Extremes of Christianity to avoid

By -

• Carnalism –

It doesn't matter how you look like on the outside. What matters is that Christ has declared you saved and you're now the righteousness of God by Christ Jesus. So don't let those "holier than thou" people make you feel like a sinner because you still have some swag and they don't...
Please enjoy Grace and don't follow those people that burden you with laws to obey... Christ has set you free, so please be free.

• Legalism –

How can you tell me that it doesn't matter how you look like on the outside?. How can I call myself a Christian and still dress and talk like the people of this world? C'mon na, light must differentiate itself from darkness even on the outside...
Please, being under Grace doesn't mean we are free to do as we like. Me, I'll place extreme boundaries on myself so what I believe on the inside would always be seen on my outside.

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -

This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

How I got out of paid employment in 11 months

It is true that you achieve what you put your mind to. January 27 2017, I was seated in the office to have my final interview. I have read lots of interview questions and answers online before then like I was going to get a 10 million naira job. Staying without job for a year was the lowest point of my life. I answered every questions pragmatically and then the very big question! How long do you see yourself working with us? "I can only guaranty that I will be here in the next one year", I replied. I didn't even last a year because I have my purpose and focus in view. I knew exactly what took me there so I wasn't that employee who has the mindset of retirement. In fact, I never participated in anything long term there. Maybe you also want to have total control of your time to play a bigger game. The following steps will guide you. Find your purpose: Every decisions I took springed from my discovery of Oladipupo. Though I was jobless in 2016, I used that year t...

Rush Hour (1998)

By -

Rush Hour is an American buddy action comedy film that stars Jackie Chan (Detective Inspector Lee) and Chris Tucker (Detective James Carter) as mismatched cops who must rescue the Chinese consul's (Consul Solon Han) kidnapped daughter. Photo Credit: Wikipedia What did I learn from Rush Hour? • Sometimes, one's dream(s) becomes reality in the most unexpected and funny of ways. I admire people who take life happily, make fun out of the seriousness of life, and at the same time, still stay focused on their dreams with optimism, trying to make great use of opportunities that comes around them. Detective Carter of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the cop who doesn't go with a partner on cop duties (he had lost his Dad who was also a cop due to the failure of his dad's partner to back him up), unlike his other colleagues in the police department, seemed to be regarded as a joker, a carefree cop in the LAPD. If every cop in the LAPD were to be ranke...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

Real wealth comes through solving problems

By -
Image
I'm not certain of the actual writer of this, but I think it's worth sharing on this space. Thumbs up to the Writer! ----- The major secret of billionaires is their ability to find solutions to the challenges of humanity. All of them created solutions that brought the billions. Presently, Bill Gates is spending millions of dollars in search of renewable energy. By the time he finds one and become a major player in the electricity industry, we will say he is lucky. But we forget that he didn't pray for financial breakthrough, he only found a solution to a global problem. Wealthy people don't necessarily look for money, they create solutions, and money will follow them! Larry Page and Sergey Brin went all out to help humanity find things faster on the internet, and billions of dollars followed them. Mark Zuckerberg created platforms for socialization, and over $71 billion followed him. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak went all out to reduce the size of computer. What ...

London Has Fallen (2016)

You watched Olympus H as F allen ? London Has Fallen is kind of a sequel to that movie. The movie stars: Gerard Butler (Agent Mike Banning), Aaron Eckhart (Benjamin Asher - US President), Morgan Freeman (Allan Trumbull - US Vice President), Angela Bassett (Lynne Jacobs - Secret Service Director), Alon Moni Aboutboul (Arms dealer/terrorist mastermind - Aamir Barkawi), among others. Photo Credit: Wikipedia I love this movie just as I love Olympus Has Fallen . Maybe it's because of Gerard Butler's bravery and role in both movies. I do enjoy movies that showcases fight against terrorism, you know, the CIA, FBI sort of movies. I couldn't help watching the complete nine seasons of 24, one time my best movie. I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but sometimes when I'm tired, maybe bored, and I need to relax and at the same time, get some motivation, I watch these kind of movies. They just have a way of drawing out motivation within me, and after...

Life is a Long Shot

By -

When I see those that knew me when I was much younger, probably those we lived in same area or schooled together, I often wonder what they think of me today. About who I have become. I am far different from the person they knew, yet I know I only just begun in my journey to change lives all around the world. When I see men and women, and the weight of abilities they carry, I am astounded. Many of whom are not taking any step whatsoever to show the world the depth of possibility locked in their very soul. Sadly so. I have grown to be able to have conversations with people and pick messages off their lives. Things lying there waiting for expression. Edgy. It is usually a sight to behold when they have “aha” moments, seeing the possibilities that abound within them. I cherish such moments. I was speaking with a very inspiring lady yesterday evening (on the day this was written) and what she said touched my heart. She was loaded with messages from her life experience to bless many lives...

What a Real Woman desires?

By -
Image
It's funny – once a young man has money, affluence or fame, he begins to think every woman is after his wealth, or popularity. He begins to see himself as a real man because he has money and can pay bride price and 'put a woman in the house' without batting an eye or breaking the bank.. A Real Woman is not after a Man's money. No, she knows she can make hers. She knows she needs him to have his too. But beyond wealth, a Real Woman desires – • Emotional security from her Man She wants to know she can be herself (completely naked) emotionally before him and not be mocked for it or rebuked. She wants to know he will fight to put and keep a smile on her face, to make her happy, do all he can to defend her emotions every day of their lives together. A woman's emotions is her greatest vulnerability. It's what makes them different from Men, and a man who cannot understand this aspect and show capacity to handle her in that regards needs to learn. Some men cannot ev...
