Paraman:
Dangote was talking about diesel but you're here wailing about petrol

I believe it was Fuel. The mention of high sulfur content product is mostly applicable to fuel.

mrvitalis:
Oga there is no face off absolutely no face off make una stop this rubbish

No marketer is important petrol even because NNPC is selling at a massive loss of ₦500 -₦700 per litre
Landing cost is over ₦1300 per little and NNPC is selling at ₦580

Dangote wants to sale at a price around the landing cost which ₦1300
NNPC refuse to buy from him and also refuse to pay subsidy that would cover for the loss if he sales for 580

So he sells abroad for ₦1300ish

There is no Faceoff just Tinubu presidency incompetence

NNPC pays no subsidy on the product. It only give marketers forex at a reduced rate to import fuel. NNPC is not the sole importer of fuel. If not, why is Dangote complaining about issuance of more license to more marketers.
Dangote is concerned about how low marketers are importing the product. That is why he is blackmailing them of importing substandard products.
Marketers were expecting Dangote to crash the price of the product but he has been stifneck about those cries and want to dictate the market price of the product like he has done to diesel.
This recent complain about marketers could be that the refinery now has excess product and is counting on blackmail to involve the government in bearing some unnecessary burden in the name of subsidy. He wants government subsidy and our foreign exchange. That is selfish. People were counting on him.

The refinery has been paying more attention to international marketers rather than independent marketers. This is deliberate to harvest more ferex for both his debt repayment and status upgrade.
How else will they grab the forex if not by deliberately accusing the national marketers while they strive to meet international marketers needs.

The next blackmail is that marketers are importing substandard products at a cheaper rate. This is a great expose about the actual landing cost of the product. It means that these products came in at a cost lower than what is declared. If Dangote refinery cost price for fuel without incurring import and transport charges is higher than that of the imported product, it implies that the outburst against the marketers is a deliberate attempt at blackmail against the marketers who has been in the business for decades to make the federal government put an embargo on imported product. This is his way of trying to control the market.

There is serious blackmail going on and this is why the government needs to ensure it refineries are working.

The first blackmail is that Crude oil is allocated to dangote refinery at an exorbitant rate. This can not be true as crude oil allocated to dangote by NNPC is below the export value.

They already did tell us that COVID-19 was a gas and as such would need a certain gas mask.
Again, COVID-19 as a gas vanishes with the air and so quarantine might not be necessary.
Most of the decisions taken during COVID-19 were hasty decision out of panic.
COVID-19 was a weapon on test. More tests to be Carried out soon.

Is it not the fact that God got over close to the jews, even to the point of Speaking to then that makes them separate from others?

Deut 4:7
For what great nation is there that has God so near to it, as the LORD our God is to us, for whatever reason we may call upon Him?

See, you dodged answering the question "is The Law different from The Commandments?" because you already know that there is no difference for Law is Commandment and Commandment is Law.

And what you do not appreciate is that every time God Speaks, Law/Commandment comes out!

https://www.nairaland.com/6625238/every-word-god-law-commandment#103176717

So, whether circumcision or adultery or stealing or lust, ALL ARE LAWS AND COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, that should be obeyed in spirit and Truth and fact!

God's command remains his command. His laws remains his laws.

But the law is different from the 10 commandments

But a law is made as rules and regulations to govern a group of people.
God separated Abraham from the rest of the people of his time and made a covenant with him. Physical Circumcision was what he used to seal the covenant. What this means is that every one under circumcision benefits from the covenant God made with Abraham.
After God brought them out of Egypt, God gave the Israelite the 10 commandment through Moses. The 10 commandments are Gods moral laws to his own chosen people of Israel. It was not to be a burden but for morality to be inculcated in them.
God did speak to them as a nation but they could not stand the presence of God but asked that God speak to them through Moses instead. because they are unworthy. They were burdened with several sacrifices to be worthy to attend the temple.
God had to make a new covenant with them that will remove their unworthiness and open them up to fellowship with God. This covenant requires a sacrifice, The death of Jesus. This sacrifice nullifies the sacrificial laws of Moses. It also nullifies the temple laws of Moses and every feast of the temple. Those were image of the coming of Jesus.
Now that Jesus is here, He has given a new commandment to make access to God easier and open to all who believe in Him. It is no longer those under circumcision that can access God. It is no longer the Levites from the tribe of Israel.

I understand that these laws were not totally erased but has become spiritual. They have always been spiritual and needed to be obeyed spiritually. Therefore the laws were only symbols of spiritual realities in Christ. For example, circumcision is a symbol for repentance. You quoted the circumcision of the heart which represent the repentance and separation from the world. It does not mean that the law on circumcision God gave to Abraham was spiritual. It was physical to separate him from the world but only a symbol of spiritual realities in Christ Jesus.
Now that the reality is here, it is an error to mix it with the physical laws.

StillDtruth:
I don't understand you, is The Law different from The Commandments?

