Sleep walking

Exactly my first thought!

Dollarmind001:
One thing y'all should know is that, God didn't take all the power from the devil.
Lucifer, Satan aka the devil still has power to cause mayhem and destruction but God has given us authority over him. The days are evil....some dreams are not just mere dreams...it's a message of something that would happen in the future. Some will come here and say it's just a coincidence..the dream has nothing to do with this...dey play. No go lusgad o...if not dem go just waste you

Shut the f--k off abeg!

A Nigerian woman has set social media abuzz after sharing her shocking experience. According to her, she had a dream where she dipped her hand into hot water, only to wake up and find visible burns on her hand in real life.
She posted images of her injured hand online, sparking intense debates about the connection between dreams and real-life experiences. Some social media users strongly believe that her case is proof of spiritual manifestation, arguing that dreams often translate into physical reality. They cited similar experiences where people got injured or felt pain in real life after experiencing something in a dream.
On the other hand, skeptics dismissed her claims, suggesting that there could be a medical explanation. Some argue that she might have unknowingly burned herself while sleeping or suffered from a condition like sleep paralysis, which can sometimes cause hallucinations and physical sensations.

Is she certain she is not a sleepwalker? She may have actually been scolded while she believed she was dreaming all that time.

She should set up a camera in her house to verify if her particular sleep problem does not have her walking around and even cooking at night.

➜The evidence of grace is not measured by the perfection of every individual who claims Christianity, but by the undeniable transformation it brings to those who truly embrace it. If we look beyond institutions and flawed human behavior, we see grace at work in:
1. Changed Lives – Millions testify to radical personal transformation, from addiction to freedom, hatred to love, selfishness to service. These are real, observable shifts in character that psychology alone cannot fully explain.
2. Acts of Love and Sacrifice – Christian organizations lead in humanitarian efforts—feeding the poor, caring for the sick, and advocating for justice. Hospitals, orphanages, and schools worldwide exist because of this grace-driven compassion.
3. Personal Encounters – The most compelling evidence is found in those who have experienced God’s grace firsthand. Millions speak of peace beyond understanding, freedom from guilt, and a love that transforms their entire being.
➜Grace is not a vague idea—it is a force that changes hearts, communities, and history itself. It can be examined in lives truly surrendered to Christ, where the evidence is undeniable.

1. Changed lives, you say? They are real yet in Nigeria where at least 60 million of the populace claim to have this same testimony are also among the worst of Nigeria. How come?

2. Acts of love and sacrifice? Do you mean the same acts that are carried out by non-Christian organizations like UNICEF, USAID, etc, in the same Nigeria?

3. Personal encounters and understanding which has resulted in the creation of over 45,000 different images of the same Christian God — denominations in the same religion? Anyone looking from the outside would note that the many contradictory ideas cannot be cohesively merged together for good reason hence the division that is observed even within Christianity and among Christians.

4. It is not vague yet all you have stated are vague ideas/conclusions of what it is.

Please note that none of the above definitively answers the question I asked earlier.

Kobojunkie:
But where is the evidence of the grace idea itself in the lives of over the 2.2. billion Catholics and Christians across the globe? Where can it be seen and examined?

Also, at this point it may make sense to ask that you explain what exactly grace is since there seem to be so many different definitions of what it is across the many different denominations of Christianity.

➜The doctrine of hyper-grace teaches that because of God's grace, Christians no longer need to repent or strive for holiness, as all sins—past, present, and future—are already forgiven. While God's grace is indeed abundant and central to salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9), this belief distorts the biblical balance between grace and responsibility.
1. Grace Does Not Abolish Obedience
Jesus Himself said, “If you love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15). Paul, who preached salvation by grace, also warned, “Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not!” (Romans 6:1-2). True grace empowers believers to live righteously, not to remain in sin.
2. Repentance is Ongoing
The Bible repeatedly calls believers to repentance, not just at salvation but as a continual act (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9). Even churches in Revelation were rebuked for sin and called to repent (Revelation 2:5, 3:19).
3. Holiness is Still Required
Hebrews 12:14 states, “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.” Grace enables, but does not replace, our call to holy living.
4. Judgment Still Exists
While believers are saved by grace, they are still accountable (2 Corinthians 5:10). Jesus warned that many who call Him “Lord” will be rejected because they practiced lawlessness (Matthew 7:21-23).
A biblical understanding of grace does not lead to lawlessness but to transformation (Titus 2:11-12). True grace calls us to deeper love, repentance, and obedience, not complacency in sin

But where is the evidence of the grace idea itself in the lives of over the 2.2. billion Catholics and Christians across the globe? Where can it be seen and examined?

