Of God and Mankind

 Proverbs 14:31; 17:5 (AMPC) “ He who oppresses the poor reproaches, mocks,  and insults his Maker, but he who is kind  and merciful to the needy honors Him (God).” [Prov. 17:5; Matt. 25:40, 45.] “ Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker, and he who is glad at calamity shall not be held innocent or go unpunished.” [Job 31:29; Prov. 14:31; Obad. 12.] Dear people of God, today’s lead Holy Bible is a serious warning to people who oppress others and people who rejoice at the calamity that befalls others. With the level of wickedness and atrocities some commit against others in today’s world, it is very reassuring to note that the oppressed person has the Ultimate Being, God Almighty and Father of my Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ as His Consolation. At every level of society in different nations of the world we read, see and hear of: ü   governments oppressing their own citizens, ü   governments oppressing foreign residents of nations whose governm...

Dear friend, see what the Lord Jesus Christ says in Revelation 3:11, “I am coming quickly; hold fast what you have, so that no one may rob you  and deprive you of your crown. ” This is a warning from Jesus Christ to His Body, the Church on earth. When a person dies, Christ has already come for that person. However, for the person who is still alive on this earth, this warning still applies because in today’s world evil has escalated to a terrible level. It is so because the devil and his agents know their time is short so they are trying all their best to ensure to distract Christians to lose their crown, which the Lord has warned us to ensure this does not happen. Jesus Christ came the first time to this earth as a human being to redeem mankind from the curse placed and spiritual separation from God as a result of sin and death that were the consequence of man’s disobedience to God’s commandment. Of course the devil was the brain behind this evil scheme...

A number of people, Christians inclusive, are expressing surprise at the escalating level of violence, poverty and evil in the present days. In fact, reports have it that nationals of so called third world countries are migrating legally and illegally in droves to so called “safe haven” nations of the world in Europe and North America. Unfortunately for these legal and illegal migrants, however, even these safe haven countries do not guarantee any safety from evil as we also read almost on a daily basis of stabbings, mass shootings, car drive killings, racism happening in these countries. Nowhere appears to be safe even when some claim they would rather run to the safe haven countries to escape the issues of their own nations like a friend of mine told me earlier today as we conversed over the telephone. Let us see what the Word of God says about these last days in Matthew 24:4-7 (AMPC), “ Be careful that no one misleads you [deceiving you and leading you into error]...
