GOD NEVER CALLED A MAN TO ABANDON HIS HOME FOR THE CHURCH

A Scriptural Re-Examination of Responsibility, Faith, and True Worship

Many men are taught—directly or indirectly—that serving God means spending more time in church programs, vigils, meetings, and “kingdom work,” sometimes at the expense of their homes.

But when Scripture is carefully examined, a shocking truth emerges:

God never commanded a man to neglect his family in order to prove his spirituality.

1. THE FIRST MINISTRY GOD GAVE A MAN WAS HIS HOME

Before there was a church…
Before there was a priesthood…
Before there was an altar…

There was a household.
“Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife…”
— Genesis 2:24

Adam’s first assignment was not worship services, but:

Stewardship (Genesis 2:15)
Leadership
Relationship
Responsibility

A man was complete before temples existed.

2. GOD REJECTS WORSHIP THAT DESTROYS THE HOME

God repeatedly condemned religious activity that ignored justice and responsibility.

“To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD…”
— Isaiah 1:11

“I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.”
— Hosea 6:6 (Quoted by Jesus in Matthew 9:13)

A man who is always in church but absent at home is not spiritual—he is misaligned.

3. THE NEW TESTAMENT STANDARD IS EVEN STRONGER

Paul makes it brutally clear:
“If any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.”
— 1 Timothy 5:8

This verse does not mention prayer, fasting, or tithing.
It mentions provision and responsibility.

Meaning:
A man can pray and still deny the faith
A man can fast and still fail God
A man can serve church and still disobey Scripture

4. JESUS NEVER PULLED MEN AWAY FROM THEIR FAMILIES TO PROVE FAITH

Jesus healed homes.
Jesus restored families.
Jesus rebuked religious leaders who used God as an excuse to escape duty.

“For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother…
But ye say, If a man shall say… Corban… he shall be free.”
— Mark 7:10–12

Corban was a religious excuse to avoid family responsibility.
Jesus called it hypocrisy.

5. THE CHURCH WAS NEVER MEANT TO REPLACE A MAN’S ROLE

The early church met in homes (Romans 16:5).
Men were heads of households, not absentees.

A man’s role includes:
Emotional presence
Financial stability
Moral leadership
Protection
Love (Ephesians 5:25)

Church cannot replace:
A present father
A loving husband
A responsible man

6. GOD NEVER ASKED FOR A MAN’S FAMILY AS A SACRIFICE

God tested Abraham—but He stopped him.
“Lay not thine hand upon the lad…”
— Genesis 22:12

God never wanted Isaac dead.
He wanted Abraham obedient, not broken.

Any teaching that destroys families in the name of God did not come from God.

THE SHAKING QUESTION

If:

God judges men by how they run their homes,

Jesus condemned religious excuses for neglect,

The apostles demanded responsibility before ministry…

Why do some men think church activity can replace fatherhood, provision, and presence?

FINAL THOUGHT

A man is not spiritual because:
He is always in church
He holds a title
He is known by pastors

A man is spiritual when:
His home is safe
His children are covered
His wife is loved
His responsibility is intact

Your first altar is your home.

I will love him to go deeper.

Really?

Okay

Good. Humans are waking up.

Hi

Can I study Medical Physics with my B. Sc Physics?

A foremost economist and founder of Anap Foundation, Atedo Peterside has alleged that the votes belonging to the Labour Party in the just concluded presidential election were transferred to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Peterside who spoke in an interview with Arise TV on Wednesday, however, said the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, were not tampered.

According to him, the results uploaded on the IReV portal of the electoral body shows that INEC may have declared a wrong candidate winner.
“I have spent time scanning through some result sheets, there is a pattern they used and that is disturbing. All the examples I showed you were votes of Labour Party transferred to the APC but PDP’s votes were left untouched,” he said.

The economist expressed optimism that the judiciary would do a good job by telling Nigerians the true winner of the February 25 presidential election.

How is it a curse?

NigerianAngelo:
Wrong prayers are pleas for curses.

That is why I am telling the OP the will of God: Pray against the defaulter. Leave his children.

A simple prayer to every voter.
MAY YOUR CHILD/CHILDREN BE AN UPGRADE OF WHOSOEVER YOU VOTE FOR IN JESUS NAME. AMEN.

It is not a curse dear.
It is a prayer.

NigerianAngelo:
1. Not their children. They themselves.

