Nigerian Women Empowerment Advocate, and Clergywoman, Pastor Funke- Felix Adejumo of Agape Ministry, has dropped another teachings on moving with those who are better than you in a group or as friends, and leave those who you are better than.

She plainly said that if you are the richest among your friends, that relationship has expired or you should quit it and move on.

She gave the example of Joseph in prison who moved with rich prisoners.

How About the Siblings of old testament Joseph?

How about the sibling of the Prodigal son?

How about Cain?

Reason Why I said many of you DO NOT understand Human nature!
Just hope you don't learn the Hard Way!

Newboss:
Typical Nigerian woman.

That logic does not even make any sense.

So the richest man in the world will not have any one close to him because he's obviously richer than all men.

Logic is not women's strength

Where is 'we rise by lifting others' ?

naturefellow:
begs the question, what kind of siblings you have

I'm actually bewildered by this

Vinnie2000:



Correct, Dats it!
I See so many Emotions-driven or maybe Poverty mentality caused criticism of What the pastor said!!

But Really, We humans have an unpredictable and jealous mind!
When A Close Person is Progressing Astronomically and we re Stagnant, Envy tends to Creep in!!

All dis Nairaland Critics will learn Sha, wen dey get Rich!!

urchcoded:
Well, you might be a pastor. That doesn't mean you must have sense. Friendship is not about money.

RapistOnBail:


I totally agree with her, even though I know that pastorship is a business venture.

Jealousy in the black race is so much that even your siblings will plan to kill you the moment they see signs of progress in you.

Anybody wey get money and still Dey hangout with him poverty friends should know say him days for this earth Don dey near END! This is serious ! So love for money can make us betray even the sincere poor ones amongst us. But does it align with Christ teachings?

Blackfire:
This one na who again??

Leaforever:
Some of these guys have conflated the gospel of Jesus Christ with motivational speaking.
What is the spirit of God's business with having rich friends or poor friends? Gosh!

SMH. PENTECOSTALISM HAS FINISHED NIGERIAN CHRISTIANITY. HEARING THIS KIND OF MESSAGE FROM CATHOLIC ARE RARE. EVEN ME AS A MUSLIM FAITHFUL I CONDEMN THIS.
MUCH RESPECT TO THE CATHOLIC FAITHFUL. JUST IMAGINE THAT EVERYONE LEAVES ALL THE PEOPLE YOU ARE DOING BETTER THAN. WHERE IS THE LOVE?

When you become rich, stop living among the poor; go to where those as rich as you are live. If you live among them, you'd eventually go back to their poverty level. You can help them from afar off o.

A friend living in a slum bought a car, the next guests he got were robbers.

If he had bought the car in the midst of those who had better cars, would he have been a victim of robbery?

reddingtonblack:




So according to you envy is a trait synonymous to poor people and its something all poor friends must exhibit because you are rich.
Do you know Neymar jnr that plays football or nigerian footballer ihenacho, maybe even Psquare .. i don't know how much you have buh all these guyz have one thing in common ... their best friends are poor compared to what they are worth, you reach any of dem

Who told you a rich friend can't envy you, do you even know there are times even the rich envy the poor. the problem is both the wise & fools now have platforms to spew out whatever comes to there mind, people hardly think tinz thru
