Both Jew (Europeans from Europe who came to be of our Holy One, but are not) and Gentiles (other nations that are not of Israel)—they are not YOU, the Children of Afrika, they are not of the Holy One, the God of Israel!
The Christian Bible says, Roman 3: 9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. 13 Their throat [is] an open sepulcher; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips: 14 Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness: 15 Their feet [are] swift to shed blood: 16 Destruction and misery [are] in their ways: 17 And the way of peace have they not known: 18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. 19 ¶ Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.

DUAL CITIZENSHIP
In Uganda, dual citizenship means the simultaneous possession of two citizenship’s of which one is Uganda. The possession of a third citizenship disqualifies one from holding or being a dual national of Uganda unless the third citizenship is renounced.
Until 2009, dual citizenship was prohibited in Uganda by Article 15 of the Constitution. Article 15 was amended by constitutional amendment No . Pursuant to which the Uganda Citizenship and Immigration Control (Amendments) Act 2009 was enacted providing for dual citizenship in Uganda.
The amendment was passed following the realization that Ugandans in the Diaspora make enormous contribution to the economic and socio-development of Uganda and the Government’s need to:
i. enable Ugandans in the Diaspora maintain linkages with their roots without any legal hindrances
ii. Attract potential investors
iii. Reap advantages that accrue from the grant of dual citizenship.
Conditions for dual citizenship are detailed in the Uganda Citizenship and ImmigrationControl (Amendment) Act 2009. All Ugandans who lost their Ugandan citizenship prior to 2009 by way of obtaining citizenship of another country can now reacquire their former Ugandan citizenship. Ugandans who desire to acquire citizenship of another country can also do so without losing their Ugandan citizenship.
A citizen of Uganda of eighteen years and above who voluntarily acquires citizenship of another country may retain the citizenship of Uganda subject to the Constitution (of Uganda), the Citizenship and Immigration Act, and any law enacted by Parliament.
A person who is not a citizen of Uganda may, on acquiring the citizenship of Uganda, subject to the Constitution, the Citizenship and Immigration Act and any other law enacted by Parliament, retain the citizenship of another country.

You shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and show them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.
When they have a problem, they come to me; and I judge between them, and I do make them know the statutes of Mother, and her laws.
Now listen to me, O’ African nation, I beg you to Meditate upon the statutes and judgments, which I teach you, so you may do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LEADER, Mother of your fathers giveth you.
Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LEADER, in hope that you would do them in the land where ye are, so that you may possess it.
And I’m calling, all of our Afrikan descent, and I’m saying to you, Hear, O Afrika, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them.
Now, these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LEADER Mother Afrika commanded me, to teach you, that ye might do them in the land where ye are. Why? to possess it:
That thou mightiest fear the LEADER your Mother, to keep all her statutes and her commandments, which I command thee, You, and your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.
Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.
Your bible says, God, the Supreme Being came down upon mount Sinai, and spakest with the Afrikan Nation through Moses, from the promised land, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes, and commandments:
And madest known unto them your holy sabbath, and commands them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses your servant:
Moreover, as for me, Mother forbid that I should sin against the LEADER in ceasing to pray (make request) to you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.
Let us pray, “Dear Mother, Supreme being of us all, Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.
And MY ears shall hear a word behind ME, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left, walk ye in it. In the Name of the Mother, the Supreme Being of us all.” Ase…
Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is a good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said We will not walk therein.
Because my people hath forgotten me, they have burned incense to vanity, (excessive pride in or admiration of one’s own appearance or achievements).
“it flattered his vanity to think I was in love with him”
and they have caused them to stumble in their ways from the ancient paths, to walk in paths, in a way not cast up;
Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask your father, and he will show thee; your elders and they will tell thee.
That the LEADER your Mother may show us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do.
And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LEADER, and to the house of the Mother of BLACK NATION; and she will teach us of her ways, and we will walk in her paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion (THE BLACK NATION) and the word of the LEADER from MOUTH OF THE BLACK NATION.
Furthermore, then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Mother of Afrika, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please Mother, so ye would abound more and more.
And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Afrika: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Ase.
For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.
Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Mother of Afrika, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;
Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nothing; but brought with labor and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
Not because we have no power, but to make ourselves an example unto you to follow us.
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Mother of Afrika, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LEADER appeared to Abram and said unto him, I am the Almighty Mother; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
Slavery in Africa originated as the reward of war and punishment for criminals. People were not commonly born into slavery. Unlike in the Americas, Slavery was not automatically passed from parents to children. People enslaved in African societies often gained freedom before the end of their lives. At times they even became equal family members with those who once enslaved them. Read More

