JUST A MINUTE, PLEASE! [THE PREACHER'S CORNER] 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 GOD KNOWS THE PLAN HE HAS FOR US, EVEN IN A WORLD IN TURMOIL(JER. 29:11) 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 The way we take Christianity today isn't the pattern that was experienced years before our time. Today, we (supposed christians) are in a competition with the world, forgetting that even though we are in the world,we are not of the world. As at this moment,for the genuine and Unconditional lover of God, God's Kingdom is domiciled in our hearts. But sadly, and very unfortunate too, a majority of christians have even outsmarted those we call unbelievers, in the pursuit of the mundane materials of the world where satan is the ruler. I believe the devil is having a good time watching believers selling our rights over and over again. We can't afford to wait for God's Timing; 10. For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. 11. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 12. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 13. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. (Jer 29: 10-13) Now, the vs 11 of the above scripture is very popular. How I wish the vs 10 will be popular too. Because in the vs 10,we find the foundation of the vs 11. In the vs 10, there was a specific time,a time of waiting caused by the Hebrews' disobedience, the same way we're disobeying today. For the Hebrews,it was 70 years in exile/slavery. The 70 years was their chastisement. They became so adapted to exile that the 70 years came and passed, without their knowing, for many of them have found alternative gods. Thank God for Daniel who studied scriptures and found out that the time has elapsed. The way most of us are comfortably settled in sinful lifestyles. However, the point I want us to understand is that there's a waiting time.And it's advisable we don't compromise or get tired during our waiting period; 2. And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. 3. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. (Hab 2: 2-3) Here also,we have a vs 3 that's more popular than the vs 2,that laid the foundation for the vs3. THE VS 2B,STATED THAT*RUN THAT READETH IT.* This means that, for the vs 3 to manifest, we should patiently run with the vision(obedience to God's Word). Now, let's study another scripture. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you (perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you ). (1Pe 5: 10) Here,it is explicitly broken into 4 phases or stages. 👉 Perfect; It's worthy to note the preceding words... "After that you have suffered a while" In this world in turmoil, anyone who says that he/she's a christian, and hasn't been tried or afflicted for the faith, congratulate them and move on. Those have not known Christianity beyond mere religion. Compromise is hovering around them.*TRIALS AND AFFLICTIONS (NOT TEMPTATIONS) THAT WE'VE PASS THROUGH BECAUSE OF STEADFAST CONFESSION OF CHRIST JESUS AS OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR, AND WE COME OUT UNSCATHED(YES, WE WILL BE BURNT, BUT WILL HEAL, ONLY THE SCARS WILL BE LEFT AS OUR TOKEN),THESE WILL PLACE US ON THE PATH OF PERFECTION BY THE IMPUTATION OF CHRIST JESUS' RIGHTEOUSNESS IN US THROUGH HIS SHED BLOOD ON THE CROSS!* This doesn't include suffering for our sins,eg, being beaten and sent to jail for anything that constitutes a crime. God also flogs us as chastisement, whenever we missed it,and we know it,confess and repent of it. Yes,God will certainly FORGIVE us,but He lets us know that He wasn't please we fell; 3. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. 4. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. 5. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: 6. For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8. But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. (Heb 12: 3-8) But know this,God has the prerogative of the instrument (method) of chastisement. What He used for me, may not be used for you. And if we stray, and God doesn't respond, *IT'S A CLEAR SIGNAL THAT WE'VE GONE OVERBOARD! IF WE TRULY KNOW THIS,WE NEED TO HASTILY BEAT A RETREAT ON OUR ALTAR OF GENUINE TEARS AND CORRESPONDING REPENTANCE.* All these is required to keep us on the path of perfection. 👉 Stablish; At this point,we are rooted firmly on the path of perfection and indwelt by the Fullness of the Godhead! We are already evidentially walking by faith and no longer by sight.Nothing matters to us anymore than PLEASING GOD. We are no longer in church because of what we can get from God. Our love of God is now Unconditional; 15. Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. 16. He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him. (Job 13: 15-16) 👉 Strengthen; Every action requires corresponding energy(strength).At this point, God refills us as we continue on our pilgrimage in this world ruled by the dictates of Lucifer. We no longer look or thirst for, or even value whatever attractions the world offers or its allurements. Our focus is on sustaining and increasing our intimate relationship with Christ Jesus now indwelt in us; 28. Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. 29. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 30. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. (Isa 40: 28-31) 👉 Settle you; God now trusts us as truly His Own, because by His Grace and Mercy, we have sustained the tempo of growth in Him. He begins to answer some of our prayers that hitherto were not answered because weren't spiritually matured enough for them. Here,His blessings,eg, prosperity, become our servants, instead of us being their servants, and we become the pride of our ever Good God!; 36. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37. For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. (Heb 10: 36-37) But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. (Heb 10: 39) According to Rom.8:26-28, the Holy Spirit begins to intercede and groan for us, and everything, and I mean everything(even the things meant for evil), begins to work together for our good, Amen,🙇🙏🤗!

