Gptech:
Ooooo, maybe thats why they have been delaying the global stable rom. Just be patient.

Ok then

Gptech:
Concerning your battery, as it been good in performance at any particular time? Because poor battery performance is the major con of the Helio x10 processor.

It was only good when I was in miui7 but since d day I enter 8...so bad

GrandMufti:
Did you do a factory reset after the last update? Miui 8.0.2.0 was actually bad in terms of battery until I updated to 8.0.5.0. So for now I suggest doing a factory reset and using it for a few days.

Ok then

Gptech:
Do you realize you rom is Chinese rom? The only way out is to unlock the bootloader. Changing to any global rom is actually considered a downgrade.

I've been finding it hard to unlock bootloader bro

GrandMufti:
Your phone is OK na. What else do you want? Since you can access it

Battery is bleeped up bro

adewasco2k:

GrandMufti:
If you still have a copy of the developer rom that worked, you need to do a clean install. There is a thread on the forum that shows how to wipe a phone and do a clean install.

Just relax it will worked. Read the flashing guide well before downloading the required drivers.

Christians Are God’s Family On Earth

Eph. 2:8-22

To be a Christian is not to be born into a Christian family or given a Christian name. Rather it is to have a genuine encounter of salvation in Christ and by grace and faith in Christ. Such a person was once living contrary to God’s word, ways and will; was a stranger to the commonwealth of Israel and was without God. But at salvation, he or she is brought near to God and automatically becomes fellow citizen with the saints and members of the household of God (v. 19). Those who have made such decision are now members of God’s family on earth and must relate with one another as family members. Are you part of this family or you are just pretending to be one? God is giving you another opportunity to really belong to this great family on earth.



Point of Emphasis: Genuine salvation is the pre-requisite for membership of God’s family

Prayer Point: Lord, help me not to be a black sheep in God’s family.

GrandMufti:
How were you able to do this and which specific rom did you use?

Please tell us the history of your phone, the initial rom, the developer rom you ported to, and the stable Rom you reverted back to. Are you sure you device is mediatek?

Miui7 was d default rom,I ported to 8 even though it bricked my device and on the long run the battery has been draining and I don't like it, so I first decided to port to developer rom using update app and after doing it I had issues with contacts thinking it was d rom,I ported back to stable rom( still miui8) using the same updater app and after, d issues with contact hadn't changed so after searching and doing all what I could do, I was able to recover them from MI cloud.

I complained about battery ish and someone told me to go to developer rom which I've been trying since and also,I created a thread on miui forum about unlocking bootloader and d first reply I got was to go to developer rom. D same developer rom I used is still d same one giving me couldn't verify update package and yes I'm using xiaomi redmi note 3 mtk. All roms used are official roms from their site

GrandMufti:
There is no official global stable Rom for rn3 mediatek since it's Chinese. You will have to stick with the Chinese rom or use the eu rom. I'm not sure if the sd Kenzo rom will work

Let me try the kenzo., please link

Gptech:
I think its the mtk version, he has gone through something like this before.

Yh

GrandMufti:
What version of rn3 do you have? You can't use the same rom for fastboot method and updater method. Kenzo for fastboot method and recovery rom for updater.

Rn3 mtk.. Please link to the kenzo rom

Gptech:
You used the updater app?

I don't know of any method again... Tried using flash tool,I was getting error

Gptech:
You used the updater app?

Learn From Joshua’s Family

Jos. 24:1-15

This was the valedictory speech of Joshua to the Israelites. As old as he was, he recounted vividly how God started with Israel to the point of dividing their inheritance for them in the Promised Land. He then advised and encouraged them that they should not be ungrateful by forsaking the Lord, but they should rather serve the Lord in fear, sincerity and truth and to put away all foreign gods. He then stated that if it seems evil in their sight to serve God, then they can choose whom they will serve but as for him and his household they will serve the Lord. What a glorious testimony. He was sure that his wife and children are with him in the faith. What about you? Are all your family members already serving God in sincerity and truth? Think and work on this.



Point of Emphasis: As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

Prayer Point: Lord, save me and every member of my family and help us to serve You till the end of our lives on earth.

BACKGROUND

The family is one of the basic units of the larger society. It is not independent of the society but constantly interacts with the society. Many at times, the society introduces some negative vices or influences that are at variance with healthy family living, and thereby negatively impacts on the family. This week’s lesson wants to consider some of those negative societal impacts on the family so as to be able to avoid them in our family.



NOTES ON THE TEXT

PART 1: ECONOMIC IMPACT (GEN. 2:18-25)

Right from the beginning of creation and of marriage institution between the first man and the first woman, the purpose or pattern God intends for marriage partners is to cleave or join together in all spheres of life. The Bible says “therefore shall a man leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh”. (Verse 24). ‘To be joined to his wife’ indicates living together, eating together, sleeping together, sharing each person’s feelings and aspirations together, talking together, and many other things that can forge genuine cleaving together.

However, looking at the society today, one discovers that there are lots of economic factors that have negatively impacted on the family and have not allowed the cleaving or joining together of the couple to be possible. Such economic factors have reared their ugly heads in the area of husbands job not located in the town where the couple settles down in, or either the husband or the wife get transferred immediately after the wedding, making the couple to be temporarily separated and only to see each other either by weekend or every forthnight or once in a month or more depending on the distance and the risk involved in frequent traveling. In other instances, it may be the loss of job of the husband who is supposed to be the bread winner of the family. Also the husband may ruin the business of wife through buying things on credit from the woman or borrowing money from the wife’s capital without paying back.

These and many other economic factors have negative effects on many families and if not properly handled, can lead to the disintegration of the family. Couples need God’s wisdom and intervention to be able to overcome any economic challenge that may confront their family so that they will be what God intends for them.