Cars are, hands down, the best inventions in modern history; nowadays, it’s hard to imagine a world without vehicles. If you live in the suburbs or rural areas, then you know how important it is to have a fully functioning car. Although our cars make it easy for us to commute to work and go on grocery runs, it is a job in and of itself to keep them maintained. Problems that come with cars are endless, and while many are something only professionals can deal with, there are many others that anyone can handle. We’re here to help you with a few of them to make driving simpler. The hacks, tips, and tricks on this list are easy for anyone to do. Have you tried any of these yourself? If so, let us know which is your favorite!
1. Homemade Car Freshener
Car fresheners are an essential accessory one should have in their car. It gives the vehicle a cool vibe and lifts the mood of the driver. That’s why the first hack on the list is the homemade DIY car freshener.
Image courtesy of familyhandyman.com
You can make it by using a container with a lid and some scented candles. Take the container and put some holes in its lid, now put the scented wax candles in the jar and close it. Put it in the cup holder, and when your car gets warm, the candles will melt to give you a soothing fresh smell.
2. Keyring Hack
Keyrings are something we use daily, to carry our keys in an easy and stylish way. But the problem is changing the keys in it is a painful process that one has to go through every time they want to make alterations.
Image courtesy of hackable.com
But we are here to make the process easy and pain-free with our easy keyring hack. You can do this by using a staple pin remover; you can use the present on the back of every stapler or the specific one, like shown in the picture above.
3. Ice Melter
You got up late, now you only have 30 minutes to get up and drive to work, but as soon you come out, you find that your windshield is covered by snowfall that happened last night, and here you are late for the job again!
image courtesy of sixcleversisters.com
But we will not let this happen because, with this hack, you can melt the ice in under five minutes. Just mix vinegar and water in a spray bottle and spray some on your windshield. The ice will melt away, and after a wipe, you’re good to go.
4. Easy Car Hooks
Between umbrellas, purses, reusable bags, and a garbage bag, it’s easy for our cars to get cluttered. Especially when it comes time to pack things away like groceries, we want to keep the seats, or even floor, clear. Why not make room for the essentials with this easy organizing hack.
image courtesy of zooohome.tk
That’s where the carabineers or “car hooks” come into play. These are simple hooks that can be attached to your car’s front seats, and in a snap, you have extra space to hang whatever you want in your vehicle. It’s a great way to stay organized, too!
5. Seat Gaps Sealer
There are just too many examples to prove that car seat gaps are one of the worst places to lose your things in, not the least of which is because they are very tight and hard to reach. That’s why sealing them is very important.
image courtesy of Alpacalypse28/ Reddit
But don’t worry because you don’t need any fancy product to do this because pool noodles would do the trick pretty well. Just grab a pair and stick it in your seat gaps, and voila, you are saved from a headache.
6. Winter Driving Hack
One of the worst things about snow is black ice, which makes it impossible to drive on the roads. To save yourself from this situation, you can use weights like salt bags in your trunk to increase the weight on your rear tires.
image courtesy of thefamilyhandyman.com
This will increase the friction of your tires with the road, and hence it would be easy for you to maneuver in snow. But this hack will work best for the vehicles which are rear-wheel drive, so FWD car owners, you still have to suffer! (Just kidding)
7. Clean Wipers
Everyone would agree that the most crucial thing when driving on the road is visibility. Even a full tank will take you nowhere if you can’t see the road properly. To tackle this, you should make it a habit of cleaning your wipers regularly.
image courtesy of pakwheels.com
Wipers are in direct contact with your windshield and hence it becomes important to clean them because the dust present in them will scratch the windshield, which is a costly repair in your car. Glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth are all you need to keep your windshield wipers good as new.
8. Car Paper Towel
Paper towels are essential to keep on hand in one’s car. Spills and dust are two major reasons why your car can get dirty, and having paper towels in easy access can help you clean up those problems the moment they occur.
image courtesy of familyhandyman.com
But throwing a roll of paper towels in your trunk would not be a good decision as they themselves will become dirty rolling around on the floor. What you can do is take a rope and stick it in the trunk of your car like shown in the picture and get the paper towel from there when needed.
9. Keep Your cup holders clean
Cup holders are one of the most common places where you can find all kinds of small crumbs and pieces of food items, and dust. To help you in this, we’re here to give you an easy and quick way to solve this nerve-wracking problem.
image courtesy of onegoodthingbyjillee.com
All you have to do is take a couple of cupcake holders and throw them in the cupholder space of your car. They’ll collect all the dust and food pieces in them, and you can simply replace them instead of vacuuming the whole area each time.
