Come, see a man... - Mar 6, 2013 - 11:54:52 PM
 John.4: 29. Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
The
Samaritan woman at the well was very religious, but fate would have it
that on this particular day her religion / religious beliefs would be
abruptly dashed to pieces as she would have a personal encounter with
Yahshua Messiah.
Here’s a classic example of the result in
having a personal encounter with The Messiah: “John.4: 28. The woman
then left her water pot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the
men

Let the Church say “Amen” - Feb 13, 2013 - 12:10:49 PM
The Church (The
ekklesia, ek-klay-see'-ah); Not the building / structure that’s owned by
a Religious Leader or a denomination; but rather the called-out saints,
a community of discipline believers (disciples) that will boldly say
“Amen” to that which God / Yahweh has said and is doing.
When
you say “Amen” in a service you’re actually saying “So be it, or so let
it be” in other words you’re coming into agreement with what has been
said. I’ve sat in services where the speaker spoke a whole bunch of
nonsense that by no stretch of the imagination lines up with God’s word
and then asked the church “Can you say Amen?” and guess what the people
said? That’s right, they said “Amen”

Bahamas Christian Council owes an apology to Commissioner Greenslade - Jan 24, 2013 - 8:55:06 PM
I would like to address the despicable
and most disrespectful comments levied toward an outstanding Commissioner of
Police; by those of who should know better due to the office they presently
hold as members of The Bahamas Christian Council.
How
is it, that all it took was a simple Gambling Referendum to bring out a dog-like attitude and behavior of the supposedly LOVING, CARING, COMPASSIONATE, LONG-SUFFERING,
Christian Council; to the point that they’ve even gone as far as to try and belittle
the office and function of the Police Commissioner?
I
say to the ill-informed members of the Bahamas Christian Council
“The Bahamas
is still a country of democracy.” Every citizen has the lawful right to

Stay Focused - Jan 22, 2013 - 9:35:42 PM
Here’s
a truth / fact that not even you can deny!
If you’re not a focused person on and to your assignment /s no matter how
educated or anointed you are; you won’t get very far in what you’re doing.
The
greatest enemy to you being focused is call “DISTRACTION” and there are two facets

the very same thing in common and that’s the ability to distract.

It's Here! - Jan 10, 2013 - 6:56:44 PM
One
of my favorite songs is sang by the late great Sam Cooke
“A Change is Gonna Come” As
you’re reading this article and we’re embarking upon a brand New Year
(2013).
If you don’t know by now; I

“Your

Yes!
2013, is here; whether you’re ready for it or not, It’s here. And it’s
imperative that you make the necessary changes and adjustments in your ways of
living and thinking, if you’re looking forward to having / experiencing a
better year than last year (2012); that’s both spiritually and naturally.

The tradition of Christmas - Dec 23, 2012 - 12:48:48 AM
The
word Christmas itself and the erroneous religious teachings thereof has
painted such an indelible picture in the minds and hearts of many that
claims to know and worship God (Yahweh). The danger with
today’s Christmas teaching is that despite the fact; the bible / the
word of God doesn’t support such teachings; religious leaders both far
and wide takes great delight in preaching / teaching their Christmas
messages.
Most
church-folks / religious-minded folks really don’t care about knowing
the truth, especially when such truth is going to disrupt and expose
their religious / traditional beliefs which they hold dear to their

When God / Yahweh Speaks - Oct 31, 2012 - 1:02:55 PM
The
most popular sayings among today’s church leadership in order to mesmerize their
followers is “The Lord told me, or The Holy Spirit just said to me” I’m
often left asking the question “Do these Religious Leaders really know how
dangerous it is to tell lies in God’s name?”
Here’s
what most church leaders failed to relies!
They’re constantly opening doors for the enemy / Satan to gain access
into the affairs of their lives and ministries when they start prophet-lying.
In
most cases, it’s normally during the height of a church service when the
atmosphere is emotionally charged that the religious leaders in seeking to...

Dogs Don’t Bark at Parked Cars - Oct 3, 2012 - 11:17:02 PM
There’s a popular Bahamian secular song
entitled “Dogs don’t bark at park cars” as a Kingdom Minded Citizen,
when listening to this song one can very easily see or hear the
scripture being clearly laid out.
Please note: I did say “Kingdom
Minded” as there’s a great distinction between that of a “Kingdom
Minded Citizen” and a Religious Minded Church-Folk.
It’s a proven fact that dogs don’t bark at
parked cars, and it is clear to see or understand that the writer and
singer of the song was not literally singing about dogs, but rather
about the dog like character / behavior of most people; likewise as in
most cases when dog in mentioned in the bible...

