That is not true either !

majority of them two are in prison, some have useless their lives with drugs. What I of the prosperity of Christians, is a gradual process. It takes time but build over time. Those wayward ones he thought they are doing well got theirs in crooked ways, and majority of them are living a life without happiness, some are even wishing to be like him. As a Christian, if you are focus and ambitious, you must definitely make it, is a matter of time.

Dear Nairalanders, there is something that I don't really understand about life or let me say religion. I know some people may see it as luck or destiny. But if we call it destiny, then every Christian or all child of God suspose to be prosper and leave a better life than Dangote.

Because according to Jeremiah 29:11 New International Version that's says For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

But when I check those guys we call pastors and Alfa in School (University) they don't play with Church Fellowship or Mosque prayers, they get the best results, as in when it come to Education, they are very sound but most of this people end up teaching in one local private school or the other. While those Stubborn guys, that go to Club and party every night, many of them manage to get Third class but they end up in better companies, some are abroad while some are in government.

Also, those ladies that doesn't allow man to touch thier hand not to talk of hugs, infact majority of them are still virgin base on thier looks and behavior ( Not all). They always reserve thier body for thier future husband Many of those ladies too are on the street looking for husband up till now and looking old now. Even those that marry among them are still looking for the friut of the womb. But those strippers, Club girls, they hardly attend attend class and many of them even graduated with poor result get the best husband, have beautiful kids and better job.

Now my question is, why those who lived a wayward life in school get better opportunities than Church goer or those Alfa?

There's something call networking and communication skill.

No one is born with it, you learn it through interacting with people of various origin. An average open-minded weed blower will meet and have a more meaningful conversation with quality people than an average churchgoer. And the dope thing is that a weed smoker can also be a churchgoer, but a deluded Jesus seeker will always be locked up in a very small circle. If that circle is useless and not influential, then the life trajectory of the churchgoer is very predictable.

Go out there, mingle with great minds and succeed. The world is populated with more “Hell-bound” people. Wise up. Don't judge anyone, you're not better than anyone just because you think Jesus loves you.

I would think it is obvious that you can be successful without networking but your kind of network increases your shot at success.

Kobojunkie:
Forget that nonsense that you are fed in todays world about networking being key to success. Before the internet and the last century, success existed regardless of how networked or connected a person was.

Y

One word "NETWORKING"

Kobojunkie:
Because they are not under Law and so not bound by consequences of the Law, including curses .
You see, what your Mogs fail to warn you is that when you make a decision to become of God by believing in Jesus Christ, you entire existence is brought subject to the Law of the New Covenant, the blessings and the curses.

kobojunkie u Don start o, which curse in the new testament? From what you're saying now it is not good to be a Christian abi? Please this your teaching will chase people from Christ because if I was not a believer, I would never serve an unfair God who will curse his Children.

This is very misleading

You don nail am on the right point.

HeadNigga:

Religion should not stop you from networking. Don't be a bigot

There is no statistical evidence to back up what you wrote, however it's understandable.

For those that are truly wayward / criminal and successful, I'd put it down to d network effects of broken corrupt society and you can be certain karma does catch up.

Look at the likes of Hush puppy, efcc arrests, single baby mamas everywhere ( ex run's girls) etc.

When Nigeria gets it right, the smart and righteous will reign, if not the wicked will rule..

This is just false generalisation..

Julianaa:
I still regret going to church in my school almost everyday


It almost ruined my life, though I learnt a few things

I stopped after my second year

You stopped early and I dont think that is worth regretting for. You could still make more worth of the time in the third and fourth year na. Even if you dey go church with sense sef while also monitoring your life and not depending on the so called faith which is mostly hopeful fantasy, it is not bad = This is what some call Faith with work.

But here we are talking of who depended all through on the church during their stay in school and after school sef (believing they are the best of saints and that God will take care of everything concerning them with little effort from their side), and thereafter water pass garri because the REALITY is shocking especially in a country like Nigeria.

Oga I don't know what world you live in but if it's Thai world, then it "runs on God". God na be the program weh de run the whole world. The great American dollar has somewhere "in God we trust"

As for the pastors life rging..Well I dont know about them. But good guys run the world. All of the setups are run by the good guys. It's aware of world out there in which the good guys have been winning since time in memorial and keeping the bad guys behind bay. Whatever money bad guys have, good guys have multiple times over. In short the money bad guys have is only as much as good guys allow them to have. They operate on borrowed time.

