" You need to know the church can never rise to start growing the world economically!!""

And the Catholic church made 95 billion dollars pure profit in 2015??

And Oyedepo makes Millions of dollars annually n uses the money to buy fleet of cars n private jets??

Lmao.

Well you can call those ones but let's go back to the Bible, Jesus, the book of Acts and the epistles of Paul, Peter, John will truly give you a better clue of what the church is.

Let me quote some;



1 John 2 King James Version (KJV)


15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.



1 Peter 1 King James Version (KJV)

23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:

25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.



Ephesians 2 King James Version (KJV)

2 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.


Also Jesus always said that his kingdom was not according to the kingdom of this world.


You can mention a church or an individual. But they are not God. Everything must be judged according to God's standards not mans.
That's why Jesus told us that the road that leads to life is very narrow and only very few find it.

Many people focus only on things of this world neglecting there soul. Jesus said what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul. A man's Soul is worth more than 100trillion dollars.

And don't tell me God cannot do it, He did it before during the time of Noah, only him and his household was saved, while God judged entire mankind in his era.

""Tell us where you belong as well as their contributions to this country.""

What exactly will u do with this information

Will it also help Christianity to develop Nigeria ? ?

"" Your hatred for Christianity can take you no where.""

Doesn't that sound very stupid to u
Read it again.

""You have not substantiated your point with facts and figures""

Wen I give u ur statistics, What exactly would u do with it?




""Join out train of those who grow the nation from the church.""

D church that has completely failed to take care of the poor, widows, orphans, fatherless, motherless among dem are growing Nigeria?? - U must be smoking a carefully selected number of dried animal dung .

The day the church will rise n start growing the world economically, Poverty will come to an end worldwide.

You need to know the church can never rise to start growing the world economically!!

The church was never called to do that. The church is called to be different. The system of the world is already judged and it will pass away.

The poverty we see is because of the evil world system. God never intended poverty, infact God is not poor at all.
So the church is called to be different from the world.

Acidosis:
This post lacks an iota of sense.

..more like blaming all PhD holders and academicians because GEJ P.hD., in your words, failed.

How do you guys sit down to type this kind of post? Sometimes I do wonder the essence of primary and secondary education in Nigeria.

They are all the product of our moribund academic system. I shake my head......

A very nice article!!

People will always blame christians, but many of them have never impacted a soul around them.

You are the one that even have time for them; just focus on the great things you are doing.


People can continue all their complaints but let me end with quote from one of my great philosophers;

You don't win an Olympic gold by just four weeks training. Great law firms, great carriers, great companies, great nations are all built the same way; by dedication, commitment, vision and daily action.



People should continue complaining while the rest of the world leave Africa behind. Underdevelopment and backwardness is the order of the day in Africa. Yet many are still laughing or joking about it not knowing the consequences of what is facing this continent.

Organism000:
Only real men like you can understand. Not people like Timaya who have sex after smoking weed and I am mean 2 minutes sex and a pregnancy is formed and then he takes the baby and sees himself as a man. There is no real man when there is no woman under your control.

People need to tell Timaya that to be called a Man, you must have a woman, because to be called a Husband, you have a wife. Who ever has a woman understand why he needs to congratulate himself, it is not easy being a husband, not some bachelor running around with multiple sex partners and being responsible for none.

I mean what does it take to raise a child without a mother, at the long run the child grows up without tolerance and patience lessons of life, because the Father was an intolerant bachelor who is so selfish that he does not want to keep one woman under his roof and tolerate her.

Timaya is not a fool, he is less than that. That is what happens when someone sings about Ukwu all the time and walks like a catfish.

On another note, I believe marrying and living with a woman most of all teaches you patience and forbearance. You will learn to forbear a lot, and with time when you both begin to understand each other more then the relationship is enjoyed more.

Moreover you must stay put. There are things that will make you to quit but if you stay put, you will get better. Exception though is when you are married to a devil!!!

Organism000:
Making a baby is the easiest thing in the world. Being a father is very easy.

Being a husband is the most difficult thing. Timaya needs to understand that the reason he is running away from marriage is what defines a real man.

Some of us who are married and still play, are the most sophisticated human. Only a happy husband will relate to this.

We are talking about having a woman in your home, under the same roof, and women know who they are, so they respect us for being excellent partners.

All baby-daddies including Timaya should shut the hell up. Until you are married and have a happy woman under your roof, you apre not considered a REAL MAN.

Bros I throw way big salute for you!!

Yours is the best comment!!!

