jaephoenix:.. righteousness exalt eth a nation.... nowadays how many people are righteous...how many country or nation have many people that are righteous... As the devil is in this Earth and still operating and making people to backslide and commit sins we will not have much righteous people...rlook at the world now we have a lot of sinners and evils going on in the world and countries...so how do you expect a nation to be exalted when they are lot of sinners in that country, nation , the government, politcians are sinners ,hardly to see a righteous person nowadays in many countries.....so because of sins , sinners and evils in many countries countries cannot be exalted...so the government and people have to work to develop the country and make it better due to no much of righteous people and righteousness...so because of what Adam and Eve did in the garden of Eden and sinned and disobeyed God...it annoyed God and God and told Adam before you will eat you will till the ground and farm to get food to eat.. that is too work to eat..he told eve that you will feel pains when you want to give birth to children... In the first place when God created the earth God did not want people to work while in the earth...but because of what Adam and Eve did in the garden of Eden and sinned and disobeyed God...this made people to start to work to eat and earn a living...the earth would had been a paradise a place where people would not need to work hard and hustle if Adam and Eve did not disobey ..God and people would not had work to eat.. and they would had been no evil and sin in the earth... 1 Like |

jaephoenix:You think righteousness is just about being gay or not gay? ππππ. These are nations that look after their poor, upholds transparency, ensures justice is done, and fights for freewill. I would rather be tried by a gay judge that has a conscience, than an idiotic dogmatic religious non-gay clown Judge without a conscience sold to the highest bidder. How will a nation grow when Justice is for sale? |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by NothingDoMe: 5:42pm On Oct 18, 2023 |
wirinet:Like Jesus said to the Pharisees: "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cummin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former" Righteousness is not prayer. |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 2:50pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
NothingDoMe:Well, your view is quite an unpopular one according to Nigerians( even though your view is right). Lemme ask you Would you prefer an atheist gay judge over dogmatic Nigerian judge? And reasons |

jaephoenix:As long as the judge is impartial and dispenses justice, I don't really care if he is an atheist gay and has leprosy. |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 7:19pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
Myer:1. You're further indicting yourself and your god by saying those countries forgot god after he blessed them. Are you saying your god isn't all-knowing, thus he didn't know those nations would 'rebel'? 2. Name the spiritual challenges those countries face 3. LGBTQ has been around for years. And its not a problem. Can you tell me why 2 consenting adults fucking each other causes problems to the society or nation? 4. Can you expatiate more on this transition Nigeria is experiencing? |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 7:21pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
wirinet:Maybe praise causes dopamine rush, but prayers? I don't think so. During prayers, a different hormone and neurotransmitter is predominant |

ufotunang:Bro, I'm just quoting what your bible said. So if you have a problem with it, get across to the scammers in Rome who wrote it, not me |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 7:27pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
ufotunang:Also according to that same bible β Matthew 7:7 βΊ New International Version βAsk and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you β Luke 11:9 βΊ New International Version βSo I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you Isnt it funny the bible speaks from both side of its mouth, confusing anyone who dares read it? It is also spawning different denominations all believing different things |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 7:29pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
nairamaniac:Lol. So god answers your prayers and another person enjoys the dividends of those prayers while god sits back and enjoys? How do people monopolize prayers? Please explain |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 7:32pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
ufotunang:This is getting funnier Who gave Satan his omnipotent, omniscient etc powers? Yahweh! Who created Eden and the tree of knowledge and planted it right in the middle of the garden(not even at the outskirts where it would be out of sight of Adam and Eve) and made it have luscious fruits? Yahweh! Do you now understand your all loving god wanted Adam fvcked from the get-go? So lets from go to genesis. So Yahweh created the whole world, right? There's Eden. He then made a tree of knowledge, and guess what? Planted it right in the middle of the garden. Yahweh knew Adam was gonna fail but planted this forbidden tree right in the middle of the garden with luscious fruits, to distract and tempt Adam. Gave him a partner that would make the temptation very hard to pass up. Then to make matters worse, he allowed Satan(an omnipresent and omnipotent being) to finish the job of tempting Adam? Then when man fails, he turns around to blame him of making the wrong choice? And then went ahead to rain curses in the poor dude. Are you seeing how Yahweh stacked up the odds against poor Adam. Almost as if he wants the dude to fail. Here is an analogy. You(yahweh) sent your son(Adam) to school(garden of eden) and paid a bully(Satan) to distract and beat the child, so he'll fail in school? I used the word 'paid' because he Satan is an upgraded being, having those powers handed to him by Yahweh. Whats his target? A puny Adam, a regular mortal with no powers whatsoever |

