WHEN LANDLORD COMES KNOCKING

 WHEN LANDLORD COMES KNOCKING

Imagine your landlord calling, "I stand at your door and knock. If you open, I'll come in and dine with you, and you with me."
Do not be surprised that some respond to the effect that, "Landlord, mind your business. I have no food here to share with you, and I beg don't interfere with my life. Do I owe rent or what? I beg, don't come and look for my trouble."
A gentle landlord will walk away, but you better be sure you won't need to renew your tenancy! A rude landlord will hit back in ways that may even cut your current tenancy short.
But, have you thought about why your landlord may want to dine with you, especially if he is known to be very well to do, generous and influential? Would your reaction be as described above?
Apparently, nine of ten people would react respectfully to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and that is why they are following Him, many of them genuinely.
Are you among the outstanding one out of ten that would react rudely? Don't be in a haste to make a negative decision when matters of eternal life are presented to you. Why must you rush to your death?
Consider Jesus carefully and give a good response.
#Luke2447 in Revelation 3:20

THE CHRISTIAN AND THE LAW OF MOSES

July 3 at 7:48 AM  ·  On the Christian and the Law of Moses Since Christ has set you free from the curse of the Law, now put to death the following: 1. Fornication 2. Uncleanness 3. Passion (letting evil thoughts control you) 4. Evil desires 5. Covetousness, which is idolatry 6. Anger, or wrath 7. Malice 8. Blasphemy 9. Filthy language 10. Lies "Because of these, God's wrath comes on the disobedient, ... "For the wrongdoer will be paid back for whatever wrong he has done, and there is no favoritism." (Colossians 3:5-11, 25) Observation : Whoever has been set free by Christ, whether Jew or Gentile, is now more acutely aware of the destructive nature of what the law forbids, and why God abhors them. He or she is therefore expected to uproot them from his/her system (put them to death, NOT JUST SHOW THE SURFACE LEVEL COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAW). Otherwise, they should expect the same judgment that God visits on those who do them! For, th

FOR BETTER FOR WORSE FOR GOOD

 FOR BETTER FOR WORSE FOR GOOD Your spouse isn't in your life simply to give you blissful days. He or she is in also to improve your character by stretching it to limits no one else can.  Just like change of lesson at school, couples regularly give each other bad days without even intending to. Those are all providential too. That is why every marriage looks nicer from the outside, at least soon as the honeymoon is over. Over time, after you've learnt to trust better and let some things go, you'll understand that you've been forged for greater things.  During the 'difficult lesson' periods, consider first which aspects of your own character is being dealt with, and try and make amends, otherwise, you'll have to do remedials several times over.  You focus also on God's overall goodness to you, and make room to thank Him. Don't let your grumbling steal His honor and praise. He is the one refining us, and though He passes us through fire, He is with us

(Economy African Cereals and Tubers Edition) 1. Gari (roasted milled cassava) ________________________________ Champion - can be prepared to be eaten with soup, stews or sugar. Stores quite well and has earned a lot of respect across West Africa. 2. Kyekyire (milled/powdered roasted dry corn) ________________________________________________ 1st Contender - can be prepared and eaten with sugar, soup or stews. Is usually in contention with tom-brown (which is not locally produced). Significantly durable, but usually priced higher than gari. 3. Akple (milled/powdered dry corn) _____________________________________ 2nd Contender - can be prepared to be eaten with soups, stews or sugar, but may need regular drying to stay healthy. People prefer to keep dry corn to transform into Kyekyire or konkonte as the need arises. 4. Kokonte (milled/powdered dry cassava) ___________________________________________ High ranking - to be prepared and eaten with soup or stews, but not
