GOD DOESN’T LOVE SINNERS, HE TOLERATES THEM

My friend Rebecca asked me this question: DOES GOD TOLERATE SIN OR HE TOLERATES SINNERS? Response: Praise God and thank you for the question. Am going to assume that you have paraphrased the famous Christian cliché of Love the Sinner and Hate the sin in this question. And if this so, then I would like … Continue reading GOD DOESN’T LOVE SINNERS, HE TOLERATES THEM →

VICTORY: PREPARE FOR CESSATION

And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they ate of the produce of the land; and the people of Israel had manna no more, but ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year (Joshua 5:12) Imagine 40 years of a specific menu. Manna had turned into a staple food to these … Continue reading VICTORY: PREPARE FOR CESSATION →

VICTORY: IT IS QUALITY NOT QUANTITY

And they came out, with all their troops, a great host, in number like the sand that is upon the seashore, with very many horses and chariots. And the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give over all of them, slain, to Israel; you … Continue reading VICTORY: IT IS QUALITY NOT QUANTITY →

Biblical Excellence – Part 2

By Pr. Bonifresh Muhollo. Read part 1 here. Biblical excellence combines both theology and sociology. Before we get into the theological or religious aspect of man, let us dig into man's sociology just a little more. I begin by presenting my thesis statement that: No one lives for himself, we are inextricably connected to each … Continue reading Biblical Excellence – Part 2 →

Biblical Excellence – Part 1

By Pr. Bonifresh Muhollo. I like the Ugandan motto. It's says For God and for My Country. Nothing else comes closer to the true purpose of human life. For where else would a human being find meaning and purpose of life if not in service to both fellow man and God? Even the most arrogant … Continue reading Biblical Excellence – Part 1 →

THE TWO WAYS OF LIFE

If we believe that we were CREATED, the underlying assumption by default becomes that there is a historical relationship between us (created) and our Creator. And this is the sense that the narratives of Genesis 1-3 make. The historical relationship between us and this creator indicates that our relationship was fractured and shattered beyond repair … Continue reading THE TWO WAYS OF LIFE →

JOSHUA and the FIVE Ds OF VICTORY

The book of Joshua that we are reading this month is a book about victory after victory and success after success. This is not to say that we won’t experience some setbacks in the book. That would be misleading and false hopes in this unfortunate world that we live in. However, the book is grounded … Continue reading JOSHUA and the FIVE Ds OF VICTORY →

GOD’S MIGHTY WORKERS DIE BUT NOT HIS WORK

He … Continue reading GOD’S MIGHTY WORKERS DIE BUT NOT HIS WORK →

IS THERE A GOD?

Genesis 1:1 does not even dare ask whether there is God or not, for only a fool imagines there is no God (Psalms 14:1-3; 5:3:1). Genesis 1:1 is interested in telling us that God is the Beginning (place) in which the whole universe is and the whole universe has its origin. God is everything. He … Continue reading IS THERE A GOD? →
