What you are simply saying is God can become anything which is impossible.

That is simply not what I said or implied, you are the one stretching the matter to God, God is infallible. The Bible said it is impossible for God to lie. Job 34:10 says it is unthinkable for the true God to act wickedly, for the almighty to do wrong. James 1v13 says God cannot be tried with evil things.
So that puts God in a totally different pedestal to everyone else. God can not sin, while any man can sin. So everyone born from God is not the same as God, he is never anyone's equal in all ramifications. Those Bible verses I quoted does not apply to anyone else but God alone.

Porneia is not just fornication or prostitution, por·neiʹa, a general term for all unlawful sexual intercourse. It includes adultery, prostitution, sexual relations between unmarried individuals, homosexuality, and bestiality.
Some engagement ceremony are actually marriages especially traditionally engagements, once a groom has paid bride price and other demands and the woman's family has handed over the lady to the man or his family which often happens in engagement ceremony, a marriage has been conducted and the couple can copulate.

I know you are Jehovah witnesse person, bcus I kn the way you people talk.
Is true that once save is not always save but you can be sure of yousel that you are save it u truly depart from sin, and work in the light of God as a born again person.
I can't remember that scripture, but Paul said he keep his body under control so that he wil not be regected or cast away,(ie not sining)after winning soul to the kingdom, but at that point he was sure he had salvation and not sth when you get to heaven before you know if u are save or not
So if as a beleiver you somehow for into sin, quickly repent of it and move on(ie for the genuine born again once not the born again sinners, who hide under grace to continually commit sin)

I agree with all you have said, he said continues to pummel his body and lead it as a slave, he knows he is saved if he continues to do so, he must not stop. That is the same reason Satan came to tempt Jesus, and when he failed, the scriptures said he went until another convenient time. Satan knows there is a chance for any human to turn, he was trying to get Jesus to lose out on salvation.

A soul who has been "born of God" cannot be a serial rapist. Because the incorruptible life and nature of God is in him..

Anybody born of God can become anything. That's why the Bible cautioned that let us those who are standing beware lest they should fall. The angels that have been with God for aeons sinned in the time of Noah and became corruptible

paxonel:
bible reference please!
Don't just talk because you hear people saying it

Indeed hebrews 10 Vs 26 to 32. Rev 2v10, Rev 3v 11 and 12. 1cor9vs24 to 27

paxonel:
you have agreed on this because it is scriptural
but this one you have just said, it is never scriptural but assumption. Or do you have any bible reference?

Once saved is not always saved. In fact a salvation is not sure until the prize has been received and that is why by enduring to the end, salvation is attained.

Just a couple of good acts does not put a name in the book of life, you must be a practicer of righteousness for the name to be, and also a couple of sins or mistakes does not take a name off, you have to become a practicer of wickedness, once committing sin becomes a way of life then the person name would be blotted out. And of course it is not a literal book.

So after relocating to paradise ,you are writing epistles to discourage others from joining you.
Kolewerk!
PLAB, USMLE and other foreign exams on point.

Nigeria doesn't need medical doctors.
After all nobody even appreciates them.
Patients and other health workers including cleaners are fighting them.

I implore every medical doctor to gather resources and leave this country...
God bless you.
I am a lawyer and I am on my way out already.
See you in paradise

Good luck o lawyer, doctors dey Comot you see want Comot, to go do Wetin? You want employ you for countries wey awyer full, with your accent den go just dey convict your few clients, both judge and jury go just dey look you like say nah Greek you dey speak.

This Saudi team is useless. Thank God we are not in Russia with that shade of Green.

Lolololol, make some green goblins no go merge our spirit

Which kain keeper be this

Icon79:
Nne, thank you for breaking it down much better than I can ever do.

And you can just add - make Iwobi your creative midfielder. Mikel is too sluggish to be effective in the AM role in Russia. He slows our game down. Make it our deep lying playmaker (Pirlo role) and this team would change.


O pari

And from his deep lying pirlo role, he should not play those sky balls that my grandma would have gone and come back from market before it lands.

ibekwe97:
Useless Governors ,u better lost ur shop than to lost ur life .

This is what he should be addressing, those who threaten to kill or maim anyone that opens their shop.

Nigerian politicians are just unbelievable. You want to seize people's shop because they decided to sit at home... That's just lunacy. He is supposed to protect anyone that opens their shop from being attacked and allow those who want to lock up to do so.