Until a man live with a woman under one roof as husband and wife in peace. That man never start life.


Living with a woman no easy at all talkless of when you marry one. Especially this modern day ones.
Example my woman need money, she no tell me, I found out, she is now waiting for me to beg her to take the money. My money oo she wants to spend, but I will still beg her to accept my money. That's woman for you.........

Happy birthday mummy G O. Thank you for standing by the great Man of God all these years!!

To God be the glory. They were in my prayers and in millions of people around the world. And Baba God answered!!

The same way he will hear our cry about Nigeria. Amen!!

.thank God I got my nysc exemption certificate

It took me almost 5 years but I finally got the original from nysc with my face on it.

How can she be in government position without it. This is a very big case ooo! B

tribalism is a very bad thing. look how people are fighting over intermarriage, nawa for blacks.

A young woman saw a man that makes her happy and you have turned it to tribal bashing.

Me I be igbo man, may end up before the year ends with a lady from kogi. Previously brought my fellow Anambra girl but my dad no one use ear hear that.
I even quarreled seriously with my dad about it but later began to see what they were seeing.

This present kogi girl is a complete wife material, she is even a virgin, although sometimes I worry about my childrens ikwunne mothers place being non igbo. But am presently fasting and praying to get the final divine direction. Once God gives me green light. Then I am wifing that girl one time. And she herself so much wants to be my wife, na me dey dull. But once I finish the prayer I am doing, na marriage straight.

Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body [a]and in your spirit, which are God’s.

1 Corinthians 6:18-20 New King James Version

1 Corinthians 6:18 King James Version (KJV)
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

May God bless you for highlighting this blessed scriptures. Many people think that their body belongs to them. Therefore they use it anyhow, defilling and miss using it.

Our bodies is a very beautiful gift from God. And each man will give account concerning the use of their body before God.


May God help us and show us the way to glorify him with our body by using it the right way. Amen!!

Happy birthday sir

What a celebration. May we live up to this your age. Amen!!

Lux fiat, show the light.

Proudly a Dengramite!!

Who hyped Lagos for you? The fact is, there's a reason for its high population; people are making money, it's a costal city, it's also a border state where goods and services flow in easily from outside the country so commodities are cheaper, labor is cheaper and houses are cheaper than Abuja. There's nothing over hyped about that, it's fact.

I still stand by my word, Lagos is over hyped. The stress level in that city is so something else.

May be it's because I have lived in other places in Nigeria and overseas so I give my own judgement.

anigbajumo:

angelboy01:
I Am not really good at writing a composition but the whole thing started around last year November when I lost my job at a reputable company, things became really hard that my ex wife started with her attitude, someone I helped through her schooling, even opened a shop for her after our wedding.

She started losing interest in me because I was broke and there was no more love because I couldn't meet up to her demands. She became the bread winner around that time, things didn't go as expected for me, I needed to do a lot of things even pay for the rented apartment we were in and the landlord came with the eviction letter.

Things became really tough that she wasn't sleeping at home anymore, she would leave home for days and come back home and give me some little change and leave again, she started to live with her aunt and I became so lonely and useless in her eyes.

Eventually when I came up with the apartment money and we paid I decided I wasn't going to stay with her for a while and go out and look for a job, so as to avoid fight and arguments. She later called me that her boss from the USA was back and she was to go and meet him because they had a meeting to do so I said OK since I usually speak and text with his boss so I allowed her to go. So after I left home I got a job and I frequented coming home to see her and my baby. I later found out she began to lock her phone and I asked her for the password she wouldn't give it to me so I began to suspect her.

One day I eventually found the password and I unlocked it while she was asleep. I found out through a chat she had with her friend that she had sex with her said boss and she even bought a land without telling me all through the years we were together. I felt so betrayed and angry. I woke her up and asked her about it and she started crying and begging me.

I left home angrily and jilted. I was so devastated that I smoked a lot of weed that day and drank so much beer. I called my mom explained to her and later told her mom too. The next day her mom called me that she wanted to poison herself because of what she did. I sent her boss a message on WhatsApp and that one didn't even answer me because he knew what he did with my ex wife.

It's been months now since this happened and her mom calls me almost everyday begging me to forgive and forget but how do I forget, it's not easy for me because I can be having sex with her and be seeing her boss face.

I blocked her on Facebook and whatsapp but didn't block her calls or text message because of my baby when I need to send upkeep money. She calls me but I don't pick up. I know that I can't be with her anymore but she has the wedding certificate we got at the court wedding. I told her to give the photocopy of the certificate to my mom but she wouldn't do it.

