peace_olaleru said:
“She’s doing well for herself, we know that. Wetin concern Jesus with a big pot of jollof rice?”
EfunnugaAdeboye reacted:
“The values of the Lord Jesus are clearly spelt out in the scriptures. When it comes to meat or food, this what Paul said: 1 Co 6:13 KJV Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Man shall not live by bread alone..”
NASS_NG said:
“She didn’t demonstrate any value of Christ here, she simply cooked to break record (Take Glory for herself). Will she cook that quantity of rice and throw it away? If she does that, it’ll disqualify her search for glory, hence she must share the food (no other option).”