JUST A MINUTE PLEASE! [PHP. 3:10] 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 ARE YOU TIRED? IT'S NORMAL IN OUR HUMAN STATE, BUT DON'T ALLOW IT TO TAKE THE PLACE OF GOD! 🔚🔚🔚🔚🔚🔚🔚🔜🔜🔜🔜🔜 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. (Isa 40: 31) 8. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9. Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 10. Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. (2Co 4: 8-10) *Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours*(Mark 11:24) I don't think I owe anyone an apology because of my recent dwelling on emotional issues. I do this to encourage myself and anyone in the same tunnel with me, and I am not certain it's a sin to be frank with one's feelings,as long as they're in line with God's Word. Flashback on our most recent study,I said we often get stuck between God's promises and their fulfillment,clasped and unclasped our hands between our prayers and answers . There's no doubt that some situations we find ourselves in as Christians, oftentimes leave us forgetting who we are, that Dad told us to ask for anything we want in His Name,and that we should consider it done. So what's the problem...in most cases,it isn't exactly because of faithlessness,but more of timing...though the answers would definitely come,but they don't come when we(human nature)want them to come. Thus, it's like God is late...YET WE KNOW EXACTLY THAT GOD IS NEVER LATE NOR EARLY...HE COMES WHEN HE WILL,WHEN HE SHOULD, HE COMES AT THE RIGHT TIME. But we oftentimes give God a deadline, forgetting that,he who gives Big Dad a deadline will always end up at a dead end. But, vicissitudes of life mostly blind us to the truth we already know. This accounts for why we're always impatient with God...we want to command Him...to tell Him how or when He should respond to us... unfortunately,we missed it altogether, and pour all our frustrations on HIM. If He wasn't a Loving and patient Big Dad, would you dare to imagine what should become of us, for daring Him. Job cursed the day he was born,while claiming innocence... Jeremiah cursed the man who went to tell his father that his wife has given birth to a son...what wrong did the man do? It's the serpentine spoilt sin nature in us always talking, because the devil wants us to be accusing Big Dad,the same way he did that costed him his exalted position as a covering cherub. The Scriptures tell us about how to expect from Daddy God,to avoid demonic manipulations, that would want to turn us against God in our hearts; 35. Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36. For ye have NEED of PATIENCE, that, after ye HAVE DONE THE WILL OF GOD, ye might receive the promise. 37. For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. (Heb 10: 35-37) Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. (1Pe 5: 7) But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you . (1Pe 5: 10) Yet,we can't deny the wholesome truth that, it's easier said than done... oftentimes,patience can be tasking,very very very tasking...it takes grace,even extra grace. INDEED,THIS IS WHERE DISCIPLINE IN CHRISTIANITY IS PUT TO THE TEST... where the baby Christian and the adult Christian are filtered. We all have personal desires, collective desires, dreams and plans. Having dreams is fine, wanting to please God is also fine. The problem lies in being so naive in thinking that this path must be traveled alone and without tools, which exhausts us mentally without even taking a step forward. I told us this before, I want to repeat it again, and like then, I will omit names and exact details,for security purposes. Almost two decades ago,a dedicatedly faithful Christian worked as a civil servant in govt ministry. By virtue of his position and ranking,he was more than qualified for a car,and started believing God for one. But it never materialised. The money kept on going for things he NEVER planned for...yes,the problems always know when the money is available. Thus, the man gave up praying or hoping for it,and surrendered the issue to God. The most fortunate part,was that he NEVER allowed it to affect his devotion to God... instead it increased