Guys the reason why I wrote this is who has an idea on how to go about a divorce without the certificate because someone told me the certificate is important for the divorce. I don't know anything about it and my uncle even said the divorce will cost me a lot of money about 650k. I don't know it that's true too. Lol.

Please guys help out here. I have the proof of the chat and the audio conversation of the sex escapade with her boss so that will help in the court. My lovely daughter is 2 years now. How do I even collect my daughter from her. I have left all my property's for her because of my daughter and am starting my life afresh. Will the court be able to grant me my daughters custody although am not ready to train her myself but I have my mom who can do that for me.

In addition to all of this guy's if your girl or woman passwords her phone and doesn't show you her password be very careful she might be cheating because not only did I find out she had sex with her boss I also found out she was also on some random social media nonsense talking to some random guys and all that and that she also bought a land without telling me for 3 years we were together.

Thanks for learning from my story and God bless you guys.

Mr man, it's painful but you have to forgive your wife. I mean every word of it. Forgive her and take her back.

All these things was as a result of hardship. Please do forgive her.

DONADAMS:
overhyped in what way?

I think Lagos is over hyped!! Too much stress, expensive and high cost of living if you want a neat environment, etc

And people are not even making even the money. Lagos is over hyped.

People are saying Abuja, Lagos but there are other lovely towns in this country were people are doing very well, making so much money and less stress.

The problem is greed and no honesty. Cravings for money. If not nnpc should be scraped. Petrobras, petronas of Malaysia, cnooc Chinese national oil company and exonmobil etc are all doing well.

No refineries, so we import every fuel we consume. Wait until dangote finish his refinery, he will pocket this whole nation.

emelda86:
My mama taught me how to take care of my hubby abeg thus advice no follow Sam Sam...

I will cook his meals so far he is my hubby
When he comes back, I'll gladly welcome him back
Plant a sweet kiss on his lips
Help him to the room UnCloth him & UnCloth myself too
Give him sweet akpako in the bathroom
Come out dish his food eat with him & the rest is history.

This is exactly the way a wise woman is supposed to run her home.
A man that has this kind of home rearly cheats. If he does, then he is far from redemption.

Moreover I believe a man should be domesticated. Know how to cook, wash, keep house clean and take care of a baby!! And I as man is not lacking in any of these.


But a lot of guys are not. My sisters husband can't boil a hot water. When he is traveling even his clothes is packed for him. Although God favored him in that he is chairman, big man, get money. If he wasn't rich, I wonder how it would be for him.

But in my house we are domesticated. Recently went to visit my parents, mom went to visit my sister in Lagos. Only my dad in the whole big house. But dad was preparing the food we eat. Sometimes he will even set it on dinning and call me. It was a wonderful time. Both of us gisted very well. Bonded very well. I have never felt like this before. I learned so much from him. He told me everything about his life. I learned so much about life. Very deep things, wisdom, fear of God and godliness. I really thank God.

Wow.

Wow longest time!! Babyosisi

All destinies are not the same. He is still alive, strong, healthy, still very very comfortable. So that's why he is thankful to God.

Some people younger than him, never tasted the good things of life he did. So quit your unnecessary comparison. This is our major problem. It's foolish to compare yourself, just be thankful and grateful to God for wherever you find yourself in life. Life and health is the greatest gift from God.

Nothing really changes after marriage, except maybe personal appearance. You both get older and fatter /slimmer depending on financial and health choices.

Many of the issues that will impact a marriage will already be noticed during courtship, but because we are in love, we push them under the table and believe that the spouse will change, but people hardly change except they really want to.

The point is that, at any stage in the marriage, we can CHOOSE to be more or less affectionate, more or less open financially etc. It's not marriage itself that brings the changes but our personal choices.

I know because I've been married for quite a long while

That's very powerful, the choices we make!!!

So we should rather make the right choice!!

Also I have discovered that we can truly make our lives masterpiece, a good example of emulation if we make up our mind and make the right choices.

tabithababy:
I don't understand why a woman will forgo all what she has worked for in her youth days just to please a man that can throw you out of his life at any time

Very unfortunate situation .. After all the money her parent must have spent to make sure she is a literate

Haaaa... Aye le .. Ibosi o

That's why she married. Although it will take a selfless and very understanding man, a God-fearing man to ensure he is very good to his wife. Although quite a lot of men are very selfish. But in all prayers before marriage is the key so that you don't end up with a bad husband.



