NuclearWinter: In my experience in life, most scammed victims are conned owing to their own greed.
We should ask him how much he paid for the piece of land and compare to how much it is actually worth .
You will see that he thought he was being smart by grossly underpaying.
This reminds of a well to do woman who was stripped naked and beaten by Fabric traders in down turn Lagos .
The woman had been scammed by a tout who flashed her a very expensive fabric material while she was stuck in traffic.
The woman quickly agreed to buy the fabric at a very ridiculous rate and after paying the tout, she found to her dismay that what she bought was mostly rags and paper concealed on the surface by a piece of the expensive lace. She cried out immediately but the scammer was long gone but this attracted the attention of people and some of the fabric dealers. When she recounted her ordeal to them, the fabric dealers asked how much she paid to the tout, as soon as she revealed the ridiculous amount these women pounced on her and began bearing her telling her that it is her type that encourage thieves who come and rob their shops and how did she think she could pay such an amount for an expensive lace without knowing it must have been stolen.
Moral of my rants: greed sets the stage for being scammed. Original Zobo!!!! |

Donkenny511: Islam is the religion of Peace, anyone who is not peaceful is not a Muslim.
Hadith one stated that: You are not a Muslim until you wish for your neighbor what you wish for yourself
Should we say Christianity is a religion of fraud because some pastors are scamming people?
Or should we say all Man of God didn't hear from God because some of them give false prophesy?
I am a Muslim and I have never hurt anyone before because you didn't share the same religious beliefs with me.
Unknown Gunmen are not Muslim, the killing in the East are not done by Muslim.

I don't support the soldiers actions at all and the soldiers need to be punished. However, on the part of the police men, since the traffic was being controlled manually and not through traffic light, in the spirit of esprit d'corps the police should have let the lane the soldiers where continue and stopped that lane after.
An analogy would be the way pregnant women and old people are given preference even when there is a queue. |

Christianity Etc › Re: 7 Bible Verses For Overcoming Poverty by Phraences: 11:41am On Oct 31, 2021 |
PoliteActivist: No one is talking about being poor, we are talking about accumulation of earthly riches. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these other things (your NEEDS) will be given unto you." That's another verse prosperity preachers intentionally misrepresent. On social media especially Instagram, when a celebrity displays affluence and luxury, you see people saying “God when?”. Average life is now seen as mediocrity. You must be rich enough to travel to Dubai from time to time, have expensive cars and mansions etc Money, Money, Money!!!! And the economic situation in Nigeria is not helping matters. People want to be rich because of the power and freedom it will bring. |

BigYash: I'm not being selective. Believe what you believe and leave every other nigga to what he believes. The Bible is wide and people do interpret it differently. Since I discovered the truth,nobody in this Christianity can tell me shit. God is not an author of confusion .. Old or new Testament God's word doesn't support poverty. For my sake he even became poor,so that I will be rich. So,my guy if you are poor,its a sin already. That is what I blive.. So blive what you blive and let me blive mine. Nobody holy pass my guy..

Kobojunkie: Scripture is not meant to be used as source of incantations to help ward away whatever ill-luck you wish. Instead, Scripture is meant to help fill you with knowledge of God and His Truth so that through obedience of His Will, you can partake of His benefits.  Thank you. This is what prosperity gospel has done to Christians. If it is by chanting Bible verses, every Christian in Nigeria would be rich. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Does God Really Bless People Financially? by Phraences: 7:52pm On Oct 30, 2021 |
Kobojunkie: Where in scripture did you get this bit that everyone is a child of God? 
We are all sons of man, but the title of child of God is not for all.  According to the Bible, God created every one. So I don’t understand what you mean. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Does God Really Bless People Financially? by Phraences: 7:30pm On Oct 30, 2021 |
SouthMustBeFree: Sincerely I do appreciate all the comments coming in. This is not to argue whatsoever. But the truth is, who is righteous if that is the exact criteria for God to help a man? Who is righteous. Again, if righteousness is the criteria, does it now mean that God has never prospered anybody because even scripture says non is righteous and that our righteousness is as a filter rag before God. So how do you then claim God blesses only when one is righteous, yet we have billionaires and millionaires littered all over when God said there is non righteous?
Honestly, I need indept and detail interpretations because truly I want to see to the end of my situation. But of course I will know the truth and the truth will make me free. Even unrighteous people prosper. Even the atheist is God’s child. Matt 5:45 He makes his sun rise on the evil and the good and sends rain on the just and the unjust. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Does God Really Bless People Financially? by Phraences: 7:23pm On Oct 30, 2021 |
SouthMustBeFree: Dear Nairalanders,
Please I need answers to my inner most question about God. My question is; does God really get involved in blessing people or He God has finished His assignment and the rest left to man to handle?
This question has been coming hard on me because of all I have been going through financially. I have believed this God that sometimes people think am mad. I have been doing my business to the best I can, I have been praying so hard, I have been attending church services and giving my offerings yet I go through a lot like a prodigal son. I am seriously in pain, my heart aches and bleeds at the same time and am losing my mind.
My heart is really aching to be honest with you all and I must say am considering other options of how to get rich because it seems God doesnt answer the prayer for breakthrough. Honestly, I have a thousand reason to believe God doesn't help any man get rich.
Please I need candid advice at this moment only from more matured Christians in the house. Please don't bash me because it is not a funny situation with me at the moment as I have been in need of money to do things and yet non is coming forth. Hmmm! That you are a child of God does not mean you won’t go through trying times. Also, the prosperity doctrine being peddled by preachers today makes it seem as if you are a Christian and you are not prospering financially then maybe you do not have faith or you are not praying/fasting/tithing enough. Sometimes in terms of finance/business, it is best to rely on your own power. What do I mean? Think of it this way. If you became aware today that there was no God, no being in control of your life, what would you do? You would probably sit down and analyze why things are not going well. Do you need to switch businesses or get another job, or do more networking. I am a Christian but still struggle with my faith. If I don’t pray today or miss some days of prayer and something bad happens i start wondering if it is because of the missed prayer. When things are not going well, i start wondering what sort of prayer/fasting favored people are doing that i am not doing. Perhaps I am not decreeing and declaring enough? Or is the doubt in my heart visible for God to see and so chooses not to bless me? So many thoughts always running through my head. And then i see atheists/sinners who are prospering and I just find myself wondering. I hate the doubt in my spirit but can’t seem to get rid of it. |

Rayjnr: US, media want us to see the country as the safest in the world, but in reality apart from their top men, no one is safe in that country especially blacks. In Nigeria, you can identify a mad man from his clothes or lack of it. In US, so many unstable people looking normal. Someone will just from nowhere punch someone on the face. A man will attack a woman in a train and people will be standing there looking. Not like the man is holding a weapon o! They will just be standing there looking. |

The worst thing that can happen to a father is seeing his children take silly decisions because of love after he has invested so much on them. If love is very important to you, why not find a royal blood and love him. The same foolishness exhibited by Prince Harry who abandoned royalty because of toto. His eyes will soon clear. Free money. The money is for royals who leave and she went without taking it. They are not even against her marrying the commoner. Just take money and go. Na wa o! Oyibo kind of love.
