Why I write
I write to inform, to share in the joys of living, and to promote quality living.
My philosophy in life
Live to the fullest possible, remember the LORD while you can, and lift someone up.
My upbringing
My mother and father were born-again Christians, loving parents who provided in every way possible for my upbringing and invested in my education. When I was getting married both stood by us and showed us they cared. The greatest inheritance I received from my dad was a good education.
My favorite thought
It is only a matter of time, we shall be out of this world and in the presence of God. It is written, it must be true. There are myriads of witnesses, it must be very serious. Therefore, if I have to lose anything let it be the things of this world rather than eternity with God.
Regret in life
I wish I accepted Jesus earlier and learned about the love of God I now know. The only way I would have known was if I had people who challenged me to believe the way I now know how to. I wish I had people who taught me to pray and fast and to be disciplined in my prayer life throughout my life.
Philosophy of faith
I believe there is only one pillar or anchor in the Christian faith: Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who lived and died at Calvary. His blood atones for my sins. His forgiveness is acceptable to God for my salvation. I believe He is coming soon to complete His plan of salvation and for the entire Universe.
Accepting Jesus as personal Savior is the only way to receive pardon for sin. Without Jesus man is lost without any possibility of another savior.
I like to think of 4 pillars to support growth in the Christian faith:
a. Prayer: in all seasons to pray and where necessary pray and fast
b. Study of God's Word in a regular and systematic way
c. Fellowship (Gathering together in the name of The Lord)
d. Witnessing: Giving our testimony to others about what Jesus has done for us.
The Priesthood of believers
I believe all believers are priests unto the LORD Jesus Christ. The anointing of His word rests on every true believer to lead others to Christ. Within the body of Christ are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. There are numerous gifts and offices ordained for the extension of His Kingdom on earth.
Holy Spirit Baptism necessary
Baptism in the Holy Spirit is necessary for power to witness and power to serve.
