Christianity Etc › Re: What Is Idolatry? by femi4: 11:57am On Jan 12, 2025
Mogbonjubola55:
Whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father . . . Matthew 10:33


What is idolatry? Idolatry is anything that comes between us and God. Joshua told his people that their nation would be destroyed if they persisted in idolatry, and their souls would suffer eternal death. He said, “You must make your decision today. You must decide whether you want to serve the idols of this life, or the living God.” “Choose you this day,” said Joshua, “as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” What about you? Are you taking your stand with Joshua? No matter what the cost? I am asking you to choose this day whom you will serve. Our families cannot choose Christ for us. Our friends cannot do it. God is a great God, but even God can’t make the decision for us. He can help, but only we can decide. We have to make our own choice.

PRAYER
Lord Jesus Christ, take away the idols in my life so that, completely undivided, I may serve You, my Savior.

Christianity Etc › Re: How I Saved A Friend From Becoming An Atheist by femi4: 11:56am On Jan 12, 2025
Merry100:
2024 seemed to be a very difficult year for many, I am not excluded; it was the kind of year that one might wish they had spent in a coma, only to wake up and find it was another year.

One of my friends experienced a significant business setback, and I, along with others, tried to console her. When she finally regained her composure, she started claiming that there was no God.

Even though I was also having a bad time, her claim didn't sit well with me. There was even one particular client who was frustrating the hell out of me at the time, to the extent that I had to refund his money and tell him that I was no longer interested in doing business with him.

One day, I approached my friend and told her that I wanted to speak with her. She replied that if I was there to give her a sermon, she wouldn't listen. I proceeded to tell her that I was also frustrated and angry with God.

I narrated my bad experiences to her, but I told her that I don't think they are enough reason for me to say there is no God. I mentioned that I still remember those times I prayed and received instant miracles. There was a particular miracle that happened to me in 2022; I had shared it with her before, but I recounted it again during this conversation and also reminded her of a specific miracle she had shared with me.

I included that there are times when we ask our parents for things, and they give them to us instantly without stressing us. However, during those times when we ask and they refuse to give, we might show our frustrations or try to avoid speaking with them or seeing them, but we don't start denying that they are our parents or go to court to sever ties with them.

When I discovered she was reasoning with me, I proceeded to tell her that it was okay to be upset and frustrated, and that she could even vent her anger by misbehaving, acting like a prodigal child, and doing all sorts of things until she felt satisfied. But she should not claim there is no God when it is obvious to her that there is God. This is how I succeeded in reversing her decision.
You didn't tell her that many business set back awaits her in the future. She's a joke, life is designed with ups n downs

Most of our men from age 16 to 35 have no business with relationship wisdom. Even if you tell them the truth, they'll go and tell her what you said.

It's not a man's job to fall in love, but to provide protection, but men won't listen.

Stay away from emotional attachment from both women and money and watch how you'll have peace of mind.

A woman operates based on emotions. Whatever you've done for her doesn't matter. In fact, the less you want her, the more she wants the little you have to offer over the might goodies the person who wants her offers.

Education › Re: 75% Of Life’s Success Isn’t Taught In Nigerian Schools by femi4: 1:24pm On Jan 11, 2025
Dpharmacist:
75% of Life’s Success Isn’t Taught in Nigerian Schools. This is Why You Need to Learn Beyond the Classroom

Have you ever wondered why so many successful individuals achieved greatness despite not undergoing the traditional education system?

Research shows that 75% of what we need to succeed in life is not taught in Nigerian schools, and a significant portion of what we are taught is rarely applicable in the real world.

This shocking reality highlights the shortcomings of the Nigerian curriculum in preparing students for the complexities of modern life. Our schools focus heavily on theoretical knowledge, often neglecting critical life skills like financial literacy, emotional intelligence, entrepreneurship, and digital proficiency—skills essential for navigating today’s world.

Why Is This Gap So Widespread?

1. Outdated Curriculum: Many schools still follow curriculums designed decades ago, which fail to address the demands of the 21st century. I remember one of our teachers in SS class back then who was using a 1990 text book when it was 2008.

