If you think your job, daily bread, fun, that ends with you is more important that the collective destiny of all black people all over the world, ....think again!

I'm amused at our selfishness and myopia that have brought us to where we are as blacks in the comity of nations.

I'm shocked at the self-centredness of anyone who doesn't seem to realize that injury to one is injury to all.

Ok.

Man's inhumanity to man.

How blacks hate black more than whites hate whites.

So a guy here recently published a piece claiming no sex before marriage is a scam..

At first, I was thinking he's just one of those loose guys who only justify sexual immorality because they can't be human enough to gain mastery over their bodies, and who can't control themselves and are slaves to their urges.. But I was shocked that this guy was attempting to justify an unholy act like premarital sex, with the Holy Scriptures..

I was like, JESUS, this guy must be stopped!

First of all, if you check the guy's profile, you will discover he is selling sex tools and products. Therefore, he is only trying to pervert people's mind so they could comfortably patronise him. He is aware that the Holy Words of God is a threat to the sales of his immoral sex tools, hence, he is trying to twist the scriptures for his own dirty motives.. If only he knew the danger of what he just did! Don't forget that the devil too is a master at twisting the Bible!

Nevertheless, please discard his claims.. The Word of God stands sure.. Premarital sex is a sin, because it is contrary to God's Will. God's Will is that all sexual experiences should be shared between a married man and his female wife only, in the safe circle of their marriage.

The Bible says in Hebrews 13:4: "Marriage is honorable among all, and (let) the marriage bed (be) undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge"

It means, those that indulged in premarital sex will not only hurt themselves (STDs, unwanted pregnancies, etc), but will attract punishments to themselves (and even the devil will have a chance to afflict them).

God Himself said: "...the sexually immoral...shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death" Revelation 21:8

The guy even claimed that during the time of Mary and Joseph, virginity wasn't highly regarded. That's a lie from the pit of hell! Their society was a very conservative one, and women caught indulging in sexual immorality are usually stoned to death!

The guy also claimed that you can sleep around because "God only sees a clean and a pure heart". Can you imagine! If you wear a clean white dress, won't you avoid anything that can get it stained?

In conclusion, although the world is currently vehemently corrupt (as we are in the last days), I want you to know that there are still many of us (Sons and Daughters of YAHWEH) still obeying Him and living lives of total purity. And guess what? We are happy and blessed. We are enjoying our marriages, and raising godly and responsible children.

God bless your for this awesome intervention.

SpaceX in collaboration with NASA and the United States have sent a 2-man crew to the International Space Station.

Here's my take:

1. The United States has recorded a ground-breaking achievement in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic. US recorded one of the highest deaths but this did not deter them from reaching this height.

2. Nigerian politicians have messed up our country. That's a fact! I can't emphasize more on this.

3. Nigerian youths will crowd this forum to bash and castigate the government for not making us great. 50-60% of youths blame the government for joblessness but the same youths refuse to study relevant courses in the tertiary institution that will earn them a chance to Excel in life or contribute to the advancement of the nation. The scientists at NASA are engineers, physicists, mathematicians, economist's, chemists, aerospace scientists, etc. Even Elon Musk himself is a renowned physicist.

NIGERIAN youths will earn degrees in religious and cultural studies, social studies, theatre arts, pre-primary education, etc. and still come to Nairaland to blame the government.

My argument is not one-sided in case anyone wants to bash me. I admit that we have a silly government, but the citizens, especially youths are equally silly.

Some folks here claim that the US is a sane clime and wish to fly there at the slightest opportunity. Days ago, the same folks bashed the sane clime for the extrajudicial killing of Floyd.

The United States and other advanced nations welcome people who have something to offer. For now, a great percentage of Naija youths really have nothing to offer.

Let's try to build ourselves.

We Africans must get our priorities right. The world has since left us in one spot.

African leaders must be re-educated that the world is essentially not a global village wherein in you've got friends and trusted well-wishers in a communal setting --with the UN as our village amphitheatre where the elders periodically meet to discuss 'the way forward for the good of all.

Enough is enough!

The international community is essentially a jungle in which the winner strives to take all. There are no emotions, but protocols are set up to reflect great culture of mutual understanding and respect. It's not so in the real world.

Wake up, African leaders and the lead!

You must always suspect external actors as desperate invaders, usurpers, and sharks, who would stop at nothing to achieve their capitalistic goals even if it means having to destroy their economic friends tactically.

You've got no permanent friends but interests. Be woke! Save the continent!