But the question is do you pray and seek God? Have you prepared yourself for marriage not for wedding Because many prepare for wedding which is just a day, but are not prepared for marriage itself!! Thereby making serious mistake and blunder.

And I laugh at men that have time to even engage some of this misinformed ones here. If you are wise as a man, you already know what you want for your family.


Raised by a highly educated parents (dad a retired surgeon, mum a retired chief nursing officer, that reached peak of nursing, HOD health for state government for years)

But my sweet mum was and is still totally submitted to her loving husband. They are still alive, like inseparable twins.
Had 5 girls and raised them to be obedient and submitted to their husbands. 2 are doctors, others well read professionals well settled in their husbands homes.

Abeg men be very wise. Avoid all these opinionated ones if you want to live long. Or else na serious problem for your head. Will even affect bringing up your children.

In Spain the child bears both the mother and Father's name

For instance, Marco Asensio Willemsen is his name and Willemson is gotten from his mother "Maria Willemsen"

Also Oxlade-Chamberlain contains both his father and mother's name so is Maitland Niles and Alexander-Arnold

"Primarily responsible for leadership" isn't sex based, majority of those that adopted it did for cultural reasons and women have been pushing back against such ideas recently. Who's the president of Germany? I bet most Nairalanders don't know Germany has a president (neither did I till he visited Nigeria last year or so) who's a man but they all know Angela Merkel who's the chancellor

Primary provider depends on the financial level of both the man and the woman, since most Nigerians and Africans have families in which the woman doesn't even work let alone earn money its a man but many families developed nations have women as primary providers and their families are living peacefully and fine, its all understanding

I don't know what you mean by "Special Recognition"

Yes, Men are the head of most homes and a huge reason for this is that almost all religions and cultures support the idea but the pendulum has been swinging a bit in recent years compared to millennia ago

From now till next 1000 years, man will still be head and director in relationships.

It's nature, and there is nothing that can change it. And our women need to understand this.

Irrespective of all these feminist movement recently, most women can't feel fulfilled if they don't have a man in their life. And that is the right thing to do. Because women are meant to be loved, cherished, cared for and pampered . And I mean good and virtuous women, oh.

LivingFree:
I just laugh at you

Well you can laugh at me afterall I'm a mere mortal, but whatever God says stands. No matter what we try, we are just mere mortals.

LivingFree:
Why do people have this need to lead and be lead

You can’t stand alone? There will be zero leaders in our home! Everyone will have equal say and their opinions and wishes will be respected by all. To death with the old ways and embrace the new way of life. All things and people matter

Story story story. Man is and will always be leader. That's how God, nature made it.
And none of you can change it. Even 1000 years from now.


Despite whatever happening women have no other option than to submit to the headship of a man. And we men have no option than to love our women!! That's how it's to be

Kolping:
1 Corinthians 11:3 King James Version (KJV)
"But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God."

You can say that again. That's Gods standard, the maker, owner and possessor of heaven and earth and all in it. You cannot argue with Him, you a mere mortal with just breath in your nostrils.
Only what He declares stands.
I just laugh at human beings.

Dude you need God
You need divine intervention
Because your destiny has been misdirected
Only God's help will deliver you from this debacle.


Your job was stressful, but it was your pride. But now no dignity. You have been caged. My dear, God, intensive praying can lose the unseen chains and spell you are under.


You need God to get a new job and start all over again. To direct your home rightly. You need God.

I laugh when I see many young men brag about money, attraction, loads of sex. I normally laugh. How old are most of the people commenting??

Fear women!!

Women have ruined powerful kings, empires, and also women have also built up powerful men and empires too. And most of the kids that comment on Nairaland have never possessed $1000 in their life.

I say it again if you are not yet married, look very well before you leap.

Donald3d:

Women wahala no be here, it takes patience and learning to read emotions, facial expressions , physchology.Its not a easy something .
Sometimes :
Yes means Yes
Yes means maybe
Yes means No
No means No
No means maybe
No also means Yes

Women have defied all sense of logic, but they are very awesome beings if you find the right one and make her a queen, she would make you a king .
As I always say, a woman has a God given ability to push you to success and endless wealth , or push you to failure or the valley of death...
Stay away from confused girls, be around the ones who have a direction for their life , and most importantly know what they want !
Choose wisely

Thanks so much bro!!
Many don't know that the woman a man marries is the most important decision you will ever make in life.
Your survival, success, wealth and that of your subsequent generations solely depend on the woman you marry.

Those that have not married yet, better look well. Women full everywhere but wifes are rare
