THE PRELIMINARY DISCOURSE: BURDEN OF HUMAN NATURE

    
  πŸ‘‘ *ZION PERFECT MORALITY* πŸ‘‘

(The LORD'S APOSTLE Of Zionist Kingdom VISION, MISSION & DIVINE MANDATE @ ZION With Kingdom University Missionary Education & Worldwide Kingdom Ministries @ Zion Of Jerusalem Above)


+THE PRELIMINARY DISCOURSE: BURDEN OF HUMAN NATURE+

INTRODUCTION:
MORALITY, For The Purpose Of A Working Definition, Is The Quality That Expresses Standards & Principles Of Good Behaviour. In fact, it refers to a particular system of morals. For example, at times we make a reference to the term, "Christian Morality", which implies a standard that measures up to the requirements of Christian Moral Code Of Conduct.

Similarly, in Philosophy, the Course of Ethics deals comprehensively & exclusively with the study of right & wrong in human behaviour; pointing as it does, to the principles & practice of Morality vis-a-vis Rules, Goodness or Uprightness of Conduct & Virtuous Living. Thus, a Moralist often concerns himself with moral lessons which aim @ teaching morals that impart or inculcate virtuous values culminating in development of sound moral habits in individuals.

MAN'S SINFUL NATURE:
Evidently, it is true that SIN is an inherent ingredient of every human mind & make-up. This means that "everyone was born with a lawless, Sin-prone nature" & of course, we have all sinned. Moreover, the human mind is naturally antagonistic towards God's Law.

The Apostle Paul in his Biblical Gospel Epistle said in Rom. 8 v. 7: "The carnal mind is enmity against GOD: for it is not subject to the Law of God, neither indeed can be". The Holy Scripture says: "The ♥ heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly perverse and corrupt and severely, mortally sick"! (Jeremiah. 17: 9).

Such is God's assessment of the human ♥ heart or mind & before one can ever hope to make any real spiritual progress, that ego-shattering Divine Diagnosis must first be recognized for what it is - THE TRUTH! In fact, the spiritual Mirror God uses to show a sinner his / her condition is His Holy Commandments & those who break them commit SIN.

SIN - the same plain old-fashioned SIN, the selfsame SIN that brought about the downfall of our primordial Parents - Adam & Eve - is exactly what we are all suffering from up till today. So, it will do us far more harm than good to try to dress it up with a fancy, more attractive label. Certainly, we do not need a new word for it. It is SIN! SIN!! SIN!!! What we need, however, is to discover what the word really means. It is of course, the misguided, shortsighted view of SIN that stands in the way of CONVERSION for many people. It is the lack of real understanding of SIN that keeps many Children of God from living the true Christian life. It is not all who talk about SIN that have a clear realization of what it means & it is of supreme importance that we should become acquainted with the Biblical point of view on the doctrine of SIN.

Of course, we may attempt to take light view of SIN & even choose to refer to it as "human weakness". But SIN is not mere human weakness. SIN is SIN! We may try to call it a tragedy. But SIN is SIN! Men πŸ‘¬ would choose to pass it off as an accident, but God declares it is an ABOMINATION. Man seeks to excuse himself of SIN, but God seeks to convict him of it & to save him from SIN. Alleluia!! Amen. Surely, SIN is no amusing TOY - SIN is a TERROR to be shunned.

SIN is something everybody can recognize but no Child of God would like to admire. SIN is the most prevalent Disease in the Universe, it is to be found in every facet of human endeavours. Yet it is the greatest obstruction of the flow of Divine Energy into man. Without getting rid of SIN nobody can get to know God personally. And it is far more beneficial to know God personally than to depend on rumours about GOD handed down by others.

SIN @ its more subtle manifestations is difficult to pinpoint. It is mixed up with social graces, with cultural conventions, even sometimes with good motives.

YOU ARE A SINNER! And YOU know it, don't YOU? YOU have heard it on the πŸ“» RadioπŸš‰ too. Don't YOU? YOU have read it in the πŸ“° Newspapers. Perhaps, your Pastor or Minister, must have told you. Okay you accept that YOU ARE A SINNER, so what? Everybody is a SINNER, there is no real SAINT anywhere! And so what?


Exactly, this is where most people get it wrong. Everybody is no longer a SINNER, all right! Most people around YOU, who YOU know personally well may be SINNERS in the sense of being a total OUTCAST from God. There are even Saints in the world just as there are SINNERS. It is just that the SINNERS are in preponderance in the vast majority. Those who are no longer OUTCASTS took the initiative to approach God, made rapprochement with Him through His Blessed SON, CHRIST De MESSIAH, our Lord & Redeemer. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

Beloved Blessed Kingdom Brethren, YOU will learn about this presently.

First & foremost, I want YOU to understand that SINFULNESS was not the natural estate of man to which man was created.


Secondly, I want YOU to realize that there is no SIN that can remain permanent in the character of a man if the man doesn't want it. Don't be amused by this statement. YOU will be led step by step  to the full realization of its import & full actualization of its generic dynamics. Getting rid of SIN is our business under the Holy Spirit in the Sacred Ministry of our Blessed Lord & Saviour, JESUS CHRIST De MESSIAH YAHSHUAH. 
Alleluia!! Amen.

