Never make your Perception God's Standard

 We all know God created Adam and Eve and after they are the Apple which was forbidden they realized they were naked, were ashamed and that's how putting on clothes was invented.

So with this, will l be right to say God's initial plan was for man/woman to walk butt naked? (This is me thinking out loud). 

My lord if l may proceed, let me tell you a story about Peter who lived in a small city in Africa. In his village, they walk around naked. 

Peter was a servant to the King, one day his master traveled and he was in charge because he was most loved by his master.

So one day Peter decided to take a stroll and 4 men ran to him, they needed an answer to a question.

"Is it right for a man to be alone?? And his answer was it is good for a man to have a wife. But they were his followers they wanted to know his personal opinion because he was in his early 40s and unmarried, but he answered though a man should have a wife l choose a different path to be single to serve my master effectively ( they were startled).

9 years later Peter got so sick and died, his advert followers felt he lived his life right and he is the perfect Christian. There was an executive order, every man and woman who are not yet married should remain unmarried and serve the Lord as that is the best practice.

So for centuries that was the law. The young ones were told it was the best practice and will be called sinners and banished if they ever get married, but young Rema didn't like the norm ( don't ask me how Rema was born). He has a vision where he got married and he wanted to live out his vision.

He was banished and he took a damsel he saw in his vision, they traveled far and built a home, Rema was creative, he invented machines and his wife made clothes because sometimes they couldn't sleep at night due to the cold.

When Rema had children who had children who had children. Rema taught them to be creative, how to serve God, and his wife Victoria taught them how to make clothes. Rema called his family Gen X.

The Villagers called Gen X sinners because they got married, wore clothes, and did great things with their hands.

Gen X calls Villagers sick because they walk around naked, and never got married

Now The Villagers grew up to be told never to get married that that's how true Christians should be, walk around naked it's okay (they were not told how the law was enacted, they just knew they can never get married and Gen X grew up to get married (they were never told their history, so his children and great-grandchildren lived without history) be on clothes (but they never knew clothes were invented in other to survive the cold) they saw it as that's the way true Christians should be.

So both generations had no clue. Now that's how Christians have become. We try to impose our beliefs on others and 

 So back to the Adam and Eve story, if Adam and Eve were not ashamed of being naked and if we were not colonized we would have been walking naked (or properly be that family from the Gods must be crazy).

Can we truly know what God wants, it hurts me to my bones when l see Christian pointing fingers at another Christian. As Christians, we are divided (by our outfit, church, believe, etc) and we see other people as not being good Christians (is there a yardstick for being a good Christian)

We dislike and judge people when they don't fit into our good books. Discussions about Christianity always end in a division because everyone wants their perception of Christianity to be the norm.

If as a Christian you're comfortable with putting on coats and big shoes it's fine, but it's wrong when you try to impose such an outfit by saying that's how God wants us to look, and those people who wear otherwise are not true Christians. Why???  

We all have our perception of how Christians should be, act, talk, dress and sometimes they are not God's way. No one has ever sat down with him, so how did you know what he wants for humans🤔?

Peter (the disciple) said he doesn't want to get married but being married was not a sin. (So that means there are lots of things we do that may not seem right to men but are actually not wrong to God). 

What if peter imposed his l won't get married belief on his 500 million followers on IG and they start hating and pointing fingers at those who want to get married and call them false Christians.

We see people doing things for themselves and we ask them "is that your purpose in life, is that why God created you 😡? If you know his /her purpose then tell the person.

How did we end up in a world where we love the people that are like us and hate the people that are not like us and we think there is a place in heaven for us.

So tomorrow l can decide to cut my hair, wear only maxi skirts, no makeup, no phone, no husband and gowns and if I'm asked why l made such a decision l do say well that's how a good Christian should be?? (I will be lying). 

Peter said he doesn't want to get married but being married was not a sin. (So there are lots of things we do that may not seem right to men but are actually not wrong). 

What if what you know about your Religion is a lie??

A Poetic Formal Letter to MEMAC Ogilvy

Listening to Rory Sutherland (vice-chairman of the Ogilvy) sparked an infinite interest in marketing in a young writer/social media marketer who’s fantasizing about both of us getting married and building a home together. I am thrilled to say I want to be a part of you (an unpaid internship) position at MEMAC Ogilvy Dubai , United Arab Emirates.  I am passionate about the new meaning of marketing, making marketing Psychological rather than logical. I would love to channel my skills as a writer and Marketing Intern. I'm not going to presume that you don't give a damn about the other ladies I've been with. So, while in Nigeria, I was in a relationship with a Tech company ( JD Lab ) as a writer and social media marketer. I don't typically do this, however, I became intimate with another lady (TEDxMinna) as a writer and social media Team Leader. I swear it wasn't long. I was in charge of managing the social media profiles and producing material for them. These women an...

My Opinion on Public Wedding Proposals

 Some people got engaged before, during, and after valentine's Day. Some people proposed publicly and others in their houses. We get all emotional when we watch videos where she said yes l will marry you regardless of the location (lekki mall, Container Bistro, Michael Garden, etc)   I know you've watched that video where a girl was overexcited and she started screaming and couldn't control her joy. (It's funny to some people, it's spiritual to some but nobody insulted the guy for proposing in public). But when we watch a video where the reply is "embarrassing" especially if the proposal is public we blame the men, insult them, and ask questions like What happen to proposing at home? You should know what your girl likes, does she like it public or hidden? Etc No one asked these questions when the reply was positive WHY??? This is my opinion: women are to be blamed for being in a relationship with someone they can't get married to. Even if a girl wants ...

(His laugher interrupted)) Him: You mean God or a broke guy right? ( he continued laughing), I stared at him like an African mom ready to spank her child, but he didn’t understand the look else he would have never said what he said next.  I'm sorry to hurt you, but you should be old enough to know no guy is faithful to one lady. And never lie to you, that’s God stuff, make you coffee twice every day that's a jobless man’s job. I'm a guy, l know best and l speak for all men. It's our nature to cheat. And one more thing (l cut in), l hate when I'm interrupted by men who talks without control. Yeah, I hate women that talk a lot too…  At this point, I knew I'm never gonna do this again like he...