10. Easy Sticker Peel off Trick
We all agree that nobody likes unwanted stickers on their car, especially if it’s left by the previous car owner. But when you go to peel them off, their glue just makes it impossible to do so in one piece. And then the never-ending process of hurting your fingernails begins.
image courtesy of Evan Sears/ Cars.com
But there’s an easier way to peel off stickers without destroying your nails. Just take your hairdryer and apply some heat to the decal. After some time, peel the sticker, and you will see how easily it comes off of your car.
11. Slimy Cleaning
If you use social media, you must be aware of those satisfying videos where people use slime in different ways. Well, one guy on Tiktok used it for cleaning his car and millions of people liked the hack, including us!
image courtesy of Lazada.com.ph
Just take the slime and run it through your car’s interior, and in no time, you will find your car as clean as new. It’s better than a microfiber cloth because it can easily reach places the cloth would struggle, like the AC vents.
12. Colgate to the Rescue
The headlights are an integral part of any vehicle, and they are the most important in night driving because these are what will give you the vision to drive. But foggy headlights are something nobody likes and can be dangerous on dark evenings.
image courtesy of sunlitspaces.com
To fix it, you don’t need to get your headlights replaced because the solution to this is lying in your bathroom. Take your toothpaste, pour some on the headlight and rub it with a toothbrush; doing this, you will get headlights clean as new.
13. Speeding is a NO!
If you want to reach your destination fast, speeding on the road is NOT the quickest way to get there. You would think we’re out of our minds but wait till we explain it to you. When you speed, you wear out your breaks quicker every time you stop.
Image courtesy of Vinnikava Viktoryia/Shutterstock
Speed limits are there for a reason. Not only do they keep you safe among all the other vehicles and keep you in check when there are pedestrians, but slower speeds in areas with a lot of stoplights also help your vehicle. Remember this the next time you feel the need to speed.
14. Olive Oil Dashboard Cleaner
Olive oil is a great alternative to regular oils because of its nutrition and health benefits. But why is it included in this list of car hacks? Well, the oil which you use to cook meals is a secret dashboard cleaner.
image courtesy of chasingabetterlife.com
Just take a few drops of olive oil through a coffee filter and pour it on the dashboard of your car. Give it a good wipe and wait for a few minutes to let it soak; at the end, you’ll get a dashboard looking as good as new.
15. Easy Utility Space
If you’re reading this list, you’re probably a car owner, and so you know how difficult it is to accommodate stuff in your car when you don’t want to put them in the trunk. But we are here to rescue you from this issue.
image courtesy of hackable.com
Shoe organizers are a great product to hold shoes at your home, but in the car, it is the perfect place to keep all your important stuff. You can fix them on the back of your front seats, and in no time, you’ll have more space than you’ll ever need.
16. Even more space
If you’ve filled up your shoe organizers but still need more space, there is another hack waiting for you. The ceiling of your car is a hidden spot most wouldn’t think about using for storage. We certainly didn’t until we saw this hack.
image courtesy of .ebay.fr/sch/i.html
Create a DIY ceiling storage area from simple materials like a mesh net and bungee cords. Just take four bungee cords and tie a net in between them, then fix them with all four grab handles of your car to get a space to keep your “extra stuff.”
17. Get More Gas
What’s the one thing that all cars need to run? Gas, of course. Organized cars and clean windshields are useless without a full tank of gas. But did you know that there’s a hack to use at the gas station?
image courtesy of instagram.com/lareina.mimi_
When you rush your gas station visit, your car gets a greater amount of air with gas, which firstly gets you less value for the money you paid, and secondly, it makes the air enter into the fuel tank. So be relaxed the next time you fill up to get gas to get your money’s worth.
18. Hand Sanitizer
While some people love winter, others are not fans of the cold and what consequences the weather brings. Snowfall and freezing winter days can add layers of ice to your car, making it harder to do simple things, such as unlocking it.
image courtesy of onegoodthingbyjillee.com
If snowfall has been successful in jamming your keyhole, then your savior is probably lying right inside your pocket. Pour hand sanitizer in the jammed keyhole to make the ice melt away, making it possible to unlock the car…where you can turn up the heat to thaw your cold hands.
19. Pool Noodle to the Rescue
When you buy a car for yourself, you’re not only buying the vehicle but a big responsibility of maintenance. One of the factors of maintaining your car is keeping it safe from scratches and dents. While they might seem small, they are a costly fix.
image courtesy of foodfashionhome.com
These can happen easily if your garage is just too small for your car, as when you open the doors, they’ll rub against the walls, scratching up your new vehicle. To save yourself from this, just attach pool noodles on either side of the walls, and you will get rid of this problem.
