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 featuring a distinct style.



To the intellectual mind,I have this question.Will man's existence be defined by a bouquette of deities and elemental forces?How can we then presume the validity of our carnal theology,considering that mankind is still unable to fill the void in his soul.Neither the concepts of monotheism or polytheism is solving man's crisis in his desire for a connection with the supernatural.



That there is a suprenatural is an established fact.Man's science alludes to that fact.Where we need insight now is:What or Who is behind the supernatural? We have choosen lofty pursuits in our bid to answer this question.We have fought wars,built contraptions and in fact defined various civilizations on various answers to this question. History is a catalogue of man's abyssmal failure in his attempt to find the primodal 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,exhustive and conclusive view that answers once and for all,the question of the mystry of the supernatural.Where then are the answers we seek?Have we beel looking in the wrong places?



The simple things of life reveal in startling clearity an intelligent influence from an eternal agency.The atheist recognises this fact.



Where then are our gods and why have they failed us? In the three domains of our human consciousnes- memory,contemplation and imagination, we find that the gods live in our brains!They only were a figment of our imaginations,our "quick-fixes" to our dilema,each one leading us down the downward spiralling path of self anihilation.Our being oblivious of the essence of our existence has left us more perplexed about our existence than we ever were.We are driven by frustration to find alternative fixes for our depravity.We find the truth about God quaint.It is too simple,we need lofty answers saturated with jargons.How foolish have we become!Where are our gods now?Where is the science,philosophy,logic and all the other mental inventions we so highly exhalt?



This is my conclusion:As much as you try,concoct more theories and philosophies,your gods never existed,they were in your head!There were no gods,there are no gods and there will never be gods.There is only one God -Jehovah,the author of the universe,And he is not in the complex philosophies,theories and equations (products of your imagination,your gods which you worship!).He is in the simple things of life.Look around you.

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...

Test of Vision and Purpose.

What is Vision? VISION IS A MENTAL PICTURE OF A PREFERABLE FUTURE. It is the ability to see the end of a thing before the beginning. In Gen 1:26, God made male and female in his own image and likeness (all of this was in God's vision, these things were not yet in the physical, they were in the mental realm). In Gen 2, we begin to see how God actually carried out his mission to translate his vision into reality. I prophesy into your life that your dream will not die. If you can dream it, you can achieve it. We see how that there had to be a man to till the earth before seed could grow. What about the man in Genesis 1? He was in the vision realm then. God had to put adam into a deep sleep to produce Eve. What happened to the male and female in Genesis 1? Genesis chapter 1 is an account of the mental picture of the God of all creation, Genesis 2 shows us the process. God created time so that the things in the spritual can pass through the proess of manifestation. Every thing in the ...

Staying Off The Path of The Destroyer

Psalm 17:4 says "concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips, I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer." David was a man with a passionate heart for God. He is even referred to in scriptures as a man after God's heart. How did he get the Father's attention? Well yes he was a worshiper,a praiser and a wonderful giver but what really got God's attention concerning David was his heart and his attitude to God's word. Looking through the entire psalms it is very clear how this man's heart went out to God and his word. God's word was the template for his life and the basis for his passion. He was an ardent doer of the word and this sure got the Father's attention.  Life is ridden with challenges and obstacles that obscure us from our dreams but one fact is clear. The man who fears the Lord is the man who does His word and gives the right priority to the word. Let's dig in dipper and see what thIs great man is saying to us today by t...
