 8:59pm On Apr 23, 2023
NuCypher:
Why christians care so much about their fitted shirts, ironed trousers and polished shoes will continue to amaze me? Take a look at the pastors. Some of them wear the most expensive items like wristwatches, chains, etc. You start to wonder if these people really represent Christ who preached more modest forms of expressions. In his day, kings dressed in glorious robes and golden attires, but Jesus himself (at least according the Bible) only wore what many commoners wore. Today, you see pastors dressed more or less like presidents and company CEOs. Most of them have left Jesus in the wake with their colorful and expensive attires, while their church members can barely afford three-square meals.

At a point, you start to wonder if we shouldn't all be scared of this pastors and their teachings. The same way Obedients view Babablu supporters as perpetrators of evil since they are colluding to bring to power a destructive element which doesn't have Nigeria's interests at heart, should we not start regarding these so-called Christians who spread the teachings of these evil pastors (e.g. COZA pastor, pastor jerrycurl chris, pastor witch-slapping oyedepo) as perpetrators of the greatest evils? I have to ask!

That's not true! Jesus sense of dress in his time was well put. Infact his clothes were so special that the roman soldiers had to gamble for it at his crucifixion. The bible also went further to describe the quality of the clothes he wore, a seamless clothes Woven without seam, that's a high quality expensive clothes too and not a commoner dress. Furthermore, to let us know how decent and organise he was, when he resurrected, the bible said he carefully folded the piece of linen clothing that covered his face, that's attention to details which I suppose a commoner would not have. Sometimes it worries me when I see movies depicting Christ with dirty, tartared clothes as if His father in heaven wasn't providing for him. Someone who has a treasurer in his days is not considered poor, the bible also said that a group of women ministered to him. I believe and I suspect that they were the ones in charge of his clothes to make sure his public appearance was well represented.

Celebrities / Re: Nigerian Man Serves His Dogs Noodles, Kebbies, Chicken (video) by majorgr: 10:06pm On Apr 09, 2023
Actually, the noodles he fed his dogs with are called crushed noodles, they are especially sold as dog foods and are cheaper alternative to the expensive dog foods you find in the market. Those days we use to buy a bag of crushed noodles to feed our dogs for like weeks. There are markets where you could get them, we buy it together with bone meal, or fish meal, they are really cheap and offer better nutritive value than the forieng expensive ones. I later learnt that the crushed noodles are gotten from indomie factories, the ones that didn't pass quality checks to be sold for human consumption hence to avoid waste they are sold as dog foods.

Religion / Re: I Love God But I Wouldn't Want To Live Close To A Church. by majorgr: 11:53pm On Mar 17, 2023
Even me too don't want to live close to a church in Nigeria. Some Churches tend to be lawless just like the country. In another country that's noise pollution and they could be legally prosecuted. The bible say love your neighbours as you love your self, if they really love those around them which may or may not be Christians, then they should noise proof their buildings to prevent disturbing others and go along with their services. Some of the things we do inferring we are pleasing God in the name of church services are just pure ignorance and God will definitely judge that too. Later if the government come for them that people are complaining about noise they will say they are being persecuted. I've been to other church services abroad and really I came to understand that God is not hard of hearing, meetings are usually organised in a cool, calm, recollective worship and preaching services and you'd see the evidence that truly God is in their midst. Infact one British man told me that one day he went to visit an African church the exuberance was so much, so much noise, dancing etc but you can hardly find God there...

I just laugh when people condemn courses like this. If you really want to travel the world, that's another gateway, the scholarships available for people who read related courses in the USA alone and other parts of the world are so enormous! I read similar course and I remember someone telling me I'm reading a useless course and today It has been a gateway to Asia, USA and UK. Make sure you graduate with a very high cgpa that's if you fancy academia and or research, you could then transition to doing your msc or PhD abroad full funding (there are tons of such for this course). Meanwhile, the medical science people are rushing to is highly competitive even to land scholarship, most funding bodies would not even fund it because its quite expensive to see a medical student through.

