Just grab a box of pop corn and enjoy the bit by bit presentation of the most amazing revelation of a place too great to imagine.

I was blown away too.

Page 5

It seemed most wonderful to me upon finding that I could converse with perfect ease and freedom with anyone I met, although we had been accustomed to different languages and tongues while on earth, and often had to speak through interpreters; but now I found, since I had laid aside the material for the spiritual, I could easily understand the thoughts of anyone. As rapidly as he could think I could read his thoughts.

Matters of detailed explanation were not needed or required as I had been accustomed to while in the flesh, for if a subject was plain to any one with whom I was conversing, it seemed that at once it was just as clear to my own mind, so I was quite surprised to find how rapidly I could take in a knowledge of the spiritual realm, and yet a second surprise constantly met me: that of the great depth of divine truth.

For instance, many things I had learned from the Holy Scriptures, while in my flesh, were now opened with a depth of meaning I had never seen before. I could compare it to nothing better than to great layer after layer and strata upon strata of precious mineral rock, so that the deeper down and the further on one went, the more precious became the ore and the finer the metal. I said to the elder by my side, "How is this?" He quickly and smilingly replied, "God never gives the best He has to give; you will find later on, that truth is unfathomable."

I now felt myself like a little fish just launching out from the mouth of a great river into a great and boundless ocean without a shore to be seen or depth that could be sounded.

My feelings were joyful beyond any power to describe to a mortal man of flesh and blood. It seemed that my entire spirit was in a perfect rapture of delight. I asked the elder, who seemed to take delight in remaining with me, how I was to account for this rapturous joy which was increasing so constantly in my soul, until I felt I would break out into shouting and hallelujahs. He said, "The spirit of God is the atmosphere of heaven; His joy becomes ours on a larger scale than what we ever knew while in our flesh.

The great joy that you feel now is only a little foretaste of what you will feel when you are ushered into the city and about the throne."
Upon this I quickly remembered the Scripture where the prophet said: " In thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures forevermore. " ( Psalm 16:11 )

The chariot was now slowing its speed and such raptures of glory which filled my soul, I cannot describe them! I was simply lost in wonder, while I kept saying, "Surely I am at home at last." The chariot seemed trembling as a thing of life and finally halted beside a beautiful grove of fruit laden trees.

The doors were opened and the angels stepped out. I fairly sprang with one leap to the solid foundations of the heavenly kingdom. For a moment I stood perfectly entranced as I saw so many happy souls clothed in white garments of lovely patterns, and all with such bright and happy faces beaming with perfect contentment and satisfaction.

I could contain my feelings no longer. I fell on my face again beside the angel, with loud thanksgiving to God; and was in the act of worshipping the angel for his great care of and kindness toward me, when he said, "Worship God only, I am also a fellow servant of his and this is my joyous service." At that he beckoned to one nearby. He came and was introduced as one of the elders of heaven, who gave me such a cordial welcome that my soul loved him intensely at once.

The angel now said, "I leave you in his care, but may see you again shortly."
I put out my hand toward him saying, "I am sorry to see you go, you have been such a friend to me. What can I do for your great kindness to me?"
"Oh, you can soon help others," said the angel. So waving with his hand, and with a lovely smile, he said "Good-bye," and his chariot was gone.

The elder now said: "Well, my son, you are now at home. All that you see and infinitely more is the provision of your heavenly Father’s love and almighty power. This is the borderland, my son, of the heavenly domain. Your sacrifices on earth were little when compared to your great gains here."
"Oh yes, and they were really nothing," I said. There comes to my memory a sweet passage of scripture which I never fully comprehend until now: " For our light affliction, which is but for a moment worketh out for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. " ( 2 Corinthians 4:17 )
"Sure enough," said the elder. "You have only begun to comprehend the glory; the weight of it you will yet feel."
"The grandeur and beauty of everything excels my highest expectation.