Circumcision is not part of the 10 commandments. But circumcision is the beginning of the law that separate the Jews from non Jews as God was perceived by that law to be strictly for the Jews. The 10 commandments is different from the religious law of the Jews. No non Jews had access to God or the temple but by Jesus we now have access to God.

StillDtruth:
Read well! Paul did not attack The Law he only addressed The Law on circumcision with regard to its physical (flesh) implementation, whereas, All God's Laws are spiritual and the emphasis is on spiritual conpliance.

For do you see him contend with The Law of stealing? Or of adulter? Or of fornication, whoredom and other Laws? No

It is only this circumcision Law he addressed because it is physical therefore people are bound to forget its spiritual side and implication where the substance is.

So paul only reminded everyine that The Law is spiritual and its due compliance is in the spiritual and not in its physical in repeating what Moses said to wit "circumcise yout heart"

Romans 2:29
But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit

Deut 10:16
6 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.

So, you see a very clear example of where Paul is Upholding The Law which you people err and teach that Paul said The Law is aboloshed!

The 10 commandments and the law referenced here are not the same. I get you clearly.
The 10 commandments is also known as the moral laws. God gave that himself.
Grace did not abolish the 10 commandments. Grace Abolished the religious requirement of the law to have access to God.
If you have received this grace and now have access to fellowship with God in spirit and in truth, God helps you to obey his commandments.
This does not mean that you can not sin or that sin does not matter. It means that as long as you are close to God, He can correct you.
But mixing those religious requirement of the laws of Moses is the same as creating a standard of acceptance that God has already done away with.

Now say it as one word.

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified? This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?
Galatians 3:1–3


Do you know why many believers today have a confused perspective of God? For example, many believers think that God is sometimes angry with them, but at other times pleased with them.

And while they would personally never hurt their own children this way, many believers today think that their heavenly Father would actually punish them with sicknesses and diseases. What accounts for this apparent “schizophrenia” that exists in the body of Christ today?

The answer lies in a mixture of covenants (or “Galatianism”) that is prevalent in the church of Jesus Christ. During Paul’s day, the church in Galatia was struggling with this intermingling of teachings about God that contains a little bit of the law as well as a little bit of grace—a mixture of covenants. From the severity of Apostle Paul’s tone to the Galatians, it is obvious that Paul regarded this issue very seriously.

You might expect Paul to be more upset with the believers in Corinth, who were involved in all kinds of public sins and immoral activities, but he was not. His intense reaction toward the church in Galatia reveals what is of priority to God. It is clear that in God’s eyes, believing the wrong doctrine is worse than exhibiting wrong behavior!

When it came to wrong behavior in Corinth, Paul was cool and collected toward the believers. He was able to handle their wrong behavior because he knew that the grace of God was able to take care of their spree of wrong behavior. That is why he was able to speak positively to them, even telling them, “I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus” (1 Cor. 1:4). But when it came to wrong doctrine in Galatia, he rebuked the believers there because they nullified God’s grace by mixing it with the law.

In the very first chapter of Galatians, Paul says, “I marvel . . .” or as you and I would say today, “I am appalled . . .” What appalled him? Paul continues, “. . . that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ” (Gal. 1:6–7).

Paul had preached the gospel of grace to the Galatians, but he found that there were Judaizers who introduced elements of the law to them. They mixed God’s grace with the law, causing the Galatians to turn away from the pure grace of Christ. They said, “Yes, it’s good that you are saved by grace, but it’s not enough for you to just have Jesus. You must also know and abide by the law of Moses and be circumcised to be pleasing to God.”

This mixture of law and grace angered Paul. You see, if you have wrong behavior, as long as there is grace in the church, grace will teach and give you the power to overcome your wrong behavior. But if there is no grace in the church, or if grace is mixed with the law and nullified, then what hope is there for overcoming your wrong behavior?

Beloved, wrongly believing a mixture of law and grace leads you down a path of defeat and will keep you trapped in paralyzing captivity. Right believing in the pure, unmixed gospel of grace, on the other hand, is the door out of this vicious cycle of defeat and bondage.

Today, begin to believe right by choosing to know and believe in the true gospel of grace. Believe that Jesus’ finished work has cleansed and forgiven you, and made you righteous with His own righteousness in the eyes of Almighty God. I pray that as you turn to the person of Jesus who has saved you to the uttermost by His sacrifice on the cross, you will begin to experience your breakthrough and lasting victory!

The more instability persist in Rivers state, the more the federal government surfers destabilization in revenues coming from that side.
The federal government needs to start working with the governor and not against the governor. If they learn to survive on their own they will start encroaching into federal government revenue and that will be more devastating.

I have been able to log in using the details you provided. They had a different password written underneath the battery slot ( which is misleading ). I have also been able to get the wifi name and wifi password. Thanks for the assistance, I'm grateful.

Please one more question, can I change the password to a preferred password on the D-LINK site?

You can. It is yours.

