Instead of working hard for your money, see what you guys are discussing.

So irritating.

Nairaland GeneralSelfies, How Far Should You Go? by Dyoungstar(op): 7:49pm On Mar 18, 2015
By Yetunde Arebi
I am not a great fan of the social media by any means. I am shy, in fact, afraid of them. For me, their disadvantage far outweighs the merits. one must therefore be very careful, especially if, like me, you don’t really have a good knowledge of it.
Better safe than sorry is my watch word concerning such matters. Until very recently, when I hooked up on the WhatsApp, I only could allow myself the luxury of the Blackberry Messenger. For me, the Facebook as well as several similar platforms were a no go area.
I joined Facebook and Linkedin late last year on the prompting of my son, who insisted after the public presentation of my book, Youth, Sex and Wellbeing, that they were my best bets at  promoting it. Even as I write, I am yet to take any step in actualising that. I can count the number of times I’ve visited both platforms on my fingertips, I’m only there when it’s absolutely necessary.  I only discovered in the last few days that I could actually be more comfortable using the Linkedin services, even as my fears of the Facebook has so far been justified even on the count of the hour.
On Thursday, October 23, after our Vanguard Women’s Roundtable Conference titled “The plight of women and children in the face of emerging Terrorism, which way forward?” Vanguard’s Administrative Manager, Victor Gotebve informed me that he had uploaded the pictures on his Facebook page. So, I decided to check the next day and thereafter, use the opportunity to update some of the information on my timeline too. The things I stumbled upon that day and subsequent visits thereafter have forced me to conclude that I am very naive or indeed a novice of some of the things happening around me.
The first headline that caught my attention was a posting on the currently running Big Brother game, directing one to click in to watch clips of the shower session of three of the housemates. My reaction was that we have outsmarted Multichoice as usual. Then, there was another link to watch a leaked video of a Nigerian undergraduate girl while strip dancing for her on-line lover. My reaction to this was, “are people still doing that kind of thing these days?”  Then doubt crawled in, the owner could be misinforming people just to drive traffic to the blog. Finally, out of curiosity, I decided to confirm. Boy, was it for real? The face of the young lady was not concealed in any way as she danced her heart out for the pleasure of whoever it was meant for before it hit the internet, her jigida or bebedi, glistening against the rays of light. Even as I pondered over the rational for this lady’s action, yet another link popped up on the same person’s page. This time, it directed friends to another link to see how a teenage boy shagged his sugar mummy lover and then posted it online.  Yet another link came up directing one to watch a school girl being pumped by her lover. Incidentally, this was quite dubious as it had no faces, only the sex organs in use were visible. This girl also had a set of jigida strings and a huge sense of patriotism as they bore the green and white colours of the Nigerian flag.
I logged back in on Sunday and the postings continued. There was another of a young lady who was being bumped doggy style and screaming on the top of her lungs. I wondered why since it was obvious that she was not being raped. This video however did not show the face of the guy and I guessed it might have been secretly recorded without the girl’s permission.  Then there were two other posting allegedly leaked on the internet by the girls in the pictures in a bid to up their clientele drive or to simply flaunt their impressive gifts from mother nature.
And finally, for the first time, I found the courage to see the hideous video of the torture of the two women in Ikotun area of Lagos who were alleged of stealing ordinary pepper. That marked my experience on Facebook last week. I intend to visit more often as a few other things also caught my attention.
I tried to analyse the content of the various links I viewed and several questions popped up in my mind. Apart from the pictures and videos purportedly posted by the owners, all  others showed only the faces of the women and not the guys. This as I have said did not seem right, unless, the men had edited themselves out and then deliberately posted the videos to hurt these poor girls. Should this be the case, why if I may ask?
For any female, prostitute or otherwise, it takes two to tango and you must have arrived at that level of UnCloth through some form of mutual agreement or concession of sort. Even a prostitute does not deserve to be secretly videoed and posted on the internet for everyone to see. That is wicked and definitely not part of the bargain.