20. Never Get Confused Again
If you’re driving a new car, finding the position of the gas tank can be difficult, and pulling up on the wrong side in the gas station is another kind of frustration. To save you from these situations, car manufacturers have clearly marked the location of the tank on the fuel gauge itself.
image courtesy of instagram.com/backonmylizzie
If you look closely in the picture, you’ll see a gas pump icon that will have its fuel arrow on one of the two sides. This has been added to let you know where to park your car according to the gas tank location.
21. Never get slammed again
If you’re a new driver or are staying in a new place, parking in the garage can be a real problem for you. That’s because the garages are usually a tight space which can make it easy to hit nearby things.
image courtesy of autoevolution.com
But to save yourself from this situation, you can hang a tennis ball at the point which you think is a safe distance from the wall ahead. Then all you need to do is drive up to the tennis ball, and you’ll never scratch your bumper again.
22. East is a Beast
Most of the working professionals in the US and Canada rush to their workplaces in the morning, but in the winters, the ice just won’t let you go anywhere. So would you just wait till the ice melt and be late to work?
image courtesy of cheapcarscanda.com
Rather than spending your energy scraping off ice and risking damaging your car, simply park your car facing east. The morning sun will do the job of melting and cracking ice for you, saving you time and effort before starting your workday.
23. Neat cooling trick
In summers, the only savior from the weather is our car and its AC. But things go wrong when your AC dies on you, leaving you with the hot summer air in the car’s cabin. Now, if you want to turn down the heat then DON’T roll all windows down.
image courtesy of Viktoriia Hnatiuk/Shutterstock
Instead of this, a better way of cooling the cabin is by rolling down only the front two windows. By doing this, the airflow will be much better, and the hot air will come out of your car easily, leaving space for the cold air to come in.
24. Wiper and Socks?
Wipers are essential to safe driving in bad weather like snow and rain. But things can go south if they are filled with dust because that will result in scratches on your windshield, which can lead to a costly replacement.
image courtesy of Allstate/ YouTube
To prevent damaging your windshield, you should always give your wipers a good wipe before driving the car to ensure the best vision at all times. You can also cover them with socks so that snow and dust won’t settle on them.
25. Extra Cup Holder
In this list of car hacks, we are trying to utilize every nook and corner of your car. Cup holders are a classic feature of cars that are handy for storing everything from drinks to spare change, but what if you need another cup holder?
image courtesy of autoadvance.uk.co
To do this trick, you just need your shoes and some tissues. Get a shoe and fix it between your front seats; if you feel that your footwear is loose, just add some tissues on both sides, and you will get a not-so-good-looking but functional cup holder.
26. Get that fog out
Rice and moisture have a very friendly relationship because rice loves to absorb moisture in the surroundings. Remember when our phones would get wet, we would keep them in rice bags to fix them; the same concept is applied here.
image courtesy of superdehumidifier.com
The moisture that gets collected on the car’s windshield is very annoying and dangerous to drive with. When you keep a rice bag at your dash, all the moisture of your car will get absorbed in it in no time.
27. Penny Test
Well, only real car geeks/experts would know the right time at which the tires of the car needs to be changed, but this task is pretty challenging for normal people. Without this know-how, it can cause some real troubles out on the road.
image courtesy of autopair.net
The way to check it is by using a penny sitting in your cup holder. Just take the penny and place it upside down in the tread of your tire. If you can see Lincoln’s forehead then a change is needed, but if you can see only half of it then it’s alright.
28. Car Polish
Getting a scratch on your car is the most unfortunate event in the life of a car lover/owner. But still, the road is filled with idiots, and no matter how safe you drive, you will get scratches on your car.
image courtesy of duaria.com
But if you don’t want to redo your entire car’s paint, then a quick brush of nail polish will do the trick. Just take nail polish that is exactly the same color as your car and apply it on the scratch; it won’t fix it completely, but it will make it less prominent.
29. Trash bin for your car
If you go on long road trips, then you know how dirty your car can get by the end of the journey. To save yourself the hassle of cleaning up at the end of a long journey, use a small trash bin or bag to keep your car clean as you go.
image courtesy of onegoodthingbyjillee.com
All you need to do is take an empty cereal container and fix it at any place you like in the car. After that, just collect all your garbage in the plastic bag in the container and throw it away once it’s full.
30. Keep it Warm
Having a car also means having to go on food runs. But what if you get stuck in traffic? All you can do is sit and wait as your food gets cold. But don’t worry, we’ve got a hack to solve this problem!

