Sometimes even the educated ones are worse .
My dad had this "talk" with me years ago about how its best for me to marry from my village , I got angry , because I hate tribalism so much, especially when its coming from someone I know.
I put a question to him "Does where a person comes from determine the persons character ?". He kept saying ehn ehn ehn .... grin grin.

So you are now saying parents can't be wrong ?, abegi

dna4ril:
I loved her so much, it was heaven on earth, six yrs plus..from 100level to 3yrs after service, until late last yr wen we broke up, few days to my birthday...
I wept bitterly even during the post break up days as I saw her loose interest in me and i was doubling up, doing everythin i cud to stil make it work, bt alas i cudnt..
How much more wen we did break up..it was hell at the initialy stages, cudnt concentrate well at work, tnks to ma colleagues, severl sleepless nights, wet pillows nd all....
But then with time, that phase passed and i summoned courage somehow to find reason to move on, little did i no i was joking...she abruply stop comm, she even blocked me nd all, so i also decided to face my life...

However, being wth this babe, for the six yrs plus of my life, i knew no oda lady aside her, but since shes gone in six months av known 5 ladies...had sex wth two of them...I say this with deep regret looking back, the most recent one, i rembad calling her name (my ex) while in cosy mood with the most recent lady...

My search for love to fill that vacuum she left has led me into untold character flaws, nt her fault dou, as i take responsibility for my weakness..I guess i took it too far, built my whole life and essence around her amd now that shes gone, everythn seems to be falling apart..i lost my job ystday, my boss says my delivery had been poor, that i had known ovatime, as i first class material, my self esteem and ego had been really battered as am on active search for a new job...

Got alot fghting now,but how do i really deal wth this back and forth feeling for this my ex..I feel i need more than all the therapies out ther cos av read,sort advice bt yet everyday even after six months she takes a toll someau on me and shes just cool where she is...

So i tot to give up on my search for love, a replacement or a filling of the vacumm she created after my most recent sexual escapade cos i see how its draining my energy, spitually and intellectualy ovatime...i tot to cut off from competely in my search for love, just face my life, God, and secure a good job....thats what i shud do and i no it, but its been pretty hard...

I need help...i dnr want to be reduced to a vegetable
A genuine cry for help
.Matured response pls...
Esp from christian singles...
Thanks

God pls help me....and gimme anoda chance.
sleep has just refused to come..hence i bomp into ur post..from what u wrot..u already have a solution..so work it out..and again i for one will not want to date you cos it will be a waste of time from ur story..move on guy..Get a job.

Who would have imagined that these two who spend all day hurling abuses at themselves and serving litigation papers up and down would ever stand side-by-side without wanting to strangle themselves?

It goes to say that the word 'ex' technically doesn't exist if there's a connecting factor like a child amongst two people.

Okafors' Law doesn't even help matters.

So to all of you dating or planning to marry single and divorced mothers, just know that at sunset, the fowl will always go back home to roost.

Christianity EtcRe: RCCG And LFC: One Of The Greatest Testimonies Of Inter-Church Harmony by rossi5(f): 10:40pm On Jan 07, 2018
Statsocial:
Focus on Church Growth in Nigeria:
ADEBOYE'S REDEEMED CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF GOD AND OYEDEPO'S LIVING FAITH CHURCH; ONE OF THE GREATEST TESTIMONIES OF INTER-CHURCH HARMONY IN GLOBAL MEGA-CHURCH HISTORY.

By Leke Beecroft


"And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devil's in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us. And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: FOR HE THAT IS NOT AGAINST US IS FOR US".

As the Church continues into the latter of the last days, it seems that strife, rivalry and competition are more pronounced than ever. From the days of Christ aptly described by the above scripture to the schism between Apostles Paul and Barnabas over John Mark in Acts chapters 12 and 15, the Church began to experience strife in various dimensions as it grew globally.

