Complete in Him.

We have been given different templates for defining completeness in life by pou society.Some schools of thought have it in the form of physical substance.They believe that you are complete if you have money and influence.Others believe you are complete if you have men at your beck-and-call,yet others believe that a complete man is one who can satisfy his woman in all ramifications.
What is completeness then?The bible tells us that completeness is not in the things we do but in who we are.In this world,there are two kinds of people: those who are in the middle of an identity crisis (No thanks to the fall),and those who now know who they are in Christ. Paul the Apostle said in Eph 1:22-23 that God made Christ the head over all things to the Church which is his body,the fullness of Him who fills all in all ,so you see that Christ is not only the fullness of all things in God but he also fills all things in God.We can also say that Christ is the completenes of all things in God and He completes all things in God.Hallelujah!
Your positioning and relevance in this system of things is not a function of what society defines (Because society is bound in the realm of the five physical sences and can not concieve any thing beyond this realm),it is a function of who you know you are.People who battle with complexes and self-esteem issues have got to know that in Christ,it is not about what the world says or think about you,but it is all about who Christ has made you become! If only believers will realise this,then we will be free from frustration and depression.We will not have issues with acceptance because we have been accepted into the beloved.Do you see that?
People of God let us now walk tall in the accurate knowledge of who we are in Christ.He is our completeness and we are complete in Him.What more can we ask for!

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...

Orbis Unum

We witness a display of man's tendency for a unified system in the Babel episode as recorded in the book of genesis. Here we see man uniting and making himself mighty in a "one world" government. I want to answer two questions that arise from that episode: Was man's crave for a one world government (and that crave is still unsatisfied) an accident? Also, was God's refusal justified? "Orbis Unum" is the latin for "one world" and this has been the direction that world politics has been heading. From the time of Nimrod, to the Pharohes of Egypt, to Nebuchadnezzar, to Dairus, to Alexander the great, to Julius Ceasar, the list is endless. The primary motive that drove the manifestation of their dominion was Orbis Unum. Believe it or not, the Roman Catholic Church joined the party and Islam is about Orbis Unum.Why then is this drive towards a one world system? Understanding this will give insight into the direction that world politics is heading to...

The Owner of the Office knows best.

Earlier this evening I decided to cook for the family. I wanted to prepare a local delicacy popular with the Enugu people of Eastern Nigeria. It is called Okpa. It is a pudding made from the flour of bambara nuts with palm oil, pepper and a little salt. You can add pepper to taste. My son is particularly fond of it. Well, my wife is the manager of the kitchen and the store. She went to church for clean up, leaving me and my boy at home. I decided to give her a helping hand. It was she who organized the store and it was she who really knew where what was kept. I invaded her office with good intentions. But you know how that saying goes that good intentions are not enough. I had never prepared Okpa myself but I have watched her do it several times. I can learn by observation so I knew what to do. I entered into the store and got the flour I used, combining it with the other ingredients and seasoning it to taste. It was going to be delicious and I felt proud of myself. I put it on the ...
