Silence of the lambs...

Nothing stirs my spirit more than when I see men rejoice in ignorance,Ignorant men who do not wnat to get wisdom. Oh brethren, did not the scripture say that wisdom is the principal thing and that in all our getting we should get wisdom? Men of this age are pursuing every other thing but wisdom. My bible tells me that wisdom was present when the foundations of this world was laid. What then is there that we desire to be instructed in that we can not get from the school of wisdom. How overwhelming is the foolishness of this world, how pathetic is the life of the man who celebrates his ignorance! He is caught in the trap of an insatiable urge to always hear his own voice and bewitched by a strong sense of entitlement. Let us therefore listen more than we speak for in patient listening comes epiphany. The enterance of God's word gives light and understanding to the simple. Seek wisdom and you shall find her. Not in the volumes of man's knowledge for man has been confused since af

My Epistle To The 21st Century Church

Fellow members of the body of Christ,calvary greetings in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ whose blood procured our  redemption and justification. In this age where knowledge is increasing,there has never risen a greater challange than getting and appropriating accurate information.Christ emphasised this when He said we are to live by every word that comes out of the mouth of God (Matt 4:4).He told us this so that we can be reminded of the position where we are,where we see things from.You see,this sense ruled world is saturated with sense generated information that is an enemy of faith.Faith enables us to stand above circumstances as we encounter them but with the wrong source of information and the wrong kind of information, we will only walk by sight. When Paul the apostle said that we walk by faith and not by sight,he was saying in effect that our life in this kingdom is not a consequence of the things we register with our five senses, but a consequence of what the

Gratitude.

Today,dear reader,wordcompany takes form as a person with emotion,plagued with the same challanges that beset every man.With a deep sense of gratitude to the author of the universe,I can not help but reflect on my life as I have lived it thus far. This morning I was in an auto crash which left several of us wounded.I however escaped without harm even though I was sitting in front,just behind the driver.It so happened that the driver had an epileptic siezure while driving and lost control of the vehicle as a result.With one very swift sweep of 180 degrees,we saw our selves colliding with the pavement of concrete along Lekki Epe express way.I was on my way to work. Sitting back in my office with a disconsolate disposition,I can not help but beat myself  up over how much I should have done for my generation,that is still undone.I came out without harm but I have not stopped asking myself if I deserve such degree of mercy-I have not been as faithful to God and to purpose lately. It is w

WHERE ARE THE GODS II

WHERE ARE THE GODS IS A TRIBUTE TO THE VICTORY OF WISDOM OVER IGNORANCE,the victory of redemption over slavery. In this sequel,I will continue based on what I term my favourite part of the previous volume. History is a catalogue of man's abysmal failure in his attempt to find the primordial force and understand the primeval order of the universe.In all the lofty pursuits that have made up the disciplines,civilizations and cultures of man,there is yet to be found a convergent,exhaustive and conclusive view that answers once and for all, the question of the mystery of the supernatural. In this state,man could not understand the workings of the supernatural,this being the consequence of man's separation from God and His divine nature.Man attributed every phenomenon he could not understand to figments of his imagination as well as other forces that man's separated spirit connected with by virtue of his fallen state.In the first volume I referred to the abstract gods: reaso

WHERE ARE THE GODS.

Wrapped in the cocoon of self consciousness,we have grappled with the complexities and intrigues of our primeval essence.As a species,we have tried to profer solutions to the mind bugging,ageless question of our identity,origin,purpose and destination . As a consequence of the confusion we have found our selves,various schools of human consciousness have proferred answers that have left us more bewildered than ever.We find ourselves surrounded by a cacophony of opinions without the prospect of convergence. Devoid of adequate understanding and exhibiting exhuberance in ignorance,we attributed every phenomenon that defied our logic and cognition to some force or metaphysical element and brewed a concoction of deities.Some say these deities are primodal beings while others believe that they are the essence of our forebears watching over us.When we have questions,we run to them.When we have problems,we ask them to solve them.We make elaborate sacrifices and pour libations,each cult fe
