A man found his wife with another man in his bedroom. Instead of shouting or beating both of them he just went back to the sitting room. He switched on the Television and started watching some gospel videos. The wife and the boyfriend were in panic. The boyfriend dressed up and came by the sitting room then he said "Sir am sorry for sleeping with your wife" Husband "It happens you can go". The boyfriend left. The wife never came out from the bedroom till it was time to sleep. The husband switched off the Television and went to sleep in the bedroom. He found his wife sited on the floor crying. The husband never said anything or even asking her. He just slept on his bed and covered himself with some blankets. In the morning on waking up, he found his wife dead. She had committed suicide in the middle of the night as her husband was asleep. The husband was jailed for 20 years for murder.
QUESTION:

2.The wife or
3.The law ?

In this interesting article, we will discuss an introduction to WordPress as a Content Management System. In this part one of the article, we will specifically be discussing the history of WordPress, how it came about and what it really means. Let’s go then.

History of WordPress CMS
Since year 2000, there have been various technological revolutions that have taken great importance in the evolution of Information Technology (IT) and the Internet. However, in the year 2004, the revolution took a shape that had begun to take shape several years ago, and it was finally known as the Web 2.0 revolution, a concept that was created in 2004 by one of the co-founders Dale Dougherty of O’Reilly Media, referring to the remarkable changes that were creating the Internet and the World Wide Web.
Historically, most of the web content on Internet is created by companies and organisations having various websites and much more minority of enthusiastic users of the Internet. They possessed the necessary knowledge and used the web as a way of to share information. But a content generation or Internet publication remained complicated and many users simply used the Internet and the Web to consult and seek information.
Around the early 2000s, companies began to appear who developed web services with a different philosophy, based on participation and ability to share information that users created. This phenomenon can be found in the services such as Bloggers, who had explosive growth. The success was tremendous and any user could create their own website in minutes and start publishing content that was available for other Internet users. One of the most successful services related to the creation of Blogs was the Blogger, which was created by
Pyra Labs , a tiny company in San Francisco and was acquired by Google in 2003.
At that time and in parallel with the creation of multiple services and platforms, development of the WordPress web application began, which was an incredible success with the launch of its first version in May 2003.

What is WordPress?
WordPress is an open source software and known as the most successful content management system and a blogging software written in PHP and based on MySQL database for creating blogs and websites for all kinds of organisations, companies and millions of individuals. The WordPress software is also the origin of the service
WordPress.com and is available to download for free under the terms of GNU GPL. In the contest of Best CMS which was held in 2007, WordPress got 1st place in the category of “Best Open Source Social Networking Content Management System ”.
WordPress lets multiple authors issue tickets, which are classified according to date and category. Also, it consists of external links management, trackbacks, and fine management reviews. Moreover, to that of the more minor such as typographic filters, multilingual interface and a system of permanent links are possible. WordPress has an ability and capability to import bulk content from many other CMS such as Blogger, Movable Type and Textpattern and also allows export of syndication feeds in RSS format. In addition, WordPress totally respects web standards XHTML and CSS and have utilised it in the development of WordPress.
Who Started WordPress?
Matthew Charles Mullenweg started WordPress. He was born January 11, 1984, and is an American online social media entrepreneur and web developer living in San Francisco. He initially developed the free and open source web software
WordPress and founded the charitable organisation called The WordPress Foundation where you can visit and even make donations to help maintain WordPress.

The simplicity of WordPress, ability to grow and improve its functionality easily, as well as
other features like template system, its robustness, the use of standards and continuous improvement are the things that fueled the growth of WordPress . Also, the versions that are published regularly, along with a community of developers and a company that supports and carry out maintenance are also a part of the WordPress growth.
Because of the many features it offers, it has become blogging software for more advanced users, with less knowledge of content management systems. Despite its clear interface, the large amount of menus and options in configuration may put off the novice users. It can help advanced users to improve the functionality of their blogs and convert them into a real e-commerce shop, a portfolio, a brochure site, through optimisation, etc.
Today, the WordPress community has become so active that it has a growing number of resources such as themes and plugins ready for use, documentation and translation software.
The real achievement of WordPress is based on an application developed from the usability, design and functionality that can extend completely through its 24,573 plugins including free and paid . Currently, WordPress is offered in two different ways, it is offered as a service via its wordpress.org site, in which users can create their own blog in minutes. On the other hand, it is offered as a web application which is downloadable on a web server with any web host.
In the following image, you can see a graph of Google Trends of WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal along with Blogger.
As shown in the graph above, as Joomla, Drupal, and Blogger have stopped growing since late 2009, but WordPress has continued to increase and is still increasing rapidly.
On the official website of WordPress.com, you can view statistics of WordPress service, which indicates that there are currently over 63,906,962 websites running on WordPress on their own mode of service.