PART 2: TECHNOLOGICAL IMPACT (ISA. 11:9; DAN. 1:17; 12:4; HAB. 2:14)

Many prophets of the Old Testament have prophesied about the fact that in the end time knowledge shall increase. For instance, Isaiah prophesied “They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea” (Isa. 11:9). Daniel also in a strange land admitted that it is God who gave him and the three Hebrew boys knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom and that made Daniel to have understanding in all visions and dreams. He also affirmed that in the last days knowledge shall be increased (Dan. 1:17; 12:4)

One major area where this prophecy has been fulfilled in our world today is in the area of Information Communication Technology (ICT). With the advancement of technology, every group of people has evolved from being mono-cultural to being multi-cultural. The world has become a global village with the influx of foreign cultures influencing and sometimes swallowing the indigenous culture. Unfortunately, it is the ungodly part of foreign cultures that indigenous people always imbibe.

Technology is good if it is used in God’s way. For example, one can reach thousands of internets users with the gospel just by posting the gospel message on facebook or youtube or by sending e-mail to people. One can communicate easily with anybody in any part of the world within few minutes, etc, However, many also use it in a wrong way and this has impacted negatively on the family. For instance, youths are tempted away from the faith through cultures imbibed as they watch television, browse the internet to watch pornographic pictures, online dating, wasting of precious time on the internet for unproductive activities, etc, through which many people learn negative and violent behaviours that make them to become uncontrollable for the parents. This has made the family to be seriously under attack by this environmental factor.

Christian parents must understand this truth and do everything possible to curb their children from falling victim of the negative effects of technology. This they can do by they themselves (Parents) living a godly life and being example of believers to the children. They must find considerable time praying for the children by name. they should strive to get their children involved in Christian activities. They should be interested in the kind of programme their children watch on television and the websites they visit on the internet. Children should be taught to recognise and steer clear of godless programmes being offered through the electronic and print media. Parents must be their children’s friends so that the children will feel free to open up to them on their challenges.



PART 3: EFFECT OF WORDLY SYSTEM (JN. 17:9-17; 1 JN. 2:15-17; ROM. 12:1-2)

From the prayer of Jesus for believers in John 17, one discovers that Jesus Himself knew that the world and its system are not suitable for believers. But because He wants believers to continue the work of preaching the gospel, He prayed to the Father to keep them in the world from following the worldly system. But the truth is that a man is always influenced by the environment he lives in by what he sees, hears and smells. Initially, there is always a clear cut distinction between a born again Christian and an unbelievers in the area of dressing, hair do, music, taste and what a person values; however, because of the influence of the worldly systems on believers things have changed.

For instance, how will one describe a sister wearing mini-skirt to Church, brother with sagged trouser on, wedding gown with half of the breast outside for public view, listening to worldly music, watching immoral films on the television, kissing or pecking an opposite sex, hugging all in the name of civilization, etc. All these have impacted negatively on the family and they have to be addressed by the parents and the church for the family to be what God intends it to be on earth.

CONCLUSION

There are many environmental factors that are negatively impacting on the family today. Identify which one is affecting your home and work on it and make your family to be a godly model for others in our corrupt society.

QUESTIONS

Mention some economic factors that can affect a family.

What are some of the negative effects the economic factors can engender on the family?

Avoid Bad Friends

1 Cor. 15:33-34

Another environmental impacts on the family is the negative influences of peer-groups pressure on the children. Many Christian children have unbelievers as friends in school, who teach them wrong values. And in their own “foolishness” these children think that their friends are wiser than their parents and, therefore, heed the advice of their friends than that of their parents. Once your children start having friends, parents have the responsibility of guiding them into choosing godly friends and discouraging them from moving with children of doubtful characters. Know that children are easily influenced by those they move with if not checkmated on time.



Point of Emphasis: Be not deceived, evil communication corrupt good manners.

Prayer Point: Lord, help me to separate from all those who negatively influence me to do evil.

Flee Adultery And Fornication

1 Cor. 6:18-20; 1 Thess. 4:1-8

One of the negative impacts of environmental factor affecting the family is wrong use of sex. Many married coupled engaged in extra-marital sexual affairs with opposite sex who are not their rightful spouse. Many unmarried singles are also engaged in pre-marital sex even among Christians and they do not see anything wrong in it. Know that anyone who engages in such an act has destroyed the sanctity of the family and has broken the marriage vow. You must repent, confess to your spouse and start building a strong family. As youth, be determined to keep yourself for your rightful husband or wife, let no one despise your youth.



Point of Emphasis: Abstain from all appearance of evil (1 Thess. 5:22)

Prayer Point: Lord, help me not to fall into sexual sin. I will not pollute my destiny and my family.

Tell me y I won't buy xiaomi again and over again? My phone fell down last week, I mean, it fell down to the extent that d side was opened, maybe even bent.

Don’t Learn The Way Of The World

Jer. 10:1-10

God, through Prophet Jeremiah, was giving advice to the children of Israel that when they get to the Promised Land, they would see so many side attractions, foreign cultures, lifestyles, strange religions, etc, but they must not learn the way of the Gentiles. Why? This is because worldly customs and fashions are futile and godless (v. 3). They cannot add any value to one’s life but rather deplete one’s life, make one an enemy of God and eventually send the person to hell. Know that all that are in the world – the lust of flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life – are not of the Father. Therefore, don’t copy worldly systems, don’t learn them, be godly and live life that is pleasing to God.



Point of Emphasis: Do not conform to the system of this world.

Prayer Point: Lord, help me to love God and His ways more than anything else.

Gptech:
You are always welcome. You must have started thinking of so many costs, especially in this era of dollar trashing the Naira from all corners.
