By what Authority?

I will Like to dedicate this Article to all Children of God who understand the Authority in the name of Jesus, and to all those out there who do not believe in Jesus and his power to save heal and deliver. The Point: Luke 20:1-8 And it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon him with the elders, And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? Or who is he that gave thee this authority? And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me: The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, if we shall say, from heaven; he will say, why then believed ye him not? But and if we say, of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet. And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was. And Jesus said unto them, neither tell I you by what au...

What is the current price of Christianity!!!

It may sound strange to some of you, but in this world where we live where buying and selling is carried out every single day, we are faced with a complex but unavoidable question, what is the current price of Christianity? How much did it cost God, Christ, His Disciples and me? What price are we paying to preach the word of Christ today? Let’s pause here a bit shall we? I was trying to make an online payment yesterday night and this morning, one thing kept repeating itself in my transaction: ‘current price’. Before the transaction, my shopping cart was reading 0.00 as my initial price and as I kept adding new items in the cart it kept increasing by the price of each item. How did we get here? [Deuteronomy 32:15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation .] Can you see that? We grew fat with blessings and abundance; we have technolo...

The Question Mark (?)

Every day, troubles and situations beset us, trials and temptations hunt us, our known world is filled with newer challenges than our fore fathers had ever imagined. Our life is in danger. When we turn left we see people, events and situations that never should have been, same on the right and round about us we see negativity and we are drowning in a swamp with the whole world laughing at us. Who are this Christians anyway? Where did they come from? How do they breed? They ask these questions like we are some strange being from another planet- funny enough to their uttermost disbelieve: God is Our Father, Our Home is in Heaven our King is Christ! Our message is Christ and HIM crucified! Why will they not just leave us alone? They will ask, the world had always been a better place before they came-sorry miss, wrong bus! We were here before you did. For your information our Father Built this place called earth [Gen 1:1 In the Beginning God created the heavens and the earth ]. So we hav...

Introduction: A Lesson Of Love

What I hear I write, what I write I have learnt, what I have learnt I teach others also. Life has taught me yet another lesson.  A lesson of Love and conflicting personalities.  Today, I have added an atom of learning to the wealth of knowledge I’ve acquired at Agaie. In an organization where conflicting complexities of moral and word wars have a great role to play in its growth, like cancer, propaganda is spread in every quarter. One is forced to abandon the creed of non-violence. In a Love story where vengeance and politics based on religion is the plot, violence, intolerance, and hatred abound. No wonder we are called men; moved emotionally to negotiate even when we are being setup by the ones we love. “God so loved us”…..it has a great lesion. Firstly, He showed his love first; we most times don’t see the importance or significance of a love shown. I could love someone and never tell that someone until I die! God did not consider his LOVE so precious and us so UNWORTH...
