Foreign Affairs / Re: Saudi Arabia's First Alcohol Store Has Opened In The Diplomatic Quarter by yinkbell: 10:49am On Apr 25
Tetraozonaitera:


grin

Even Orhepta Tonic get am. I dey shack anytime I take am.

Its even used in baking cake.

‭‭1 Timothy 5:23 NIV‬‬
[23] Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.


Many don't read their Bible. They rely on what some fake pastors and prophets say.
The Bible is not against alcohol but being drunk with it. Paul even advised Timothy to take it once in a while for his health. grin

Will you hide under this verse to drink Alcohol?
You don't have same ailment as Timothy did right?

We have many other verses that talk about being drunk. read all through and don't take just one or two verses in isolation.
When you start with just a shot, you graduate into taking several mugs.

We all know how addictive Alcohol could be. In cough Syrup and other medicine, they are of little quantity which can't have harmful effect in the body.

I’ve never heard that version of the story.
My family was a bit close to them.
I’m talking about late 80’s.
That was the popular story.
I could remember one of his Son nearly attack a passerby with cutlass because he threw stone at the Croc just to see it moves.
I could still verify my version of this story from my dad because we never get to talk about it for over 30 years….
It’s a popular story we all knew, there seems to be no reason to verify till this morning when you have a different version.

Anyways, it's been long. It's one of the stories I picked up from the street.
I stand to be corrected.
The pics up there really showed the croc has grown so big. Back in the he days, it's size isn't up to this.

How are you doing my brother from Ibadan?

Ooni ile Dele.
The story was that the Magician turn to Crocodile and sadly wasn’t able to turn back to human.
After several days and many rituals, the man died as a crocodile and sadly had a baby shortly before passing away.
Is the crocodile baby their family member?
That question remains unanswpered.

Are you from Ibadan?
I remember back then, while we're still kids, we used to go and watch the crocodile.
I learnt, the man used to be a soldier; he brought the baby crocodile home from war(possibly Nigeria civil war).
Politics / Re: Junction Improvement Projects: Makinde Gives Free Shops To 700 Traders In Ibadan by yinkbell: 6:13pm On Mar 24
God bless Oyo State.

Meanwhile, Gov. Soludo is a very brilliant fellow.
Just take a look at what he says here, “While we dream about building new cities, if we don’t regenerate the existing ones they will grow up into large chaotic ghettos and society will be in peril.

“Therefore, regenerating urban cities, keeping them clean and green is a herculean task and I am glad that today, Governor Makinde is doing his best.”
Religion / Re: Why Did You Reduce Or Stop Going To Church? by yinkbell: 7:25pm On Feb 18
Ensquare:
I have been praying for healing and it does not come. I stopped going cuz it seems there's no God or God does not answer prayers again

‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭2:24‬ ‭NIV‬‬
[24] “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
https://bible.com/bible/111/1pe.2.24.NIV

I made reference to the Bible passage for you to know that Christ has paid for your healing. Everything is done for you freely in Christ Jesus.
You need to surrender your life to Jesus and Obey His teachings. Being a Church goer does not qualify anyone as a family of God. The moment you give your life to Jesus all his promises in the Bible, He is willing to fulfill them in your life if you believe in his words.

If you are praying to God for healing, quote his words, remind him of his promises and believe you have gotten your result even before you see the answer coming. That's where most folks missed it. They want to have what they are praying for before they believe God has answered them whereas, it is the other way round. You have to believe God has done it and thank him for the answer, then you see results. This is not a Christian science both Bible truth.

‭‭Mark‬ ‭11:24‬ ‭NIV‬‬
[24] Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

https://bible.com/bible/111/mrk.11.24.NIV
You have to believe you have received it, patiently wait for it while thanking him for the answer prayers.
It won't work if we just have the head Knowledge of the Scripture only. We have to have the deep revelation of it. Just like a light is switched on in your room, the light of God's word must shine in your spirit. Once you caught the revelation of those God's word. You will be at peace. Then results will come.
Devil will fight so hard to talk you out of your healing, but if you hold firmly to God's word, confessing it and believing it in your heart. The results will come. 100%•
Stop looking at the symptoms in your body, you may be having and feeling the pains but look away from it. Keep looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. Your healing will surely come. Don't backslide because of this.
Jesus loves you and cares for you.
It doesn't matter what caused your sickness; even if it is your own errors, Christ Jesus has paid for your healing. Just have faith and put your faith to work.
May the Lord God Almighty heal you in Jesus name. Pls, prayerfully seek for a Bible believing Church and join them in worshipping Almighty God.
Peace be unto you.
Religion / Re: The First Time He Took A Cigarette by yinkbell: 2:03pm On Feb 04
FUTURE4202:
Pls i need help, i think am addicted to alcohol and i really want to stop but am finding it very difficult to stop. Whenever i take anything alcohol i will want to take more on till i get toxic and starting to behave unlikely. Each time i make the decision to stop, i see myself in a short time drinking again, but trust me am tired of the feelings. Whenever i drink i will want to take more like i said earlier and when am high i feel weak and i will begin to hate myself and alcohol and will say to myself never to drink again but you see it never really happened becos i will still go back to drink the next day. Because of dis i have hated and regretted the first day i started taking alcohol.