2. Thou shalt not put children to death because of the iniquity of their fathers." (Deut 24:16)

3. "The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father." (Ez 18:20)

1 Our Father, 1 Hail Mary for all Nigerians today.

To those that will vote this year,
MAY YOUR CHILDREN BE AN UPGRADE OF WHOSOEVER YOU VOTE FOR IN JESUS NAME.
AMEN.

Dizzyish:
Please I need advice, any advice.
I graduated with a 3rd class in Chemistry from three years ago (I only blame myself for that) and after I finished my NYSC a year ago I just plunged into a depressive state in regards to my mistake (my education) and my future (career) sometimes breaking down in tears when I think of things I've taken for granted in my life.

I started working on myself a few months ago and I've made some progress I proud of but every now and then it's easy to be overwhelmed with self doubt.
I made a cv without work experience along with a cover letter a few days ago and applied for a few entry level jobs like graduate intern, sales, restaurant supervisor etc via jobberman and the companies email but I'm not too sure I'll be getting any calls from them.
I didn't come here to get sympathy just an honest advice or opinion on what to do.

Can I do a pgd in chemical engineering or just chemistry or pursue a business or computer/tech course, are there jobs I can get with my degree maybe to get skills and work experience?
I deeply appreciate any advice. Thank you.

I am a third class student having B. Sc in Physics. Before my I have been teaching before admission, during studies and after graduation. I spent most of my time in school for knowledge not education.
Today I teach in one of the best schools at Oyigbo. I am very good in sciences.
Please leave certificate and get knowledge.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has said that convicted fraudster currently in a US jail, Abass Ramon, aka Hushpuppi, paid $20,600 or equivalent of N8m to the head of the IGP Intelligence Response Team (IRT) Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, to arrest and detain his fellow fraudster, Chibuzo Kelly Vincent.
According to a document issued by the US District Court for the Central District Court, California and dated February 12, 2021, it stated that Hushpuppi contracted the services of Abba Kyari after Chibuzo allegedly threatened to expose an alleged $1.1m fraud committed against a Qatari businessman.

Pages 59, item 145 of the document said, “Kyari provided the account information for a bank account at a Nigerian bank, Zenith Bank, in the name of a person other than Kyari himself”.

FBI Special Agent, Andrew John Innocenti, made the allegation in the ‘Criminal Complaint By Telephone Or Other Reliable Electronic Means’ filed before the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

Explaining how the alleged payment was made, the document said, “On January 16, 2020, Abbas sent a message to Kyari on WhatsApp, and then placed five calls to another phone number (+2348060733588) that was listed as ‘Abba Kyari.’

“Call records show that the last three of the calls were answered and that one of the calls lasted more than two minutes.

“Shortly after that, Abbas received a message from Kyari, confirming ‘We would pick him today or tomorrow.’

Abbas wrote, ‘I will take care of the team also after they pick him up.’ Kyari confirmed ‘Yes ooo.’”

The document stated that, based on the conversation described in paragraphs 143 to 145, Abbas planned to pay the Nigeria Police Force officers who arrested Chibuzo for that service.

It further alleged, “This was not the only time that Abbas arranged payments with Kyari”, adding, “On May 20, 2020, Abbas sent Kyari transaction receipts for two transactions from accounts at Nigerian banks (GTBank and Zenith Bank) of a person Abbas knew in the U.A.E.— a person also arrested with Abbas in Abbas’ apartment in the U.A.E. by Dubai Police on June 9, 2020 — to the Nigerian bank accounts of another person in Nigeria.

“The amounts on the transaction receipts totalled 8 million Nigerian Naira, which was approximately $20,600 based on publicly available exchange rate information.”

The FBI document added that “Attempting to reason with Abbas, on January 18, 2020, Chibuzo recounted for Abbas all the assistance he had provided in the scheme to victimize the victim Businessperson, including creating the “power of attorney” document, devising a story to tell the victim Businessperson, and facilitating the creation of the “telephone banking” number and fake Wells Fargo website.

“On January 20, 2020, Kyari sent to Abbas a biographical, identifying information for Chibuzo, along with a photograph of him. In a conversation immediately following, Abbas confirmed, ‘that is him, sir.’

“Kyari stated, ‘We have arrested the guy. He is in my cell now. This is his picture after we arrested him today.”