Next, there is nothing to be proud of in SIN. There is no SINNER ever as great as the most obscure holy man because the former lives a glamorous but painful life, full of regrets, fears & hidden pain. The latter lives a purposeful dynamic life full of JOY, CONTENTMENT, HEALTH & GENERAL WELL-BEING. Because the former dies to face condemnation & eternal perdition whereas the latter dies to be received into ETERNAL FELICITY in the Paradise of GOD. Because the former is afraid to die whereas the latter accept πŸ’€ Death as a Divine Call to Glory & goes Home with JOY to meet the Lord Almighty God. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

Actually, what YOU ought to do NOW is to meditate on the fact that YOU ARE A SINNER & because YOU ARE A SINNER, YOU ARE AN OUTCAST before God & because YOU ARE AN OUTCAST before God all YOUR PRAYERS DO NOT REACH GOD & He does not give YOU special ATTENTION such as He gives to 🏑 His πŸ‘‘ Kingdom πŸ”‘ Saints.

YOU ARE NOT GOOD & YOU know it! What will YOU do about it? YOU have been whoring about & probably with all kinds of 😈 Evil Spirits following YOU about & YOU know it! Don't YOU? What do YOU want to do to free YOURSELF? YOU cannot even have a decent sleep without people or ENEMIES & things pursuing YOU all over the place. Are YOU going to be an underdog forever? GOD Forbid!


I ADVISE YOU, TODAY: I advise YOU to reject YOUR POSITION as the Chief SINNER in town. I advise that YOU withdraw YOURSELF from the crowd of jesters, back-bitters & blasphemers. I advise that YOU desire to part company with harlots, thieves, idolaters, drunkards, etc.

I advise that YOU repent of YOUR SINS. Go on YOUR KNEES NOW & TALK to the Lord Almighty God thru the Mercy & Love of CHRIST De MESSIAH, the Blessed Redeemer of Mankind. CONFESS ALL YOUR SINS to Him & ASK FOR FORGIVENESS. Continue TALKING to Him till YOU hear from Him.

This simple advice of mine if properly taken to the ♥ heart, will be the turning point in YOUR life. All the problems that seems insurmountable will start giving way once YOU earnestly start confessing YOUR SINS to the Blessed Lord & Saviour of the World. It is like magic, the wonders that an earnest CONFESSION & APOLOGY will do to YOUR precious Soul. Just try it honestly for about a week or two & YOU will have a REPORT to make. Till that very day & moment, I sincerely commend YOU to the Holy Care & Protection of The Blessed Saviour of Mankind, Lord CHRIST De MESSIAH, in 😍 Love & Grace.
 Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The Highest!

Beloved Blessed Kingdom Brethren @ ZION, that's how YOUR NEW BIRTH begins. That's how YOUR SANCTIFICATION begins. It begins with "YOUR REPENTANCE & FAITH In Almighty God Thru CHRIST De MESSIAH & Proceeds Unto Holiness Of Life".

Holiness is that perfect renewal of our nature that makes us essentially good, so that we continually bring forth fruit unto God - "The Fruit Of The Spirit", which is Love, Joy, Peace, Long-suffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness, Temperance", etc. (Gal. 5: 22-23) & with never a work of the flesh grafted in among this 🏑 Heavenly fruitage.

YOU can be BORN AGAIN! And YOU can have YOUR Biblical Consecration or Christian Holiness. This consists of putting off of YOUR own WILL, YOUR DISPOSITION, TEMPER, DESIRES, LIKES & DISLIKES. In short, Perfect Consecration is a putting off SELF & a putting on CHRIST De MESSIAH; a giving up YOUR own WILL in all THINGS & receiving THE HOLY WILL Of The Lord & Saviour, CHRIST De MESSIAH instead, to God's Glory & by His 🏑 Grace. Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

Our Blessed Lord CHRIST De MESSIAH worked on His Apostles towards Sanctification Unto Holiness Of Life & even prayed that The Heavenly Father should sanctify them. It was after they had become sanctified that The Heavenly Father of "All Ableness & Power" released His Holy Spirit on them in the πŸ”₯ fiery Baptism of Cloven Tongue.

"Sanctify Them Through Thy Truth" (John 17: 17) is a very deep Prayer by the Lord CHRIST De MESSIAH on behalf of His Apostles.

 Enlighten Them In Thy Truth. Bring Them To Understand Thy Truth. Bring Them To See Themselves In Thy Truth. Inspire Them To Love Thy Truth. Move Them To Repent Of Thy Truth, To Part With Their Own Truths, To Part With The Truths Of The World In Preference To Thy Truth. By Embracing Thy Truth & Dropping Their Own Truths, They Will Become Pure, They Will Become Acceptable Unto Thee.

Sanctify Them Through Thy Truth - Discipline Them In Thy Truth, Purge Them In Thy Truth & With Thy Truth; Drill Them In The Practice Of Thy Truth, Impart Into Them The Holiness Of Thy Truth; Make Them Imbibe The Essence Of Thy Truth; Tune Their Consciousness In 😍 Love Of Thy Truth & Let Them Shine πŸ”† Forth In The Lustre Of Thy Truth.
 Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The Highest!