The trick is to use the seat warmers of your car to keep the food warm till you reach home. Make yourself and your guests happy with warm food. While they might not know that you were stuck on the way home, you can tease them about it as you serve up the food.
31. Increase your Key Fob range
Finding your car in the parking lot can get pretty tough if you have parked it in a mall on a busy day. And the anxiety increases after each click as your car isn’t responding to your directions. Luckily there is a save to this situation.

The brain has waves flowing in it which we can utilize to increase the range of the key fob. Put your key on your chin and press the button, and you’ll notice that the range is increased. And here we thought that telekinesis was only in the movies!
32. DIY Phone Stand
Elastic bands are such a helpful tool that offices have an endless supply of them just lying around, waiting to save the day. But if you think that they’re only suitable for office use, then you’re wrong. They can also transform into a phone holder in a car.

Take the rubber bands and run them through your mobile and your AC vents and fix your phone in place. We won’t recommend you to use it every time because it takes time to set up, but it can be great for emergencies.
33. Trunk Cleaner
In the list, we have told you many ways to increase the storage space of your car, but when it comes to using the storage space, we tend to ignore the sorting and just throw everything in the spaces at random.

Doing this makes finding a specific thing very difficult because you have to search through the pile of mess you’ve created. Instead of this, you can use laundry baskets which will keep things together while giving you space to store even more things.
34. Use the Plunger
A plunger is a great tool for unclogging toilets, but what else can it do? Well, it can fix the dents car shops ask hundreds of dollars for. Because let’s admit it, nobody likes to pay to repair minor dents in a car, and why would you when you have the solution available at the dollar store.

The dent should be cleaned with hot water first, making it easy for the plunger to pull it out. All that’s left is push and pull. Repeat a few times to get an even surface. Looks like we’ll be adding a plunger to our list of tools to keep in the trunk.
35. DIY Car Freshener
The smell in a car is the thing that sets the vibe of the car for the driver and the passengers. But instead of using an air freshener, try this quick hack and see how easy it is to make your car smell nice.

Just grab a few dryer sheets and keep them underneath your car seat, and you’ll get a fresh, soothing smell that will last on long road trips. You can also keep some in the air vents to have a better flow of the fragrance.
36. Find your car
We saw earlier how to increase the range of your car key fob, but what do you do if it’s a big parking lot that would take hours to comb through? There’s a simple trick to help you remember where you parked your car without needing to do laps around the lot.

The trick is to take a picture of your car and the surroundings where it is parked before heading to your destination. This will make it easier to find your car when you’re done. Just make sure to get a picture of the surroundings, as the cars nearby may have moved by the time you return.
37. Socks Rock
Owning a car is a learning process, and over time you will learn more about your car as well as tricks to easily fix your vehicle in an emergency if needed. Here’s another trick with stocks (well, stockings) save the day!