However, this appears to be going on every day and no one seem capable of doing anything about it. The girls too hardly ever report until they are forced with no other option but to do so.
Sometimes last year, a young, female, undergraduate of a foremost Nigerian University was lured into an apartment somewhere on Lagos Island by a 300-level undergraduate of the same University who also happened to live in her neighbourhood. She was acquainted with the guy and though she’d refused his love request, they had maintained a cordial relationship. As soon as she stepped into the apartment, he’d pounced on her, tore off her clothes, beaten her blue and black, then violently raped her? As if this was not enough, he brought out his phone and took photographs of her naked body. He kept her locked up till the following day and raped her several times through the night. Before he allowed her out, he’d threatened to post her pictures on the internet, should she tell anyone what had transpired between them. To him, it was the only way to negotiate her silence.
Frightened beyond words, the young lady could only tell her mother that she was involved in an accident on her way home and fell off a moving bus which tore her clothes and left her with several cuts and bruises. Naturally, they had cared for her and everything seemed alright until a couple of days later.
An older relative had called asking to speak with the girl and if she was alright. Initially, she had told the guy that she was until he dropped the bombshell, why had she posted her naked photographs on the internet! The young girl thereafter confessed all that had happened to her and took her parents to the guy’s apartment.
In his confession at the Police Station, this guy disclosed that it was his friends who posted the pictures and not him. He had only narrated his “great achievement” to them and showed them the “trophies”, he never knew they would post them on the internet. The other guys were subsequently rounded up.
If one may ask, what was this girl’s offence that she should be dehumanised in such a manner? Is it now a crime to turn down a love request? There are many women who find it very difficult and painful to even engage in mutually consenting intercourse, not to think of going through the horror of being raped, then being videoed. A real case of adding salt on injury.
But same cannot be said for people who wilfully take selfies of their naked bodies and sexual activities, then post same on the internet for strangers to ogle at. If these videos were shot by the owners of the blogs or websites they were viewed on, then one can understand the commercial gain to be made in that instance. It is no secret that the sex industry is a multi billion Naira spinning trade across the world, Nigeria inclusive.
However, what is to gain for the ordinary individuals who shoot self staring porn videos or snap naked selfies and post them on these blogs and websites? As one of the links said, the “Ashawo” Port Harcourt babe desired to max on clientele. Even if it is intended to lure men, must their faces be shot with the pictures? What will happen when age and use begin to take its toll on the body and the face has become known as that of the notorious wench? Hmm!
Everyone, especially those in long distance relationships know how difficult it is managing a relationship were the lovers hardly see each other physically. One of the common ways such lovers use to engage each other’s attention is by exchanging selfies of sexual parts, especially by the female.
Selfies are photographs or videos taken of one’s self by one’s self. An innovation apparently made possible with the coming of camera phones with front cameras which enable users to take photographs or shoot videos of themselves without the help of another. Depending on preference of the owner or user, two or more people can feature in a selfie.  Another advantage of the front camera is that you no longer have to strain the eyes through a pin hole to find a good angle for your photographs, the wide screen of the phone allows you unlimited space to perfect whatever you want to do on the camera.
This DIY technology in photography has however taken sexual acts and perhaps pervasion to a new dimension. Many people indiscriminately take pictures of themselves in various states of UnCloth or sexual acts without thinking of the likely implications should they fall into wrong hands. The story of Anita Hogan’s published nude photographs still rings fresh in my memory. She had given her laptop in which the photographs were saved to a technician for repair. What about the story of a senior manager with one of the telecommunication giants and a married, female junior worker whose naked photographs graced the social media about four or so years ago? The duo had left home telling their respective partners they were attending a seminar in Badagry area of Lagos State. It took a lost memory card for the world to discover the kind of seminar they had attended.
The fear of internet hackers should be the beginning of wisdom for all internet users as information you push out there could be used against you at anytime.
 
 
Above all, the implications of this trend with regards to even legitimate relationships and sexual affairs are grave. The average lady, married or single needs to show great caution in terms of the kind of relationship she keeps and those she decides to share her body with. As with any relationship, you can only know your mind, you cannot know your partner’s. You can only love someone, you cannot determine if or how much the person will love you in return. If you must take pictures of your private parts, do so without your face showing. If you visit a lover and there is need for you to UnCloth, shine your eyes well, you never can tell. A guy once told me he records his extra marital affairs to help increase his sex drive with a wife who no longer turns him on.
And should a partner start insisting on a certain sexual position or direction, it’s your body too, you can always take a walk!
Do have a wonderful week!

