bibble was a compilation of man's work? and yet you guys call it the word of God, that means jesus didn't know anything about bible.

so bibble is just a history book or novel written by Romanians cos with this yr comment that what it means to me.

The Word of God means that it was given by God but recorded by humans. Different humans with cross-references, witnesses and corresponding stories.

Unlike Muslims who believe that one person in a cave in the middle of nowhere suddenly imbibed the entire word of God without anybody else seeing or hearing it smh

So where did he get it from How can you be sure its real when there are no witnesses?

Olamilekxy:
calm down Bro
Muslim only have two festival and all Muslim celebrate it all over the world.
and about mawlid, mawlid is not compulsory if you want to celebrate it you can celebrate it, and if you don't want to celebrate it you're good.

note= Muslim have two festival and all Muslim celebrate, that's, no Muslim go against it,unlike Christian that have one festival and yet some Christian go against

You are not serious

Mawlid is not banned yet some of your Muslims brothers insist that people who celebrate it are destined for Hellfire.

All Muslims celebrate Eid yet Sunni and Shia can never ever celebrate it on the same day so you are you deceiving here

Like I said, stop searching for relevance because nobody in the entirety of Christendom is interested in you people yet you keep pokenosing and provoking over nothing.

When this man's is sick he runs to America and Europe for medical treatment but will be deceiving his church members to shout die die die die everyday.

Very bad. I wonder why people cant see through these charlatans. Whats good for the goose must be good for the gander no?

zeeprince:
Bunch of confused miscreants.. when the deeper life and Jehovah's witnesses who outrightly condems ur celebration of Christmas we don't see smoke coming from ur heads but when a Muslim decides not to partake in it you all will be shouting religion tolerance like the Muslims are forcing you to stop doing it

Shutup! When Salafis and Wahhabists refuse to celebrate mawlid with you people nobody cares so stop searching for relevance where you can never dream to have any

I agree with the anti-party group, that adding anything to Islam is a bid’ah, and that it violates and compromises the sanctity of divine revelations. But there’s a caveat. We must not forget that rendering what is permitted as forbidden is just as bad as deeming what is forbidden as permitted.

We must be careful about how we define bid’ah. Why deprive Muslims the joy of celebrating the birth of Prophet Muhammad when we accept so many other things that are neither revealed in the Qu’ran nor introduced by Prophet Muhammad? Here is a short list to make my point. Isn’t celebrating the Saudi National Day (Sept. 23) bid’ah? Well, they might say, yes, but it is not associated with Islam. How about visas for Hajj, or Hajj fees? Isn’t that bid’ah? The Prophet and his companions never charged a Hajj fee.

Why pray 20 rakath in taraweeh? Rakath is a unit of prayer and taraweeh is the special night prayers in Ramadan. The defense that the second Caliph Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) deemed it bid’ah Hasanah — the beautiful innovation — complicates the matter further. Clearly this innovation is not leading to hell, since the Prophet himself attested that Caliph Umar was destined for heaven.

We are the same, the only difference is that I am a guy and you are a lady. And then again, the ones I was able to still sustain for a long time is because it is mostly long distance.

Lol do you know that I wanted to mention your monicker...shes sounding like your female counterpart

Buhari even freed inmates on Christmas day!!

Lol dont mind them sha! Maybe nobody gave them anything for Christmas smh!

Funkybabee:
Oh, hijab is about age

Yeah the hijab stuff is when developing/already developed female characteristics. A child must only wear it when she is praying.

Some parents start it early but its not actually necessary

Funkybabee:
And self why did her little kid open her hair, if only her mother can expose her beauty too

Shes not up to the age to start wearing Hijab

CSTR2:
lol
Muslims in those countries would kill for a chance to become citizens of Britain.

Why do you think the daughter of the king of UAE is always trying to escape to western civilisation?

And they have to use an app to track her even when shes trying to escape by sea smh! Poor girl!!

