vickylala239: Good day Mr!!!!!
Ur post is really touching and everything u said here is 20000per true...
But I have questions to ask you.....although is not related to this sha....
My question is this:::
What is the best birth control method for those who want to follow christ and are currently married
Also
As a married man and woman who are following Christ.....is MouthAction accepted?...
also as a married man and who are we suppose to avoid sex during fasting?
Or does sex make man look unclean in front of God,What am saying is this can u Jst finish praying and jump into it with ur wife....
Please help with this.....I knw it maynt be a good question as regards to ur post,but I have been looking for right and true answers for this..... If I may answer your questions; The best birth control as a married couple will depend on your body and your sexual regimen/child spacing.One particular method may not work for everyone.As long as it is not abortion,whatever method that prevents conception is allowed. MouthAction depends on you as a couple.If it is done in love and mutual agreement,it is allowed as a couple.I personally just feel there are areas that one should not go e.g anal sex On fasting,when you decide to fast,it means you have decided to deny your body so your spirit can be tuned to God.At that period,sex also is denied.Now this is how it works;if you decide you want to fast from 6am to 6pm,it means you can't have sex between that period of time.Outside of your fasting period,if your partner desires it,you should not deny him or her. |

gensteejay: I would write a well-researched article -- in no distant time -- about Islam, its tenets and common misconceptions. But that would be in a new thread and the link will be posted here.
As for your claim on Jesus' death in the Qur'an, nothing is further from the truth. In the Qur'an, it is stated explicitly that Jesus (prophet Isa in Islam) was not crucified and did not resurrect:
[b ].4:157 And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah (God) ." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain. Q.4;158 Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise.[/b]
I would also discuss Jesus' crucifixion in the thread by God's grace.
Almost all Christians know very little about Islam, Qur'an. They only form their opinions about the religion from the attitudes of Muslims. If Christians were to know about Islam, many of them would love to be Muslims. You claim according to the quran that Jesus was not crucified.What proof is there that the quran's position is the authentic one?What if another religion has its own position? It was already established that Jesus was crucified before Muhammed was born.The message of denial in the quran is to fulfil a purpose.You must have heard of the anti-christ. There is the Jesus Who came to earth,died and resurrected.There is the Jesus the quran formed an opinion on.They are not the same. |

SuperSupremo: Well done.Even though it's only one out of many you attempted to answer but you are still wrong.
*If you say jesus is in God and God is in jesus then how come jesus have to wait and see what God's action before he follow?
*And for being sons of God millions are called sons of God in the bible dozens of centuries before baby jesus was born
*Joseph and Ephraim was called sons of God dozens of centuries before jesus.
*Jesus's speech was only meant for ancient Jews and not to the whole world as jesus testified that he is sent for the only lost sheeps of Israel, which you and I are not among.
*Only Mohammed (SWAS)according to Islam was sent to the whole mankind and in fact demons and all living things.
*Jesus never told his disciples to pray in his name too.
*Jesus disciples called him servant of God,not son of God.
*Jesus said he is not a good master,but the only good master is God Almighty.
why do you find it difficult to worship the perfect God that jesus clearly worshipped You are just cherry picking scriptures. The whole essence of this thread is to shine the light of God through Jesus.I pray that light shines in your heart. @bolded,i fixed that for you. |

TheSixthSense: You guys always seem so angry. Can I ask why? I used to be like that you know, but God has changed all of that. He gives a new heart and spirit.
The seed is sown already. You may not be aware now. Glory be to God.
But never forget that only Jesus can save. You noticed that too? Oftentimes when there's a question to an atheist,it comes with insults and invectives. Reminds me everytime of when a demon is being cast out of a demon possessed man- that anger. |

SuperSupremo: God can do anything by Himself,jesus said i can on my own self do nothing
Jesus said am going to my God your God God does not go to different God
Jesus said he was sent by God whilst God don't send God
Jesus always preached about 1 God up there and worshipped Him too God don't worship God
God is omnipresent and omnipotent Jesus is not
Trinity as a word is not in the bible,jesus never preached about it too
Jesus as a name is not even mentioned in the old testament
God called Abraham His friend not through jesus
Moses talked to God not through jesus
Enough for now,but ponder on this and realize na the whites created Christianity and sold to your ancestors,due to it not being authentic they are now either renouncing it to atheism or adding idol worshipping to it.
Islam,Christianity, Judaism all is said to be started in the Middle East but no single Christian dominated country in the middle East.
You people say you are worshipping God of Israel but Israelis say you are worshipping different god all together and you are blasphemers.
The Western nations is where Christianity got created and its dominant there,as for their manners in life i know you know much and don't really need any highlight.
In short i recommend Islam to you and in Islam you get the freedom from bondage and worship the Exact God Whom Jesus worshipped in the bible.
Shalom Alaikhim You quote the bible but because you won't be honest,you close your eyes to what you should see. In the bolded part you quoted,Jesus said,'Verily verily,I say on to you,I can of my own self do nothing but what I see the Father do,for whatsoever the father doeth, even so doeth the Son likewise John 5:19 Did you see that the Son does? You can't know God without having a fellowship with Jesus.Except the God Who sent Jesus is not the One you know. (many think they know Him). |

