Doolove:
Some time ago my boyfriend brought my matter here because I went to visit a male friend and I was called all sorts of derogatory names without anyone hearing my side of the story.

We met early last year, he was just out of school without a job but I still accepted him regardless. I had a stubborn ex that wouldn't go away so he was taking care of my bills while I was dating my new boyfriend which he was well aware of. I later had an issue with the ex that led to him calling the police on me accusing me of stealing the iPhone 7 that he bought for me while insisting that I return it or he would take the matter to his village and make sure I run mad. I stood my ground amid all the threats held on to the phone.

Coincidentally, things picked up for my guy when the ex left, he started getting lots of freelance gigs online so I didn't feel the absence of the old guy. My boyfriend made sure I didn't lack anything even without me asking. I had to break up with him once because I felt he was doing too much and I might be running him down. He laughed it off and gave me screenshots of some of his account balance.

Fast forward to this year and things went south again, The gigs stopped coming in, and some of the firms he worked for closed shop so he was surviving on his savings which were depleting very quickly. It's worthy to note that before now the major issue that I have had with him is the way he sees my relationships with other men. He practically doesn't want me to have male friends or even go on harmless sitouts with friends. He thinks it's a disrespect to him for me to have anything to do with other guys while I am in his place.

This has resulted in serious fights each I come back from seeing a friend, At times he gets so mad that he flings my things outside to go stay with whoever I went to see.

Meanwhile, things have been very tough for him recently to the extent that feeding has become difficult. He quickly invested in a farm with with a friend when his savings were going down and used the remaining money to startup a blog. Now it's looking as if the guy he's doing the farm business with has scammed him because it's been from one story to the other and he's so broke right now that he can't even afford data to write content for his blog which we all know blogging is even saturated and takes time to start paying.

I started work two weeks ago and I have been the one taking care of my transport fare, he only gives me 1k once in a while to support. It's this same men he doesn't want me to communicate with that has been helping me out all this while. He sits at home all day waiting for the proceeds of the farm so he can start mini importation of wigs.

Every guy that asks me out seems to be well to do than my guy and it really bothers me. They all have nice cares and ready to spend while my own guy now depends on begging to feed. Even though he's smart and all but I don't know where the break through will come from and it seems I am wasting my time with him.

On Monday was my off day and I was at home, I woke up with a mood swing so I wasn't talking to him. He was busy cleaning the house without mentioning breakfast so I had to call someone to come get breakfast for me. He got mad at me tagging it an insult to him. It caused issues and I left the house and dared him to do his worst and he asked me not to leave because I needed some positive vibes since he was boring me with his attitude. I actually went to my family house but he feels I always go to see a guy each time I leave the house.

I came back around 8pm to meet the house locked and he kept ignoring my calls knowing fully well that I didn't leave with my key and I wasn't feeling fine and needed to take my drugs. I got drenched by the rain and my sickness go worst. He came back home by 11pm that night.

Now I haven't been able to go to work for the past three days and he's been running around buying drugs and food on credit so I can get well when he caused it. On the other hand a guy that has been giving me stuffs asked me to take a break from work and rest and he will give me my full salary.

I am just confused, it seems I am leaving better things out there for a broke guy and it's bothering me. What do you guys think I should do

Please ignore any typos, I wrote in a hurry

You're not married but cohabiting. That's really a major issue.
You're both not following both moral and divine order.

If you really love him, both of you should repent and decide to follow divine and moral order.
You both need to leave the relationship and learn to be complete without depending on each other.
Then you will simply complement the person you;re meant to marry.

Throwback:
He was arrested and that means what?

Is it a crime to be arrested in USA or Nigeria?

Even Donald Trump was arrested.

Peter Obi was detained in UK, and Hundeyin was detained in ordinary Zimbabwe where he begged online for his freedom like a humble baby.

So you have now shown the whole world that the fellow actually does exist and lives in Chicago, and his age of 69 is close to Tinubu's age of 71.

Internet journalist in the mud.

Maybe Hundeyin should learn from you on how to investigate the existence of a human being.

He did the work for Tinubu and didn't even get paid for it!
Wisdom no go kee you oh.

Doremii:
If the name on someone ssce certificate is Tope Adam Folorunsho and his bsc and birth certificate is Folorunsho Tope Adam, is there a problem or the person can use the ssce like that ?

