Osun State People are deeply Religious

They didn't want a Situation where they had to be rehabilitating Drug Addicts Alcoholics, and Prostitutes all the time
So they took preventive measures

A truly religious man would respect others' freedom to interact and relate as they will. Somewhere in the bible, it is written "Choose you this day whom you would serve.'
If you are as religious as you claim, you would allow others to choose and not impose your opinions on them.

You can already tell that nothing would happen. What are their names? Which country are they from? What are the minerals? What quantity?
These men might be free as we speak.

I'll like to make my story short as possible without much introduction tho. And also a lesson parents/ new couples should learn from my ordeal, Pls read to the end.

Alright So I'm the only male born of my parent among 4 girls, i also happen to be the last born at it. my problem started when growing up, cause my parent aged bfr getting a Male child which was my Dad and his parent cravings, I was pampered when growing up such that my parents would never watch me do stressful things, dictate when I go out and who I moved out with (My mum's own was even worse cause when growing up, if I want to go out, she'll always send me back inside) even during secondary school they had to get a school very close to our house. my sisters were only the ones that would go to mum's shop and make sales while mum would either stay with me at home or if I eventually go the shop sef I'll always sit and just watch. Literally, I'll say I was denied the right to be exposed to lotta things and real issues about life.

And cause I was not the sociable type cause I'll literally stay at home, watch movies, eat and my movements limited, I was exposed to pornography and masturbation at a very young age and I battled that bad habit thr my University days (Did I say my Parents also dictated the University I went to cause it was close to our House to and any small riot in school then the next hour they'll come and pick me back home till every thing dies down)

So guys over time, I've grown to be this boring guy who is shy, timid, suffering from low self esteem and can't give vibe even when gisting with my fellow guys, in which most of them just relegate me to this small boy level. Did I also say I've never had a Girlfriend all my life cause the truth is ion always know what to say or how to maintain talking vibe. At first I decide not to care and just always console myself with I was created like that and just continue my boring life, it has now gotten to the point I'm not rated in anything at all, most people just make friends with me cause of what they can gain from me, I'm not even good in anything, I can't speak clearly, I'm kinda literally mentally dumb and ion see me useful for anyone or anything, perhaps maybe God only, No business sense, no work skill or experience, no trade experiences to

I'm currently a Corp member serving and before then I rebelled against my parent cause they wanted to dictate the state I serve which is our state of residence so I go to my ppa from home but I told them No and even got to a fight to my Dad cause of this issue and we din speak for like 2weeks, he eventually called me and we settled. But the issue now is guys I've got less than two months left for my POP for service and you don't expect me to return home useless to my parent house again?? Tho sincerely thr my service year, I din touch my allowee so I've saved up to 270k so far. the issue is ask me what I want to do with the money? I've got no idea, what business sense or idea? Nothing is coming to my head, infact I don't know. The funny thing is, my roommate is exactly my opposite, very outspoken, bold, full of vibe and bring back different female friends each day, this guy is not really financially buoyant but you see girls cook and travel all the way to give him for us to eat. I just wish I was like him, i wish i had the vibe

I'm 24years now and at this age, no idea bout my future, bout life, I can't even relate with people, I'm just so sad, depressed and frustrated. At the moment the only job coming to my head is the military cause I served in a military barrack cause I choose it myself but most of the junior officers are trashing my interest by telling me not to waste my time say I no go survive am with my nature, that military needs tough people and endurance bla bla and on the other hand, my mum is saying Never she'll never allow me join the military not over her dead body and she's bout recruiting my Dad to and Sincerely I'm frustrated and my depression have taken another turn that over the past weeks I've been thinking suicide and it's getting really high, I say I should type this here bfr the worse happen cause if I can't be useful for myself what really is the point living??

Please this advice is to parent and intending parent/couples, pls and pls expose ur children to life, don't over pamper your kids, work on them to make them sociable and outspoken, I swear you'll be doing them a great favour. For me I thought my parent loved me, I thought they were trying to protect me but they've put me in a deep mess I have to face alone and just I pray I get the opportunity to make things right with me

The first step in solving your problem is to take responsibility and stop blaming your parents. Was it your parents that introduced you to porn? It wasn't your parents that made you weak. they protected you but you repay them with hate and blame.

lexylaw40:
come out clean you BIAFRAN

You really don't have a point but you keep on talking.

Zombiedients Miscreants right now

Even in Akure, Tinubu can not gather a bigger crowd than obi. This is interesting.

BeanmanX:
If that would make ondo state be peaceful,,,,I support the decision wholeheartedly..

The only thing that would make a state safe is catching the criminals not restricting people's freedoms and reducing people's abilities to feed their families.

Fira09:
She has created more than 2 monikers this year which was banned because of her insultive ways to Male gender.

This is her new moniker which will also be banned.

