Epic Tale! A Must Read.

Epic Tale!  A Must Read. 

He said to me "Boy, I can raise seed with Revelation 20:15". We all laughed. We were all young 'prophets'. That night, he climbed the pulpit, sang one or two 'worship' songs and the 'atmosphere' changed. He preached about the reality of hell fire and everyone broke out in tears. Then he sang "I surrender...I surrender all...2X...all to Jesus, blessed savior, I surrender, i surrender all..." Even my legs started shaking. That guy can sing better than angels. And he looked very handsome too. Standing on the pulpit, he looked like an angel... everyone was blasting in tongues...such a revival....he had preached from Revelation 20:15. Everyone was rededicating their lives to avoid hell fire....it was under such 'tense atmosphere' that he paused abruptly as though a spirit was whispering something to him...the next thing I heard was "if the trumpet sounds today, how many of you will boldly tell God that they served Him with their money?"... everywhere became quite...guilt took over...then he said "this could be your last opportunity to surrender your all to God.... giving God your money is proof that you have given Him your heart...if you are here and you want to give God everything in your bank account, please come out".

A huge crowd came out...one girl I liked then also came out... That babe never admitted having money even for one day...she always took from me....but that day, she closed her account and gave to 'God'...

At the end of the service, the man of God said to me "boy, you saw how I raised 3 million with Revelation 20:15?"

I asked him "wasn't it the Holy Spirit?"...I was naive...

His reply shocked me... He said "Bro, Holy Spirit doesn't collect seed, they don't need money in heaven...but you can use the holy Spirit and collect money on Earth because money is needed here". Then he added "Boy, wake up else poverty go kill you". I was restless. 2 questions kept re-echoing in my mind "so someone can still preach hell fire and holiness but still bow to Mammon?...is this all games...is there something real beyond these games?"

False Assertions About Sin. Part 6.

False Assertions Addressed By John.  (3.) "If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us."  1 John 1:10. This is the third false assertion about sin, which John the apostle dealt with. I know you must have heard some preachers/christians today teaching that the new creation man does not have a past; that the new creation man is not the man that Christ died for, that the new creation is not the redeemed for he never existed prior to his birth in Christ. I was once in a service in 2001 when a renown preacher/televangelist, in a bid to demonstrate and pass across this teaching, brought out two men, and put one of them infront and said that is the sinner, that is the man that Christ died for, the man that was redeemed; he can sing: 'Amazing grace...that saved a wretch like me'; he can sing the songs of redemption.  He then led the second man out and said that is the new creation man, the man who has no past; that is

Who Is A Man Of God? Part 1.

The Man Of God Or The Man Of Himself.  A very thin line exists between a man of God and a man of himself. Many today are called men of God but they are men of themselves or men of the people. They speak of themselves, represent their own interests and concerns, even in the things of God. It's high time we defined who a man of God is. The general tendency we have is to refer to people as men of God, simply because they carry the bible and preach or because they set up a religious organisation, and have a building where they use a microphone to speak to a congregation. There's also the tendency to think that those called into the word ministry like apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists and pastors, are automatically constituted men of God. The appellation or designation 'man of God' was not carelessly used in scriptures, and should not be carelessly used by any bible believer. Scriptures scarcely referred to men as 'men of God', thus we should be c

GREATEST ENCOUNTERS FROM THE PAGES OF THE BIBLE.

GREATEST ENCOUNTERS FROM THE PAGES OF THE BIBLE.  By Dipo Ecclesia When I gave my heart to Jesus as a teenager and later staggered in faith, I became agnostic and showed complete apathy to the things of the spirit and I stopped going to church. I began to doubt everything about  Christianity and the bible and will try hard to argue the bible logically with anybody I see. After some years (Five years precisely), there was this strong and serious desire for me to seek God again (I actually embraced Islam at a point but just didn't practice). The desire to seek God was so strong and compelling that it became a struggle with me and the Lord before I finally yielded and bent to the will of the Lord and was restored. Back then I made up my mind that if there is really a Living God and since I HAVE JUST ONE LIFE, then I want to know Him myself before I die and not just what preachers have being telling me, in fact I asked God to show Himself to me and He did by some encounter
