Believe

Faith takes us places. Brings us from afar, and shows us the direction we’re heading. Where we can see how far we’ve come, and look at where we’re going. So much so, that we would never think of it to ever be so, if it wasn’t for faith. Like heaven at our fingertips. The kingdom […]

Saving Faith

“Faith without works is dead. “And works without faith is also dead. Works without faith only produces dead works.

The dilemma between faith and works

He Himself was poor, a poor lonely carpenter. But identified with the needs of His people. He went about His life feeding the poor, helping the sick, visiting those who have been fairly and wrongly […]

Are you a threat to the devil?

It’s mind sobering, that makes the heart of your soul tremble at its very core. The fact, the devil allows those to live comfortably ignorant because they are not a threat to him. Whenever they claim to be professed Christians or not. Therefore, without being co-labourers with Jesus Christ, and part takers of His suffering, […]