Odunayaw:
I kid you not, All mummified Pharaohs of old will be having a great meeting today discussing how Ramos destiny must & will be fingered

Am sorry, they are not mo Salah's ancestor. They probably caused it for people calling him an Egyptian King��

Goal for Liverpool yeah, wish Madrid lose today with all the nonsense Ramos is doing up and down

A pitch invader should have run in and punch that Ramos.

Joebie:
That inferiority complex thing is a whole different matter. I like it that u went back to history because it helped expose the facts which is now staring at our faces.

Consider the Indian caste system you mentioned, ladies buy bleaching creams because culturally they are inferior if they looked darker.

How about the thought back then that the more dark u are the more u are thought of as a slave? Now that’s the root problem. Because we are still thinking with that slavery mindset.

Tanning is not about looking darker but getting a characteristic tone associated with exposure to the sun. If what I’ve said is untrue why did they not manufacture skin darkening creams? And if there is any out there, how popular is it among whites?

Conclusion if you still believe that the lighter the better you have succeeded in preserving that slavery mindset. And that’s the mindset I’m speaking against.

Many of us Africans have never been slaves. So why do we think like that?

That characteristic tone makes your skin darker and amongst whites, its a new cool...am a black man, even if its possible to tan my skin, i would not do it because i dont want to be darker than i am and neither have i found it necessary to be fairer than i am.
What am driving at is let us not Africanized it because we are the 'black race', as if it is strictly an African thing.
I gave the example of indians. This article talks about bleaching amongst koreans. https://hellogiggles.com/beauty/skin-bleaching-and-other-ways-korean-women-are-taking-beauty-standards-a-bit-too-far/.
I copied this next quote from wikipedia "In Japan the preference for skin that is white and free of blemishes has been around for centuries, long before European and American media were widely known. There is an old proverb "white skin covers the seven flaws" (色の白いは七難隠す iro no shiroi wa shichinan kakusu) which refers to a white-skinned woman being beautiful even if her features are not attractive."
That proverb indicates that the japanese feelings about dark skin has been there before the "whites" came.
Middle-eastern women and men are also using bleaching creams. I cited also historically that very white/pale skin was valued amongst caucasians.

If you ask a 'yellow lady' in Africa, would you like to be darker? what answer will you likely get, ask a korean woman, an Arab woman, a White woman (tanning as i said is a new cool that translates to wealth, outdoor, vacations, and a new distinct tone). You are going to get a great number of No. Now ask a darker complexioned woman in Africa, India, middle-east, korea, if they want to be fairer, then you get a great number of No.
So universally in my opinion evidence shows that we prefer a fairer skin.
If so, why is that so? Is it genetic, is it evolutionary. Have we subconsciously over time associated darker tones with cavemen/early men, poverty, dirt, slavery, servitude, lower class etc.
My major point is whether this is the case or not, i will not castigate African women that they dont like their race because they lighten their tone, i see bleaching in all races or rather a preference for whiteness even among whites as long as anyone can remember.
Technology has now made it possible that what you dont like, you can get it. Rooney got rid of his bald head, a white lady in Europe did a melanin therapy and she is now blacker than Sadio Mane, Rachel Dolezal is a white lady but cosmetically made herself mullato and has been claiming she is black..am sure when technology makes it possible for us to grow wings, some people will want to be birds.

AIG07:
If no body does, I do appreciate it. Recently, I saw some random ladies, I whispered at them just to get their attention... I walked up to them to tell them how beautiful they are in their natural hair.(not the usual plaiting or afro thing)-this one seems to be a new trend as I have been seeing it on few others . The level of surprise that greeted my compliment confused me myself as if say no one has ever complimented them in their natural Beauty before.

Their is need for awareness on the beauty of the black race and I feel that our media and entertainment industry have major roles to play.

No more should our black women see themselves as inferior to other race due to their skin color, hair and even today sef eye color.