Nairaland GeneralFidelity Bank Disburses N80m MSME Fund To Three Firms by Dyoungstar(op): 3:41pm On Mar 18, 2015
[b][size=18pt]By Babajide Komolafe[/size]


Fidelity Bank has disbursed N80 million to three firms under the N220 billion Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) fund.

The MSME fund was established by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) last year for lending to MSMEs at nine percent interest rate.
Speaking at the presentation of the fund to the beneficiaries, Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Fidelity Bank Plc, Mr. Nnamdi Okonkwo said that the three firms namely.
Petters & Daniels Industries Limited, Uzo-Best Nigeria Limited, and Pecho Plastics, were the first set to benefit from the CBN fund through the bank.
He said about 400 MSME firms applied for the fund through Fidelity Bank, adding that others would be able to access the fund once they meet all the conditions for accessing it.
Okonkwo said that the disbursement marks a milestone in the commitment of Fidelity Bank to the growth of SMEs in the country. He said the bank recognises the critical role SMEs play in the economy and hence decided to devote resources to helping the SMEs operators through its Managed SME programme, executed by its SME department headed by a top official of the bank.
He said through the Managed SME programme, Fidelity Bank’s staff work with SMEs to understand their challenges, needs of their businesses in order to develop appropriate financing solution to them. He said an example is the N600 million funding provided to the 75,000 member footwear and textile SME cluster in Aba, Abia State. He noted that the Bank had never had a bad experience in its relationship with SMEs and it would continue to support and participate in any initiative to enhance the growth of the SMEs in the country.
Okonkwo commended the establishment of the N220 billion MSME Fund saying it would go a long way in enhancing access to cheap loans for MSMEs in the country. He said that hitherto lack of access to finance had been one of the major challenges confronting SMEs in the country due to requirements like collateral, identity and credit scoring.
He said while the challenge of identity and credit scoring are been addressed through the establishment of credit bureaus and the biometric verification number (BVN), while the CBN MSME fund addresses the challenges of collateral and interest rate. The fund, he said in addition to pegging interest rate at 9.0 percent also allows 50 percent collateral cover for loans to MSMEs. He said the N80 million being disbursed to the three firms, would enhance their capital and ability to compete in their different business segments.

My question is:

Why is it that starters cant access this funds, only made companies yet they say it's MSMEs.

It should be MME because the small business man cannot get that fund until he dies unless God intervenes miraculously.

Nairaland GeneralCross River Uncovers N500m Fraud by Dyoungstar(op): 2:43pm On Mar 17, 2015
A total of 10 civil servants in cross river state including banks officials are being silently being investigated for allegedly defrauding the state government to the tune of N500m.

National Mirror learnt that about N500million was allegedly stolen by dubious staff under the employment of Cross River State Government.

It was gathered that some civil servants working at the office of accountant general of the state were whisked away by security operatives when the fraudulent act was were uncovered by authorities of the state.

A source told National Mirror that the dubious staff connived with some Ecobank officials and defrauded government of Cross River state where millions of naira was being withdrawn from accounts of deceased or retired and sacked civil servants of the state.

“These government workers retired from service, some died several years ago while others were sacked yet their salaries were still running, this money amounted to millions of Naira” Peter Atangba said.

Another civil servant who preferred anonymity said that the fraudulent act perpetrated by these dub ious staff had been going on in the last three to four years now.

Our investigations revealed that one of the prime suspect suspects have erected so many houses, acquired Porsche cars and changing their ward ropes up to date.

As at the time of fielding this report, it was gathered that government of Cross River state had constituted a panel that is investigating the fraud allegations.

l Governor Liyel Imoke of Cross River State is said to be aware of the fraud incidence and is said not to be happy with the development as it affects the finances of state government especially now that economy of the state government is said to be in a recession given the fact that the state government not able to pay workers 2months salaries with about Severn months impress being owed political appointees and several other top government functionaries.

