The phrase "Oratio, Meditatio, Tentatio" is a Latin maxim that outlines the life of a theologian according to Martin Luther, the seminal figure of the Protestant Reformation. Here's what each term means:
- Oratio (Prayer): This is the starting point of a theologian's life, emphasizing the importance of prayer in seeking God's guidance and understanding.
- Meditatio (Meditation): This involves deep reflection and meditation on the Scriptures, going beyond surface reading to internalize and understand the deeper meanings of the biblical text.
- Tentatio (Testing or Trial): This refers to the trials and challenges that theologians face, which serve to test their faith and deepen their reliance on God and His Word¹.
Luther believed that these three elements were interconnected and cyclical, each one reinforcing and deepening the others, thus shaping the life and work of a theologian. This process is not just academic but deeply personal, involving the heart and soul as much as the mind.

During the operations, Sebi officials seized various records and documents, including 34 mobile phones, six laptops, four desktops, four tablets, two hard drive disks and one pen drive from the custody of these persons. WhatsApp, a rival messaging platform, introduced some measures to counter disinformation when Covid-19 was first sweeping the world. Additionally, investors are often instructed to deposit monies into personal bank accounts of individuals who claim to represent a legitimate entity, and/or into an unrelated corporate account. To lend credence and to lure unsuspecting victims, perpetrators usually claim that their entity and/or the investment schemes are approved by financial authorities. As such, the SC would like to remind investors to always exercise caution when evaluating investment opportunities, especially those promising unrealistically high returns with little or no risk. Investors should also never deposit money into someone’s personal bank account if instructed. "The argument from Telegram is, 'You should trust us because we tell you that we're trustworthy,'" Maréchal said. "It's really in the eye of the beholder whether that's something you want to buy into."
