As a Christian with Pentecostal/Charismatic background I have been raised to the practice of binding Satan during intercessory prayer. In prayer meetings, right after we confess our sins, (something that we often do first), then the prayer gets louder especially when we start saying, “I bind you Satan!” Sometimes some of us even go with the Old English version of […]
A gateway is an entrance or a passage that can be opened or closed by a gate structure. It’s a means of entry or access. It is used in Acts 12:13 RSV or Revised Standard Version where Peter knocked outside the house of Mary (John’s mother) after being supernaturally released from prison. In last year’s 22nd National Prayer Gathering, “prophet” […]
Silent therapy, in my opinion, is one of the most potent tools available for the wives out there. Forgetting a very special occasion or with just a wrong tone of voice, husbands, you’ll be in for an indefinitely long therapy of silence. I could just imagine how Adam felt like had Eve been its Inventor. But this article is really […]
Sometimes as intercessors, we become so desperate in finding the answers to our country’s woes that we become blinded by our very own desires to see our prayers through. Then we turn to look for “prophets” and “apostles” that will reaffirm those desires and good intentions. And when they do come, readily we receive and believe them but neglecting our […]
Frankly speaking, I was hesitant in writing about love since it?s the month of February and everyone?s already talking about it. But there is something about it not everyone is so lovey dovey about ? the truth. “They perish because they refused to LOVE THE TRUTH and so be saved.” 2 Thess. 2:10, NIV. Written by the Apostle Paul around […]
To judge or not to judge? That is the question. And rightly so, since that the Lord has said “Judge not, that ye be not judged” (Mat 7:1, KJV). But this verse has raised concerns to a few why discernment ministries such as this one and?The Bereans: Apologetics Research Ministry?are able to label “false” the prophet-, the teacher-, and the […]
First in the series, Fact or Fallacy aims to debunk fallacies or any reasoning caused by misconceptions against facts and the Scriptures. This article is not against tithing per se because we believe it is a matter of personal conviction. There is no law against giving (or tithing for that matter). But there’s just so many lies out there that […]
Exegesis is to “lead out” the original meaning of a Biblical text. It’s a way of bringing out the original intent of the author by studying not only the background of the writer, the background of the recipient but also the situation or the occasion that gave rise for its writing. The the text is carefully analyzed by considering its […]
Is Science compatible with the Christian faith? I would like to think so. Science is the observation and study of the world we live in, while faith is the belief in the God who created that world. Hence the more we understand our surroundings, the more we should be able to appreciate the God who created it. We can even […]
“When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth…. Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord.” Acts 7:54-57 (KJV) Emotional and insecure, that’s how the religious leaders handled the case of Stephen before they stoned him to death.