We also gathered that the indicted staff of Eco bank are now answering questions from securities operatives for the alledged financial racketeering.

National Mirror gathered that for several years, the number of government’s workers kept on reducing with no corresponding decrease in the wage bills.

However, none of the senior officials in the Accountant General`s office was willing to make any comment concerning the issue of fraud as those accosted by to speak on the matter preferred to keep mute

It was however gathered that the head of service Mrs Theresa Ikwen had complained some time ago about the increase in the wage bill despite the fact that some persons were being retired or had died yet the wage bill kept on going haywire but authorities of the accountant general`s office paid deaf ears to the complain.

EducationLASU Workers Cripple Convocation Ceremony, Chase VC, Others Out by Dyoungstar(op): 2:11pm On Mar 17, 2015
https://nationalmirroronline.net/new/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/index.jpgMembers of staff of the Lagos State University, LASU, Ojo, yesterday protested what they called bad administrative style of the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. John Obafunwa, chasing Reghim out of campus alongside other principal officers.

The staffers under the various trade unions in the institution, including the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, SSANU, and Non-Academic Staff Union, NASU, listed victimisation of staff, non-payment of outstanding salary arrears, violation of due process, ruining staff image in newspapers, withdrawal of PhD certificates of some lecturers, denial of letters for elected Governing Council and Senate members, as some of their grouses against the authority, thus warranting the protest.

Aside the academic and administrative activities that were paralysed in the process, both the Senate meeting and Coconut Breaking festival as parts of ongoing convocation ceremony could not also hold.

National Mirror gathered that the aggrieved workers started the protest around 7.45am, blocking both the main gate on Badagry Expressway and Iba gate with vehicles, despite the presence of armed policemen and campus security officers, to prevent vehicular movement in and out of the campus.

They were singing anti- Obafunwa songs, while some laid siege to the coconut breaking festival venue where the vice-chancellor and his team were expected.

It was further gathered that at 9:55am, Prof Obafunwa and other principal officers were escorted into the main campus by armed policemen and the protesting workers followed, chanting solidarity songs.

While approaching Block 1, which houses the VC and other principal officers’ offices, the workers quickly blocked the entrance and prevented him and his two deputies from gaining entrance.

They were pelted with sachet water, forcing the policemen to hurriedly escort the vice chancellor and others out of hithe arena and eventually out of the campus at 11.10am.

PoliticsJonathan Paid Ethnic Militias N9bn To Scuttle Polls –APC by Dyoungstar(op): 12:13pm On Mar 16, 2015
PDP dismisses claim, justifies NIS compensation of victims’ families

All Progressives Congress, APC, has accused the President Goodluck Jonathan administration of sponsoring ethnic militias to foment trouble before, during and after the forthcoming general elections.

APC also said that the N9bn recently paid out to some ex-militants and ethnic militias is aimed at mobilising them to scuttle the polls.

In a statement issued in Lagos yesterday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the protests by MASSOB last week, seeking the sack of the Chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Prof. Attahiru Jega was orchestrated by the administration as part of its continuing efforts to sabotage the elections.

It said the next group that has been mobilised to protest against Jega and the use of Card Reader is the Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC, which is also a beneficiary of the N9bn payout ostensibly for pipeline protection, but in reality to prepare the ethnic militias for their reprehensible role in scuttling the elections.

APC said more ethnic militias are to be enlisted by the Jonathan administration to continue the protest against Jega and the Card Reader, in order to give the impression that Nigerians want the INEC chairman sacked and are also against the use of card reader.

The party expressed sadness that a President, who inherited a united nation has done everything he can to divide the country along ethnic and religious lines, including patronising ethnic militias, who serve no other purpose than to champion sectional interests at the expense of national unity.

It wondered why President Jonathan would pay N9bn to a handful of people at a time of great economic downturn and falling Naira, as well as in a situation in which many states cannot even afford to pay their workers because of dwindling allocation from the Federation Account.

“A profligate government that has been bribing people with dollars and ferrying huge funds around practically to buy votes has outdone itself by paying out all of N9bn to a few Nigerians, with less than three weeks to the elections.

