By these words above Christ does not teach that mourning in itself has power to remove the guilt of sin. He gives no sanction to pretense or to voluntary humility. The mourning of which He speaks does not consist in melancholy and lamentation. While we sorrow on account of sin, we are to rejoice in the special privilege of being children of God. We often sorrow because our evil deeds brings unpleasant consequences to ourselves; but this is not repentance. Real sorrow for sin is the result of the working of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit reveals the gratitude of the heart that has slighted and grieved the Saviour, and brings us in contrition to the foot of the cross. By every sin Jesus is wounded afresh; and we look upon Him whom we have pierced, we mourn for the sins that has brought anguish upon Him (Jesus). Such mourning will lead to the renunciation of sin. The people of the world out of ignorance and darkness of their hearts may pronounce this sorrow a weakness; but it is the st...

How can a man be pregnant? This is so surprising to me. But the world is becoming more and more scary these days. A lot of new sickness and diseases manifesting day by day. I stumbled upon the news on CCTV So I have to relate it with you. God help this world. Another thing we should note is that the Bible is real and true to the later. Jesus Christ envisioned this calamity coming upon the world more than 2000 years ago and prophesied about ("For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. [6] And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. [7] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and PESTILENCES, and earthquakes, in divers places. [8] All these are the beginning of sorrows. " Matthew 24:5-8 KJV). A man whose life was made a misery by a giant tumor in his abdomen for nearly a decade has fin...

Having gone through some national news papers and on the Internet, I see and read a lot concerning the uprising of the Fulani herdsman's evil games and the blame game. Although the act of the Fulani's herdsman is despicable but, who are we to blame exactly? Is it Mr President or the Governor of the states where this mayhem is taking place? To me I don't think Mr President is to be blamed that much. I know exactly what virtually everyone of us want, that's for Mr President to make open condemnation of the act by those groups. This I know is yet to be done by PMB. And if he has done it, am yet to to be aware. Some are even claiming the reason some of the governors are keeping mute and doing nothing is because PMB is a Fulani. If that's true should it now stop the governors for defending their states? This is uncalled for. If that is the them our some of our governors does not understand what it takes to be a governor. It means they are not their to serve the people b...

I am so surprised that this particular issue in Kaduna State of Nigeria is still ongoing, that the governor of Kaduna State is bent on initiating a law to license pastors and Muslim clerics. I think this is just a form of silencing our freedom of speech in the nation. This bill is at variance with Section 38 of the 1999 Constitution which presupposes that every Nigerian has a right or freedom of thought, conscience and religion and a right to change religion. Why is Elrufai so keen on this form of law that will cause mayhem, hatred and religious grievances. What will this kind of law do to us? Will it put food on the table of her citizenry or is will it yield revenue to to Kaduna State. The problem is that many of those in government are still keeping quiet until this bill is passed into law. And when passed into law, it starts giving birth to different kind of troubles. High points of the bill is below, you can read at least to have idea of what am talking about here; From ...

I woke up this morning, picked up my phone to get on the Internet and get what is trending around the world. But to my greatest astonishment it was a thunderbolt in my heart when I got the headlines news From CNN and blog sites; What....Will Smith, former SAINTS PLAYER and wife shot dead! Not even sparing the wife at least. But how could one just be so despicable to snuff life out of his/her fellow human being. This is life of a human you have cut off from the face of the earth and not animal. Even killing an animal is difficult at times. Men can be so wicked like the devil. No wonder the Bible says, "And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. [6] And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. [7] And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and t...

I was kind of sceptical about the new development of having our laws on the website until I read about it on the vanguard website . If that is the case, then we are on the verge of becoming a great nation. The Lagos State Government today (10th of April, 2016) announced the launch of an online platform where the public, lawyers etc can all have access to the laws of the State. It would be recalled that the State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode at the launch of 2015 Revised Laws of the state recently, tasked the Ministry of Justice and Law Reforms Commission of the state to work towards making the laws of the state available online for easy access. Governor Ambode, who announced that the hard back copies of the Laws would be complimented with an online digital version in conformity with modern day trends, said the decision became imperative owing to the need to encourage easy access to the state laws, especially by investors on the legal framework available to invest in the state t...

Perusing through the Internet today I stumbled upon what baffles me as a Christian on the Japanese News Site actually I see it as a sign of the end times just like the Bible prophecies but some might not see it that way considering our beliefs differs. Even though it is wonders of technology which is good and makes life easier and less stressful. Now what am I talking about here, the news that Japanese government is coming with a test system in which foreign tourists will be able to verify their identities and buy things at stores using only their fingerprints. Do you wonder when this is commencing? it is this summer. I have been hearing this but have been waiting for it to begin. Now the test has come. The purpose of this is to promote increase in foreign tourists in Japan and as well to use it to prevent crime and relieve users from the necessity of carrying cash or credit cards. It aims to realize the system by the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games. The exercise will hav...

The much awaited Ntel 4g network has now been activated. After keeping those interested and curious about this network in suspense, it was announced this morning by Ntel on their facebook wall . I have been longing and thirsting for this network myself because of the 4g platform. Going by their information, it was gathered that the network is only available in Lagos and Abuja for now. One more thing is that the information of where about to get the numbers reserved by her potential customers is yet to be communicated to all. I am still keeping tabs on them, just check back for the updates here.

A military spokesman said Khalid al-Barnawi was captured in Lokoja, capital of the central state of Kogi. The US had placed a $5m (£3.5m) bounty on his head after branding him one of three Nigerian "specially designated global terrorists" in 2012. Ansaru is a splinter group of Nigeria's largest jihadist group, Boko Haram, known for kidnapping foreigners. Ideologically aligned to al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, it is also accused of killing a number of Westerners. Ansaru said it carried out an attack on a maximum security prison in the Nigerian capital Abuja in 2012, freeing dozens of inmates. "Security agents made a breakthrough on Friday in the fight against terrorism by arresting Khalid al-Barnawi, the leader of Ansaru terrorist group in Lokoja," military spokesman Brigadier General Rabe Abubakar said. "He is among those on top of the list of our wanted terrorists." Source

U.S. President Barack Obama urged world leaders on Friday to do more to safeguard nuclear facilities to prevent “madmen” from groups like Islamic State from getting their hands on a nuclear weapon or a radioactive “dirty bomb.” Speaking at a nuclear security summit in Washington, Obama said there was a persistent and evolving threat of nuclear terrorism despite progress in reducing such risks. But he insisted: “We cannot be complacent.” Obama said no group had succeeded in obtaining bomb material but that al Qaeda had long sought them and cited actions by Islamic State militants behind recent attacks in Paris and Brussels that raised similar concerns. “There is no doubt that if these madmen ever got their hands on a nuclear bomb or nuclear material, they would certainly use it to kill as many innocent people as possible,” he said. “It would change our world.” Obama was hosting more than 50 world leaders for his fourth and final summit focused on efforts to lock down vulnerable a...