I am a Yorùbá, but Kemi is stupidly foolish!
Adìyẹ tó hún ṣu sínú ìkòkò ọbẹ̀, ó kàn mba sàárè ara rẹ̀ jẹ́ lásán ni.
The fowl that defecates inside the cooking pot is only desecrating its last resting place.
Ọmọ tó gbàgbé ilé ti fi àpò ìyà kọ́rùn.
Achild who forgot his/her background only does that to his/her own disadvantage.
Bí a wí fún ọmọ ẹni a gbọ́
A word is enough for the wise.

It is this foolishness that has left Yoruba land exactly where it is today and will continue to remain if the people don't wake the f-ck up.

➜That’s your own personal problem. 😹😹😹😹 Let them teach us the ideas that suit them.

How can it be a personal problem when it is a problem that exists outside of my person? You cannot thumb your nose down on the Christians when they call out their own scammers-in-the-lords when your own scammers-in-the-lords are guilty of doing the exact same things in Islam. 😑😑😑

Countries are getting really serious about immigration!

Nobody is helping you to see the rubbish you’re seeing there are three major way exchange rate is been controlled we have fixed system, this is when govt intervene in the market to keep the currency pegged at a certain amount, we have the floating system which Nigeria is currently practicing, this expose the market rate to market forces I.e supply and demand, this often makes the currency so volatile due to external shock or global issues especially in a complex and multifaceted global system where there are tons of activities going on in milli seconds, it makes it worst for a oil-dependent country like nigeria where a change in global oil prices can affect our currency ASAP and there’s no monetary policy introduced by Cardozo can save us from this economic woes that’s why sometimes most govt that practice this floating system sometimes used the managed floating system where the govt intervene once in a blue moon in order to buffer against external shocks or global issues. These are global economic standards
The issue of depleting foreign reserves you raised has nothing to do with exchange rate, its most largely attributed to meeting international payment obligations/debt service and also managing economic shock e.g the present tariff raised by the USA
It is instructive for you to know that presently all forex window are collapsed to be one since, as both the parallel market and the black market rate are also the same all thanks to the clampdown on BDCs and aboki, the currency is now getting stable, dollar/NGN is now at 1600 for more 3 weeks now
The breaking below the 1600 is a result of the effective monetary policy by the CBN for all BDC to give a daily account of their transaction with this you’re preventing the unnecessary proliferation of dollars by some individuals.

Lie-Lie economics.... fascinating, not!

Eriokanmi:
Don't mind them. Even their children no dey Nigeria lol. I wonder why boko haram are attacking the innocent instead of paying a visit to the national assembly complex.

Don't for one moment think that Boko Haram is interested in the plight of Nigerians. To these terrorists, Nigerians are merely fodder for their cause, the same way those politicians view the people.

While at the same time, Nigeria's foreign reserves lost approximately $1.3 Billion. Does anyone else see something here? 🙄🙄🙄

By the way, why is there still a black market when almost 18 months ago we were promised that all forex windows would be collapsed into just the one by the CBN? 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Self restraint apparently is an unknown subject in your village...

So, in your village, everyone is shackled?

AbuTwins:
✓ When Matthew left everything and followed the biblical Jesus what do you think will happen to his family?

What in the world are you on about? The verse quoted says nothing about family but about the Sword that was brought. The following verses which you fixate on is for another thread and only applies to those who have families... Matthew never revealed he had family for you to worry yourself about.

How many billions, abi na trillions, dem go add to budget this time around with this excuse? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

odaniel1:
➜3 masters in a range of academic fields and a farming profession no do you, no be drug kingpin your president be?

If that is all that is necessary to man a ministry, then over 50% of your Ministers in Nigeria are all qualified for the job. Congratulations!

Gaskiya77:
➜The Church has survived 2000yrs and nothing can kill the church of Christ.
Evil men die and some Wii run away from the church but it will remain forever because it is the body of Christ that is beyond the earth.

Your Christian church has instead survived 1650 years beginning from the time Constantine sanctioned it as the official religion of Rome.

