Family / The Parable Of The Prodigal Son. Is The Father Compassionate Or Biase ? by crazymarketer: 10:13pm On Jan 03, 2014 |
Lets assume this story wasn't lifted from the Bible. It happened to you... By you i mean you are either the father or the elder brother 1. What would be your honest reaction as a father? 2. Will you honestly throw a party? 3. As the elder brother, how will you take the 'format' ('all that i have is yours') from the father? Please read and share. (This is going to be interesting and educational) The Parable of the Prodigal Son 11 And he said, “There was a man who had two sons. 12 And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.’ And he divided his property between them. 13 Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in reckless living. 14 And when he had spent everything, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to[a] one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs. 16 And he was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, and no one gave him anything. 17 “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough bread, but I perish here with hunger! 18 I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.”’ 20 And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. 21 And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ 22 But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. 23 And bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let us eat and celebrate. 24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.’ And they began to celebrate. 25 “Now his older son was in the field, and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 And he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. 27 And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and sound.’ 28 But he was angry and refused to go in. His father came out and entreated him, 29 but he answered his father, ‘Look, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed your command, yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your property with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him!’ 31 And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. 32 It was fitting to celebrate and be glad, for this your brother was dead, and is alive; he was lost, and is found.’” |

Politics / A Nairalander Suspecting Aboki's In Lagos. Aren't You? by crazymarketer: 5:33pm On Dec 20, 2013 |
Hi my fellow Nairalanders, hope you had a great day Call it Paranoia but am i the only one that feels the way we have at least one Hausa to one House in Lagos is not safe? Think about it 1. They do heavy jobs: therefore they are strong and can take 2 yoruba's down 2. Most of them have at least one dangerous weapon. 3. Most of the time they have secret meetings 4. They follow instructions to the letter 5. They are highly religious. 6. They have even graduated to smoking weed!!!!!!!! (Which drives them even crazy) 7. To crown it all we don't understand their language (I am just saying... no disrespect to my fellow Abokis) Please before you abuse me. Think about it. Imagine if there is war today like it used to be then (In Agege) what is our fate? Your comment please |

Nairaland / General / What’s Your Worst Experience With Bulk SMS Providers in Nigeria? by crazymarketer: 5:16pm On Oct 06, 2013 |
My greatest problem with SMS Company is accountability. I unfortunately subscribed to a bulk SMS provider that said they sell sms at 0.90kobo per sms until I uploaded sms and realized they bill more than 0.90kobo per sms. Kindly share your worse experience with sms providers and how they have cheated you. Also kindly suggest SMS providers that do not cheat and offer voice sms or robo call and email marketing with their bulk sms service. |
