Religion / Re: Give To The Poor And Help The Needy. It May Be Your Only Saving Grace-Photos. by Smart365Life(f): 1:05pm On Oct 28, 2018

Give instance/s of things and chance that can put one in such position
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.

just give me a straight answer to this question. Y did God create or allow some people to b in need if truly he's a just and fair God?
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.

I don't get it. God created man to serve him, and yet he still allowed man to go against him? and that give me that crap that God was allowing man to exercise freewill.
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.

Ain t God supposed to be omnipresence, omniscience, omnipotence ?

Clearly, from your question you lack understanding of the subject matter.

if God so much love the world and us as he claims to do, y did he create d needy? y r some rich and some are poor? will i be right to say some r made poor and in need by God so that the scriptures can b fulfilled?
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.

lebete3000:


Wives wield power only over weak husbands, why isn't Aisha Buhari controlling PMB? Why isn't BRF bring controlled by his wife? It is not woman's responsibility to rein in it, it is d man's job cos he's d leader of the family. Women will always misbehave, it's left to d man to call them to order.

Cos Adam left Eve wandering about the garden, that's how she was beguiled by d devil. Adam knew Eve was in trouble but didn't want her to suffer the consequences alone. Men have always fine foolish things for women.
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?
Politics / Re: Nigerians React As They Recall Problem Between Ambode’s Wife And Sacked Chaplain by Smart365Life(f): 5:07pm On Oct 03, 2018
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.

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?

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.
