C. S. Lewis compared humankind to small children living in the slums and making mud castles; and refusing to go to the beach for they couldn't imagine a water body so large and sand so plentiful. He was talking about how man gets satisfied with mediocre and silly things when God has more to offer. He believed that the end of man and all being is the glory of God.                               I too believe so and I'll do my literary mentor proud by comparing the Ghanaian Church to a drowning man who is crying because his new shoes are wet.

Wild but True Thoughts

Just some thoughts. 1. God can do whatever He damn well pleases and He damn well can damn all if He damn well pleases. 2.

Get Yourself Out.

Based on Genesis 12.1-5, the children of Nazareth Baptist Church, Santa Maria here in Accra, Ghana learn about what it means to believe. They get to know that believe isn't just an intellectual assent but a behavorial conformity. They are also taught that Abram believed God (Gen 15.6) and his believe led him to obey. Man can say 'I believe, I have faith, I trust in, I rely on' as many times as he can but as long as he doesn't change his actions he's a liar. The evidence that you believe is to obey. The evidence that you are saved is to follow. Apart from making my children memorise Gen 15.6 - "and Abram believed God," I also made them memorise "the only way to show you believe is to obey." I am sick of the form of Christianity that teaches children to be just morally upright and forgets to tell them that God isn't pleased with morally upright people, but rather He's only pleased with blood bought sinners. Its not enough to just tell th...
