Sin. Who has never fallen into it? Who has never relished it? Every single one of us has loved sin. Many still maintain a love-hate relationship with sin. When we came to Christ, there were some sins that were just so hard to forsake. Some that we had to […]
“For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto […]
“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me” (John 15:4). Last week Thursday, I published a response post (it’s deleted now), following a post by another […]
AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY Ifeanyi nuzzled my neck affectionately, and I could tell that he desired to kiss me again. Even though I had forgiven him, I was not ready for that level of intimacy. I was still in sorrow, still hurting, as the memory of […]
“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 […]
AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY The days that followed were the most miserable of my life. And that is saying something! The news of my husband’s betrayal broke me in so many ways… I felt like I had been hit by a freight train that I hadn’t […]
“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. […]