They are not trying to grow more food to reduce the price of food items. They are trying to take advantage of the price hike and make gains. that is the Nigerian spirit. Everyone takes advantage of any opportunity to enrich himself. That is why the government needs to take action to control food production. Not just food but also Energy, petroleum product, cement and other construction materials. They should venture into textiles and kitchen utensils. Nigeria dare not leave anything to business men. They exploits without mercy.

Both username and password should be admin.

Hello NLders,

I recently bought an AIRTEL 4G LTE wifi device that comes with a free 30gb airtel SIM on jumia but I’ve been unable to connect it to my phone or any other device. It’s supposed to work with other SIM networks cos that’s part of its descriptions.

Getting the Wifi device name on my phone device is a challenge. I saw the wifi device name just once but I couldn’t connect to it as it gave an error code that the password was incorrect ( I used the password written on the Wifi device). After that, my phone’s device hasn’t prompted the Wifi device name again.

I have less than 6 days before the refund window on Jumia closes. Kindly help a sister…please.

If you have a laptop, use a data cable to connect it to your system it should tether/connect automatically.

You could not even do little research before rushing to mislead people.

From what you pour out as name of God in Igbo, just so obvious that the rest are same misleading half-baked assumptions.
Names of God in Igbo? And the real name of God "Ch'ukwu" is not mentioned?

And who told you akwaakwuru is name of God? Personal and denominational praise adjectives and nouns are never names of God.

Abeg make una no dey device people.

The only problem with those name is generalizing them as Igbo names of God.
But people give God names based on situations they are able to overcome with His help or mere observation should not be n issue. These are just attributes.
Names like.
Osimiri n'egwu ogwe.
Owa nku di akpu
Ogbara nkiti okwu Juru n'onu
Akwa'a akwuru. The unshakable is a good attribute to God. Just see it as you would see Abraham call him Jehovah jireh

But agu is general name for Leopard, Panther and tiger (tiger was not known to be seen in Igbo land though but because of similar look with the other two it was regarded as Agu too.
Lion has a separate name which is odum.

Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
Hebrews 2:14–15

THE MOTHER OF ALL FEARS

My friend, in Christ you have been redeemed from all fears. You no longer need to live in fear of judgment, punishment, and condemnation from God for your sins. Because you are a believer in Jesus, the curse of the law and its ministry of death and condemnation no longer have a hold over you!

His Word victoriously proclaims that “Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse (doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming a curse for us, for it is written [in the Scriptures], Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified)” (Gal. 3:13 AMP). You have been redeemed!

Do you know what the mother of all fears is? Today’s scripture shows us that it is the fear of death. Why do believers come under the fear of death when they’ve been forgiven, justified, and redeemed?

It’s simple: when believers don’t believe that all their sins have been punished and forgiven through the death of Jesus Christ at the cross, their consciences are never at rest. As a result, the wages of sin, which is death, continues to oppress them and keep them under bondage.

But here’s the good news: God’s Word tells us that through His death, our Lord broke the power of death the devil had over us. Why did He do all this?

To “release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” Clearly, our Lord Jesus wants us free from the fear of death and from any bondage.

Read Hebrews 2:15 again and you’ll see that the fear of death leads to other fears and bondage—“those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” People who fear death automatically fear falling sick, so they worry about their health all the time. Every little symptom causes them anxiety and keeps them running to doctors.

Many times the fear of death is the root of people’s fear of flying, driving, or simply going to the mall because they imagine the worst things happening to them. For some people, the fear of death is so severe that it interferes with their daily life. It consumes their thoughts and negatively affects the decisions they make.

If that’s you today, I encourage you to take the time to anchor yourself in the truth of Hebrews 2:14–15. Know beyond the shadow of any doubt that Jesus, through His death at the cross, has set you free from the fear of death, and with it every bondage you may be in right now.

Verse 15 shows us clearly that the moment the fear of death is removed from your heart, your bondage is removed. Your very susceptibility to being in bondage is removed. Hallelujah! Jesus died on the cross to set you free. The more you are established in this truth, the more you’ll experience the abundant life He came to give you.

What else would a God see when looking at beings beneath his/it's station?

What do you see when you look at those far far beneath you in society?

You'd only see those you're better than.

You are right. He is supposed to see us as dust because that was our frame.
But There is a new understanding about how God sees us. We have become joint heirs with His son. So he sees us as he sees His son.
If he sees His son as being worthless, so are we before Him. But if He sees his son as Prince of Peace, and King of Kings, He sees us as same too.
Concerning His son, He said, You are my beloved son in whom I am well pleased. I believe God is pleased with you. You only need to do the below.

Nigeria is dealing with a lot of issues.

While saying that, cast your mind back to the election period and observe places without insecurity and other challenges and compare number of voter turnout to number of registered voters. Any one telling you genuinely that Nigeria has over 200 million people is deliberately clueless.
No comprehensive birth and death register so how did they arrive at the population figure.
