A FEW...TRUE FRIENDS | Wuraola Oloruntoba

i waited all day for the reply of my text
yet still sending and having no rest
just the thoughts about how the day might have worn you and I out
and just how i can blow of the tire, i don't know how

tossing back and forth on my bed
as memoirs of us flow to my head;
i remembered the times we fought so hard
and times we laughed so hard
those days we stood in the gap for ourselves
and days we wished we had the world to ourselves

time might have taken its toll
and distance played its role
doesn't make my heart stop its glow
and its beat follow the flow
and yes again, its another day
i'm writing till that day
when life will blow you back my way
and then my hips i'd sway
Because of the joy it'd brought to-day.

MAN AND RELIGION | Segun M. Alonge Jr

'Everyone is first human - religion came to separate us' - Segun M. Alonge Jr In speaking about religion and religious worldviews, I do not intend to exalt one at the expense of the other. I strongly believe that religion is man's orchestrated most potent means of satisfying his heart search for a creator - with the intention of finding meaning to his existence. Going back in time, history portrays one of man's greatest edifice - The tower of Babel (1). The whole earth had one language and one speech. There was unity in focus and they decided to erect a monument to maintain this oneness eternally - Man was then in a fallen state! Come, let us(unity in trinity) go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech (2). Elohim stepped into the scene and confused the language of all the earth. Prior to this time, man had began to call on the name of the Lord (3) as an act of worshipping the now invisible creator and to create...

Revealed! THE WORLD AND YOU

THE QUESTION IS OFTEN ASKED, what should be the relationship of the followers of Christ with the world system? So many have tried to withdraw entirely from the systems due to the fear of being corrupted. Moving around town some months ago, on the streets of Ilorin, Kwara State, I was especially drawn to the various business enterprises around town, but most especially the big eateries. I do not really know the owners of these enterprises but one thing I’m sure of - they are patronized by Christians as well. CHRISTIANITY IS NOT SYNONYMOUS WITH INFERIORITY The mentality of a consumer is so rampant in the Christian faith – some of which sprang from the idea that since Jesus is coming soon, we need not invest in something that would be of lasting value. It is disheartening to hear these same teachings from most of the pulpits. This has made many believers limit themselves in what they can achieve. WE ARE NOT HERE TO SURVIVE So many just live to get by. Investing in lucrat...

WALK IN LIGHT

Ephesians 5:8-14 8 - Apostle Paul was talking about two different dispensation and their realities. The old man is darkness, the new man is light...the default state of a new man is light, hence the walk as children of light 9 - the seed of God is sown in the new creation man at salvation. The fruit includes goodness, righteousness and truth 10 - the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit in us makes us know what is acceptable of the Lord. This requires a daily communion. Just the same way you know what dad likes and dislikes through daily interactions with him 11 - I told you earlier that light exposes darkness. This scripture has confirmed that. Have no fellowship/communion with the unfruitful works of darkness rather fellowship with the fruitful works of light 12 & 13 - light does not fear being exposed, only darkness does. The only secret place we have is the place of prayer; and even this is open to fellowship with other saints. Notice that we are not to hate the Gentiles...
