TruthHurts1:
Apart from opening yourself to criticism, you've shown yourself up to be very stupid too. There are so many references to marriage in the Bible:

Mark 10 VS 8 to 9; 1 Corinthians 7:1 - 7:40 - Ephesians 5:22 -
5:33 - Ephesians 5:25 - 5:33

Just to mention a few.

Secondly, you're confusing "wedding" with "marriage". Wedding is a ceremony, marriage is an institution.
The Bible laid down the template of a Christian marriage as the voluntary union of a man and woman for the rest of their lives. What manner of ceremony they choose in solemnising their union does not matter as long as the SUBSTANCE of the union complies with Biblical standards.
I sense you are not a Christian and that may account for your ignorance. And if indeed you call yourself a Christian, it is possible you may be living a lie. Read the Bible well before disparaging it, or God's wrath will abide on you.

Even court marriage?

Yesterday on this forum I read how a church bought sorrow to the life of a to-be couple by turning down their wedding even after people have been seated inside the church. A lot of churches nowadays will not give their nod to marriages because the wife to-be is already pregnant. Whilst this thread is in no way justifying pre marital sex, it does intend to open the mind of people to the truth about churches and their responsibilities as regards marriage and to save people from shame which might eventually lead them away from the church :

1. Church wedding is unchristian and unbiblical: Go through the bible and see for yourself. The weddings take place according to traditional belief. From this, traditional wedding is the acceptable wedding according to the bible.

2. These churches won't test for your virginity but will test for pregnancy. The result is that dos who have constant sexual intercourse but are smart enough not to get pregnant and those who have been severally pregnant but have done abortion are free to get married in the church. This is injustice by the church.

3. Lord don't despise sinners : Jesus throughout his life on earth is always seen amongst sinners. Remember the parable of the lost coin and the parable of the lost sheep. He said he came because of them. He will never turn them back. Okay, but the church will refuse to join the to-be couple together because they have sinned (she has indulge in pre marital sex). When you turn them down from the church, where do you expect them to go? A lot has since been discouraged from the church because of this.

4. Why do marriages still crash even after the wedding took place in the church? Why do even pastors wedding crash? Getting the "pastor's blessings" do not in any way guarantee your success in marriage. You don't necessarily need it.

5. I know some pastor and churches have turn the church wedding to money making venture. If you hear what they collect to make the church wedding happen in their church, una go fear fear. They ask for this and that before the wedding,but then, how much do they pay for salvation?
Conclusion: A traditional marriage is what actually makes you husband and wife. While there's nothing really wrong about with church marriage, it is actually avoidable. You aren't committing any sin by doing only traditional wedding.

NB: While these are my person opinions, I am open to criticism.

Hi. this question has been on my mind for a really long time now and i checked here for some clues sometime ago. I agree with you that traditional wedding was what was accepted in tge bible times and infact its true. But these were mainly in the old testament and even in the new testament when the body of christ which is the church was still growing, it was not recognised yet as an institution that binds couples together. But if we are in christ and are new creatures in him, i strongly believe that the church wedding is the most important wedding. I also want to ask but i do have an idea.. is court wedding recognised by God also?

abatically:
If my guess is right that is a toyota sienna. Doing that speed on a mini van is stupid especially when it is a transport vehicle. If it were a personal vehicle it would have been a bit fair. I myself traveled from Lagos to owerri last week for a wedding and my top speed was 140km/hr in my 05 accord. Not that i can't go beyond that, but because I had my family in my car and I didn't see any reason to go beyond that.

Although you were being very thoughtful, i still think 140 is too high especially with the fam in the car

Tire valve stem cover....a lil vanity wont hurt.

I hope these covers stay on as long as possible. Our Lagos tire repairs guys have a way of 'forgetting' to return them after pumping tires.

I wonder why these guys are like this...nigeria has a ling way to go! I always make sure i monitor even the littlest of repairs on my car because i know how non challant most mechanics are!

autofreak1:
Front end completed. Sway bar bushings, link ends, suspension, control arms, brake pads, engine belts, oil change and oil sump leakage sealed.

Plan for Monday - change rear end suspension, rear brake pads, rear link ends, rear bushings, the 4 oxygen sensors, transmission fluid, cold air intake and high pressure wash in preparation for body work. Also test fit new 18" rims.


Workshop is at Owode Onirin Ketu Lagos. Its my brother's not mine.

Man! How much did all this cost?

jmichlins:
This man is one of the few guys that made Nollywood have the potential of hittling the sky but for sometime, things has taken a nosedive. Atleast for my type. There was this movie he did about family fued was bomb

Saint obi was a good actor and his set raised the bar in the industry. Until silly folks who just came in for god-knows-what sake. Nigeria does not have a movie industry. What we have at best is a bunch of fame seeking individuals who just want to make quick cash.

chika4real:
Dino started this trouble

Sahara was on their own, you went to pull their tail

Oya nah, free yourself.You have priced market, come and buy.

And to think he used the money to buy bleaching cream.

Those in glass house dont throw stones and if you must come to
equity, you must come with clean hands.

Lmao. Maybe for his ashana.. lmao

damton:
I like this kid.
he got no time for nonsense.

