December Wednesday 4th
QUESTION AND ANSWER SERIES (Use Of Laptop or iPad For Preaching)
TEXT: Nehemiah 8: 1-5
KEY VERSE: Nehemiah 8:5 “And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:”
QUESTION: Is it right as a man of God to carry laptop or phone on the pulpit instead of Bible to use it and preach?
ANSWER: Every preacher should study his environment. There is an environment that you can do that and nobody will be offended. It is not seen as a sin to you but there is an environment that you can do that and the people will be offended at you and you have done the wrong thing. So know your environment. Of itself there is no sin there but if you come to a congregation of ignorant people who do not know that there is no sin there and you are pricking their conscience, you are making them to commit sin and you are not working in wisdom and understanding you sin.
However, when you go to a congregation where the people are enlightened and peaceful. Some in the congregation may even ask, “Oh! Can I have a look at your laptop? What software do you use for Bible studies?  Oh that your software how did you get it?” That is an enlightened community. They will not feel that you are committing sin. We need to understand this because whether you like it or not between 5-10 years to come, hard copy Bibles may be replaced by electronic soft copies. That is because of advancement in knowledge and technology all over the world.
You may even discover that Bible publishers and printers might even prefer the electronic softcopies of the Bible. What you will be seeing in the market would be a different thing from the traditional products. You will just have to adjust and also buy them. You know we were using audio cassettes for messages some years ago, but can you readily find it to buy in the market now? They have been systematically phased out by the compact disc (CD) technology. It has now become DVDs, CDs. Yet more developments and discoveries are still ahead of humanity, for the Bible says that in the end times, knowledge shall increase.
Thought for the day: Every preacher should study his environment.
Song for the day: He is everything, Jesus is everything to me………..
Bible reading for the day:
Daniel 3-4; 1 John 3

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