Pls i need prayers and serious advice before it gets out of hand. And mind you i was not convinced or approached to start alcohol never, i just ventured into it myself and now am regretting becos am getting addicted to it by the day.

It's a pity that you are in this condition.
Many people are also in this condition; trying so hard to break free from their addictions. Some people would even suggest to them to see a therapist or psychologist to get help.
These professionals could only offer them a little assistance and they aren't able to help them break free from their addictions to this terrible habits.

It's a problem of the heart. The spirit of pigs make. people to indulge in such dirty and harmful habit. Like I said earlier, it's the problem of heart. The heart of a sinner is in bondage to the devil.
Mark 7:21 :- "for from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and make man unclean"
All sinful habits come from the heart.
All you need is a new heart and it is only.
Ezekiel 36: 26:-" I will give you a new heart and put in you a new spirit; I will remove from you heart of stone." It is only Jesus that can give you a new heart if only you can give your life to him. He will deliver you from this evil addiction. You may DM me so that we can pray together over the matter.

We will pray over the matter and the Lord Jesus will give us victory. Remember, it is only in Christ Jesus our victory is sure.

HelpfulBro:
regardless of the condition I have very high libido and high testosterone levels so a week without sex or masturbation then that's all I think about, I been dey dispise myself for it but it just built up guilt, anxiety and self doubt so now I own it with my full chest, I'm stopping porn gradually as I don't watch it everyday and only just by mistakes maybe once in a month or twice then I move forward. Not been easy as I moved from watching hardcore nasty porn to how I am now that sometimes just an erotic comic could finish me off. Very soon I won't be using it as I also have a weekly routine for watermelon and tiger nut but thanks either way

Hello Young man.
You can't break free of any addiction with your self-will. You'll only be frustrated doing that. You are already hooked to porn and you need someone to help you.
You need Jesus to help you break free from all forms of evil addiction. If you can give your life to him(Jesus) and ask him to be your Lord and Saviour, He will deliver you from power of sin.
Jesus' York is easy and His burden is light. Give Him a chance today and you would be glad you did.[/quote]
Romance / Re: Can The Past Life Of A Lady Truly Be Overlooked ? by yinkbell: 5:07pm On Jan 26
JessicaRabbit:
My dear, in the grand theater of relationships, honesty is the leading lady, and it seems she's been backstage for quite a while.

"Your friend's cousin" is faced with quite the Shakespearean dilemma, a tragic tale of past indiscretions surfacing on the eve of matrimonial bliss. Now, my friend, while people can evolve and change, transparency is key. If a partner hides a history as colorful as a disco ball, it raises questions about the foundation of trust.

Sure, everyone has a past, but keeping it a secret until the eleventh hour is a tad dramatic, don't you think? My advice? Open the curtains, let the truth take a bow, and then decide if the leading lady deserves a standing ovation or a polite exit. After all, a marriage built on trust and mutual understanding is far more likely to weather life's storms than one shrouded in secrecy and uncertainty. 🎭💔

You've got a witty pen.

Fountainofyouth:








You quoted me 3 times yet lack basic comprehension and understanding of my comments

What has riches got to do with dragging
and having disputes over inheritances? It's a mentality, a crass mentality

Poor people don't kill family members for properties? I hate repeating myself but are there not countless cases of men killing themselves over fathers properties from the rich to the poor? Countless threads on here by men over disputes on properties? Why drag and create enemies or kill each other over land and house when you can make something for yourselves? And they are mostly by men, very disgusting behaviour, even Op couldn't reply a comment that asked if he's an only child which means he isn't, so there will be a property and inheritance issue between him and his siblings in the nearest future

So many slow people on nairaland, very annoying, since you lack understanding, resist the urge to quote me, I can't be repeating myself countless times.