I mean 1 God literally and not triune god.
Tittle: From Atheism,Jesus to Almighty God Jesus is IN God.There's no way you will know Jesus and not know the True God and no way you will know the True God and not know Jesus. 'No man knoweth the Son except the Father,neither knoweth any man the Father except the Son and him to whom He(Jesus) will reveal Him(Father)'.Matthew 11:27 |

mumtriplet2: Thanks everyone for your advice.
Am in my parents house now and hubby doesn't call me to know hw am doing......mom is doing everything to ensure I stay married include lying against me to my ANTY who raised me . She went to he house told her that my husband called her and told her that he is not aware that I traveled (which is lie)...he only called to ask her if I return safely. she also told them that she (my mom) is not aware that am coming home that she only saw me at my sister house( she is the one who told me to return after I explained things to her but I didn't tell her that I will not going back again) .....when I told her that am not going back she decided to turn me against my dad, sister and now my Anty.
Sometimes I wonder if she is my real mom.......she told them not tell tell me dat she came.(Tnx to my cuisine who called to inform me).
Am dying from depression. Will I ever see reasons to smile again? Do you have any friend you could put up with for some time?Try and find a job even if it's a menial job. You can leave your parents' house if you have someone to put up with. |

Now they just had a baby. Like 2-3months old. I wonder what they'll do. God help them. Maybe one person will quit. None of them may quit.I guess it's the baby that might need to know he/she is in Lagos.They might just get a nanny except they can get a relative to stay. |

tearoses: Coco Lagos is not for me either We have properties in Lagos and Ibadan, but it is quicker to us get to Ibadan than meander our way to our place in Lagos due to traffic So from the airport we always face Ibadan. Some trips home we never even go to the Lagos House at all Personally I dont like stress and car rides so going to Lagos gives me headache I know some people who say they cant live anywhere else apart from Lagos so different strokes for different folks Almost everyone I know has a horror story about Lagos traffic and some people commute everyday You hear stories of bankers who leave home at 4am and dont get back until 11pm only to do it the next day Maybe becasue I am not in their shoes but I will certainly relocate and downsize if that were me Quality for me is more important than quantity So true @bolded. I actually know someone who leaves home as a banker at 4am,gets to work by 6-6:30am and takes a nap in his car for about an hour before stepping out into the office.It's really crazy to live this way for years. I live in Lagos too but I'm working on a change. |

I know life isn't easy anywhere though but for someone earning in Naira (that practically has no value), how do they sort all these millions in responsibilities? That Lagos sef. Never liked it. Too bustly and exhausting. It's like the sun is even hotter there. Lol.
@nikkygal, my house is a 4 bedroom. Great neighborhood. Golf neighborhood. New. We even bought it before it was completely built. Ballpark figure of 1,800 - 2,000 grand a month. give or take. And it's in the surbs of one of the most expensive cities in US as of now. Meaning you can even get way cheaper if you spread out to other places or choose less square feet.
Anyone who's moving like that should buy within their pockets. Not buying million dollar houses that will drain them financially. Lol,Lagos has her own sun.Did you live in Lagos b4 relocating? |

Yieldings: It's just appalling that Doctors in Nigeria won't treat patients without being paid first. She needed blood after falling into the pit the first time but she was rejected by 4 hospitals in total, because they didn't have the money for treatment. The Doctor at the last hospital blatantly told her husband to take her home and come back when they have the money for her treatment. This was the same Doctor who told her she needed blood and obviously knowing she was also pregnant. That is just crazy! Why not treat her first?  Private hospitals can never run well without money being an important thing to consider.How do you settle electricity bills,diesel or petrol,gen servicing and repairs,consumables for the hospitals and pay staff salaries? There should be a humane face to treatment and hospitals should give first aid at least before sending patients away but if hospitals don't collect money before treatment,most of the bills will end up as bad debts. |

Truth is there is more to this than meets the eye. The landlord was also negligent because he didn't cover up the pits despite having residents in the building.
Wasters have wasted this young woman. God keep us from blood suckers. Lagos landlords can be so carefree.How do you leave a house that you let out with such pits and not care to cover it up? Pregnant women ought to be prayerful.Indeed there are wasters. |
