WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS WITH COVID-19 BUT WE KNOW GOD HOLDS THE FUTURE. PRAYERS ONLY WORK WHEN WE TRUST, NOT TEST GOD BY STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. HOLD ON TO GOD'S UNCHANGING HAND. STAY SAFE MY FRIENDS, BE SAFE.

This is the New Testament age. God's glory and agenda will NOT be "enhanced" through evil (Romans 3:7-8). See bottom of page for Online Bible. Eat 1 Peter 4:11 as your spiritual meal with James 3:1 for dessert.

Daily Goal

"Practice Makes Progress." - Abraham Inetianbor

Welcome

I am a Sinner and I HAVE a Savior (1 John 4:4 , 2 Timothy 1:12) who is also my advocate. He keeps me clean and holy (1 John 2:1) and His name is Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:21). If you are a sinner in NEED of a Savior (Mark 16:16) and you are tired of being short of His glory (Romans 3:23), CLICK HERE or go watch VIDEO #7 on my video page. Stay blessed my friends.

Bishops / Elders / Shepherds

ALL Children of the "Chief Shepherd" (Jesus) are believers (1 Peter 5:4 , Galatians 3:26 , 1 John 3:1). They are Christians because they accepted His love (John 3:1-16). His children are not perfect and always get purged, cleansed or pruned (John 15:2). However, they are believing children because they remain IN His love (John 15:5).

POLITICS and the CHURCH

The ONLY God's country on earth is His Church (1 Peter 2:9-10) and NOT physically limited (Acts 17:5-9). Anyone who claims otherwise is either a liar or simply does not know the truth. The old testament structure of government was a physical Israel where God "appointed" kings. The New Testament structure is spiritual and Jesus is the once and for all King. He rules over His kingdom - the Church. Respect your various government authorities like you would any human being. Do not become the "devil's advocate" by sweeping evil under the rug in the name of party loyalty or false freedom.

Christianity

Christianity is more than just calling on God's name. Christians make up the Church NOT a cult. Our loyalty is to God NOT to political parties, friends, families and affiliations. Sin comes easy and without guilt when we are slaves to sin (Romans 6:20-23). When you become a slave of righteousness, you start looking for ways NOT to sin. When you sin, which you always will as humans, you show remorse NOT excuses because Christianity is a way of life; not a title.

Recommended Verse

Apostle Paul to the Galatians: "Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?" Galatians 4:16

Mindset

Not everything is a one way street. Some topics are like a pendulum; avoid extremism in such cases and find a balance. Share God's Word with the INTENTION to save, NOT for ATTENTION or praise. Why? It's simple: We DON'T own God's Truth and there is no shame in learning - 2 Timothy 2:15.

Need a Church?

See LINKS page for directory. Find a church (group of Christians) based on the proximity to God's word and NOT the building's proximity to your house. Having both is a blessing.

It is very easy to feel isolated like a seed planted in the ground. The seed sees only darkness but with time and care, it springs up into the light. It blossom and looks much better than just a planted seed. The darkness you see around you right now is like being planted. If you ALLOW the word of God to nature you through these times, you are bound to see the light soon, then you will grow and become better than ever (2 Peter 3:18). There is ONLY one positive change that can negate darkness; it's called LIGHT.

 We have a friend and Savior that does not only bear our sins; He also bears our GRIEF. Just like the song says, it's a PRIVILEGE for us to be able to carry everything (including COVID-19) to the almighty God in prayer. We are humans and we occasionally get depressed about certain situation. The burden can sometimes be overwhelming and Jesus knows this as well. He said to put it all on Him and let it go (Matthew 11:29). B R R R E E E A A A T H , smile and take it one day at a time. Life becomes less complicated when we realize how sweet it is to trust in Jesus by taking him at his word.

 A tiny sharp razor blade is not for cutting down big trees and a big strong ax is not for shaving or cutting your hair. We all have unique abilities and roles to play in life in general. There's no better time than now to do the best we can and leave the rest to God. This is not the time to be a "tough guy" or to use the "blood of Jesus" in vain. It's OK to be EMOTIONAL during tough times without forgetting about the power of God to get you through it. Remember that Jesus WEPT during a devastating situation but he also did not forget to RELY on the power of God to raise Lazarus from the dead (John 11:35-44). Jesus is NOT weak and you are NOT "weak" for showing emotions or being human. People can be rude to you by calling you "weak" or "scared" simply because you show emotions or do the right thing, but being rude does not make them "tough" or "strong" either. Do what is right in the eyes of God even if it makes you look physically weak.  
Abraham Inetianbor on COVID-19
We don't know what the future holds with Covid-19 but we know God holds the future and this will soon pass away. Prayers only work when we TRUST, NOT TEST God by standing in the middle of the highway. Life is full of up and downs because NO CONDITION is permanent. Things can and will always change for better or worse. The only sure thing in life is to HOLD on to God's unchanging hand (Hebrew 13:5-6). It is well with your soul. Stay blessed, stay safe and stay healthy my friends.
