Dear Nairalanders, precisely 7 years ago, someone who was in the habit of borrowing and paying up late collected 5,000 naira from me with the promise of paying within 2 weeks. However, he failed to pay for over 2 months and avoided passing through my street to prevent me from confronting him about the debt.

I was happy to avoid him because I knew if he successfully paid the debt, he would surely come back to ask for more. One fateful Friday, on my way to the restaurant, I saw him fully focused on his phone (don't know if he did that to avoid communicating with me). I Immediately changed direction to prevent us meeting. Well, THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW HIM. Two days later, he died on the road to a missionary outreach. I was shocked and sad not because I lost that money, but because the Bible says "owe no man anything.. ." ROM 13:8. I have since forgiven the debt.

Do you think that debt would in anyway affect him considering he was a good, born again Christian?
