Gender: Creation Over Confusion

Contributed by Luke Vasicek on Aug 24, 2025

The Cost Of Civil War Series

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 30, 2025

When Doubt Is Called Proof

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025

True prophets invite testing; a claim that denial proves authenticity is a closed loop and never the biblical measure of God’s voice.

Opening – The Self-Proving Prophet Let me start with a single, startling sentence: > “One proof I have that I am a prophet of God is if you deny that it is so.” Let it sink in. It sounds clever at first, like a riddle that wins no matter how you answer. If you agree, the claim is ...read more

Handling Offences And Conflicts In Ministry

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 8, 2025