She is the same as; Candidlady CandidladyTemp

She is s very unfortunate fellow.

Carndidlaydee:
Poor girl don't know what she got herself into. This gender ain't to be trusted


The day you touch or even think of anything sinister that day you will lose your life OP




Same way your sister(ireject it tho cos she a lady like me) will need help and they will take advantage of her and ENJOY THE FREE KPEKUS



Dead gender

Please the admin should ban this person, you do not threaten someone's life. Do you have any decency?

ChocolateWine:
Are you stupid?

How does asking if the bible was written in English connect with what we're talking?

How does being almighty (most powerful) mean all knowing?

Or all powerful has to do with sheer strength?


Don't be a moronic fool please.

I knew you were like this. But then I would not insult you, I would only give you some sound advice. Your life is full of bitterness, next time you are provoked, take a deep breath and let it go. Mind your language. Ask for the present of the spirit to guide your communication.
It shall be well with you.

ChocolateWine:
No sense of logic. Thought you had one. Bye.

Some of you just come here to insult people that disagree with you. I don't know what this generation is turning to.
Because someone does not agree with you, he has no sense of logic?
The guy was actually making a lot of sense but because it did not appeal to you, you had to be rude.

lexylaw40:
but you people keeps shouting BIAFRA

That's the problem with every trabalist. You could have asked my opinion before concluding but you love to profiling. People like you are the biggest problem Nigeria has. But what you do not realize is that we all are looking for solution. We are all in the same boat. The average Nigerian, Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, name it, is poor and suffering. Tribalism has not solved any of our problems but you never learn.

Rozross:
Core north, if it will make you get my message clearer

The last I checked, he was a free man. Free to go and avoid wherever he wants. But then some weeks back, he was in Borno. I guess that qualified as core north.

Climate change

Hailstorm did not start today. It's a very old global phenomenal. So this isn't climate change.

NADECO did not move a pin in the fight for democracy because they couldn't. We can not thank the organization for our present democracy because they did not give it to us. Rather, let's thank God for the untimely death of General Abacha.
At that time, most NADECO members were outside Nigeria. Let's not rewrite history just to score political points.

femisplash:
Why are Ipobs so daft. Aside drugs, what else can you do with your brains. Never have you had the mental capacity to read & understand.
Did you read that the development of industrial estates of other divisions were never originally part of Lagos until they were carved into Lagos State in 1967?.. Did you know they were part of Ogun state until Gowon carved them as part of Lagos?.. So, how were they developed by the federal when they weren't part of federal capital?.
I just want to understand your ipob sense.

Mr liar, Ogun state was created in 1976. So who was Lagos part of Ogun state that was yet to be created?

omolawale:
You so-called "believers" are confused beings. There is no second coming of any folklore-- the whole purpose of religion is to control your mind and normalize your behavior to the whims of the elites. You and millions of other indoctrinated minds are wasting your time doing the bidding of the elites. I bet you find solace thinking that you'll fly with some fictional Shakespearean angels when you die.

Your opinion.

lexylaw40:
you want the country divided and you guys say it out in the open but my post only seeks to unify the country

I want the country divided? What are you talking about?

phemmyfour:
For emphasis and validation sake, you need more than one scripture to back your claims so that you LL not be misinterpreting the bible

E.g Is Christ the Messiah?

The scriptures below and more validated that

Mark 11:9–10; John 12:13)

I did not make any cliams, I asked a question so I don't understand what you want.

phemmyfour:
Show me at least 3 scriptures that support that


1Tess4:16-17
For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.

3 scriptures to support what?
Again why do you need 3 scriptures why not one?

EmmyDJourno:
Die, confirm, then come back to tell us

We all would die so what's your point.

SeriouslySense:
God knows i tried my best, maybe in time you will understand .

Or maybe you are just plain wrong. I guess in time you might learn

lexylaw40:
just answer the simple question

It's a stupid question that further divides the country.

drips8:
They British backed Nigeria for economic reasons. The oil companies Shell and BP had significant control over Nigeria's oil industry and these companies are controlled by the British government and the Royal family.

Nigeria disintegrating would have lead to destruction of their control especially at the time as Biafra had made deals with another oil company owned by the French government ELF.

It's not as simple as that. How come the French did not back the Biafrans the same way the Brits backed Nigeria? The French took the neutrality stand and give Biafra limited support in terms of arms. The Brits on the other hand were working to keep their project together. This was the first time one of their African colonies was faced with disintegration in less than 10 year after independence.
The Brits had a legacy to protect.

SeriouslySense:
The rapture first in this event Jesus descends to the clouds, he does not come to the earth, then the time of Jacobs trouble, So he would be redeemed and finally the Second coming ( i dont want to call it a third coming), in this event Jesus descends to the Earth, and he saves The Jews.