Beloved Blessed Kingdom Brethren & My Favoured ♨ Sparkling Friends @ ZION: If YOU really mean business for ETERNITY, YOU will intelligently & unflinchingly look @ the Divine Straight Gate through which so few ENTER; And YOU tell the Blessed Lord God that YOU want to go through that 🏑 Holy Way, though it cost YOU Your Life, The Holy Spirit Of GOD will show YOU the Way & see YOU through by CHRIST De MESSIAH Who Loved Us In Peace, By His Grace. 
Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna!

Welcome To Our Latest Sacred ♥ PHILOSOPHICAL DIGEST @ ZION With Interesting But Profoundly Impactful Discourse On: "Introduction To Christian Philosophy: A Critical Quest To Prove God's Existence".

Evidently, the reference that Philosophy is the religion of the most intelligent people lends a profound meaning to the business of Philosophy, which essentially consist in the application of REASON & KNOWLEDGE to provide solution to the unfortunate plights or problems otherwise called PROGRAMS, of human life & existence.

The foremost problem (sacred ♥ program) of Philosophy is that which involves the question of REALITY & TRUTH. What actually is the real meaning of life & existence? Why are we here & what is the CAUSE of our existence? Moreover, why is the HEAVEN above & the 🌍 EARTH beneath? Why is the ELEPHANT big & the 🐜 ANT small? What is so wonderful, exciting & overwhelming about the three-letter word called SEX? Why does a young woman πŸ‘©πŸ‘© shudder & melt away when a young πŸ‘¬ man says to her: "I 😍 LOVE U"? Above all & beyond all, who brought about the existence of these things, if any? In fact, these & several other similar questions find themselves in the minds of Philosophers. And, this is exactly what makes them Philosophers.

THE QUEST TO PROVE GOD's ESSENTIAL EXISTENCE: Reason demands that we first & foremost consider the question of the CAUSE of all existence, since REALITY is found in the ULTIMATE CAUSE of existence. Therefore, we talk about GOD, HIS EXISTENCE & NATURE. Alleluia!! Amen.

But the title "GOD" always rings a πŸ”” bell among all πŸ‘¬ men - Believers & Unbelievers alike. No doubt, it will interest us to face the music here & today, since this is a Philosophical Discourse. You ask: Who Is GOD? What Is His Proper Name? Where Is He? When Did He Begin Existence & What Is His Nature? WAIT. WAIT! I SAY WAIT!! Haba - Mr Ideal Reader! Stop asking too many questions @ a time! Are we in the Army Barracks @ Zone 9? Why not take it easy? Haba - my dear Reader! Hmm! But excuse me, Mr Reader. What will you give me if, eventually, I answer all your questions accurately & satisfactorily for you? I mean: What will you offer me in return if I end up providing you with adequate & thorough satisfactory answers to all the innumerable questions of yours, today? Perhaps, you would want to assist me, by your 🏑 holy OFFER of ONE Laptop School Equipment, or probably TWO, in Promotion & Development of DEI-ZION Kingdom University Seminary! Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest! Probably, you would want to assist the sacred ♥ University College by your 🏑 welcome SPONSORSHIP of the Sacred ♥ Institution, to God's Glory & by His Grace! 
Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The Highest!

Perhaps, you have made up your blessed mind to do so in order to facilitate the necessary development, progress & prosperity of this unique, Christ-oriented, interesting, pragmatic & academically cum ministerially Theological Seminary Of Dei-Zion Kingdom University College, Worldwide aimed @ the furtherance of the Great Divine Ministries in the hands of His Apostle & Professor cum Reverend Gentleman. 
Alleluia!! Amen.

Certainly, this is wonderful & encouraging, too! Alleluia!! Amen. God bless YOU forever. Yes, YOU will be greatly blessed by the Lord God Almighty, Who we serve with open ♥ heart & sincere mind. YOU will remain blessed forever by "The Most High God Who Reigns In ZION Of Holy Jerusalem": Our Glorious Happy Home! 
Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The Highest!

Before you finally drop your beautiful Laptop or thick envelope, or otherwise @ the Apostle's Feet I want to let you know & understand very well that there is GOD in the Heavens Above & everywhere, too.

Certainly, you are familiar with the title: "GOD". It is the RESONANCE Of DOUBT, doubt whether or not He exists that bothers your mind. In order to be fair to you we might as well look @ your point of view on the issue on ground.

