EricBloodAxe:
Where are the militants and cultists when you need them? They've all gone underground and silent to this herdsmen menace.

The so-called militants are cowards who are only fighting to enrich themselves and their warlords. They blow up pipelines when no one will return fire but when an ordinary teenage Fulani hardbody with bow and arrow and Dane guns come to town, the so-called militants flee and leave their women to do the fighting.

Shame on them.

What Does the Bible Say About Wearing Makeup and Jewelry?

The Bible’s answer


While it does not discuss this subject in detail, the Bible does not condemn the wearing of makeup, jewelry, or other forms of adornment. However, rather than focusing on physical appearance, the Bible promotes “the incorruptible adornment of the quiet and mild spirit.”​—1 Peter 3:​3, 4.


Physical adornment not condemned


Faithful women in the Bible adorned themselves.

Rebekah, who married Abraham’s son Isaac, wore a gold nose ring, gold bracelets, and other expensive jewelry that she received as a gift from her future father-in-law. (Genesis 24:22, 30, 53) Similarly, Esther accepted “beauty treatments” to prepare for her potential role as queen of the Persian Empire. (Esther 2:​7, 9, 12) These treatments apparently included the use of “cosmetics,” or “different kinds of makeup.”​—New International Version; Easy-to-Read Version.


Bible illustrations use jewelry in favorable comparisons.

For instance, a person who offers good advice is compared to “an earring of gold . . . to the receptive ear.” (Proverbs 25:12)
Likewise, God himself compared his treatment of the nation of Israel to that of a husband who adorns his bride with bracelets, a necklace, and earrings.
This adornment made the nation “extremely beautiful.”​—Ezekiel 16:11-​13.



Misconceptions about makeup and jewelry


Misconception:

At 1 Peter 3:3, the Bible condemns “the braiding of hair and the wearing of gold ornaments.”

Fact: The context shows that the Bible is highlighting the value of inner beauty in contrast to that of a fine appearance or adornment. (1 Peter 3:​3-6) This contrast is also made elsewhere in the Bible.​—1 Samuel 16:7; Proverbs 11:22; 31:30; 1 Timothy 2:​9, 10.

Misconception: The use of eye paint, or “eye shadow,” by wicked Queen Jezebel proves that wearing makeup is wrong.​—2 Kings 9:​30, footnote.

Fact: Jezebel, who practiced sorcery and murder, was judged for her wicked deeds, not for her appearance.​—2 Kings 9:​7, 22, 36, 37.

Burna boy's performance was exquisite on Jimmy Kimmel show last night. The whole audience was on its feet and gave him a resounding ovation thereafter. Correct Afrobeats.

This is fake news. This man scaled 19 stories in Philadelphia to escape fire. It was on every major news outlet this weekend.

So how can we help this lady without any sort of contact data?

Dem full internet dey beg celebrities and any seemingly rich guy.

It appears that some ignoramuses here do not know the difference between dance music and movie sound tracks music.

Movie sound tracks will make sense when you watch scenes and hear the sound track in the background, perfectly fitting the scene.

Such music are not designed for dope heads to get high and
and breakout in gbe body and other foolish danceslike soapy.

Olodo kawai.

If it were an African country or poor Argentina (remember Falkland Island? ), the Brit would have rushed like a crazed muscle man, to attack Iran.

Make dem go attack Iran na? Ayatollah peeps with beards will teach dem a lesson.

Tinubu spoke nothing but the truth here.

Having said that, I detect pandering and political posturing in preparation for a Presidential run. He may very well be successful in this bid.

We are watching.

Elite goats believe that their lives and those of their family members have more value than those of ordinary Nigerians.

Nansense

There is no iota of concrete evidence that the poor girl was killed by Fulani herdsmen.

What is certain is that the killers were armed and robbers. Even if they wore herdsmen apparel, they could have come from the East, West, or North. We have zero proof that they were fulani herdsmen.

FFK and his Afenifere cohorts are toothless cowards, I'm sorry to say.

These fools act as if the life of the daughter of Afenifere members is more precious than those of countless Nigerians who have died on both sides of the conflict.

Where have these incompetent leaders been all along? The fools have no cache of ammunition for defense, no wisdom to craft lasting political solutions, and no political creativity to protect their individual households much more an entire Yoruba group.

FFK should STFU. Nansense.

These giant rats carry deadly diseases such as rabies which you electronic generation kids do not have immunity against, like your oldefolks did.

Eat this thing with care.

Fully endorsed

It looks like the #metoo movement has finally hit Nigeria. Disgusting rapists using their powers to rape these women should be exposed and disgraced.

There is no excuse for raping anyone particularly in Nigeria where sex is not exactly expensive. Nice willing babes full everywhere and cheap Oloshos are available for the shy men.

Why take the dignity away from innocent and vulnerable women? Castration would not do justice to the ones found guilty.

I commend the protesters, but I must ask this question:

When are you all going to protest against the ongoing rape of Nigerians by your Governors and members of NASS? They have been rapimg you people for decades.