FemiMaduka:
Extremism is a big problem in the world. Mo'Salah was obviously enjoying the holidays but some extremist would rather read unnecessary meanings into a simple photograph. Does Salah not have millions of Christian fans all over the world? Would it be out of place if he regarded and congratulated them on a festival they hold dear? Does it mean he subscribes to Christmas?

The misguided extremists should please take it a notch higher and tell Salah to quit Liverpool because it's a majorly Christian club [in a Christian city and a Christian country].
Idiocy!

Exactly! Why didnt they tell him to increase the length of his football shorts in order to preserve his Hijab?A Muslim man shouldnt expose himself above the knee but they dont care about that side.

They dont care that he rakes in money from money taken from UNISLAMIC sources such as money accrued from interest and advertising for alcohol.

Na only Christmas tree dey vex dem smh rubbish

efembaba:
We know that there is the letter of scripture and there is the power and spirit of it. Any body, even atheists can read it for the sake of literature and that's what they will get out of it. Just literature--historical events, texts, biographies, chronologies etc. But another person can read it and get salvation, which is the spiritual value, out of it.. The bible was written over a period of hundreds of decades by people who didn't t even know one another yet talking about the same person i.e Jesus Christ whether in Prophecy or in events, his kenosis, life on earth death, resurrection and the significance of it. This is the Spirit and power of scripture and there is perfect agreement over this among all the writers of the bible. Every other detail including figures, historical events semantics etc are all subject to human limitations of the writers in terms of personal mastery of language vocabulary, detailing, perspectives etc and it's also subject to such factors as interpretations, tranlations and transliteration of literature, preservation of integrity of text, change in meaning and semantics of certain words in languages over the years etc

Please tell them. Somebody wrote 3 months, another person wrote 3 months and 10 days so that means the Bible is totally wrong smh

Anybody on his instagram should just keep shut because Egypt has a significant COPTIC CHRISTIAN population and people dont have issue with them so no need to start typing Arabic on somebodys page over nothing!

Iraqi Muslims rush to buy Christmas trees to take home and celebrate with their compatriot IRAQI CHRISTIANS every year

Syrian and Lebanese MUSLIMS love to celebrate Christmas with their fellow MARONITE Christians every year!

People should try not to act like illiterates! Mtchew!

Why do they send aid workers to dangerous places without adequate protection like they have nine lives?

Does anybody in this place have "adequate protection"?

If youre not a politicians child just remember that youre nobody. Thats my advice to you people on this blessed day of Saint Stephen smh

Jennifer takes the cover page..
Why are others not trending?
I'm telling you if you work in a news paper firm and you get these kind of report the best way to evaluate it is to ignite religious or tribal sentiment so as to rake more profit and that's exactly what seun and other outlets are doing, why are others victims not trending?

Exactly.

Even the way people are jumping on your comment is part of the strategy. This is what they were hoping for when they picked the "Jennifer" from the rest of them

More money for them.

Nowenuse:
Stop saying what you don't know. Hannatu is a name answered mostly by northern christians and not muslims.

He didnt say it wasnt answered by Northern Christians.

He said it wont be as sensational to journalists because it sounds and comes across as Islamic because of the Arabised Feminine ending "atu", which it does, especially to the unexposed masses.

Just like the Jennifer "Ukambong" Samuel resonates with people because it sounds like an Efik name even though she is actually from Plateau

This is a highly political issue and the more it sounds like a "Innocent Christian Southerner captured by evil Muslim Northerner", the more clicks it gets and the more newspapers it sells, regardless of what actually happened.

I pity for the guy... I can't imagine myself being with a girl that is forcing herself to be with me... It's better we break up than to experience such hell on earth...

Yes, some people are difficult to be with but that doesnt make them unloveable. It depends on how much effort they put into working on themselves and the relationship.

They need to discipline themselves so that they will not be at the mercy of their impulses. And think of the bigger picture and not just how theyre feeling right now.

I see potential in OP because she said that her conscience will not allow her to ghost the guy this time. All she needs is that small seed of conscience and she can develop it into something bigger that will be sustainable.

Thats if she's willing to do some emotional gymnastics. And let him in.

You'd better force yourself to stay put with the guy.

All the stuff youre writing there is malleable and not concrete.

