 Firstly, what is salvation? It has to do with the acceptance of the message, sum and sunstance christianity is about. let us read this; Acts 4:12, Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. John 3:16-17, For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Luke 19:10 ,For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Romans 6:23, For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.In a nutshell the above scriptural verses tells us what we need do and why Christ, our lord and saviour, came to this earth. when we receive this message and accept christ into our life, we are saved and have salvation.[ Revelation 3:20, Behold, I stand at the do...

  Welcome to the month of October. We are here despite it all. What faith can do, no powers of hell can oppose. We did not consult a seer like the biblical Saul. Neither did we seek a fortune teller, but see what faith in God can do! Philippians 1:6  Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform  it  until the day of Jesus Christ: Perfection is being in a state of flawlessness in our day-to-day usage. But the christians, drawing strength always from the word of God, have found this word to be more than a state of perfection; We look with elation and boldness in the word of apostle paul in the above scriptures. Here, Paul uses the word not in relation to the delft hands that fashions weapons or fashion sculptures, but in the doing, guidance and leading of the lord. How we may go through circumstances, situation. When through it all friends and close ones abandon us, where some of us go through a deadly situation with mess...

  Let me say from the onset that while we are still on the subkect of prayers, it should not be use as a weapon to kill our perceived enemeis nor, more importantly, sen as a ‘magic wand’ that gives us all we asked of the father. Now to the reason on why God answers all prayers, [prayers that have met all criteria]   Psalms 14:2-4 says,  The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand,   and   seek God. They are all gone aside, they are   all   together become filthy:   there is   none that doeth good, no, not one. Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people   as   they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.engaging spiritual means to slay others is forbidden by God. In this psalm, they literally takes pleasure in killing others like one would take pleasure ineating food. Many prayers, today, are called serious prayers because they involved killing others...

  For the past few weeks, we have been on the subject of prayers, an important aspect of the believer. God hears all we say, just like man-made bug can transmit conversations in your bedroom, to an eavesdropper, thousands of miles away, just like a mobile phone can send your voice to somebody in another continent. God no doubt, due to omnipotence and omnipresence abilities can hear all. The real question is does he answer all? As bitter as this may seem the answer is No. God may answer some specific prayers to show you he is real and in an attempt to led you to him [Remember God loves all and God is love] but, claiming the prayers for your relative who was sick made him well can be disputed because others who are no christian also get well. Real and prayers that God answers are these: one, you are washed in the blood of the lamb- you are memebr of the community of faith, called royal priesthood, see   1 Peter 2:9,  But ye   are   a chosen generation, a royal pri...

  Revelation 8:4 And the smoke of the incense,  which came  with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand . In continuation on this important topic in Christianity, let us examine through the written word of God the other prayer that God desires to hear from the saints who have access to his throne. There are two salient points that are worth noting as we round up this topic. One, God can not compromise, for if he does, then he is not a holy God. He can not also condone nor entertain sin otherwise, he would be a sinner, too; He would not be holy at that point in time. I found a scene to buttress this. During the agony of our lord Jesus, when he was paying, the ultimate sacrifice requires for man to be admitted to God. Read  Matthew 27:46,  And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Jesus was the epitome of sin at that point...

  When Sukura Owodunni, decided what she needed was deliverance, little did she know it will almost end her life. The21-year-old lady was allegedly and inadvertently, set ablaze by a white garment church pastor, Taiwo Odubiyi, when he was trying to perform deliverance on her at his Cherubim and Seraphim church in Offin in the Sagamu area of Ogun State, Nigeria. The sad incident happened on August 17, 2023, when the victim visited the church for a special prayer at the pastor’s invitation. The pastor directed the victim to buy Amazing Grace perfume, local eggs and a candle for the special prayer. While praying for her, they said the pastor emptied the content of the perfume on the lady’s body and lit the candle. Immediately after the pastor lit the candle, they said Owodunni suddenly up in flames, causing serious burns to her chest, shoulder and legs. They arrested the suspect after the Divisional Police Officer in Adigbe, CSP Abdulfattah Ogunsanya, and his men stormed the premises ...

  There are those who would rather they dictate to the church of God. Pastors must mix all messages from the pulpit to the pew, and beyond via,social media, with hatred for the government,sudden death on thier perceived enemies, [ Holy ghost fire, which empowers the believers for greater work of the ministry, to save the oppress and deliver those in bondage and those under ancestral curses], now a new assignment from these ones; rain consuming fire on enemies, detractors and foes, setting them ablaze,till they confess thier evil deed and die.[though a soul is lost without salvation] But they have failed woefully. for thier stand can not stop those who are indeed called of God. Isaiah 61:1,  The Spirit of the Lord GOD  is  upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to  them that are  bound. This is the spiritu...
