In his mind now he is being persecuted for the sake of the gospel . Let them learn to act with wisdom.

Who are they?

You seeking validation?

I found it difficult reading the content of this thread so I just decided to check the OP's profile, and man, was I shocked . OP seems to follow all the ladies on Nairaland

Science has an explanation for it . It all stems from the potency of sperm cells. Google it.

If at the end of the day he doesn't concede, his excuse would be, "APC made that promise, not me". Just as he promised to make $1 = N1 and run for just one term.

Not really surprising

WetinUGain:
I have answered ur question.

If u don't know anything about d money,why will someone asked you to pay and u will use ur details.....is d money urs,what do u know about d money...This common sense.....
d depositor is d owner of d money,dt he is incapacitated doesn't change dt...Don't engage urself in something dt u will need to answer to after 100 years.

Your gullibility is totally irredeemable I swear . If that is what you've been doing, please stop it before you get yourself in trouble. Go ask a banker if you doubt me.

Modified: @ bold; so if someone lent me some money and I'm about to pay back, because he was the original owner of the money, I would write his name as depositor? Please stop

Not a totally new trend. Though I wonder what runs through their minds when they do this.

That no superstition.those drink they pour on d ground during the traditional marriage,u think say na play

To their so called ancestors, right? To him who holds a thing to be valid, to him it is valid.

GreatResearcher:
Am not a traditionalist but I respect people's tradtions and belif

Oh yeah? The notion that a cheating spouse would bring bad luck to an innocent partner is a product of superstitions held by traditionalists. If you are not one, you can rid yourself of that mentality.

OP are you a traditionalist? Point 2 reeks of superstition. However, point 1 is valid.

Evangkatsoulis:
Was it cause by loud music?

Not really. No known cause

How these calibre of persons pass as celebrities beats my imagination

Naijatask:
Pele ooo. Mr controller

In a sex-charged society, self control is difficult but not totally elusive

Election gimmick. Once elections are over, he would distribute them to his over 500 SSAs

In cases of teenage exuberance, such mode of discipline has never been known to inculcate any pronounced change in those involved. Rather, a certain tendency to explore more.

These kids have feelings. They should be helped to understand it, and know how to apply self control.

Ishilove:
Can a hearing aid help?

Yes, but not the conventional type. The best ones are those tailored to match the degree of the loss suffered.

Ishilove:
What's SNHL?

That's short for Sensorineural Hearing Loss. Something that has to do with damage to nerve endings in the auditory canal. It could be due to accident, infection or age. But most times, the cause is unknown.

gidjah:
your opinion I guess sir, bottom line if my point is;all things are lawful but all things are not expedient ,all things are lawful but no manbshoyld be brought under the power of any ,if the food ibshall consume will bring my fellow brother to destruction ,then its better I runaway from eating such food. any act I indulge in which can push a fellow brother out of this race is not work the act.

Oh yeah, you can have it that way. I was once like you so I have an understanding of the posture on which you are leaning. I just want you to know that there is a greater light than this. You are loved.

first, I do not think man attained any height of civilization before they sinned. They were only following instructions and maybe there was a fruit that renewed their longevity every once in a while and as they left eden, they no more had access to the fruit.

In as much as your write up was nice, it still lacks the answer to the complex nature of life and death. According to the bible, God was scared that if man remained in the garden, they could eat from the tree of life and get everlasting life.

Thirdly, why do you think almost every living thing fear death and value life including mosquitoes, fowl, snakes e.t.c. What do they have to lose if they die or live?

There are things I would have loved to say but time and space won't permit.

On civilisation, the first man was created as a super intelligent being. He was created as a living soul to journey into becoming a life giving Spirit. He failed to do this when he sinned. Jesus Christ was created after that same image with which Adam was, that is why scripture refers to him as the last Adam. Essentially, in all of creation, God created two men; the first Adam (Adam and Eve) and the last Adam (Jesus). You would agree with me that Jesus was a being with the knowledge of a higher civilisation while he walled the earth.

On why God wouldn't want man to eat of the tree of life after sinning: This precaution was necessary because if he had eaten of that tree of life in his corrupted state, his fate would have been sealed and he would have become completely irredeemable. That is the present state Lucifer is. His own was that he had a certain measure of life and he sinned with it. I would like to point out that what scripture refers to as eternal life for the believer is not the same as living forever. No, is more than that. Possessing eternal life is having the very essence that makes God who he is. Angels have been living for thousands of years but still don't have eternal life. That is why they desire to look into the mystery of redemption.

For your last question, I think I answered that in my last post. Creation, animals, mosquitoes, snakes weren't supposed to taste death.They weren't designed to die. None of creation was. Their fear lies in their subjection to a process they weren't originally designed for. That's why scripture says creation groans, earnestly desiring to see the manifestation of the sons of God. Their lives are tied to ours for the sake of him that gave us dominion over them.

I hope I answered your questions.

alBHAGDADI:
Don't you get it? Temptations are a test. God tested Job just as he tested Abraham whom he ordered to slaughter Isaac his son in sacrifice. The difference between God's temptation and that of Satan is that God stops and doesn't allow you carry out the deed like he stopped Abraham from sacrificing isaax, but Satan will see that you do it.