Will the person be denied a job? If so, what can the person do?

Have you considered lodging a complaint to WAEC as a body? Either via email or their official social media accounts.
Some of thiese bodies are now under new management that are quite proactive.
See if you can do that instead of re-writing the exam which might raise red flags.

An affidavit too should suffice as someone suggested.

FitCorper:
This Yoruba language is becoming globally recognized and power gradually. God really blessed yorubaland with Jagaban. With the current team leading Nigeria at the helm each time I think of the future, I just get excited and I pray God should protect Tinubu/Shettima to actual use their vision for Nigeria. Nigeria will be great again.

Amen.
Aptly said. I couldn't have said this better.

AmandaPrecious:
Yawn. This is starting to get real boring.

I haven't failed to notice that you want to address everything else but the main topic of discussion -- a clear symptom of your cognitive incompetence. If I were you, I'd pack it in and call it a day at this point. Preaching to someone like me will likely be an exercise in frustration and/or futility for you, unless you are a glutton for punishment with sadomasochistic tendencies. I work with facts, not sentiments or frivolous appeals to emotions.

But I have in fact addressed the topic of discussion.
I even went as far as recapping and highlighting my points.

What will you have me address?

1. Concerning this thread - My position remains that the pain and NDE of both Natural birth and CS (especially in Nigeria) instills a sense of responsibility, care and legacy in a woman. Where child-birth is painless whether via natural birth or CS, the mother MAY NOT understand the significance and essence of motherhood and by inference not be as caring as one who does.
-Your position is that it does not matter as several factor contribute to a mother's attitude towards her child.
You simply do not want to agree that Mode of Birth is one of these factors, Capish?

2.. Whether I have ever considered if my god does not exist. This I have done even as a kid. I ended up becoming an agnostic, then atheist for some years. Till I got to the point where I needed God due to life's challenges. Then I found Him for myself and became born again. Then I backslid yet again due to life's challenges. I never thought I could ever backslide but to my surprise I did. All my efforts not to backslide failed and all my efforts to seek him like wise were to futility for years. Until His Grace found me yet again when I became desperate and had a NDE. That happened last year. And today, I am truly grateful to be a disciple of Christ. It is important to be able to separate the religion Christianity from the actual relationship of following Christ.

I hope this helps?
For some reason that I don't know, I seem to be pretty interested in you. And not in a provocative way.
Guess the sapio-sexual in me still needs some divine touch or torch.lol

Shelter100:
Marriage rites in Nigeria look too expensive compared to our Ghanaian tribes.

Nigeria comprises of a myriad of tribes.
This list is peculiar to the Igbo and certain South South tribes and specifically to certain states among them.
So many other tribes don't do this.

2Cor.5.18-21 - Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

MaxInDHouse:
This is your own PERSONAL opinion because no Bible version explicitly say Lucifer is an Archangel.
The one and only Archangel in the Bible is Michael.
Thanks!

Your opinion is noted.

MaxInDHouse:
You're welcome my friend just remember that if you're not one of Jehovah's Witnesses you're not a worshiper of the same God Maximus worship!

Concerning your question.

An arch angel is one of the powerful/principal angels of God.
The verse Isaiah 14:13-14 describes Lucifer as exactly that. Though it does not use the term because he is now the devil. Even archangel Michael respected his office.

Jude.1.9 - Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"

MaxInDHouse:
Please tell me the version that says Lucifer is an Archangel.
Thanks in advance.

Our discussion might derail this thread.
I'll address that on the other thread.

Romans 10:9-10
That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth;

Jesus Christ, I believe in you.
I believe you are the Son of God, and you came to earth and you lived with men doing wonders.
I believe that you were tortured, crucified and died for my sins and on the third day you rose from death and you were seen by your disciples.
I believe you are alive and you now live inside me through the Holy Spirit.
Thank you Jesus for saving me.
I confess you and I submit to you as my LORD and Savior.
Amen.

Hallelujah!
There is so much rejoicing in heaven right now because you have been saved from darkness and into the everlasting Light of Christ.
You are now a child of God.

He will begin to lead you.
He will lead you through His Holy Spirit and His Word.

Pray and you will be led to a church He has prepared for you. Don't waste time at all, there's so much Our heavenly Father wants to show you.
There's so much He want to reveal to you
I am super excited for you. You are saved in the best time to be saved.

