Yesterday, the Lord granted me a deeper understanding into His mind and will. I read and reblogged a post, which talked about how our service to God counts for nothing, and is in fact sinful, without love. It was not as though I didn’t know that before. It […]
“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 […]
Alicia took another look at the printed results in her hands and blinked severally. She gulped through a lump that was forming in her throat. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing. The results actually said “Positive!” Jesus! I am HIV Positive! Jesus! Her thoughts immediately shifted to […]
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 […]
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 […]
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” […]
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 […]
Many of us take for granted the simple message of the gospel that we have received and accepted as the TRUTH. We’ve heard it so many times in Church, read it in so many pamphlets, and maybe even written about it as Facebook messages to our family and friends […]
This is the last episode of the free preview. “Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down […]
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Do you know that? Do you believe that? Like, really, really believe that? Right where you are, right this moment, all […]
“Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow…” (Isaiah 50:11). My stomach was in knots […]
Carrying on from yesterday’s musings on unconditional love, I got a few opinions from other believers. One was very interesting. He also believes that God’s love is unconditional, but that the benefits of the love are received on conditions…sort of like a man who loves a woman and […]
