Can we depart from the path of evil in this evil world? We're a new Creation, and we should put on Christ yet we live in an evil generation, where living in evil doing is the new   "norm " . Is it possible to please God in such a generation? As people who've called on Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we're given the grace to choose good over evil.   But one needs to learn it, to be tested and to go to the next level of testing until you're rewarded a Crown. Let's soak ourselves in Proverbs 16:6-8  to see how to overcome evil. (please open your Bible so you may discern) 1. You're forgiven through love and faithfulness : not of men but of God, therefore live in Him and not in the condemnation of Satan. Often we cling to the evil of this world because you feel unworthy. • you too ought to forgive others, which is at times difficult, especially if you try to do it by yourself. God's Spirit in you will enable you. You need to do it by pray

Where is God’s Grace in this global pandemic? By Alfonsine Chilala & Elwin Mangundu God is love. You can't speak or think about love without God. He invented love; love that can't be defined without sacrifice which involved his only Son. His love can't sometimes be seen, because of the troubles we face we fail to see it, especially in this pandemic: COVID-19. How can we prove God really love humanity in such a season? Can we fully depend on humans to find the antidote for the corona-virus? Is God really going to reveal His Grace for us in such a time? We are all affected by COVID-19 , some of you might be going through depression, hardships, addictions, disappointments, anxiety you name it yet: “I still love you” says God. We need to be tested in certain situations to see how faithful and loyal we truly are. Your faith won't grow if you haven't been in a situation where you felt there was no way out and then made it out and realized it was God all

The concept of New Birth

What is being born again and why is it so important? John 1:12 Tells us that the concept of being born again is all about GIVING our lives completely to Christ. This scripture gives us a formula for knowing that we are born again. To be born again= Is to believe  in Christ and receive  Him. The 1st step to living the new life, is to believe that Jesus is the Son of God, that He came down as a man, was crucified for our sins, and went back to the Father, that He will one day return again. The step first required is to take a leap of faith; to believe in the unseen God, to dare to call Him Father.  The 2nd step is to receive Him, the Christ, as your personal Lord and Savior; you accept His Lordship/Kingship over your life, you leave your life in His hands to direct. You confess that you are a sinner and that you need Him to make you whole, to save you. That is where the journey begins!  Romans 10:9-10 goes further to develop the equation as say that to be born

The Fall of Mankind

The Fall of Mankind Genesis 3:1-10 We all know the story, we have heard it being preached somewhere or spoken in some place or another; the fall of mankind. God told Adam and his wife, Eve, not to eat from one tree in the garden or even to touch it; lest they shall die .  So, the story begins, the snake comes and asks: "Did God really tell you not to eat from any tree?" Eve replies: "No, not any tree; just the one in the middle." The snake tricks Eve and she eats and then also gives to Adam to eat from the fruit. And just like that, with that little disobedience the fall of Mankind begun. Sin entered the world, and SIN when it was fully grown gave birth to DEATH . With all this came SHAME and GUILT. But the thing humans lost that day, was being in the presence of God.  The fall of Man indicates that we fell from a high place, a place of glory (ESV Romans 3:23: "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God").