Everything seems so real. Do tell me if I only fancy or am I in a dream, or is it really true that I am in heaven?"
"Oh," the elder replied, "it is a common thing for souls when they reach the heavenly world to seem bewildered when first ushered into the presence of angels and the spirits of just men made perfect, and the glory of this kingdom. It does, indeed, exceed the most sanguine expectation. No, my son, you are not in a vision, you are really here. Your body indeed is left behind you, and you will find that you have many things to learn ere you reach the throne in the Holy city. But be content, for I see you have thoroughly washed your robes and made them white ere you left your earthly habitation." "Be perfectly free," said the elder, "in asking any questions you may like; for the knowledge of this world is acquired by investigation and inquiry as was our earthly knowledge.

Every desire you have will be fully met. All your cravings, desires and longings after the knowledge of your everlasting habitation have been fully provided for here. Your heavenly Father’s will will be your will and all that you see, and infinitely more, are yours to enjoy forever. If you have made good use of your opportunities in your past life you have much treasure laid up in the city of which our Lord spoke while on earth and of which you will know more later on."
"I see," said the elder, "that yonder is another soul just brought from earth to paradise whom I must go and welcome." So saying, he went toward the chariot and there stepped out a lovely looking man, indeed, clothed in a robe of the purest white. The elder beckoned me to him.

As I came near and heard this conversation I found he was from the opposite side of the earth from which I had come. He spoke a different language from my own and yet I understood him well. In a moment he lifted up his hands and clasping them together he said, "Oh, bless God forever," at which we both fell on our faces with adoring praise to our Almighty Father. We continued long for our souls were overcome with the raptures of this place.

When we arose, another saint, apparently of ancient times, came to him, and said, "Let me assist you in the ways of the kingdom." I heard him ask after his name. He answered: "I am Bohemond of northern Russia. Only a few hours ago I kissed my wife and children good-bye and embarked on a vessel on the White Sea at Oneida bound for the North Cape. I only remember that the vessel was sinking and we were many fathoms below the surface. Oh, do tell me, is this heaven or is it but the mariner’s dream of home, when he is far away?"

"My son," said this venerable father, "You have safely landed, not at the North Cape nor in the bottom of the White Sea, but in your eternal home. Your body no doubt is in the depths of the briny deep; but the angel was with you as the vessel went down and has brought you safely here. Your body will be cared for in the resurrection day of rewards."

The elder who was with me said, "How rapidly we are gathering from all lands into our Father’s house. This is only one of the many stations located in these distant portions of paradise. To these stations all souls come for their introduction into this heavenly home."
"How is that, will you explain to me?"
"Surely," he replied, "you will more fully understand as we go forward. You could not have endured the glory of the throne, without being prepared for it. Even now you could not endure the light so abundant within the city."

Just at this moment I saw a woman step from a chariot. She seemed to be so bewildered that she sank down as one of the attendants approached her. She threw up her hands and cried out in amazement, "Oh, my God! I am not worthy nor fit for this glory. Oh, can I ever be made right with God?" She closed her eyes almost unconscious with bewilderment and it seemed she could not speak as her attendant kindly addressed her with most loving words. At last she opened her eyes and looked about in wonder and amazement exclaiming, "Oh, these white garments, these golden goblets, trees of life and blooming flowers! I am not worthy of them.

Have I really a right to be here and to all these beautiful trees loaded with such lovely fruit? Oh, the mercy of God! I was such a great sinner."
"Yes, indeed," replied her guide, "but your sins have all been forgiven. The angels make no mistakes. You have a right to these trees, for they are His on whom you have believed; yea they are yours, for you are His."

At this she arose to her feet and said: "But have I the wedding garment on? I was earnestly trying when the chariot came for me. I was in such deep distress and confusion of soul, knowing I had not been prepared for so great a change."
"You have been saved, my child." said her attendant, "so as by fire, you were not a faithful servant of God, you did not build with gold, silver and precious stones, but with wood, hay and stubble, which have been burnt.

God cannot reward you largely now. These infinite blessings spread out before you in all directions may be obtained by and by, when you are prepared for them. Be faithful to your present opportunities, for much is before you to be done. Advancements which ought to have been made in the world will have to be made here, ere you can go on to the city gates, or see the shining glory of the Jasper wall. Come with me and I will assist you in a further knowledge of Christ and His eternal salvation and kingdom."

