Christianity EtcRe: Coronavirus: Is It Safe To Attend Church by Professorcplus(m): 12:41pm On Feb 29, 2020
[b]My brother, why put doubt in your mind. The book of psalm 23vs4 says. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. So fear not for the lord is with you.

In the same book psalm 91vs7 says A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you . So you see even if covic19 is killing thousand of people iT will never come close to you. Never doubt thy Lord your God. Go forth and heal covic19 patient, show them love, kiss and hug them for the power is upon you.

The book of Luke 10vs19 says have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. Not even corona virus from snake will harm you because you already have authority over it.

But remember if you catch corona is not me that tell you to go to church o. The bibles says it in Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or unclothedness or danger or sword not even covic19? So go forth and prosper

RELIGION CALLED NIGERIA
-Zeal Akaraiwe

I’ve held back from writing this for a while, but the events in the last few weeks and comments from Nigerians on radio and social media have made me rethink that stance.

I find it humorously exhilarating that people are generally on the same page when it comes to what our dear country’s problem is NOT.
Most agree it’s not the man at the top as we are aware that many of the major problems dominant today pre-existed him. It’s certainly not the poor men at the bottom, at least not in any mind boggling financial capacity. Many (I wish more) agree it’s not even the widely blamed corruption as this is more a manifestation and a symptom of a major sickness.
Most, if not all, Nigerians would list at least one of the following as our biggest problem, which they believe if solved, would fix the entire nation: (1) power, (2) security, (3) education, (4) employment, (5) road-network/transportation and (6) poverty (7) corruption. What we all fail to realize, is that all of these things are
merely symptoms of a much deeper issue.

Compounding this problem for us, is the fact that the longer a symptom is left to fester, the more it takes on the characteristics of the problem and would almost certainly need a solution of its own. Unfortunately, our ogas-at-the-top seem, or at least pretend, to concentrate energy and resources on tackling and fighting one or more of the symptoms without ever addressing the root causes.

I believe that most human beings, and of course Nigerians, are generally driven and motivated by their belief systems, be it faith or fear. Our character as a nation is now largely dependent on these, and the questions must be asked of faith: What is our faith? Where is our faith developed? Is our faith being developed at all? Whether you worship on Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday, is your faith being developed in such a way that your character is growing positively towards being your brothers’ keeper?

Of fear: What do we fear? Are we taught the punishment of The Almighty exists at all? Are we afraid of the laws of the land? Do we have a conscience that berates us for wrong doing? Do we even know what is right and wrong anymore?
I’ve been thinking about it and I’m now convinced that I may have identified one of our “ROOT” problems. Please note I said “root problem” and I also said “one of” so feel free to add yours. The problem? Religion! The institutions and the leaders.

I do not write this to critise the churches, nor their pastors, nor those who attend. I write this in the hope that all those of us who call for accountability within our government, who call for responsibility within our political class, who abhor the decay in our society and country, see that we need to task ourselves by searching out truth within ourselves first. And where more to start, than in the institutions whose primary responsibility is to teach and propagate truth, honesty, love, kindness, decency etc.

For a start, I grew up in a society where your MORALS and VALUE systems were well built up largely in one of 3 places: home, church and school. On the home front, your parents’ morals were really built in church. In school, your teachers’ morals were also built in church and at home. So, elementary mathematics states if x=y and y=z then x=z i.e. the church plays a significant role in shaping our values, our morals, our conscience and most importantly, when we do go astray, in correcting us and reeling us back to where we ought to be.

I recall during my NYSC in the late 90s when my cousin said he wanted to go to Bible school, I was like “Dude, can you even spell Bible?” But his logic was simple, “It’s a good business to go into – easy money and tax free.” He said this despite the fact that it was sacrilege at that time to even think that you would want to start a church without a calling from The Almighty!

In my younger days in church, we were taught about right and wrong ; but today I look at my generation and those following and, the truth is, nothing is ever wrong. It’s all ‘relative’ and about what is ‘convenient’. We were taught honesty and it didn’t matter if you were caught or not. Today, it’s about what you can get away with and if you get caught, it’s your ‘enemies’ plotting your downfall and if you don’t get caught, then “God himself must have orchestrated your getaway”! Just make sure you bring back the requisite 10% of the loot to appease Him and it’s all good.

I recall a friend who bought a BMW in 2001, but took “young-shall-grow” night bus to see his folks for fear that they would set the car ablaze as he couldn’t explain where the money for it came from. I can picture that scenario today in many homes – blessings and prayer would follow without a question as to how the money was made. The end justifies the means.

