As a Muslim, do you think the best day to advocate for Shariah law is the same day terrorists demanded for it while holding our children hostage?

Can you not see how that looks? Take a second, pause and see how that looks.

[Mojisola the light ✨ @MojisayoD]

The idea of a Christian supporting a Muslim-Muslim ticket at the federal level will never make sense to me.

And please, don’t come to this post waffling about competence.

I use God take beg Una.

If someone came to me and said they were looking to start traveling for the love of it, these countries would be my top recommendations.

1. Kenya
2. Georgia
3. Albania
4. Lebanon (💔)

Maybe it is because I have a high view of the Church. Do not blame me; this is the body of God on the earth.

Perhaps it is because of the doctrinal state of our ecosystem, which has made material things the essence, representation, and validation of what the Church is.

Maybe that is why we do not know how powerful the witness of the Church can be against the government of a nation.

In the New Testament, wherever the apostles went, their impact was felt.

They once said of them, “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also.”

Why did this happen? They brought a witness that condemned the world and brought every thought into captivity.

In case many do not know, one of the extra-biblical evidences for the historical Jesus is a letter written by a governor to the Emperor of Rome in the 2nd century.

His name was Pliny the Younger.

He wrote that he did not know what to do with Christians because their message was spreading everywhere.

“Many persons of every age, every rank, and also of both sexes are and will be endangered... the contagion of this superstition has spread not only to the cities but also to the villages and farms.”

He also complained that pagan temples were being neglected and sacrificial animals were selling poorly because many people had become Christians or were influenced by the movement.

This was a minority religion.

My point is this: Christianity at scale will morally impact a nation.

And currently, our political situation in the nation today is fundamentally moral.

There is nothing stopping Tinubu from wiping out the terrorists.

But he pardons them instead and gives them money.

I am saying only the witness of the Church can convict such moral depravity.

Why is that too much to ask?

The Church will judge the world. How is no one seeing this?

It is well.

I pray we have a higher view of the Church.

Thank youuuu

I’ve been unable to place my finger on how I feel about most of her books and this captures it. Especially “Half of a yellow sun.”

That book destabilized me for some days.

[Dikadi. @DikaOfoma]

because Adichie avoids sentimentality in her writing, it’s so easy to miss how incredibly sad her books actually are .

[Olúwatósìn Olaseinde @tosinolaseinde]

Can you share one of those moments where you knew, without a doubt, that only God could have made it happen?

[AY🪵 @Agonizo_mai]

I think everyone should be with someone they truly find impressive. To me, one of the greatest forms of romance is that genuine awe.

[Adams Ololade @OloladeStella]

Hi @Prezain_LJ

I want to start by saying that I think you wrote this in good faith, and that is exactly why I want to take my time to respond properly in a well written post.

These are questions that deserve real answers, not dismissals.

But here is the honest truth: you cannot understand what "It is finished" means without first understanding the weight of what it was finishing.

So let me take you back to the beginning.

In the beginning, God created man for one specific purpose.

Not just to exist. But to live in direct, unbroken relationship with Him, bearing His image, ruling the earth as His representative. "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion" (Genesis 1:26).

That was the original design. Man was not just a biological creature. He was a moral and spiritual being, wired for communion with God.

Then something went wrong.

"By one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned" (Romans 5:12).

One act of disobedience did not just affect Adam personally. It corrupted the entire human race at its root.

And I don't mean that in an abstract way.

That corruption shows up every single day. In the anger you feel that you can't control. In the lust that rises without invitation. In the jealousy, the bitterness, the selfishness that lives inside even the kindest person you know.

Paul describes it plainly in Romans 7:18. "For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing."

This is not just behaviour. It is nature.

"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked" (Jeremiah 17:9).

That is the diagnosis. And it matters, because you cannot prescribe the right medicine until you understand what the disease actually is.

Every war you see. Every sickness. Every injustice. Every broken relationship. Every societal collapse. All of it traces back to that one fracture.

Now, God did not leave humanity without help.