I now said to the elder by my side, "Will you explain to me her great mistake?"
"Surely," he replied. "She represents a very large class in the world who have not made good use of earthly opportunities, she was never deeply interested in her salvation till near the time of her death. Do you not see how slim and lean she looks, and how little clothing she has, only a gown! Her repentance has been genuine and her faith accepted the promises of eternal life in her Lord, and her forgiveness has been complete.

She has added but little grace and almost no growth to her soul. She feels now, as all such souls do and must feel, her great loss. She has no treasure laid up in heaven. Paradise itself seems too good for her; but God in His great mercy will bring her on. These trees are for her.

Their leaves are full of healing virtue. No one who has not received the gift of eternal life and been born again will ever be carried by the angels to this glory. Many, alas, perish from the earth in sight of the Redeemer’s outstretched arms of love and mercy, because they will not accept His gracious help; they love the pleasures of sin more than God or these everlasting joys and pleasures at His right hand here forevermore."
"Oh, blessed Christ," I cried, "filled with everlasting love and mercy for thy people, that even in the last moments of life, like the dying thief, may be snatched from the jaws of death! But, oh, her great loss, how sad!"

A group of happy souls now came toward us. The elder introduced us. We were soon acquainted and conversed with each other with great freedom, although we had never met before. We seemed perfectly acquainted in a few moments and the visit was very pleasant indeed.

One man fairly shouted the praises of God with loud hallelujahs, saying, "Oh, my God, I bless thee, I am in heaven at last!"

"Now," said Seneca, "I must leave you for the night. You are weary and tired and must sleep. I will see you again on the second evening from this," and he vanished from my room.

I sat musing. Where has he gone? Where does he stay? What is his food? Has he now no human association on earth? Can he not reveal himself to others as he has to me? When he comes again I must entertain him and find out, if possible, other secrets of his sojourn on earth.

You made a very sound contribution and I totally understand you.

If I were in your shoes I would argue the way you did cos it's pretty absurd for someone to tell me Jesus was not crucified when my Bible which is my own holy book clearly states that.

Nevertheless after reading through the Quran passages as quoted by you I am glad to tell you that what the Quran wrote is perfectly true but you were the one who missed the message.

You see in actual sense Jesus was never killed because no one could kill him and he was never crucified even if the word was used to describe his sacrifice on the wooden cross.

Jesus was indeed a prophet just like other prophets but he us a special prophet with an exemptional mission which is exactly what you must believe in other to enter Aljonna which means paradise in Arabic language

God bestowed on Jesus the status of sonship which has nothing to do with biological but it pleases Jehovah to give him that position and by virtue of that he becomes his son and by virtue of his mission on earth which is to be sacrificed on the cross as a human lamb to take away the sins of the whole world
..this was his own "prophetic" mission.

Now let me end with this...you don't have to stop being a Muslim in order to enter paradise but you can practise Islam as you want..perform your hajj, go to mosque and pray 5 times as you do,rnjoy your Muslim festivals but don't ever be caught dead without accepting Jesus as your lord and saviour cos this will be the biggest undoing of anyone...

And remember that if you accept Jesus as your saviour and you die and find out it was not necessary,you will have nothing to lose but if you die and realize you made the right choice then you have everything to gain but if you refuse to accept him and you find out you ought to after you die then you have everything to lose . so accept him today dare the consequence.

I urge you to enjoy the thread.

No sooner had I taken my seat in the chariot than I found I could converse with the angels with perfect freedom. There seemed to be a kind of comprehension of ideas without the effort of words; and yet we spoke as spirits speak. I have often heard words spoken while in the body which were wholly in the ear of the soul, and yet most distinctly understood when there was no audible voice whatever — the same as at St. Paul’s conversion: he heard a voice distinctly in his inner consciousness while those who journeyed with him saw no man from whom the voice came.

I now asked, "Are you really and truly angels of God, about whom we have read and sung and heard so much while in the world?"