“Shortly after the payment, some self-serving groups started organising protests that, for all intents and purposes, are being orchestrated to scuttle the polls. This is a shameful show by the Federal Government,” APC said.

But, the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO, dismissed the APC claim as false.

Director of Media and Publicity of PDPPCO, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, who reacted in Abuja yesterday, also justified the employment and compensation given to families of the victims of the Nigerian Immigration Service, NIS, tragedy, saying that the APC’s criticism of the gesture was unfortunate.

“Once again, Lai Mohammed has indulged in lies on behalf of his lying party, the APC. It is not true that the PDP or the Federal Government is sponsoring ethnic militias. It is also not true that N9bn has been allocated for that purpose.

“It is rather the APC that has consistently supported and sponsored the Boko Haram both in substance and in their utterances over the last few years. This recourse to telling a lie every day by the opposition party will not in any way assist them in achieving their objectives.

“We will remain focused on the issues. We will talk about their weaknesses and we will also talk about the achievements of President Goodluck Jonathan on why it is that it is important that he is re-elected back into power on March 28. That is our focus,” he said.

He denied claim that PDP and the Federal Government were trying to garner cheap political profit from the calamity that befell some young Nigerians with the employment and compensations to the families of the affected victims of the NIS employment tragedy.

Fani-Kayode said: “It is not the PDP that feeds off the blood of other individuals; it is not the PDP that is a party of ritualists and cultists; it is not the PDP that encourages and supports terrorist organisations that have slaughtered about 35,000 people over the last three years.

“Mr. President’s gesture concerning the victims of the calamity that took place last year when all those young people were killed was a noble gesture and was simply an acknowledgment of the fact that these people died under very, very sad circumstances.

“It was simply an attempt to alleviate the suffering and pain of the families of those that were killed and no right-thinking person will read any other meaning to that.

“It was a reflection of the compassion and the inherent goodness that reside in Mr. President’s heart and I think every patriotic and right-thinking Nigerian should commend him for that and not talk about feeding off people’s calamity. We are not cultists in the PDP. It is the APC that is filled with cultists and ritualists.”

Stop deceiving yourself. I have been to Philadelphia, MS.. It's a small desolate town in Deep South, but it has public water source, efficient sewage cleaning system, functional health department, functional traffic lights, Abuja doesn't all these!! Comparing Abuja to Chicago is like comparing Dangote to the richest man in your village.
What if Dangote is from his village?

I'm strongly considering moving to Nigeria in the future and I would like to have some female friends I can get to know and build lifelong friendships with. Nothing gay or lesbian is involved just genuily looking for friends I can look at as family for when I come home. I'm 26 years old so I would prefer a more mature crowd, I'm am not drama filled , I'm a very cool, kind, caring, down to earth female. I have nothing but love for you all, please accept my friendship tongue you can add me on facebook Janae' Glamrock Morgan so we'll stay in touch. I look forward to meeting you
This post is old but still relevant.

My advise as usual, be careful with those you make friends with in Nigeria.

If they do you what we call 'strong thing' in naija you'll hate Nigerians.

The best thing you'll do is look before you leap.

Don't trust people easily, be sure of anyone before trusting and sharing info with them.

Everybody here dey vex oo.

This jungle called Nigeria, you need identify your pally and brothers before entrusting anything.


My one cent advise.

Glamrock, I specifically signed up on Nairaland after reading your post on "10 reasons why you're moving from America" and I showed your topic to my wife and informed her I would register on this forum just to encourage you. You have a family in us any day sis. You are making the right move sista, you can't go wrong.

A brief history of my background and why I was easily drawn to your posts and why we share similar experiences:

1. Born and raised in Lagos and moved to the U.S at a young age. I left Nigeria in October 1993 and never came back until January 2015! Yup, 21 straight years! I last resided in Florida after having lived in Atlanta and Boston. Coming back to Nigeria was interesting as I saw it through the eyes of a foreigner having been away for so long! I wowed in amazement seeing how developed Nigeria truly is although most of the locals are blind to this reality. They crave glitters while I crave understated beauty and simplicity. They crave excess, while I crave contentment. They praise the AmeriKKKan white man because they have no prolonged first time experience of how evil he is and how he's disagreeable to anyone of African ancestry.