One of the most profound psychogical truth we obtain is figuring out how to kill bad guys off or incaserate them. Criminals, murderers thieve, cunning men, name them. They are eliminated or spend their yrs hiding. That was how the world became a steady place. We killed lot of bad guys..I mean lots of them. See this girl that just killed someone. We are going to kill are. By we I mean good guys. The truth is that the good guys are the real bad guys.
..watch how all the bad guys associated with her name will go into hiding when the heat is trained on. So dont you for once go on thinking the bad guys are running things. No. Good guys run things. Bad busy hide in the shadows.. when the light is turned on they scram.


Go to all the top function institution you will find absolute good guys. Absolute good guys. Police, navy, formal institutions name it. This are the people who retain the original spirit of the place. Otherwsise left for the bad ones, things would go to dogs. So stay positive and you will withness positivity. Be negative about it. It will return as negative for you.

That’s because when one was busy looking out ways to make money, the other wasn’t cautious of time used in religious activities, you have to balance it, God doesn’t give you money, your experience gives you that.

As a Christian, no matter how focused and ambitious you are, you are promised suffering and afflictions by Jesus Christ. The wayward/unbeliever does not live under such a yoke.

As a Christian, your "success" is measured not by the world's standards, but by standards set by Jesus Christ. So when Stephen was stoned to death, even a a young man probably in his 20s, he was a success story. For the wayward/unbeliever, there are no such limits as the world is indeed their oyster.

As a Christian, your very continued existence is bound to your successful submission to and obedience of the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, so sins and curses attack as you reject God's law. The unbeliever/wayward man who is not under such a yoke is not inhibited in such a way.

You are right, they fail to network, and expect all the good things of life to come to them base on their ignorant perception, judging other people lifestyle in school without knowing their religion background...they call everyone sinner, science, engineering and medical student they even hear am pas for their hand back then in school..not to talk of party guys and clubs guys.

Quite a nice thought...Overtly religious people are extremely judgmental...

A pure soul I choose over religious fanatics..

What?

You dont know that the New Covenant is styled by God in much the same way as the Old Covenant, complete with blessings curses, seal, commandments, ritual/ceremony, eligibility, Kingdom. and even a name by which the Covenant can be invoked?

And here I was scolding someone of another religion of missing that.

The op just isn't being objective and factual

On the long run
I can even say it's the genuinely religious ones that on the long run have a better life
When you look at the end

Many of this wayward ones end miserably or die untimely
While the genuine religious ones still live long

I have a relative that was being told to fear and respect God
He was doing big man with money
But his life was snuffed out of him
With all his money at a young age

While the other relative has been a man that feared God right from his youths
Today he is still alive, very strong and healthy even in his late seventies, his family intact, not poor, very comfortable

While almost all his mates died untimely

Anybody that glorifies wayward life I am sorry for him
It does not pay one bit
Many young people living wayward life today
If they don't change
May likely die untimely death
I have seen it again and again

Righteousness pays big time
Any person believing those lies may die premarturly

Proverbs 12 vs 28 says; in the way of righteousness is life, and in the pathway thereof, there is no death

Proverbs 14 vs 34 righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to any people

Sin is a reproach
Genuine righteousness exalts
So the op should stop spreading lies

@OP this is not true..

The pastors and alfas that are not doing well didn't have the right mindset about life after school while some of the bad boys actually have rich and connected parents in the society with jobs waiting for them.

Please let's be careful with our posts so we don't lead the young ones astray.. do your best and hope for the best. There is no gain in being wayward or living a carefree lifestyle.

The wakabout girls getting married quick is true to an extent because they are exposed to acts of seduction and have experience in pleasing men sexually, not SU that will be waiting for Christ's signal to get down with a guy. We all need God's grace in all we do be it sinner or saint.

You're not far from the truth my dear the stubborn ones in secondary school then (bad boys) are doing better than the good ones today, they have made money from internet fraud, build houses, gotten cars, married and even started families the serious church minded bookworms na dey suffer the current economic situation in the country.