We were taught about kindness . I still recall that it was seen as awkward to get to church with only one occupant in a car; we used to stop at bus stops looking for people to give a ride. Do I hear you say “Nigeria was different then”? It definitely was, but who and what has made it different? US! You and I!!
We were also taught about working hard and working well – ‘going the extra mile’. These principles eliminated the cancer we have today called mediocrity – but let me not digress.

I look around today and realize, the answer to many (if not all) of our woes isn’t very far-fetched; not too hard to think about if you consider the parable our Lord gave about sowing seeds that fell amongst thorns, it’s short-lived because worldly cares choked the life out of it.

We criticize the politicians and leaders for surrounding themselves with sycophants who merely tell them what they want to hear and let the truth go to blazes; and yet, I just imagine how quickly we would abandon a church/pastor/imam who dares tells us the truth that we have erred and need to make restitution. Oops, did I say “restitution”? I can hear some ask “What is that?” Are we really any different from the so-called evil politicians?
Nigeria is plagued with liars and thieves, self-willed individuals and the blind leading the blind; we are plagued with churches and pastors (note small ‘C” and small ‘P”) who are businessmen!! Don’t get me wrong here, I have nothing against men of God who have a calling to be Pastors and lead Churches (capital P and capital C).

My problem is the fact that a lot, if not all, of those who fall into one or more of the symptomatic categories above spend all day on Sunday (or any other day their religion dictates) going to listen to a self-titled CEO, who heads a tax-free enterprise, who’s well versed in motivational speaking, gone to a theological school and stands on a pulpit with a microphone . These are those that I refer to as businessmen, though they stand on a pulpit and preach.

We are a generation of prosperity preachers and believers! I have nothing against prosperity; however, I have a major issue, when it is preached at the cost of the true gospel – honesty, kindness, hard work, being your brothers’ keeper etc. We preach that if you are making money, of which no one cares the means anymore, then The Almighty must be happy with you and therefore whatever you do/did to make the money is ok. And again, please do not forget God’s share of 10% to launder your conscience.

Ask yourself in silence and honesty, when last did you hear from a pulpit, the words holiness or kindness; fairness or equity; humility or service? Then think about the last time you heard the words prosperity, blessing, abundance, promotion. How can we sit back and believe that bad things are “not our portion” when we do nothing to prevent decay in our society; we sit and condone illegal behavior, celebrate mediocrity and even wickedness.

So, it’s neither politics, nor bad politicians; it’s not corruption nor indisciplined officials; it’s not the lack of good workers nor is it poverty. All these are certainly major problems we have, but are all symptoms of the real problem and have, with time, become so core in our system it is now hard to recognize as symptoms; hence we attack them wondering why there are no results not realizing that a symptom may dissipate, but will only manifest somewhere else as something else.

Forgive me as I attempt to link a lot of psychological and theoretic dots here – May have been sitting in a church Sunday after Sunday, for years on end, obeying, whole-heartedly, what we hear from the pulpit. This then forms into a habit. We are unable to recognize nor follow the TRUE teaching of our Faith that requires us to have a PERSONAL relationship with our creator in a way that He can speak to you. We sit under the tutelage of people who sometimes are as clueless as us, and worse, sometimes even pretenders. They give instructions for us to act upon and tell us that The Almighty has spoke through them – we believe – hook, line, sinker. We believe because we are either too lazy, too brainwashed or too scared to search the Holy Book and verify what we hear. We believe because we are too guilt laden to object. We believe because we feel that blind obedience is a small price to pay even if we are wrong; we believe because we lie to ourselves that it is better to be safe than sorry. What safety? We become like slaves to a hard master; we are in a mental state akin to drug addicts. What does all this habit then do to us? We become psychologically intimidated and it makes us refuse to ask questions.

Expand this growing attitude a little and you will then understand why a large majority of the church-going population have formed a habit of not asking questions; of not holding accountable those in authority; for not verifying the blatant lies we hear from the ogas-at-the-top; for having an aloof attitude to our being raped, plundered, mauled emotionally, financially and psychologically – for we have gotten used to all this and we have formed the habit of accepting, as Fela put it, sorrow, tears and blood – and I will add, torture, theft and death.
We now believe we have no option but to wait for the CREATOR to come from heaven, wear a suit, contest elections and rule us!

