“And no longer shall each one teach his neighbour and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more” (Jeremiah 31:34)…
The great chasm—impossible to cross from either side.
“‘And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would pass from here to you may not be able and none may cross from there to us.’ And he said, ‘Then I beg you, father, to send him to my…
Nkosana Moyo’s political ideas appeal as the best
There is no magic to the country’s revival, except in educating young people to appreciate that value is in each individual. And value becomes value, only when it is given away to benefit other people. Zimbabwe is valuable or not valuable, according to its productive capacity, based on ideas of…
Should I submit to Christ, or join any Church organization?
Some evangelists would advise joining whichever denomination appeals to an individual, as way of submitting to Jesus. Other Church authorities would declare that it is only their denomination that represents the true Church. However, all that projects what cannot be right—as no-one can “join” God’s Church.

Greatness is Loving humanity—despite reasons to hate
Jesus Christ left a legacy that instills greatness in anyone’s life, whether in this life, or in the life to come. How can one love a person who—not only persecutes him/her—but desires to see him/her dead? Basically, our Lord and brother Jesus Christ, is regarded as the greatest man who…

Three attributes of Jesus—identify with true Christians
The title of being ‘Christian,’ qualifies one to carry three attributes of Jesus. Without these, it is futile for anyone to assume being Christian. Under normal circumstances, this revelation could transform Christianity upside-down. But certainly, very few can be willing to renounce comfort. The only problem with truth is that…
The risk of nuclear war in face of altruism
The world is at the brink of nuclear war. North Korea is the villain, where every nation, opposed to North Korean’s nuclear programme is considered virtuous. World leaders are preoccupied with what could be the best course of action to avoid the catastrophe. The strategically positioned legal minds remain without…
Christianity is defined in one word: Altruism
Arguably, Christianity is the largest religion in the World. But Christianity is not a religion, but a principle that ascribes to altruism. When Jesus summed up what He described as fulfillment of the law and the prophets, He was basically talking about altruism. “So whatever you wish that others would…
