Christianity Etc › Re: ..the Best Place To Pay Tithe by thorpido(m): 11:14am On Jul 22, 2014
dorox: What you give to church is not tithe either because only a levite can receive of which your pastor is not.
Who is a Levite in the order of the New Testament?Are the levites not those who occupy the office of a priest?
Do you know Christ has made us priests?
Family › Re: What Do You Do When You Realize You Are Married To The “wrong Person? by thorpido(m): 9:52am On Jul 22, 2014
Marriage is meant to be till death does part.However there are some reasons why couples may divorce e.g domestic violence,adultery,abscondment etc.
If you find yourself married to the 'wrong' person,you will have to be the right person and put in much effort to make the marriage work.
Marriages can work if couples are willing to make sacrifices and imbibe virtues of patience,love,temperance,forgiveness and meekness.

It's important to have a period of courtship where you both study each other to know the person well such that you don't wake up wondering how you ended up with a stranger.

CHURCH
You can choose to give money to charity but what you give to charity is not your tithe.
Some don't believe in tithing and don't pay it.It depends on the individual understanding of Scriptures.

Don't mind those who say that.They are trying to use that line to make a hit.
Your own man will soon come.

Meanwhile,what are you doing to yourself.Are you building your career,building your spirit and taking care of yourself?The best woman for marriage is not the one who is idle.

Glitterdust: No, it wasn't.
I'll accept your words.
If you will admit however,you didn't have a good foundation.You said he came from abroad so it was probably a long distance relationship or someone hooked up you both.

Anyway,the most important thing is that you have moved out.Now you have to start picking yourself up and get a source of income.

aisha2: Why are you talking so much about his worth and finances?
Perhaps,it was why the marriage took place.
Family › Re: What Do I Do? by thorpido(m): 3:55pm On Jul 21, 2014
I hope you didn't marry him because you saw financial security.
You marriage doesn't seem to have a firm foundation.

Good thing you have moved out.You are having another baby with the two you have.You have to be strong but you've got work ahead of you.
Text him and let him know just for the record that you are pregnant.

Start to pick up your life from here.I don't think your hubby will change.
Romance › Re: HELP!!! Should I Marry A Guy Without Manhood? by thorpido(m): 2:10pm On Jul 21, 2014
luvola: Guys this is a food for thought. I repeat **** Never invest in a lady especially those poor ladies. I know of a brother in my hood that paid his ex gf tuition fee right from her day 1 in the poly only for the lady to tell him after her nysc that she cannot marry an illiterate husband.
I do not subscribe to the idea too.If you have to send a girl to school,marry her and let her go to school from your house.

jessybarbie: We were arguing about a lot of things and exchanging insulting words. I sat on a chair he wanted to use and refused to get up, that's when he did it.
Two of you get stubbornness.You both might not make a good couple except you are both willing to reform.

nairalife2013: hahahahaha. May god help u. Desperate. I wish u knew who she is. She had better suitors than me. And she was only abt 23yrs or so then. She loved me beyond words, she believe i love her also. She believe in her self and her ability to tame me and get what she want. To her, i had an edge above all other men, tho i was younger and more social and extrovert. She hard love for me and all d attributes i need in a lady and she was extremely hard working academically- with all those attributes she was sure with her discerning mind that all she needed to have a perfect home was just, she told me much later, was just respect for her man and humilty in his presence. Now she controls my empire, like jack sparrow controls ship of the carrebean seas! God help u. Just live as u wish.its only desperate women that are meek and limitlesly humble. Am smiling to my self, as i visualize your awestruck countenance if i tell u what she was then at abt 18rs and what she is now at 27. She was desperate indeed. Continue leading tha life. itz yur life. There are those that get what they want. There others that get what they deserve while others get nothing. Itz yur life.
The fact that your wife married you after that incident does not mean it was normal.Your wife made the choice that she found best for her.
Do you realise there are women who are into sadomasochism?If your wife grew up in an environment where she got beaten often or even saw her father beat her mother,she would accept beatings as normal.Maybe that's why she married you after that incident.
I wouldn't advice any lady to continue a relationship with a man who hits her like you did.
Don't feel cool with what you did.

whytepawn1: you have already made up your mind to stay with him my dear. if you have gotten this far in your relationship, it wouldn't be smart to walk out now. you have gotten his attention with your bluffing and shakara and all. my dear the devil you know is better than the angel you don't know.
Naaa.Length of time in a relationship is no reason to continue in an abusive relationship.
The relationship is only worth continuing if there is true remorse.
The devil you know........may never change.
Family › Re: My Boyfriend Slapped Me! by thorpido(m): 2:07pm On Jul 20, 2014
Your guy has just shown you signs of abuse but for you to retaliate and 'rush' him shows you are like him.
Both of you should seek counselling if you intend to still be with him.

