I should not marry because of money.
hmmmm
where are the people in the banning industry?
come and ban this one please

So all these are what non Christians should do? Just like saying don’t kill someone because you’re a Christian

sober reflection to prevent future damning consequences.

I wonder how we think in this nation. Every body keep saying that it's a normal moral value. OP point out specifically that the bible warns us about it. Like
Jeremiah 17:11
[11]As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
In other words doing such things cuts short your life.

when u buy perishable goods to re-sell, it is also gambling with ur money. every biz is a risk and therefore a gamble. so what exactly are you saying

Thank you! I will be sharing these as a topic in our morning devotion.

At least, i will use it for good seven days topics.

It should come across as shameful if you are an adult and you need to be told to not do these things before you don't do them. For god sake these things are basic moral values every right-thinking human should have.

I dont know where as Nigerians we have missed it. Everything is upside down.

so true.. happy Sunday everyone

Truefaith:


These are not Christian issues: ordinary, morally-upright people, don't do them.

If your morality is of the standard that ordinary, moral, people can attain, you are not even a Christian, to start with.
Or what definition is the writer giving to his "Christians"?

christians = disciples of Christ; any other definitions?

Aderewah:
Is it a sin if a Christian produce porn? It's not any of the above. I'm asking because a friend has that idea but I don't know what to tell him. Since what do you think?

.
It's a great Sin. Morally porn is a very bad stuff and when it comes to Christianity it's totally unacceptable. Promoting or Producing porn is equivalent to doing and supporting it(Sin). May God help us in Jesus name.

Emily22:
I would rather be known in life as a honest sinner than a lying hypocrite

Whats that, an 'honest 'sinner'? I have heard it all at this point.

Goldenheart:
You must be ready to get your hands dirty if u wanna be rich in this part of the world.

There are unlimited wealthy people with clean hands in this part of the world. Not everyone is interested in acquiring riches by crocked means.

Aderewah:

See,in Christianity,what we call "sin" doesn't necessarily mean you are direct evil.Sin is more about "ignorance".
Naturally,man exist for the purpose of "pleasure",and the two main points of pleasure are the "spirit"(soul) and "Flesh"(the 5 senses plus the mind)
When we live mainly to pleasure our senses,this is what is called IGNORANCE which will drive us to do evil.Why is it called ignorance?,because there is a "greater" pleasure living in the spirit(pleasuring our soul)which always produces genuine love.That pleasure we get from food,sex,drugs,accumulation of possessions etc,is incomparable to what spirit(soul) offers.It is like comparing 1 and 99.That ignorance of identifying our true being as "flesh",and not spirit is what God considers sin.God is spirit and we were meant to live in the spirit(the image of God).There is nothing spiritual about PORN

The keyword is that you should not hurt other people to acquire money.
Judas actually hurt his friend Jesus by selling him because of money. Jesus was killed. Judas later hang himself.
You see, it was a bad way of making money.

Try to understand the principle.

As long as you do not hurt other people in your efforts to making money, you will be fine

Due diligence.

Both buyer and seller are at fault.

Why exactly did you not know the product was 10m?

I love this write up
God bless you

Well written

May God bless the writer.

1 Timothy 6:6-11
But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

I don't want us to drag this too much but for the records taking a biz risk in the example is not an example of gambling. there is high possibility 95% u're going to sell ur goods finish before it starts to get rotten. and u, u buy the goods urself and check how fast it gonna get spoilt and also u know the market u're taking it to..you can't compare it to someone says he's gambling responsibly on sport betting

The seller is a scammer.

Nvc078:

The seller is a scammer.

That might be true, however, being naive can be almost as bad as scamming, it enables it.

In this case, why did the buyer not know the cost of the item, let's assume it's a real scenario?

Btw, the seller might be greedy or an opportunist, how is he or she a scammer? Was the item fake ?

Bros me gambling is a risk same as any biz embarkation. Let's not drag it. U condemn betting because ur Bible says so but mind u that the book is not a world standard guide. All I am saying is that if betting is illegal government will not give them license. Without betting football will have no meaning.
They call it forex or market trending investment, I hope u know they are different names giving to staking of money to make more. Ofcos each gambling has its level of risk. There are bound to be losers and winners in every staking engagement

The bible already said it that the love for money is the root of all injurious things; quit breaking them out into sub-topics In lieu, one should love Jehovah God with your whole heart, mind, spirit and self (soul).
