FAME

Image
Fame is a dicey and dangerous thing with potential for both great good and great evíl. For starters, you don’t seem to have a life of your own—you stay in hiding or activate undercover and disguise. But more importantly, whatever you do is either highly praised or highly criticized—because it is highly publicized. Now, if what you do or say is wrong or right but it is criticized, you can get positive feedback to correct or improve on it—again, whether good or bad. However the danger is that when you say or do something that is wrong and you know it’s wrong, there are people who will still like it because they like you—therein lies the greatest danger of fame. You must be able to have your own internal check system, moral compass or ethical code to guide you on the reality and implications of your external actions and decisions. Moreso, you have to have a growth mindset that ensures you are continuously working on yourself and improving so that you can be yourself and that authentic sel...

ATHEISM

Image
I do not suppose there is an intelligent atheist:  The crude atheist categorically denies and rejects the existence of God because they can’t PROVE it. That is unfounded denial and sheer prejudice. Admitted ignorance would be more noble. An intelligent mind would rather say this:  I do not KNOW if there is God or not… However I’m WILLING to know and ACCEPT the fact of the existence of God IF I find it to be true. But if I can’t find a good reason to accept the idea of the existence of God, then I would be content to admit that I do NOT know if there is God. That’s the logical and rational way to go about it. This is more sensible than to claim there is no God.  So it is better to admit to current ignorance than to presume a pseudo knowledge which is unfounded or based on denial of possibility of the unknown. Keeping an open mind, not letting preconceptions or biases shut one’s mind off to said possibility. A stark atheist’s position thus seems illogical to me. Abientot!

SWIM TRUNKS

Image
Men, listen up! What type of dressing of a lady can make you see or want to consider her as potential life partner? Then what kind of dressing makes you cringe and view a lady as using her body to get attention or to stimulate horny feelings, inviting men to fantasize, frolic or flirt? For example, swimming trunks are used to swim. Such gears are worn in swimming pool areas.  Imagine a lady wearing that to church or an office? Or even to a public market place or a social event? So why do some ladies feel a need to post pictures of themselves in swimming trunks on social media? Why not enjoy them privately—for private viewing? Are the various angles for full-body public viewing? Are they looking for validation and/or customers? Are they being intentional and strategic with it? Are all these some sort of coded thirst traps? Really, no matter how much some ladies try to justify their indecent dressing in public, it speaks volumes about them—whether right or wrong. It may be that they ...

ACCOUNTABILITY

Image
Accountability. It is not at all a bad thing—never was, never will be. Once some people hear that word, they seem to immediately think of someone policing them. Some sly fellows will even gaslight you to feel that you’re doing a wrong thing by asking for baseline accountability—that’s awful and terrible of them. What is accountability? It is basically an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility or to account for one's actions. Simply put, it means willingly accepting responsibility for your actions. It is actually a very good and positive trait. Matter of fact, it also means responsibility. It is the fact or condition of being accountable. What does it mean to be accountable? Now to be accountable means that one is required or expected to justify one’s actions or decisions. It means obligated to explain, justify, and take responsibility for one's actions, and to answer to someone or some people, such as a person with more authority or a group of people who authorize a...

BEING CHRISTIAN

Image
Being a Christian does not mean being the wealthiest or healthiest or most popular. Read your Bible to see if this is the case. You are not Moses or Daniel or Esther. Although we may learn from them. Well, maybe you’re Moses—lucky you! Hope you can go through what he did. That wilderness experience, yeah? Also telling Pharaoh to let God’s people go? Alright now. And maybe you are a public administrator  In the government of a heathen state. Like Daniel, been to the lion’s den yet? Or, you may be yet another Esther. All hail the pageant-winning queen! Sure you can do what she did? “If I perish, I perish” kinda feat? Perhaps you can. Good for you o! But everyone can’t be in all those roles. “In whatever socioeconomic state you are when God called you to salvation, you may just remain in it—whether circumcised or not, freeman or servant, single, married, widowed or divorced, etc.” Salvation is not a mixed package that comes with earthly benefits, necessarily—not exactly. That is a lie...

TRUTH VS LIES

Image
A lie indicates the hidden presence of fear.  An avoidance of accountability. A tactical coverup both to deceive another and to run away from or get away with the consequences of such or other negative action. Any way you look at it, it is not upright. Or Is it? It is based on a distortion of the truth or facts. It is quite different from a positive and necessary withholding or regulation of vital information. It is different from caution based on truth and facts. Lying is not being wise. Craftiness is not true wisdom. It is rather serpentine wisdom. And it is the wisdom of this world. True children of God don’t operate that way. They even confess their transgressions, if any. Above all, they share the facts of the Gospel. They tell the truth—in love, grace and humility. Grace and peace to all God’s elect. Abientot!

ABOVE AND BEYOND

Image
No matter how confident a man is, he doesn’t cross a busy expressway or highway without caution. A time comes when seeming confidence is nothing but foolishness or ignorance. Many are crossing into eternity without thought or reflection about what life is and who the Creator is. The Gospel to them is a fabrication from the West. Where did they get that version of the origin of the God of Creation and Creator of all things from? They obviously haven’t made honest research. They have allowed their sentiments and biases get the better part of them in spite of their literacy. It always pays to do one’s due diligence in objective research and critical thinking before one reaches some sort of conclusion about any subject. Beyond that, there’s a deep work that the Spirit of God does in the heart of man and it produces fruit. Spiritual fruit that will include the recognition of and willing full submission to God’s Rule in their lives. Also with true conviction and contrition for any and every ...