Fresh from the source rather than wait for it to be packaged and reproduced into tin milk or sachet

You think the producers of packaged milk are stupid right? Do you know the process of purification this milk undergoes before its being packaged? One hing i am certain of is that this milk as raw as it is, is very unhealthy for human consumption!

misspicy:
As for me myself and I....i cannot even date a poor man

you cannot date a poor man but you cannot boast of an apartment of your own...nonsense.

Prec1ous:
Maybe he got a point.
The moment I heard asa had a song with Korede. I told myself I won't listen and that I have not renege on, I knew it will be crap, if it was Asa and 2face, I for understand.

what are you saying? do you know the essence of music in the first place? it is for it to be ageless and enjoyed. if these two things are present then it is good music and not just music regardless of what makes its content. Asa featuring anybody is nobody's business, so far they can make good music. besides, the person criticizing, we should ask him how his own music career was. he struggled so much to be heard and died a natural death. he is no where near, i mean not in the slightest place to ever stand and judge another artiste.

It is apparent that Nigerians are mental in the head now. i cant for the life of me, make this write up given the position i once held if I was a musician....Verdammt!!!

Nigeria. Nothing is safe there. human lifes are not safe... not even cars parked on its own.. smh!

Lolz

Lolz

xpac01:
Hediot! What's the meaning of superstressful . So people travelling by road are all dead That's my quagmire with secular artistes. Feeling like aliens among humans...

lolz

henrydadon:
lol..I did the same when I was travelling last year and I missed my flight. .I used 80k to reschedule my flight. .and I still paid them demons...them frustrate me..I will never forget that day

For me i dont think it would happeb again. I would so scream at them now Because there is nothing they can hold me with.

Instead of me parting with my hard earbed money to these idiots i let them make me miss my flight. I would feel better using 150 dollars to resechedule than pay them money they dont deserve

steppin:
The silly Vivian is a complete buffoon. She's using her sister's death to gain cheap popularity.
If she's really in pains, would she have the time to post the crap?

I think there is a foundational problem with the young people of this generation. I did not understand the headline until i read the story and i found everything wrong with it. I cant for the life of me, put up the picture of someone related to me in a state of death just because i can, not to talk of doing it on the exact same day the person died...

I dont think i would have put this online. This generation is sick. Even on a sad day like this, you are able to put something like his online for the world to see

He who read all the comments from beginning to end is the jobless one...- Mr Ibu, 2015.

kagorba3:
Huh? So caring, do you care for his contact?

Wisdom is really a virtue. Please I advice you to tell him how you feel about him and his interest with you. you cant be this wicked and expect to receive good things. It just doesnt work out this way. what advice are u coming here to seek when you already know what you are looking for? Please tell him you dont like him so that he looks for someone who does and be overly matured about it.. Damn!

paranorman:
This is really a logical one.
If I were in his shoes I'd give two answers, thus:
logically, in Mathematics, depending on the base system, 1+1 is two calculating in base 10.
On the brighter side, I think 1 + 1 is 1. Every organization need to have employees working towards a common goal, which requires cooperations, innovations, shatring ideas e.t.c. In this context, team work cannot be over- or under-emphasized. Many sticks make a broom. Therefore, 1 + 1 is one!

nonsense! over sabi.. if I was your interviewer i would even ban you from future job offers.

Horlawoomey:
It's high time these large vehicles are provided with their separate lanes. I can't imaging this kind of accident happening on a Monday morning.

Alhamdulilah that no life was lost.

May God continue to safe our shuttles.

Oga Seun, before I close this page I want to see my credit alert or else we go enter same trouser.

Because she's a member of the family is not an indication that the family would benefit from her success... Just pray for help from above. It may be a total stranger that would help...

plezde what kind of comment is this for Christ's sake!if it was ur own sister, would you say this same thing.. just imagine you were in this guy's shoes..what would you say?

Obasanjo had the personality, respect (from all tribes),resources, ability to put nigeria in the best position it should be but he totally goofed. He is supposed to be on exile and keep quiet!

theimmortals:
And you think all cars you see are bought legitimately from overseas? Some those machines you see are smuggled into this country, visit lagos port you will understand better.....over sabi

Dont change the topic.. who is foolish to import a smuggled car and leave the original plate number on it.. you sound too dumb for my liking and i would not reply any of your mentions again. Good day!

atarapa:
I was imaging that, abi na tokunbo him buy?

How many of them even buy used cars and tell us its used? they feel its embarassing to buy a used car so no celeb in his right thinking senses would buy a used car and snap with the old plate number.

theimmortals:
Naa you mumu pass. So you haven't. Seen a foreign plate numbers on cars here in Nigeria before? Or are you such a daft? Olodo.

Does that look like nigeria to you?
One simple question. How many celebs in nigeria have you seen that bought a car even if it was used and leave the plate number the car came with and pose for a picture showing that? Just tell me one.. or you think european system is like that of the US where they can sell the car and plate number? In europe the plate number is registered with the owner of the vehicle and not necessarily the car. mr smart one.

This vivian girl is just copying and pasting anything she sees anywhere with so much reckless abandon. He did not say soecifically that the car belongs to him besides it has a holland plate number.. mumu kill you

handie:
Austin Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo, Obafemi Martins, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, Taribo West and Even Victor Agali, I know. Etim Esin, I know not.

Thats why we keep saying too many children who know nothing are tooooo much on this forum!
