When You Die! (4)

‘As for me, justified, I will behold Your face; when I awake, Your presence will satisfy me.’ Psalm 17:15

There has never been a race of mankind that didn’t believe in some kind of future life; whether it’s reuniting with ancestors as some Native Americans believe, or the sensual abode of bliss of the Muslim. How do you explain that?

Long before any evidence for this worldwide belief had been gathered, Cicero said, ‘In everything the consent of all nations is to be accounted the law of nature, and to resist it is to resist the voice of God.’ On the night Socrates died, Crito asked him, ‘In what way would you have us bury you?’ He replied, ‘In any way that you like, only you must get hold of me, and take care that I do not walk away from you.’ In his Phaedo, Plato presented powerful arguments in favour of immortality.

Others argued for it, too; great thinkers like Thomas Carlyle, Thomas Jefferson, and the German poet Heinrich Heine. Alfred Lord Tennyson’s most famous poem goes like this: ‘For tho’ from out our bourne of Time and Place the flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face when I have crossed the bar.’

And Byron writes, ‘I feel my immortality o’ersweep all pains, all tears, all fears, and peal, like the eternal thunders of the deep, into my ears this truth—“Thou liv’st forever!”’

All these great minds shared the conviction of the psalmist: ‘I will behold Your face; when I awake, Your presence will satisfy me.’ When you think about it, ‘good night’ here just means ‘good morning’ over there.

‘I desire to depart and be with Christ.’ Philippians 1:23

In his Analogies of Nature, William Jennings Bryan wrote: ‘Christ gave us proof of immortality, and yet it would hardly seem necessary that one should rise from the dead to convince us that the grave is not the end. If the Father stoops to touch with Divine power the cold and pulseless heart of the buried acorn and to make it burst forth into a new life, will He leave neglected in the earth the soul of man, made in the image of his Creator? If He stoops to give to the rosebud whose withered blossoms float upon the autumn breeze, the sweet assurance of another springtime, will He refuse… words of hope to the sons of men when the frosts of winter come? If matter, mute and inanimate, though changed by the forces of nature into a multitude of forms, can never die, will the spirit of man suffer annihilation when it has paid a brief visit like a royal guest to this tenement of clay? No, I am as sure that there is another life as I am that I live today!’

Paul tells us: ‘If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labour for me. Yet what shall I choose?... I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.’ (Philippians 1:22–24 NIV) So no matter how difficult or blessed your life is here and now, your best days are ahead; days without end, experiencing the joys of Heaven. Make sure you’re ready to go when your time comes!

Very silly vendor.....

‘When we die and leave this earthly body, we will have a house in Heaven.’ 2 Corinthians 5:1

When you die, you simply leave one form of life and enter another. Consider the first law of thermodynamics: neither energy (as in your soul and spirit) nor matter (as in your body) can be destroyed. They can be transformed into other forms, but they can’t be annihilated.

Burris Jenkins said it this way: ‘No single atom in creation can go out of existence, according to the scientists; it only changes in form. We cannot burn up anything; we simply change it from a solid to a gaseous state. Neither is any energy or force ever destroyed; it is only changed from one form to another.’ If a person actually ceased to exist, they would be the one thing in the world that does.

So when you die, what happens? The Bible says: ‘We know that when this tent we live in—our body here on earth—is torn down, God will have a house in Heaven for us to live in… which will last forever. And now we sigh, so great is our desire that our home which comes from Heaven should be put on over us; by being clothed with it… it is not that we want to get rid of our earthly body, but that we want to have the heavenly one put on over us, so that what is mortal will be transformed by life. God… gave us His Spirit as the guarantee of all that He has in store for us.’ (2 Corinthians 5:1–5 GNT)

Think of it like this: your last day on earth will be your best day ever! How awesome is that?

.... Yinmu

......but why?
Why do they leave it to the last minutes to wicked this man? And yet, he thinks he knows all the people with him in the same party (APC)?

Good luck to you

‘If someone dies, will they live again?’ Job 14:14

After AD 616, the first Christian missionaries came to the court of King Edwin in Northumbria, England. In his great hall, ablaze with the light of numerous torches, they presented the Gospel. The king listened, then consulted his advisors.

One nobleman said: ‘Life is like a banquet hall. Inside is light… fire… warmth and feasting, but outside it is cold and dark. A sparrow flies in through a window at one end… and out through a window at the other end. That is what life is like. At birth we emerge from the unknown, and for a brief while we are here… with a fair amount of comfort and happiness. But then we fly out into the cold… dark… unknown future. [Can] this new religion… lighten that darkness for us?’

We who believe in the resurrection can answer, ‘Yes!’ A faulty heartbeat, a malignant cell, or a tragic accident can end life as we know it. But that’s not the end. And unless you believe that, here is what you’re left with: ‘If Christ has not been raised, then your faith is a delusion and you are still lost in your sins… believers in Christ who have died are lost. If our hope in Christ is good for this life only and no more, then we deserve more pity than anyone else in all the world. But the truth is that Christ has been raised from death, as the guarantee that those who sleep in death will also be raised.’ (1 Corinthians 15:17–20 GNT)

For the believer, the end of life on earth is the beginning of a glorious life with Christ in Heaven!

........the fear of the retuning officer, is the beginning of wisdom.