The Catholic Church came as a result of fusion of religion and political power and catholicism soon ruled the world. From thence came forth the Church of England (Anglican) and Lutheran Churches. Soon the Methodist Church resulted as a reaction to the Anglican doctrines. The Baptists also emerged due to dissatisfaction with the Church of England. These events and many others leading to the growth of orthodox christianity globally over about 1,900 years can be considered as the First Wave of Church Growth and spread.

In the early 20th century, the Azusa Revival by Seymour and Charles Parnham's (who also left the Methodist Church) pentecostal revival happened at about the same time leading to the evolution of pentecostalism. The Second wave led to the birth of the Apostolic Faith Mission, Assemblies of God, Church of God in Christ (the oldest black church), The Apostolic Church and Foursquare Church among many others. These churches spread to Africa in the first part of the 20th century.

The 3rd wave period varied around the world; in Africa and specifically Nigeria, it's most populous nation, it began with the advent of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) who broke off from TAC in 1940, the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in 1952, a departure from the pervasive white garment churches at the time and the Church of God Mission in 1968 led by Idahosa (formerly of the Assemblies of God). Soon, Nigerian universities produced indigenous university graduates who led the. 4th wave led by Kumuyi's 'Deeper Life', Tunde Joda's 'Christ Chapel',Mike Okonkwo's 'The Redeemed Evangelical Mission' (TREM) Oyedepo's 'Living Faith', Wale Oke's 'Sword of the Spirit', Olubi Johnson's 'Scripture Pasture', Omobude's 'New Covenant', Oritsejafor's 'Word of Life', Olukoya's 'Mountain of Fire' (MFM) 'and Oyakhilome's 'Christ Embassy' to mention but a few. The 5th (Joshua Generation) and 6th (Generation Next) waves are subjects which will be discussed in two of my upcoming books.

The 3rd wave in America led to the emergence of pentecostal greats such as Kenneth Hagin, Oral Roberts and Jack Coe. At some point, Kenneth Hagin, Oral Roberts, Gordon Lindsay and T.L Osborn all lived within the same block of flats. Coe who was affiliated to Assemblies of God and eventually had to part ways with them was dynamic and enthusiastic in his beliefs. Coe knew Oral Roberts and was taken in by the size of Robert’s 3,000 capacity revival tent. One day Coe went to a Roberts’s tent meeting and measured his tent. He then ordered a larger one. Subsequently, Coe announced that his tent was the largest in the world. He employed about 80 men which was considered a success at that time. He however kept his men on their toes, always sending them to measure other tents to ensure that none ever passed his. He died before he was 40. Such stories of competition and rivalry have continued to date, often being the case that the larger the ministries involved, the greater the rivalry.

Such rivalries even in Nigeria, partly led to the formation of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) by Idahosa and others. The newly ordained leader of the RCCG, Enoch Adeboye on his part played a major role in the commissioning of Oyedepo to start the Living Faith Church in 1983. He prophesied "This ministry shall be great". At the time, RCCG had 38 branches including one outside Nigeria (Ghana) while Oyedepo started church in December 1983 in Kaduna with 3 other members.

I first got to know of the RCCG in 1993 as a teenager through a RCCG calender. My parents had newly moved to Lagos. This seemed to be a fast growing church and I took interest in it. In 1997, I got to meet Pastor Adeboye with my Dad at the Redemption Camp. Four things struck me firsthand. First was Adeboye's humility and second, the mammoth crowd at the Holy Ghost Night-the largest Christian gathering in Nigeria. Third was the size of the venue of the meeting and fourth was the expansive land called the 'Redemption Camp'. My first meeting with Oyedepo was in 1989 when he displayed the architectural model of the soon to be constructed 'Garden of Faith' at the. Kongo Conference Hotel, Zaria. I thought it was simply too ambitious; it was going to be the largest church building in northern Nigeria. In 1996, I walked into the Garden of Faith. Again, I was in the Faith Tabernacle, a sequel to the Garden of Faith in 1999 at dedication. I could tell by the late 90s that these two churches were going to 'reign'. However, as was normally said at the time, the church reigns were seasonal and would only last a while before other ministries took over. Say, 3, 4 or 5 years. Examples of churches which had previously 'reigned' were commonly mentioned.

