im beginning to feel there aren't any guys out there who believe in commitment. Why cant they value the vows of a boy/girl relationship.

By their fruits, You shall know them. No human is perfect truly, but a true servant of God will strive hard to grow into the perfection of Christ by setting their mind on things above, not earthly things, not making irrelevant comments to wrongly influence their followers. Its sad that many practice religion and have no relationship with God, many. Let us be wise as serpent and gentle as dove for Christ is coming soon. Churches are asleep, False prophets are everywhere.

N.B : when your pastor or leader in church does things against the Bible, Judge them. We are told to, Its called righteous Judgment. Enough of all this wolves devouring people of their money and deceiving them to Hell. Touch not my annointed and do my prophet no harm is different from righteous Judgment. May The God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob have mercy on us through Christ. So be it.

As a country we really need to redefine some of our laws, the truth is, the sales of those properties is backed by law, in private companies generally, some devices and official cars depreciate and it is expected that at the end of the third year, the value of these cars is almost next to nothing and it is sold at a ridiculous (depreciated value) price to staff, the same practice is what is used in the House of Assembly.

However, there is excessive wastage in governance in Nigeria, if this guys will exit after 4 years and these properties sold, why purchase a car worth 24 million Naira and not something cheaper, why do we have an overbloated NA, retinue of assistants when there are begging and more serious needs. Giving the mirade of problems facing the nation, there is no urgency in governance at all levels to effect change, growth if at all will always be insignificant compared to the problems. The worst part which these guys have achieved is that they have constrained the thoughts of the populace, divide them on ethnic and religious lines, the vast majority of the citizens no longer think rationally, because the are now used to a wrong norm, everyone accept what is wrong as norm. There is a need for emancipation from the strong hold of the political elite, renew our minds to what is acceptable norm and forge a common struggle for the prosperity of our nation. Until then, it’s so-so.

Seeking soft landing for the herdsmen or kidnappers.

1. There is a limit to the amount one can withdraw from the ATM for the day.
So, this source is alleging that someone planned a high stake kidnapping,
killed their target, abduct the drive and also killed him just to withdraw about 150K
from his account.

Isn't that the daftest criminal ever?
Why would such a sophisticated criminal risk their lives just to share a meager 150K
when they could be millionaires from ransom collection?

2. How did the source know that his account was cleared?
Bank staff are not permitted to randomly check customers' account balance.
In fact, the source is a prime suspect in the stealing as she has to explain what
she was doing snooping around a dead man's bank account. The police should
pick her up for questioning.

3. No one knows exactly when the cleric was shot dead since it happened at night,
yet, this reporter was making a claim of 25 minutes between the murder and withdrawal
without being a witness to the murder.

I was expecting to see the time of money withdrawal but it wasn't provided I guess so
as not to mess up the theory.

4. It is very common for old people to send trusted younger ones to help them withdraw money
from the ATM so using his pin is no big deal.
The police should not be fooled by this revelation to abandon the search for the real
killers. There are two crimes here:
One is attempted kidnapping and murder while the other is stealing. The murder should be
given a priority.

Angelfrost:
Am I the only one who finds this changing of "pen*s" to "joystick" quite irritating, dumb, unnecessary, and hypocritical?... Like WTF??!

To him who overcomes… (Rev. 2:7b)

Jesus makes a promise connected with overcoming at the end of each of his letters. This promise leads us to wonder, how do I overcome? And what happens if I don’t? Is Jesus saying I can lose my salvation if I fail the overcoming test?

Some define overcoming as a list of things you must do. You have to prevail in life’s trials, disarm spiritual enemies, and conquer every sin. You have to resist temptation, walk in daily victory, and defeat the devil. Do these things to your dying breath and you will earn the right to eat from the Tree of Life, but drop the ball and you’ll be toast. This sort of thinking leads to stressed-out, overworked Christianity such as the Ephesians practiced, and it is not good news.

The word overcomes is a verb that means to conquer, prevail, or get the victory. Look up the word in the dictionary and you will find a picture of Jesus who is the Overcomer. “Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). Jesus has overcome—past tense. The devil couldn’t tempt him, the law lovers couldn’t silence him, Pilate couldn’t fault him, death couldn’t keep him, and the grave couldn’t hold him. Jesus conquered death and he now sits at the right hand of God, bearing a name above every name.

Who is an overcomer?

You are, because Jesus is an overcomer and “as he is, so are we in this world” (1 John 4:17). You cannot be one with the Lord and not be an overcomer any more than you can be one with the ocean and not be wet.

You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4)

This is not a promise of a future reality but a statement of present fact. You have overcome because Christ the Overcomer lives in you. It makes no difference whether you are an old saint or a brand new believer, you are an overcomer because Jesus makes you so.

You may say, “But I don’t feel like an overcomer.”

In Christ, you are an overcomer nonetheless. When you came to the Lord he made you a new creation. He gave you his overcoming DNA and his overcoming Spirit. You are now an overcomer by nature. It’s in your genes.

It is important to let this truth take root in your heart lest you be tempted into the sort of dead works that seduced the Ephesians. If you don’t see yourself as an overcomer in Christ, you will think there are two classes of Christians: There are the super Christians who overcome and are rewarded with special crowns, and then there are the Christian riffraff who frankly don’t deserve to be in the kingdom. This is a false dichotomy. We are all undeserving riffraff, and we are all qualified by grace. Because of Jesus every believer is a crown-wearing tree-of-life-munching overcomer.

But wait, there’s more…

Yet the Bible goes even further than this. “In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us” (Rom. 8:37). The word for conqueror is the same word for overcomer. In Christ you are more than an overcomer, but what does that mean? A conqueror has to fight to get the victory, but we are more than conquerors because Christ has won the war. Because of Jesus, we don’t have to fight. We simply stand on the victory that Christ has accomplished on our behalf. Jesus the Overcomer has done the hard work; our part is to receive the benefits and say, “Thank you, Lord!”

The identity of a conqueror comes from a conquered enemy, but we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Our identity comes from our first love who loved us, and it is a better identity by far. You may say, “I’m a cancer survivor,” or “I’m a recovering alcoholic.” Perhaps you’ve battled with abuse, addiction, or anxiety, and by the grace of God you have conquered or are conquering those enemies. But those enemies don’t define you because you are more than a conqueror. You are not a rape victim; you are a daughter of the Most High. You are not a struggling porn addict; you’re a son of the King. You need to see yourself as God sees you, for it is only with a proper sense of identity—one grounded in God’s love for us—that you can begin to overcome in life’s trials.

How do we overcome?

Through faith in Jesus the Overcomer. In union with Christ, you are an overcomer by nature. You have nothing to prove. To see Christ’s victory in your daily struggles means working out by faith that which the Lord has already accomplished.

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:4–5)

Spiritual warfare for the Christian is less about shouting at the devil and more about believing that Jesus is Lord over whatever situation we face. Unbelief says we must engage the enemy and fight for the victory, but faith declares that Jesus has already won. Unbelief cowers before the name of the adversary, whether it’s disease, debt, or depression. But faith exalts the Name that is above every name.