I understood you perfectly well. You don't need to be angry at folks airing their opinions on this forum.

You only based your assumption on many cases you have witnessed.
You sensed complacency in the guy altitude; thinking enjoying the parents luxury would impede him from pursuing his own dreams and ambitions. But that may not be the reason. The Op may still be trying to get his footings.
When he is financially stable, he may find his way out, possibly, that may help him to save more and build his own house.
It may not be what you are thinking.
Know for sure that women also fight and kill over properties.

Antoeni:
The Pope style of leadership is Pastoral. A shepherd who love his sheep. The emphasis is on case by case basis by priest. This situation will help the priest journey with the wayward LGBTQ people and bring them back to track.

So, applying human wisdom is what will help the LGBTQ+ back to track?
People who accepted Christ as their Lord and saviour, were they converted through human wisdom or through faith in the gospel they heard?

Rom1:27
... Men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.(KJV).
Sir, go and read that scripture over and over until the truth sink in you.
How can a blessing be pronounced on what the scripture called ERROR?

Arm robbers who are about to go into operation can also approach a priest to bless them in their evil dealings?
we should leave sentiment aside because of
denomination we belong to and embrace the truth which is the word of God, that's when we can walk in the light.

If dem agree pere na d opposite of wetin World Bank talk go happen. Local production go dey affected. Jobs will be lost as a matter of fact instead of being created.

My big brother! What Local production are you talking about?
What are we producing sir?
The Northerners are trying in the area of agriculture. Those that are making effort to ensure stable food supplies are being killed everyday by bandits and gun men.

World bank mentioned rice as Nigerian staple food. They even know the problems of Nigerians more than ourselves. They were able to evaluate the situation from afar.

How is south-south faring in terms of agricutural produce? Regions that has been degraded by oil spillage. What agricutural produce will germinate well in degraded environment?

What about south-west and south-east contributing in agricutural sector sir?
Everyone is all clamoring for white collar jobs.
A particular region in Ogun State; Ofada which is known for homegrown Ofada rice has become a shadow of itself.
Many farm settlements have become residential areas. Many able-bodied youths that love agriculture have all become Okada riders since government has not developed agricutural sector and makes it more appealing for youths to venture into.
We may see world bank advise as evil and manipulative , but in the real sense, it is just a placebo effect on this our present economy. While it does not totally solve poverty problem, it will definitely provide a transient solution to our economy challenges and food inflation problem.

Your first action might have brought problem on you, the second action is what is more important!
I mean what you do after your first action is what really matters.

Your second action may worsen the situation or ease it off.

That's the problem premarital sex has brought on you. It's not your fault; the only fault you have is not having Jesus as your Lord and savior. He could have helped you against making certain decisions that could mar your destiny.

It's not too late, you can give your life to Christ and make him your Lord and Savior.

She was not a virgin before I MARRIED HER. Infact I know her ex. Though she doesn't cheat on me. She loves to be alone, make money, cruise, vibes with her friends, family. But not with me. Dont cuddle her, don't tickle, don't laugh with her. She gets angry with every little thing. Doesnt apologise. I once cheated on her but apologised. But now, she's starving me of sex, coupled with the height of disrespect from her. Last time I CALLED her elder brother about our frequent quarells. He just said he would talk to her. But he never did. Her mother shouted at me, if i wanted to divorce her, i should go ahead. So much quarells. I am tired. She even left the family prayer whatsapp group i created. OMO, I don't know what to do. I am just tired.

You shouldn't be tired and be wearied.
One thing I want you to know is that, your family is under the siege of the enemy (Devil).

You can only trust God for Total deliverance. Do not even think of divorce, adultery, masturbation, or using any sexual enhancement substance in her diet as some people suggested; all these would only exercerbate the situation.

Thank God you are a Christian and you are looking for a means to uphold your family.
Now, you can invite the one who instituted marriage in your home that is God and hand over the affairs of your home to him.
This can be done through intense prayers and studying God's word.

If you are faithful in prayer to God concerning your home, God will act quickly on it because he says in the book of Malachi, "... I the Lord hate divorce..".

If you are not a born again christian, give your life to Christ and watch him take affair of your family.

May God Almighty uphold your home in Jesus name.(amen).

Everyone that leaves Adam and enter into Christ Jesus is a new creation.

When it comes to choosing wife or husband, one thing that is important is being born again christians.
God is a loving Father , He will lead anyone who seeks his face or enquire from Him about his or her life partner.
Race, tribe, colour, education, race, geographical locations do not really matter when it comes to choosing partner.

