It matters that we continuously emphasise that Jesus Christ of Nazareth was not exclusively God but he was also a complete human being by all the physiological standards of humanity. The heresy reported in the Johanian letters that contended that Jesus was not a human being is refuted by the evidence we see in the … Continue reading THE HUMAN NATURE OF JESUS CHRIST

EVIL SPIRITS FROM ‘GOD’ (Part III): Divine Providence
In the previous two presentations, I laboured to answer the question asked by Sadam on why God would send (if at all he did - my emphasis) an evil spirit to his anointed king. Apart from the controversy in the text of an evil spirit coming from an all-good and loving God, I have extended … Continue reading EVIL SPIRITS FROM ‘GOD’ (Part III): Divine Providence
EVIL SPIRITS FROM ‘GOD’ (Part II): Divine Permissiveness
Let’s now turn to a more complicated answer to this question which was asked by brother Sadam in our Annual Bible Reading forum. We need to come to the truth that the evil and evil spirits in our world are not condoned by God but actually permitted by God. Everything good and bad happens in … Continue reading EVIL SPIRITS FROM ‘GOD’ (Part II): Divine Permissiveness
EVIL SPIRITS FROM ‘GOD’ (Part I): Divine Revelation
We have a social media forum where we are reading the entire Bible and people are allowed to ask from the books we are reading and/or have already covered. We are now dealing with the books of Kings, and one of our members (Sadam) asked this: Question: A blessed morning to you all. 1Samuel 16: … Continue reading EVIL SPIRITS FROM ‘GOD’ (Part I): Divine Revelation
WHAT IS THE BEST BIBLE VERSION?
My niece asked me to buy her a Bible, and because she is still in elementary school, I bought her a nice looking Good News Bible Version. Unfortunately, her mother (wife to my brother) who is also a disciple of a certain city pastor who some time back burnt many Bible versions which addressed Holy … Continue reading WHAT IS THE BEST BIBLE VERSION?
DOING RIGHT vs BEING LIKED
There are people in our families who do right but are not liked. There are good people in our communities but who do not buy it through our hearts. There are those ladies or men who are just perfect but in all that they do but for some reason, we don't feel them and however … Continue reading DOING RIGHT vs BEING LIKED
THE THRONE & THE CONCUBINE: THE DIFFERENCE
While there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner was making himself strong in the house of Saul. Now Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah; and Ishbosheth said to Abner, "Why have you gone into my father's concubine?" Then Abner was very angry … Continue reading THE THRONE & THE CONCUBINE: THE DIFFERENCE
SHIMEI AND DAVID
There are powerful people we hate. We feel like killing them but because they are so powerful we cannot. Lo and behold, an opportunity shows up and they are running for their lives. We thank God for the opportunity and start dealing with these people. And after we are done with them. After some time, … Continue reading SHIMEI AND DAVID
Crucifixion vs Resurrection
I have a question; why do we continue to crucify Jesus? Looking around, all ones sees are projections or rather representations of His suffering, and nothing of his resurrection. I mean we all love happy endings but this one seems to have been utterly neglected. Why do we have to continuously dwell on the sorrow … Continue reading Crucifixion vs Resurrection
BEAUTIFUL BITCH (1peter 3:3-6)
Question : That chapter 3 of 1Peter has been for long based on to tell us Women how to wear, what not to put to our bodies and so much more. But when I try to read closely, I don't seem to find any concept or next to clothes.What exactly is the Author trying to … Continue reading BEAUTIFUL BITCH (1peter 3:3-6)