The fan belt is an essential component in your car, and if it snaps or breaks, you should stop your vehicle immediately and fix it before proceeding. To fix it you can use a spare pair of stockings by wrapping them around the engine pulley.
38. Window Tint Trick
Driving on a sunny day is always fun, but the sunshine itself can be distracting and even dangerous. Visors in the car don’t reach every angle, especially if you’re short, and it’s annoying to constantly shift to keep the sun from your eyes.

Luckily you can use a window tint that you can get easily from the nearest convenience store. The tinted plastic sheets will do the trick perfectly well, and you can apply it at the point where the sun strikes the most. By doing this, the sun will never bother you again.
39. Wireless Garage Opener
Making your life easier as a car owner is our today’s motive, and in addition to it, we are here with the addition of a garage opener in your vehicle. We know you can do this with the remote, but finding it beneath the seats after a long day at work can be a real pain.

Newer vehicles today have built-in garage door openers, but with some professional help, your old car can have this modern upgrade, too. It’ll make your life easier as you’ll never struggle to find the opener again. But this trick is a job for professionals only!
40. Save of the Day
As we are at the end, we want to share a golden tip with you which can save you from the frustration of getting stuck on the road. As every car comes with an electric lock nowadays, the battery can drain out at any time.

Due to this, manufacturers include manual locks on the cars, which can save the day if the battery cell runs out. To find the manual lock, remove the plastic on the door handle, and you will find the lock there, waiting to be opened.
Let me tell you exactly how to spot a godly man vs worldly man. One may think that it would be effortless to tell the difference but, for some reason, for some women, it is not. I also encourage you to check out my blog on how to spot the real Boaz over the counterfeit, by clicking here.
#1 Godly Man vs Worldly Man ~ The primary difference
Sad to say that so many women do not know the difference between a godly man or a worldly man because they are stuck between being godly and worldly. As I said in my blog about being a godly woman. If you want to attract a godly man then you need to be what you attract. Meaning that you cannot walk around letting it all hang out acting too hot to trot, thinking that a godly man is going to be attracted to you, because that is not likely.
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 2 Corinthians 6:14
If you are a godly woman then you want a godly man, ideally, this type of relationship will strengthen the relationship you have with God, but a worldly man will just take you away from God. He is not on the path to God himself so how in the world will he direct you to God?