"Truly we are," they replied, "but of our birth you know nothing, for in fact we were not born but created; not in the earth but in celestial regions. We have learned our lessons in the past eternities in the presence of God; but we are glad to be your servants and helpers now, and this has been our glad service ever since man was created upon the earth, but we can tell you more about ourselves at another time."

I replied, "We have been strangers until this time, but you make me feel great confidence in your ability to safely guide the chariot. I have been looking for this time for many years, but did not know it was so near."

"Oh," said the charioteer, "you need have no fears, I will conduct you safely to your eternal home."

"I looked out of the chariot again and saw we were passing with indescribable speed. The earth with its cities, towns and mountains were vanishing like a spector in the distance. We soon seemed to have the moon under feet as we mounted the pillars of the heavens. We had much conversation on the way. I found the angels most tender and lovely beings, so full of instruction and helpfulness; my soul loved them exceedingly.

I felt as though I was acquainted with the heavenly kingdom, for the angels had told me so much. As I would look abroad from the chariot window, the stars could be seen everywhere just as I had always seen them from the earth; I knew then we had not gone beyond the regions of the solar system, so I asked the angel: "Where is heaven?"
"Oh," said he, "it is not far away.

The earth is the first habitation of man, and while he is of the earth he is earthly in his nature. Heaven is the future and everlasting habitation of all those who have prepared themselves for it. You will soon find that my words are true that heaven is not far away. Your Father’s love and care have provided both these worlds for you.

Your heavenly home is your real home. The earth was only your birthplace, the place of your beginning. But when God gave you eternal life He connected you with all heavenly realms, for He gave you His life which has always been. "Look and see," said he, for I was in the deepest consideration of these things for they meant so much to me now.

I looked abroad; we were just entering a region of bright clouds something like a glorious, glowing, earthly sunset, only far superior. The time had been very brief indeed, but we were actually slowing up in the great suburbs of the eternal kingdom.

"Listen a moment," I said to the angel, "what music do I hear? Is it real or am I in imagination?"

"It is the song of the redeemed in heaven you hear. All the heavenly kingdom is full of music without a discord."

No sweeter music ever fell on my ears. I was perfectly enraptured with delight.
"Are we near the gates of the city?"
"Very near to the portals of paradise," he said. At this the angels bowed their heads and covered their faces with their hands, while I fell flat on my face in the chariot. Stillness reigned in our souls, but deep emotions began to heave in my breast.

I felt I must break the silence by shouting the praises of God. The angels now began to sing with a sweet voice, "Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty! Just and true are all thy ways, thou King of Saints."

I sprang to my feet and for a moment seemed perfectly bewildered with what met my gaze in every direction. The light was so transparent and far exceeding the most perfect day earth ever afforded. Clusters of heavenly flowers were growing everywhere. Groves of beautiful trees loaded with fruit, along with magnificent flowering shrubs beautiful beyond description met my eye in all directions.

Roadways like winding streets arranged with exquisite taste and beauty, were penetrating this pleasure ground of glory. Lovely souls were coming and going, passing and re-passing each other with the salutations and courtesies that heaven only knows.

I found that my vision was greatly improved since being freed from the mortal body — nor did I regret now I was released, for everything seemed to shine with a luster and glow with a brightness I had never known before; and what seemed more remarkable still, was that the sunlight did not aid me in any sense to comprehend things about me, for I knew that at night when all the world were asleep and that it was entirely dark to outward human eyes, yet to me everything shone with a splendor more grand than the brightest noonday earth ever afforded.

I saw distinctly a number of angels about the room, each of which was covered with robes of pure and heavenly light, so gladdening to my soul. I wondered why I could not have discerned them before, even while in the body. The scripture came to me where the prophet said, " The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him and delivereth them. " ( Psalm 34:7 )
From this time I began to feel a strange upward bounding tendency. My spirit felt a mighty pull heavenward as though elastic cords were fastened to all parts of my soul, with the other end reaching into the skies.