Why would you think ladies do these things strictly because of inferiority complex and self loathe. How about choices, how about variety. Even those who bleach why must it be that they want to be white. What is black, what are the shades of black. What if they bleach so as to look like fairer skinned blacks. There are different shades of blacks, most of us are not even black we are olive brown. Our naturally fair ladies, if you replicate their skin colour on paper no sane person will call it black. So what exactly is the black colour such that those bleaching are strictly trying to be white, how about if they trying to be like the fair/yellow girl next door who is as African as anyone else.
In most cultures fairer skin has often been associated with wealth, class, nobility.
In Europe a noble woman who be very pale and fair because she does not work outdoors, while a servant girl would be tanned and sun burnt. Remember Mirror mirror on the wall who is the fairest in all the land.. Snow White. So historically dark skin has generally been associated with a servant class. In evolution all early men are often depicted with darker skin, even those found in Caucasus, why is that.
Indians buy more bleaching cream than the whole of West Africa, because their caste system is closely linked to skin colour. Mere looking at you, they class you into the lower castes by the darker you are, so even the darked skinned Indians who are of the upper caste bleach their skin so as to reduce such mistaken classification.
So an African lady who wears Brazilian hair today, does Afro tomorrow, goes on low cut for another five years, plaits her hair with rubber or atmakasa, do braids often, do dreadlocks for another 3 years and generally does whatever pleases her or currently trends, would you say she has inferiority complex or she is just confused or she is just exercising her rights to choose what to wear.
There are whites now who would prefer to have tanned skin permanently, because now it is associated with the outdoors, vacations, healthy living. It is now a new cool to be darkened, being very white and pale means you don't go out probably poor, it means you look sickly/pale. White girls that tan and do lip and buttocks enlargement is it white loathing/ do they hate their heritage or is it just that they want something they desire and it has nothing to do with them regretting their race. Those that even do braids or cornrows are vilified for the silly cultural appropriation bullshit. Why can't people just groom themselves the way they want without race being attached.
Some guys will never be caught in native attires because they just don't like it, is that also self hate or inferiority complex.
Humans are fluid, complex, interesting, enigmatic, eccentric. There is no almighty formula that defines our actions and is true for all values under constant testing conditions. I may react in a certain way today and under the same exact conditions react differently because am a human and not a reagent.

Jerusalem became the capital of the nation of Israel around 1070 BCE and they lost their capital in 70 CE with the destruction of Jerusalem by General Titus of the Rome. The temple was burnt to the ground and Jew's were not allowed to enter the city for centuries. Foreigners completely took over the city and later when the Jew's were allowed they never had control over the city again. They never were able to rebuild the temple like in the past. Soon afterwards the Muslim Rashidun Caliphate in about 630 CE conquered the city. The Caliphate built their own structures and holy places while most of the Jewish holy sites were in ruins.
Jerusalem remained largely under Islamic control until the 19th century when the ottoman Turk's powers were weakened and eventually defeated. Part of Jerusalem the west bank is still firmly under Jordanian control.
So historically both the Muslims and the Jews have had Jerusalem as their City and under their control for about the same number of years

There are certain things that guarantee immortality in the game - Trophies, and individual honours.

You're right that as we grow older, the memories fade. The records however dont.

100 years from now, a kid using the google equivalent of that era could be looking through a list of EPL winners and find Yaya Toure. Or perhaps via a list of past APOTY winners. Maybe UCL past winners.

To find jayjay, the same kid will need to have either arcane knowlegde, or may have to rely on blind luck to stumble accross his clips on that era's equivalent of youtube. Career wise, there are simply no trophies or awards alluding to the great talent he posessed.

This is a man who could have had it all...but didn't due to a nonchalant attitude to tactical football.

I'm not mad at that...just calling it as i see it

Lololol, I have always known you are a jay Jay fan but who is hugely dissapointed in the fact that he could have achieved more. He played with joy and he said he would rather not play than for him to take away who he is. He is who he is and he is so good they named him twice. In a hundred years, a kid scrolling through a list of EPL players would see thousands of names, they would all be foot notes in that list, for him to pay attention or give a second thought to yaya toure he must have been looking for him. There are other lists Jay Jay will appear in.

Unlimited22:
You are dodging my question.

And you don't know the matter at hand. Someone is saying he is not a legend and is just unnecessarily being hyped because he didn't have a medal. It's not a case of comparing one player against the other. There are multiple medal winning players all over the world that no one remembers 5 yrs after they retired but Jay Jay has left a lasting legacy for the same flicks and tricks he is criticised for. You can count the number of people that were able to do the things he did on your hands but medal winners are everywhere. This guy created dribbles for Pete's sake. He created them, successfully used and people will keep talking about it. Let the medal holders keep kissing their medals, they will only get a handshake from me, but Jay Jay will get a hug and be invited to dinner.

sontoly:
I dont know if am the only person that is line with your thought, you just nailed it.

He played what the crowd wanted to see he fed them with their desires. But to be honest it was unnecessary (i dont want to be too harsh cos purposeless is extreme) because it didnt get him a big club didnt win much trophy and in no way helped his carrier grow.

People who have medals are a dime a dozen, every year hundreds of players win a medal all over Europe, majority of these medal winners will fade into obscurity after their career, nobody would create YouTube videos for them and nobody would be telling their kids about them after they are gone. I will tell my kids about JJ, in frankfurt kids still hear about Jj, in Bolton he is regarded as a legend and the best player in the last 20 yrs, in academies all over the world kids download his videos just to master one of his tricks. He has hung an indelible medal in our hearts, which surpasses any thing a lacklustre kick and follow medal-hanging player will ever earn.

