“For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if though be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision” (Romans 2:25). I’ve moved on to reading the Book of Romans, and this verse really stuck out to me. Here, Paul is speaking to the […]
The first people to be called Christians were first called “disciples” of Jesus Christ (Acts 11:26). A disciple can be best defined as a student/follower of a Teacher/Leader, who studies a discipline (profession) to gain mastery over it and become equipped to pass on the training to others. […]
If God was a comedian, He would be the last man standing! He has such an amazing sense of humour, which is clearly evident in nature. Sometimes, I can’t help laughing at what the Lord has done, or at myself when I wake up to the realisation that […]
People often say Christians shouldn’t threaten unbelievers out of the road to hell…that it is wrong or unethical to preach hell to get them to accept Jesus as their only salvation. It isn’t just the unbelieving who say this. Many Believers think and say this too, with varying degrees of […]
I’ve written a few pieces on Hell recently, as I’ve tried to understand and explain why a loving God would create such a place so contrary to His character. As I’ve written these posts, and gained understanding by God’s Spirit, I have been amused. God has a marvelous […]
Today, I’m musing on love. God’s love more specifically. After a disagreement I had with another believer, on a post I shared about homosexuality and fornication, where he argued that God’s love is conditional…and said we are not called to show unconditional love, the musings began. I have written […]
Love and righteousness are so closely related that some people think that they are one and the same. But one is superior to the other. Do you know which? If you said love, you are so very right! Love begets righteousness, righteousness begets justice and so on… Righteousness […]
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” (Romans 8:14). The Apostle Paul is known for his strong stance on morality for Christians, even as he is known to wrestle against the legalism of the Jews (Gal 3). He […]
Are you my brother or my enemy? These days it is hard to tell! So many profess the same faith, but their actions are as diverse from yours as the many colours of the rainbow. It is hard to know who is really sincere, who’s right and who’s […]
As early as you can, it is good to know yourself and to know the grace of God. I can describe my childhood and youthful years as zealous. I had zeal for a lot of things, but I lacked knowledge of myself or of the grace of God. […]
A while back, I said to myself, “Truly, God is not enough…” What was I doing? I was washing the dishes. A very simple task that was filling me with much joy and satisfaction at the time, and I felt a revelation coming on… But this is something […]
God hates sin! We know this. We know also that whatever is not done of faith is sin (Rom 14:23). That is a lot of things we do and take for granted. As humans, we constantly find ourselves worrying. This is sin. Jesus said clearly “do not worry” […]
Please note that if you have never sinned in your life, then it’s better you don’t read this post. And the same applies for commenting. Thank you! Everyone else should know what I mean when I talk of shame. Although, some might argue, that you can be made […]
“For the Law was given through Moses; Grace and Truth came through Jesus Christ” (John 1:17). What is the Law? The Law is the set of commandments by which we shall live without offense before God. As it was given to the Isrealites, the Law was like a […]
The story of ‘The Prodigal Son‘ is a definite favourite among Christians. We love it! I love it too because it’s the most explicit description of God’s extraordinary grace. And the lesson is enough to cause any that have gone astray to boldly arise and return to the […]
