Hier: There is a man for every woman and a woman for everyman.
Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all b the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
and God cannot lie
It says male not males and it says female not females, Muslims ladies dress decently and they get married. Even with their coverings, they still get married. I think the church is quiet on this matter and they need to educate boys and girls aright on relationship matters Sir Hier, we need to discuss something sir. |

bardiprecious: the man of God biblically is supposed to join two people in holy matrimony not three,because wen the lady is pregnant she is two she and her unborn child putting on wedding gown standing in front of the alter of God with the man making it 3 people that are being joined....if a lady gets pregnant she should go and give birth after come for marriage blessing.in the church..after all church marriage is not biblical ,the most important thing God is concerned with is the husband to be paying dowry to the father of the girl ,and the father of the girl giving his consent ....any other activities being down after this is our human ceremonies ....be it church or court Chai! Man of God supposed to join Biblically? Can you deliver a Scriptural reference for this? Can you mention a joining example in the Bible? Check thoroughly, you'll find none, none. Church wedding is man's conception. People just chose to spiritualize it. |

mikedimeji: U have spoken well, but do u also see the possibility of this policy of pregnancy test before marriage being carried out by some churches promoting abortion among intending couples. The op does condemn every act of immorality but in a situation where some brethren happens to be a victim of this, is it appropriate for the church to cast them away? The grace of God upon our lives differs, its happening to people (spirit filled christains) either we like it or not. 1 Corinthians 10:12 says something interesting. By pregnancy some people are already picturing someone with a protruding belly, mostly not the case, we know pregnancy is pregnancy but in a situation where a pregnancy test is carried out few days before the wedding and the result shows that the lady is 4-6 weeks pregnant and on such ground cancelled the weeding. As much as we think it will help to check mate excesses it can also be a ground for people to consider abortion which make the matter worse. The foundational issue which is fornication must be dealt with, either resulting to pregnancy, abortion or none. One will not expect a believer to abort as a cover up for fornication, sincerely. Rather, repentance should be the focus here and not another sin of murder. Again, the issue with most people is their attempt to gain the acceptance of men. If an intending couple have committed fornication leading to pregnancy, it is only God who can understand and forgive them. If they have received pardon from God, they shouldn't bother about other irrelevant matters. Make peace with God and family. Most churches will not want to join them. It is understandable because they basically want to correct that error and prevent it from spreading. Such a church should do their best to make the couple understand WHY and let them know that God has accepted them if they've sincerely repented. I think the other issue here is, people think Church weddings make them acceptable before God and society. This is NOT true. Churches should ensure that fornication is capitally discouraged, not wedding pregnant people can be a measure to achieve this. Fornication is fornication, as long as family rites and/or legal matters are not settled and either you desire a church wedding or not. Importantly, communicating your intentions must be done in love and clear understanding without rejecting or condemning the recipients. |
Christianity Etc › Re: It Is Unchristian To Deprive A Couple Marriage On Account Of Pregnancy by tommiesyn: 7:14pm On Jul 30, 2017 |
The MAIN issue here is our thought pattern.
People need to understand that Church wedding is man's making. No Scriptural support for this. But the society has been wired to think if you've not had a church/white wedding, you're not married yet. Gross Fallacy! Simply, a church/white wedding is not/was not/will never be a spiritual demand.
Believers need a serious reorientation along this line.
Scripturally, when family consent has been sought and marital rites settled, couples are married, CONFIRMED. No human can join 2 people in marriage, No.
As for joining a pregnant bride, it should be discouraged. Reason is, if allowed or supported, others will see nothing wrong with fornication/sex outside marriage, maybe in the long run. Congregants will feel since it was permitted for couple X, then we can go on. I think this is standard enough. And this exactly is what the church must frown against.
I strongly stand against fornication, strongly. Either it results into pregnancy or not, Sin is sin.
But then, God forgives, if confessed to Him and repented of. A nonpregnant fornicator is not holier than a pregnant one.
I am contrary to Church/White weddings, people need to be emancipated from this stronghold.
Settle family rites, visit the registry to legalize matters and enjoy your marriage. God has blessed you already!
Say NO to fornication by all means Brethren. |
Christianity Etc › Re: What The Bible Really Says About Women Covering Their Head To Church by tommiesyn: 4:49pm On Jul 30, 2017 |
BrainnewsNg: In the Christian community all over the world there have been an age long argument among some denominations over the covering of “head” or “hair” by women when in church or when praying or performing any spiritual activity.
The anchor scripture in the Holy Bible Christians used for this law as written by Apostle Paul is 1 Corinthians 11 : 2 – 16.
Now, let us look at this portions of the bible with KJV and NIV to see if the Bible really restricted women from going to church or performing any spiritual activities with their “head” or “hair” uncovered.
1 Corinthians 11 : 5 -6 "5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. 6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. " - (KJV).
“5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved. 6 For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head." – (NIV)
Again let's look at verses 13 – 15 of the scripture.
“13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered? 14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? 15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering." – (KJV)
“13 Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14 Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, 15 but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.” – (NIV)
From the above scriptures, the Bible made it clear that a woman who performs any spiritual activity with her “head” uncovered have dishonored her head therefore dishonor her creator. Also the hair of a woman is the woman’s glory and the Bible have made it clear that her “hair” is for the covering of her “head”.
My question now is; did the Bible command women to cover their “hair” while praying? NO.
There’s no place in the Bible that says a woman should cover her “hair” while praying. Please note the two English words “Head” and “Hair”. In the scriptures above, the Holy Bible has repeatedly made it clear that a woman should cover her “head” and not “hair”.
The Bible also in verse 16 of the scripture stated clearly that the long hair of a woman is her glory and for the covering of her HEAD.
Therefore, I stronger oppose the believe that it’s wrong for a woman to go to church or pray with her hair uncovered because the Bible never say so.
A Woman can pray to God with her hair open as long her head is covered with her hairs.
Source: http://brainnewsng.com/what-holy-bible-really-says-about-women-covering-their-head-to-church/ 1 Corinthians 11:4-7 [4]A man dishonors his head if he covers his head while praying or prophesying. [5]But a woman dishonors her head if she prays or prophesies without a covering on her head, for this is the same as shaving her head. [6]Yes, if she refuses to wear a head covering, she should cut off all her hair! But since it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or her head shaved, she should wear a covering. [7]A man should not wear anything on his head when worshiping, for man is made in God’s image and reflects God’s glory. And woman reflects man’s glory. Dear ma, covering the head in context means both the "head" structure and the hair. |

