Heart of the Wise

  Which way Nigeria? It is political change or is it religious belief? Is it your “financial seed” given in your religious circles to provoke so-called “breakthroughs”? Or is it good governance needed to turnaround the unfortunate fortunes of the poor masses? Is it guesswork and trial by error seen in the false and blasphemous applications of the Blood of Jesus, the Name of Jesus and the Lord’s Table to solicit or stimulate socioeconomic uplifting? Like men groping in darkness, yet making empty promises to fellow captives of same darkness. It is a clear case of the blind leading the blind. It has every sign and symptom of a classical case of large-scale cognitive dissonance. So exactly what is it this time? A nation in the throes of labor…birth pangs? A brewing nationwide evolution of patriotism? Another noisy trend powered by media frenzy? A ray of socioeconomic hope for the citizenry? In a nation deviled by poor governance, wrong leadership and bad management of resources, everyone a

  Why do you “go to church”? What do you do in “church”? Mind you, you don’t “go to church”. Why? The True Church is not the physical building. It is the Spiritual Body of Christ.

Definitely, no. The Father adds you into the Body of His Son by the birthing of the Spirit. It’s not your job.   The Spirit in you will bear witness to this truth.  So again, why do you gather to fellowship with

  BETTER A FOOL THAN A FELON When given only two of these options… Fool or Felon? Be a fool not a felon. You will lose many good things but you won’t reap the terrible consequences of bad things. A fool lacks wisdom. A felon lives wickedness. So I say: when given only these two options, it is better to reduce your light (to not try to defend or promote yourself and be regarded as a fool, a sinner or a nobody) than to increase your inner darkness (to become more self-seeking, proud, greedy, fearful, manipulative and even ruthless just to prove your point or have your way). This principle has many nuances; as seen below. But to have a fundamental understanding of this in its core essence, it is pertinent to meditate on these words of Holy Scriptures, in Psalm 84v10: “Better is ONE DAY in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a DOORKEEPER in the house of my God THAN dwell in the tents of the wicked.” So you see? Better to have limited time and enjoyment in God’s place o