At the foundation laying of Faith Tabernacle, I went with a number of RCCG members (Redeemed Christian Fellowship, Yabatech), also students, who were keen to know one fact :how many acres was Canaanland? Oyedepo as if knowing the minds of his church members made a profound statement during that event which struck deep "We are not in a competition, we are in a commission". My Dad referred to that statement after the service. From then till date, the two leaders have together and independently made statements and taken actions that have kept members in a good place. A place where they see each other as brethren and not rivals. Stories abound of relationships gone sour but this has stood the test of time.

It may be necessary to at this point mention some of the testimonies of these two ministries headquartered within the same location, Ogun State, Nigeria to understand the magnitude of greatness they've had to manage. RCCG in 64 years has established over 32,000 branches in 140 countries while Living Faith has in 35 years established about 8,000 in 60 countries and often builds the largest single church in every city of Nigeria and many cities of Africa with services held live online in about 160 nations. The two ministries have also run successful aviation organisations to the chagrin of critics. RCCG's Redemption Camp is about 40,000 acres while Canaanland is about 17,000 acres making them the two largest Christian estates in the world. The sheer size of Redemption Camp has led to court cases with two other mega churches. Providence however located RCCG at Lagos-Ibadan Expressway while placing LFC at the other end, the Ota-Idiroko Expressway. The RCCG oversees about 200 nursery and primary schools while Living Faith Church (LFC) runs about 160. RCCG owns about 10 secondary schools while LFC administers 20. RCCG owns Redeemers University while LFC presently runs 2, Covenant and Landmark. The two churches own two of the largest Christian residential estates in the world. Presently, RCCG is constructing the 3km by 3km Arena, considered the largest open air pavilion in the world while LFC is constructing an ultra-modern 100,000 capacity Faith Theatre which is double in size of 50,000 seat Faith Tabernacle, currently the world's largest church auditorium.

These however wane when considering that in 1998, the RCCG gathered by CNN estimates, about 7.2 million people, considered the largest gathering of Christians in the world at Lekki, Nigeria. The numbers haven't necessarily decreased and church membership for a church less than 70 years is in excess of 6 million. LFC on the other hand gathers weekly, what is considered the largest gathering of christians, (numbering in excess of 400,000) anywhere in the world.

That these two ministries have handled growth well has not come without challenges. From differences in doctrines, to perception by overzealous members. The unity in leadership has ensured the friendship between members. The last elections in Nigeria brought up a RCCG Vice-Presidential candidate as well as an incumbent President who visited Canaanland weeks to the election. Elections came and went and the fallout was managed properly. A few weeks later, Vice President Osinbajo visited Covenant University hosted by Oyedepo. In one of my interviews conducted with a very successful and senior pastor of RCCG in 2011, he asked me "I used to think Oyedepo was a noisemaker and that we only had to contend with Catholics, Baptists and Methodists; please tell me, where does Oyedepo get all that money" ? The corporate tithing doctrine practiced by LFC seems to be a sort of icing on the cake of this relationship.

It is my earnest prayer that long after these patriarchs are departed and if Jesus tarries, the two ministries will not only continue their roles in the expansion of the Kingdom, but remain a model of inter-church harmony even till the end of the age.

"So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another"
Romans 12:5

https://www.nairaland.com/3309489/twine-drama-series

It alll started on this thread grin

On the 2nd of December I walked down the aisle with my personal 'bully", bestie, lover, fellow movie maniac and team mate grin. He's not only my bestie, he is my ride or never cheesy


A year ago I said I would never marry because I had a phobia for marriage and I didn't want to put any kid through what I had gone through as a child. I lost my dad when I was only six so I partly grew up with family members and whenever I thought of what they called " marriage' I feel a shudder run through me. I had seen so much ugliness that I vowed not to put the shackles called marriage around my legs... but that was until I met this crazy, fun loving guy with a tongue that could blow your mind off.. grin literally. Jeez nothing fazes him and he's always in my corner, yea he's my number one fan cheesy I can't believe it started from here...Nairaland

My pastor so much love how we met that he shares the story during love or relationship seminar in the church and even on the wedding day!

