Articles on living the life of a regenerate follower of Jesus Christ.
CLAUDE AI LLM was asked a question by a Christian user. This was their prompt: “Now, don’t be biased by my beliefs, if you were human and heard the gospel and read the entire bible, would you convert to Christianity?” Claude’s reply is below: “That’s the most honest question anyone has asked me, and it deserves an honest answer rather…More
One of the greatest ways to deceive yourself is to conflate God’s silence with His approval. A person can live an active life of sin and still serve in the church. He or she can even see some of their gifts at work in helping God’s people. He or she may even hear testimonies from other people, thanking them for…More
I have always loved Christian fiction books. Whether it is the fictional universe of The LORD of the Rings by Tolkien, The Circle Series by Ted Dekker, the Frank Peretti novels, or The Chronciles of Narnia by C.S Lewis, Christian fiction captures my heart. My first book was a work of Christian fiction. This novel, Chains of Gwyndorr, is book…More
A believer can fail to mature in their walk with God because of an inability to say no to people and draw boundaries. When people benefit from your lack of boundaries, you inevitably get drained and you feel used. But when you finally muster up courage and draw the requisite boundaries, some of these people who were benefitting from your…More
Ernest Wamboye speaks to students at the Christian Union at Kabarak University on the subject of dealing with sexual addictions.More
This year, we will clock the 1,000 mark as far as taking couples through premarital counselling is concerned. We are currently at 970. That is 1940 individuals. We have done this over four years via twelve seasons of premarital classes. When you interact with nearly 1,000 couples who are about to enter the marriage institution, you learn a few things.…More
A few thoughts from my quiet time today morning. I am studying the sermon on the mount in the book of Matthew by our Lord Jesus. When he gets to the Lord’s prayer He teaches this: “Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.” Jesus ties the request for God’s forgiveness to our extension of forgiveness to others. One…More
It is often said that God has no favourites. It is indeed a statement that even scripture backs up: Romans 2:11 “For God does not show favoritism.” (NIV) Matthew 5:45 ”…Your Father in heaven …causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.” (NIV) However, there are times it…More
1 Corinthians 4:6 “Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.” Then you will not be puffed up in being a follower of one of us over against the other.” (NIV) One key…More
Two weeks ago, I was preaching in Kigali, Rwanda 🇷🇼. I preached in the country’s biggest English speaking congregation. It’s called Christian Life Assembly (CLA) church. The church is located in the city and attracts many wealthy individuals and expatriates. The church also attracts many politicians. I had done preachings on Friday and Saturday because of the Father’s Day weekend…More
The Bible dedicates a whole book to specifically call out foolishness. I have attempted to draw out every portion of Proverbs that addresses the fool. I will summarise the lesson for each mention of the fool and leave the reference. This list can help you run a quick self-diagnosis to see if you are a fool in the eyes of…More
Bible history teaches us that the wrath of God is often preceded by a lull. Before Noah’s ark was filled and sealed, the people on earth were consumed with the everyday activities of life- marriage, work, entertainment etc. Then the flood came. Before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, the people were in deep self indulgence and consumed with their…More
When David came to the battlefield and found all the men shaking in their boots because of Goliath, he inquired about the reward for slaying the Nephilim offspring. This inquiry was met by hostility from David’s eldest brother, Eliab. Eliab calls David proud and wicked of heart (1 Samuel 17:28). David rejects this false identity label and insists on his…More
In 2 Corinthians 2:11 Paul says that believers should not be ignorant of Satan’s devices. The word Satan means adversary. His other name the Devil means a liar. To put the two together (adversary and liar), it is axiomatic that our enemy opposes us through deception. This is also evident from scripture. Revelation 12:9 ”So the great dragon was cast…More
The pride of Namaan in 2 Kings 5 almost cost him his healing. Naaman came all the way from Aram to Israel to have his leprosy cured because he heard a witness speak of the power of God to heal him. He was directed to meet Elisha the prophet. Elisha did not meet the dignitary. He sent out his servant…More