Can we, as a people be this naïve and idiotic……I don’t know, but I look around and I believe the answer is abundantly clear.

Nigeria isn’t a bad country, it’s the inhabitants that make it what it is.

RomanceRe: I Put Drugs In My Husband's Food Before Having Intercourse With Him-lady by Professorcplus(m):
[b]Yoruba adage says "If a wife doesn't kill her self, she will kill her husband". This is the way some wife kill their husband unknowingly.

Imagine if the husband decided to branch his side chick house after work. He was quite assured there would be sagging; a good way to ease stress, he branch pharmacy, brought 3 doses of sex enhancer drug and took it. Unknown to him his side chick already added 3 doses of same sex enhancer to his fruit juice. Before the action take place, his side chick main guy calls that he will be in her house in a moment so the action is brought to halt. The drug was already reacting and the husband couldn't hold himself, so he headed home. When he got home, his wife serve him a plate of pepper soup with 3 doses of same sex enhancer added unknown to him.

9 doses of sex enhancer already in husbands system. His thing stand gidiga like solider on parade. Right Now, the husband is pounding his wife like horse grin . The wife is screening loud begging his husband for help running helter skelter around the room. The husband died while his thing is at attention. The only reasonable explanation people could utter was the husband Don jam Magu. Imagine who kill the husband? Wife, side chick, husband himself or village people grin ' [/b]

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNT
1. Every Empire has its rise which was invoked by a person or group of people. Eg. Babylonian, Roman, Ottoman and British Empire.

2. Empire is expanded through recruitment of followers and soldiers and costly wars.

3. Every conquered city will be imposed with the belief, culture, teaching and lifestyle of the conquerer.

4. Political decisions are made which sharpens the society and the ones that preceded it.

5. Lastly, must be fall of empire which is caused by external invader, recession, internal civil war, and regional ruler.

HealthRe: Share Your Sleep Paralysis Experience Here. by Professorcplus(m):
[b] Mine has reduced but let me share a recent experience with you. One evening before I went to bed, I decided to wash my dirty white singlet and hung it above the shower rail in the bathroom. I usually switch off the light before sleeping but this time I could detect if the light switch was turned on or off because NEPA refused to do the needful. Out of fatigue, I left the bathroom door open and went to bed which is opposite to the door but extreme end of the room.

I don't know how long I have slept, but suddenly felt a cold breeze with eolian sound. I opened my eyes but couldn't move all I could see was a very bright blue cloud with an angel carrying a sliver trumpet. I forced myself to fly up but I couldn't. RAPTURE is here. I was still in fear of making heaven when I finally gained conscious.

Haa. NEPA is at work again. OX standing fan rotating at its highest speed; the white light in the bathroom illuminating the terracotta bathroom blue tiles on the wall and the singlet looks like an angel with the shower hose head looking like trumpet. I realized it wasn't RAPTURE after all just some sleeping paralysis grin [/b]

PoliticsRe: Robert Clarke: Death Sentence Won’t Stop Corruption, It’s In Blood Of Nigerians by Professorcplus(m):
c[b]Cutting the head is not the best cure for headache. Nigeria has some minor problems and most often we usually mistaken then for the major problem(s). In essence if we assume corruption is one of the major problems then we are stuck with the next problem to solve after combating corruption of which we may be clueless about and we keep moving in cycles without any progress.

If you agree with me, CORRUPTION is not the Major problem with Nigeria. if you say POWER ELECTRICITY, is the major or one of the major problems then we will be left with with problems of "How much power to be generated and how to generate it? How much cost will it take to make the plans realistic? We still end up in the conformed of the circles.

Before I give the major problem(s) with Nigeria I will give a short illustration of a student having to take a lecture in a crowded class and was left outside with no chair nor table. He decided to go source for it and after making arrangements, he found out that he couldn't hear what the lecturer says because he was far away from the lecturer. He go get an address system for the lecturer only for the student to realise he didn't have a pen to jot. After seeking for pen and trying to comprehend what the lecturer was saying, he decided to simply ask a close colleague and finally he realises the class wasn't meant for him. May be he doesn't need to go through all this process in his designated class but hear, the student already wasted time, and human resources solving problem that doesn't need attention for.

This is Nigeria situation until we can identify the MAJOR PROBLEM we will only keep moving in cycles. Sometimes the minor problems looks like a major one and the major problem might be there unnoticed. I have given clues for Nigerian to figure out the major problem and tackle it.

I rest my pen.
