Why will you even think something "Natural" or conventional is a crazy preference

You prefer artificial to natural instead of sticking to your preference you parade yourself as better off .. thats lame

Dress pass Idris Elba or jenner kardashian won't earn you chair next to God, smelling lazarus made heaven

can't make sense of anything you spewing bro, come to my church in unilag n see people dress, even MFm wey carry fire for head people dress elegant.

Don't sit in one place and make lame generalization, the Agbada nd shoe my pastor wore yesterday still dey my head, if you don't come out you will only see life from the angle you are holed up

Please don't quote me when u don't understand what u are quoting, I was referring to op rant about his mother shabby and raggy dressing in the name of church one sided preaching

I love natural pass you self, but wearing rags and dressing shabbily isn't part of dressing natural, it's plain madness, your general overseers and their family don't dress shabbily, so don't be brainwashed

Your mother has found Christ so its natural for her to do away with the things of the world. Beauty has different standards for different people so if she has peace within herself for how she looks who are you to question her?
I have seen billionaires and millionaires in the Lords chosen who maintain a modest lifestyle and don't go around dressing loudly.
We are the light of the world as Christians and we must not conform to the beauty standards of a dying morally decayed world.
I pray the Lord opens your eyes to see. Those attachments and all is like telling God he did not make you the way you want. People are white, black, Hispanic, Arabs and Asians for a reason. Each one should maintain their identity and not try to look like the other. Stay black if you are black and white if you are white.

Billionaires in Chosen?

Like who?

Dangote, Bua or Adenuga?

I guess you don't shave your armpits or use deodorants too?

You most likely would have some B.O
It is what it is.

Even Monkeys groom themselves.

If God wanted us to be as he made us, why do we clip our nails, brush our teeth, have showers?

So if a women goes bald, she cannot wear a wig because it is not her hair.
Or if a woman has hair that is difficult to maintain, like the black womans' curly hair?

You would rather she cut it, than wear weave-on?

Pharisee!

Esther 2:12 CEV
The young women were given beauty treatments for one whole year. The first six months their skin was rubbed with olive oil and myrrh, and the last six months it was treated with perfumes and cosmetics. Then each of them spent the night alone with King Xerxes.




You are welcome

What version is this?

Show me where Esther wore them in a King James Version.

Even the version he quoted is talking about "treatment"....this has to do with treatment of their skin - applying oil etc for their skin to look good. These does not have anything to do with makeup(painting the face, lips, nails etc)....just like taking our bath, applying vaseline(treatment) etc on our skin

My ever charming mom has stopped looking good like she used to eversince she joined a particular church in the early part of 2021.

Prior to that time, mom was a lover of good wears. She used to wear nice jewelries to complement her dressing. Nowadays, the story is no longer the same. She has changed completely and she is now a shadow of her former self. She would not make her hair with weavon or attachment, or wear wig or makeup like she used to do. She now uses thread to plait her hair which makes her look very unlike her and very unattractive.

When I travelled home during Christmas, I nearly wept when I saw her. From her head to her toe, she was completely off. No sense of style at all. Just regular clothes and slippers even when she is going out for an event.

What do we do? The church she joined is THE LORD'S CHOSEN. And dad says she has asked her to stop attending the church but she refused. Mom is a retired nurse and she is 62 years old. I am her last child and I and my siblings are doing everything possible to make her look good. Money is not the problem. She is just simply refused to listen to anybody.


Your mom has been inducted into those church.

Oga no mind them.

They used to make the women lie over cane chairs and have incense put under them.

After they do this for months, the women will only smell like the incense.

Or do they think the King of the World in those days would have married an Mgbeke?

I just tire!

What is sinful in smelling good?!

What?!

I can used air-freshner in a room, but cannot use deodorant on my body?

I believe She is caught up in a cycle of religious delusions that keep her from wanting to take care of herself as she used to.... not an easy problem to disconnect those caught in them. This is not atypical of the particular cult you said she is a part of there. There are over 47000 cults denominations within the religion of Christianity and each with varying levels of delusions to offer. Lord's Chosen offers its members delusions on the level found with dangerous cults. The only way I think to break such is to prove the falsehood of the particular delusions which she holds to. lipsrsealed

At 62, what kind of weavon and wig do you want her to continue wearing, she's trying to reconnect to her creator try and understand her, in as much as she's looking neat and smells nice. Please respect her wish.

Esther 2:12

‭‭Esther‬ ‭2:12‬ ‭KJV‬‬
[12] Now when every maid's turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the womenwink

This is King James Version, the version that all churches use to preach their sermons. There is no place here where Esther wore gold or make-up.

I am all for females looking good and modest. But less than two months ago, Nairaland males gathered to tell us women look more beautiful and approachable with their natural hair. They said we should go back to the days we rocked afro, kiko and allback. OP's mum is rocking her thread (kiko). I want to believe she is looking beautiful and I am surprised you think women without artificial hair look unkempt and uncatered for. Many NL guys said that is the kind of babes they love.
Going natural Doesn’t mean you should go old school na. Me I love ladies natural hair infact I like the feel of it but it doesn't mean you should leave the hair rough or go plait them grandma thread style. Though I sometimes see reasons with the women folks because they do complain that natural hair is hard to care for. On the makeup aspect I love semi natural makeup, like those that matches your skin tone with nice lipstick and eye make up to match not those masked type make, it is totally disgusting.

It will take a while for her to come back to her true self. Hypnosis from Christ Chosen is super strong...

It will take another pastor to talk her out of it. They have given her a prophesy that has scared her to de@th.

I know someone who joined the church and was told that her loving father is behind her setbacks. Not long after she joined the church her father died. Till today, she believes the church helped her k!ll her father through fasting and prayers.

Read, research...

Read about ancient middle-eastern culture.

It says she had 12 months of purification according to the manner of women.

They bathed this woman in PERFUME for a WHOLE YEAR.
A WHOLE YEAR!

When she entered a room, it smelled good.
When she left a room, for a long time afterwards, it smelled good.

The prepared her for a whole year to meet the King, for one night.

So if thr women of that time wore jewelry and painted their faces, and the Bible says she was prepared in that manner (of women), how come Esther did not?

Even the Men wore jewelry.
Their Crown was jewelry.
Their Armour had jewelry
Their swords had jewelry.
Some of them wore ear-rings.

How much more their women.