2Cor.5.16 - Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.

2Cor.5.17 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

Please share your comments and testimonies in the comment.
Today is such a Good Day, because The Word Of God Says So.
God is Good All The Time.
And All The Time, God is Good!

John.3.1 - There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
John.3.2 - This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him."

John.3.3 - Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."

John.3.4 - Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"

John.3.5 - Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
John.3.6 - That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
John.3.7 - Do not marvel that I said to you, "You must be born again.'
John.3.8 - The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

John.3.9 - Nicodemus answered and said to Him, "How can these things be?"

John.3.10 - Jesus answered and said to him, "Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things?

John.3.11 - Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness.
John.3.12 - If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
John.3.13 - No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.
John.3.14 - And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, -
John.3.15 - that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.

John.3.16 - For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. -- null
John.3.17 - For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

The Kingdom of heaven is not for casual people to find. It demands/requires desperation.
You have to be tired of the way things are.
You have to be frustrated to desire to find a solution.
You have to desperately need God.
Because like Esau, man did not value Godliness and lost it to the Satan simply for lust of the eye, lust of the flesh and pride of life.

Now until we know the value of what we lost and the foolishness of what we traded it for, we cannot find it.

Matt.11.11 - "Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

Matt.11.12 - And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.

The kingdom of God is here now.
John.4.23 - But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
John.4.24 - God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

After Jesus Christ fulfilled his Mission/Purpose/Calling and was crucified, died and buried. He rose on the third day and Restored the Glory of God to Man and gave man both the Authority to reign both on Earth and in Heaven through Him- to as many as believe in His name.

Matt.28.18 - And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

Are you sincerely tired and frustrated of the way life as you know it is?
Are you fed up?
Have you exhausted your options?
Are you ready to sincerely and diligently seek God and to Know Him?
Are you ready to be faithful?
What did you travel your godliness for?
What have you gotten in exchange for your soul?
Was it worth it?

Do you now want your soul to be made alive again?
Do you want to have a relationship with your Creator and Heavenly Father?
Do you want to receive and be filled with the Holy Spirit?
Are you ready to accept Jesus Christ ad your LORD and Saviour?
Are you ready to repent of your sins and walk in God's righteousness?

Here is what you MUST do.

Jesus Christ describes the Kingdom of God in various parables.

Parables are the representation of spiritual realities with physical illustrations.
Matthew 13 gives various parables where Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ gives us indepth representations and explanations of the Kingdom of God.
I pray God in His Everlasting Mercy grants understanding to our simple and willing minds in Jesus name.
For it is the entrance of His Words that gives Light/Understanding.

Luke.17.20-21 Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, "See here!' or "See there!' For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you."

Rom.14.17 - for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

In the appointed Time. In the fullness of Time, God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ to die for the sins of Man.
That through His own Complete Obedience, the seed of ungodliness- disobedience, self and death which man inherited from Satan would be taken away. And the Seed of Godliness will once again reign in man.

Rom.5.17 - For if by the one man's offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)

Jesus Christ is the Seed that was promised to Eve in the Garden of Eden.

Matt.1.21 - And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins."
Matt.1.22 - So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:
Matt.1.23 - "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us."

Jesus Christ fulfilled all the prophecies concerning the Messiah as required by the Law and Prpphets.
Moses and Elijah confirmed this on the Mount of Transfiguration.

It is instructive that Jesus Christ knew His Mission on Earth as a child and as a man.

Luke.2.48 - So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, "Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously."
Luke.2.49 - And He said to them, "Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father's business?"

John.4.34 - Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.

After he was baptised by John the baptist as required and He received the Holy Spirit, He was driven to the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
And when he passed the tests and temptations Satan, he rebuked him and began His ministry- His Father's work/business.

Matt.4.1 - Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

Matt.4.17 - From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

MaxInDHouse:
Please where in the scriptures did you found the highlighted?

The Scriptures is below it and more will be shared. Kindly exercise patience.

Adam and Eve desperately longed for the Seed as God promised will be their salvation from their death.

Satan also was fearfully waiting for that seed and immediately murdered any sign of godliness in a seed.
He murdered Abel after his sacrifice made God to respect him. Through Cain his brother, Satan murdered him. Cain therefore inherited the curse of becoming a wanderer across the world.
Then Seth was born. However sin multiplied instead of Godliness.

