1. Say you are born again and employed.You spend half of your time in office preaching sermons and praying instead of working. Fellow staff are complaining of how unproductive you are but you rebuke them calling them madeemoni.
You get fired!rush to the pastor and blame the devil for the misfortune.
You think God will bother? There's a time for everything rem.

2. Refuse to pay rent to your landlord and you get kicked out.You start blaming your relas and look for the source of your prob.The answer here is simple, move to a cheaper house or work harder and pay rent.Don't stress the devil he has too much.

3.You refuse to eat healthy and fall sick as a result.You start blaming the devil for causing the illness,ohh phuuliz get real not spiritual.
I know some need divine intervention but sio ule pizzas daily and start suffering probs in your groin and other areas.

4. You drive carelessly, cause an accident which lands you in jail. Whom do you blame? is that a spiritual problem? get jailed and learn a natural lesson out of a natural mistake,there;s nothing spiritual there.

5.You go round having sex indiscriminately without protection and contract stds or hiv.You later blame the devil for it.You had a choice so why did you choose the wrong one? did the devil posess your pipi?

6. You are unable to pay fees for instance,yet the school demands it from all parents saints and sinners alike.Your kid is sent home and you rush to the pastor instead of rushing to work and earn extra shillings to get that child back to school.You are even willing to pay the pastor the fees bal for prayers,how foolish can one get?

lets be Spiritually natural and naturally spiritual.

a black cat crossing the road just infront of you is just an animal looking for food/going back home. No need of getting superstitious and 'binding' the devil over this.

Would one rather be conned off her soul than her money?

And why do we think that the poor are wrong in believing that they can only make money via miracles and prayers?

I fear that the poor and 'common folk' are between a very tight vice. Maybe most of us are already lost. For example, now even the trusted churches are in a desperate struggle of ideas given the challenges of a delogocentralized world. How does the individual shape his spirituality? Will one cling to the Pope's robes? Or the 'doctrine'?

Many are conning themselves off their lives by blindly clinging to institutions, leave alone their hard earned cash.

The problem is when you are in problem...especially in our poor country...no one ever talks to a counselor....everyone will tell you to see a 'pastor'. That's the catch. If we got to the routine of talking to counselors then we would be better off. The pastors would not take advantage of our situations. We would seek spiritual help and an addition and in a mature way. The pastors know and have researched and so call out based on the typical problems...Marital problems, HIV and other sicknesses, lack of spouses, lack of children in a marriage, jobs..etc

Why shouldn't a counselor con a person?

Besides, what counsel can one give to the poor? 'Get an education'? 'Be frugal'?

Where does counsel come from?