Sena and Serva sat weeping by the bedside. I tried to speak to them, but could not arrest their attention. I walked near to them and laid my hand upon their heads, but still they did not comprehend me. They only seemed to weep more bitterly for there seemed to be a soul touch. Then again their tears would dry and they would scan the room as though some voice had been heard, and I felt sure they realized something of my presence without comprehending the truth as to how it was.

The angels now began to sing and oh such sweet music I never heard while in the body. When they had finished the anthem, they said, "Will you now follow us?" When we had stepped outside, I saw the chariot which seemed to be made of light. It was standing still at the threshold. I understood its meaning and the special errand of the angels, and I longed to spring within, as I fairly shouted "Hallelujah," which I ant sure the angels heard, for they quickly said, "Glory to God in the highest."

I tried to say good-bye to my sleeping body, the old home and my two servants when the angels hastened me to a seat with them in a chariot. They again assured me of a safe journey homeward. In a moment more the chariot began to rise with a swift and noiseless motion, and to me with an unknown speed, we were going on our flight toward the eternal mansions.

The Story Begins....as narrated by Seneca sodi

Dinner had just been eaten and I had lain down on the couch for a few moments’ rest. My two servants, Sena and Serva, were busy about the house, when all of a sudden, a blast of a trumpet called us all to the door.

A beautiful chariot of gold and two drivers clothed in white garments were standing very near. Immediately I seemed to fall into a trance and was lost to earthly things for a time. The angels came into the room and urged me to prepare quickly, saying, "For the Lord of the kingdom has need of thee."

I could easily understand their errand and language. I was filled with exultant praise in the thought of immediately going home. Resuming consciousness of earthly things, I quickly arranged with Sena and Serva, who had only seen glimpses of glory in flashes of bright light, but felt the presence of invisible ones about the room, to guard carefully the body, should I leave it behind.

I found myself in a semi-conscious state, and saw a number of holy beings about my bed, for I felt so weary, I had lain down. I had momentary thoughts flung across my mind: "Is this really death? Am I really going to say good-bye to worldly things this day? Am I truly in the borderland of eternity? If so, blessed victory!"

I felt, now creeping into my soul, the raptures of eternal joy — oh, such light and visions of glory which were granted to me then! Spiritual essences and things began to loom up before me with great vividness to my comprehension. I seemed to be passing out into a large place where a new order of things was existing. With one last effort to see and speak to my servants, I barely could say, "Good-bye," as I saw their anxious eyes looking into mine. I heard some broken sentences and tried to explain, when I thought they were far out of hearing, and I closed my eyes only to open them in an eternal day.

The next thing I observed was that I was standing in one corner of the room looking with deep interest upon my body, which was lying in quiet repose upon the bed. I cannot well describe the strange yet joyful feelings of my soul on finding myself released from the body. I came forward and stood beside the bed and with feelings mingled with joy and pity I said to my body, "I feel sorry to leave you behind, but you are still mortal and will be till the resurrection."
I next saw three angels with me who seemed busy with some peculiar embalming process for my body, which I did not understand. They spoke to me most pleasantly and said: "Be not afraid. We are come as your escorts to your heavenly home, the light of which shines so brightly upon you now."

How quickly I thought of that scripture: " The angels are all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation! ( Hebrews 1:14 ) I soon came to realize that physical eyes cannot see spiritual beings nor comprehend their movements except by some miraculous intervention; but that spirits can comprehend both matter and spirit.

.........................................................................

OK before I drop the chapters of this great 40days heavenly visitation of Seneca sodi I know many people will be wondering. ..."can a living soul see heaven"?...well the Answer is a big yes and here is a list of people who actually had visions of heaven while still very much alive as recorded in the scriptures....

1. Jacob dreamed of “a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven....And, behold, the Lord stood above it” ( Gen. 28:12, 13 ).

2. Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel...saw the God of Israel ( Ex. 24:9,10 ).

3. Moses saw the back of God ( Ex. 33:23 ).

4. Micaiah “saw the Lord sitting upon his throne” ( 2 Chron. 18:18 ).

5. Isaiah “saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple” ( Isa. 6:1 ).

6. Ezekiel saw “the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and...the likeness as the appearance of a man above it” ( Ezek. 1:26 ).