A Godly Man Vs Worldly man ~ #2 How they view sex
I once had a conversation with someone regarding me being celibate. She thought it was a foolish expectation of me because what man is going to wait until marriage to have sex. Especially since I was a single mom that is practicing celibacy (click here to read my blog). She thought no man is going to give me the time of day. But see that is a worldly type of thinking.
A worldly man type of thinking overvalues sex and feels that he cannot fall in love with a woman without out. A godly man seeks God first and knows that God would not want him to fornicate. And so instead of pressuring the woman to have sex, he is willing to wait to have sex with her because of his desire to please God is more significant than the desire to please himself. I actually have a separate blog of celebrities couples who waited to have sex, which you can read here. So it can be done.
Below are examples of godly men who waited to have sex until after marriage.
#3 Godly Man vs Worldly Man ~ He has a relationship with God
A worldly man may be able to put up a front. Sometimes they mask themselves as godly men because they know that is what you want and so they pretend to be what you want to get you.
BUT the worldly man can only fake the funk for so long. You see a godly man actually has a relationship with God and so you can tell by the way he acts, the way he treats you, and the way he values you.
A worldly man is like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He may try to dress up like a sheep, but he is a wolf. And like any wolf that is dressed like a sheep, if you look at it from afar the worldly man will look like a sheep. But the closer you get to it, you can tell that it is, in fact, a wolf dressed like a sheep.
Matthew 7:15 states “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.”
A prophet, in this case, is the worldly man. He is a wolf that does not want any good for you. He does not want to marry you but only have sex with you, he does not have a relationship with God but just pretends that he does so that he can have sex with you, and when you really start to get up close and personal with him you will see that there is nothing godly about him.
He does not pray, he does not know anything in the Bible, he is a liar, he does drugs, he tries to get you to do drugs, he is a cheater or any of the works of the flesh that you can think about. These are all things that are not of God. So he can say that he is a godly man all he wants to. BUT the proof is in the pudding.
A wolf can only hide for so long, but eventually, their true colors will shine through. On the other hand, a godly man is who he says he is. You do not have to push a godly man toward God because he is already there.
True story (you can see my dating story here). I went out on a date with a guy, he said he was Christian, talked about Joel Osteen, and put up a good front for the first few minutes of a date. The second half of the date consisted of him molesting me and trying to get me to go back to his hot tub in his hotel room. SEE a wolf always reveals himself. Which I also have a video on that you can watch below.
A Godly Man Vs Worldly man ~ #4 A Godly man, should push you toward God
Not only is the godly man already with God but he will also want to drive you toward God. A worldly man will tell you things like
“ I do not believe everything that is in the Bible” or “ You act like you love God more than you love me.”
All of these are indications of a worldly man. A godly man will not only believe in the Bible, but he will also read it and know what is in it. A godly man will also want you to love God more than you love him, in fact, he is going to love God more than he loves you.
#5 Godly Man vs Worldly Man ~ Knows that he wants and will not waste your time
A godly man is not fearful of marriage because he knows, that “He who finds a wife finds a good thing.” (Proverbs 18:22). You will know where you stand with a godly man, and it is not a lot of back and forth, indecisiveness, and a lot of wasting your time.
A worldly man will promise to marry you, and at the same time, he knows that he is straight-up lying to your face. The worldly man will have no intention of marrying you and will waste your time years and years on end if you allow him to. Pretending like he wants to move forward with you when really he is just weighing his options with other women.
A worldly man will say things like “why do we have to be married to have sex?” and try to convince you that your godly ways are outdated to get what he wants out of you.
A worldly man may not want to date you, he just wants you to come into his house and, possibly have sex, have no real meaningful conversation, and try to develop a relationship off of superficial stuff.
A godly man is very intentional about his relationships. If he wants to court you or if he wants to get married then he is willing to say and do just that. He will not play games with your head and your heart, and his intentions for you will be made clear. He also is looking for something deeper and tries to determine if you will make a good help meet for him or not.
This is why I recommend you watch my video below on what to look for in a man looking at how Boaz treated Ruth. He was a Godly man and therefore the Godly man that finds you should have some of the same traits.
A Godly Man Vs Worldly man ~ #6 He Will Respect You as his women
A worldly man will have the mentality that he needs to show his woman off. We are living in a social media-driven world where its okay to be naked. Look at Kim K and Kanye West, he has no issue whatsoever letting all his wife’s charms hang out on Instagram and everywhere else. That is a worldly man’s type of thinking. Instead of respecting his wife, he wants to share his woman’s body with the world so that other men could be envious of him.
This is not something a godly man would do.
“I want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes.” 1 Timothy 2:9
A godly man will understand and respect a woman that is not letting everything that the good Lord gave her hang out. A godly man will also respect a woman that is not out here trying to look overly sexy for attention.
If you are a woman flaunting for the gram half-naked on the internet, spending all her money on Birkin bags and expensive clothes, a godly man will detest that. And he would rather have his woman put some clothes on and not try to draw the attention of other men by the way that she dresses.
#7 Godly Man vs Worldly Man ~ How He Will Love You
A godly man knows the meaning of love. Like Ephesians 5:25 he will love you like Christ loves the church, willing to give himself up for you (also read my blog here). The type of love that a godly man display is patient and kind just like it says in 1 Corinthians 13:4-13.
A worldly man’s love is very shallow and very fickle. As soon as he marries you when he is tired of you or wants to trade you in for a newer model he will. He says that he loves you, but his love is just a superficial type of love. Contingent upon himself and how you make him feel.
As soon as things go south in a relationship, he is ready to break up with you or cheats on you. Getting into a marriage with this man is very dangerous because instead of working through the tough times in marriage as soon as things get tough he is ready to divorce you and move on to the next.
I hope these tips gave you some things to look for when it comes to a godly man vs a worldly man. I think so many times where are surrounded by worldly men that we no longer believe the godly man is out there. But he is, and if you are a godly woman then know that at the right time your godly man will find you. Just remember, never settle for a worldly man because you are desperate because you will only hurt yourself in the long run.