Christianity Etc › Re: Share Your Testimony About Holy Ghost Baptism by tommiesyn: 9:31am On Jul 26, 2017 |
GodsMopol: Please explain this aspect, i mean a a bit detailed. Were hands laid and how do you end up speaking. Did they have to say something to you and you repeat the same words. I just want this to be very Comprehensive to readers sir.
What evidence signifies the true baptism of the Holy Ghost. I mean obvious evidence
some believe they have to met some requirements. What do you have to say about that sir. Cause I believe many Christians are mature enough to receive the baptism, but many feel they need to wait some 10days more and stuffes like that to receive the baptism. I can't remember vividly, but he told me to "Receive". and No, I was not told what to say, I didn't repeat anything. The Spirit gave the utterance and I did the speaking. The flow comes by faith as you release your tongue. Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Processes and experiences may differ, but the result will always be the same as long as it is built upon Acts 2:4 (above) and Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. No fake baptism of the Holy Ghost, if it is the Holy Ghost baptism you asked for then that is what you will get. Sometimes, people may be scared of getting fake but there's no fake. Luke 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? People can only feign to have received while they have not. Like I mentioned earlier, tongues is the initial evidence. With time comes power (the ability to do) according to Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Also, one who is filled will start manifesting Christlike attributes, if diligent. Acts 11 explains this. People who feel the need to wait long simply need to be taught. Teachers according to Eph 4:11 have this responsibility. Paul, Cornelius' household and present day examples prove that we can filled once/immediately the desire is there. (of course, Born Again). Glory to Jesus! |
Christianity Etc › Re: Share Your Testimony About Holy Ghost Baptism by tommiesyn: 11:38am On Jul 25, 2017 |
I got filled with the Holy Ghost during my undergraduate days.
I desired that and told my Pastor, I met him later and got filled.
Initially, tongues will flow in short words but with time, if consistently engaged, one grows into prolonged and heavy use. The same principle that applies for human vocabulary.
Prior to being filled, it was quite easy to judge/criticize people but knowledge came with maturity.
All believers ought to be filled with the Holy Ghost. The person of the Holy Ghost is a gift to the entire body of Christ. It is not a function of struggles but right living and right believing. Errors need to be corrected too.
I believe it is easier and more profitable to pray in tongues (in the Spirit) than with understanding.
Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 8:27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
1 Corinthians 14:2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
I strongly believe in the Teaching and Impartation Ministry.
All believers can be filled with the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of tongues because we live in the days of the fulfillment of Joel's prophecy! |