2. I was single when I left for the U.S but came back with a wife and kids who had never ventured outside of America until this past January. They were born and raised in the U.S and attended charter schools but we pulled them for fear of ever rising racial prosecution. We couldn't stand to see our kids before looked upon as 2nd class citizens.

3. I relocated my entire family to Nigeria because it finally dawned on me that AmeriKKKa is the "land of the free AND home of the slaves". I feared for the lives of my kids especially my sons after watching the Ferguson Riots, Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin,etc. They are exterminating young black men irrespective of how young they are. There is definitely an agenda against teenage boys in AmeriKKKa and this genocide is on the rise daily.

4. I finally saw that Nigeria was not as bad as I thought it were 21 years ago. As the saying goes " the grass looks greener on the other side". Looking around now, I have come to respect my african heritage and have been trying to educate some of these ignorant average Nigerians that AmeriKKKa is a systematic racist place and it's impossible for any sense having black person to feel complete in that over-gloried country.

5. Since we relocated to Nigeria 2 months ago, we've felt peace like we never had in my 21 yrs in America. My kids are happier here and my wife love it too despite the little challenges. We complained about the lack of constant power supply at home but have since invested in multi battery inverters to give us 24 hours electricity. Despite all the little challenges we've experienced in Nigeria, nothing can make us leave again for the U.S. There is really nothing that we need from the U.S that we can't readily have in Nigeria.

6. Business opportunities abound in Nigeria and the current strength of the dollar is to your advantage. The locals here don't really see the opportunities starring them right in the eyes 'cause they're too busy trying to make instant millions when they could gradually build an empire.

7. 1 met 7 other returness from AmeriKKKa and we all came to the same conclusion that Nigeria is actually a better place to live and raise kids than AmeriKKKa. The simple minded will never understand that 'cause they're so wrapped up in materialism and glamorization of AmeriKKKa but those of us who have lived there for decades can easily tell the difference of how fake AmeriKKKa is as a nation and how the country can never truly be integrated.

8. Since we relocated, I have not experience any iota of racism and that in itself is peace to my soul.

9. I've been educating my African-American friends to come visit Africa and start reconnecting with their roots for a deeper cleansing and rebirth.

9. My family will gladly welcome you and 'cause we shared the same struggles with African-Americans and we can advise you of do and don'ts and how to live a balance life in Nigeria.

10. Lastly, my wife and I vowed never to step foot in America again knowing all we know now.

Keep in touch!
Sir, you have spoken well like a real Nigerian not like those Nigerian based mofos who seek to be slaves in another man's land.

I would like to meet with you if for nothing, acquaintance and chop your knuckle small for your wise decision. Reply my pm.

Thanks.

Hello good people.

I want to know those who really love their religion and have read through the Bible cover to cover back and forth.

If you have, please answer these few questions.

1. Where is the middle of the Bible?

2. Where is the center fullstop located?

3. How many words are in the Bible?

4. What is the grammatical blunder you have encountered in the Bible?

Christianity EtcOur Churches Are Lying To Us. by Dyoungstar(op): 1:01am On Mar 16, 2015
[b]I wonder and marvel at the kind of Christians our churches produce these days.


With the news flying around one would easily conclude that if hell comes today, the Christians will be the first to be allocated mansions there and our pastors rule over the devil.

Imagine a certain well known church in Africa collecting gate fees from members before they could gain access into the church.

Is it A.Y live show?

Do you remember this quote?


Matthew 20:20-23 Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.
And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom.
But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.
And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.






Gone are those days you go to church and hear 'thus says the lord'

I remember in those days when worship and praise lifts the spirit but these days wizkid songs lifts the spirit better than gospel songs.


No sound doctrinal teachings anymore, pastors are too weak, can't even pray yet they claim to be leading us to God.


My brothers, the church today is business and pastors are motivational speakers turned pastors.



Remember this?


Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.



No pastor or church will lead you to God except yourself, so be careful lest you fall.



1 Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
