"After this body is dead, my spirit will soar" - Max Lucado NO MORE PAIN The Bible says that someday we’ll have no more pain (Rev. 21:4), but I don’t think this is speaking about only physical pain. It seems that the ones we love the most are the ones we hurt the greatest and are often the ones who hurt us the most. Someday all of that will pass away and be no more. Think about what Paul wrote: “ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us ” (Rom. 8:18). Ponder that a bit: What we suffer in the present time will be unworthy to be compared with the glory that’s coming! NO MORE SORROW When Martha ran up to Jesus and gave Him a mild rebuke, saying, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died” (John 11:21), Jesus reassured her, “ Your brother will rise again” (John 11:23). Jesus conquered the grave and can boldly proclaim, “ I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die ” (John 11:25-26). Someday our spirits will soar after our bodies die because death’s not final–it is only the beginning of eternal life in Christ. NO MORE TEARS Apparently after leaving Timothy, Paul could still recall his tears, writing tenderly to Timothy, “As I remember your tears, I long to see you, that I may be filled with joy ” (2 Tim. 1:4). When Paul had to leave the Ephesian elders, “there was much weeping on the part of all; they embraced Paul and kissed him, being sorrowful most of all because of the word he had spoken, that they would not see his face again” (Acts 20:37-38). Even though Jesus wept (John 11:35), someday there will be no more tears. NO MORE DEATH After Jesus was raised from the dead, it was the death of death as we know it. Yes, we will still die and then have our judgment (Heb. 9:27), but our sins were judged at the cross; this is only the beginning of eternal life. When I give funerals and they lower the believer’s body in the casket into the ground, I say, “This is not burial ground but resurrection ground, for they’re not here; they’re with Christ,” and “ we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord ” (2 Cor. 5:  .NO MORE SIN Christ put our sins away by His blood, and they are gone for good, for “ as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us ” (Psalm 103:12). By the way, north and south meet at the equator but east never meets west, so we’ll never meet up with our sins again. The Apostle John writes, “ Nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life ” (Rev. 21:27). CONCLUSION Think about what Max Lucado said: “After this body is dead, my spirit will soar.” And he is so right. Someday God “will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away ” (Rev. 21:4), and that’s enough to make any spirit soar!

[b]Hugh Jackman, (You all remember wolverine in x-men) who is set to play St Paul in an upcoming film about the apostle's life, has spoken out about his own religious faith. In a candid interview with Parade magazine ,Jackman said he was "brought up very religious". "I'm a Christian. I used to go to different evangelists' [revival] tents all the time. When I was about 13, I had a weird premonition that I was going to be on stage, like the preachers I saw, "he said. Jackman added that acting gives him a sense of peace. "There are things driving me that aren't all healthy—[needing] approval and respect to fill some hole who-knows-where in me,"he said. "Am I worthy? All those fears. Through acting, I'm able to find a level of bliss and peace and calm and joy. And it feels natural." He also called himself a "religious person" and said he dedicates each one of his performances to God. "This is going to sound weird to you. In Chariots of Fire the runner Eric Liddell says, 'When I run, I feel His pleasure. 'And I feel that pleasure when I act and it's going well, particularly on stage, "Jackman said. "I feel what everyone's searching for, the feeling that unites us all. Call it' God. 'Before I go on stage every night, I pause and dedicate the performance to God, in the sense of 'Allow me to surrender.' "When you allow yourself to surrender to the story, to the character, to the night, to the audience, transcendence happens. And when that happens, there is nothing like it on the planet. It's the moment people experience when they fall in love, which is equally frightening and exciting. That's what it feels like." Jackman has previously distanced himself from the evangelical church, telling Parade magazine in 2009 that he found it too "restrictive". It is thought that his new film, Apostle Paul, will focus on Paul's conversion, his ministry and his imprisonment. Jackman will also produce the film, along with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. The screen play is currently being written by Matt Cook. [/b] 1 Like

There is no easy way to success as far as i know. Many people are lukeworm christians, many christians havent come to a true realization of God by diligently seeking Him. If you are a stagnant christian who do no not feel the need for a daily bread, spirituality will bore you. Serving God brings peace, joy and happiness, serving God with sincerity of heart. Sin seems so easy and enjoyable, but even in the physical realm you pay for it dearly. Alcohol consumption, smoking, womanizing, robbery, cheating etc seems easy, but set your WILLING mind on God and He will help overcome these temptations. Romans 8:6 For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 1 Like |