The Lineage of Seth would eventually lead to Noah.
God destroys the world because evil had continued to multiply beyond control but preserves the family of Noah because of his covenant and Plan.

Noah still carrying the seed of sin inside him also multiplied sin and ungodliness.
However Abraham would find favor before God. God calls him out of his pagan family.

Gen.12.1 - Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you.
Gen.12.2 - I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.
Gen.12.3 - I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."

God makes an everlasting promise with Abraham because He believed Him and did the unthinkable.
He trusted God enough to willingly sacrifice his only beloved son- Isaac and for this God sealed his covenant to make him the Father of Many Nations, that through Him all the nations of the earth will be blessed.

Gen.17.5 - No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations.
Gen.17.6 - I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you.
Gen.17.7 - And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you.

Isaac and Rebekah would give birth to twins- Esau and Jacob.
Jacob would inherit the blessing of the covenant God makes with Abraham because he value it more than Esau.
Esau value the physical needs over his spiritual blessing. This is instructive. This is what it means to be carnally-minded.

Through Jacob's encounter with God, His lineage becomes the chosen nation of Israel/Jews.
Hence the saying- salvation belongs to the Jews.

Various seeds would arise from time to time to fulfill the promise of God but the serpent will always prevail over them because he owned them. He was the ruler and king of this domain and realm. They would eventually be sin- disobey God and die.
Prophecies upon prophecies spoken of the Messiah that would eventually save Israel.

Isa.9.6-7 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

Ezek.36.25 - Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.
Ezek.36.26 - I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
Ezek.36.27 - I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.

Joel.2.28-30 "And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions.
And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.
"And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: Blood and fire and pillars of smoke.

With this singular act of Disobedience, Mankind died as God warned.
Death here is a state of ungodliness. It is a spiritual death.

.It is disconnection from God. Adam and Eve were also physically banished from the Garden of Eden. Just as Satan was banished from Heaven. It is the pattern.

But God created the Heavens and the Earth for a Purpose. And He created Man for a Purpose.
And that Purpose MUST be fulfilled regardless of how long it takes. His Word is Settled Forever in Heaven only waits to manifest on Earth.

For this Cause even in the midst of Man's disobedience and death God had pronounced His Salvation plan.

Gen.3.15 - And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel."

God had placed the Salvation of Mankind inside the womb of the woman.

It is instructive to note also that Adam originally named his wife Woman before their death.
But renamed her Eve after their death.
Ironically Eve means life or life-giving or mother of life.

Adam had lost his connection from God and now calls things the opposite of what they are.
This is why the confession of our Faith is seeing life through the Word of God and not our Sight.

Romans 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Satan had been banished to earth for His Selfish Ambition and Rebellion.
He was the Arch Angel Lucifer, he had wanted to be like God and to be King of the heavens outside, God's will.

Isa.14.12-14 "How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!
Isa.14.13 - For you have said in your heart: "I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north;
Isa.14.14 - I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.'

He has been reduced from Arch Angel to a mere serpent living on past and lost glory. Hating any one who tries to be like God- who tries to rise where he failed. Fighting against Godliness with every thing he has.

He deceived Adam and Eve whom God already created with Godliness- the Glory of God by causing them to do the one thing God had instructed them not to do.
He knew the tree of knowledge of good and evil would create the virus of evil in man because man and every thing God created was Good.
He deceived Eve that the tree would make her to become like God- when she was already like God.

This is instructive.
Adam and Eve were like God and Knew No Evil.
Evil came into Man through the Serpent. It is The State of Being Self-Centered, Disobedient and Rebellious towards God.

Gen.3.4 - Then the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die.
Gen.3.5 - For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
Gen.3.6 - So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.
Gen.3.7 - Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

2 Corinthians 3:17-18
Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Ps.119.73 - Your hands have made me and fashioned me; Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.

It is with a great burden and sense of responsibility and humility and fear of God's manifest presence and glory that I speak on this topic.

This is a topic way beyond my capacity, way above my learning, way above my human and spiritual faculties.
I trust God in His Mercy and for the sake of His glory and his mercy on creation that we have found favor in His sight.

This much I know that when the Holy Spirit grants Utterenace, even the Minister is but a learner and simply a vessel for divine encounter and transmission of Godliness.

What is the Kingdom Of God?
A Kingdom is a domain and realm of reign and Authority of a King.
God is the name ascribed to a divine being.

