No 15 ehn

The Bible verse (Prov 19 vs 13 ) does not relate to the statement on no 18

Be silent when the human race is about to be decimated and dominated forever. The conspiracy of silence and let grace abide and continue as we destroy ourselves and the planet.

A fish with it's mouth closed never get caught!

I'm silently saying how amazing this is

No please

iCauseTrouble:
Should we also be silent when we have a bad government like Buhari?

God bless

Ok.. MOST are right! Some are contradictory. SOME wont work here in Nigeria. i.e 18.
Imagine you are in a bus and the driver is driving recklessly and you warned him ONLY once about his reckless driving but he didnt heed your warning, he tried overtaking and everything went bad but you luckily managed to survive but with lots of physical evidence to tell a tale(lemme out it that way). Trust me! You'll have been sorry for not being persistent on warning him.
In some cases you have to become a talkactive especialky here in nigeria.
"Knowledge is one thing but knowing when and how to apply it is another thing"

You just had to find the exceptions.

Be silent when them beat your club

if I follow every rule or situation listed above, I'd be silent for life, infact I will never utter a word again.

I know the godly wants us to shut up but we won't.

They already confessed in 1 Corinthians 8:11 that hearing our knowledge destroys them.

So let us continue sharing Satanic knowledge and wisdom and drive naked stupidity out of our rock garden.

Though am not a church goer, I totally agree with this, talking unnecessarily will always put you in trouble

God bless you for this

Locha247, thank you.

Be silent if you already said it more than one time

I hear you. But check this.....if you told him twice.... and there is no change... why would you think if you told him a hundred times it would make a difference? Is either you are on ignore... or the driver may be deaf. Be silent on that.... getting him to drive responsibly... find another way... like telling the driver you're getting off.

@ topic...points to note... make a whole lot of sense.

Nice one. If only we could do all that is listed there... A lot of unnecessary issues would be avoided

very good

Nice one...but the Bible verses shaa

Lol..I am not for the attention. I love and like a lots of honest and reality proven posts here too.. I am also open to corrections. Maybe i will reduce my sensitivity to exceptions. I may be wrong but think about it. A lot of Nigerians here on nairaland often build their mentality to some viral posts with lots of public approval. Unfortunately, some publicly accepted knowledge arent applicable in all situations and some unknowingly can ruin one in so many ways if care is not taken. I've had my experience.
Just trying to help people here nothing ELSE.