Benson Andrew Idahosa (11 September 1938 – 12 March 1998) affectionately called PAPA or BA by his followers, was a Charismatic Pentecostal preacher, and founder of the Church of God Mission International with headquarters in Benin City, Nigeria. As the first Pentecostal archbishop in Nigeria, he was renowned for his robust faith. T. L. Osborn remarked on him as the greatest African ambassador of the apostolic Christian faith to the world. Personal life Born to non-Christian parents in a predominantly non- Christian community, he was rejected by his father, John, for being frail and sickly. He constantly had fainting spells as a child, and on one of his spells, his mother, Sarah, abandoned him at a rubbish heap presuming him dead. Hours later, he came to, and began wailing and was rescued by his mother. He grew up in a poor household. Like most of the surrounding houses, his family home was a mud house. This reality denied him access to education until he was fourteen years old, when he was able to attend a local government school. Early ministry As a youth, he got converted to Christianity by a certain Pastor Okpo, and joined his fledgling congregation as one of its first members. He was very active in proselytising and converting many to Christianity. After experiencing a revelation from God calling him into ministry, he began to conduct outreaches from village to village, before establishing his church in a store in Benin City. By 1971, he had established churches all over Nigeria and Ghana. Known for his boldness, power and prosperity-based preaching , as well as an enormous faith in the supernatural, he was instrumental to the strong wave of revival in Christianity and marked conversions from animism that occurred between the 1970s and 1990s in Nigeria. He is regarded by Christians folks as the father of Pentecostalism in Nigeria, and was the founding President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN). Many prominent Nigerian pastors like Ayo Oritsejafor (current President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN)), David Oyedepo , Felix Omobude, Fred Addo, Bishop Mike Okonkwo and Chris Oyakhilome were his protégés. Ministry growth The headquarters of his ministry, Faith Miracle Center, is a cathedral that seats up to 10,000 people. Church of God Mission has branches the world over, from Europe to Africa to Asia to America. With his main task being evangelism, he launched Idahosa World Outreach television ministry (IWO TV), which was a broadcast reaching a potential viewing audience of 50 million people. He is reported to have been used by God in performing many miracles, including healing the blind, and raising up to twenty-eight people from the dead at different times in his ministry. A claim made by Idahosa that he had raised eight people from the dead was dropped when challenged by the Advertising Standards Authority , who sought evidence that the individuals concerned had in fact been dead. [1] He was known for many notable quotes including "my God is not a poor God", "your attitude determines your altitude", "it is more risky, not to take a risk", "I am a possibilitarian", "A big head without a big brain is a big load to the neck", "If your faith says yes, God cannot say no", amongst others. Many of his messages on faith, miracles and prosperity remain a classic among Pentecostals. He had strong links with international gospel ministers like Billy Graham , T. L. Osborn , Kenneth Hagin , Benny Hinn , Reinhard Bonnke, Morris Cerullo , Oral Roberts , amongst others; and took the gospel to 145 nations in his lifetime. At the time of his death in 1998, he was reputed as having preached to more whites than any black man, and to more blacks than any white man. His desire to meet the needs of the total man led him to establish several other arms of the ministry apart from the church. They include the Faith Mediplex , All Nations for Christ Bible Institute, Word of Faith Group of Schools and Benson Idahosa University which is currently under the leadership of his son, Rev. F. E. B. Idahosa. His wife, Margaret Idahosa is the current presiding bishop of the church. Wikipedia. Get more brief on the life of this Great man here; www.dacb.org/stories/nigeria/idahosa_bensona.html |

dalaman:Lol, they wrote the "lies" to pander people, they didnt believe in the Bible. And you a "relevant great man" knows the beginning and the end of all these lies. What makes you think that whatever link you post will move me. As a matter of fact, you will find articles on google that will tell you that; Jesus never existed, Jesus was just a good man, Jesus was a muslim, Jesus was a cultist, Satan is god, the bible is fake, man came from mars, man developed from apes, Christianity is cultism, the bible is a conspiracy, the bible written by mad men, abraham lincoln was satanic, george washinton was demonic, and any other negatives you can think about. Type all these on google, it will surely give you answers. Articles from men. Demonic inspired articles. Point is, you will find almost anything against christianity on google especially with increasing immorality in the world, with increasing rebellion against moral constraints and the good. So telling me to google for answers from articles written by men to discredit the truth is laughable and only makes me more firm in my belief of the Word of God which says in Galatians 1:9. that As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God's curse! I believe in God's Word not the words of random men and I have never regretted it by the grace of God. Psalms 119:105. Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. I particularly like these ones; Sir Ambrose Flemming , British electrical engineer and inventor, 1849-1945 “We must not build on the sands of an uncertain and everchanging science…but upon the rock of inspired Scriptures.” Isaac Newton , English mathematician and scientist, 1642-1727 “We account the scriptures of God to be the most sublime philosophy. I find more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in any profane history whatsoever.” Professor M. Montiero-Williams, former Boden prof. Of Sanskrit who spent 42 years studying Eastern books Said comparing them with the Bible: “Pile them, if you will, on the left side of your study table; but place your own Holy Bible on the right side–all by itself, all alone–and with a wide gap between them. For there is a gulf between it and the so-called sacred books of the East which severs the one from the other utterly hopelessly, and a forever…a veritable gulf which cannot be bridged over by any science of religious thought.” This will be my final reply to you today. Ive got more fruitful things to do today. When next i feel like chatting with god-haters, ill do it. 2 Likes 1 Share |
