2nd Chances

-
Contrary to what the media, society and others say I believe the criminals like the terrorists, thieves, rapists and even the pedophiles deserve a second chance. You may gasp and be shocked at what I just said but if someone has been punished for their crime they deserve a 2nd chance. If you read your Bible Jesus and God used many criminals, tax collectors who were robbing the taxes of the civilians and the prostitutes. Tell me who in this world is perfect? Tell me who in this life hasn't sinned or made mistakes? Exactly (waits for it.......) No One!!!!

God doesn't care what you're doing now, God doesn't care what you did in your past, if you're willing to change your destiny if you're willing to change your life and be a better person like Jacob, Samuel and Paul did. Then You're forgiven. Just because someone sins differently to you doesn't give you the right to gun them down and look down your nose at people. We are all sinners and we have inherited it since the days of Adam and Eve. Just think about it you put your shoes in the eyes of a criminal or those people who society considers as scum, you ask yourself how would you feel if you had eyes glaring at you.  Life is all about redemption, tomorrow is a new day to turn it around. I stopped judging people a long time ago, because I know what's its like to be given dirty looks, to be told I'll be nothing, for people to judge your past like many people on Twitter, in my church and some in family do. God looks past your mistakes and loves and wants to use you. As Christians even myself we don't forgive ourselves of our mistakes, I know this as I'm a perfectionist and I beat myself up when I make a mistake, but this is wrong because the devil want's to accuse and make you not worthy, but there's grace and repentance through Christ who saves us.

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch neme...

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ” Matthew 6:33 Disclaimer: What I’m about to talk will be sensitive as talking about spiritual priorities will offend some as it can be a touchy subject; this blog is to educate, help and inspire other Christians to put God first in everything. As someone who didn’t have any spiritual priorities over 3 years ago I have no right to judge or shade anyone, which is not my purpose or aim of this piece. The title must’ve got heads spinning and this is what I intended to do, because like I do, I always point out what wrong goes on in the Christian community and give a solution. We Stan celebrities, and when I mean Stan, if you don’t know the term from the iconic Eminem song, I mean radically idolize celebrities such as Beyonce where her fan base goes to far as insulting people online who don’t like her music, to even take a...
