This episode is part of my podcast series DEAR ATHEIST… If you prefer, LISTEN NOW. ***** Every time, without fail, that I watch a telling of the Transatlantic Slade Trade of African people, I struggle with the faith I profess in Christianity. Yesterday was one such day. I […]
On this day, 10th of February, in 2002, I surrendered my life to following Jesus Christ! It was not the first time I had done so. I had stood up before God in many congregations before that to give my life to Christ. But this time was different. […]
I’m of the opinion that it is easier to say sorry when you don’t mean it. For some people, sorry just falls off their lips just as easily as they lie. But as someone who strives to be truthful all the time, I find it hard to apologise […]
Lately, the more I think about hell, the more I question the idea of God. It’s a strange thing for a Christian to say, especially one who once held strongly and taught much about hell previously. But the truth is, I haven’t felt much like a Christian, in […]
Oh, Lord, I know You understand us Because of Jesus Christ… I know You care and feel compassion for us… I know that, through Jesus Christ, You felt and feel our pain… You feel the injustice. The fear. The sorrow. The pain of being forsaken, Left to the […]
Today, Lord, I just want to declare That You are indeed enough for me. In fact, Lord, You are too much! In You, I have all that I’ll ever need, Much more than I should ever want… Lord, I have tasted and I have seen That You are […]
Lest any think the message of grace Is a license to live at one’s will, Or an occasion to act selfishly, Hear ye! You were bought at a price. Though you were once a slave to sin, You are now the captive of Christ! As a new creature, […]
Because You stayed on that Cross, I am saved. Because You stayed, fighting til Your last, I know I can win… You didn’t have to do it, Lord. You said, “no one takes My life… “I lay it down willingly…” And You taught me to lay mine down […]
You see that little boy in the picture, jumping happily without a care… He needs Jesus! For many believers, this is a given, but the realisation that my son needs Jesus to be good, and not just me to raise him right, came as a little shock to […]
“Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye […]
A couple of weeks ago, I was asked this question by a reader. I don’t know what it was relating to, because that was all they wrote in their email. And it seems simple enough to answer “Yes” or “No”. But I think it’s a little more tricky, […]
Can you believe in one and believe in the other too? I believe so. They actually both work together for the glory of God. One is God’s calling and empowerment, and the other is our choice and will-power. The Bible says: “And we know that all things work […]
“And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Be hold we die, we perish, we all perish. Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the Lord shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?” (Num 17:12-13). I’ve been reading the Book of Numbers in the […]
When you hear that the end of the world is nigh…and God’s judgement is coming upon the world, what is the primary emotion you feel? I suspect it is FEAR! But fear is what unbelievers should feel, people who do not know God or those who do, but […]
Christian evangelism has entered new waters in this our modern world. In some ways, it is easier to share your beliefs…with the advancement of technology, particularly the Internet and social media. And in many ways, it is harder to be received, not least because those who do not […]
