Jesus, stood before Pilate and got killed, being assumed as dabbling in politics. John the Baptist died in prison, due to what many could ascribe to dabbling in politics. The problem with traditional Christians is their propensity to avoid responsibility. Yet Jesus was very clear in that Christians should be…
Three-pronged approach to understand the Bible.
In this world of treachery and dishonesty, the necessity for Bible studying cannot be over emphasized. There is no safety in assuming that God approves of those in one’s Church Leadership. There is need to carefully compare what they teach, with what Jesus taught. Checking whether on track, or not,…
Suppression and witchcraft are synonymous.
The power of witchcraft comes from desiring to suppress other people. From time immemorial, humanity has been represented in two types of personalities. In primitive times—where sorcery and divination were dominantly practiced—the two personalities mirrored the existence of witchcraft, alongside traditional healing. Witchcraft was anathema to the community, who simply…
God’s image implies that God is neither white nor black.
All problems start with inability to appreciate that humanity was created as one, just as God, in whose image humanity was created, is one. There is no ambiguity in everything created by God. Unlike the other species, as reflected in the animal kingdom, humanity was created in oneness, in terms…
Accumulation of wealth appeals to the ignorant.
Ignorant people assume that dignity is enhanced by acquisition of wealth. Sadly, it is mostly, the poor people who get exposed to this misplaced assumption. On attaining their independence, black Africans are mostly entangled in this fallacious reality, more than other races—possibly, due to colonialism. This is why corruption is…
Exposure of Christian Treachery
Once again, the opposition MDC seems primed for another treachery. This is not new, as they fell for it in 2009 and 2017. The so-called pastoral elders have come up with a sweet-sounding treachery. Apparently, too good to be rejected by the only promising opposition party in Zimbabwe. MDC is…
Ignorant people elect ignorant rulers to govern them
Education ought to be clarified, for purposes of understanding, to avoid ignorance. Some people regard the late former president of Zimbabwe, Mugabe as having been a despot. But, it cannot be disputed that there are others who idolized him for what he was. To those people, there cannot be any…
The order of Be, Do and Having, should not be confused.
People talk passionately about preservation of human life in this world. But what difference does it make when a person lives purposelessly? When existing today, only to be forgotten about, later, because of one’s life having been valueless, what difference does it make? This may sound crude, but a fact…
A leader is as good as capable of serving other people
We live in a world that assumes leadership as implying being served by other people. If there is anything wrong with this world, it comes from the misplaced assumption that leaders are gods. What can be taken as an axiom, on leadership, is that one becomes a leader, only when…
Nothing was wrong with the name Rhodesia, after all
It is on record that changing the name of this country from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe is regarded as landmark. There had to be a distinction, after the blacks had taken over from white rulers. The change made everyone feel that, indeed, there had been some new dispensation in Zimbabwe. But,…