his dedication. Even his PROMOTION in the office was stalled, juniors met him and same level left him behind...but he wasn't moved. Three years later,his aunt died in the village and he went for the burial and came back to work. Barely a month after he came back, the Minister in charge of their ministry came to work one morning,saw him and asked him to meet him in his office. Summarily, the Minister told him he doesn't know what's wrong and brought a set of car keys from his drawer,that they're his,and had been with him for the past three years. He said that he forgets each time he came to work, only to remember in the wrong places. Meanwhile,there truly was a brand new car covered with tarpaulin under a tree for the past three years... others had since been given away. It didn't end there,he was promoted two steps ahead of those who were promoted before him. The man was like ...he is dreaming and took leave to close for the day; When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. (Psa 126: 1) Later at home, Daddy spoke, and told him,HE kept him from the car,so that it won't become his coffin. HE told him that his late aunt vowed that anyone who buys a car before her own children in the family must die. The LORD said HE gave her every opportunity to repent,but when she wasn't willing HE removed her. END OF STORY! We have a Father who makes everything possible, even the impossible (Luke 1:37). All we need do is to allow God take care of the *how* *How will I achieve this? How will I achieve that, and how will I survive this ordeal* isn't our assignment...not at all* Our assignment is to TRUST DADDY,AND HOW HE DOES IT BECOMES HIS BUSINESS...not us anymore...we only owe HIM trust,and to do that,we must have an enduring relationship with HIM. Only then can we know peace in a turbulent world. Not having peace causes endless illnesses, deficiencies and suffering that we could easily remove from our lives. We just have to understand that there is a God who works in favor of those who believe in Him. His promises are there for all of us who choose to turn over our burdens to Him to see in His Word.(Matthew 11:28). We must leave our big,bigger and biggest problems, (all our problems )in His hands, leaving aside the *how will HE do it?* May He sanctified His Word in our lives,moreso now when the devil has turned the world upsidedown,in Christ Jesus' Name,Amen🙇🙏!

A WORLD AT WAR WITH ITSELF! 👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓 BREEDING UNBELIEF IN OUR SYSTEM! 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 Today, I brought out this *self-destructive issue*,as a sharp rebuke to myself,a warning to myself, from God's Word,and it's left to me if I will heed it. I also pray that someone out there will be helped and encouraged by it. It's said that tough times NEVER last ,but tough people do. Well,if it was true before now,it certainly isn't today, because, tough or hard times now oftentimes,outlast the the tough people. This is a personal opinion yet,and I stand to be corrected. I began with the parody above, because it's the secular motivational version of our Christian Faith. All earth dwellers in one way or the other live by faith,(though they won't call it that). Faith is a reoccurring theme throughout the Bible, and a whole chapter was dedicated to it(Heb.11)! We can't serve God without the Faith,that God is more than able to do or execute every bit of His Word. For the believer, FAITH is our OXYGEN! However,some difficulties pop-up in life,that regularly question and threaten our Faith, oftentimes leading to helplessness,which in turn create room for backsliding...no longer believing that God is able to perform His Word. And of course, it's no longer news that the *curator*of these seemingly impossible challenges is the devil. THE BIRTHING OF UNBELIEF! 