Last time I check that is something from within. So basically its not you his married to its the person that train you. Any ways I could give to FCK about marriage. Its not a obligation its a given. Its not monopoly. 2. 1/2 of the time you married you still have to call another dude to do your plumbing and light construction work in your home cause your husband don't know how to do sht. Kind of like my dad. He don't know how to do no menlly work but him and my older sister know how to take advantage of women and boys and manipulate them.

I assume that's her father accompanying her near the 1 minute mark? His dress and manner suggest that he is a highly ranked soldier in the Zamundan armed forces. He would have spent a considerable amount of time and money having his daughter trained to serve the prince as his wife. He would no doubt also be banking on a royal marriage as his family's way of ascending the ladder of Zamundan aristocracy. For such an ambitious and puissant man, the fact that Akeem publically spurred his daughter in order to marry a commoner would have been an insult and humiliation of the worst sort. Knowing the fractious nature of African court politics stemming from tribal affiliations and a reliance upon nepotism in order to garner loyalty and support (i.e. Uganda during Idi Amin, Zaire under the reign of Mobuto Sese-Seko) I think we can safely assume that Akeem and his chosen bride would've enjoyed a blissful couple of weeks as newlyweds before they were publically beheaded by a newly risen military junta, and their bodies thrown to the crocodiles as an example to the rest.

Why not make sure that you are truly saved by Jesus Christ and practice this way. Remorsefully confess with your heart your sins to Jesus Christ who is God and tell Him that you right now are repenting of your sins and you want to be born again of the Spirit from above. Tell Jesus that you are remorsefully sorry for breaking His commandments and that you are begging for forgiveness from Him. Allow His blood from the cross to wash away your sins. After this is done with your heart successfully the Holy Spirit will come to live within you and He will rebuild you from the inside out. Look for signs that you are saved. Things like spreading the good news from Jesus, getting other people saved, a craving for the word of God, reading the Bible, etc… These things are known as a calling and fruit bearing. If you're not bearing fruit then keep doing it. Sometimes it takes time to get saved. Read Matthew chapter 13 from the King James Bible. God bless!!!!!!!