Nevertheless, God Almighty exists; & we know it. Alleluia!! Amen. He, it was, Who is the Maker of Heaven & Earth, Omnipotent, Omnipresent & Omniscient. He is ineffable, impassible, impalpable, impeccable, immutable & immortal. He is GOD because He existed before all things. He is Father because He created all things. He is Almighty because He holds all things. He is Lord because He is Lord over all things. He is The Most High because He is above all things. It was He Who by His invisible Hand & mighty Power & great Wisdom created the Universe; & for His glorious Purpose clothed His creation with comeliness & by His strong Words fixed the Heavens & founded the 🌍 Earth above the waters. The heights of the Heavens & the ends of the Abyss are in His Holy Hands. Alleluia!! Amen. The Heavens do not contain GOD; on the contrary, He contains Them as He contains EVERYTHING visible & invisible. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

All πŸ‘¬ Men in the planet 🌍 Earth are called upon to worship Him Who alone is GOD, alone LORD, alone ALMIGHTY, alone The MOST HIGH, alone Heavenly FATHER, alone CREATOR & SOVEREIGN & alone Contains All Things & Bestows Existence On Them. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna!!

Almighty God & Him alone is the MAKER Of Heavens & Earth; The Master & Demi-urge Of All Things - The Lord Who controls the entire Universe & all Things therein, both visible & invisible - The Lord Who, though invisible, dwells in His creation. Alleluia!! Amen. That's exactly the Great Supernatural, Infinite BEING of immeasurable dynamic Energy, Who, O Mr Ideal Reader, you want me to PROVE His essential Existence.

So, Mr Ideal Reader: You want me to prove there is GOD for YOU before YOU believe Him, "ee-kwa"? All right! Since, we are concerned here with the business of Philosophy & I have taken a decision to embark upon questions connected with it, I shall seriously delve here into such relevant questions of yours.

Evidently, everyone wants to know about GOD's Divine Nature & Existence. Children want to know whether there is GOD or not & where He lives.  Men πŸ‘¬ & women πŸ‘©πŸ‘© want to know about God's very Nature & Existence. And when I enter most intimately into what I call myself, I join the Philosophers to REASON about the REALITY of GOD's Existence. Very Good. In our next strikingly profound & interesting Theological Romance @ ZION, we shall thoroughly & gloriously delve completely into the essential PHILOSOPHICAL DIJEST; whilst I crave for your indulgence & patience to have my LUNCH right NOW, as it's already 3 O'clock @ Noon Hours, Ok. 
Alleluia!!  Amen.

Before then, please, get yourself very strong & set for it's going to be tremendous, exciting, thrilling, inspiring, edifying, totally overwhelming, absolutely interesting, essentially philosophical & radically profound, yet impactful & all-absorbing, to God's Glory & by His 🏑 Grace, as we shall face the awesome music to PROVE THERE IS GOD
Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The Highest!

Amen. Alleluia!!

Dear Blessed & Respected Academia @ ZION - Calvary Greetings To U All, Today. This is a ♨ sparkling, philosophic & sacred ♥ Orientation Course on "The Significant Relevance Of The Divine Business @ ZION".

The fundamental urgency of the need to be saved & after Salvation to dwell in the Blessed Kingdom of God has dictated the syllabus of this Divine Coursework. I solicit for your indulgence to be granted the Grace to make perfectly good & complete the tutorial deficiencies of the sacred ♥ Work in the subsequent tutorial Series, by God's Grace & Love. In case you are a serious aspirant, no matter your denomination or lack of it, have difficulty in understanding any portion of this all-important, Biblical, Theological Work, you should feel happily free & blessed to consult me via my Email or Websites - either by writing, phone or possibly personal contact. 
Alleluia!! Amen.

Indeed, this series of our Tutorial Talk is compiled specifically for the unbelievers & half-backed believers to direct them to the Lord Of The Universe, CHRIST De MESSIAH for Salvation unto Eternal Life, by His Grace. Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The Highest! At best, it is a powerful testimony that Almighty God exists. It seems to straighten & strengthen the Faith of weak Christians & Zionists or Yahwehists & to rekindle their flames of Love & Service for Almighty God & His CHRIST De MESSIAH. It was considerably & carefully prepared for the confused Christians & Zionists to brighten up their understanding. Furthermore, it is written for the complacent Believers, be it Zionist or Christian, to challenge his complacency. For the young enthusiastic Christian & Zionist I want to provide a forum for spiritual growth & maturity in Grace & in the Knowledge of our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ De Messiah Yahshua. Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest! For the up & doing Zionist & Christian I want to provide a barometer to measure the atmospherics of his zeal & attainment along the narrow Way. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

This necessary Tutorial Work is further compiled for offering a great help in clearing the Theological Nonsense or Confusion that has made Belief difficult for philosophers who exercised my intellect, but disappointed my soul by their catholic refusal to engage in empirical sacred search as a sequel to intellectual theorizing. Equally, it is designed for thorough & religious perusal by unbelieving scientists who ridiculed CHRISTIANITY & General Belief in Almighty God even without investigating it scientifically, thus giving me the opportunity to succeed where they failed. To all such unbelieving scientists, here is a πŸ“  dazzling forum for them to catch a glimpse of the fundamental mysteries of the science of authentic CHRISTIANITY & YAHWEHISM. Of course, I do not mean that Christianity has suddenly become scientific overnight, but the fact remains that enough scientists have not become sincerely involved with Christianity, in particular, to know what it is. And the few who were familiar through relentless aspiration with its esoteric & exoteric Truths were not fortunate enough as to have sound education according to worldly standard to communicate their discoveries or afford the opportunity in accurately teaching them scientifically.