The Op is obviously not a Christian so he and his forebears must come up with their own version of the bible.

frank317: faith must be usless..

work + faith= result
work - faith= result (as can be seen in the life of so many sinners around us)
faith - work= no result
You don't understand.The unbeliever trusts in the arm of the flesh.

fubbyy: I didn't create the thread to mock God, just that som1 said something sensible and I commend him for that, is that bad?

Anyway if you think God is the reason am alive since 1985 I was born till this day the I have a common question for you

What about those who don't believe in God but still much alive?

What about those who believe in him but are no longer living? , my mom is an example, she so much believed in God but what happened?

She died at the age of 55 while we have 80 years old atheists

The worst is that she collapsed and died inside church,and don't tell me God has taken her because of where the incident occurred

The pastor whom was at service when my mom collapsed,after praying for her he said if my mom dies he would throw away his bible and stop worshiping God,the family scattered,I ran to bush to pray, dad ran to church, my sister gathered prayer warriors, what happened? few hours later my black queen gave up

THe pastor came back to accuse our uncles in the village when autopsy had already proven mom died of high BP

He called the doctor and the autopsy carnal beings that we shouldn't listen to the autopsy report, anyway I finished him with mouth, he came to burial dragging canopy where they will be positioned for drinks and rice, left for me they 4 no eat anything that day




R.I.p angelina uzoamaka oruche
I'll miss you till my dying day
Sorry about the loss of your mum.The bible says faith without works is dead.
If your mum was hypertensive,was she on medication?Did she regularly take her drugs?
Many ignore their health and that is not the way of faith.

timmy2409: Having been a Christian most my life, I'd say the effects of prayer are at best no different from those of a placebo pill.
You are not a Christian,you are just a church goer.
A Christian is one who has developed fellowship with God and has known Him in spirit and in truth.You don't turn back at that level.

Christianity Etc › Re: Is This Not Enough Reason To disBelief God? by thorpido(m): 7:22am On Jul 17, 2014
You have to back up your prayers with action.You also need to learn how to hear and receive.
Prayer is not passive,it's active.
Finally,there's a level in prayer that many do not practice often.It's that level where you are not asking but worshipping and thanking.Do that more often.

Faith always works.If it didn't work,then it wasn't faith.

coogar: judge each case by it's own merit. saying mental health disorder is life-long or usually life long is a myth. just like other illnesses, it could be a short term or a long term. you cannot say for sure......

fakaay has been examined & he's been passed mentally-fit. i don't see why anyone of us should feel otherwise. he's not acting like he's got a mental illness. the past is history, let's move past what happened 5 years ago.
That's why I said usually.There are indeed some cases where there is no re-occurrence.
His comments here are however 'high tech'.

He said his company is worth $12 billion.He should easily get a wife with that.
Family › Re: Wife Needed - Anyone Around The Corner - Seriously Searching by thorpido(m): 6:29pm On Jul 16, 2014
coogar: what's not funny?
fakaay says he needs a wife. he's been very consistent with his comments. i cannot see anything wrong with him from where i stand. i can actually say he's more mentally balanced than 90% of the comments i read on NL daily.

there's nothing wrong with him. he wants a wife. he's not the first poster to openly make such a request on this forum & he won't be the last. telling him to get help & show his family his comments here on NL is kinda rude. what has he said on this thread that remotely suggests he's insane?
Well coogar,he's not insane as you say.It's mental illness.
He shows proof with some of his comments.He has also admitted receiving treatment in the past.
Mental illness like some illnesses e.g.diabetes and hypertension are usually life-long illnesses.

He wants a wife though among other things.

I studied Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert - CCIE, Also Microsoft, Polycom, Avaya = combination of 4 technologies

She's however based in Nigeria not abroad.
I think you should start treatment..sorry romance here first before you relocate abroad.

I said it, the guy has a history of mental illness.

This is more serious than we imagine.
This is proof positive what is going on.
The Op is still a case.