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 We begin the breeding of unbelief in our lives, when we feel stranded between God's promises and their fulfillment, stuck between the prayer we pray and the answer. When we allow our gaze to be fixed on the problem rather than the solution,when we begin to see only impossibilities that we NEVER cared to see before...that we NEVER paid attention to,even though they were there. Periods like this,is when the devil sets in our hearts a lot more of questions than answers,as regards God and His Word. I am far deep in that point now,which is why I said this message was and is a rebuke to me. Perhaps,if there's a tiny difference for me, it's in the premise that,mine isn't really unbelief perse, but DESPAIR,BORNE OUT OF ELONGATED YEARS OF AFFLICTIONS. But WHY it's an UNFORGIVABLE FAILURE for ME is that,I EQUALLY have SEEN far MORE THAN I DESERVED of God's Hand of provision and protection, in these flaunted YEARS of SELF TAGGED AFFLICTIONS. If it wasn't so,I wouldn't be here writing this. The truth is,man by nature hates discomfort,pains,hurts and suffering generally...why... because God NEVER created us to suffer,but our inherited sin nature brought it upon us. But I tell us this morning,by His grace and mercy,that regardless of the moment you are living, hold on to HIS promises, to the TRUTH of GOD! He NEVER fails...we are the ones failing HIM The truth modifies reality! You were designed by God to fulfill an eternal purpose! And the onus is upon us,by faith in God,to deny devil the pleasure of ruining that purpose . What you see today in the mirror is not what you will see in the future, because God will take you from power to power! To great things! To great heights we can never imagine! We're going to learn a few things from the scripture below, to better understand the term *UNBELIEF* Allow me put to put it this way... UNBELIEF FOR THE CHRISTIAN,IS THE INABILITY TO SEE WHAT GOD SEES IN US FOR OUR LIVES...and nothing can be more tragically sad for us as believers. Mark 9:23-24 “Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. And immediately the boy's father cried out and said: I believe; help my unbelief.” This narrative took place just after the Transfiguration of Christ Jesus. Christ Jesus comes down from the mountain, transfigured, and meets the unbelieving disciples who cannot do what He has said they are going to do. (1)The man cried*help my unbelief* The man's unbelief started from the disappointing disciples...if he didn't believe in the first place, it's probable,he won't spend resources to get his boy to Christ Jesus. But, unfortunately Christ's ambassadors (you and me),failed in our duties...we couldn't execute what we were mandated to do... because deep down somewhere in our hearts,seeds of doubt are still sprouting. And when we failed,the man lost faith in God's ability to settle his issues. To how many people does our lives, instead of producing faith, produce disbelief? How many people know that we visit our church and when we leave, we talk like the old creature? And there is a contradiction between where we come from and how we live; between the God we serve and the God we represent. AS CHRISTIANS WE CANNOT PREACH A GOSPEL THAT HEALS WITH A MOUTH THAT HARMS. Do we believe in the promises that God gave us? In all? Do we act according to what God told us? What a sad disappointment it was for the man to see that the disciples could not free his son from that spirit, a situation that produced an argument between them! Since the disciples couldn't, so he goes to Christ Jesus directly. For this man, the fact that someone couldn't take away his faith ,that something could change, drove any unbelief to the pit of hell. We must say *I was not born to live this way, and if the last thing I do is die looking for the answer I need, I will do it because it shows my faith that God created me for something greater, and that there has to be a solution for this* We cannot deny that all attempts create doubt; that all past failures lower expectations. But that is no excuse to stop believing in the Lord. My personal rebuke continues...this is what I know and yet refused,or perhaps it's better to say, unable to practise. *SO, WOULD DAD BE UNFAIR TO BE WROTH WITH ME? An emphatic no! When diplomats and ambassadors fail their home government, they're recalled home and sanctioned... oftentimes fired. To be continued...stay with us...GOD BLESS YOU AND STRENGTHEN YOUR FAITH,AMEN🙇🙏!