7. Ezekiel again had a similar vision ( Ezek. 10:1 ).

8. Daniel “beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit” ( Dan. 7:9 ).

9. Stephen “looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God” ( Acts 7:55 ).

10. Paul wrote that he “knew a man” (likely himself), who was “caught up to the third heaven” ( 2 Cor. 12:2 ).

11. John “was in the spirit; and behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne” ( Rev. 4:2 ).

It is very vital to note that God specifically promised to pour out his spirits to us in the last days and even more people will see clear visions....

◄ Acts 2:17
"'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.

So as you can see...what you are about to read is not a made believe or a figment of Disney land imagination but a vivid and 200% realistic heavenly visit and this will open your eyes to the fact that this earth with all its beauty is nothing compared to what awaits us in paradise and the need to strife to be part of this kingdom with unequivocal match.

I chose to create this thread in the romance section due to the large viewership and most importantly,because it is more than a religious thread and far above any romantic thread but one that reveals the greatest love Jehovah has for us humans.

This is a thread every one must read whether you are a Muslim or Christian because in heavenly kingdom, there are neither Muslims nor Christians but what we have are those who have been redeemed by the precious sacrificial blood of Jesus christ and no matter the religion you practise on earth,as long as you believe in the cruxifiction of Jesus and accept that he actually died to redeem you from sin and eternal death,then you will have a place in paradise where you will live forever in unimaginable opulence and grandiose.

Near the turn of the 20th century, God gave Seneca Sodi the glorious experience of spending forty days in Heaven. This thread will challenge your life and give you hope and encouragement to set aside all hindrances and press on into the glory of God.

As he relates his experiences to Elwood Scott, you will feel as though you are right with him, seeing the many different scenes of the Paradise, escorted by King David. You will wonder at the glory and immensity of what God has prepared for us.

Your mind and heart will be enlarged as you look into a world beyond the veil and knowing that it will be worth it all!

I will write this great thread bit by bit for deep assimilation and comprehension and I believe that it will be the most fascinating thread you have ever come across on nairaland.

Let's get started...

ImaIma1:
No matter how big your wedding is, there will be bigger weddings. Just do what you want and damn the consequences and reactions. At the end if the day, big or small, you are married.

Wise words

leej:
It seems like a funny story , but this is a serious issue that I have been worried about.

As early as when I was 15 years old I have always experienced married women chasing me.

It started from my neighbor's wife at the age of 15. She would always want me to come over and play at her place (at first I thought she was just been nice) until she touched me wrongly. She would always want to kiss me and make me touch her boobs. I stopped going to their house because I felt helpless when she kissed me and I couldn't stop her and I didn't want to be in that position ever again.

It got so real when I got admission into the University at the age of 16. I was approached by my female lecturer whom I know she would definitely be married.She told me I was handsome and smart, I was happy to get such compliment from her. She offered to drop me off at the school gate which I accepted. On getting to the gate she requested she drop me off at my house, I didn't feel comfortable about it but she insisted. We got to my street and she parked. She requested for my phone contact and requested we meet at a guest house the next day after lecture. I refused and she was not too happy about it. I got down form the car and she drove off. The next day she saw me in class was was acting strange. I couldn't even look in the eyes. I was so uncomfortable throughout her lecture. After the class, she called for me in her office, which I knew I must go. I got there, met another female lecturer in her office ( They were close friends) because she was comfortable telling me that I refused her proposal in front of her. I pleaded with her to let me be and she said okay that if that is my wish she would let me go and not disturb me anymore but I should just know the kind of opportunity I just missed.

A week later, I saw her friend ( the older lady in her office) who was much more younger than she is but also married. She called me up ( she recalled my name so well ) and she told me not to mind my lecturer that she would help me talk to her that she won't disturb me and she would not temper with my grades as long as I start hanging out with her and promised to take good care of me (from Frying pan to Iron pot).

