Rexyl: But accordingly, that's exactly what u r doing - TESTING HIM - when you fail to observe all mundane precautions and safeguards. And if u observe all safeguards, then HIS Influence is virtually mute, properly in the area above human control. |

tunde1200:Don't give yourself a headache, we Nigerians are gullible people; can't you see the way they are spitting vitriolic comments. All op said was take care of the physical and let the spiritual do His own thing. Because I believe Jesus saves doesn't mean I will go and board a vehicle in bad condition and whose driver is drunk 1 Like 1 Share |

Op Superb thread, you did a good job here.. we need proper education in that country concerning everything. Even our police should stop drivers and do some alcohol test instead of asking for 50naira bribe, In EU this is a normal thing, most of our local drivers in Nigeria believe that with alcohol they drive better and their eyes are well functioning, this is all lack of proper education... Thanks Op. Hope the authorities do something about this cox the road accident lately is going out of control..

Bobbysworld28: You don't still get it right! God gives three approaches to situation. These are YES, WAIT OR NO. One will just end it up in frustration if he or she tempts God - not even testing him as stated before. Because He can still respond positively to test on him if done by faith. |

PenSniper: Dear am not a pastor and don't worship in a pastor's church either. My problem with you is being tribal bigot. A christian shouldn't be that tribalistic. Why not pass the message without mentioning a tribe. If you claim to be a Christian refrain from tribalism. |

holocron: One will likely fail if he challenges God without strong faith in him. He can't come down to do what he has given us the wherewithal. Abi what is the essense of wonderfully and fearfully creating human beings. |

AngelJennifer: What happens if it happens to be the exclusive preserve of a particular tribe with their numbers rising ? Being specific about the anomaly makes those of their tribe with some decorum and decency to descend on them to stop tarnishing the image of the tribe. This has nothing to do with tact or tribalism. Our Lord make specific references to Pharisees, Sadduces, Capanaum, etc, in upbraiding them. Only the Truth sets free. Thank you mam. |

i think the stupid OP is trying to say muslims, pagans and others have never had accident on nigerian roads simply because they are not involved in paying tithes to pastors. if u ask me, i think he is retarded. A very nice post was smeared with the religious involvement. |

agrovick: okay, the question is ...who intentionally goes to the park( because if its a private vehicle u can do as u please) looking specifically for a drunk driver to drive him/her to a destination? Also, who goes to a park and prefers to ride in a rickety old vehicle when there are good looking cars? keep it in mind that at the motor parks buses n cars load in turns, what happens if all the cars going to the destination are rickety n bad? and u know that there are no other options for u, does that mean u wouldnt go for that aptitude test, that interview or visit that Aunty u know can give you something when u are leaving? if these choices are not in our hands to make (choosing the car or driver), why is the blood of Jesus and paying tithes the cause or related in any way to such accidents? does it mean less or no accidents are recorded when other religious believers travel...probably because they dont hope in the saving power of the blood nor pay tithes? the OP lacks critical reasoning is THE SUMMARY of this thread. |

PenSniper: Please learn tact in point presentation. It would come handy one of these days. I am a Christian too and do not like how some of them present themselves as if the gospel is for sale. But then if you really know the scriptures ( I am doubly sure you are not grounded in the scriptures because of the way you made your presentations here), you would have seen how it played out in Paul's days and how he responded to it. Of course, I still maintain that you only see Igbos because you travel a lot with them. When next you write on a public forum, kindly desist from writing in caps. It makes it appear like you are shouting or you are somewhat not intelligent. |

CARLOSZ: IS THERE SUCH A THING AS A NIGERIAN CHURCH THAT HAS "STUDIED AND UNDERSTOOD RELIGION AND FAITH?" I have never heard of any in recent decades! For instance, when Fool Gospel (sic) Christians are SICK, even DYING, they SAY: "I AM WELL!" "I AM STRONG!" Even when checked in to the Hospital, and medicated thoroughly. This denotes IGNORANCE OF THE BIBLE and of FAITH. I am devoted Christian, but the way we allow religion and faith kill us is amazing! You are NOT a "DEVOTED CHRISTIAN," unless you mean that you are devoted to HYPOCRISY. Many Churches are exactly like that. They HATE Churches that BELIEVE IN FAITH, and ENVY Christians who GET RESULTS. The Roman Catholic Church and EVANGELICAL Movements, for instance. You board a vehicle from a motor park, with driver, and instead of trying to check and ask questions if the driver is qualified, licensed, fit, not under alcoholic influence we’ll rather prefer to donate monies to fake preachers who board to tell you how people die on road accidents because they did not donate monies to pastors. They preach and tell you how to cover the driver, vehicle, tyres and steering with the blood of Jesus, and we all shout a loud ‘Amen’. Why do we derive joy in looking for witches and wizards, when we fail to do the primary things to guaranty our safety? For how long can the blood of Jesus allow decrepit vehicles convey us from Abuja toLagos? I will prefer we have technical experts visit motor parks, instead of fake pastors, and sensitise passengers on how to spot inexperienced, unlicensed or drunk drivers, and what to check out for before boarding any commercial vehicle. They should advice technically on the conditions of vehicles before going on the roads. The bad side is that Nigerians are not good in voluntary assignments that do not pay and road users will not be willing to give tips to such volunteers. They prefer to give to men of God who threaten them with hell fire and dangers. This is why I prefer to fly when on long trips, because the road transport industry and system in Nigeria is suicide mission, and has little or no functional regulatory body and so anyone can bring any vehicle and anyone as driver. Admittedly, our airways are not as safe, however, the industry is run by highly specialised professionals who have so much at stake in the event of any accident. Created in February 1988, the Federal Road Safety Commission, FRSC, which functions generally relates to making the highway safe for motorists and other road users, has failed and its purpose almost defeated. A similar body, the Vehicle Inspection Office Driver and Vehicle Licensing Administration (VIO-DVLA) which primary aim is to standardise drivers’ license certification process and maintain a database of certified drivers and vehicles for the enforcement of road traffic laws in Nigeria, has also not lived up to expectations. As the rate of road accidents increase in Nigeria on daily basis, it becomes urgent that the government looks into existing regulatory bodies or create new ones and mandate them to work closely with road transport companies. I appeal we separate religion/faith from reality (science and technology) because if we have good vehicles, good and fit drivers and new tyres, the rate of our road accidents on our roads will reduce, while a large amount of the blood of Jesus would be saved for better things. We all know speed is a major factor in many accidents. However, speeding causes not all accidents and not all accidents are preventable. Yet there are steps you can take to help prevent accidents. These include driving slowly when the weather is bad. Replace worn tyres and brakes as needed. Keep windshield washer fluid full and change out windshield wipers on a regular basis. Not only do seatbelts keep you safe in an accident, it will help avoid accidents as well. Seatbelts will hold you in place during an aggressive manouvre. Back off and do not tailgate or allow others to tailgate you. Do not assume the other vehicles will stop just because the light is red.Do not drive behind an 18-wheeler on the highway. A blown tyre can cause an accident. Do not rely on your mirrors when making a lane change. All vehicles have “blind spots” in which your mirrors cannot see. Do not ride in the blind spots of other vehicles. Always keep your windshield wipers going in the rain. Defrost your windshield to keep it from fogging up. Turn on your headlights to help others to see you–this is also the law in some states. It is always best to have a “designated driver”. Never drive after you have had alcoholic beverages. Even one beer can alter your ability to drive safely. Always use your signal, even if you think no one is there. When changing lanes on the freeway, do not signal as an afterthought or during the lane change. Signal at least a couple of seconds in advance so others know what you are going to do before you do it.
