Glorifying the Lord is not limited to worshipping in church. In fact, praise ought to permeate the believer’s life. One obvious way that we praise the Lord is with our voice.

THE PERILS OF BEING RIGHT. By Dr William G Johnson.
HERE IS HOW A SENIOR SDA LEADER EULOGISED DESMOND FORD. I need to make one thing clear: in my judgment, the blame doesn’t lie wholly with church leaders. Reconciliation requires action from both sides, from both parties. Des was so sure that he was right that he made reconciliation very difficult. Margit Heppenstall, wife of … Continue reading THE PERILS OF BEING RIGHT. By Dr William G Johnson.
THE IMPROPER AND PAGAN UNDERSTANDING/USE OF THE LAW
Paul doesn’t specifically address this improper use here, but this was the entire thrust of his life before he was converted. As he explains in Philippians 3:4-6 and also Galatians 1:13-14, he was zealous for the Law, thinking that keeping the Law and the Jewish traditions was the way to salvation. But in actuality, he … Continue reading THE IMPROPER AND PAGAN UNDERSTANDING/USE OF THE LAW
WHAT IS THE SEAL OF GOD’S PEOPLE?
There is a religion that insists that the Sabbath-day is the Seal of God's people and God will depend on this to distinguish those who truly worship him and those who don't. They go ahead to emphasise that the great controversy between evil and good will manifest itself in those who observe the Seventh-day (Saturday) … Continue reading WHAT IS THE SEAL OF GOD’S PEOPLE?
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST?

I AM A MATAYO KYALIGONZA, HOW ABOUT YOU?: SLAPPING TRUTH IN THE FACE.
Recently in Seeta, a high ranking officer and Uganda's ambasador to Burundi, Major General Matayo Kyaligonza, together with his escorts, harassed a traffic officer on duty.

THE CONCEPT OF OWNERSHIP
The book of Psalms teaches us that God is the actual and factual owner of the universe for two fundamental reasons. 1. HE CREATED: According to Genesis 1:1, Psalm 8,19, 104,139, God owns this universe not on the merit of a manufacturer but as a CREATOR. Allow me to point out the distinction here. God … Continue reading THE CONCEPT OF OWNERSHIP
THE LETHAL MISSION OF THE HEBREWS EPISTLE
The epistle of Hebrews is a very dangerous epistle to the established cult of Judaism and whoever wrote it was aware of that and could not risk his identity unless he was suicidal. The epistle exposes Judaism as the official religion of the only true God (Yahweh) and dismisses all its sacred rites, offices and … Continue reading THE LETHAL MISSION OF THE HEBREWS EPISTLE
LESSONS FROM PSALMS 51 (Part 2)