You have to learn to expand your tolerance level gradually, according to your own level of comfort and what suits you

Dont throw yourself in completely or do things that make you uncomfortable just because "thats what normal people do"

For example some people need their man to call and check on them every day, how are you, have you eaten, what are you doing bla blah. otherwise they feel the guy doesnt care.

If you find being contacted every time annoying then you dont need to conform to that. You can explain to the dude that you only need to check in on each other once in a while

Take it at your own pace so that you wont start getting irritated because you feel suffocated, crowded, bored or caged.

And really search deep within yourself so that you will be able to express your needs to the man in a way that he will understand.

Michellekabod2:
. At best out of the blue I lose interest and become blank , not returning calls or replying messages, at worst I become disgusted at the fellow for no reason at all then move one to the next male friend.

This stuff suggests some kind of psychological barrier where you become fatigued easily, thinking, "....is this it? " which I suspect is due to becoming overwhelmed due to overexposure to the person too quickly and too fast. This can happen if youre a solitary kind of person who doesnt normally like intrusions into their emotional space as it makes them feel off-balance. And love itself is a giant intrusion!

So your mind quickly goes into isolation mode and pushes the person away completely...the same features that were initially attractive to you become meaningless, the same way a song that you love becomes boring after playing it hundreds of times

I suggest you think outside of the box to maintain the relationship without getting tired

And I also suggest that you dont mind those people telling you to forget him because this, as youve already stated, is a personal problem that you need to take responsibility for. How will you take responsibility for it if you dont confront it in action? You will still find the same issue with the next guy, and the next, until you change your mentality and approach.

So dumping this guy is not a solution rather you should do the best with what you have available to you, carry the guy along and keep moving towards what is workable for the two of you.

Not everybody is all about romance and lovey-dovey stuff, and thats totally okay as long as you accept it and work with it.

stonecoldcafe:
You guys have derailed this lady's thread.
This is not the thread for human rights violation. Why not open another one to debate that.
She is a professional working in the uae. We understand conditions are tough there, we know. But she is working a professional job over there and sharing her experience on how she got it. Allow her do that in peace. Let others who want to follow her steps in getting PROFESSIONAL work in the uae do so. Some people will take that over living in Nigeria even with the tough laws in the uae. Allow those few individuals learn in peace. Thank you

I don't think that's really accurate.

The topic is open for everybody to comment and debate on. I agree that it got derailed but those people still brought up important points that should be considered before one decides to migrate to the middle east. How is human rights irrelevant to the topic when we know that those countries have a reputation for racism and maltreating migrant workers?

That person you quoted in particular put their points across in a polite and respectful way for anybody who cared to read it so it was for the OP to respond to their enquiries and paint a bigger picture. Thats what these kinds of threads are all about.

The reason it got as crazy as it did was because the OPs updates came very sparingly when the thread had already reached front page with hundreds of people viewing.

If she had been available to post all the updates within a shorter timeframe the discussion would have gone differently.

It's naive to expect people to keep totally silent on a front page topic and when it comes to travel people will always be zealous in trying to weed out hearsay and misinformation from the facts.

sweetheart,merry xmas and a prosperous newyear.may all your wishes come true.i really like everything u post.u are such a darling.

Thank you for this kind wish, I really appreciate it and seasons greetings to you...please enjoy yourself

safarigirl:
The fact that some people are calling Flavor a bad parent because of this one time that he doesn't have pictures with Anna's daughter leaves me rather befuddled and confirms that people have no idea how co-parenting works. How come no one asked where Semah is? Or doesn't he spend as much time with Semah as he does with his other kids?

Thank you for this comment. The girl is probably with her mum somewhere or what if she's even there but didn't join them to swim?

It's not a must to force themselves into every photo just to prove a point. Even ordinary stepsisters don't always get to see regularly.

Flavour is an irresponsible guy imo but this thread is not an example of it. If they had the same mother and one kid wasn't there I don't think everybody would be asking this question.