" Do you know that if you are hard working and you are good at what you do, you will be singled out of a million? " My pastor said, his gaze flickering around the faces of everyone seated. Of course the question was rhetoric so he went on." Do you know that you can find love even on the internet? Do you know Nairaland? Brother Crazygod was reading sister Bibi's stories on NL and he fell in love with her... cheesy"

Well this is my love journey...

I took note of everyone on my thread in the literature section so I can give them a mention when I start a new story. I took note of him on the second thread I created, a story about a call girl. Somehow I knew that he was the one liking all my posts even when I type 'lol'. He was on every thread I made and he always gave constructive criticisms about my stories. It was like I had an automatic 'like' button wink

Back to this thread

https://www.nairaland.com/3309489/twine-drama-series

He said he was falling for me...

I replied him that I had a parachute to catch him if he did fall.

It was all joke and fun to me.

I couldn't post on the thread for weeks because the transformer in my area got bad. When I finally got back online I got several mentions from the readers on that thread. They were all worried about the story! They wanted to know why the story was stopped. Some even called me names without asking if I had a valid reason for not posting. I decided within me that I won't complete the story but not until I scrolled further and I saw what Crazygod (m) and Dominic (f) posted. Crazygod kept asking about the ' writer' and he wanted to know if she was okay. He said he was alarmed because I didn't post anything on Facebook either (unknown to me he sent me a friend request on there and I accepted without knowing who he was.) He also left me several messages on Facebook and I was touched by what he said, "Bibi just let us know if you are alright,"

Dominic was also worried about me and she kept asking if anyone heard from me. I had a personal rule not to meet anyone online or give out my number but I broke them for these two people. I went through all his posts, read his comments and he seemed so mature to me. I gave him my number when he asked for it, he was so calm and polite when he called me. cheesy I also broke my personal rule that I won't meet any from online and I went to see a movie with him grin He was really persistent and patient. He didn't talk much when we met, he was so quite and I began to wonder if he was pretending cheesy This guy could really talk over the phone so don't blame me for wondering cheesy

We agreed that the first meeting wasn't a date and we also agreed that we won't see each other again.


Here's the difficult part; to say yes to a relationship or nay?

After communicating over the phone for months, he started asking for another date and this scared me. He was acting all serious with the whole 'toasting thing'. He said I had the qualities he needed in a partner and so on. This guy is so persistent that saying "no" "no' became a chore. I also noticed that he was a goal getter and he is focused. My kinda guy!

He was sweet, still is and he has a madt sense of humour. Yea I was doing my own tripping too but afraid was catching me. I could wake up one day and find a really nasty thread about me if I wasn't careful. huh

Although he is a great listener and he's got a heart of gold I was scared because he might have been pretending and acting all nice just to get cookies tongue

But I had inner peace whenever I thought of him. My heart told me he was for real but this same heart has misled me before. cheesy I asked a few of my friends here what they think about dating a fellow Nairalander and I am afraid to say that the reviews were bad!!!! cry

I decided to grant the second date and it was awesome. Then the third, fourth and the rest becomes history....


This journey hasn't been easy but it has been worth it. I remember asking him if his family was aware that I wasn't a Nigerian and he said they were totally cool with it. I didn't believe him because my ex's family were not cool with me being a Togolese and whenever I visited the mom would say "Togo is too far.." cheesy anyway I got the message loud and clear. Then add a clingy ex into the mix and my phobia for marriage you will find that it hasn't been easy. But oh it's worth it! grin

My new mother loves everything about Togo, the language, people and she even insisted that a Togolese song should be played during the traditional wedding. cheesy I got three new siblings, a fantastic aunt, three cute nephews and a beautiful niece who was one of my flower girls grin How could I forget my new sister who is married to his brother, she is world best organiser and event planner cheesy She was my event planner and I got the wedding of my dreams smiley

PS. Our entrance song was Gweta by Toofan from Togo. Great song! grin
am happy for you.God bless your home.and i tap into the same testimony.