The Kingdom of God is the domain of reign of The Divine King.

Gen.1.1 - In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

He created every thing in it.
Then created Man to have dominion over all that is on the earth.

This man he created to become his Physical expression- in His image and according to His Likeness.
He made Man King over the Earth. Adam named every thing on earth and it was Exactly what was on God's Mind.
Adam was at Oneness with God so much so that His Mind was in Sync with God.

Adam means Man/Humanity. It is also the name of the first man.
Eve means life giver. It is also the name of the first woman.

God gives man the Instructions to govern the earth together- Adam and his Woman.

Gen 1.28 - Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."
God did not give Adam dominion over the heavens but the earth.

Ps.115.16 - The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's; But the earth He has given to the children of men.

Satan, also called the Serpent having been banished from heaven, brings a great wrath against Adam (Humanity).

Rev.12.12 - Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time."

Everything he wanted to become, God had freely given Man simply because God decided and willed it so- He is the King of all kings.

God had also given man a strict instruction not to disobey.

Gen.2.16 -17 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."

Matthew 6.33
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Heavenly Father we invite you to help us, teach us, lead us, speak to us, guide us, touch us and transform us by the Power of Your Presence and Glory in Jesus name.
Holy Spirit, have your way, speak expressly and move mightily in this place.

Grant your ministers Utterance.
Open the Eyes of Understanding of all who diligently seek you and those who come to learn of you.

Show Yourself merciful to whom you will be merciful and compassionate to whom you will be compassionate.

Heal us and do the Miraculous according to your Will and Pleasure in this place.
Supply our Needs according to your riches in Glory by Christ Jesus.

For this is a Faithful thing, that where two or three are gathered in your name, you are present in our midst.
And if two of us shall agree on a thing it will be done.
Thank you Heavenly Father for I know you have heard our heart cry and you have answered our prayers.
This is for your Glory and Praise. That your testimonies will fill our lips and our lives will be for your glory in the Mighty and Matchless name of Jesus Christ our LORD and Savior.

Amen.

This is hilarious. Even if it's just for comic relief. It's truly true.
I told my obidient colleagues long ago that come next election virtually all of them will vote for Tinubu's re-election.
I was not guessing.
The KPIs will speak for themselves and everyone will know that this can only be God.

We ain't seen nothing yet!

Give him time? I can still remember folks saying that during buhari's tenure. Well, time will tell.

What other choice do you have though?
You want to fight them? Can you?

Greedy folks will never be contented with their gadgets, look deep, you'll discover it's the same device but in a new body.

And companies like Samsung & Apple exploit your addiction to level up by rolling out new models every year.

Ye aptly calls it Classism.
It feeds on Lust and Pride of life.

AmandaPrecious:
Good to know.



Where have I done this? Lying again, are you?



People like you spend so much time playing the role of Tone Police than actually engaging the arguments. If you can't stand the heat, then get out of the damn kitchen. I'm not going to water down my style to suit your insignificant feelz.



You really need to grow some balls and learn that nobody is mandated to pamper you on the internet. If you think you're obligated to post unfounded rubbish on this site in the pretense it's an argument just because you can, then I'm obligated to give said rubbish the treatment it deserves. Bad ideas exist to be destroyed. So put on your big boy pants and realize that I couldn't care less what you feel about me.

I wish you knew me before Christ found me.
You'll understand why I can't be offended by your little insults.
When I insult someone, they actually cry or want to cry- both male and female.
I've lost so many relationships cos of that.

Any way, the only reason why I keep engaging you is cos you remind me so much of me. And your name actually says a lot-

Amanda- worthy of love.
Chimamanda- my God will never fail.

Which ever one it is- God really is the one who can reveal who you are to you. Your present revelation of who you are is little compared to who he will make out of you.

If I may ask, why did you stop believing in God?
Cos your high IQ is actually usually a gift God gives either cos your parents served God or you once did.

Amen. And to you as well.

You can scavenge through my topics to see if anything there sounds useful.

Sure will. Will take my time to carefully feed and ruminate on them. Feel free to do the same.

It's not a matter of daughter.

Point is due diligence can still fail. You can't know 100% about an individual.

Why this may be right, OP did not even bother.

Good evening fellow NL members,
My story may be long but pls endeavor to read to the end so that you can make proper suggestions or advice.

