The Jews could not comprehend what had all along been revealed in their prophetic Scriptures. But, whatever caused the misunderstanding of the Jews, continues to mystify Christians, through modern theology. Christ was revealed in Jesus, who remains the same yesterday today and forever. To the Jews, the Man called Jesus,…
God’s Church cannot be represented in Orthodoxy.
There are those insisting that God’s Church exists in orthodox Christianity. That cannot be true, as God’s Church is distinguishable by being uncommon and resisted—as not descriptive of orthodox Christianity. That Church is a spiritual organism—opposed to anything physically observable. This is why Jesus categorically stated: “Enter by the narrow…
Permanent hindrance towards access to knowledge
Unlike animals, human beings are privileged with superior communication skills—enabling access to information about survival solutions. Since Jesus, knowledge has been available to humanity. However, there remains one obstacle that has made such knowledge inaccessible to most people. Generally, it is assumed that the uneducated are the ones clinging to…
The hidden significance of Jonah’s voyage
To the sceptical Jewish leaders, Jesus declared: “…An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the…
Are Jerusalem and Nicaean Councils similar?
There may indeed be similarities—concerning what led to landmark decisions adopted by those respective Councils in guiding Christianity.

Exposure of Apostles’ departure from Jesus’ truths.
Every word that Jesus spoke, represented truth. The recording of Jesus’ words in New Testament Bible is infallible. The tricky curve could arise from wrong translations, here and there. But it is easy to establish truth, when carefully analysing every word attributed to Jesus. At the end of His well-known…
All problems equal inability to confront—How Nkomo lost the game.
The meaning of the word confront, can be misleading, when assuming it to only mean standing up to fight for the common good. However, in the context being used here, the word implies being there—rather than avoiding being there—even in an abusive environment. But this may also include being able…
Power—as tool to control other people
The well-known adage: “Knowledge is power” is as true as ought to have been the case throughout the ages. However, what currently prevails is the suppression of knowledge. Power is in the hands of those with guns to kill. In fear of being killed, humanity submits to gun carriers—regardless of…
Why was Jesus the only begotten Son of God?
The entire humanity comprises God’s children. All were created in God’s image, as to resemble God’s likeness (Genesis 1:26-27). This grants humanity the right to declare being God’s Children. However, due to Adam’s sin, the right of anyone to call God as one’s Father was forfeited at the Garden of…