jaszplus12: I'm sorry but there's no place in the bible where law of marriage is given as doctrine ... God made it a cultural thing as long as it does not violate the standards of God. no pastor has right to tell you to follow any laid down principle or rules like you mentioned above. most people REVERENCE pastor more than God. have you checked your Bible to find out what God says about marriage abi you think your pastor knows better. if you like her tell her straight if she likes you great...plan together then for courtesy's sake tell your pastor. if he gets annoyed that you should have told him before making a move then you know its out of selfish reasons he's doing so. he can't make law for God where God has not made any!

Christianity Etc › Re: Informing Your Pastor Before Your Fiancee Is It Ok? by tommiesyn: 3:29am On Jul 20, 2017 |
PrinceElias: I don't see any big deal in informing your Pastor about your intention before taking the step of telling her. it put you on the saver side, unless you have any shady thing to hide. if not, the pastor can take you through what you need to know about her in case thats the church of the sister too and if not, the pastor knows how best to reach the necessary personnels to make sure your pre-marriage dealings go smoothly. and no big deal too in not informing him. If you want to tell her first, tell her. You have done no wrong. You'll live with your spouse, no one else will! If you feel like telling your Pastor first, do so, especially when you know you cannot manage some matters yourself. (You see sometimes, 3rd party involvement at the stage of proposing/asking out may spark some issues like dissuasion, delay, etc) There are no strict rules guiding this, do whatever you're convenient with and let no one judge you. But SIN NOT, Flee from Immorality! |

KardinalZik: The only universities that don't delay in nigeria are the Private Universities. But their level of training is poor sha. Pesin wey make 2:2 for Public Uni na first class material for Private Uni. It is all about the money and hype. This is not absolutely true. Many Private Unis offer quality training and produce competitive graduates. Importantly, most private Universities have distractions eliminated from their plan (off campus accommodation, transportation & cooking), and of course, frustrate students less, unlike the Public ones. A 2.2 in a Public Uni can be a 2.2 or higher in a Private, but certainly not about the money. A right environment to learn or study will almost definitely produce the best performance in students. Don't you see Nigerians abroad making First Class like it's some cheap stuff? Well, Right environment, Low frustration!

Hypocrisy at its peak! 24 too early to marry but too OK to engage in illicit/premarital sex.
& who says a 24 year old cannot be financially independent? Who says he cannot be more responsible in all ramifications than older folks?
Tell me you haven't seen 29+ who are still broke & cannot even manage themselves talk less of maintaining another fellow. & remind me you've not seen -25 who are made already.
Constitutionally, @18, you're considered responsible for your actions and reaction & therefore, you can independently take decision(s)
As long as you're focused & emotionally stable, you can go on. Age is not really a yardstick, it is a thing of the mind.
Many unsuccessful marriages regardless of the couples' age & financial status. If majority of you stay on this viewpoint of yours, it simply implies you won't be getting married, 35-40+ as long as you don't have that BIG money. & your kids will call you Grandpa/ma.
You don't need huge cash flow to settle down, you need an income stream plus a good plan.
It is more of a mentality thing, quit being an idealist & embrace reality. Better are the days of little beginning. Societal expectations should not define your life. |

I can say majority of Kwarans speak Yoruba (70% or more) through different parts of the state (Offa, Omu aran, Oro, Ilorin, Share, etc). Meanwhile, some Ilorin indigenes have Fulani origin, hence, they speak Fulfude too(not sure of the spelling please).
Kogi goes by the same (though with a lesser percentage). Kogi is a mix of several tribes with different languages (Okun, Ebira, Igala, etc). Okuns speak clear Yoruba and dialectal Yoruba too (Okun) through Yagba, Ijumu, Kabba, etc.
I speak "Yoruba Ilorin", "Yoruba Ibolo" and Okun (technically) |