The document said, Kyari then sent the biographical information about, and photograph of Chibuzo to Abbas, using two different WhatsApp numbers — the second of which Kyari said was his “private number.”

“From that point on, Kyari and Abbas primarily discussed the arrest and detention of Chibuzo through WhatsApp on this ‘private number,’” the document stated further

After listening to the message, Kyari wrote, “Ok I understand. But he has not succeeded.” Abbas claimed Chibuzo had taken some money and provided Kyari with two screenshots, one of which contained the phone number 3054405586 (the phone number Chibuzo used to contact the Victim Businessperson).

“Abbas then told Kyari, ‘Now the [Victim Businessperson] was sceptical to pay me the money cos he keeps attacking the [Victim Businessperson] from his end. Now I can handle the [Victim Businessperson] correctly.”

After receiving the photograph of Chibuzo, Abbas said, ‘I want him to go through the serious beating of his life.’ Kyari responded, ‘Hahahaha,’ and Abbas replied, ‘Seriously sir.’

“Kyari then asked for details about what Chibuzo did on audio, which Kyari said was ‘So that we will know what to do.’

“In response to Kyari’s question about what Chibuzo had done to Abbas, Abbas sent Kyari an audio message, which is transcribed here, describing how Chibuzo had tried to steal away a fraud victim (i.e., “the job”) from him:

What he did is, I have one job. The job want to pay me 500, umm, 75,000 dollars [i.e., $575,000]. He went to message the job behind me because I told him to help me make one document for me to give the job. Then he went—he has a—I gave him the details.

Then he went to message the job behind my back and try to divert the money and in this process, he tells the job because of the documents he gave me that I gave the job, he tell the job, ‘These document they sent to you before. These people are fake. This money—is me who can help you to get it. Come to me le—bring this money you want to pay these people to me. I’m the only one who can help you,’ and all these things to divert the job for himself.

The FBI said that after listening to the message, Kyari wrote, “Ok I understand. But he has not succeeded.”

Abbas claimed Chibuzo had taken some money and provided Kyari with two screenshots, one of which contained the phone number 3054405586 (the phone number Chibuzo used to contact the Victim Businessperson).

“Abbas then told Kyari, ‘Now the [Victim Businessperson] was sceptical to pay me the money cos he keeps attacking the [Victim Businessperson] from his end. Now I can handle the [Victim Businessperson] correctly.”

The document further alleged that “Abbas further told Kyari that he wanted to pay money to send Chibuzo to jail for a long time, stating, ‘Please sir, I want to spend money to send this boy to jail, let him go for a very long time.’

“Kyari responded, “Ok bro, I understand; I will discuss with my team who arrested him . . . And handling the case We will do something about it.’

“Abbas responded, ‘Let me know how I can send money to the team sir. Let them deal with him like an armed robber.’ Kyari responded, ‘OK I will send their account details to u.’”

“Abbas further wrote, ‘He betray me and try to take food out my mouth, this is great punishable sin,’ and Kyari responded, ‘Yeah bro.’

“Abbas then continued, ‘I want him to suffer for many years.’ Kyari responded, ‘Hahahaha! Hahahaha.’”

A month later, on February 19, 2020, Kyari alleged sent a message to Abbas, saying, ‘Hello hush with [sic] need to talk about the subject under detention with me.’

“Abbas asked, ‘Should I call u on this number sir?’ to which Kyari replied ‘Yes call me.’

“The following day, Kyari sent Abbas multiple photographs of Chibuzo to Abbas, including close-up photographs showing a rash or skin disease on Chibuzo’s torso and arms.

“Abbas responded, ‘I don pity am, make them leave am from Tuesday.’ Kyari wrote, ‘Ok bro, they just brought him from the hospital. The fever and the rashes are giving him serious wahala. He got the disease from other suspects in the cell.’

“Abbas responded, ‘I see am, I no too pity am. That’s what people like him deserve, but I go forgive am for God sake.’

“Abbas then said, ‘No problem sir from Tuesday he can go,” apparently giving Kyari his blessing to release Chibuzo from custody.

“Kyari responded, ‘Ok bro. We will also keep his phone and other gadgets for some weeks.’ Abbas responded, “Yes those ones they should not give him again, those ones are gone . . . Make he no see those ones again for life.’

Kyari responded, ‘Yes he will not see it again,” indicating that he would accede to Abbas’ request.”
