  There are different kinds of gifts. Some in appreciation of you as a person, some in appreciation of your contribution to a goal, others in celebrating your coming of age. yet, there are gifts that have ulterior motives, gifts to make you compromise , gifts to sway you from what they see as a stiff opposition to their way of life. There are those who give you and it becomes a tool to blackmail you for as long as it takes. But this one thing we all must know is that man’s gift is not a perfect gift. There are gifts that are given with a good motive , but as time changes it is use as a yardstick to tell others of how ungrateful one can be. Some are given and you are expected to reciprocate and we see this in the politics being played out in many African countries, the poor folks are given a small bag of rice, and expected to vote for these politicians who afterwards becomes very corrupt and non performing ; it is very convenient for them to weaponize poverty to get their way with t...

  The gospel, without any form of verbosity means the message of how jesus died to save mankind from damnation. john 3:3 is a good example of the gospel. But alas! men in their nature have tainted, this message of salvation. This error began in the 21st century. It was a way to appeal to some segment of the believers who were considered very poor and it was embarrassing to the some section of the church to see that. A passage was quickly sort in the bible to appease this ones and to urge then to develop the faith that will bring to then wealth which God desires for them to have. Another reason for this is for this churches with the message to improve their tithe base in order to meet their project for the year . How so? they say if this one do not give the little they have there is no way they can get increase and it shows they do not have faith in Gods ability to meet them at the point of their need. To buttress and drive their point home a passage was required and a most suitable...

  2 Corinthians 11:4 For if he that cometh preach another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. The Gospel, in a simple terms means ‘ the good news’. But what good news does it tell us? what is the benefit of that good news and how does it concerns those who live in a universal community that numbers in Billions? What make you think that your good news is also a good news to me? We live in a relative world; your pain may not be my pain and indeed, my personality may be benefiting from your pain because i am a sadist who revel in other people’s pain, and wallow in my mire, which is to derive satisfaction from watching others suffer from the pain i have inflicted? The good news as told us in the bible——–  Blessed, Information, Bringing, Life Eternal ,B.I.B.L.E ] has nothing to do with Deliverance from such oppressions in this world, it has nothing ...

  The strength of christianity does not lie in the birth of Jesus[ in a manger ] for many were born in that day, nor does it lie in his death, for being nailed to the cross was not uncommon for the vilest of sinners in those days; but one thing. It separated from others who came before him or after him. His resurrection. The resurrection of jesus was not accidental, but was long predicted by the prophets and mentioned by him too.   John 2:19,  Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. see   John 3:13-14  And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven,   even   the Son of man which is in heaven.   And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:   John 3:15  That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. And indeed death could not hold him captive. Let the world hear that. HAPPY EASTER

  Isaiah 55:8  For my thoughts   are   not your thoughts, neither   are   your ways my ways, saith the LORD. Knowledge shall increase the bible admits, no one can deny the exploits in the filed of science and technology in our time. They have gone in leaps and bounds venturing and doing exploits in areas never imagined. Man has advanced in the information technology and cyber warfare. In quest for immortality man has also made some significant leaps, but these areas are is in longevity and not in immortality. Medical breakthroughs abound everywhere though the price tag is out of the reach of the common man, for the moment. Take for example, ‘the  Brain-computer interfaces [BCI]  neural implants allow paralyzed patients to speak or control prosthetic limbs using only their thoughts by decoding brain signals in real-time’ In other areas, AI has outperformed humans in detecting some ailment via scans. But all these breakthroughs tend to double human ...