A WORLD AT WAR WITH ITSELF 👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓 BREEDING UNBELIEF IN OUR SYSTEM! (PART TWO) 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 We learnt how our lives can be a stumbling block to others' faith in God,in the first part of this teaching earlier on. But before we continue, let's be mindful of how our God loathes anyone whose life brings reproach to God's Name; But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. (Mat 18: 6) The*little ones* inferred by Christ Jesus there, isn't limited to children,but generally to anyone whose life stops someone else from believing God and serving Him. So, as earlier said,we should endeavour not to find ourselves in the position of the disciples that almost discouraged the father of that epileptic boy. Now, another lesson from the narrative is whether we can dare to believe Our Father again,after several apparent disappointments! (2)CAN YOU BELIEVE? Every promise in the Bible is for your life and mine. But you see,under the subtly(devil induced) unguarded moments of life,we tend to dry up when we live with the same problem day after day, and we allow our expectations to drop because of our old experiences. But here's the catch...what God really and truly does expect from us,is the courage to declare,inspite of the visible repetitive challenges we face that; Oh yeah,*YES, I DARE TO BELIEVE AGAIN, I REFUSE TO GO DOWN THIS WAY...I WILL RATHER DIE ON MY FEET,THAN ON MY KNEES!* If we are able to believe above our doubts, if we are able to take action above our past mistakes, even though they could not help us; If we can say *nothing is going to take my faith away from me, because I believe that something positive is going to happen*, the moment will come where God is going to transform your life, and you will become everything that God wants you to be. People who know they have a purpose never allow the devil to spoil the purpose they are on to. Don't keep compromising your future by doing nonsense in your present. I SPEAK FROM YEARS OF PERSONAL EXPERIENCE...I DON'T WANT YOU TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES I MADE, HENCE I AM UNASHAMEDLY BRINGING MY SOMEWHAT UNENCOURAGING LIFE INTO THE PUBLIC GLARE! Trust me,it takes more than just an effort. I have always done this anyway,but the name tags that come with it have been really humiliating...but I was employed to do a job, and that job will I do,until the last breath flow from me,by His grace and mercy. There are are those of us that… walk like beggars when we should be princes, crawling when we should be riding for the glory of God, walk with short steps when we should take the steps of conquerors. But since we can't see what God has ahead, we don't see any reason to be confident of change, we don't have faith, we don't prepare and we end up getting stuck! Christ Jesus is the door of hope that transforms a painful past into a glorious future. Nothing improves if we don't improve. You are going to be the biggest surprise that your enemies and detractors have ever seen. Hebrews 11:1 Faith is the certainty of what you hope for. For you to expect something , you must know what you expect. What are you waiting for? Because what you believe is what you will have for the glory of God! Romans 4:17 “As it is written: I have made you a father of many nations before God, whom he believed, who gives life to the dead, and calls things that are not, as if they were. When God called what is not as if it were, then it is! When God said let there be Light, the Light was not, but there it was! Therefore, when God tells you that he is going to lift you up, so it is? God has never and will NEVER make a promise that's too good to be true! Romans 4: 19-21 “And he did not weaken in faith when considering his body, which was already as dead (being almost a hundred years old), or the sterility of Sarah's womb. He also did not doubt, through unbelief, the promise of God, but he was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, fully convinced that he was also able to do all that he had promised; " Don't let your faith weaken, Abraham did not doubt, he was strengthened by having faith! Are you doing the same? Are you filling yourself with faith or doubts? How did he not doubt, and strengthen himself in faith? He gave glory to God. He begins to give glory to God for the miracle that is on the way He begins to give thanks before seeing the miracle. Focus on the miracle that is coming. Because gratitude precedes the miracle. Do you believe that God has the power to fulfill what He has promised you? Yes? So why do you still not walk with all the faith? Mark 9: 23-24 “Jesus said to him: If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. And immediately the boy's father cried out and said: I believe; help my unbelief. * BY NOW,IT SHOULD BE ABUNDANTLY CLEAR,WHY THE MESSAGE IS A STERN REBUKE TO ME FROM DAD,OUR DAD...HOW CAN SOMEONE WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS SACRED TRUTHS OF ALL TIME BUCKLE DOWN FOR THE DEVIL?* I PRAY I RECEIVE STRENGTH TO GET UP AND FIGHT ON....SO DO I PRAY FOR YOU OUT THERE WHO MAY BE IN THE SAME SHOES,AMEN! I think it would be justified to arm and equip ourselves with these timelessly sacred words of the scriptures... GOD'S WORD; 33. Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, 34. Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. (Heb 11: 33-34) May this be our testimony in this race towards the perfect Man,Amen🙇🙏!