I couldn't help it, I was too young to handle all that pressure so I informed my parents who didnt think twice and told me that I am nit going back to that school. ( That was how I dropped out)

The next year I got admission into a polytechnic, where I found peace for about a year. The second year was another drama with one of my Female lecturer (She was much more old than the former) she had very beautiful long grey hair and was very smart. I had always admired her hair and looks but not to the extent of wanting anything to do with her. ( Everybody admires her hair and look). Fortunate and unfortunate for me, I caught her eyes and she called me up. To cut the long story short, she asked me out and I refused with style. This time I was wise enough not to inform my parents ( I was going to handle the situation). I didnt give her a straight answer ..I didnt say Yes nor No, I just played along and became her friend. She calls for me and I answer her but I always try to avoid her inviting me to anywhere. I was able to meet her beautiful daughter who just traveled down from UK for her hols. I was so close with her that i told her "instead of me dating her why can't she just allow me date her daughter" she would just smile but I knew that smile meant you are not getting off so easily. It got to a time she started inviting me over to her house and all I did was to promise to come and failed her not knowing she had other plans for me. She caught me by the balls by giving me a carryover I can never forget my score (19/100). My eyes almost popped out when I saw the result. I rushed down to her office and complained to her and she said in her words " You think you can say no to my proposal and go scout free? ). I had to rewrite the paper the next year and luckily she was asked to take another course. I got 89/100 by the way!!

Fast forward to recent time...

I think I have a sign board on my forehead saying "Married women holla me" ..I can count over 30 married women whom have disturbed me over the years. If I didnt know better I would think I was being set up. Recently, most of the married women on my matter are my ex who don't want to give up on me. I tell them things that will make any woman stay away from you forever but it doesn't work on them. Some would get angry insult me and tell me I feel too proud but chat me up months later like nothing never happened.

I go as far as lying to them that I am married too and I dont have time for them but I get replies like " that is the fun part none of us will feel guilty" or "It makes me want you the more" or "You know I love you more than your wife (weird I know but I get it ) etc.

I don't know if I am the problem or they are.

But how come cos you no too fine...as for me I'd not for Jesus I for don die of woman palava tey tey....odiegwu

Explorers:
Some scientist are with and some are against the fact that this can lead to rise in sea level after melting.

They claimed that the break off has claimed 10% of the ice shelf and that can hasten more glacial flowing into the ocean.



But to me personally, i believe that this can cause the ocean level to rise.

Just like filling a bucket with water, then drop 5kg of ice into it.

Its going to spill now abi


Pictured is what normal iceberg looks like, its floating and about 80% of the mass is underwater.

Now imagine something that's over over a trillion-tonne, 5800km2

The water level remains the same when the ice melts.

The Ice displaces an amount of water equal to its own weight. Since water expands when it freezes so when it unfreeze it will regain the displaced water.

What about countries with popes as leaders and their laws are controlled by the church?

As long as the law is that of the land...end of story.

This isn't my moniker but i couldn't help but reply.

Firstly, marriage is not all about the couple. It also involves the couple's family. I want a moderate but classy wedding. You can't tell them not to invite their friends. As for me, 200 guests will do

Secondly, the economy is bad. So, i want my trad and court wedding on Friday while the white on Saturday. I love beautiful rings, infact, that is my priority. Economic recession should not affect the ring o...maybe about 100to150k. I don't mind renting gown. Nice Event hall + decor for 200 people... Dont know the price, estimate of 200k. The cake for white and trad(a family friend of mine charges about 70k for it). Food, drinks and snacks is there. The trad clothes, wedding gown, suit etc...

Finally... A minimum estimate for both trad, white and court wedding is 1.2 million. This is just my opinion.

Honestly I just think this white wedding and trad wedding are flimsy and totally unnecessary.

Have a small family get together or bride price presentation to satisfy customs and tradition....proceed to registry and have a moderate reception.

tosyne2much:
The advantage of court marriage over church marriage is that it legally binds you by law. Church marriage on the other hand only binds you spiritually

So many misconceptions. ..

