Nairaland GeneralRe: Lagos Belongs To Some Ethnic Groups..( The Yoruba's) Let Share Some Real Fact by MightySparrow: 8:21am On Sep 16, 2015
The custodian of hiStory, culture, and tradition of Lagos is Oba of Lagos. The city may have been affected by colonial masters local or foreign that does not mean it belongs to nobody.
One of the countries most affected in the world by all manners of colonialists is Israel, can Egypt, Iraq (Babylon), iran (Persia), Greece, Italy (Rome) lay claim of Israel?
As much as your concern is appreciated, the Lagoon is still available for any and all ungrateful immigrants to Lagos to reside permanently. Cheers

Should a God cry to another God for help?
Why not?

The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
John 10: 30 - 34

If I am a son of God, confirmed and recognised by God my father and fulfilling scriptural provisions, why not?

Christianity EtcJesus Is God by MightySparrow(op):
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. - 1 Timothy 3:16

So much have be written on this blog and many other fora but the Bible is written to testify about Jesus. He is the main theme of the Bible.

Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. - John 5:39

God has always wanted to relate with man rather live with man and this will eventually be


And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. - Revelation 21:3

One basic reason why Jesus cannot be any other person but God is based on the fundamental relationship that exists between God and man.

One of the many characterstics of a covenant is that you cannot enter into one by proxy. All the parties must be in attendance. This occured thrice.
1. Covenant between God and Abraham

And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: - Genesis 15: 17 - 18.

Covenant between God an Israel
And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words. - Exodus 24:8
Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink. - Exodus 24:11
And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. - Exodus 24: 8 -12

Covenant between God and the. Israel / World.

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: - Jeremiah 31:31

A prophecy fulfilled about 700 years later.
Jesus gather twelve Apostles together to pioneer a new generation of Covenant people and made a universal covenant with them:


For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. - Matthew 26:28

In Hebrews it is written that God had yo take the form of man to identify with HiS own:

For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. - Hebrews 2:16
He became a Son over His own house:

But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end. - Hebrews 3:6.

Again, the discourse between Jesus and the disciples in John 14 through 17 before going to the cross clearly shows that Jesus cannot be any other person than God.

I have noticed that Nairaland moderators derive joy pushing threads concerning an Igbo with drugs to the front page because it drives traffic for Nairaland. But they will never push the one concerning Yorubas.... They stereotype Igbos as drug dealers. But will never see the other millions working so hard to make a living.

But I know that the biggest number of internet fraudsters and yahoo boys in Nigeria are Yorubas. Even the biggest drug dealers in Nigeria are Yoruba top polticians.

Buruji Kashamu and Bola Tinubu quickly comes to mind.

carnegiefan:
@Bolded: Yes these are my thoughts. I simply articulated what Biafra should be that I can live with. Most importantly I demonstrated that these can never happen for us in Nigeria due to many issues. Imagine a nation of 98% literacy rate being ruled by another of 5% literacy rate. That is unacceptable bro.
Nigeria is systematically degrading and destroying the Biafran mindset and culture.
As late as about 20-30 years ago, children could walk around freely in Biafra land, moving from compound to neighors compound to play, hang out, even eat, without any fears. Today parents are holed up in their homes with their children. Everyone is afraid of his neighbor!
I will address this part of the issue more later when I have time.
Alright. I like your idea on your Biafra go on and mobilise your brethren to work towards actualization. Tell them also not to waste energy on their haters - real or perceived. They should channel their energy towards their dreams ONLY.
Good luck Biafra!

I was in the church last Sunday when our pastor preached a Message titled, Another Man, Another Life.
The summary of the message is: To get the best out of God promises, one has to be a different person from what he used to be and assume a new self, appreciating new values, doing things worthy of God to release blessings'
The OP's blueprint is his own idea, good though, but how many would. Be Biafra citizens are ready for this? What values have the Biafra people now appreciate that make them have problem in the now 'zoo' call Nigeria.
I read animal farm in high school. I hope your Biafra will not be the zoo while the remaining Nigeria will not be the habitation of normal human beings with its imperfections.

Lets not go into the nitty gritty differences and similarities between ''covenant'' and ''testament'' ... smiley
Please explain the differences between Covenant and Testament.
As for the thread, New Testament started from the Day Jesus had the last supper (Covenant ceremony) with His disciples. His death on the cross marked the end of the OT. We must understand that OT started with Abraham with Genesis 15 s a family and re - enacted with the nation of Israel in Exodus 24. Again on the day of Passover in Jesus time.
