A Lie From The Pit Of Hell - A Short Story by deezoneclu: 5:36pm On Jul 19, 2012
HOW MANY LIES ARE ACTUALLY FROM THE PIT OF HELL

Ade and Titi are Christian friends. One day, Titi hears something she considers new about the gospel. She immediately discards it because it does not conform with her childhood beliefs. She did this quickly and easily without even considering what the Bible says.

“Afterall” she says, “many false prophets have gone into the world”.
Ade, on the other hand, wants to at least confirm it from the scripture. This tendency in him has not escaped frequent lashes from Titi. Two days ago, a popular TV-Preacher said “It is a blessing to know His Word” referring to the Bible “but you must always know His voice”.

Instantly and without hesitation, Titi nodded like an Agama lizard, lifting her hands to claim it. Ade, who had deep respect for the personality of the preacher but a deeper respect for the infallible Word of God reasoned, using simple logic; “If one does not know the revealed Word of God how will he understand the voice of God”. As though electric charges ran through the spine of Titi, she cast a you-are-not-spiritual-look at Ade and pointing a finger at the television, she said: “This is Apostle Zakkheus we are talking about.

Mind yourself lest you speak evil against the anointed man of God. Remember the Bible says ‘touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm’”. Apostle Zakkheus is an aggressive and prominent figure in evangelicalism. Millions swim into his ministry in search of gold or grace and sometimes to know about their future. The quest to know the unknown is alarming that the pulpit has sometimes been turned to a shrine.

In fact, a few months ago, a certain young man had approached the man of God to know who to marry amongst 5 girls he was dating. Without trying to know whether the young man was born again, he approved of one of them as God’s-Will. Although the Apostle is a big figure, he has several god-fathers he is following. One of his god-fathers had earlier said: “Because Jesus died, your poverty is dead” and untold thousands would raise their only hands to one Accord.
