My Thoughts on This Rape Thing

On rape. A #Thread Rape has a number of things that falls into its definition. But simply put, it is any sexual carnal knowledge of a person without the person's consent. I believe in Christian values so I'll rely heavily on the Bible in my submissions. It's not a strange concept in our world. In fact, 2 examples jumped into my mind right now,from the Bible 😳🙆🏽‍ Don't forget Sodomites attempted to gang rape an angel 😇 But this one I want to show us.actually happened. It is in Gen 34, about Dinah, Schechem and the Israelites Ok. So this guy had a crush on Dinah and could not wait to marry her, he decided to have his way with her. Note that he actually lived her. in verse 3 of Gen 34 "His heart was drawn to Dinah daughter of Jacob; he loved the young woman and spoke tenderly to her." The problem is that he put the cart before the horse. In some rape cases, this is what happens. Going after the cochies (as @solaadio will...

Formula for a healthy home

One of the most important things young people consider before marriage is if the marriage will stand the test of time. Understanding the roles of each individual in a marital relationship is crucial. This is not being stereotypical but finding a formula that brings less conflict and adaptable compromises. This (copied) story below captures this succinctly: I once asked my friend, "What is the secret behind your happy married life?"  He replied, "You should share responsibilities with due love, and respect for each other. Then absolutely there will be no problems." I asked, "Can you explain?" He said, "In my house, I take decisions on bigger issues whereas my wife decides on smaller issues. We do not interfere in each other's decisions." Still not convinced, I asked him to give me some examples. He said, "Smaller issues like how many kids to have, the neighbourhood to live, which car we should buy, how much money to save, who, ...

KINGDOM WISDOM FOR FINANCIAL FREEDOM

Hello folks! Bishop Bolu Fam shared some very key things about Wisdom for Kingdom Financial Freedom today (December 15, 2019) in church. Let me share some of them with you: #Thread (This is a Twitter thread unrolled) INTRODUCTION Freedom from financial troubles has something to do with mindset. If you will have financial freedom, you need wisdom. Kingdom wisdom. The starting point of financial freedom is to get financial wisdom. Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. You need to attain full citizenship of the Kingdom. A certain rich man asked Jesus what to do to enter the Kingdom. Jesus asked him to first disengage himself from financial bondage. It looked senseless to the man. The same way we behave when it comes to your money and the Kingdom of God. Jesus said it will be very difficult for rich men to enter the Kingdom of God. Jesus is saying the system of the kingdom of this world through whi...

YOUTH ENGAGEMENT IN NEGOTIATING THE TERMS OF PEACE: THE MEDIA AS A CATALYST Oluwaseyi Ige An article in commemoration of United Nation's International Youth Day 2017. Contributed as part of efforts by InventYouthAfrica to mark the day. As a basic definition, the media are the several mediums or channels used in an organised fashion to communicate to individuals and groups. The most commonly recognized forms of media are print, audio, video and new information technologies (new media), which can be divided between ‘mainstream’ and ‘alternative’ outlets dependent on their structure, focus and content. Media, particularly new media, has no doubt transformed the way in which youth engage with their environment, government and community leaders to promote peace and reconciliation. Reliable, accurate and objective media, whether it be mainstream, alternative or traditional/nonconventional, can both prevent and resolve conflict through the automatic functions of ...