Ginomel:Lol. Nigerians are even do the loudest prayers. My neighbor would wake up by 3am to pray, disturbing the whole block. And doesn't care if s/he wakes up everyone. In those sane countries that don't like prayers, they'll call the cops on him or her. Yet all those prayers are useless |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 7:37pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
blueAgent:Who are the millions? Nigerians? Bro, I haven't uttered a word of prayer for more than 2 decades yet not only am I alive, but I feed people that pray everyday. I look at them and laugh but I can't knock them cos they are my family and I love them despite their stupidity |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by Myer(m): 9:31pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
jaephoenix: 1. He respects our right to choose. He gave us will power so that we are not like robots. We can choose to obey or disobey. We can choose to submit to authority or rebel against authorrity. We can choose life or death. We can choose to forgive or nor forgive and we can choose to repent or not repent, we can choose to love or hate. Etc Each choice bearing its commensurate consequences. 2. Most of them don't believe in God. They can have no peace of mind or joy. They depend on things, substances, events for solace. 3. Is rebellion against divine order. It does not obey the blessing of fruitfulness. It corrupts others. 4. There's a spiritual transition from religion to Christ-likeness/Godliness. And there's a manifestation of it in various spheres/sectors of the country- Political, Business, Academical, Social etc. |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by Ginomel(m): 10:19pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
jaephoenix: To me, such prayer is useless when someone simply refused that others will sleep. Nigerians and their mentality |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by nairamaniac: 11:22pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
jaephoenix: We the masses pray for Wealth upon our dear country Nigeria. God blessed us with crude oil. The oil is sold for billions of dollars. The richmen eat all the dollars. By that, they have monopolized the dividends of our prayers. God doesn't sit back. He punishes them in his own ways even without us knowing when&how. |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by ufotunang: 11:27pm On Oct 19, 2023 |
jaephoenix:...ok no problem...I thought you will say after you have prayed , then God will come down from heaven to give you money and food to eat..... and all those word of God written in the Bible were not written by scammers...God directed them on what to write...the Bible is not fake...but to achieve or get all those good things written in the Bible. the person must wok... apply some work....all those good things written in the Bible... and the chapter and bible verses you showed me above, all those things will not come in a platter of gold...the person must still apply some work to achieve them |

Major7: And what happens to the lean chickens and ram? They are saved ehh? Even if your analogy made sense, we can conclude that since all die be die, you might as well die a fat chicken than a lean one. |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by Major7: 2:49pm On Oct 20, 2023 |
kimco: You can't analyse the things of the spirit using logic,you will ended up being confused cos it will make little or no sense. My quote was meant for those that operates in the realm of the spirit no offense |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 3:15pm On Oct 20, 2023 |
Myer:1. Again, (like most Christians) you completely deviated from the point. Lemme repeat. According to you, Yahweh blessed those countries when they were worshipping him but they eventually stopped doing it. Does it mean Yahweh didnβt know they would rebel? Also is Yahweh still blessing them currently? 2. Really? Non religious people depend on drugs for joy? Iβm aware they use drugs but some of those countries don't use as much drugs as Nigerians. Are you aware Nigerians use recreation drugs too? Is it atheists that use crystal meth(meth) in Nigeria? Where is your stats that back your claim? Or are you those that get their knowledge from their pastors? 3. Obviously some people dont give diving fvcks about divine order. Neither do i. What is the advantage of heeding this divine order? 4. Nigeria transitioning to godliness with the increasing level of corruption, prostitution, robbery, online fraud etc. You dey whine me ni? |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 3:16pm On Oct 20, 2023 |
Ginomel:Its still a prayer nevertheless. And you are not in a position to say which prayers are useless or not. You're not the recipient(Yahweh) |
Re: Nigeria Is 2nd Most Prayerful Country On Earth by jaephoenix(m): 3:22pm On Oct 20, 2023 |
nairamaniac:1. Corrections, Yahweh didnβt give Nigeria oil. Its a natural resource which many other irreligious countries received. 2. Part of the prayers people pray is for Yahweh to change the leaders mind so these oil dollars get to them. But guess what? Yahweh has ignored that part of the prayers. He doesn't just give a praying fvck about where the money goes. 3. How exactly does Yahweh punish those corrupt politicians/leaders? Last I check, they live in big mansions, drive the exotic cars, get the best women, have kids schooling abroad, have access to best healthcare etc |