Moreover, to the Christian Disciples & Zionists alike, I want to raise a vision of great eternal hopes. I earnestly want them to recognise fully the position of our Blessed Lord Christ De Messiah in the spiritual scheme of things, & teach them how to attain heights in Spirit through & by our Lord Jesus Christ De Messiah Yahshua.

To the Church Leaders of Christianity I want to bring the challenge of continued spiritual self-improvement; & moreover suggest urgent, vital need for accurate understanding of the real meaning of Christianity as opposed to CHRISTENDOM (World Religious Empire By Roman Catholicism) & thus eliminate the spirit of segregation & strife for membership & material gains, which has brought the Christian Church on planet 🌍 earth down to animal plane.

With the provision of this tutorial instrument of the Gospel of Christ De Messiah, I hope in the Grace of God that emphasis of research among Christian & Zionist or Yahwehist Clergy & laity may shift from the study of just History of Church denominations, Sociological Studies, Comparative Religion & Study of Canonical Laws to the more important & greater spiritual utility as well as the more significant & socially relevant hard but beneficial Studies of sacred ♥ Principles concerned with Spiritual Improvement & Development in the Christian cum Zionist contexts. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The  Highest!

FACTS ABOUT MODERN CHRISTIANITY: The ultimate goal of this sacred Business is to afford eternal Salvation to the Souls of individuals. To this end, therefore, much emphasis shall be made on the subject of Salvation & Christian Regeneration otherwise called New Birth.

No doubt, all kinds of Salvation & Christian New Birth or Spiritual Rebirth are being taught by various denominations of CHRISTENDOM. Various teachings on Moral Issues abound nowadays & everywhere. This Coursework is set to identify these moral issues & teach them in a very well planned & practical manner that will enforce proper utilization & application. Indeed, I hope that by timely perusal through the pages of this Tutorial Work, all those who are of the opinion that man does not need to seek Salvation specially will re-examine the premise of their logic whether they are actually sound in the πŸ’‘ light of sacred ♥ Knowledge available to mankind.

Of course the subject of Christian Mysticism is never in my syllabus for this Unit Coursework. Nevertheless, there is no way we can teach Spiritual Development in Christianity without overlapping into the Mystery of God & the Mystery of CHRIST De MESSIAH. Similarly, there is no way we can attempt to establish righteousness without encroaching into the Mystery of the 😈 Devil. We encroach into the Mystery of Iniquity when we wrestle against it. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

Actually, this is not the right place to offer good space for discussing the Principles behind the Mystical Works of our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ De Messiah Yahshua & His Disciples. However, I simply want to mention here that no one can completely separate the Biblical Total Gospel from the Mysteries of God since everything is in one holy continuum.

The simple Gospel has been abused. The natural gift of Sex has been abused. Food & drinks, which God provided to man for bodily nourishment have been abused. Anything can be abused. Be it Gospel or Mysticism - anything can be abused. Nevertheless, the fact that everything has been abused does not imply that everything is lost. God forbid! It does not mean that we must be afraid to look for the essence of Truth wherever Truth can be found. In fact, if we earnestly search for the Truth, we shall find the Truth - whether in the Gospel or in the Mysteries of God. Isn't it a shame to the Christian or Zionist to assign to the 😈 Devil the things that belong to God simply because he doesn't understand? Must we continue to make the mistake of the Jews who accused Lord Jesus Christ De Messiah Yahshua of dealing in Evil Spirits simply because they couldn't understand the Divine Principle by which He casts out devils. God have mercy! 
Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna In The  Highest!

So never you rush to reject or criticize any part of this sacred Work simply because it offers some things against which you had a bias. Instead, make use of the opportunity provided herein to investigate your bias further; whether it was based on facts or rumours conceited out of fright.

This sacred Work is actually a realization of my ambition to research, compile & teach scientific principles of the Religion of Holy CHRISTIANITY. I really thank God for that. Alleluia!! Amen. In this direction, therefore, I am a fanatic for Truth. In the course of this necessary tutorial Sacred ♥ Business, I realized quite early enough that Truth without order is either dangerous or meaningless.

  • The fact is that so many Christians & Zionists know so many Truths without knowing how to interpret them & arrange them to maximum utility. The consequence is so much violent & vain efforts & dissipation of useful energy in window-dressing activities that can be fulfilled without the institution of the Church. 
  • The fact that so much Order is known that ought to be known among the various Truths @ our disposal as Servants of God, & the reason that the process of ascertaining what is & what is not is energy consuming, it becomes imperative that the little that is known should be revealed so that many others can find a background to launch themselves in higher spiritual  exercise & activities. 
Certainly, spiritual development is not a term that can be readily appropriated by Christians or Zionists. They have great advantage over others in that they a prior
acknowledge that their own efforts cannot be enough to quaranttee the best of destiny in the circuit of existence. Alleluia!! Amen. Christians, in particular, in their spiritual quest, seek to develop their inner Powers. They seek Power from outside themselves, namely: God, Who is the Source of Life. They aim @ improving their deficiencies  in order to relate to Him in the osci-center of being & thus smoothen the disharmony engendered by the strains & stresses of 🌍 earthly life. The fundamental Truth is that man needs to be saved & after his Salvation to dwell in the πŸ‘‘ Kingdom of GOD. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The  Highest! 