2. Focus on Grades Over Growth: The emphasis on passing exams rather than fostering creativity and critical thinking stifles students' ability to innovate. When sometimes go to the lab and told to skip topics from the practical manual. We focus too much on theory.

3. Neglect of Practical Skills: Topics like personal finance, career planning, and interpersonal skills are missing, leaving students unprepared for life after school.


What Can Be Done?

If you’re waiting for the education system to change, you might be waiting forever. It’s time to take your future into your own hands:

Invest in Self-Education: Use online platforms like Coursera, Udemy, and YouTube to learn in-demand skills. Read books on entrepreneurship, personal finance, and emotional intelligence.

Build Soft Skills: Focus on communication, teamwork, time management, and adaptability—these are the traits employers value the most.

Experiment and Take Risks: Start a small business, volunteer, or work on side projects to gain real-world experience.

For Parents and Educators

Parents and teachers have a significant role in shaping well-rounded individuals. They can:

1. Encourage students to pursue extracurricular activities that develop their creativity and resilience.

2. Teach financial literacy early to help children understand money management.

3. Foster curiosity and problem-solving by supporting questions and independent thinking.


A Wake-Up Call for Policy Makers

It’s not enough to acknowledge the gaps in the system—action is needed. Nigerian policymakers must:

1. Revamp the curriculum to prioritize life skills over rote memorization.

2. Train teachers to embrace modern teaching methods and technology.

3. Create programs that support entrepreneurship and digital literacy from an early age.


Redefining Success

Success in today’s world is not just about academic excellence; it’s about character, adaptability, and the ability to solve real-world problems. The education system should nurture these qualities, but until it does, individuals must actively seek knowledge and opportunities to grow.

So, the big question is: What are you doing to learn what school didn’t teach you? Share your thoughts, experiences, and suggestions in the comments below. Let’s start a conversation that could inspire change!

She doesn't ask and if i ask it is always excuse of fatigue.

She doesn't cheat, i am 100% sure of that.
She even told me she wont mind if i find another girl to satisfy my urge.

I am not the type that can cheat too.
So I am worried on what could cause this change. Someone told me it could be an infection

I didn’t start out as a good student – El-Rufai’s wife shares her school result sheet in reaction to video of teacher assaulting 3 year old pupil

https://alexis.lindaikejisblog.com/photos/shares/photo-output_1736426425.jpeg

Hadiza El-Rufai, wife of the former governor of
Kaduna State Nasir El-Rufai, has urged parents
and guardians not to give up on their children,
revealing that she wasn’t a ‘good student’ while
growing up.

Mrs El-Rufai stated this in a post on X in
reaction to the viral video of a teacher, Stella
Nwadigo, assaulting a three-year-old pupil,
Abayomi Michael, during a class lesson.

The footage shows the female teacher at Christ
Mitots School located in the Ikorodu area of
Lagos, violently smacking the young child for
struggling with the lesson. The video sparked
widespread outrage, leading to the teacher’s
subsequent arrest on Wednesday.

To encourage parents and guardians, El-Rufai’s
wife published her 1964 report from Provincial
Girls’ School in Kano which showed she
struggled at school at first.

The former Kaduna First Lady also published a
letter from the management of Shekara Girls
Primary School in Kano asking her parents to
pay her school fees (£2) for the 1970/71 session.

One of her results showed she scored five out of
50.

Rapmoney:
Do you still remember when people used to pay for phone calls at phone booths? Then calls were charged per minute. If you make a phone call of 1 minute 3 seconds, you would be requested to pay for two minutes. I still remember how we were very careful then, always talking and looking at the phone screen to see that it didn't exceed the money we had budgeted to spend for the call.

Then, if someone wanted to call you, the call business operator would notify you and you stay close by so that you could receive the call through his or her phone. I think the per second billing by Glo and the reduction of the price of simcards killed this business.

Some people here may not be able to relate with these because they were born when sim cards and phones became available like sachet water. My neighbour as at then bought MTN simcard for N68,000.
