Jesus proclaimed, “Truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death” (John 8:51 NIV). While some may doubt Jesus’ words, believers are entitled to accept this statement without reservation. His declaration stemmed from His understanding of human value. Questioning the state of those created…
The spirit is more real than the physical
Witnessing humans struggle with seemingly insurmountable challenges can be disheartening. Jesus assured his disciples that nothing would be impossible to overcome with faith as small as a mustard seed. The ability to tackle all of humanity’s challenges lies within the structure of society, yet it often eludes humanity itself. Our…
Giving is another description of life
The concept of life, as the antithesis of death, implies that to receive, as opposed to give, is akin to death. A person may be considered as lifeless as they are incapable of giving, yet as vibrant as they can bestow abundant benefits. Typically, human life is valued above all…
The significance of virtual freedom
In a world of contradictions, words often take on meanings contrary to their intended ones. “Freedom” is a term frequently misused in this way.

The impact of being discordant
Opposing a popular trend, especially in a harmonious environment, requires a unique blend of courage, conviction, and resilience.

However, propaganda doesn’t always work on those who know that not all that glitters is gold. Despite the number of people envying their lifestyles, the downfall of propagandists is predictable. The…
The Kingdom of God transcends the relevance of femininity and masculinity.
Jesus encountered questions designed to challenge His authority, posed by religious factions such as the Pharisees and Sadducees. The Pharisees accepted the concept of resurrection, unlike the Sadducees. The disunity between these groups contributed to their inability to unanimously condemn Jesus prematurely. At one point, the Sadducees asked a question…
Another angle of knowing God is to know oneself
Many people claim to know God but cannot prove beyond a doubt the deity they speak of. Knowing God is achievable by following the steps toward understanding. For those open to confronting the truth without bias, knowing God is not a challenge. The principle of learning any subject, including comprehending…
The significance of witnessing in pairs
Concentrating on personal affairs resonates with a society indifferent to the welfare of others. Human nature often favours competition over collaboration, as illustrated by Cain’s discomfort when Abel’s offering was considered better than his own. Jealousy arises from unquenchable materialistic desires. God’s observation that it was not good for man…