The Church - Sep 12, 2012 - 1:33:16 PM
In today’s society due to erroneous religious teachings and beliefs, when one hears the word CHURCH, one of the very first things that come to mind is that of a building, an edifice or some sort of structure. Notwithstanding that when Yahshua Messiah (a.k.a. Jesus the Christ) made mention of church (Matt.16:18) by no means was He referring to an edifice or some building structure.
In the Greek the word Church is: Ekklesia, Ek-klay-see'-ah; which means (1) a calling out / a popular meeting, (2) congregation, (3) a community of members on earth or saints in heaven or both...

When I see the blood - Aug 22, 2012 - 11:48:37 PM
And Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron:
Ex.12: 13. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses
where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the
plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of
Egypt.
And Moses spoke to the elders / leaders of Israel:
: 23. For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when
he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD
will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in
unto your houses to smite you...

The Authentic & The Counterfeit - Aug 11, 2012 - 10:43:39 AM
KJV: 1John. 4:1.
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are
of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
NLT:
1John.4:1. Dear friends, do not believe everyone who claims to speak
by the Spirit. You must test them to see if the spirit they have comes
from God. For there are many false prophets in the world.
Despite
the fact that the bible speaks clearly to and about false prophets in
both The Old and The New Testaments today’s religious church with open

Purpose of the blessing - Aug 2, 2012 - 2:37:48 PM
Gen.12: 2. And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless
thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
This word blessing in the Hebrew is: Berakah, ber-aw-kaw'; which has
several meanings such as (1) benediction; (2) prosperity, (3) liberal,
(4) pool, (5) present.
The erroneous preconceived ideas of the BLESSING can and has caused many
within the household of faith / the church to shipwreck their faith and
adhere to religious myths and clichés that sounds good, but lacks true
Godly substance.

Gambling or Living? - Jul 19, 2012 - 6:54:47 PM
Isn’t
it amazing how today’s Religious Church and its leaders takes great delight in
majoring on minor issues while minoring on major issues?
And then to further add insult to injury,
their blatant hypocrisy on the issue of which they’re majoring has made them
all to look so silly and have exposed their natural and spiritual immaturity.
Case
and point: The
national hot button issue of today is GAMBLING, and like a lamb being led to
the slaughter the Pharisees & Sadducees of The Bahamas Christian /
Sanhedrin Council wasted no time in making their hypocritical, double standard
religious position known concerning gambling...

Not
personally knowing and having a genuine working relationship with God (Father
Yahweh) via his son Yahshua Messiah (a.k.a. Jesus the Christ); will always put
one in the position to be TAKEN, hoodwinked, bamboozled and run-a-muck by
crafty Religious Leaders with ulterior motives.
The
Bahamas is one of the most beautiful country in the entire world; It is said
that
“God,
lives in the Bahamas” be that as it may; Here’s an undeniable fact
about the Bahamas, the vast majority of Bahamians are easily taken by religious
scams and operations (especially those that have a foreign origin source or
element). Today, the majority of which we’re calling The Pentecostals,

The Last Days - Jun 22, 2012 - 11:37:18 AM
Are we living in the living in the Last Days? Are times more difficult now than it was back then? Are people more lovers of themselves and their money? Are they boastful, arrogant and full of pride? Are people today ridiculing God and his word? Is disobedience to parents at an all time high? What’s considered sacred in this day and time?
Don’t be so quick to answer the above questions, but rather seriously consider them in relations to what’s going on in our society today; And without a shadow of a doubt the only logical answer you’d be able to come up with is this “We are living in the last days”

Prov.18:
10.
The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the
righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
The
enemy / Satan knows full well of the power and authority that lies within the
name of the Lord (Yahweh), he / Satan also knows that if he could distort or
cause the true name of the Lord to be hid from or not known by today’s church;
he would be able to gain a great advantage against the saints.

has, and to this very day is methodically using religion to keep or hinder
believers from coming into the true knowledge of the name of the Lord.

Matt.4:

Yahshua’s message to the people that sat in darkness (no
true revelation of Father Yahweh) was Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at
hand. The message has not changed even to this very day, it still remains;
“Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

Voice of the People - May 17, 2012 - 7:29:59 PM
For
some time this erroneous saying
“The voice of the people, is the voice of
God” has been echoing throughout the length and breadth of the Bahamas;
even more so this saying has gain its strength and support as prominent Religious
Leaders can be heard ignorantly making such charge; of which the masses of their
gullible, itching ears religious-minded church folks quickly digest and ran
with.
And to further add insult to
injury this saying has been methodically tied to politics and its outcome.

Politics & Religion - May 4, 2012 - 4:07:02 PM

The church, which is supposed to be God’s
representative in the earth, stands powerless against this and many other assaults