Bloody thief. All they wanted is to be there to eat money.

THIS SHOULD OR MIGHT SERVE AS DETERRENT AGAINST OBSTRUCTION OF LEGITIMATE STATUTORY LEGAL INVESTIGATION AND COURSE OF JUSTICE. ESPECIALLY WITH A COURT RULING OR INJUNCTION FOR RESTRAIN ON THE SUBJECT MATTER.

THESE UNTRAINED AGENTS OF MISINFORMATION DISINFROMATION AND BIASED MALAISE INFORMATION DISSEMINATION NEEDS TO BE CAUTIONED FOR RECKLESS INFORMATION ACTIVITIES ALL IN THE NAME AND GUISE OF MISPLACED INTERNET SOCIAL MEDIA ACTIVITIES.

For some of us who do not share the social media menace and the platform it offers nuisances who parades themselves as journalists should begin to heave sighs of relief.

The IDIOT with street urchin personality, a quack who claims to be a journalist and a fake one for that matter goes about with PREJUDICED reportage on ongoing judicial matters that are still in court and despite a court INJUNCTION.

HE IS KNOWN TO OFFER BOTH OPINION AND PASS JUDGEMENT ON JUDICAL MATTERS BEFORE THE COURTS.

The case in purview has been exposed and declared to be CONTRADICTED by the release of AUTOPSY report on it and made public in the court.

THESE IDLE BUSY-BODY NOSEY INTERLOPERS WHO ADORNS THE SOCIAL MEDIA SPACE WITH FOUL MENTALITY GEOS ABOUT AS BLOGGERS AND OR INTERNET JOURNALISTS HAVE CONSTITUTED THEMSELVES INTO NAUSEATING IRRITANT. THEY DEFAME ANYONE AND ANYBODY WITH LIBELOUS AND NONSENSICAL RENDITIONS IN GUISE OF NEWS AND INVESTIGATION.

Prof. Wole Soyinka once had a name or label for the egregious obnoxious bunch. Permanent Internet Resident Idiots, in my own words and they truly are.

IT IS ABOUT TIME THAT THE LAW TAKES CARE OF THE FOUL SENSES THAT GOES ABOUT DESTROYING AND MALIGNING PEOPLE AND CONSTITUTE THEMSELVES INTO THE LAW.

The impunity with which these bunch of obnoxious notoriety conducts themselves should be CONTAINED and it is my hope that this is the starting point to cleansing the daily abuses heaped on our sanity.

are you one of them nii? Why is own like this?

.....and the oaths will kill all of you for your wickedness.

Chai! Sanni?

Oya now...... let's go there.

.......thank God that is no more shocking.

Use Your Faith

Wed, 25 May 2022

‘Your faith has made you well.’ Luke 8:48

The Bible says: ‘Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years… touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped… Jesus said, “Somebody touched Me, for I perceived power going out from Me.” Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden… she declared… she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.’ (Luke 8:43–47 NKJV)

There are three important lessons here:

(1) Recognise and seize your moment of opportunity. This woman understood that Jesus was visiting her town and might not be back. There are ‘God moments’ in life when you must rearrange your priorities, overcome your fear, and exercise your faith. If you don’t, you will miss God’s best.

(2) Be willing to try a different approach. Since she couldn’t get Christ’s attention because of the crowd, this woman touched the hem of His garment and was healed. Many times, faith calls for stepping into the unknown, doing something you have never done before, and discovering God’s grace at work in ways you never expected.

(3) Be a role model. This woman’s faith was an example for others to follow. ‘People brought all their sick to Him and begged Him to let the sick just touch the edge of His cloak, and all who touched it were healed.’ (Matthew 14:35–36 NIV)

The fact is, God is looking for people who are willing to break with tradition. And when He finds them, He uses them to unlock new dimensions of His power so others can be blessed and made whole.

Jennyclay:
Wow! This is the type of love you just can't explain.

Feeling Good About Yourself

Tue, 24 May 2022

‘We have this treasure in earthen vessels.’ 2 Corinthians 4:7

When you don’t feel good about yourself, you live with a sense of insecurity. You keep looking to others for approval, and when you don’t get it, your sense of worth shrivels. As a result, you can spend your life living far short of your God-given potential. You are the only person you can’t get away from, and until you learn to accept yourself based on the fact that God loves and accepts you as you are, you will always battle insecurity.

Stop and think about the last time you were around somebody you didn’t particularly enjoy. How did it feel? Not too good, right? Good or bad, we project onto others the thoughts and feelings we have about ourselves. So if you want people to think well of you, you must have a good opinion of yourself—one based on God’s Word. Now, the Bible cautions about having an over-inflated opinion of yourself—but don’t go to the other extreme. Living in continual self-rejection is an open invitation to Satan, whom the Bible says is like a roaring lion who goes about looking for someone to devour (see 1 Peter 5:.

You say, ‘But didn’t Paul write, “Nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature”?’ (Romans 7:18 NLT) Yes, but that means the good qualities you do possess are evidence that God is at work in your life.

The Bible says, ‘We have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.’ (2 Corinthians 4:7 KJV) Today, instead of focusing on your flaws and feeling bad, recognise the ‘treasure’ of God’s presence, power, and potential that live within you.
