Soulsworth Index

Soulsworth simply put ,means the worth of a soul.

 How do we get to understand how much value God Almighty attaches to a single soul that has ever come to the world.The value that God attaches to the life of every individual is unfathomable. Humanly speaking, we cannot fully understand how dear we are to God.

This made Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to ask " For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul" Mark 8:36. For what can a man give in return for his soul. Mark 8:37.

Throughout History ,people have been deliberately killed as a result of orchestrated war, assassination, error of judgement etc.

Sometimes when people lose their lives as result of wars, when one looks very deep into the reasons behind the wars ,it is often traced to resource control, ego and sundry issues we may not be able to enumerate all.

Let us assume that a war was started as a result of who controls the entire oilfield of the whole world and eventually one man gains control of the entire world resources and after basking in his victory and he eventually dies trying to protect these oilfields for himself alone and his family and using the money to sponsor terrorism and all manner of evils. Jesus asked a question "what is the profit" of that exercise. Riches without Christ (the fear of God) ends in Hellfire. He has gained the whole world and lost his soul.

What if in the process of gaining control he kills other people, that means he has lost his soul and have caused others to lose theirs . His soul cannot equal the riches of the world comparatively and in addition to this, other peoples souls .The bible ask what can a man give in return for his soul. He will find out eventually that all is vanity.

Now putting the worth of a soul in perspective, we can say it is utter wickedness and lack of spiritual understanding that will make some one take another's life in a bid to protect oilfields or any other riches.
If we cannot give any thing in exchange for our soul ,how do we account to God for our fellow human being's life whose untimely death we have caused.
So ,let us put a number to soulsworth. We assume that the world's population is 7 billion. As God cares and loves the entire world population, so does He have absolute care for a single person.
Sometimes you hear people say only one person was killed, only five persons were killed,this sounds as if these people are worthless.But the scripture says,all the wealth of the world cannot equate to one soul lost

Souls worth index(SWI) is a measure of the number of people that lost their lives during an administration's tenure. Conversely, a measure of the number of people that got lifted out of poverty to attain to their God given potential and lived a fulfilled life and die of natural causes. Therefore,soulsworth index can be negative or positive - SWI -+7 billion.

Soulsworth Index is a 'Smart'( specific, measurable,articulate,reliable, timely) barometer that helps leaders and individuals assess and minimise the impacts of their words,actions and inactions that could lead to untimely deaths.

Soulsworth Index is a numerical quantification of the impacts of our thoughts, our words,actions and inactions that determine whether our brother/sister,kinsmen/kinswomen,country men/ country women and infact humanity die prematurely or live to fulfill their God given potentials and destinies.

Therefore, from presidents of countries to police officers to doctors to administrators,to drivers and infact, to all, we can mirror our actions on this and be very careful on the job.

As far as God(the most beneficent,the most merciful,the most High creator of All life) is concerned the only tolerable number on this index is zero. And acceptable number is +( 1 - 7 ) billion. And the unacceptable number is -(1 - 7) billion- Nuclear Annihilation. Hence,God expects no one to be lost under our lackadaisical and thoughtless and wicked watches except He calls such one.

Therefore, when we are seeking for leadership positions ,are we looking for it with intention to improve the life of all or we want to kill some people to keep others alive?

 In pursuit of our daily duties,how many people do we contribute to uplift spiritually,physically,emotionally and financially. These actions stackup our souls worth values

Hence, God has Zero tolerance for the shedding of blood and wars. Let us put Boko Haram's killings in Nigeria's North East, herdsmen killings at Agatu, and Enugu  in perspective. We can measure the soulsworth index of the current and past government of Nigeria as SWI North East  = - 20,000-1m, SWI Agatu = - 500-1000, SWI Enugu  = - 200-300. The bulk stops at the government table. That is why they will inherit the soulsworth  responsibility because it is the duty of government to protect life and property.

 Though the bible said the death of  God's saint is pleasing in His sight ,but not through orchestrated mayhems because He knows that ,that particular soul will not be able to find his way back to God ,but hellfire that is made for unprepared and unrepentant souls.

It is only God through natural means and at ripe age that has the singular right to take some ones life.
Therefore, when we kill one another we should start to come to terms with the gravity of what we are doing. Do not destroy what you cannot create.
