Let assumed it is the right of the inmates vote, how will they be able to listen and see thier preferred candidates speak and campaign for themselves during campaign time......

This would amount to forcing inmate to vote for the highest bidder....

Christianity EtcRe: US Pastor, Creflo Dollar, Denounces His Position On Tithing, I Was Wrong (video) by sholay2011(m): 7:37pm On Jul 06, 2022
4tunebest:
For me, personally, the reason why I pay tithe is not because the Bible commands it or not. I pay tithe just to show God that I am grateful for provision and would willingly give a part of it to show my gratitude. I know how poverty dealt with me in the past and how God intervened to make me swim in the abundance I have now. So for someone like me, tithing is an act of gratitude to God and no propaganda can make me stop paying tithe.

My conviction is beyond what is written in the scriptures or what pastors preach

There is so much controversy about payment of tithes because some pastors chose to preach tithe by instilling fear and telling congregants "the Bible commands it". They failed to approach and teach tithing from a place of deep love for God and willingness to give. Nobody should be compelled to pay tithe. Rather, pastors should focus on genuinely winning the hearts of congregants to have genuine love for God and they wont have to compel, force, preach, harass or guilt-trip them into paying tithes.

Payment of tithe should come from a place of deep love for God and not because a pastor said the Bible commands it.

I wish others that have a contrary view to tithing, all the best
God bless you!

Thanks a lot. You're the only one who has suggested something reasonable on this thread. I was disvirgined violently by an unknown rapist over 20 years ago. I like to believe I've gotten over that experience. Do you think it could have affected me adversely with regards to intercourse?
I thought you wrote in your opening post that your husband is the only man you've ever slept with?

My mother was a river goddess priestess, one day I went to a stream while maybe 11 to catch a fish and came home to boil it,no matter how I boil it it never seem like it's even about to cook .d fish was even swimming around in the hot water pot. It was strange I ran to tell my mom, she immediately ask where I caught it and I told her she was mad wit me and told me that's a child of river goddess I shud take it bak to the water and hopefully she don't kill me if am a destiny child . That word scared d shit outa me (kill me) I took d fish and ran towards d river on getting Der I saw a very dark cutest being I am yet to see in my life ,she was sitting untop of the river and her hair was so long it went under the water I cudnt see the end. She looked at me and I immediately dropped d fish into d water and it swimmed straight to her and she started sinking into d water and a wind of terrible fear blew me and I was so scared I ran and fell, stand ran fell till I got home .my mom smiled when she saw me that am a true son of the goddess for coming bak alive . Till today I dnt near rivers o cos mom told me any day I near river it will take me away cos am the goddess son . He who say ders no mermaid na cos he Neva jam..the other experience I can't say cos if I say it I will die . But the trut is there are so many things going on spiritualy we dnt knw until we are opportuned to see it .now am chief priests by convenant but av not accepted d call and I knw wat am facing now for not wanting that life.i dnt curse people cos I av gift of say it and it shall be so.
So, have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour? Because river godesses cannot save you, if this is true in anyway.

FamilyRe: Her Weak Personality Is Driving Me Crazy.. by sholay2011(m): 3:56pm On May 24, 2022
Casham:
I have a friend/cousin who is like that. I discovered the more I correct him, the more he finds a way to avoid me. The more I try to point out the error in his logic, the more he lies and hides things from me. So I stopped probing into his decisions. Now he's opening up a little. I now start agreeing with him on everything. I always suggest other options to him then tell him I trust him to make the best decision. If he messes up, I always let him know he tried his best. Sometimes I knowingly follow him to go do a terrible flop, then try to let him see the effects of it. I usually write down how I think the stuff will play out before we go then when we get back, I let him read it before we work out other options. But what I am doing now is connecting him with good people whose advice he will respect. I don't want to admit he's a slowpoke(I actually just did) because he's a good guy. You can't change some people. And anger won't solve their issue too; they'll only learn to avoid you. They're adults afterall.
@OP... Take this advice.