This is the cause that led to the compilation of this essential Tutorial Sacred ♥ Business @ ZION of Holy Jerusalem: Our Glorious Happy Home Of Blessedness, Eternal Salvation cum Sanctification, Love, Peace, Bliss & Glory, To God's Glory, By His 🏑 Grace.

Alleluia!! Amen.

Inasmuch as you are serious, there is no end to aspiration, there is no end to attainment in the present state of man, that is. Living the  Christian cum Zionist Moral Life as evidence of Eternal Salvation In CHRIST De MESSIAH - that is saying a lot of what this sacred ♥ Tutorial Business is all about!

+THE SPIRITUAL VIRUS OF BRIBERY & CORRUPTION: BRIBERY AS A CAUSE OF DILAPIDATION IN CHRISTIAN ETHICAL STANDARD+
No doubt, all kinds of moral issues abound nowadays & to a reasonable extent taught by various denominations of CHRISTENDOM, today. Surely, πŸ”’ numerous Divine Ministers of various ⛪ Church denominations do well to identify  these moral issues  & teach them  in a well planned  & practical manner that will always enforce proper utilization & application. Yet, hitherto, the simple Gospel has been abused, the principle of righteous living is in our modern πŸ‘ͺ age, less applied than it is taught by the religious teachers. People are claiming to be Children of God but whose names have never been written in the πŸ“– Book of Life. The so-called Christians from diverse religious denominations are moving about telling lies against fellow Christians & their denominations with the aim to reconvert to their own denominations those who have already been converted. People are, indeed, looking for any available means to make ends meet, no matter whether such means stand against the principle of Christian living or not. Many so-called Christians @ CHRISTENDOM have taken to "Bribery" simply because they feel there is no other means of achieve success or meet up with the challenging financial crunch erroneously bitting them. As far as they are concerned, "nothing goes for nothing".They mean: "You use what you have to get what you don't have". So, whenever one is pushed to the wall, & there is no other way for him to escape danger, anything goes - it doesn't matter! After all, according to them, a python does not grow fat unless it swallows any one altogether. Bribery, therefore, provides a measure route of escape from poverty & paves way to easy bread!

In fact, everything can, in our unfortunate contemporary world, be freely abused; & Bribery now stands as a good measure whereby "sinners" in the Church abuse righteousness, vis-a-vis generosity, brotherly love & general human aid by cheerful giving. Hence, the Burden  of Bribery to the peaceful existence of the ⛪ Church - a real Virus that demands qualified spiritual doctor or therapist to provide the needed essential therapy.

CORRUPTION: A CAUSE OF OUR MORAL DECADENCE
Certainly, there is the sin of Corruption wherever there is Bribery. In fact, Bribery & Corruption work in pari-pasu. The reason is simple enough. First & foremost, a mind set on Bribery is already a corrupted mind. Moreover, he that gives Bribery somewhat loses a sense of Virtue as he is taught  or reminded that, @ least in the modern world, benevolence, charity or free Service are no longer tenable. And, this is Corruption @ it's worst capacity.

Take, for instance, the popular relevant story involving the Elder previously mentioned along with a Church Choirmaster in our former Theological Romance. By his immoral act of collecting some money (Bribery) from the Elder in order to release a female chorister to the immoral Elder for their trip to chalet whilst Singing Practice was going on, the irresponsible, deceitful Choirmaster proves himself a sinner in the Church & a carnal & worldly Church worker of the highest order. It stands to reason, doesn't it, that in a Church that has such kind of Elder & choirmaster as leaders is bound to collapse, spiritually, morally, numerically & otherwise? The answer is simple! O yes! In most cases such Church workers will do worst by encouraging others to practise the same; & moreover go extra miles in covering such sins in the Church. Thus,  they could not afford to stand boldly to correct the young & erring brethren therein, because of the pricks of their conscience.

Nowadays, immoral girls in the name of believing Sisters abound in the ⛪ Church, quite eager to entice the young Pastor to marry them or lure him into immoral dealing with them. Sometimes, they attempt to achieve the goal by indescent πŸ‘— dressing & jezebelic paintings. In case such girls eventually succeed in hooking the same Pastor and dragging him to the altar, the danger is there that they won't cease to pull down the Pastor to the animal plane & eventually ruin his life & ministry. They are merely devil-incarnates, πŸ’ lovers of money & killers of Servants of God. No wonder the Holy Scriptures urge that Servants of God should beware. All those agents of darkness along with their deceived sinners in the Church constitute the Virus in the Church. We must, therefore, beware!

At this juncture, let's have a good review of "The Effects Of Bribery & Corruption In Dilapidation Of Our Contemporary Moral Standards. Evidently, people do not know that one disease that is more devastating than AIDS. For the fact that the nations, Nigeria for example, have learned to live with it & dwell in ascribing its consequences to other factors, most people do not know or probably under-estimate the potential of Corruption. Corruption causes vast sums of πŸ’° money to be misallocated by public officials to white elephant properties. Funds which would have been channeled into 🚧 construction of new Schools, πŸ₯ Hospitals & Institutions that would serve the most interest is in the kick-backs. In fact, Corruption has a vast negative influence, not just on our spiritual & moral well-being, but amply relegates our social well-being, physical, political & economic developments to the background.

