The business of evaluating to effectively pinpoint deceptive pastors is not as accessible as most people assume. Being genuine does not necessarily mean what one agrees with. Pastors are as many as anyone can call themselves a pastor and attract followers. Neither does this mean those preaching differently should be…
Gehenna is for those assuming being right
There is no greater sin than being right, in this world. Adolf Hitler earned the title of being the worst tyrant of the twentieth century. But some people may respect Hitler for standing for what he thought was right. He still believed in his convictions and committed suicide before he…
Emotional anger is a sign of ignorance
An ignorant person can be extremely dangerous. Where there is a conflict between a knowledgeable person and an ignorant person, the knowledgeable person is always exposed to danger. Under normal conditions, one would assume that ignorant people ought to be the ones convicted, rather than harassing knowledgeable people. This is…
Being riled by wickedness is abominable
God’s children see things as God sees them. When a God’s child is riled by conditions of lawlessness, God is equally riled. However, God’s child carries the responsibility, as was carried by Jesus on the cross. The observed evilness is still attached to God’s children. Rather than condemn evil-doers, God’s…

Change should be the most uncomfortable endeavour in the life of any human being. If change comes with a feeling of comfort, that change might not be ideal for the individual. Change requires invalidating everything considered beneficial to self, in this life. Changing from doing what is considered right, by…
The law is inapplicable to the spirit
Without appreciating the spirituality of the New Testament, those declaring, God’s Law is done away with, are misleading people. As applicable to the physical nature, the law is not done away with. One has to first accept the reality of death, before accepting the reality of not being under the…
The harvest of bitterness
The most unwanted sensation in this world is bitterness, and yet at the same time, the most preferred sensation is bitterness. The most terrible thing about bitterness is that it is contagious. The bitterness of Adolf Hitler was transmitted to other Germans, who then carried out genocide against the harmless…
The countenance of the light
The light bears no opposition. Darkness and light appear as two opposites, but not. If one brings light where darkness prevails, darkness vanishes, not the light. Darkness cannot withstand light—hence, cannot be treated as the opposite. In any group, united with a common objective, there would always be some differences…
The power of empathy
Some women, having been ill-treated by men, may suppose that men are unpredictable and different from women. Similarly, men who would have had hard times with women might assume women to be difficult to handle. The same goes for racial dispositions of humanity. Blacks assume that whites are different from…