Following are some data derived from the official WordPress site, which will give you an idea of the current use of WordPress and its rate of evolution:
Over 64 million websites running on WordPress.
Over 377 million people view more than 4.1 billion pages each month.
WordPress.com users produce about 49.3 million new posts and 50.7 million new comments each month.
Provides around 1,747 themes and 24,573 plugins ready to use.
Leading websites running on WordPress: TechCrunch, TED, CNN, National Football League, NBC Sports, Gigaom, CBS Radio, Naijaloaded.com, Tooxclusive.com, 360nobs.com, jaguda.com, futobuy.com and even itk.com.ng all these top websites run on WordPress and don’t be surprised!!!
WordPress blogs are written in over 120 languages . Top 10 languages are listed below:
1. English 66%
2. Spanish 8.7%
3. Portuguese 6.5%
4. Indonesian 3.5%
5. Italian 2%
6. German 1.8%
7. French 1.4%
8. Russian 1.1%
9. Vietnamese 1.1%
10. Swedish 1.0%
Today, WordPress has become one of the best management systems most importantly for content, which is used by millions of individuals as well as all types of organisations and companies, be it a small or large.
WordPress is the best CMS, but when it comes to building a website it becomes harder for a beginner to choose the best WordPress hosting (don’t worry, itk.com.ng will put you through hosting your WordPress site, just relax), Themes, Plugins etc.
I hope you’ve understood the concept of WordPress, it’s history and basics.
We would publish a part Two of this article which would talk more about using WordPress as a CMS and a website builder.
Use the comment box to ask questions if you are confused anywhere or make a contribution. Bye and come again for the part two.

TEACHING By Pastor Poju Oyemade
*It is either Instructive or it is Seductive*
By *Pastor Poju Oyemade*
Paul refused to preach with the enticing words of man's wisdom. He knew that method was largely seductive but not instructive. It created a momentary emotional experience in the soul but had no transformative experience in one's life.
The Greeks at the time of Paul's preaching had three words that were used to describe wisdom. They described the three qualities that the mind of any man who possessed wisdom had. In fact when Paul said to Timothy, God hath not given us the spirit of fear but of love, power, and a sound mind, he was referring to those attributes of the mind in the use of the phrase 'sound mind'. It was a mind that was equipped.
The first was a word that could be translated as the knowledge that pertains to the eternal. A knowledge of things divine. It was a knowledge that had to do with thoughts of things eternal. The second attribute is where we derive the word prudence from, and it a quality of mind that has to do with the arrangement of a man's life, conduct, and action. It was regarded as the form of wisdom through which men prospered on the earth. The third quality of the mind was a wisdom that dealt with critical thinking and making choices. It was the power to distinguish between different courses of action, different values of things and different relationships between people.
You will find Paul praying in the epistles for the different kinds of wisdom in the knowledge of Christ and His will. In Colossians, he asked for wisdom and spiritual understanding. Solomon also asked for a wise and understanding heart. They knew the different qualities and the combination required.
Now when a person has regard for just the first form of wisdom which is the knowledge of things eternal and divine without paying attention to using that knowledge for the proper arrangement of human life, action, and conduct, he opens his soul to corruption. He will minister his knowledge of eternal things, but not in the demonstration of the Spirit and power and without the intent of transforming life, action, and conduct but with what Paul termed enticing words. He will only be concerned with an academic knowledge of the spiritual, void of its transforming power.
When Paul condemned the idea of him preaching with enticing words, that is seductive words, he was speaking about a situation in his world that day. The Greeks had always loved words and they had a well known orator in their day who was very famous. This man had two faults. He was more concerned about the words he used, how he said a thing, than what was said. His first aim was to provoke applause.
It was said of the group of men who followed his pattern "they are all agape for the murmur of the crowd. Like men walking in the dark, they move always in the direction of clapping and shouting".
One of them said to another "I want your praise". "What do you mean by my praise" he asked, his reply "I want you to say Bravo! and Wonderful!". It was depicted back then as the Professor who went round after his lecture was done asking "what did you think of me today?" what did you think of my best passage?" “What was that?” will be the reply, then he will speak about the new phrases and new words he used.
The whole idea behind the use of enticing words was to seduce the people to gain a response of clapping and shouts leaving them with no instructions on how they could re-arrange their lives, actions and conduct through the knowledge given. Those who listened had great emotional experiences while it lasted but got home with no basic instructions on what to do.
If you read Paul's letters you will find the three types of wisdom in them. The knowledge of things eternal and then how the human life will be re-arranged transforming action and conduct. You will see this pattern in his writings. He switches from the deep mysteries to how husbands should now treat their wives and vice versa, how servants should relate with masters etc. A message of grace that speaks "eternal" things but refuses to give instructions on how that grace will transform life, conduct and action is seductive.
The proof of genuine ministries are not the letters of commendation you receive from men about words used but whether those whom you minister too are becoming living epistles of Christ to be read and known by all men. It is about a demonstration of the Spirit, where as you minister the people with an open face are beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord being transformed into the image of Christ.
The Pentecostal movement I belong to seems to be today the easiest place for seduction because there seems to be more of a desire for an emotional reaction rather than practical thought when listening to a preacher. The question you must ask is how is this going to transform my life, conduct and actions? Payless emphasis to the visuals, the screams and the shouts. Listen for practical thoughts and transformative insights derived from eternal truths.
It is not so much how the preacher made me feel or how many new words I learnt but whether his words are dissolving doubts, answering questions in my practical life and changing things about how I do things.