For example, Chidinma the reigning killer

You need to read the book "As A Man Thinketh" or get the audio and listen to it. In the book James Allen the author said a man can be blessed and be a failure while a man can be cursed and be a success by world's standard at least. He said there is nobody who is completely bad and no one who is completely righteous. A righteous man may have some vices which make him fail in life while a wicked man may have virtues that help him to succeed. I think it has to do with the principle of God and the person of God. If you have one and not the other you will suffer the lack of it wherever it is needed. For example a born again brother or an Alfa may be lazy, he only care about eating, he doesn't want to hussle at all. In this case even if he could pray and get some money he will spend all instead of investing. Whereas a club guy in school is a hard worker hustling hard and very ambitious, he will definitely start seeing the results of his hardwork because that's one of the principle of God, it must work all things being equal. A righteous sister may feel so holy that she looks down on any man who is not totally committed to God while her mates are busy getting married to regular guys who drinks and may have side chicks, also if a righteous person doesn't see himself doing big things there is no way he can achieve them because just like the bible say as a man thinketh so is he. Many of those pious people you talk about have relationship with God but have refused to develop their relationship with fellow human being. They judge and hate. Christian hating Muslim, Muslim hating christian, wealth is found in people and when you already ostracized half of the world population in your mind you are on a long thing. A christian sister cannot be a second wife or marry a Muslim, a Muslim sister refuse to marry christian man. If you move close to many of those so called successful wayward school mates you will see their life is not perfect but only in the public. In fact you will uncover many can of worms.
Meanwhile from my own observations those of my mates who were committed to the things of God went ahead and live a successful easy life, and many that I interviewed who seem to be wayward in school and now successful they have a righteous background, a pastor parent, a practicing Muslim home, a christian praying mother, in fact I cannot count how many of them I know. And believe me the beginning does not count, if you just graduated and you see some people shooting out like stars, wait till at least ten years after to make conclusion, the only thing some of these righteous school mates may have may be a quiet peaceful life, no lack, good marriage, good health, happy family and those ones that developed ambition among them will be flying high whereas their wayward counterpart will begin to reap the fruits they planted years ago. Broken marriages, poor health, job loss, wayward children etc because they did not go through the process needed to maintain a good life, The main thing is to have God and practice His principles. In the principle of God every success is sure AND in the person of God you overcome any obstacle life might throw at you and secure your future.

You just nailed it allllll.


One bottle of ijaw and nkwobi for you.

The devil loves this narrative so much, he would do anything to keep selling it. To human.

His aim is to make many people become very reprobate and to undermine their faith in and service to God. He would never make souls like the op to see children of God doing well and prospering.

The moment you buy into this so called 'observation', you unconsciously begin a slide into reprobacy until you mind becomes seared.

It's one thing to compete to gain access to the heavenly kingdom, it is another thing to compete for favors in this world. Most times those who focus on books alone and good character often fall short of presentation and social skills. If you cannot make your interviewer say wow or smile in agreement, 9 out of 10 times you're not getting the job.

You finished with first class, so what? Can you sell me this product/service in one minute using jokes? How do you deal with a difficult situation where a co-worker feels threatened by your voice? These are just some of the behavioral interviews companies like to dish out nowadays,as you can see it has nothing to do with theories or book smart.

The fact of the matter reamians true, don't just ask God for knowledge but ask him for wisdom. Knowledge is passing exams with flying colors, wisdom is helping your peers in the exam hall to pass as well and in the process build relationships that will help you in the future. Knowledge is memorizing all the formulas and theories, wisdom is realizing your interviewer is a Chelsea fan and using one of those theories to discuss why Kepa was not able to save a goal from a close velocity and angle......

Op, your just one sided on this. God is never partial, he wants the best for all his Children. But you see, life is principles. You can be very Holy but if you don't work, you won't eat. The Children of the world apply these principles and get result but most times, Christians just sit down, fold their hands, and expect God to wave his magic wand and then thing's would just fall on them. No, Holiness won't take the place of work, socializing, etc

And secondly, don't make it sound like these things only happen to Christians. No, they are common to man. Both Christians and none Christians face these Challenges. The difference is that the Christian can apply the Principles of God's word and scale through.

Lastly, the system of the world supports or encourages sin. And if you want to maintain your Christian standard, you will face opposition.

The devil has nothing to do with this. In fact those of you who see devil everywhere you look are more danger to the faith than any other kind out there.

Una kind see devil pass Jesus Christ Himself.

Jesus Christ literally promised all those who will follow Him suffering and Tribulation but here you declare that these things are common to men?

TripleOh7:


Catholic priests cannot be compared to pentecost pastors though.

They are better educated and more rounded in terms of world religions.

As a matter of fact, I do know a couple of priests who after ordination went to study Arabic and Islamic knowledge to better understand the Islamic religion.

One of them was a white Irish man and was popularly called father-alhaji. Lol

am not comparing dumb ass, that's all you people do compare the members of the ones you are born into with the ones that exist outside your birth cycle, they are all birds of the same feathers cashing out on gullible people...priest are even worse when you bring all there rape cases and molestation of children