FamilyRe: My Dad Almost Killed Me Today! by sholay2011(m): 7:00pm On May 05, 2022
This one na real wa...

If there are people that can go with you to apologize to your dad (it's not good for one's parent to rain curses on them even if not justified), but I don't think it's the best idea to go sleep in that house. This should be a wake up-call for you to be independent of your dad. You will actually earn his respect that way, and he may begin to miss you sef after all the fights una don fight. But really, can your father kill you ni or is his anger that bad?

God help you.

FamilyRe: Why Is Gender Equality Not Respected In Marriage? by sholay2011(m): 2:25pm On Apr 25, 2022
Proton99:
Man and woman are both equal in the sense that they are both living being created in God's image. They are only different functionally. They ought to complement each other and not try to function as the other. No matter how great a man is, he can never function as a woman. The position of women as mothers wife and help is a dignified one. Sad the society is being subverted. Women are to be respected in their being mothers and home keepers and not in their doomed attempts at becoming man.
Well said! cool

Women Basically want 3 things
1. the Power and Authority of a man
2. The Privileges of Being a Woman
3. The Accountability of A child.

I pity those ignorant, naive men who are fighting for Equality for women. Those idiots don't realize that they are being cheated,the woman you are fighting for,is trying to overthrow your power. She will expect you to man up and fight for her,or Provide when times are hard. But when times are good,they will drag equality with you. Take the Russian/Ukraine war as a case study. The women are allowed to leave,but the men are mandated to stay. Not a single feminist came out to say women were being Relegated (because they are weak,which is true).
You know why? It is because times are hard,it is war,so they don't have the luxury to be fighting for equality now.
This is so apt. Wow...I hail oh. God bless you.

Christianity EtcRe: What Does It Mean When They Say That Jesus Christ Is The Son Of God? by sholay2011(m): 9:52pm On Apr 15, 2022
Interesting.

Also, acknowledging the Sonship of Jesus is at the same time acknowledging the Fatherhood of God. Which was one of the reasons the Pharisees etc. hated Jesus.

And this is the greatest revelation in the bible: JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD. The whole bible is actually about Him. The church is founded on this revelation. This is the revelation you must get to partake in the greatest miracle to happen to man (salvation).

Jesus was once the only begotten Son of the Father. But through Him, we can and have become begotten sons. He is now the first begotten Son, not the only (1 Peter 1:3).
Christianity EtcRe: Why Didn't God Tell Pastor Enenche About Osinachi's Situation? by sholay2011(m): 2:08pm On Apr 14, 2022
This is...not a good question.

2 Kings 4:27b says: Let her alone, for her soul is in deep distress, and the LORD has hidden it from me, and has not told me.

This was Prophet Elisha (the man with double portion of Elijah's anointing) stating that he wasn't sure what was really wrong with the Shunammite woman (who regularly housed him oh).

See, there is NOTHING we can do if God does not, in His own prerogative, show us things. With this knowledge that God can keep things hidden/sealed (in His manifold wisdom), it should even humble us when He reveals anything to us. Kings can only search out what God has chosen to reveal (Deut. 29:29; Prov. 25:2).

Most people equate men of God with babalawos. The extent to which a man of God can help is the willingness of God Himself to help you. This situation should remind us there is only an ordinary man without God. And the woman should have simply opened her mouth to the Pastor regarding her situation, like the Shunammite woman did.

She is right.

Nigerians are masters of masking their pains behind comic reliefs and sports, but they forget the pain would always remain there, and things may even graduate from bad to worse. We are too afraid to face important issues squarely, but would rather hide behind things that would only stimulate us temporarily.

God help us...and hopefully, we are ready to help ourselves.

I sometimes live the present like its a past, de javu
Back then in KG, I'd often see a huge figure like a tall man looking at my sibs and I just before we sleep.

At one time I was communicating with a voice in our parlor. My sibs were all asleep, I could literally hear the voice and would reply, but there was no visible person on sight.

During the lockdown period, I'd always fast and pray since it's a no movement period. At hourly intervals, a hand would tap me to pray