➜Alhamdulillah for the blessings of Islam. If any imam tries taxing us in the mosque, Hays. Pointer to the fact that he’s not a worker for Allah and needed to be removed if the mosque is a public property, but if the mosque is his personal property, then the mosque should be left in search of another nearby mosque. Islam is. Religion of ease and comfy.

Nonsense! Why would your imams need to task you when in addition to the salary they collect, they are paid by your local politicians and lords to teach you ideas that suit their particular agenda on any given day while using the name of Mohammed and Allah to garnish it all? Were you blind to recent events that have been taking place out in the open in the North revealing publicly how many of your imams support political ideals that cause suffering to their own communities?

Love800:
✓ Nigeria dont prioritize. Dangote is wide. He won't fit.
Let me go and about dat position given to Elon musk.

Storyland! 🙄

Love800:
➜Well, wish nigeria was working, i would direct a fashion designer who knows what he's doing, to head the ministry of culture. Isn't these sort of things that we are wishing for nigeria? Why putting someone who is off-point to pilot affairs? Who need to set the table right.
➜Didnt you saw the appointment given to Elon musk. Was he not worth it? That is his trade and profits will certainly come out of it!

Nigerian isn't working exactly because of this nonsense. You keep installing people who are not qualified in government roles only to then turn around and wonder why things don't work. How can anything work when you all are busy enabling the decay?

2. Did you even bother reading up on what he was appointed to do? Elon Musk was appointed a special government agent in the DOGE.

Musk, the world's richest man and an adviser to President Trump, is leading a team called the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. Despite the name, DOGE is part of the White House and not a Cabinet agency. In recent days it has gained access to the Treasury Department's payment systems, which are responsible for processing trillions of dollars of spending every year.

Can you compare that to any of what you are insisting on here which is that people like Dangote be installed as Minister of Petroleum and a tailor/seamstress somewhere be installed as Minister of Culture?

Bobbynobobby:
➜I guess you are reaching out to/trying to confuse some people. All the best

The one who is confused here is you if you are not even aware of this 2000-year-old fact.

Love800:
➜John is just an actor. Living his retirement acting(film) life and venturing full time into farming without any distraction. Why won't you give that kind of person minister?

By this submission, we should equally allow Dangote who is a businessman who ventured into oil refining become Minister of Petroleum in Nigeria. Makes sense, right?

We should equally install a tailor/seamstress who runs a clothing factory making agbada and buba as Minister of Culture.

Advocate1810:
➜Alhamdulilah Ala nimotil Islam

Nonsense! This situation is also common in Islam where your imams and sharia judges set themselves up as gods over you lot.

Wetin this one dey talk abeg! Are you saying Dangote is good for the Minister of Petroleum in Nigeria then?

➜Dangote is complicated. Cant fit dat role!

So, this particular guy is not complicated but Dangote who fits with the simple idea presented is complicated? come on now...

↪ A road side mechanic would have been better then. At least then, you can have a square triangle in a round hole. Make una dey think small now. At least sun don go down

Ah! This one is not already a square triangle? I see! So, because a man owns one of the biggest farms in the country that makes him the best candidate to run the country's Ministry of Agriculture? Right? Dangote owns the biggest refinery in Nigeria, we should in turn set him up as Minister of Petroleum in Nigeria, right?

easzypeaszy:
he is a big farmer and has invested a lot into farming. So wht else do u want abeg just tell me chief

I see! So, because a man owns one of the biggest farms in the country that makes him the best candidate to run the country's Ministry of Agriculture? Right? Dangote owns the biggest refinery in Nigeria, we should in turn set him up as Minister of Petroleum in Nigeria, right?

he invested so much on agriculture, has one of d biggest farms in the country. Go and verify before quoting Africa

atutupoyoyo2211:
Actually the joke is on you. The guy has been a big time farmer for a while now.

...So being a farmer is all it takes to be a minister of food and agriculture? This is 2025 for Pete's sake! Can't we strive for something better than what we have been settling for all of this while? How much longer will you folks continue to take this joke on?

Africa and jokes... What qualifications does this man have to be assigned to such a role?

Bobbynobobby:
➜But the way to thy God is Christ. Peace!

Huh? The same Jesus Christ of Israel who instead said that His Father, YHWH — of Israel — sent Him only to the Lost Sheep of Israel, literally indicating that only those whose ancestor is the man called Jacob can reach Him? How can a God who said He cannot be your God if you are a non-Isrealite be your God as a non-Israelite?
