Christianity Etc › Re: Can Someone Explain These Verses? by thorpido(m): 8:27am On Aug 03, 2013
Most of you muslims approach the bible with pride and arrogance in your hearts and that is why the scriptures are not revealed to you.
First of all,most of the expressions of Jesus in the Bible were figurative.They are not meant to be taken literarily.What He meant was that the belief in Him or lack of will cause divisions among people.When a man in a family believes and the other members do not,it can set a son against his father.This was what He meant,not physical fights.

When He told His disciples to get a sword,he didn't mean physical sword,He was talking about the persecutions and even death,they would face as a result of their belief in Him.You will see that your fellow muslims have been doing the killings of Christians like Jesus spoke about.

By the way,the Koran's account of Jesus were from his own imaginations.Jesus brought a message that was recorded ever before Muhammed was born.The Koran can only give you stories about Jesus.

Family › Re: Who Do You Think Should Resign??? by thorpido(m): 11:17am On Jul 31, 2013
This is not further maths na.The husband should resign if one of them has to.

However,it depends on the kind of woman that the wife is.If she's got a good head,they can both work this out.The man can resign and get a more flexible job or business to run which gives him more time to attend to domestic needs(He shouldn't just sit at home).

They can then have a plan on the wife's income and whatever the man can also earn by the side.

Rowybest: lie, it depends on ur system. It protects me from pregnancy at least 1yr because it stops my monthly flow.
You can't say lie.In medicine,there are cases of exceptions.There are cases of people who had unprotected s.ex with an HIV positive partner and did not get infected.Does that mean having unprotected s.ex will not get one infected?You can't use just your case to generalize.

Breastfeeding is not a sure way to prevent unwanted pregnancy.

ayde: ^^ lol, exactly. My mother-in-law and sister in particular were always talking about it.I heard stuff like "ur baby will fall sick", "it's not good for the unborn child", "you will be aneamic" etc. Although I'd planned to tandem feed my babies but had to give in.

I see your pregnancy was planned, which is good. Mine wasn't. I thought b.reastfeeding was a sure form of contraceptive as I was still nursing my 8months old son then, and my p.eriod hadn't come back, but alas I took in. Pleasant suprise it was for my hubby n I though.

This time around, we'r being very cautious, at least till my baby is a year or so before ttc again.
Breastfeeding as a form of contraceptive is only effective in the first 2 months and if the mother is doing exclusive breastfeeding.At 8mths,u will VERY likely get pregnant.If you are reading this as a woman,don't use breastfeeding as a form of contraception after just the first 2 months,it will likely fail.

tbaba1234: Many people that become muslim go through a very hard time with family.

There was another pastor's daugther, who became muslim, she was disowned by the family.

Alhamdulilah, she got a scholarship into medical school and she is doing great. The family have totally cut her out.
But in Islam,the muslim who converts has a verdict of death upon her abi?

[quote author=Omni_Sparrow]In 2002, I was admitted into uniben to study elect/elect engr. A fresh young lad. Passed jamb and waec at a sitting. During UBITS in between 100 and 200 level, Ariavie accosted me and said I wasn't puttin on shoes in d laboratory. I was wearin a covered slippers so I explained dat d safety rule was that toes must be covered. And my footwear did dat. He gave me many slaps and lata wrote a report dat I fought him. My gp at 100 level was 4.1. My mum went 2 beg d man. He said all is forgotten. 200 level was 2.3. Had abt 8 missing papers. All from mechanical dept where he is. My dad then went 2 beg d man. At 300 level, he was exams officer. I didn't see result at all. Afta fightin for 2 extra years and becomin a junkie out of frustration, peacefully went to write jamb again and went to ekp to study maths. God helped me get a gud 2.1. Currently serving. Somewhere along d line, I stopped being bitter towards Ariavie and jst left him for God. Now dat I'm hearin dis, weda it's true or not, I knw dat there rily is karma. God knows how many pple dat man has frustrated.[/quote]whao such a sadist.

You will have symptoms but they vary from woman to woman.
The first step is for you to do a pregnancy test.

First of all,there is nothing like pentecostal christians.It was a word coined in ignorance.
Jesus said,ye do err, not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God'(Matt 22:29)

You need to go back and re-read 1 Corinthians 14 again.You also need a teacher who can lead you right.
'Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit,especially prophecy.For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God,indeed no one understands them,they utter mysteries by the Spirit.But the one who prophecies speaks to people for their strengthening,encouraging and comfort...'(1 Cor 14-)

Indeed when a man speaks in tongues,the people do not understand him but the bible says he edifices his own spirit.Apostle Paul however said it is better to prophecy because it benefits more people.

See Apostle Paul's statement:'I speak in tongues more than all of you'(Vs 18).Why would he make such statement and even say he does it more if it was fake?
