We often think that we want an open road and the ability to choose any direction for ourselves. But sometimes, what we need is a tunnel that can reduce our choices and send us in a focused direction. - @JamesClear#Qatar#QatarBusiness#QatarSMEs
Sure, Jesus didn’t strut around in a Roman collar or a pointy hat. That’s irrelevant. He wasn’t starting a clergy fashion trend, He was establishing the Church, which includes roles for specific types of service. The Apostles weren't just indistinct believers blending into the crowd—they were set apart with authority (Matthew 16:18-19, John 20:22-23). And yes, we are all part of the "royal priesthood" (1 Peter 2:9), but that doesn't flatten out the hierarchy that Christ clearly established. If "priesthood of all believers" meant no distinction of roles, why did Christ bother giving Peter and the Apostles unique powers? Seems like a curious waste of time.
Now, about clothing: Jesus was a faithful Jew, and He respected the traditions and symbols of authority that came with it (Matthew 23:2-3). Even in the New Testament, we see that the Church retained elements of structure and authority (Hebrews 13:17). Special clothing, over time, became a sign of the sacred office, not some indulgence in vanity. And while clothes don’t define the man, symbols do matter—unless you want to tell a police officer that their badge is an "unhealthy accretion" and they should just wear casual clothes like everyone else.
The Old Covenant’s priestly vestments prefigure the New Covenant’s authority (Exodus 28, Isaiah 61:10). Just because the priesthood widened doesn't mean distinctions vanished. The Church doesn’t diminish the priesthood of all believers with vestments—it highlights Christ’s choice to work through both the priesthood and a priesthood.

One of the best pieces of advice:
If you are trying to talk yourself out of it, you should do it.
If you have to talk yourself into it, you shouldn't do it.
One rule allows you to:
- save time
- do what needs to be done - regardless of how you feel
How to get promoted on the job:
1. Do a good job.
2. Document your impact.
3. Strategically share your results with your bosses and other stakeholders.
Most people do 1
Smart people do 1 & 2.
People who get ahead do all 3.

@Aminrichie You and your wife are one. You don’t love yourself if you don’t love your wife. In talking about external people that you love, you mention your parents and your children. But your wife is part of you and no child of God hates himself.
Value You Deliver > Price You Charge = How To Make Money
If you're not making money, you're violating the formula:
- value is less than price (product problem)
- value is greater than price but you can't articulate it (marketing/sales problem)
Festus @FKeyamo is correct when he calls President @MBuhari 'friend of the poor'. President Buhari loves the poor so much, he DOUBLED their number in just 4 years. Not only does he love the poor, he loves EXTREME POVERTY and made Nigeria its headquarters #BuhariFriendofPoverty
Someone reported me to Twitter for my tweet rejecting @PeteButtigieg's claim that God made him gay and my assertion that gay marriage is DEMONIC. In this day and age, I am grateful Twitter respected my right to free speech. Be gay, but don’t blame it on God. Thank you @Twitter!
