I once loved a man who had more character than cash. His phone died and the house was running on fumes. As at then,I had enough. I bought the phone and kept the home standing without announcing it or turning it into a debt.
He never asked me to. I did it because I loved him, not because I was keeping a ledger. That is the only version of love I respect now. If you can watch someone you claim to love struggle while you have more than enough, you do not love them. You are only dating them.
Men, the ones who give without keeping score are not weak. They are showing you what love actually looks like. Match it or leave it.
You people are still debating what you can do and what you can't do for your partner.
I don't know the faith you people are practising or even the values you have. There is a reason love is the personality trait of all human values. We are very religious but very godless.
If I love you, I would wrest the moon from the sky for you, if I could. I would give my life for yours if it ever arises. That's the ultimate show of love. But that is also why I cant love just anybody. I can't love someone who is so poor in mind and spirit that all you can think of in relationship is just how to take. I can't love someone who thinks like a thief because she is so poor in mind - why would you be inflating school fees or money for running the home because you want to cash in a little extra? I can't love someone who is not fully invested in the home to give all of herself to it including her finances. I can't love someone who is so low in spirit to value money above the relationship.
Money or what money can buy, is the easiest thing to give to someone you actually love. If you find it difficult to do that, you already have a big problem because you'll never be able to make the real sacrifices when they arise. Again, nobody loves by taking. The only proof of love is GIVING. That someone actually have a heart to be unwilling to do somethings for you(a limitation of how far they can go) is already a visible presence of a lack of love. Love does not think of itself or demand its own way.
- "I love you, but I'll never buy you a phone if yours is spoilt and you can't afford a new one while I have more than enough to afford it."
- "I love you, but my money is my money. Don't put eyes on my money. I'll never submit my money to the wellbeing of the family and never expect me to pay bills or get you stuff. I deserve to be pampered"
"I love you but I can never do this for a man/woman."
None of this is an example of love. NONE. That you need someone to spell it out, is already a problem. The first character of love is that it is kind. The second is that, it is not selfish. The third is that it is not unjust.
Again, I don't know religiosity you people are practising that your love only thinks of yourself while you're claiming to love another. The most important thing every religion or society teaches you is love. Yet, we simply cant get it right because we are a very wicked people. Your values will always reflect in your relationship
@OYEDEJI@peculiarchichii Yes. But in that passage, just before that, they were told to go to the elders of the church. This can help a person who's weak in faith, or too weak to stand alone. But yes, people need to do MUCH of their paying alone, first of all
This is what consuming Red dye(Sudan) in Palm-oil does to the human body after almost 2 years.
The couple you see on your screen are the latest victims of Palm-oil adulteration I wrote about this evening.
Mr. and Mrs. Iyoyo Pedro.
They granted me permission to post this photo of them after our video call this night.
The photo on the left was taken on the 12th of April, 2025 when Jessy Fulton, a Haitian marine biologist was brought to Nigeria by her husband, Mr. Pedro shortly after their wedding.
The photo on the right is a screenshot taken this night during my video call with them.
Unfortunately, from April last year till this month, this beautiful couple have been unknowingly consuming adulterated Palm-oil containing red wood paint colour, Sudan shoe dye II, rice water and stale cassava flour.
At the moment of making this post, this couple have been diagnosed with a broad spectrum of carcinogenic anomalies, digestive health collapse and a critical liver.
Jessy, the wife just confirmed to me that the last time she was able to move her bowels without the use of heavy laxatives and suppositories was November last year.
If you know anyone who is mixing red dyes in Palm-oil and selling to the public, PLEASE help me expose them.
Help me bring the law to them.

@Mr_Sima_ take the consequences), u can legally, in both your mercy & legal judgement combined, take it on urself instead... Would u do that? If so, you realize how you MUST become man to do it?
Yeah... He did. Twas the perfectly logical thing to do for a perfectly legal and merciful God
@Mr_Sima_ What do you do? In your mercy you don't want to punish another being for the consequences of man's actions, that's obviously not very principled. You can, however, do anything (within the sphere of your principles, that's it- you cannot just "make it all disappear" with nobody to
@AKINYEMIANTHON8@saratu 1) Did he give examples of the ways of improper conduct?
2) Playing the devil's advocate & granting that, does every guest of other countries conduct themselves properly like him, in those other places? Do they evict EVERYBODY that's a guest for the actions of few that don't?

The Bible’s stance on abortion is clear.
Jesus was celebrated while in the womb—by another person who was still in the womb.
That same person that celebrated Jesus while they were still both in the womb was filled with the Holy Ghost while he was still in the womb.
God made it clear that He already knew us while we were being formed in the womb.
If you will kill a child for a defect while still in the womb then you will kill a child for the same defect while outside the womb. It is not a new practice at all—many civilizations killed children with (birth) defects because they deemed them incapable of being able to function properly in their society.
Which is what you are advocating today.
And that’s expected—just not from those who claim to be Christians.
Finally, “how many people with DS have you helped” is a silly strawman at best. If a cure was found for DS tomorrow, would the babies in the womb with DS suddenly have a right to live? Would my helping or not helping them be a factor as to why they should live or not?
You people can evade or twist biblical truth all you want to justify infanticide—you won’t be the first.
Just know that you will be judged for it.
@general_dapo@lumumba2_0@SpiricocoNg@grok With no remorse, anyhow, can get one to that place too. Sometimes God is merciful and takes the flesh of the person so they can remain saved and not reach that state, as in 1 Cor 11:30-32
@general_dapo@lumumba2_0@SpiricocoNg@grok I'll attach a video if I find it, if someone who publicly is rejecting Jesus. She was saved before. She cursed out the Holy Spirit too, to ensure that Jesus doesn't come back for her again. That's falling away.
But that's not the only way to fall away. Living in sin habitually
@lumumba2_0@general_dapo@SpiricocoNg@grok He did that, but was still following Jesus about not so? And he cried terribly afterwards, not so? That's not "falling away"
