IT IS CHURCH ADMINISTRATION

Image
  1 Corinthians 16:2  Upon the first   day   of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as   God   hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. 2 Kings 5:22  And he said, All  is  well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments. Having branches and young men and inexperience men as pastors in these branches poise a danger to the body of christ. The first verse refers to the church administration in the new testament. This is not a prophecy nor a vision, this is a typical church administration. Every church has one. Anyone who has gone through the four walls of a good bible seminary knows that there is church administration in any church except of course the so called prophetic churches where the so called Daddy does whatever appeals to him at an instant mome...

THE CAIN FACTOR

  Genesis 4:9  And the LORD said unto Cain, Where   is   Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not:   Am   I my brother’s keeper? It behooves us to be curious about the first murderer in creation. For in doing so we look at the mindset of one of our first parents. Right from the time of Sunday school in children’s class we are told that Cain offering was not acceptable because it was too meager and the selfish man Cain would not want to part with the best to God. They leave us with the impression that God being huge needed an enormous sacrifice that will satisfy him, Aunty forgets to tell us that the earth is the lord’s and his fulness. [ Psalms 24:1  The earth  is  the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein]. talk about kids! Abel, funny enough this signifies ‘vanity’, did not show any trace of vanity. His sacrifice, which was made as atonement for sin to the most high God, was accepted for there was blood to...

THE CHRISTIAN AND LAW OF INCREASE

  All business makes profit, but a Christian does not engage in sharp practices, but makes sure his/her business is done according to the word of God. for God has said he delights in our profiting.   Isaiah 48:17  Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I   am   the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way   that   thou shouldest go.  It is what you have in your hands that God uses to teach you to profit . It is the amount of the seed that gives us an insight into the amount of harvest. Jesus revealed to us what is an enter-preneural spirit when he said to peter, ‘lunch out to the deep. Let us read it together:  Luke 5:4-6  Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. And w...

Different kinds of fathers

  Genesis 9:22-26  And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid   it   upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces   were   backward, and they saw not their father’s nakedness. And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. And he said, Cursed   be   Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. And he said, Blessed   be   the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. These are the unforgiven fathers. hard as they come. They do not care about what their action will bring about. They are shortsighted and do not see that their utterances as fathers could affect the lives of their offsprings. All their children can remember of growing up are the bellows, the curses and abuse. Nothing more to remember. Genesis 19:31-36  And...

T.B. JOSHUA HOME CALLING

Image
  FROM MEXICO TO MELINA, FROM CAPE TO CAIRO, THEY CAME TO HIM. 1 Thessalonians 4:16  For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: His ministry was second to none in deliverance in the present dispensation. His ministration was filled with miracle-extraordinary. We have seen presidents in his church services state leaders from far away east have been present. Prophet TB Joshua was the leader and also the founder of The Synagogue, Church of All Nations (SCOAN), a Christian mega-church that runs the Emmanuel TV television station live from Lagos to the global community, he was always referred to as Senior Prophet T. B. Joshua. He reportedly died in Lagos on Saturday evening shortly after concluding a program at his church. According to Wikipedia, Joshua was known for his popularity across Africa and Latin America and his social media presence with 3,500,0...

WHY CHRISTIANS WORSHIP ON SUNDAYS

  2 Timothy 2:23: But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. The question of why we worship on Sundays and not on Saturdays if we are to follow the old testament day. First let me commend those who could find out that Saturdays are the days for worship if they follow the old testament. This we can find out in the ten commandments; Saturday as a day of rest and worship to God. Your quest for answers is well. The apostle paul commended certain Christians living in Beroea,  Acts 17:11-12  These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Therefore, many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few. Sound doctrines and a deep faith come not with shouting and dancing, but a commitment to read, comprehend and above all ask questions without reservations. It is these answered questi...

When leaders lost their cool

  Numbers 12:3  (Now the man Moses   was   very meek, above all the men which   were   upon the face of the earth.) Numbers 20:10  And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? The news was shocking to some, as it was outrageous to others.Ahmed Isa also known as ordinary president, who has gradually and painstakingly impeded himself and organization into the heart of many oppressed people in Nigerian with his radio radio show. The news goes: Ahmed Isah, the host of Brekete Family, a human rights programme, has announced his plan to end his show amid the controversy on assault. The ‘ordinary president’, slapped a defenceless woman after an interview in which the lady confessed to setting his brother’s daughter on fire who allegedly confessed to being a witch. This had sparked a controversy as many expressed shock over the conduct of the human ...
