clemzyzone:I wanted to leave this for another topic. Since you've asked I'll just briefly state these: 1. Environment: This is one reason people are either rich or poor. Someone born in the US will never have the same opportunity as someone born in Somalia. So also, someone who surrounds himself with wise, diligent and faithful people will never have the same opportunity with someone that surrounds himself with lazy, unserious petty thieves. 2. Knowledge: Even if you were born in the US and you surround yourself with wise, diligent and faithful people, if you don't have the right education or skill, or you don't know what to do, you will still be hopeless. 3. Sacrifice: Many of the people blaming God or their parents sleep half of their lives. Some just sit and wait. Ask any rich man and you'll find out how at a point they cut off pleasure, wasteful spending (like buying a PS4 so you won't be bored at home, instead of using same money to diligently acquire a skill), started managing their time better (instead of 'hanging out' idly with friends). When you truly become restless and tired of your situation, you will change your environment, acquire the right knowledge and make appropriate sacrifices. Gen 27:40. |
dejavuh0007:Just show me one person God created rich or poor and I'll help you interview him to know how he was able to come out of his mother's womb with the wealth. |
dejavuh0007:Freewill and disobedience are different things. God gave man freewill (Gen 1:26-28) because He's a just and fair God. Freewill is a good thing. Freewill is also how God tests our faithfulness to Him. He demonstrated that in the beginning when He planted the trees of Life and Death in Eden. Rebellion and disobedience came from Satan after his fall. We know how he made man corrupt by deceiving Adam in Eden. |
ollah2:And your point is...? Clearly, from your question you lack understanding of the subject matter. |
dejavuh0007:Your question is like suggesting that people like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Aliko Dangote were created rich and the destitutes on the streets were created poor. Have you not seen a beggar that owns a mansion, make tens of thousands daily off people? Let me break it down for you. When Computers were created, the idea was to solve complex mathematical calculations and to simplify human tasks. Today, we know that hackers can do terrible things with a PC from a remote location. When God created man, the idea was for man to have Dominion over creation (Gen 1:26-28) and be like God (Psa 82:6). But we know how man lost that. Being rich or being poor didn't come from God. The original plan was for man to be like God here on Earth as God is in Heaven. God wanted an "offspring" He could communicate with that has flesh and blood. When you see rich and poor people, know that time and chance happened to the people in each respective position. There are things that can keep you in one position or make you switch positions. |
Praise the Lord somebody! |
This is just funny.

BabbanBura:Hahaha... have you not heard that words become action when you keep confessing them? |
lebete3000:The bolded is the only statement I find relevant to my earlier statement you quoted. I never pitched women against their husbands. Neither did I try to elevate women above their husbands. You talked about Adam, could you talk about Bill Clinton too, to balance the equation? Because I mentioned both of them. As a man I think you shouldn't feel any discomfort if you wife realized she has the ability to help elevate you in any circumstance. Or would you rather see yourself as a weakling if she did? |
Hmmm Behind every successful man, there's a woman...Ask Bill Clinton. Behind every fallen man, there's a woman...Ask Adam. As women, we should realize the power we wield. We should learn to tame our emotions. As wives, we should learn to direct our actions to elevate our husbands rather than bring them pain. I'm learning everyday. |
MDDarah84:I feel sad reading this. I'm so sorry about your son's predicament. I wish there was something I could do. I hope you guys find a solution for him and I pray he becomes better. |
Great feat. Permit me to say 'The Tigress feasted on Turkey'. How sumptuous! |
Accusations and counter accusations. Plots, tactics and propaganda to outwit one another. Are there laws against electoral malpractices by contesting parties, their representatives or agents? |
That Gift girl is not smart at all, what has she been eating? |
I hope the funds are truly for a free, fair and credible elections, and not to empower a candidate of interest, thereby imposing such on us. |
This man has 2 kids already with his side-chick-turned wife? I don't think he was called. He's just so full of deceit. Even abandoning his 'flock'. May God have mercy on him. |
I hope she gets justice. Lemme keep practicing Tai chi, taekwondo, boxing, judo and karate. They may come in handy one day. ![]() |
While women fight, men are testing their rigging technology, preparatory to next year's general elections. Stella, Linda, KOO, Sophia, Victoria, Dolapo...smh |
Food for thought: Dxxk is not a food for the mouth. |
People do anything for Power, Money, Fame and Respect. |
White teeth make great smiles and boost self confidence. See mine ![]() |
Great topic. Very educative. |
