WHY AM I STILL WALKING IN THE FAITH; WHAT'S THE SECRET?

Image
My greatest fear is neither the rising fuel prices nor the political tensions in our nation. Not even the Ebola virus in West Africa can worry me that much. What I dread most, with all my might, is to be a failure. And I don’t mean failure in business or in school but in the Christian Faith. I do want to come to the end of my life and be known as the one who ran for the Lord for many years but never arrived at the finish line. I’m sure we all have real-life examples of people who once claimed unwavering allegiance to the God of Christianity, but have since fallen by the wayside. That is my terror. I tremble at the thought of my own loved ones looking at me and seeing a hypocrite; one who has always pretended to love the Lord only to turn around and live the opposite. So, this article is for you: to encourage you through my victories and failures, mostly. What keeps me moving in the right direction? For a start, I am one person who never likes talking about myself. The reason being...

NOTHING IS PERFECT – DEAL WITH IT!

Image
I know that we all have certain expectations of how the world around us must be, and what people must or must not do in any given situation. That is, in fact, where the idea of the word “complaining” comes from. When systems and people around us fail to meet those expectations, we let them know of their incompetence – almost immediately. I would like to believe that that is the same reason we have such an angry generation (at least that is what we project on Social media). Anger is a natural reaction that comes from inner frustrations after you do not get what you think you deserve. Whether justifiable or not, that is a story for another day. My writing today is aimed at reducing that frustration among us, not by changing the environment around us, but by adjusting our attitudes and expectations . To accept that this is an imperfect world with imperfect beings. And that will not change anytime soon. Before we go further, let me answer this objection: “Are you saying that we should be c...

WHAT IS YOUR VIEW ABOUT THE ANTICHRIST?

Image
So, the Antichrist. Who is he, and when is he coming? Should we even be worried about him? If you have been a Christian for all these years, as I am, certainly you have heard all sorts of stories about the coming of the man of sin who will force all of us to take the chip or something like that. In fact, Christian history has all sorts of theories of who that person is. For example, sometime during the Reformation days, believers were quite convinced that the Pope was the real biblical Antichrist. Other prominent figures like Hitler, Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin, Prince William, and Benjamin Netanyahu have all received their fair share of that accusation. More recently, the current US President (as of 2026) is the latest to be on the receiving end of the Beast label. I have noticed that even Artificial Intelligence has now entered into that race as well. That is, some God’s people believe that the current AI system (Narrow AI) will soon advance into Artificial Super-Intelligence (ASI),...

FULLY EXPLAINED IN FEW WORDS

Image
A question was asked of me, “Can you explain the concept of salvation in detail?” Believe me, this is the most important question that one can ask. In fact, these are the matters that must be the priority among God’s people, although often very much ignored. The idea of salvation is simply that you are fallen through Adam, your grandfather. You and I are sinners by nature, desire and practice. We have broken each and every part of God’s law. “All have sinned and fallen short: there is none who does good, no, not one ( Rom 3:10-23 ).” Which means you are not a good person. Your thoughts, your lips, and even your heart’s desires are an abomination to the Holy One of heaven. Which then means that we all deserve that place called the lake of fire, where God punishes all evil. “Hell from beneath is moved at your coming,” says my Bible. Yet, that is not the end. The Good News of the Gospel says that this same God does not want anyone to perish; BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE TOWARDS SOMEONE LIKE ...

MY PROBLEM WITH GARMENT CHURCHES

Image
I have to admit, these are very difficult issues, of which I feel very much inadequate to handle. My greatest fear is being misunderstood as someone who “thinks they know better” or someone who “enjoys picking out on other people’s beliefs as if heaven belongs to him.” Regardless, truth must be told, regardless of what people may think. Because at the end of the day, it’s not about me. That is why I always wish everyone could read everything I write with their Bibles open, to test and judge the difference between truth and lies. The topic of interest is the garments church sects, mainly those under the umbrella of the Zion church of Southern Africa ( Amazayoni ), the 12 Apostolic Church, and the infamous White Garment Apostles Church ( Masowe/Mapostori ). Just to give you a definition: a sect is a church group that has deviated from the original truth of Christianity, created its own practices and doctrines, while still holding on to the Christian title. Although these are different do...

FIND YOUR SILENCE

Image
According to the Gospel of Mark, Jesus rose, “Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, He departed and went out to a desolate place, and there He prayed ( Mar 1:35 ).” The context of this Text was after our Lord had one of the busiest schedules of His ministry. He had just spent the previous day healing all that were sick and demon possessed. And it seems like the following day wasn’t going to be any less hectic either. In fact, in every Gospel account, you will find our Lord busy with something: attending a wedding in Cana, travelling to Jerusalem, having lunch at Zacchaeus’s house, teaching in Galilee, rushing to the tomb of Lazarus, raising a dead girl in Capernaum and healing a blind man in Bethsaida. Even when He finally had time to sleep in the quietness of the sea, we are told, His disciples awoke Him to calm the storm ( Luk 8:22-25 ). I do not think there ever has been a busier man like this. Yet, amidst all that, He still managed to depart to a solitary place; to ha...

HOW TO GET RICH & POWERFUL USING THE CHURCH: 10 STEPS

Image
Years ago, a very respectable, well-meaning man of God gave me this advice: "You have a good gift in teaching the Bible. Someone like you should not suffer in life." Well, in all truth, I was not hearing that kind of thing for the first time. It is an open secret among a majority of African spiritual leaders that church is big business. That is, if you are young, ambitious, unemployed and perhaps not very educated, there is another way to make it in life. Start by opening a church ministry and then (depending on your conscience or lack thereof), apply these principles below... 1.) Present yourself as the holy man – The most strategic part of any commercial product is to be accepted by the people. In this case, the product is you. You start by branding yourself – by giving yourself a title. Call yourself Pastor, and then progress to Bishop, then advance to Overseer, then finally, qualify yourself as a Prophet. You can also add Major, Emeritus or even own all those title...
