The 2020’s decade commenced with a global plague, COVID-19 pandemic! Ideas on what this implies keep flying around from every shade of human logic. Religious, political, economic, scientific… I don’t mean to add to the mucky pool of speculative theories being pushed from various social platforms. Since the outbreak in late December, subsequent superfluity of opinions have neither aided our […]
Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 2 Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. 3 For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. (Col 3:1-3 ~NLT) […]
Construction blueprints often include pictorial renderings of the future building. Sometimes a project owner has miniature model houses created in order to impose a mental imprint. Now no matter how realistic an architects’ prototype, it always points to something else. It represents a pattern for the real edifice. Prototypes are vitally important. They burn images into the minds of project […]
In many a community across nations, certain families stand out for their mastery on specific skills like politics, education, industry, religion, etc. Some names are synonymous with the disciplines they’ve perfected over the ages. The very mention of certain names evokes instant recognition of the social classes to which they belong. It’s their identity. If you are born into one […]
Since I was asked to discuss the subject of transitions, let’s begin by defining the word. For our reference, I recommend Merriam Webster Dictionary. I’ve found it authentic and mainly free of ads and rude popups prevalent with other online dictionaries. Merriam is a derivative of Noah Webster Dictionary. Noah Webster was an American Christian scholar who edited America’s earliest […]
Even with parking brakes engaged, it’s possible to force a vehicle to move. However, wheels, rotors, brake pads, and other components are damaged. Vehicle performance is reduced to a bare minimum and stupendous volume of smog is spewed to the environment. Talk of a tedious and unpleasant ride! But this is also true of human relationships. Insensitivity engages relational brakes, […]
14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. 15 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. 16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. (1 Corinth 4:14-16 ~KJV) Overarching Ministerial Objective… In our […]
When cellphones first hit the common man’s market in the late 90’s and early 20’s, one of their dreadful snags was device lock up. But it happened quite often. Early models had neither vibrate nor silent modes. In hushed environments, you just turned it off or it’d turn you into an embarrassing spectacle. Then came the moment to turn it […]
The question of material wealth has challenged Christian faithful for ages. To date, fierce debates persist on what’s accurate Scriptural guidance in reference to riches. God’s Word is His will. Grasping it should be every believer’s highest priority because it defines the parameters of our day-to-day involvements. If the will of God were unknown, we’d all unwittingly sin against Him. […]
In the years of practicing my Christian faith, I’ve observed an interesting occurrence. Severally, I’ve received knowledge of something without anyone telling me. It’s strange, but when you are the recipient of sudden info straight out of the blues, it could be very spooky. How do you explain sudden knowledge of exact details of a matter about which you were […]
2 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. 3 His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them. 4 And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. 5 Then Peter answered […]
22And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils. 23 And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.25 And if a house be divided against itself, […]
