Of God and Mankind

Dear friend, I had wanted to share a different message today but I believe God lead me to this video clip I will share shortly. I had always told my muslim friends that if they just took time to study the qu’ran, it would lead them to Christianity. With the video clip I saw today, my God confirmed what I had always said. It is the testimony of a muslim cleric who studied the qu'ran, sought answers and was lead to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and conversion to Christianity and of course, the usual persecution that comes with taking such bold steps for Christ as Jesus said would happen (Matthew 5:11-12; John 16:1-4). As expected too, it also contains the miraculous deliverance he experienced when he called on the Powerful name of Jesus Christ who has enabled him to be alive to give this testimony for the past 18  years. I don't want to say much. All I will say is watch, listen, research and confirm for yourself. Most importantly, please remember to share wi...

Dear friend, let us consider today's lead Bible text in Exodus 13:17-18, Then it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, “Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt.” 18 So God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up in orderly ranks out of the land of Egypt. For those who know the story, this is about God Almighty leading His people of Israel out of the 430 years of living in Egypt (Exodus 12:40-41), the beginning of which they enjoyed when Joseph was second in command to  Pharaoh  the ruler until a time when a Pharaoh who did not know Joseph came into power and then the bondage of the Israelites in Egypt started (Exodus 1:8-14). In this lead Bible text, we observe two key things - first and most importantly, God's leading. God lead the Israelites ou...

God's Word says in 1 Chronicles 16:22, "Do not touch my anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm." God's anointed nowadays is one who has repented of sin and evil, confessed to God, asked for forgiveness, accepted our Lord Jesus Christ as Saviour and lives an obedient life in strict compliance with God's Word. So if God says no one should touch His anointed nor harm His prophets, then Christians should count themselves fortunate. God's Word says in 2 Chronicles 20:20b, "Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.” God says clearly in Deuteronomy 18:20-22, "But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.’ 21And if you say in your heart, ‘How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?’— 22when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the thin...

Dear friend, we are at a point in human history where our Lord and Saviour spoke about false prophets, false teachers and false messiahs with some claiming to be He, Jesus Christ. Jesus says in Matthew 24:4 “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many." We are in that era because today we have many religions, many claims of doctrine and counter doctrines, many beliefs and many ideas but our Lord Jesus says in John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." The truth is, anyone can make any claim about being the spiritual messiah but we must all understand one vital point - Jesus Christ is the ONLY Person who made stunning claims and backed it up with outstanding miracles! Jesus says He is the Son of God and by that claim attested to His Divinity and made Himself equal with God the Father Almighty. The same Jesus Christ who says this whil...