He gave Israel the Law through Moses. Commandments, rituals, a whole system designed to govern human behaviour and maintain some order in a fallen world.

But Israel was not the only civilization trying to solve this problem.

The Babylonians had the Code of Hammurabi, one of the oldest written legal codes in history, with punishments so severe they would make your head spin.

The Romans built one of the most sophisticated legal systems the ancient world had ever seen.

The Chinese had Confucian moral philosophy governing entire empires.

Every great civilization looked at the chaos of human nature and tried to build a system to contain it.

And every single one of them failed.

Not because the laws were bad. But because you cannot legislate a new nature into existence.

Paul identifies the core problem in Romans 8:3. "For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh."

The Law was not the solution. It was a mirror.

"For by the law is the knowledge of sin" (Romans 3:20). It showed humanity exactly how broken they were. But knowing you are broken does not fix the brokenness.

Think about it this way. You can give a crippled man the most advanced prosthetics ever built. He can manage. He can function. But the fundamental problem, that his body is broken, has not been solved.

That is what every human system of law, morality, and governance has ever been. Prosthetics.

And Hebrews 10:4 makes it even more explicit. "For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins."

The animal sacrifices Israel offered year after year were not the real solution. They were placeholders. Appointments pointing forward to something that could actually fix the root problem permanently.

No religion dares make this claim, that God is our Friend. Most hold God at a safe distance, someone to please by all means possible.

But the Christians say No, God has been with us, he has shared our spaces and our grief, and he calls us friends.

Such an earth shattering idea.

[Shane Pruitt @shane_pruitt78]

Jesus didn’t die boldly and publicly for us to follow Him secretly and cowardly.

[Azazel @AzarilMalak]

This really only works if neither are truly practicing

[Sam Otigba @SamuelOtigba]

Men, tell us your unhinged money-making hacks. What did you do to 10x your income? Don't gatekeep 🙏🏿

[Chukwuedozie Nwa Charlie @TheCharlesIsidi]

Nothing else in this world has done more for how I see myself than the gospel of Jesus Christ.

That God takes to a cross completely naked and beaten and killed, and resurrects all for me, all for you.

This should put a bop in your step my guy. Let me talk about this in detail

[Chinàzaēkpērē Chukwu @ChuGailx]

No catholic should be doing leg day at the gym this period.

Stations of the cross and lunges. No difference.

🚀 Today, I'm officially launching @ArushaWealth , a registered and regulated financial planning & wealth management firm for immigrants and children of immigrants building their American Dream.

Over the past 18 months, I've directly helped 300+ people get their green cards & indirectly helped so many more. But there’s one reality we keep seeing: that's just the beginning of the journey, not the end.

We arrive with ambition & do everything right: we get into top schools, earn valuable degrees in the right fields, build strong careers & earn well, only to realize over time that high income doesn’t always translate into high net worth or lasting wealth.

You're earning well but you see how much goes to taxes
You're not sure how much should go to paying off your past student loans and how much to investing for your future
You have family obligations back home that you can't ignore & you're not sure how to manage this without sacrificing your own goals

Without a clear long term plan, you wake up down the line & realise you are stuck - permanently dependent on your paycheck to maintain the lifestyle you have.

This is not the American Dream we came here for.

We have officially launched @ArushaWealth a financial planning & wealth management firm for immigrants and children of immigrants in the United States. Built on my experience as a wealth advisor at Goldman Sachs Family Office, along with my training as a Certified Financial Planner® and my MBA from Columbia University, Arusha helps individuals & families put structure around what comes next through comprehensive financial planning, tax planning, investment management, and legacy and estate planning.

I've worked with some of the wealthiest American families and seen exactly how wealth is built, protected & passed down in the U.S. With Arusha, our focus is on bringing to immigrant families that same level of planning and the opportunity to build lasting prosperity.

Our clients so far include startup founders who have raised over $10M, and professionals across tech, finance, and law, including Microsoft, Amazon, the World Bank, private equity, and Big Law.
