The call to missions is one that is deeply rooted in Scripture. From the beginning of time, God has been a sending God, sending his prophets, apostles, and ultimately, His own Son, to bring redemption to the world. As Christians, we are called to continue this mission, taking the gospel to the ends of the earth, making disciples of all nations. The foundation of missions is rooted in the very…
Introduction Where do we get the power to live the Christian life? There are so many forces always seeking to battle us down to the ground. Where do we find the energy to keep going? Are there any incentives or motivations from the scripture that we can look to be encouraged to keep on following Christ? Some of us because of indwelling sin, because of the trials and tribulations of…
Today we gather joining Christians across the world to commemorate the single most important day in the history of the world. It is the event that marked the end of the greatest enemy to human existence, namely death. It is the day when darkness disappeared giving way to light. Like the first day of creation full of darkness and void, the Lord commanded: let there be light! On this new…
The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 1 John 4:8 In this quest to understand who God is through His attributes, we are now at the attribute that is most tied to God by not only Christians but I would argue mainly by unbelievers. For Christians, it is used mainly to show how God’s choice of us is based on love and thus…
One of the most fought misunderstood attributes of God, Omnipresence often gets a bad rep due to how we as human beings perceive time and matter. We often hear the phrase that God is timeless and is the first cause, being outside of time, and for a lot of us, that does cause a bit of confusion. How does one exist out of time exactly? How is that possible? I…
Churches each and every Lord’s Day have the great and heavy task of preaching and teaching God’s Word to His sheep with the sole purpose of ensuring that the sheep hear the voice of their shepherd, Jesus Christ, as He tells us plainly in John 10. However, most churches fail at this as they are mostly preoccupied with preaching self-seeking and aggrandizing things such as health, wealth, and prosperity or…
Well, that’s one peculiar heading, isn’t it? Questions would be like why would you say that or phrase it the way you have, though all of us deep down know this to be true and not only does our conscience tell us that this is true but also it is something that’s affirmed by God’s Word again and again; Romans 5:8 stands out (we will come back to that). However,…
There was a simple reason behind the start of this series, much less a series about femininity written by a man; to talk about my journey throughout Genesis and to point to a hunger that many might feel Scripture might not provide. For a lot of people going through the journey of the Israel Patriarchy under God, there might be a temptation to feel as though women were never really…
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. Hebrews 11:1-3 This is perhaps the scariest project I have undertaken thus far. Having even a simple…
Almost two years now, this week, when you are reading this hopefully, but if not let’s just say the week between the 7th and 14th of May in 2020; I started my journey to embark on an in-depth reading of, what is popularly known as the double-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12, Revelation 1:16) the Bible. Till 2020 I had never done this because of a myriad of reasons with the main…