GutsOverFear:


The question everyone has failed to answer is would she have done the same thing if the man was a local roadside vulcaniser

I'm sorry to say that your question does not make much sense. A roadside vulvaniser would not have the opportunity nor power needed to perpetrate what this 'pastor' is accused of.

I'm afraid, where there is smoke, there is fire. The smoke here is comparable to that coming from Sheesha than from ordinary cigarette.

Teewhy2:
Just wondering why ambassadors to this kind of country can't be someone not more than 60 years this kind of man will have an old way of expecting things to be done and might be a person who may not really embrace the 21st way of doing things.

This esteemed ambassador and Buhari go way back, many decades back. He is trusted 100% by our president.

The Ambassador is surrounded by competent career and political diplomats. There is no need to be concerned about this Ambassador.

Save your energy for protests and outrage against your governors and NASS members who continue to rob you blind.

Africans love to take Oyibo scheme and bastardize it.

Why must the meaning of a degree designation be a mystery? At the end of the day, I can assure you that there are more successful people in life with a B. Sc. than those with B.Sc (Hons).

The mystery of the meaning of the said designation is a testament to the decadence of una education system.

They both will be charged with Assault and Disorderly conduct and may have to pay a hefty fine if they are too poor to obtain competent legal representation.

The lady can actually file a civil lawsuit against the man if she sustained injuries. Ambulance chasing lawyers and corrupt doctors can engineer such an injury.

All bets are off if the man's pockets are not deep. That is America for you

I suspect that both Tonto and Churchill are still in love with each other but do not know how to reconnect.

They need a very good shrink and God's help to save them both. Neither of them is able to truly move on.

Professor : You are a Christian, aren’t you, son?

Student : Yes, sir.

Professor: So, you believe in GOD?

Student : Absolutely, sir.

Professor : Is GOD good?

Student : Sure.

Professor: Is GOD all powerful?

Student : Yes.

Professor: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to GOD to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But GOD didn’t. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?

(Student was silent.)

Professor: You can’t answer, can you ? Let’s start again, young fella. Is GOD good?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Is satan good ?

Student : No.

Professor: Where does satan come from ?

Student : From … GOD …

Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it ? And GOD did make everything. Correct?

Student : Yes.

Professor: So who created evil ?

(Student did not answer.)

Professor: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?

Student : Yes, sir.

Professor: So, who created them ?

(Student had no answer.)

Professor: Science says you have 5 Senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son, have you ever seen GOD?

Student : No, sir.

Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your GOD?

Student : No , sir.

Professor: Have you ever felt your GOD, tasted your GOD, smelt your GOD? Have you ever had any sensory perception of GOD for that matter?

Student : No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.

Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?

Student : Yes.

Professor : According to Empirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?

Student : Nothing. I only have my faith.

Professor: Yes, faith. And that is the problem Science has.

Student : Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Professor: Yes.

Student : And is there such a thing as cold?

Professor: Yes.

Student : No, sir. There isn’t.

(The lecture theater became very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

(There was pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)

Student : What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?

Student : You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light. But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, well you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?

Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man ?

Student : Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Professor: Flawed ? Can you explain how?

Student : Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good GOD and a bad GOD. You are viewing the concept of GOD as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.

Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

Professor: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.

Student : Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going.)

Student : Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor. Are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class was in uproar.)

Student : Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?

(The class broke out into laughter. )

Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on faith, son.

Student : That is it sir … Exactly ! The link between man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keeps things alive and moving.


By the way, that student was Albert Einstein.

Zionist and Nnamdi Kanuist sighted. smh

Eniola is not known to be suffering from a thyroid related disease, so her weight is primarily due to over eating.

For her health, Gatric bypass surgery costs approximately $25,000 on the USA which she can afford.

This surgery will work wonders and bring her beauty out. It will keep her healthy too.

David's handlers should have arranged a limo to pick him up. It does not even have to be a stretch limo.

Superstars shouldn't roll like that in Atlanta. I suspect that this could be another publicity stunt.

Here's what I posted elsewhere:

nduchucks:
Dumb Nnamdi Kanu, a very unsophisticated, visionless leader is at it again.

If he had been wise, he would have had his own anointed people completely take over the entire SE politically and worked for his agenda from within the Nigerian system. Mumu

For putting himself in a position of either having a third person videotaping him and his wife after sex, or setting up the video equipment himself, Nnamdi has confirmed without a doubt that he is senseless and very unwise.

I hide my head in shame for Nnamdi.

I must say however that some ladies will die to have his wife's flat stomach.

Why can't the Alafin deal with known thieves within his Kingdom the same way, today.

Why not send that Charm to deal with thieving politicians in both parties?

Reason: the story is a big fat lie.

The 60yr mandatory retirement age is senseless. Retirement should be voluntary. People should be eligible for pension as long as the reach retirement age of 60 if they choose to retire at that time, but they should not be forced to retire at 60.

Most professionals in good health can continue to make huge contributions well into their 70s.
