    “You may decide to call yourself a pastor or an apostle or an evangelist, but in the book of God, which is the only book that matters, He writes that you are a messenger.” It is not what you call yourself that matters; it is what God calls you.

    THE SCALE OF THE ALMIGHTY Dr. D. K. Olukoya It is one thing to call yourself something; it is another thing for God to call you something. One of our elders in the Lord said, “You may decide to call yourself a pastor or an apostle or an evangelist, but in the book of God, which is the only book ...read more

    I would be very foolish and un-biblical to believe that this day will not come. The world does not understand or willing to accept this day.

    JUDGE NOT. Matthew 7:1-12. When Jesus says, “Judge not” (Matthew 7:1), He is not bidding us suspend our faculty of discernment.