Thessalonians is one of the pillars for the foundation for believing in a rapture of the Church.

Let me clarify what i believe it says and mean, its how i have come to understand it.

1 Thessalonians 5

3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

4 But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. 5 You are all children of the light and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6 So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. 8 But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. 9 For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10 He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. 11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.


2 Thessalonians 2
The Man of Lawlessness
Lets look at 2 Thessalonians 2, notice it is talking about the day of the lord, what is coming before the day of the lord,

1) If you look at it closely, its says the first thing that happens is a falling away ( very likely i believe is the rapture)
2) Then the Son of perdition is revealed

If you read further it explains further, that Son of perdition cannot be revealed until the one who withstands, is removed out of the way.

The one who can withstand the devil is either God the father, God the son Jesus Christ or the Holy Spirit also known as the spirit of Christ.

We know that the Holy Spirit came upon the church. Therefore if the Church is removed from the scene, the holy spirit goes up with the church.


So read Thessalonians maybe you will come to this understanding.

2 Thessalonians
3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.

6 And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. 7 For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. 9

Finally look at this

1 Thessalonians 4:13-17

13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.

Sir, from the scriptures you quoted, we are told that they would met the Lord in the air
Some translations say the cloud. The last I checked, the air and cloud were still a part of the earth. So it seems the rapture has nothing to do with the rightous going up to heaven

While some Christians believe that Christ is coming to earth again to reign, others believe that he would rapture the righteous to heaven and leave the wicked on earth. What does the bible say about both. Please use the scriptures.

lexylaw40:
It will be interesting to know how you will vote if you are faced with a situation were you are barred from voting for politicians from your Tribe or Geopolitical Zone. In other words ( YOU CAN NOT VOTE FOR YOUR PERSON and YOU MUST VOTE) . which tribe or zone will you prefer to vote for
(a) A Northerner..... Housa Fulani etc..
(b) An Easterner.... Igbo etc..
(c) A Westerner.... Yoruba



.....my first post on Nairaland

And your first post on Nairaland was made to encourage tribalism. I wonder what your next post would be.

Fake story

OkCornel:
Thanks.

Kobojunkie disagrees. I find it hilarious.

Let him argue with the Bible.

OkCornel:
Hebrews 7 v 1-3;

1. This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him,

2 and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, the name Melchizedek means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.”

3 Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, resembling the Son of God, he remains a priest forever.

Basic comprehension exercise.

tctrills, MaxinDHouse from the above passage, is Melchizedek a priest of the most high God forever?

The bible just said so.

citygarden:
Tell me any Yoruba commissioners or any political appointment in Anambra under peter Obi. Since 1999 Igbo have been appointed in political office in Lagos state. Who is more nationalistic?

Why do you guys keep acting as if Lagos belongs to the Yoruba. It belongs to all Nigerians. The Igbos have contributed to Lagos as much as any other tribe. You have contributed practically nothing to Anambra state so why should you be appointed a commissioner?

lhordspy:
An average ndi-dot is such an ungrateful and toxic specie.

The same igbos that are painting Tinubu bad, the same man that accept and accomodate them in Lagos, accomodate them into political positions and goverment cabinet, not leaving them to their suffering state in the south-east.

It either they are ungratefully going back to chop-off the finger that 'fed' them or Biting the finger that 'feeds' them. Ungrateful Lot.

That same UJu of a woman, am very sure she benefitted from the early schools the british christian evangelism brought to Nigeria. If not, she wouldnt have been a professor she is today.

But as usual, all thing doesnt matter to them except the deep hate they always nurture for everyone else, Languishing in the ocean of pain and hatred, blaming everyone for their unfortunatr misfortune except themselves.

Infact an average ibo person is worst than a fulani man who doesnt forgive easily.

Reason why i dont and will never support Peter. An igbo administration will be worst than Abacha regime, because to them it is always about payback.

tribalist now you are comparing the Brits to dirty Tinubu.

Janosky:
Question 1 answer: 1 Timothy 5:8.
Did your Bible exonerate Jehovah's servants from paying their bills?
If JWs knock on your door to appeal for financial aid ,in order to go the extra mile you demand, will you respond & help them?
Una go push am to front page topic on NL.

Question 2 answer:
JWs went the extra mile to hold our weekly Bible study meetings online.
Hebrews 10:23-25,Every JW made lots of personal sacrifice to participate in our online Bible study program.
But,Christendom's business centers & Pastorpreneurs could not sustain online church services because they recorded financial losses & it was not bringing in the immense profits that accrued from the usual attendance offline.

The Pastorpreneurs went the extra mile to put pressure on the Government to allow them reopen their business centers.

Some of us believe in our rights to work, freedom to gather and worship and believe that these freedoms are beyond any government. They are God given. It is evil for government to prevent us from worship, work and to convene as we choose.
