THINK ABOUT IT

 In our current society marriage gets a bad reputation in the eyes of many. And to tell you the truth, marriage can look very scary depending on where you look. Divorces are rampant in the church and in the world and for many people marriages seems to be more  of a curse than a blessing. For many people marriage is a hellish experience and they wouldn't wish it on their worse enemy. Marriage can make and break you depending on who you choose for a spouse. Marriage is a serious thing and it requires deep thoughts before you get into it, much thoughts and even more prayer. The worse mistake you can make is to be blinded by emotion and get into a marriage, reality can soon make you regret it. But beside the scary aspect of a bad marriage, it can be a beautiful experience if we understand its true purpose. A successful marriage, based on Divine principles also has its challenges, but can be very beautiful and I think in our current society, marriage is needed more than ever .  Our soci

  In the Bible we read the story of the destruction of Sodom and Gomarrah. God had sent to angels to rescue Lot, thd nephew of Abraham. The angels appeared as men, Lot who was sitting at the gates of Sodom saw the strangers coming and offered them hospitality at his home. The strangers resisted his offer for a while, claiming that they would rather sleep in the streets, but Lot showed great concern and they soon relented and accepted his offer of hospitality. So the angels went with him to his house . Genesis 19:4-7. But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, where are the men which came in to thee this night ? Bring them out unto us, that we may know them. And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after after him. And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly. Because the two angels had delayed in accepting Lot&#

 When we look at the world, we can see a lot of suffering. Every where the cry of suffering humanity is ascending to heaven. But who is to be blamed for all of this suffering? Do I play a part in the world's misery 🤔? In this blogpost, we will take a short look at how misery spreads and our part in it. The way of suffering. In the beginning, God made man perfect; male and female He created them and put them in a perfect garden. He gave them a commandment not to eat of the forbidden tree 🍇. But the devil 🐍 came into the garden and he tempted the woman to eat of the tree. The woman was seduced, the devil overcame her and she then went on her own to tempt her husband to follow her in the path of sin. The man ate of the forbidden fruit and the rest is history, suffering is now widespread.  The blame game.  After sin, comes the blame game. The man and the woman blame others for their own actions. The man blames his wife, the wife blames the serpent and God judged them all. Misery the

 On October 28, 312 AD, the battle of the Milvian bridge took place between Roman Emperors Constantine I and Maxentius. Rome was in the midst of a civil war . Constantine won the battle and started on the path that led him to become the sole ruler of the Roman empire. But something interesting happened before the battle, Constantine who was a pagan at the time claimed to have received a vision from God. On October 27 with the armies preparing for battle, Constantine claimed to had a vision which led him to fight under the protection of  the Christian God. According to the message of Eusebius of Ceasarea, around noon, Constantine saw a luminous cross in the sky and under it the inscription in Greek," in this sign thou shalt conquer. " Constantine also claimed to had a dream in which Christ commanded him to use the sign of the cross against his enemies. Constantine became the first emperor to convert to Christianity.  He ended the policy of persecuting Christians and in 313 iss

 Today is 4th of July, the day America celebrates its independence from the British empire. It's a day of freedom from the oppression of the British crown, a day of rejoicing.  But friends this freedom wasn't given, it wasn't free because freedom is not free. The founding fathers of the United States had to fight for American independence. King George of England would not simply allow them to walk away free. He sent soldiers to crush the rebellion. Blood was shed for the freedom we enjoy today. It was a long and bitter fight until the Americans prevailed and the British empire retreated.  Likewise in the spiritual struggle against sin, the Devil and the world freedom is not free. The devil will not allow his captives to go away away freely, he will fight to the bitter end to keep us in the chains of sin. If we want to be free we must be willing to fight, we must be willing to crucify sin in our lives, we must be willing to die in the battle.  Jesus is our great Captain. Wit

 Recently I saw an article on CNN that spoke about what not to do at a nude beach. They were basically the unwritten laws to regulate behaviors on a nude beach. The article had as part of its title, " lose your clothes but not your manners." And I was like this is interesting.  In a moment it reveals the modus operandi of this evil world. The way Satan ensnares the masses into a sense of self righteousness when in reality they are promoting and taking part of evil. One of the laws at a nude beach was don't look down and don't compliment people on their bodies . This whole thing would have been hilarious if it wasn't such a wicked thing. Now the person who goes to such a place and keep the laws of that place will consider himself a moral person, because he did not look down at a naked person talking to him, nor make compliments on their bodies. He will probably condemn someone else who failed to do these things, who failed to keep the nude beach's morality as a