Syria and the Northern kingdom where planning to kill King Ahaz and install somebody there as king, and King Ahaz was panicking so God sent Isaiah to him to assure him that their plan will fail.. God told him to ask for a sign, he said he would not.. So God went ahead and gave him the sign, a woman will give birth to a son, Isaiah was obviously pointing to the woman for king Ahaz to know, before the child knows to choose good and reject evil.. The two enemies will be defeated and destroyed..

If you read 1st King, that is exactly what happened.. Got it now?

Okay, thanks

sapientia:
Abeg.. Stop quoting me.

If you can't get it till now, you will never.

Hahahaha Jesus didnt even inherit the throne through Joseph because Josephs ancestry was cursed. It was Marys forefather who conferred the inheritance on him and not Joseph's.

So you have no point!

Jesus was still a direct descendant of David through his mother Mary. Both Mary and Joseph were descendants of David.

There are two records of lineage given for Jesus given in the Bible: Luke 3:23–38 is thought to belong to Mary and Matthew 1:1–17 is thought to be Joseph's (Mary's husband, but not Jesus’s dad). This speculation appears to be rooted in a prophecy in Jeremiah 22:30 & 36:30 that says that none of King Jehoiachin's descendents would be allowed to rule on the throne of David. Jehoiachin is called Jeconiah in the Matthew genealogy. He isn't in the Luke genealogy.

https://www.quora.com/If-Jesus-is-supposed-to-be-descended-from-King-David-how-does-it-work-since-hes-not-of-Josephs

Next, remember King David had more than one son. One of them was Nathan. None of Nathan's descendants had any "Jeconiah-like" curses. Mary was a descendant of Nathan (Luke 3:23 and verse 31—remember, as explained above, although the English text says “the son of Joseph, the son of Heli…” since the original Greek says Heli is the father-in-law of Joseph, logically, Heli is the biological father of Mary). Now, Jesus is completely safe from the problem of the Jeconiah curse, all while being from the line of David, and of the Tribe of Judah.

Smh

sapientia:
I stand on my statement.

There is never a way hundreds of people will fit into the criteria.

Jews have database.

You just stated that Joseph was from the line of David.

Was he the only descendant of David?

You stated that Mary was only selected because she was married to somebody from the line of David.

Was she the only one married to a descendant of David?

Mindfulness:
I didn't mean to upset you, sorry.

Thanks and it's okay, I'm not out to upset anybody either!

sapientia:
That's the order.

Joseph was not chosen because he was special but because he was from the tribe of David.

Mary was chosen simply because Joseph decided to marry her. If Joseph decided to marry Ruth or Martha or Deborah etc, the person would have still been chosen.

So you're saying that the role was inherited by virtue of satisfying that particular requirement at that moment in time but you still don't get it because there must have been literally hundreds of people who also filled those criteria, yet Mary and Joseph were still chosen out of all those who were eligible.

Mindfulness:
In other words, Jesus was born out of wedlock.

I don't understand the motivation behind your comments but if you think my knowledge is lacking somewhere you can go ahead and enlighten me. I don't mind being corrected if you can justify it with a reason.

Wherever your machinations are coming from is not my fault so if you're looking for holes in my comments it's your own problem.

Mindfulness:
So now you are even comparing thieves to people who didn't choose to keep their virginity till marriage?

@bold
For every person who discounts virginity a 100 people insult those people women who do not subscribe to the view that sex is dirty. And they believe they are riding the moral high horse. The joke is that Mary wasn't even married when she got pregnant. You believe she conceived the Holy Spirit but I believe she was just enjoying herself.

I am not comparing anybody. I am using them both as examples of where a commandment has clearly been broken to explain to you why emphasising the importance of chastity doesn't mean that you're condemning non-virgins or saying that they're bad people. Which they're definitely not!

Probably "thief" was too strong an example, I can accept that. But I wasn't comparing them.

I don't think it's right to insult those who don't subscribe to the view that sex isn't dirty either. But that's not what I'm seeing on the thread right now.

She wasn't married when she got pregnant because as I now understand it, the point was that a young maiden would conceive of the Holy Spirit and that implies that the person is unmarried.