BETWEEN SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE AND LOVE🤗! 🤏🤏🤏🤏🤏🤏🤏🤏🤏🤏 As common and prevalent as this scourge is, it's still the most least discussed where and when it should... church, family, school and other gatherings. Adults who should talk about it,( in legal terms), have recused themselves from dealing with it. But,those at the receiving end of it(youths especially) talk about it with reckless abandon. But,it's one of the most poisonous weapons in devil's kitty, with which he has orchestrated many divorces,suicides,abortions, murders,etc,and in the eventual destruction of so many destinies, particularly in the youths of our generation. The myth or taboo surrounding its public discourse was created by Satan to divert attention from this all important subject that has turned global values upside down. Thus, from romantic.movies and novels, and the exposure sex has received like the concluding BBNaija, which I am hearing spent #4.7 billions to promote immorality. Yes,no advert is complete anymore, without a lady's exposed laps,thighs and cleavages...what does ice cream,shoes or books,etc have to do with half exposed breasts? UNDERSTANDING WHAT LOVE IS IN RELATION TO SEX(B4 MARRIAGE) ************************************ Today,love means different things to different people...like our Youths and even promiscuous adults define SEX AS EXPRESSION OF LOVE. Nothing could be more farther from the truth. We aren't here to discuss the meaning of Love,but since it's related to the subject matter, let's have a general run through, before we continue. Many different scholars have come out with very many kinds and types of Love...but we can at least understandably group them into four (1)Eros: Eros is erotic or sexually addicting or passionate love. Eros actually have nothing to do with Love as it is. In practical terms,Eros is actually Lust. This is what we call infatuation...or crush. It's a heartbreaker... anything relationship built on it is bound to crumble. Because,in it, is no sincere appreciation of character,but the physical beauty. And once that beauty has been tasted a few times, the infatuation begins to wear off, in search of another object of interest. This is the most common today. (2)Philia: This is the type we refer to as platonic relationship...no strings attached. It can be the love between lovers when they've been together for a long time and are not so hot and bothered anymore. However,it has oftentimes ended in catastrophy, especially between opposite sexes. (3)Storge, also called Filial,is the love of parents for children. It is described as the most natural of loves. Natural in that it's present without corrosion. It doesn't matter whether the person is worthy of love...whether it's reciprocated or not. For example, women can continue to love their children despite truly awful behaviors. Behaviors they wouldn't tolerate in their girlfriends or their spouses or others. (4)Agape: God's love for mankind. The love modeled on the love of the Christian God for men and the love of man for God. It's the love that is given whether or not it's returned. It's the love without any self benefit. This is the kind of love that's so compassionate that it is willing to forgive the unforgivable. Now,what we have briefly done here,is to enlighten us that what most of us think is love is actually infatuation or put simply, it's actually lust...the term*crush* is mere glorification of it. Before we take a break, I throw in this... IT'S THROUGH THE EROS...WHICH IS ESSENTIALLY FORNICATION AND ADULTERY THAT DEMONS(SPIRIT HUSBANDS AND WIVES) ARE TRANSFERRED. When we return, we shall be looking at GOD'S WORD ON SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE AND HIS RESPONSE. Shalom.

