#SoulTies 18 starts shortly.

1. Good morning y’all. Pls email me ur testimony on SoulTiesTestimonies@karisministries.org if u have been blessed by #SoulTies tweets.

2. I want to state that we are not here to condemn anyone or stigmatize anyone who has repeatedly fallen into sin due to #SoulTies

3. We are here to expose #SoulTies as the works of the enemy that the blood of Jesus has been shed to purge us from.

4. I also want to say that this isn’t a motivational broadcast but the gospel of Jesus Christ. #SoulTies

5. We are looking at this from the standard of the Word of God and no less. No compromise. #SoulTies

6. The flesh finds the Word and the Spirit of God unbearable but we cannot dilute the message. #SoulTies

7. Please take time off to LIKE our Facebook page using this link http://dld.bz/cU2zp #SoulTies

8. Please join our FaceBook group here as well to receive timely updates about our activities. http://dld.bz/cU4fR #SoulTies

10. So please be sure to hook up with me on Google+ for the hangouts. https://plus.google.com/+OlusolaAdio

11. In these #SoulTies hangouts, there’ll be room for people to ask questions about what we have been learning.

12. I also have a BBM pin dedicated to #SoulTies; 7c5bbd57 so you can hook up on BBM at your earliest convenience.

13. Please visit our new blog page to access audio downloads of the #SoulTies tweets. http://dld.bz/dgwCB

14. Today, we continue with looking at other entry points for #SoulTies apart from sex.

15. It is widely believed by experts that 50% of emotional affairs aka #SoulTies metamorphose into sexual affairs.

16. If you are involved in a so-called platonic friendship, your chances of ending up in bed are 50%. #SoulTies

17. We will look at platonic friendships soon. Platonic friendships mask unspoken emotional feelings for a while. #SoulTies

18. Today, we continue looking at crushes. They are another form of #SoulTies that can be potentially distractive.

19. We stopped with the following statements. #SoulTies

20. An unhandled crush can sink your marriage if you don’t deal with it. #SoulTies

21. An unhandled crush can rob you of emotional health in your existing relationships. #SoulTies

22. An unhandled crush can make you have silly expectations of your future spouse or partner that may rob you of joy. #SoulTies

23. Also mentioned that Miss Coker was my French teacher in school. Check #SoulTies 17 and get up to speed.

24. I got smashed up quite often by bigger boys when I got to secondary school and it was a new experience for me. #SoulTies

25. I was the best French student in class then and my name showed up on Miss Coker’s radar after one term. #SoulTies

26. She was very tall & pretty. We all had our favourites or crushes in class then and she was mine. #SoulTies

27. The way it worked then was you all had your favourite female teacher you were crushing on. #SoulTies

28. Bad news time is when another teacher is suspected to be dating your crush or her wedding date has been announced. #SoulTies

29. She spoke highly of me to the class and her colleagues. We got talking one day and I mentioned my plight to her. #SoulTies

30. She was so upset about it and she offered me protection in the form of going after the bullies and caning them. #SoulTies

31. Also, she said I could sit around her during break to keep out of harm’s way and to run her errands. #SoulTies

32. One thing for you to just crush on a person, another level when ur crush creates room for contact with you. #SoulTies

33. She lived up to her word. She went after the bullies. My fellow crushers gave up on her when they saw our closeness. #SoulTies

34. We didn’t have ‘enough’ crushes to go round so 10 boys could end up crushing on the same female teacher. #SoulTies

35. Then I was sick and didn’t show up in school for a whole week. Those days only the mega rich in Nigeria had phones. #SoulTies

36. We didn’t have any phone. I guess my parents would have contacted the school but I’m not sure what they did. #SoulTies

37. One evening, I saw Miss Coker walk past the window outside and then heard a knock on the door. I quickly got my Dad. #SoulTies

38. During my days in Nigeria, when a teacher turned up at your house, things could go very horribly wrong for you. #SoulTies

39. I once saw a Dad who came to school after a teacher’s bad report and seriously boxed his son on the assembly line. #SoulTies

40. I had no prior knowledge of her visit so I was very scared. Anyway, my Dad let her in and she got a royal welcome. #SoulTies

