Save Our Generation! The Gethsemane Hour Of A Nation.

Save Our Generation! The Gethsemane Hour Of A Nation. The noise and emptiness, of what is being churned out as music, from the Nigerian Music Industry today, is so appalling; yet amazingly appreciated by the young generation. It's sadly a reflection of the low level of thinking of many of the youths. The music in every generation is a reflection of the state of that generation; thus when the music is all about sound, beats and meaningless rhymes with little or no message in it, it shows that the generation is a noisy/boisterous generation that has no message. It is sadly a generation with all the instituitions, equipments and technologies for productive education, and relevant information, potent enough to birth national transformation; yet a clueless generation bereft of sound education and knowledge. It's not a surprise to see Nigeria in the doldrums and cesspit of corruption and ineptitude of leadership, with the younger generation failing to arise and save the day.

The Religious Middle Wall Of Partition And Segregation Part 1.

One God Vs The Many gods Of Denominations. To the children of Israel under the old covenant, they knew and called upon one God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. To the church of Christ under the new covenant, we know and call upon one God, the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ; however, the denominations/many 'church' sects professing christianity today, have their different gods they call upon, depending on the denomination/'church' one professes to belong to...the god of this or that commission, the god of bishop this or that.  Truly if it be the church of bishop so and so, then it must also be the god of that bishop that is actually served and worshipped. Romans 16:17-18 clearly reveals to us, that the actual god being served and worshipped in denominations(those who cause/maintain divisions in the body of Christ), is the belly and we are admonished to avoid such grounds of fellowship.  Romans 16:17-18 "Now I beseech you, brethren,

The Dire Need For Spiritual Sensitivity. Ephesians 2:1-2 "And you  hath he quickened , who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience". 5:14-18"Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord  is . And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit" The scripture texts above, lifted from the 2nd and 5th chapters of the book of Ephesians, presents to us three important points: (1.) Spiritual Deadness In Sins And Tresspasses: a state which every man born into this world, comes into at birth; but which only faith in th

Esau's Profile In The Church Today. According to Genesis 25:27-34 and Hebrews 12:16, Esau was profane and had little or no regard for spiritual things. He was adventurous, self motivated, self driven, a go-getter, a physical result/profit-oriented man, who saw little or no profit in a spiritual inheritance to be conferred with just words/pronouncements of blessing. He was a daring and bold hunter like Nimrod, who was a mighty hunter before the Lord(See Genesis 10:8-10). Esau was just not the man for the spiritual inheritance. He casually sold his birthright for a morsel of meat, yet before the time and day came for the release into the blessing of the inheritance, he had ample opportunity and time to redeem the time, but he saw no need for that. He lacked spiritual understanding and sight, thus, he walked like a mere/carnal man who cannot receive the things of the Spirit of God, as they are foolishness unto him. To him anything that wouldn't profit him physically/mat