THE IMPENDING DANGER AHEAD, FOR THE CHURCH! (LK.16:24-26) 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 AND CHRIST JESUS WEPT(JN.11:35) 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 John 11:35 is unarguably the shortest verse in the Bible. But till date,a lot of us don't know why Christ Jesus wept. We think like those around Him that time; Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him! (Joh 11: 36) But Christ Jesus didn't really cry because He loved Lazarus. No, He cried because of Martha and Mary's unbelief in Him as the Resurrection and the Life. And that's exactly what is happening to a greater percentage of us believers. And in the same way Christ Jesus is hurting because of us now. And truly my heart bleeds for us (ignorant souls), blinded by only what we can get from God, and not what we can do to make God to be pleased with us.. 2Cor.4:4, 2Tim.4:3-4... Upon all the signs of the devil and his demons uploading daily, man continues to remain stubborn, because of our laziness and ineptitude to search to search God's Word for themselves, thus we chose to believe lies from many pulpits. 3. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. (2Ti 4: 3-4 13. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. (2Co 11: 13-15) PLEASE, WE ARE SO IMPORTANT AND PRECIOUS TO CHRIST JESUS, THAT HE PURCHASED US WITH HIS OWN PRICELESS BLOOD AND FREED US FROM THE DEVIL'S GRIP. LET'S NOT PUT OURSELVES IN THE BONDAGE THAT HE(CHRIST JESUS) DIED TO SAVE US FROM. I BEG US IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS, DON'T SHOULDN'T ALLOW OURSELVES TO BE DECEIVED BY SATAN AGAIN 🙏🤷! Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (Joh 15: 13) 13. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14. Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15. And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. (Col 2: 13-15) 18. Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19. But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20. Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, (1Pe 1: 18-20) DEAR BRETHRENS, PLEASE DON'T BE DECEIVED BY DESPERATE RITUALISTS AND OCCULTISTS CLOTHED IN SUITS AND GARMENTS. IN THESE TRYING TIMES, POINTING TOWARDS THE WORLD'S DESTRUCTION TIMELINE, SATAN HAS RELEASED EVERY WEAPON IN HIS ARSENAL , USING *OUR LUST FOR QUICK SOLUTIONS* AND WORLDLY ATTRACTIONS TO PULL AS MANY AS hE CAN FROM THE WAY. DON'T FALL FOR hIM ! And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. (Luk 21: 8) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (1Jn 4: 1) I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. (Jer 23: 21) AGAIN, I BEG US, WE SHOULDN'T ALLOW OURSELVES TO BE DECEIVED BY SATAN AND HIS AGENTS' LYING WONDERS🙏🙏🙏🤷👆🤔

THE IMPENDING DANGER AHEAD, FOR THE CHURCH! (LK.16:24-26) 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 AND CHRIST JESUS WEPT(JN.11:35) 🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥🚥 John 11:35 is unarguably the shortest verse in the Bible. But till date,a lot of us don't know why Christ Jesus wept. We think like those around Him that time; Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him! (Joh 11: 36) But Christ Jesus didn't really cry because He loved Lazarus. No, He cried because of Martha and Mary's unbelief in Him as the Resurrection and the Life. And that's exactly what is happening to a greater percentage of us believers. And in the same way Christ Jesus is hurting because of us now. And truly my heart bleeds for us (ignorant souls), blinded by only what we can get from God, and not what we can do to make God to be pleased with us.. 2Cor.4:4, 2Tim.4:3-4... Upon all the signs of the devil and his demons uploading daily, man continues to remain stubborn, because of our laziness and ineptitude to search to search God's Word for themselves, thus we chose to believe lies from many pulpits. 3. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. (2Ti 4: 3-4 13. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. (2Co 11: 13-15) PLEASE, WE ARE SO IMPORTANT AND PRECIOUS TO CHRIST JESUS, THAT HE PURCHASED US WITH HIS OWN PRICELESS BLOOD AND FREED US FROM THE DEVIL'S GRIP. LET'S NOT PUT OURSELVES IN THE BONDAGE THAT HE(CHRIST JESUS) DIED TO SAVE US FROM. I BEG US IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS, DON'T SHOULDN'T ALLOW OURSELVES TO BE DECEIVED BY SATAN AGAIN 🙏🤷! Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (Joh 15: 13) 13. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14. Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15. And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. (Col 2: 13-15) 18. Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19. But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20. Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, (1Pe 1: 18-20) DEAR BRETHRENS, PLEASE DON'T BE DECEIVED BY DESPERATE RITUALISTS AND OCCULTISTS CLOTHED IN SUITS AND GARMENTS.

Majesty King Charles III: A Call for Justice and Compassion This is a call for action against injustice and indifference. The countless individuals who sacrificed their lives for peace during WWI and WWII would mourn the ongoing wars and global turmoil we face today, including the tragic genocide in Palestine. We must confront corruption, inequitable laws, and the neglect of our environment across the Commonwealth. Justice must serve everyone, not just the powerful. Remember, we are all accountable before God. Leadership should reflect honor, integrity, and genuine care for the people. Now is the moment for decisive action.