Nihilstjnr:
You’re entitled to enjoy whatever you enjoy.

However, football is not just about tricks and flicks. It’s also a game of purpose, and okocha’s game was purposeless...which was reflected in the way his career turned out in the end

There are myriads of players with their medals hanging on their patio gathering dust who nobody remembers or care about. Without any medal Okocha is hailed as football legend, he is loved and remembered by millions and he would be remembered for long after he is gone not for some rotten metals but for the joy he brought to many. He has a cult following that would never die. His types are being breeded out by the sterile killjoy money football of Europe, so he would be remembered as the one of the last greats of a dying breed. When legends are called for matches, nobody cares he does not have a club medal, they hail him for being one of the best.
People should stop crying more than the bereaved, he has never regretted the way he played.

oogalabs2:
That will be awesome, although we have buyers, i'll prefer steady buyers. Let's talk
By the way, production has increased, 90% over same period last year!

Wow, okay I will call you Bros.

realpoacher:
Last, last you will die of hate for this boy at the rate you are going...

What kind of hatred is this that you will have to dig out an article from Late last year 2017 inorder to argue in 2018 when we are talking about the summary of a whole season?

Baba i can see that you don't wish this boy well... No wonder every goal he scores is like a spear thrown through your heart. You go underground for a few days allowing the euphoria to die down before coming on to spew more hate about him.

Don't worry, mark my words, come next season your heart is going to be shattered to pieces because Iheanacho will score alot of goals and each one will be like a dagger to your heart.

Hope you saw that rocket of a shot he scored last week against spurs?... Kayode in this lifetime or the next cannot score such in any top 5 league.

Rather, such kind of goals are reserved for exceptional players like Iheanacho and he will score many of it in his career. I know that, I believe in him and he did it. Trust me bro, he will continue to do it,... Why?... Because its in him

Please it's not fair to use forgiveness bizarre and weird crusade for Kayode to wish the boy bad. I pray he improves and get as many great goals as he can. Even though we are faceless in this forum, we are talking about people who have faces, family, ambitions and who can be affected by our comments emotionally. Let's not transfer the anger against a faceless and nameless online character to these real individuals.

oogalabs2:
What i do is have a cup of about 0.75 to 1Liter, fill it and spread is about 1.5 feet from the base of the tree. Good Luck

Bros how is it going, hope things are going on smoothly now. I have a friend who is seriously interested in buying your oil from your farm, because of the quality assurance i gave him.

obailala:
Look here boy, I dont know who you are, but I may probably be far more educated and enlightened than you are or may ever be, and I keep learning new things everyday. Oh yes I read the title and the first few lines and got too pissed to continue; but that you understand a simple legal term which I didnt pick up at first isnt a reason for you to think you are any better than I am.

You are obviously not as enlightened as you believe. Calling me boy in a way to show you are older or superior in whatever way in a faceless forum reeks of immaturity. And coming from someone who made school boy mistakes makes it now laughable.
Instead of reveling in your ignorance and lamenting your situation, pick yourself up, apologize and let go. Don't be be looking for smart retorts, your comebacks are just spasms of an amputated limb. If you are as mature as you claim, you don't drag the issue, you quickly let it die.

obailala:
Oga, I'm not a lawyer and I dont understand legal terms. What I read up there states the case was closed and there were intentions to amend; whatever that means, I have no clue. But anyone who understands how Nigeria works understands that when a case drags like this, it always ends in nothing. So please allow me to lament...

Then go and get some education. Lamentation is not the solution to your ignorance.
You don't need to be a lawyer to understand some basic legal terms, if you have read novels like John Grisham or even newspaper you would know that all prosecution closes their argument and then the defence opens their own.

These are very basic terms and it's unbelievable that people didn't know this, neither did they read thru the story to gain understanding.

If sir victor uwaifo said so, that would be so wrong. The song style, lyrics etc is too significantly different to be an infringement. I love both songs exceedingly.
Moreso, joromi is a name borne by people, you can't patent it and the story of joromi is a folktale, it is not owned by the Sir, it is an Edo folktale brought to the international by his song.
Respect to him but not tenable.

The bloggers just want traffic anyway they can get it. This is absolutely fake news. This video was shown by Dailymail Uk yesterday and it said the brawl took place at a horse racing event. Didn't even say what caused the fight probably betting, the video was just sent to them and they pay the sender for it.

Disregard this fake news
