Who Thought A Tanker Driver Could Remind Us Of Christ?

Considering the notoriety and recklessness of heavy duty motor drivers in this country, those driving for Dangote easily come to mind, who could have seen it coming that a tanker driver would want to sacrifice his own life to save the life of others?

The man called Mr Otarigho said: “I decided to take the risk because, as a native of this community, I do not want to be linked with a disaster that claimed lives and destroyed properties.

“I decided to die alone. Hence, I told my motorboy to jump out of the burning vehicle,“ he added.

Mr Otarigho who said this was a husband and father of several kids, yet he didn't think of himself or his own life, but how to save the life of others when he found them in a dangerous situation even if he lost his life in the process.

Now he didn't only save the life of others but he also came out alive from the dangerous situation. He believed it was a miracle for him to do so after making his decision to die alone, hence his giving thanks to God in appreciation of what God did for him to keep him alive.

I 100% agree with Mr Otarigho, the tanker driver, that it's indeed a miracle he made it out alive. I believe heaven was moved by his Christlike sacrificial decision, and hence made the impossible to become possible for him to live to tell his story.

Today everyone is calling the tanker driver a hero but I believe It shouldn't just stop at that, but they should also learn a thing or two from him.

The man himself has Someone he calls a Hero, but he didn't just stop there, he followed the example of His Hero and hence also put his life in the line to save the lives of others, that why he's also called a hero today.

His Hero is Jesus Christ, the greatest Hero of all time who died to save humans from the danger of hell fire.

He went to hell fire and through hell fire Himself so humans wouldn't have to go to hell themselves and experience such torment.

The world needs more people who follow Christ's example like the tanker driver to save more human lives and to make the world a better place.

God bless.

Much respect goes to all those who put their lives on the line to save other people's lives.

Being someone who lives a sacrificial life myself, I am able to empathize with such ones because i know what it entails and that it's not easy at all. That's why i have huge respect for them and really appreciate their efforts.

May God bless and keep ya'll safe as He did the tanker driver. In Jesus name.

What a humanitarian.

Lol, the man drove the truck knowing that he could die and that'll be the end of him.

Your Jesus who is also god, who is also omniscient, decided to die a death no one asked for, only to come back to life 3 days later and ascend into paradise, all in a bid to "wash away" sins. A meaningless sacrifice, especially when sin is still very much present in everyone.

It's not a sacrifice if you planned the whole thing from the beginning. Nobody send you message before.

Yet Jesus inspired the man to do good as He's inspired many others, but who has your hero (probably spider man) inspired?

You should respect Jesus if not for anything else, as least for the extent to which He inspires people to do good to others.

He's inspired some of the kindest humans that have ever lived.

Nothing compares to God's love

Both the Jesus and Spider-Man are fictional characters and anyone can claim to be inspired by them because Spider-Man also does good to others.
Anyways, like I said, according to the story, the character Jesus AKA God, had to die only to resurrect after some days so as to exonerate himself from the mess he created, thereby making people feel guilty for his death, as if anybody send the guy message in the first place.
You can say all you want, but deep down you know that the story ain't clear.

The point is that you can't deny the fact that regardless, Jesus has inspired more people to do good more than any one you know or respect.

So if you really cared about humanity as you claim, the least you could do is to show him some respect.

If you're talking about the tanker driver and not the fictional character, yeah sure.

One day you would have a change of heart and Jesus would also become your Hero. Trust me.