Church marriage was never mentioned in the bible likewise was traditional marriage....the only marriage recognized by the bible is marriage according to the laws of the land which is registry so the only wedding that truly binds spiritually is registry wedding....quote me anywhere.

egbon create a thread about guys style of wedding

With due respect to the guys,the wedding day Is predominantly for the lady cos left to many guys we will not bother with any wedding ceremony and infact we won't mind if a lady just packs into our house so I guess that thread won't be necessary cos a wedding ceremony is majorly for the lady...My personal opinion.

Togzin here is my wattsup number o8o23146o46

reminiscing:
My dear, Low key wedding is just it. Money should be reasonably utilized so we won't go bankrupt after the wedding. In fact, I intend to do my T.M and white wedding on the same day to safe cost of cooking for two days and all.

Please you ladies should include a figure so that we will have a better idea.

I created this thread cos of the erroneous mindset of many guys who believe that Nigerian ladies are freaks of lavish wedding and I also have that mindset so let's have a cost figure and not just description.

Ishilove:
500-700k

Makes sense.

Ishilove:
Sisi, it is well

Ishibabe I need a speculative figure....no one plans a wedding blindly but all plans conform with the available budget.

SleekHoyeen:
Gosh! You read my mind Sis! #lowkeybutclassy

I tire for these ladies o...they are just describing the type of wedding they want with specifying a speculative monatary budget in figures...

Even a wedding with 50gyests could cost millions so let's know the amount in figures biko. .

Lalas247:
Small wedding .. church preferably need to Get that blessing from God
Wedding dress by Vera Wang .. ring must be yellow Diamond oooooooo
Always wanted to have the reception at Dubai nice clean n Classy
Then it's owambe party ( have to keep the family happy we must spray money like kilode part of tradition)
Might even be a two day event

That's it really

In other words...what monatary budget are you looking at?

Lanretoye:
that's deserving for most ladies but as a Yoruba lady u know the bulk of the amount should come from the ladies family...if I may ask,what percentage of that amount can u afford as you are now.
well I believe that's what ladies desire before 25,and at almost 27 you wouldn't mind a ceremony of about 1.5 then at 30 or fair above,your family should be willing to give u out for just an introduction of less than 100k.any moment after that,a sharp guy will just impregnate you and you are parking in with him for just accepting to be responsible for it.

Fatal savagery.

sunshineG:
I know I shouldn't be commenting here since i am a guy but any guest of more than 25 or 30 people is too much for me
Where is the money biko

I guess you may have to seek your fiancee consent cos it's her day.

selflessmaya:
i dont ever want to have a traditional marriage, too many unfamiliar ppl that i'm expected to shine teeth with and i refuse to have to pretend on my day to be so thrilled to see ppl idgaf about. so there...
i dont want a white wedding either cos it's very unnecessary in my opinion, i just dont get it.
my ideal wedding is a small court marriage with immediate family and very close friends present maximum 7 from both sides, total of 14, after the papers are signed, we'll have the reception at sunset till dawn at a private beach(with prior reservation of course), nothing tacky, very classy setting, good wine, good weed, good indie music, beautiful tall cake(this, i'm very particular about, my wedding cake must be outright stunning), we'll toast to life, get high, dance, make small talk and just enjoy ourselves. in the morning, we part ways with the guests and leave for our honeymoon. no extravagant gifts expected from my guests, we're just gonna make very good memories and let them be happy for us.

I believe ylu are a lady so i hope you communicate this to your partner cos many guys usually conclude that many ladies want expensive wedding ceremonies.

I don't know if lalasticlala or mynd44 will find this interesting cos Naija guys need to have a clue.

funmisticqueen:
My white wedding, 300 people, 150 from each side, i will rent a wedding gown or design myself. For the white wedding reception, 2 million should cover it maximum, 2.5 million, for court just me and my bae, like 200k should cover it. For traditional too, also 300 people mostly family and friends, 2 million should cover it. This is my minimum standard, we will both achieve this without any wahala after or soaking garri during honeymoon. I am hustling, you had better be set..

That's about N5m for one day event

thesuave10:
How the fuckkk is that intelligence. It's just like she said it is. It's privacy

Her reference.

But how come none of the ladies mentioned any estimate in monatary value?
That is the vital thing cos even a low key wedding could gulp millions.
