SUFFER NOT A WITCH TO LIVE

I once read that George Washington lost most of, if not all of his tooth because then, dentist got not cure for his reoccurring tooth aches, they just remove any aching tooth. In the Old Testament, the Jews had no powers over the devil, witchcraft etc. so they just kill anyone possessed of the devil or that had familiar spirit. Hence the bible said ‘Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live Ex 22:18’. It was not until when Christ came that demons and satanic activities were mentioned and extensively written about in the bible, that’s why you notice that it’s the gospels that wrote much about the activities of the demons and evil spirits. Medical science has advanced now, the solution for aching tooth isn’t removal again, because we now have cures that take away the pains. Yes, the way of handling witchcraft is not killing them by prayers as we do now (though the bible meant stoning them then not praying against them till they die). But Christ has given us powers over witchcraft,

THE SUNDAY WORSHIP QUESTION3

Is Saturday important to God? Yes, it’s important to God because He rested and hallowed it and commanded that it be kept Holy. Is Saturday the only day of worship? Nope, Christ fellowshipped with His disciples on a Sunday and commanded that nothing He created be called common (unholy) (acts. 10:15) showing it’s not only Saturday that should be kept Holy. Is God against worshipping Him on Sundays or other days? Am yet to get anyone prove so to me, even the Coptic bishop the pledged 1000$ to anyone that can prove the Saturday is not a worship day has not been able to prove to me that other days aren’t worship worthy. Doesn’t worshipping God on Sundays means the worship of the sun god? The bible says Idols is nothing (1cor. 8:4), when I worship on Sunday or any other days, my worship is unto the Lord. Man is in charge of creation and not any inanimate thing like a supposed sun god. In genesis God gave the earth in the hands of man, and till now, we are incharge here and

ASKING FOR HE LIFE OF YOUR ENEMY

God gave Solomon long life, wealth and wisdom because he ... nor hast asked the life of thine enemies... 1 Kings 3:11 Maybe that’s why you have not been experiencing God’s blessings in your life because each time you pray, you only asks that your enemies would die. You pray against those in your villages, offices, homes etc., you ask that your boss dies or lose his job, you pray against people and families and you even insist that all witches to die as if you are not one of them. Solomon asked God for what he wants in life, and never asked that all his enemies die though he was surrounded with many enemy nations. When he did that the bible records that God gave him peace and he never had cause to fight any enemy because none rose against him. The reason your life is filled with enemies is because you see enemies in everything that you do that didn't work out perfectly. Praying always against enemies brings more enemies and hinders the full blessings of God. Ask God for

THE SUNDAY WORSHIP QUESTION2

CHRIST REACTION TO IT “And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath”. Luke 6:5. Christ was accused of not keeping the Sabbath and He paid dearly for it for its one of the reasons the plot for His death was instigated (John 9:16, Mark 3:3-6) because he healed, plugged fruit, doing the very things He does on other days on the Sabbath (if you think Christ did something special on Saturday that He never did on other days, am waiting to hear it). Few people says Christ worshiped on Sabbath, yes He did because He was operating on the old covenant but Glory to God, He also fellow-shipped with the disciples on the first and second time they fellowshipped on a Sunday (See John 20:19, 26). What does it mean to be ‘lord of sabbath’ as Christ said. He said the ‘son of man’ (son of man is us, the created; Son of God is the creator), to be Lord of Sabbath means the determiner of Sabbath (like saying, Sabbath is what day you say it is), God hallowed Saturday and

THE SUNDAY WORSHIP QUESTION

I grew up amidst Adventist members; my uncle and aunty belong to the Adventist family and right now, the Adventist church is using one of our empty buildings for their service. I attend Sabbath classes and heard so much of their teachings and emphasis on Saturday worship, I read articles claiming that Sunday worshipers are sinners and have broken God’s covenant “keeping the Sabbath holy”. I have studied scriptures like these (Ex. 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Ex 31:14-15; Le 19:3,30; 26:2; De 5:12) and I still don’t know why Saturday folks finds it hard to accept those that worships others days. My first reaction to this question is the understanding that most Adventist and Christian sects that believes only Saturdays should be worship days is ‘what should we do on other days if Saturday is the only day that should be kept Holy, unholy? The priest were allowed to work on Sabbath days and Christ worked on Sabbath days, what is th work the bible permits then

IN YOUR YOUTH

A foreigner that came to Nigeria love the plantation of corn, not been informed about the weather condition of Nigeria planted corn in November, the corn died, planted again in December and the corn died, got discouraged, but anyway tried again in January and the corn failed, he gave up but during march, he noticed that a corn seed was growing on its own in his farm and so he immediately tilled and sowed again, this time the corn grew and bear fruits. In Nigeria if you want the natural condition of the weather to grow your corn, you must sow between March and August. When we sow seeds in the wrong time of our lives and for the wrong motives, we won’t get result but when we sow at the right time and for the right motives, we get the right result. Though seeds are powerful but we must acknowledge that seeds bear fruits when sowed during seed times. When it’s the seed time? The youthful age is the seed time of one’s life. La 3:27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in hi