I have been married for more than 10yrs now with beautiful kids, my marriage is one that many Young guy will wish to have, but along the the line I don't know what happened things begin to nose dive. In the last 6yrs I discovered that I struggle to make love to my wife, she will either tell you ohh, she is tire or she don't like sex much..this I have endured for all this years with no cheating.
Her qualities are
She can cook
She can keep the house clean
She can manage resources
And she is accommodating to my people
In all this years I have never cheated on her, proudly saying it coz my dad warned me of cheating on my wife rather I should divorce her and go for another wife.

My qualities are
I work and earn like about 700k net a month.
I give feeding allowance and personal total of 100k a month while I invest the rest on a project which she is aware of.
I don't drink or smoke
I don't keep late night
and I am the best friend to her and my kids.
Honestly having talk to her for over 5yrs on this issues of love making and she refused to change, then I have decided to yield to my dad advice and ask her to leave...she is not aware of this plan, but trust me it will hit her.
I allow her to do little job to have her own finance is not as if she contribute anything in the house, but she is claiming stubborn, I love her so much, it will hurt me to cheat on her, something I have not done since I got married to her.
I plan moving to a new place in February, and she doesn't fit into my plans.

My decision between now and December is
1 Avoid asking her for lobe making
2 Continue taking care of her so she won't suspect anything
3 when she comes close I avoid her.
4 February I issues divorce papers and give her like 1m to go get her life back

Is there anything more I can do for her?
Advice me pls...

Wow. Thanks for sharing this.
Your dad was a very wise man. What an elder sees scooting down, a child/youth may not see even climbing a treetop.

Cheating on a spouse- adultery or fornication is a deal-breaker and it comes with a lot of consequences.
You wife may actually be psychologically or emotionally drained by some issues. You should try to address that primarily.
Cos women truly love sex especially when they enjoy it with their partner.

Don't be proud to ask her if there's any complaints concerning your sex life, if you still indeed want to keep your marriage and I hope you do.

Ultimately, I perceive you're not so religious/spiritual.
Kindly make God your priority and Christ the Head of your home. Every thing else works practically starts to work itself out because God will be in control. And a lot can change in 3 months. God help you because you're a good man, a rare type in this generation.

I have just been informed by neighbours from my house in my home town that my tenant was burnt to death by people in the environment. They almost burnt my house too but for some interventions. They ransacked the entire house, burn any item they could find, cutting down trees and pulling down doors.

He was accused of stealing and selling children. Four children have been reported missing. He confirmed it, only that they can not be recovered. That was before they meted jungle justice on him. He was survived by a wife and four children. The family are in police custody now. All his properties brought out and set on fire.
As I write, I am in shock right now. I can't travel there. All the while this devil told me he deals with Rice and other food items. He usually comes to Abuja to sell his items, asking to visit my house but for some reason I refused to let him. I have never him physically though. I thought he was a good man, how that he helped secure the property. It was after his death yesterday, I got to find out that he rented other rooms to some students and was collecting rent. Unfortunately, the properties of these students were burnt too. Not my problem.

I have contacted a property lawyer, and sent him there. He confirmed the incident, but asked me to sell the entire property.

Is that the right call? Seeing that the people see the house as bad omen now.
Please what do I do? Am I going to be implicated? I don't know the devil.

How do you release your property without due diligence of who occupies it?
Even if you contracted it out to property agents, that property agency must be

You should ask for forgiveness other wise the blood of those children can be on your head crying for justice because it is on your property.

MatrixReloaded:
All this self acclaimed pastors that will setup a batcher and call it church.
Little do the gullible followers believe he was called rather you will only see poverty illed mental individual seeking for diving intervention from him to support there means of livelihood through church 100 naira offerings donated by gullible members.
Miracles ain't working In church anymore cos where u seek for miracle is not where u find one..

You've said it all.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
A woman (wife) who gives me no reason to suspect her of immoral behavior, especially cheating, whether platonic or emotional cheating.
I hate infidelity with all my pancreatic bile.

A woman who I can make wet without stress.
Who lets go and involuntarily releases all sorts of fluids when we do the do every gaddam time.

I missed the first of such women already, will never looseguard a second chance.

And I'm gonna marry a virgin, even if it brings the sky crashing down.

Clearly you're not a virgin.
Is it not unfair that you want to marry a virgin?