Obviously, many people die daily due to the bad condition of our roads. We're these roads not credited all right by Site Engineers? Can you imagine how man people in our modern πŸ‘ͺ society die daily in Hospitals & their homes due to unavailability of drugs or adulterated drugs? Do you know that mass poverty afflcting over a πŸ’― hundred million people in the Third World have been occasioned misappropriation of funds by only few people?

That is not all. Corruption erodes the potential benefits of free market enterprise. Corruption deters away investors. Nobody wants to invest in an economy where you are not sure of their accountability. Aside from the πŸ˜” sad effects on the micro & macro-economy, Corruption cheapens. Because of Corruption some economies, such as ours in Nigeria, our great society has been labelled as a typical leading Corruption-riden nation. O God save His people! Most African Nations are treated shabbily @ the various entry points of other civilized nations. Some people are almost stripped naked with a view to checking whether they carry drugs or other banned materials.

The political consequences of widespread Corruption, while less quantifiable, are no less real. Corruption contributes to a loss of confidence in the Government, be it political, administrative, social or ecclesiastical & a general non-compliance with laws undermines the legitimacy of elected officers & democratic values, diminishes the effectiveness of public policy & impairs the power of public institutions. Indeed, political fallout from Corruption creates a vicious circle of Corruption, instability, weak institutions & even extra Corruption.

The consequences of our contact with Corruption have been negative, in fact, "disastrous" because it is "emasculating".
We have, unfortunately, lost that self-confidence that generated both initiative & creativity in our land as is evident in the cultural & developmental achievements of our past leaders who lived before the appearance of autocratic political system of modern Government in our erring societies, today.

What really could @ best work to afford meaningful & lasting remedial solution to the unfortunate plight of menacing trends of Corruption in our modern societies? The right answer should @ best be the sacred ♥ great Ministry of the ⛪ Church of God in the contemporary CHRISTENDOM, but there is also a high scale Corruption in the ⛪ Church @ CHRISTENDOM - the horrible Spiritual Virus @ ♋ high cankerworm order.

O God Save His Blessed πŸ‘‘ Kingdom Brethren @ ZION & The Favoured Associates Of God's πŸ‘‘ Kingdom In This Corrupt & Evil World! Amen.
Alleluia!! Hosanna! 

Shalom!!

Our interesting, exciting & thrilling Moral Discourse today is on "The Relevant Vital Issues About Love In The Martial Circle".
Previously, we had a revelation of some of my observations along with the facts & information, which I obtained from my carefully organized but informal Interview conducted on a vital aspect of Morality. Mind, therefore, as I unfold few necessary things about the powerful four letter word called LOVE - Love in the martial circle. Of course, this Lecture is exclusively designed for morally disciplined adults, not immature immoral youths without the Grace of Christ De Messiah. So, let the morally weak youths excuse us until they grow to adulthood. So Be It!

Beloved Blessed Kingdom Brethren & My Mature Sparkling Darling Friends @ Zion: Welcome To Your Special Lecture @ Zion Of Holy Jerusalem: Our Happy Home Of Divine Holiness, Blessedness, Moral Perfection cum Discipline, Eternal Salvation, Peace, Bliss & Glory, To His Glory, By His Grace. 
Alleluia!! Amen.

No doubt, the age @ which a woman first finds herself in Love has a major influence on her behaviour. We know, certainly, that falling in Love can occur @ any age. Admittedly, youthful infatuation is likely to become confused with genuine Love. Young girls are so often in Love with the idea of falling in Love. Although some of the greatest literature recognize & treat such as "young Love"; in real life it is relegated to romantic fantasy. Certainly, young Love is rash. Its bewildering & lack of emotional maturity makes it difficult for the girl to cope with the strength of feeling involved.

Of course, Love provides a reason for Sex, where before there has been no other reason apart from curiosity & the fact that "every one else is doing it". But is everyone really doing it? Some interviewees spoke of sexual experience as being without desire.

The physical excitement was there & for some that was sufficient, but the more sensitive the girl, the less likely she was to be satisfied with physical sensations alone.

Mrs. Chinyere was twenty-seven when she got married. When interviewed she had this to say: "The fact that I desired him for his own sake was important to me. I actually wanted to get to the bed with him before he made any move towards me. In fact, I was overwhelmed by this marvelous sensation because I had never known what it was to desire someone. Eventually we made Love. I had never had an orgasm & I didn't experience it @ first time with him yet I was satisfied. By this time I was aware of the fact that women did have a climax, but I had no idea what it might be like. The first time that it happened I was shocked because I never thought that one sensation could so take over one's entire being. For the first time I was lost in someone else. I felt as if my mind & my body, which had always seemed completely separate entities, suddenly fused & become as one. Then it was as if this whole abstract thing which was me turned into a sort of liquid, something pure like liquid gold, flowing into this person until he too brimmed over with my Love. Apparently, I wanted to eat him alive. I adorned him & I am sure that this fact strengthened the intensity of the orgasm".