41. I don’t know if teachers are still that honored in Nigeria or anywhere else. Then I vanished from sight. #SoulTies

42. 5 mins later, my parents produced me and she explained that she had not seen me in school and she was worried. #SoulTies

43. Oh dear! Crush levels increased by 1000db when I heard her say to my parents that I was her best student in class. #SoulTies

44. Then two validation levels determined your flogging frequency at home. The one from parents and one from teachers. #SoulTies

45. Unknown to me, she was sighted coming into our house by my classmates across the street. Gossip galore in school. #SoulTies

46. When I got back, I earned a nickname ‘Mr Coker’. I was teased that she came to ask for my hand in marriage. #SoulTies

47. I didn’t reject the nickname cos of the crush. I was still being protected by my crush. It worked out nicely. #SoulTies

48. Nothing bad happened but my mind was filled with silly fantasies like growing taller, marrying her, eloping. #SoulTies

49. It wore off by the time my peer group started having girlfriends within our age bracket. #SoulTies

50. You flip the genders around. A male teacher with a female student or a male boss with a female intern. TROUBLE!! #SoulTies

51. And more trouble, when the crushee becomes aware of a crusher and decides to create ‘open doors’. #SoulTies

52. A crush can also be a person that you have pre-screened in your mind before any prior external contact. #SoulTies

53. Pre-screen means you’ve decided that should this guy come along to start something, it’s an instant YES! #SoulTies

54. Crushing becomes extremely dangerous when there is some form of contact between the crusher and crushee. #SoulTies

55. Some women have been heard to say they would have a baby for their crush even the crushee isn’t interested. #SoulTies

56. If it doesn’t wear off or get removed by the Word, it can get transferred to other people u meet in life. #SoulTies

57. Example, if your original crush had a particular exaggerated body part and he/she was never available to you. #SoulTies

58. In the future, when you meet people with similar features, you will settle for them in lieu of the inaccessible one. #SoulTies

59. Some have gotten married and then met their high-school crushes several years later. They had secret affairs. #SoulTies

60. Some even had kids for themselves while being married to other people. #SoulTies

61. US stats show that 10% of kids are born into families and their real dads are not their mums husbands. #SoulTies

62. Nigerian DNA bodies even say it’s 3 of 10. 30% of kids delivered by wives in families are fathered by secret lovers. #SoulTies

63. Statistically, you have 30% chances of marrying a woman in Nigeria that will have baby in wedlock that is for another man. #SoulTies

64. When a woman delivers a baby as those it’s Dad is her husband, it becomes d most guarded secret in d world. #SoulTies

65. Fashionable crushes like Miss Coker are the ones we can talk about. There are several others we can’t talk about. #SoulTies

66. They are crushes you have on ur boss, ur pastor, ur friend’s husband, ur cousin’s wife, ur parish member etc #SoulTies

67. Crushes and what they produce (if they ever get actualized) are always the most closely guarded secrets in life. #SoulTies

68. You chew on them in private but if you chew on them long enough satan can eventually arrange a meeting for you both. #SoulTies

69. A public figure, actress or pastor has no idea how many people out there are crushing over them. #SoulTies

70. For non-pastors, they may relish the attention. For church leaders, it’s a problem and I’ll explain. #SoulTies

71. When you crush over a person, you are sending out negative spiritual forces out to that person. #SoulTies

72. One person crushing on you doesn’t sound like a problem. 1000 ladies or men crushing on you is very significant. #SoulTies

73. To compound the issues, many crushers know they are wrong and move on. Others don’t and they play rough & dirty. #SoulTies

74. It then means that you need to soak yourself in prayers if you have visible contact with many people. #SoulTies

75. If you are crushing secretly on certain people in your present or past while being married, u need to break it. #SoulTies

76. I know a lady who once changed church and city cos she was crushing on her pastor and didn’t want it to happen. #SoulTies

77. I have an audio that can help you break crushes and #SoulTies. It’s here. –> http://dld.bz/djdab #SoulTies

78. Please help spread the word about #SoulTies and get your tweeps to follow the tweets on @solaadio

79. See you guys next week at the #SoulTies Hangout on Google+. #SoulTies