It was said of the group of men who followed his pattern "they are all agape for the murmur of the crowd. Like men walking in the dark, they move always in the direction of clapping and shouting".
One of them said to another "I want your praise". "What do you mean by my praise" he asked, his reply "I want you to say Bravo! and Wonderful!". It was depicted back then as the Professor who went round after his lecture was done asking "what did you think of me today?" what did you think of my best passage?" “What was that?” will be the reply, then he will speak about the new phrases and new words he used.
The whole idea behind the use of enticing words was to seduce the people to gain a response of clapping and shouts leaving them with no instructions on how they could re-arrange their lives, actions and conduct through the knowledge given. Those who listened had great emotional experiences while it lasted but got home with no basic instructions on what to do.
If you read Paul's letters you will find the three types of wisdom in them. The knowledge of things eternal and then how the human life will be re-arranged transforming action and conduct. You will see this pattern in his writings. He switches from the deep mysteries to how husbands should now treat their wives and vice versa, how servants should relate with masters etc. A message of grace that speaks "eternal" things but refuses to give instructions on how that grace will transform life, conduct and action is seductive.
The proof of genuine ministries are not the letters of commendation you receive from men about words used but whether those whom you minister too are becoming living epistles of Christ to be read and known by all men. It is about a demonstration of the Spirit, where as you minister the people with an open face are beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord being transformed into the image of Christ.
The Pentecostal movement I belong to seems to be today the easiest place for seduction because there seems to be more of a desire for an emotional reaction rather than practical thought when listening to a preacher. The question you must ask is how is this going to transform my life, conduct and actions? Payless emphasis to the visuals, the screams and the shouts. Listen for practical thoughts and transformative insights derived from eternal truths.
It is not so much how the preacher made me feel or how many new words I learnt but whether his words are dissolving doubts, answering questions in my practical life and changing things about how I do things.

In This Article, I will take you through Joomla as a Content Management System (CMS)
What is CMS
Content Management Systems (CMS) are great options for website development, and for simple or complex website solutions. If you are considering a CMS, Joomla! might well be the system you are looking for. With Joomla! you can build a simple website or blog, or build complex applications like a membership site, an e-commerce store, a movie or music database, and more.
What is Joomla?
Joomla is a free and open source content management system (CMS) to build websites and powerful online applications. With powerful core features, ease of use and extensibility, Joomla has become one of the most popular website software.
CMS stands for content management system, the software keeps track of every piece of content on your website. Content can be simple text, photos, music, video … It is easy to you that does not require any technical skill or knowledge.
What are the reasons to use Joomla as CMS
Because a CMS works in a dynamic manner, retrieving your writing from a database and incorporating it into your current template to build your page, there are other things it can do while it is at it. Your main content is integrated into the ‘central’ part of the page but around the periphery of the page other ‘modules’ can be carrying out related tasks. Lists of ‘most popular’, ‘most recent’ or ‘related’ articles can be integrated into your page, polls allowing people to vote on issues, newsletter sign-up can be integrated. There are modules for PayPal donations, etc.