Love provoked an entirely new experience for these women, Sex became a celebration rather than an act unto itself; & their sensitive accounts show them to have been granted a further maturity, rather than having been struct with what their elders are so fond of calling "fanciful notions".

Another lucid quotation further illustrates the connection between first Love & emotional growth.

  • Now with a comfortable home & equally comfortable marriage, Agnes, a fourty-five year old woman, relates her own experience: "Talking to a friend the other day I was reminded of how lucky I have been. My friend was saying that she had never been in Love. She is married & feels affectionate towards her husband who she usually call a pet name: "huzzy", yet she freely admits that she had never been in Love with him nor any one else. I, myself, love my "huzzy" very much. It is requited & therefore a happy Love. Yet, my thoughts often wander to the first time that I fell in Love. I know that what I have now is not quite the same nor can I expect it to be. I suspect that every woman remembers her first Love as being particularly special. Like most women, I was fond of reading Romance Literature. I would indulge myself in dreams of handsome strangers sweeping me off to some far away utopia. In reality, I would assess each new friend & wait to fall in Love with him. In fact, it wasn't until I had outgrown this stage & become involved with activities which sublimated these young amorous desires that it actually happened to me. I literarilly "fell" in Love. To all those writers of romantic novels whose heroines suddenly become mad in Love, I say rubbish! Falling in Love is a gradual process. As it takes time for a flower to unfold, so it takes time to fall in Love. The realization that I was in Love was certainly sudden, but I was aware that this realization was the result of a relationship which had been growing towards this point for some time. Being in Love for the first time is a period of my life which will always remain clear & complete in my memory. My naivety was indescribable. No one could have been less subtle. Once it really hit me that I was in Love with someone who was in Love with me, I just hit an all-time ecstacy of happiness. Looking back, I can see that I must have been a source of amusement to my partner. I think that the mistake one makes with one's first Love is that one suffocates Love in its wonder". 
She continued: "But it is almost inevitable because it is so wonderful, or @ least I found it so. There was no need for food, or drink or money or anything except him & talking into the small hours, making Love & talking some more & falling asleep all entwined. He provided my senses with their fill. Not being with him was a constant wish to be with him. Being with him was a constant wish for him not to go away. Walking along the street knowing it showed; this Love which danced in front of us, & touched passers-by so that they smiled & remembered what it had been with them & how it ended abruptly. Because we were young we would do some crazy things since Love makes you disregard convention. Love isolates & protects so that the approval of others becomes a joke. We would laugh together because people thought us crazy. We were terribly conceited but that didn't matter so much to us. But first Love is ephemeral & has to end, unless it springs from religious background".

Really, such Love that never ends nor fades because it springs from religious background we call "True Christian Love".
 Alleluia! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!
"Sometimes", she concluded, "I imagine that I am a girl from a certain remote sacred town where morality is very strong, and that I have just married & have been released from this strict code". Funny, isn't it?

In fact, observation shows that if a couple makes marital Love successfully, that is to the physical & emotional satisfaction of both; they have created a bond which facilitates communication @ all levels. Of course, one can always dispute whether one is putting the cart before the horse. It is far too black & white to state that a good sexual relationship means that other aspects of the relationship will necessarily follow suit. From a different standpoint the reverse should as well be true.

For Almighty God, The Maker of Heavens & Earth & Creator of Mankind Who directs, remotes & governs the Universe that He wonderfully & beautifully created is awesome, wonderful, ineffable, impeccable, impalpable, impassible, omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent & immortal: The LORD Who by His invisible Hand & mighty Power controls the entire Universe & for His glorious purpose fixed the Heavens & founded the Earth above the waters. He alone is GOD, alone LORD, alone Almighty, alone Father, alone The Most High, alone Creator & alone bestows existence on them, being The Master & Demi-urge of all things. He created man to His Glory & woman to man's glory, offering unto them natural gift of Sex, to His Glory, by His Grace & whilst He blessed them He instituted the marital union for a cordial & fulfilled life, increase & development. Man, himself, owe it to Almighty God to honour Him & faithfully serve Him while giving Him the Glory & Honour in all things. 
Alleluia!! Amen. Hosanna In The Highest!

To Almighty God, The Lord Of Heavens & Earth be the Glory, Honour, Blessings, Wisdom, Thanksgiving, Power & Dominion from everlasting to everlasting thru CHRIST De MESSIAH Who loved us in Peace, by His Grace & Who comes again, soonest, to take us to paradisal Home of Blessedness, Eternal Salvation cum Sanctification, Peace, Bliss & Glory, to His Glory, by His Grace @ Zion of Holy Jerusalem. Alleluia!! Amen.


O LORD, Let Thy Kingdom Come In BIAFRA @ ZION. Thy Will Be Done On Earth As It Is In Heaven. O Come, Lord Jesus Christ De Messiah Yahshua.
 Amen & Amen. Alleluia!! Hosanna!
  Shalom To U All!