Jesus said what he said. No condition is attached. People like to justify themselves to the detriment of their soul. You cannot deceive God even if you deceive or commend yourself.
"There is a way that seems right to a hand but it is the way of destruction" Proverbs

1 Corinthians 7:11 "But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. 11 (but if she does, she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband), and the husband should not divorce his wife.

1 Corinthians 7:10-11 & 39

Bible warned us about false doctrines and false teachers of the last days. You are carrying a strange fire. Put it off.

From the above Scripture; If she departs... She should remain umarried right?
What if it is the husband that divorces her without a cause, will she also remain unmarry?
The husband has dirvoced to remarry.
Adultery annuls the covenant between them, so the innocent woman can remarry if she is willing!

I stand to be corrected.

True.
Mark 10:11-12 "And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery."

Did your Pastor tell you that if you marry a divorced woman, you are married to Hellfire?
if they didn't, please change your church

Read that Bible verses over and over again until it sink into your spirit.

* If a man divorces his wife at her youthful age without any genuine reasons and went ahead to marry another wife, so the young woman should not remarry abi? If She remarry, she will go to hell fire right?

* A man whose wife abbadon him without any good reason and she left her young kids for her husband to cater for and went to marry another man.
You mean the man you not remarry and leave the kids without a motherly care?

* A Randy man who does not provide for her home and always physically abusing the woman, giving her multiple STDs .
Do you want the woman to remain in such marriage?

* The woman who had five husbands in the book of John chapter 4, Jesus said, you have had five husbands and the one you are staying with right now is not your husband.
What do you think happened to the five husbands in the past? Did they die or did they divorce the woman?
Jesus recognized the five as her husbands. He did not only one is your husband out of them all.

I will advise you to get a book of Pastor Kenneth Hagin: marriage, divorce and remarry. And study the book.
Religion / Re: Ilorin Cleric Attacks Osun Priestess, Worshippers by yinkbell: 9:28pm On Jul 22, 2023
[quote author=vannessa7 post=124580346]God is almost becoming a four letter word in some people's heart, what is there to defend in idolatory. When the Almighty God (Allah) (SWA) say who is on the Lord's side, Muslims always step forward. All those supporting the idolatory in Ilorin should go and do same in Kano.

Surprisingly the igbos who are christians and are privy to all that happened at Mt. Camel between Elijah and prophets of Baal are the one championing support for idolatory in Yoruba land and it's just one of their divisive tactics, they are so ungodly that it will be easier to find a needle in a haystack than to find an igbo man in heaven, they can't resist hatred and destruction of others no matter how Godly they claim.
Idolatory is the sole reason why the Yoruba race is not at par with the developed world because we are so blessed. Idolatory will enslave the coming generations and destroy them unless they keep worshipping the idols unlike God who is patient and loving even to unbelievers in Him, idols enslave even if the people that worshipped them died 400 years ago, the new generation who are educated and know nothing about idol will now be in bondage, and only Islam can break the stronghold of idol permanently, idols don't have a heaven to take it's worshippers to, they will all end up in hell with their master the devil. Islam cannot tolerate idolatory. [/quopte]

Thanks for airing your opinion.
Islam, Judaism, Christianity, traditionalists and some other religions believe in supreme being who made the whole Heaven and Earth. There is no dispute about that.

All mankind are curious to know about their existence and what will become of them after death, this poise the reasons for searching for God.

A servant of God by the name Apostle Paul went to Athens to envagenlize, he saw the Athenians Alter with an inscription on it, "to an unknown god".

These people worshipped many gods and even believe that there is an unknown god who is all powerful.

When Apostle Paul saw this inscription; he laid emphasis on it as a lauching pad to commence his preaching about the true God. The moment he got to the point about resurrection of the dead, they all bluffed and they said, " we will hear you about this subject some other times". Though some believed in the gospel and were saved.

What point am I trying to make? There is no compulsion in religion says the Quran.
People who are blind to the truth about God's way only need to be guided by the truth (God's word) so that their paths will be redirected.

It's not by coercion, intimidation and threatening.
Your subject about Elijah killing the Prophets of Baal is a true biblical story.
He was wrongly zealous for God.

God didn't send him to do such.
Sometimes, he called down fire to burn people up.

This is reason why Jesus says, those that came before me are thieves and robbers.
Jesus didn't rob anyone of his/her life before he won people's heart to the side of the Father.

He(Jesus) came to make everything new.
Yeah! Jesus is alive, though He died to take away the sins of the whole world.
Peace be unto you.