You don't understand my point. God chastises his children, but he doesn't bring calamity upon them in the processes of doing it. I maintain Satan was the one that tempted Job, not God. Death, calamity are a product of Satan. God won't use the enemy's tool in administering discipline to his children. There may have been several places in old testament scripture that in ordinary eye could point to the fact that God indeed tempt with evil. But still I say otherwise. If you want to understand the nature of God, study Jesus while he walked the earth.

Hermes019:
Of course we are no ordinary beings,that is why a microscopic thing such as a virus the least level of classification of a living thing can obliterate the entire human race

Oga the only thing that makes us stand out is the level of our brain development, but apparently it seems some of us still reason like lower animals

It's okay. You are loved.

alBHAGDADI:
God doesn't tempt?

What about what he did with Job?

God doesn't tempt with evil. Job's predicament was the orchestration of Satan. Job, however how pious, was a man with a dead spirit of which Satan had authority over. Believers are not like that. Mark the difference.

[quote author=alBHAGDADI post=75804859][/quote]No offence to you OP, but your argument is flawed. I would point it out here that God does not tempt his son with evil. The chastisement of God spoken of in scriptures brings peace and not suffering. You waved aside the fact that China was economically more advanced than Nigeria, but still went ahead to draw comparison with nations like Somalia Nigeria seemed to fare better than. You contradicted yourself.

There is a reason in spite of the proliferation of churches in Nigeria and the attendant profession to the faith, Nigeria seems to fare far worse than nations like China, with widespread corruption at it's core.

The reason is simple. Most professing believers don't understand the faith to which they are inclined, nor to the power of it. OP, I'm afraid you don't understand it fully too.

rentAcock:
Its not my job to judge anyone because the old and new testaments seem to contradict themselves sometimes so I say just follow your heart and try to do right. But on Judgement day, i'm afraid that many people may be turned away from the gates of heaven because of these conflicting interpretations.

The reason they seem to contradict themselves is because you try to mix them together. They dont mix, no. One has given way for the other to subsist.

gidjah:
God bless u sis, may be u could help talk to your fellow ladies out here,most of this ladies that tend to defend this practice are horrible. Dressers, women have come a long way in abusing fashion in this world.any dress u wore that can get men aroused is simply a sin, any seductive dress pumping out curves and body shapes is all sinful practice no matter who is who.trousers in its self ain't bad but we have been abusing it all long.u see married women too wear clothes like they are still single and searching.any attire you wear that makes you look like a jezebel is a sinful thing,in the bible we all claim to be following after, how do we identify a harlot separate from a humble child of God?is it not through bad dress sense? So there are sinful dress sense and righteous dress sense. But. I noticed that the sin of pride, arrogance won't make people learn and wanna change, the devil has planted pride and arrogance into us so we won't accept correction without offence. The Holy spirit has been choked out of our hearts. Thank u dear sister.

You seem to exalt the knowledge of sin and the power of the devil over believers. Stop being sin conscious. It has never produced life, rather a certain constraint to act in ways that would be deemed acceptable by other 'spiritual' folks.

If you don't know yet that the laws of the old covenant does not apply to the new creation, then

Lotechi:
your argument is so flawed and lack any ingredients to sway any one. Why do plants die? Why do harmless animals die? Why did the first men live close to a thousand years? Were they less sinful?

I saw the flaw in his argument myself, but I can answer your question.

Man was created as a distinct being whose life form is different from any other created being. Due to his nature, he had the capacity to have authority over every other created being within his earth domain. He was therefore given dominion over them.

When he sinned, he fell from a height of civilisation he had attained and all creation to which he was given dominion fell with him. This is the truth. This is the reason plants die, and animals too.

The first man lived for a thousand years not because he was less sinful. In fact there is nothing like being less sinful. If you are in sin, you are in sin. He lived for a thousand years because he still had the knowledge of that civilisation from which he fell in the core of his being. But as he moved further away from Eden, the potency of that knowledge was gradually eroded by the knowledge of sin.

This was why Christ came. He first removed the nature of sin from man and put the nature of life I'm him, in other words, the full capacity of manifesting as God. He expects man however to fellowship with the knowledge of life in his spirit until his body is transformed to inherit incorruption. This is the gospel of Jesus Christ.

hakeem4:
Bro I hope this is not your opinion that you desperately want to be true.

I don’t see how death prove the existence of any god .... why will any god create this large universe, the come to this small earth and start monitoring how humans behave forgetting all other living things

Understand that humans are no ordinary beings and not comparable to other living things. Also understand that humans were created with the capacity of becoming Gods themselves. No other created being has that capacity.

Humans were designed to embody life in themselves and transmuting this live to others. They were designed to become creators in same order as God. This is the truth. Death is not our testimony.

I commend them for ditching Dubai unlike most Nigerian celebrities. I will never visit Dubai because of how common Nigerians have made it seem. But at some point in life, grown men and women shouldn't be posting kissing pics on social media, at least that's just my opinion.

You are entitled to it
