Do Not Love the World
There is a system of living that opposes God’s Kingdom. Scripture calls it the world. This isn’t the planet or the people in it. It is a way of life organized without God, and John’s instruction is blunt: we are to be in the Word, not the world.

Scoffers
I’m studying the book of Jude for my quiet time. Towards the end, Jude quotes a prophecy made by the apostles. This is what he says: Jude 1:17-18 But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. They said to you, ‘In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.’…More
Kinda Christian Faith
There is a certain self-professing follower of Jesus Christ whose devotion can best be described as kinda. They are the kinda-follower. You know, they kinda want Jesus to be LORD of their life, but also they kinda want to be in control of their own life. They kinda-want absolute sexual purity but kinda want to toy with their sexuality while…More
When believers are living in sin
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
The Fear of Man is a Snare
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

DOES GOD HAVE FAVOURITES?
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
God-given Identity
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
Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices
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
Pride and Salvation
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
Eulogy: the Death of Self
We are gathered here today to mourn the untimely death of our dear beloved Self. He was a devoted fornicator, esteemed thief, cherished blasphemer and a wonderful sanctimonious man that we all loved to hate. Early life and Education Self was born promptly at the same time his biological body came into this earth. He was empowered by the gloriously…More
Let your heart be ready
Let your heart be ready the day God forgives your enemies. At the heart of the Gospel is a plea for us not to allow the grace and mercy of God to be an offence to your sensibilities. In the parable of the prodigal son, the elder brother was offended by the Father’s restoration of the younger sinful brother. The…More
What is the spiritual act of worship in Romans 12?
Hi Ernest. There is this famous verse that we love quoting as Christians. Romans 12:1 “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God–this is your spiritual act of worship.” (NIV, 1984). Could you explain to me what the spiritual act of worship means? Thanks for asking…More
