STUBBORNNESS

“Who is a stubborn person?” you might ask. Simply put, a stubborn person is someone who is difficult to handle or someone who firmly sticks to his own ideas or desires no matter what. People are generally stubborn in various aspects of their lives: in their homes, schools, workplaces and relationships. The worst and most severe form of stubbornness is stubbornness towards God. It is one thing not to believe in God and another to be firm in unbelief that you are not even open to anything that might change your mind. It is God’s wish that all people will turn to Him – 2 Peter 3:9 – but recognizes that some (the “stubborn”) never will. Many people in the Bible are described as stubborn, but three in particular stand out: (1) the king of Egypt during the Exodus; (2) the people of Israel throughout their history; and (3) the Pharisees of Jesus’ day. Each of whom, because of their hardened hearts, rejected the constant appeals from God to alter their paths. These people had similar ch...

CHILDREN & HEIRS

My mentor had told me of this before but I only understood it on a mental level back then. Months later, after clearing my plate of its delicious occupants, the Spirit of the Lord set this seed my mentor, Mr. T, had placed in my heart alive. Isaiah 43:26 says that we should, “Put me (God) in remembrance: let us (you and God) plead together: declare thou (state your cause), that thou mayest be justified.” God is asking us here to put Him to remembrance of the earlier promise He made in Isaiah 43:25. But not only is He asking us to state our case so He forgives us of our sins: vs. 25, He is also asking us to go further than that to ask what we need as His children and heirs. In Galatians 4:1, Paul inspired by the Holy Spirit states, “Now I say, that the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all.” We find that though we may be heirs we could still be acting like children or even servants, asking for crumbs that seem like gold to us. We...

THE WONDERFUL NAME OF JESUS CHRIST: OUR GIFT

  Acts 4:12, “Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” From this insightful verse we notice four key points: 1.       “Neither is there salvation in any other………. whereby we must be saved.” - Salvation 2.       “…. for there is none other name…….” – The Name of Jesus Christ 3.       “…… under heaven….” – The Realms/worlds 4.       “….. given among men…….” – The Power in the Name given to Us The first key point we see in this verse is that salvation of man is only through our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. There is no other way for man to have his soul saved and transformed from a state of death to eternal life. Even before His birth the angel of the Lord told Joseph what Jesus was to do, and that was to save us from our sins: Matthew 1:21 . Jesus himself said in John 14:6 , “I am t...

Light Dreams of A Black Kid

To hell with the fervent prayers spat from weary lips to hell with wasted youth hoping for brighter times My ancestors deserve no explanation when I'm haunted by visions of a distant nation when my identity is the shadow of my destination. Sowed in this dark soil my dreams bear a fairer complexion. I fight for the chance to be the next slave as the former is casually tossed in his grave Understand I do so not willfully but because my aspirations are fed with willed folly I believe in the land of bright lights though all that glitters is not gold. I believe in the land of free expression though empty barrels make the most noise Do not question my borrowed perception for you seek a fruitless inquisition Who are you to doubt this,my beloved inception I find peace in this nation of lust and envy and proudly pledge allegiance to a land I've never seen I gladly accept I'm a spawn of misfortune concocted in a continent of despair waiting to be cleansed by the ...

INITIATION

From her lips escaped a whimper, as my flawless token was laid on the alter. This was not the time to falter, for around stood fellows of the dark clad in shadows of the fallen master. A sullen hymn was raised by the priest, to greet the icy fingers reaching from the east. Guttural exaltation echoed in the twilight, placing my beloved sacrifice in a peaceful trance. This was no Isaac to the cause for through her eyes her soul itched for a chance. Handed the sacred instrument of initiation, I approached my beloved with unsolicited invitation. My breath was that of a million, my senses were that of a legion, and my conscience was that of the vilest abomination. Her scream cut through the great hall, quickly followed by orgasmic sighs from the fallen. Bathed in the blood of my beloved's womb, I was eager to refresh my impatient ghoul Sweet to the tongue and smooth to the throat, my beloved's blood was indeed nectar. My long awaited initiation was finally ...

CONDITIONALS

without a doubt I know what love isn't but then again I wonder what it could be is it the painted meadow we see on the tube? or the nightmarish stories told by the jilted? frankly my untamed naivety wishes love were everything. if love were a science, you'd be Einstein calculating E = my heart x C square if love were food, you'd be one arrogant Italian whipping up culinary masterpieces tempting my fickle will if love were a subject, you'd be physical education, working me all day and night if love were a car, you'd be a German engine cocooned in an Asian exterior but bully like an American my alter ego seeks to reason with my naive self but then I still wonder: if love were a season, I'd be summer time drawing sweat from every curve and crevice if love were music, I'd rock you like MJ, teach you like Marley and conquer your ecstasy like Jay if love were a sport, I'd be Kobe, Tiger and Messi all rolled in one and still be reffing the ga...