That is deception! He did the right thing by inviting the police. We have turned God to a begger and a theif, to my understanding that's bridge of trust and agreement. They had initially agreed to invest the money in a housing project both the wife and the husband, unbeknownst to the husband, the pastor had conived to deceive the woman to invest it in church which was not the original agreement. There is time for everything, they could both decide to sow if they want to but with the express permission of the person working hard for the money, the woman didn't work for it that's why she can dash it out without thinking of the consequences making the man doing all the hard work a fool. God was not involved in it 100%. Pure deception from desperate people using the name of God in vain.

Why My Target Is No Longer Heaven

It's because I'm now aiming for God's heart.

Though my initial target used to be heaven because the last thing I wanted to do, was to end up in hell.

But when I began to walk with God and got to know Him, I was like, what?

Are you kidding me?

Is this what I have been missing all this while?

To be honest, I wished I had gotten to know Him much much earlier, and if possible all through my whole life, because God is the best thing that I had ever known and the best thing that had ever happened to me, past, present and even future.

Nice post!
Heaven should in fact not even be the goal because the Bible says that Jesus returns with ALL his saints during the millenium reign. The earth wasn't created not to be inhabited as one verse said. As a matter of fact, we are even told that blessed are the meek for they SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH. If heaven was the original goal, why didn't we immediately go there when we became born again? It's time we begin to see that God placed us here on earth to advance the kingdom of heaven on earth. Thats why He made us kings and priests because in heaven we can't definitely be a king who do we rule over in heaven and who do we preist over there? Like the Bible said, heaven is my throne and earth my footstool...

Religion / Re: Christians Can You Explain This Photo Cos I'm Confused by majorgr: 11:45pm On Nov 26, 2022
Actually, where the confusion was coming from is from the interpretation of that verse. You see the Bible wasn't originally written in English language, especially the old testament which could be considered interpreted from either Hebrew or chaldean, and it was difficult to interpret these languages in the light of modern knowledge hence some translation do have it represented as that. But what It was meant to say was I allow evil or permit it but not created it. For instance in the old testament, God told the children of Israel that he would allow that very same thing they spoke with their mouth to happen because they were telling Moses that he brought them to the wilderness to die, and didn't believe that God had a better plan for them, hence God allowed the evil they had spoken to come to pass.

This was a man who made known to people the brief history of God's generals like smith smigglesworth,kathyrn kulman,alexander dowie,john wesley e.t.c and the pentecostal churches,orthodox,lutherean denominations through the grace of God in his life.but today i can't see the grace there any longer in him to preach the gospel.today he just a mere twitter fan who just wakes up in the morning and tweets buddies and make out funny pics and tag friends,go on vacation nothing more.he might still be preaching but ain't as relevant as when he still wrote God's general maybe i think his scandal in 2001 also contributed to his downfall you can check out on this link:
http://articles.latimes.com/2001/dec/22/local/me-17193.
Cause there is a wise saying that says "SCANDALS MAKES YOU LOOSE CREDIBILITY"
You can check out some of his face book uploads to see what am saying hardly do you see gospel message about christ but all what he does now his to repackage his already sold God's general in a way whereby kids now have God's generals kids version why because he has nothing to offer again even if you check his channels he preaches the things he has written in his books long ago you can check out his channel on youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/user/robertsliardonmin/videos
All what you see are God's general still being talked about only different from the first location he preached it and some of his other books the same thing he preaches i mean verbatim.its more like he goes back to read his previously written books in other to know what to preach.if i may ask is it that God has stopped giving him new revelations or what?cause by what he updates in his page shows that he is far away cause even preachers like benny hinn,oyedepo,umai upkai,olukoya,adeboye evn some american word of faith preachers don't update such pics on their pages like what i mean is that the roberts liardon of today is a joke.check this out

I see nothing wrong with him, he's human just like any of us and is allowed to relax! The problem with us is that we take man as our standard and have high expectations of them, instead of using Jesus as our main standard. Even the cartoons he shares are not lewd just normal simple friendly cartoons. I feel he has done so much for obeying God in writing the God's general and we are to pick up the mantle from there. Who knows wether according to God he must have completed his ministry since back, any other thing are just bonus because he choose to stay back and not go to be with the Lord. He's works will definitely follow him.