Eternal suspicion, and not mere vigilance, was the price of freedom, as Thomas Jefferson said.

BobbyHammar:
Anybody who still believe in the scam of no sex till marriage needs to get their head checked. If only you know how many marriages have been destroyed or are still suffering because of this, you will never think of falling for such a scam.

What baffles me is those who keep going to church but yet don't know anything about bible and will keep deceiving themselves that sex before marriage is a sin (WHICH YEYE SIN).

Many will say it's formication but they don't even know the true meaning of fornication as referred to in the bible. Take for example when Joseph was dating Mary, yes we agree she was still a virgin because it was their own decision not to have sex yet but how many people realized that there were other young women that existed then as well. Many had boyfriends too and some had sex with their boyfriends while some didn't because Mary wasn't the only virgin.

The bible never condemned those that had sex with their boyfriends before marriage but it was just the divine choice of the Father to select a virgin rather than a lady that had sex already.

Let's stop all these brohaha low African mentality of calling sex before marriage a sin. God only sees a clean and a pure heart, not who had sex when or how. You all should better respect yourself and save the doctrine of marriage by testing the waters to ensure you are ready to sail on that water for the rest of your life. Not after marriage you start looking for divorce because penis is too big or too small or maybe Virgina is too tight or too wide or its always one minute sex.

Haba.

Matthew 7:15-20
King James Version


15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.



Proverbs 13:20
King James Version

20 He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

2 Timothy 4:3-5 KJV

3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

The bulk of the wealth of a child of God is invested in heaven.
1. The believer knows enough to not hold on to it but to use it for the specific purpose for which God provided it - the disobedience of which leads to one's deviation and destruction

2. The believers knows that it constitutes distraction when it gets amassed up to a point -- everyman has a price, they say**

3. Such a believer knows well not to be a stagnant water that stinks.

The wealth we have is essentially not ours, we're merely treasurers or conduits through whom God blesses others.

"He that watereth shall be watered also himself."-Proverbs 11:25

And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
Matthew 19²⁴

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6:19-21 (KJV)


CHASING WEALTH IS IDOLATRY
Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:

25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

My home perfectly served as our church today. And when the churches are reopened, we'll not forsake the gathering of the brethren:

First of all , The Reporter Has Been Released!

A Whole lot of things are Happening sooo Quick all over the World.. People don't seem to understand at all..

The Behavior of the policeman on that young was Bad and very Wicked.

The Reaction of Burning and Looting by our brothers over there is not supposed to be..

The Protest which came up as a Result of George is a good one but Burning down places and looting shops is a NO!

There is a War on this Earth but it's not a War you fight Physically...

The devil enters people to fulfill his will..

We are at a period where the Globalist/Nwo folks are doing everything they can to push their agenda against Humanity!

This is a Time when we all need to be Spirtually Alert and Spread the Love of JESUS irrespective of whatever or Whoever..

Let's not use our own hands to destroy ourselves! The Globalist/Nwo/ one world government Folks are out to take over..



We need to be Alert!
We need to be Our brother/Sisters Keeper
We need to tell all on the need to have JESUS CHRIST.

Peace cannot be Gotten by Killing , burning and all that..
The World has no peace to give

The Media has no peace to Give.

Only JESUS CHRIST, The Prince of Peace will give us peace...

Let's Spread JESUS !

Thank you.
This is Wisdom!

No need to get too emotional. Justice can be secured through better ways.

We Africans and members of other races that identify with us can sustain a peaceful protest till the whole world's attention is secured.
That's what will put an end to the racial prejudices.

Seeing so many comments indicating how many people condone these acts of indiscipline and abuse of office shows how we always end up having bad leaders in Nigeria.

Only one of these 16 charges is enough to drown public servant in sane climes.

I'm really amused by the absurdity of corruption encouragement.

emkz:
I will summarize the 16 points to you incase you did not read, inter alia, you read cursorily: Dr Adesina is alleged to have abused his position by violating ethical guidelines in the recruitment and promotion of staff, disrespected internal probationary rules, condoned sexual harassment by his protégé, recruited unqualified staff, favouritism, duplicated company roles and probably wasted banks funds on unproductive concerns.

If you recall Dominique Strass Kahn, former IMF Chief; he was accused of ethical misconduct by sexually harassing a hotel maid and he resigned. If you worked in an international organization, you'd know that ethical misconduct or condoning ethical misconduct is as terrible as financial misconduct.

Gbam!

You're such a sound intellectual.

Thank you!

