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 […]
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables” (2 Tim 4:3-4). The Bible talks […]
Eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil has made man so wise! Now we know good and evil, we can judge God. In fact, we are so enlightened now that, we are wiser than God, and beyond judgement ourselves. “How can a God be worthy of […]
I offer no translations, no concessions and no explanations. Read these words from Paul, just as they are. Take them as his understanding if you like, but know that he was appointed by Jesus to teach the Gospel…and his ministry was particularly for the Gentiles. If sexual morality […]
Once in a while, something the opposition says is true, and must be carefully considered… However in a state of war, we may prefer to deny the truth in what they say so that we can point out how they missed the mark overall. But, I don’t think people […]
I read something this morning that I would like to share with you all. I hope you will take the time to read it and be blessed by it. It is about the much misunderstood topic of Biblical authourity by N. T. Wright, from his Laing Lecture in […]
There are many Christians who are unable, or it might be better to say, have not yet been able, to exercise the gift of hearing from God. There’s nothing particularly wrong with them, but what I reckon they have in common is that THEY DON’T BELIEVE that you […]
Atheists pride themselves in admitting that they could be wrong…and they just need enough proof to be convinced. However, is it really inconceivable for Christians to consider that we could be wrong about the existence of God? And if we are wrong on that point, does that take […]
Hi Dear Readers, I hope you enjoyed the three posts I shared with you last week! If you missed them, you can click on the category The Spotlight, to read them all. This week’s posts deal with three errors we are prone to make in our Christian walk, […]
Hey, good afternoon to you! And welcome to another episode of The Spotlight!!! I hope you enjoyed the last piece about why Christians should stop saying ‘God is in Control’. I would have loved to read your thoughts on the matter… In case you missed it, do check […]
This question was asked in response to my post, “God Told Me You Are Not The One“. I responded that it would be a good post to tackle for the Reader Questions series, which is what I am trying to do today. By the way, if you do […]
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 […]
“You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me; and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life…” (John 5:39-40). Jesus made this accusation to the Pharisees, but I believe that it […]
I am still reading Bill Weise’s book on “Hell”, and I’m in Part Two now. I’m in the first chapter, where he tries to give an overview of why God created the world, man and everything. He talked about God creating the tree of knowledge of good and […]
So I’ve moved on to reading Leviticus as part of my daily Bible reading. Today, I read Chapter 7, which concluded God’s instructions to the Israelites via Moses, about how they ought to sacrifice their offerings to Him. In this chapter, God talked about the abomination of unclean things […]
