    Here is the deal, don’t just take matters on the superficial surface, judge words, prophecies with scripture. You know why, Isaiah says“ “The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever

    And you should imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.” 1 Cor 11:1 ave you heard the idiomatic expression “imitation is a disease”? It is one of the fallacies shovelled down our throat. I am sure you have also heard , “Orunmila” only heaven knows those that will be saved. It is another fallacy. Here ...read more

    The devil wants to find out if you have a selling price. He will make some offers that sound too good to believe, and they always are. Hold out against his deceitful offers and God will reward you in the end.

    Get Sold Out, Not just Hold'n Out Luke 12:16-21 Man is made up of body, soul, and spirit. This trinity of mankind will work to be unified. You can't give your soul to God, your spirit to the devil, and your body to the world. Our God is a jealous God, but He is also a gentlemen. He is not a ...read more

     | 2,889 views

    War can be in accord with the will of God. Although particular wars may be controversial, we must start with the premise that war is an option.

    My Undersatnding of the Bible’s Teaching About War (topical) INTRO: 1. The Bible is a book filled with War. 2. Yet anybody who has fought in the trenches will tell you, without hesitation, that War is like Hell of Earth. 3. I think before we begin this brief presentation, we need to remember ...read more

    Is it "WHAT you know or WHO you know"? Or is it that "what you know helps you know He who knows you better than you know yourself". UNDERSTANDING = PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER ABOUT CHRIST.

    Matthew 13:51 - UNDERSTAND?! - Part 19 Why is He asking me this question? Yes, I understand! Well, not everything but I get most of what He is trying to tell me! Actually I miss quite a lot of what He is saying. OK, OK. I admit it. At times I so don't get it. My teacher in primary school slammed ...read more

    The Lord not only gives us four choices of the way to live our lives, but He gives us the answer.

    I want to focus on verse 19, ‘I have set before you life and death…blessing and cursing… We see by this scripture that it’s God’s permissive will that comes into play…He will always give us a choice…but He will never force anything on us…let’s read the rest of that verse again…‘…therefore, choose ...read more

    This parable teaches about our response towards wealth. Wealth, by itself, is not sinful. It is one of the ways God uses to bless us. The Bible says that it is the love of money, and not money, itself which is the root of all kinds of evil.

    The scripture is coming to fulfilment with the signs of end time visible around us. We are in the dispensation where immoral behaviour, evil, wickedness, perversion, debauchery, lies, deception and so on are the order of the day.