The way that cop intentionally snuffed out the life of that black man out made sure he was doing it makes me feel this is another Democrat party operation to win black votes since the gaffe of Biden this week... There is nothing those liberals can't do

I gather they have all been dismissed

P.S

You can see how pictures of the killer cop with Trump Maga hat has surfaced now ...this is another Democrat organized Nonsense

We need more intelligent people like you on this platform. It's called false flag - an old tactic that's still very effective today.

The dems have been loosing black supporters lately due to the successful efforts of a woke few to enlighten them.

Facts have surfaced that blacks have had it better under Trump than under Obama. Ask your black friends in the States to be honest they'll come bare.

The people must come to the point of refusing to believe everything they see on mainstream media. There are very powerful forces messing with our minds through the media. The nature of our reactions to their news products is their ultimate goal.

If you want to know the real truth, don't be too emotional or dogmatic.

This senseless and irrational - see-me-a-Trump-supporter-killing-a-black-man - is obviously not what it seems.

There's also gospel entertainment that usually give glory not to God. They're designed for people to have fun, while they make the entertainers and stars rather than ministers.

We must be careful of such songs aren't inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Thanks you are the bomb

You're most welcome.

There are certain exercises and food regimens that will surely help.

I can't remember many of them, you could Google it up.

If your jump can't put finger on your ceiling jump jump jump everyday until...well, your finger may not reach that particular ceiling but you'll definitely growing taller due to the constant stretching.

Sleep early: height increases faster while we're not on our feet; sit down when you can. Make sure you stand up every 20 minutes to maintain a health body as well.

Forget about genetics and work on yourself. It's being achieved by many people.

But if you still like your height, be charming, loveable, charismatic, self-less, indisposable.
Trust me, nothing is more charming!
The concept of good height will always bow to the timeless concept of being irresistibly useful to mankind.

Lagos IGR is more than enough to cater for its needs. By the way, there's oil in Lagos, Ondo State.

Needless to mention Dangote Mega-refinery in Ikorodu-Lagos where oil from Southsouth will prefer to refine their crude oil.

I can't patronize China's phones again because that's one of the ways to empower a country desperately trying to literally colonize Nigeria and the whole of Africa.

Secondly, their products especially those targeted at African markets are in laughably substandard.

Thirdly, they don't use these phones in their own country.

Fourthly, for being responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands by allowing Covid19 to break out and ravage the world.

We're all entitled to our opinions.

For those equating money to success:

Some people are so poor that the only thing they have is money.


Money is not equal to success.


You may not need more than N1,000,000 as cash in hand to fulfill your own destiny...that doesn't make you a failure to your maker.

But if you go out of your way to seek money for self-aggrandizement and personal pleasures only, you're a failure.

If you're blessed with wealth BY GOD, it's not for you only, but to pass most of it along... that is true SUCCESS. You're just a treasurer for God. But if you hoard it, you're like a stagnant water that will definitely stink.

Becoming a slave to money is not worth it.

Let's first correct our belief system

light099:
Commendable but, If every individual throughout the world who distributed some things to few people in their neighborhoods all come here to drop it on FP, will there be any space left to post better things? Especially when the hidden intention of such post is obvious, as usual.

The way some people bombard nairaland and FP with trivial news all for the sake of chestbeating is alarming. I think the mods have to regulate this thing, it's beginning to suck.
These people are already abusing FP with unworthy news all for the purpose of bigotry.
I think this forum is not existing for the purpose of promoting tribal chestbeatings from some people who're fond of petty show-off.

Thank you.

High time we evolved at least for the sake of posterity. The people of the future rely on us to discuss thiings that will ensure their welfare and security.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is deceptively cloaked in a mantle of selfless philanthropy. But the reality is that they have used their resources to deviously embed themselves into nearly every aspect of global public health.

A word is enough for the wise.

As adults, when a stranger gives you a certain gift, you must be grateful.

However, this gifts keeps coming.

For instance, the gift is toothpaste that you can't sell, but must only use...while your number concern is malnutrition.
You eat only once a day and that single meal is low in nutrients.

The kind man knows your true needs even as you're obviously malnourished but insists that you continue to brush your teeth with his expensive toothpaste which can't be sold.

Africans must think.

Nothing on the international arena is free. You must manipulate the unsuspecting to grab what you can in smooth ways.
It's called 'raison d'etat'.

The world is truly at war - economic war... while some have even deeply more serious agendas.

If you see a successful capitalist who becomes philanthropist, you've almost lost the game, especially if you're the beneficiary.
