Why Do You Go To Church When Your Work & Business Thrive On Fraud? by ENGINEERG(m): 7:06am On Sep 26, 2021
As a Nigerian, most work and businesses our people do everyday to make money is on fraud , but they won't still miss the church.
Isn't it exercise in futility?
Can we deceive God?
Is it now just like a culture?
You go to church on Sunday, and you know you will commit sins on Monday to Saturday. Its just the way of life.
But not everyone is guilty of this, but am sure 99% of Nigeria are guilty of this.

Let me just name a few.

For Boys- You do Yahoo Yahoo- you lie and fraud your client, you are in cultism, you drink alcohol, you gamble, you fornicate

Govt/company worker- you collect kickback, you won't remit all money, you collect bribe before doing your work, you don't go to work or late to work.

Ladies- you do olosho, you use kayamata on men

Businessmen- you dubiously inflate price of goods, you sell fake as original, you bribe to get contract, you do sample with quality material but you deliver substandard job.You cheat govt in paying tax.

Politicians- you don't do your promise, you embezzle everyday, you kill or lie againt your opponents.

Technicians- you lie on parts and material, you do quotation using quality but when you get money, you buy cheap material. You bribe to get work, you steal other material of client.

NO MATTER YOUR WORK, GOD KNOWS YOU BETTER AND YOU CAN NEVER DECEIVE GOD

According to Jesus Christ, those who belong to Him are those who work, not for food that perishes - Genesis 3 vs 18 - 19 - but instead those who work for food that endures to Eternity which only Jesus Christ can give.
26 He answered, “Why are you looking for me? Is it because you saw miraculous signs? The truth is, you are looking for me because you ate the bread and were satisfied.
27 But earthly food spoils and ruins. So don’t work to get that kind of food. But work to get the food that stays good and gives you eternal life. The Son of Man will give you that food. He is the only one qualified by God the Father to give it to you.” - John 6 vs 25 - 29
So, it is not just those whose jobs engage them in the carrying out fraudulent activities that are implicated as not being of sin, all those who sweat for food that perishes, no matter how honest they believe their occupations , are also of sin against God. undecided

Pretty much everyone who lives according to God's curse against man as stated in Genesis 3 vs 14 - 22, is cursed, hence against God. undecided

Unfortunately, the Church has changed from doing the work of God to focusing on earthly things (Mammon worshipping) we like been deceived because we are too lazy to read......

That is the reason you see all sorts of atrocities in the society today even in the churches...
People no longer go to church for purpose of serving/love for God, but for selfishness/greed that is why majority are been deceived

Again, so long as you work according to the curse in Genesis 3 vs 18 - 19 .I.e. you work for food that spoils, you are still not of God. Those who belong to Jesus Christ do not work for food that spoils but instead for food that endures to Eternity which only Jesus Christ can give - John 6 vs 25 - 29 undecided

If you feel this is rubbish, try to intelligently counter what I have stated then.. undecided

You eat food, as it says in Matthew 6 vs 25 - 34. undecided

It is how you obtain that food, and the other things you need that changes - John 6 vs 25 - 29. Rather than slaving away under the sun to provide for yourself, you instead do what God wants and He does the proving, just as He said He will in Matthew 6 vs 25 - 34 undecided
