Is this joblessness or senselessness?

I suspect it's both.

Eberejesus111:
Very true, I'm not refuting these claims dear brother, but my main issue is judgement done on someone or anyone in social media and every man and sunder follows suit because of the greater good.

And yes, there's man's own punishment for his own sins done by perpetrators in his society. But as Christians I am edifying us, not to follow the crowd. They know not what they do, but we ( being Christians) have the greater wisdom and we do know that God's judgement is greater than man's judgement.

Rape is no different than stealing, or murder or lying according to God's own view but man has accustomed these sins to suit himself, thereby making one sin in his society greater than the other.

An example worth noting is Homosexuality, did you know that in the 19th to 20th century, this was sin as a great sin in the society, that even people who practiced such, were killed instantly. But look at it now, this is now a sin, the world is advocating for as a normal way of life. You get the point, my beloved brother? smiley
Man is not God.

Crime is different from sin. All crimes are mostly sins before God, but not all sins are a crime before man. The fact that God considers all sins equal does not invalidate the severity of certain crimes. If you notice, what is usually considered crime are things that do not involve the consent of all parties involved: rape, theft, murder etc.

My point is your thread is somehow as this 'God's judgment is not man's judgment palaver' is a slippery slope that we shouldn't even embark in the first place. Of course, God's judgment is different from man's and as Christians, we should acknowledge THE TWO because while we are God's children by His grace, we are currently in our earthly bodies, hence, subject to man's judgment as well.

It's like saying a Christian Judge should free a murderer because he has truthfully repented and God has forgiven him. It doesn't make sense.

This is a short-sighted take on the issue at hand. What you keep ignoring is that there is SIN, and there is CRIME. The former is against God (and He has the prerogative to forgive you), and the latter is against man (and you usually suffer the consequences, mostly legal).

What the Pastor is being accused of (rape) is both SIN and CRIME. The fact that it is a crime makes it worthy of investigation and legal consequences if found guilty. It is only naïve to start saying 'let he without sin cast the first stone' in the case of alleged rape.

Fornication is a sin; rape is a sin, alongside a crime.

I know for sure every woman is sure an "Olosho" but you cannot convince me that all men are rapist.
Does that include your mother and sisters (if you have any)?

And I agree with you, not all men are rapists.

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Over 60,000 Candidates Sit For NNPC Test by sholay2011(m): 3:14am On Jun 02, 2019
tactius:
It's funny seeing people saying that 'the jobs have already been allocated' and 'NNPC is giving jobs to Northerners only'.....

The truth is, out of those 60000 , NNPC can only take a tiny fraction. The vast majority of the 60000 are going to be rejected. And many of them in their dissapointment are going to play the blame game because that's the only way to reassure your ego....you did not get the job not because you were not good enough, but because Hausas//rich people/people with conenctions/Muslims/Christians, etc.

The problem is, most Nigerians want a good office job where they can sit down and get salary at the end of the month. And the truth is, we don't have enough office jobs. Yes, our parents got nice office jobs..back in the 1960's and 70's...when we had to replace the white expat staff with Nigerians...but since the 1980's, the number of graduates has exceeded the number of office jobs available.

But the truth is, we could have had a vibrant private sector if we had .....electriicty, etc. But we are a country that doesn't want to pay the cost of power, we prefer price controls over everything, driving out any investors, because we are sooooo poor. Meanwhile, government can only employ a set number of people.

We could create a ton of jobs in the petroleum sector if we removed fuel subsidy, which means we would attract investors, since there are now profits to be made, who will build more refineries and other facilties, stimulating job growth. But no, we want subsidy, because we are too poor to pay for fuel. So, profit making is stifled in the petroleum sector....and investors stay away. Meaning jobs are limited.

I don't know....but if we want jobs galore ....we should start by removing subsides on fuel, and ending price controls on electric power. Sure, prices would jump up, but there would be more jobs, more kids in school , more profitable competition, better economy.
What a lovely post. cool

Romance › Re: Why You Should Never Underrate Someone You Meet For The First Time by sholay2011(m): 9:11pm On Mar 01, 2019
toboy:
Nice! But this poster's ideology is entirely flawed. You don't need to meet a wealthy person before you realise you need not underrate people when you meet them the first time. Your loyalty changed because you realized this person was a dignitary. You shouldn't underrate people nomatter who they are. Judging from the your attitude in your story, if it was someone not so well-off, you would have totally snubbed the person. An ordinary person today can become a doctor, a governor, lawyer, or even stand-by person that can impact your life positively tomorrow. I don't know why some people think only wealthy people if worth their attention. Very stupid and short-sighted!
Best post of this thread.

TayehJiboluwa:
Whether as a student or as a teacher, it is not a good thing to find yourself back in your former secondary school. You felt you are a student in the dream but the deceiver called you a teacher to make you believe things are not as bad as it looks. This is an enemy of progress at work, the power of retardation. This is what you should pray against, anti-progress spirits and the power of regression.
Noted sir. God bless you.
Christianity Etc › Re: Your Dreams Explained by sholay2011(m): 9:43pm On Feb 23, 2019
I just had a dream and I am not sure of the interpretation.

I saw myself in my secondary school (boarding school system) and noticed I lined up to be served food by our mama matron as at then. Then, she shouted on us to queue very well. I turned back dejected in the dream as I felt I shouldn't be among the students (felt I shouldn't be in Secondary school by then even though I couldn't say I was young or my mid 20s age now because everything in the dream was my point of view).

Then, I saw myself in the room still feeling dejected that I shouldn't be in Secondary school. I saw my other "mates" where in a room singing praise and worship or so. I recognized one of them as one of the young guys in my current church (the 3rd son of the woman I mentioned in the previous dream of mine you interpreted). I refused to join them and stayed in the room (hostel) alone.

Then, the house master came in all of a sudden into the room and saw me and said: "Why are you not part of them, teacher?" Then, he asked me to follow him. I first wanted to join the people singing but he kept going up the staircase and since he asked me to follow, I did and we kept going up and up from one floor to another via the staircase and I woke up.

I felt I was a student in the dream which was why I felt dejected but the housemaster called me "teacher". That was what baffled me. It is well.
