  As Christians in the 21st century, we are told not to judge. Some even have quoted our own Bible to us, “Judge not, lest ye be judged” (Matthew 7:1-3). But what is this fear that is motivating sinners to pronounce their own judgment upon those who take the Bible seriously? I believe it’s their own fear of standing before a holy God themselves and being ultimately accountable for their own sins and rejection of Jesus Christ after they die! For the Christian our judge will be our Saviour, so we don’t fear going to hell precisely because we have trusted in him, and we are forgiven, but for those who haven’t entrusted their lives to Jesus Christ, they have everything to fear because the God they have rejected will ultimately condemn them, unless they truly repent before they die.  Not wanting to be judged in this life would make our particular judgment after death extremely terrifying. Some people who think like this have an extremely distorted view of the Bible and Christian th...

  Christianity isn’t just a religion about having your sins forgiven, it is also is a religion about forgiving others. Jesus said in Matthew 6:14-15 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive yours.” Forgiveness demonstrates the heart of God. When we are forgiven by God, we must forgive others from our hearts. When we fail to do this we are not forgiven ourselves. Jesus Christ died for our sins, but we must be willing to obey God and be like Jesus if we want to go to Heaven. Salvation is free, but we don’t get a free ride. Just because we are saved by grace, this doesn’t give us a license to sin, and unforgiveness is sin.   To demonstrate that we ourselves are forgiven we have to conform ourselves into the image of Christ’s character, read Romans 8:29, “For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be th...

  To be absent from the body (death) is to be present with the Lord! (2 Corinthians 5:8). Christians believe that when we die believing in Christ that when we die we enter God’s Presence. When Jesus Christ died on the cross, he was dying for the sins of humanity. Anyone who puts their trust in Jesus Christ on this earth and lives with this faith up until their death, won’t suffer eternal death after they die (hell). The bible doesn’t give us details about heaven, but we are promised that our souls will experience joy and bliss while we are there. Every Christian who is now in heaven is also awaiting the resurrection of the dead.   When someone dies physically they enter eternity. There will be a time when Jesus Christ will come back to this earth, and when he does, he will bring with him all the Christians who have died, (1 Thessalonians 4:14). It is our faith that prepares us for heaven, the Bible says that without faith it’s impossible to please God, (Hebrews 11:6). Christia...

  One of the main messages of the Gospel is love. The biblical concept of love has been corrupted in the past several years by secular society. They have turned the idea of love more into lust and promote a form of self-love that is incompatible with the bible. Why is the idea of love so strong in the Bible! The answer is obvious. In 1 John 4:8 the bible says that God is love. Notice that it doesn’t say that God expresses love, or that God thinks about love, no, it says that one of God’s main attributes is love! It’s love that makes God who he is.   As humans we talk a lot about love, but I can guarantee you that there has been no other perfect human love other than Jesus Christ. This is one of the reasons why we need a Saviour. We can’t love perfectly, however the bible does tell us to love one another, and the Holy Spirit helps us to do just that, (Romans 5:5). So what is Spiritual blindness? It happens when humans fail to love, and misinterpret love. Unless we are redeemed,...

 Many people worldwide are wondering why there is so much financial insecurity in the world? Could it be that leaders in our society have prioritized wrongly in developing modern nations? The world paradigm for communities worldwide has been growth and development. The problem is that they have failed to consider the poor, the disabled and the elderly in their planning. The goal of modern leaders is the mega city. There is absolutely no humanitarian planning to help the poor, and this is why the world is suffering right now. God cares for the poor, the elderly and the disabled but modern growth tends to push these people away, and only caters to the rich. The reason why the world is suffering right now is because of poor planning by our leaders, who see these groups with scorn and tend to only do things that grow and develop their nations. We cannot live in a just society if we neglect the needs of the poor, and true growth considers the lives of all people, not just the super rich...

  Read these passages from the book of Romans, “The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness,  19  since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.  20  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. 21  For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.  22  Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools  23  and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.” (Romans 1:18-23.) The bible teaches us that there is a God, but by our own sin or wickedness we suppre...

  The bible is not just a book about forgiveness but it is also about reconciliation as well. It teaches us how to be reconciled to God and it gives us instructions about how to be reconciled to others. In Matthew 5:23-24 the bible says:   23 So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,   24 leave your gift there before the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.   Another example of reconciliation is found in the story of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32). In this story the younger son asks for his share in his father’s inheritance, while his father is still alive, in order to travel to a distant country. While he is there, he spends all the money on loose living and partying. He becomes destitute and reasons with himself that if he returns to his father’s house, he would be provided for and wouldn’t starve to death. The bible says he came to his senses, which m...
