Image by Mescopaul's Blog &  Christian Forums Why did God choose Abraham to be the father of his people Israel? Certainly Abraham was not even righteous. He was known to be an idol worshiper in the Ur of the Chaldeans. In his wandering after God called him, he still had flaws in his life, bothering on lying, polygamy etc. Yet God did not unchoose him. Abraham’s life was not near a picture of perfection, yet God chose him, why? The only remarkable thing we see in Abraham’s life is his obedience and BELIEVE in God. This was what made him righteous – his believe, not his works. He had scores of unrighteous works, but he believed in God and was ready to obey God blindly. At that time, there were even persons and nations which knew God better than Abraham. Gerar was a righteous nation, and Abimelech was a righteous king; because he even queried God as to why God would destroy a righteous nation for nothing (Genesis 20:4) For him, he confessed tha

Image by Mescopaul's Blog &  Arthive Two different personalities signifying two different people emerged from Adam and Eve. The first is the lineage of Cain. The second is that of Abel. Cain signified evil, hatred, anger, sin and a godless system. Abel signified purity, love for God, gentle and righteous, and a system that pledges allegiance to God. Once, Cain (the evil system) rose up against the good, and killed Abel, the righteous one. Abel was innocent, committed no crime, yet he died a cruel death. Seth replaced Abel, and sustained the righteous system that depended on God. Cain went out of the presence of God and we see how he began civilization and inventions without the God input. Cain is a system that does not answer to God. It is the world system. A Godless Civilization The following characterized the lineage of Cain. 1. The building of a city – Civilization. 2. Polygamy. 3. Tenth construction and large scale farming – herdsmen.

Image by Mescopaul's Blog - The Tree of the Soul-consciousness Many call it the tree of death, the Bible calls it the tree of knowledge of good and evil. In my own opinion, the tree or it's fruit wasn't the problem, that was not what made man or gave man the sin nature. Man got the sin nature not because they ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, but because they OBEYED Satan. Who you obey becomes your Lord, and the servant does not have a life of his own; he lives out the life of his master. So man got the nature of sin, not because he ate of a tree, but because he obeyed the devil, and so he became the servant of the devil in accordance to the spiritual law of 'becoming by obedience.' Soul-consciousness We (man) would still have eaten from the tree of knowledge of good and evil (which I call the tree of the human/soul life). Being conscious of yourself or your soul is not the problem, God intended us to be, he had plans for that, Adam was no

Image by  Thrive Global  - The Power of Choice; A Blessing or a Curse? Choice in itself is both a gift and a death sentence. We are given a will of our own. To know and do what we want to do, how we want to do it and when we want to do it. Our choices are not forced on us, we make them by our own sovereignty . Animals are not so lucky. They may have a will, but they don't have that freedom to do what they want, when they want and how they want. Plants are the "unluckiest" of all. They certainly have no will of their own and no choice of their own. Several factors determine their existence and death. A plant or rather a seed sown in a good soil with all conditions in place will invariably grow to become a tree, bear fruits and keep reproducing for as long as the conditions for its growth are still in place. It has no choice to DECIDE to stop bearing fruits, or to bear a different fruit or to change its location. It is a living thing, yet limited in it's pote

Image by Hackernoon.com What do you think of having every single notification on your phone read out to you rather than having to pick up your phone and go through them one after the other? Well, I was doing the dishes while boiling water to make some pap for my breakfast. I was really behind time and wasn’t ready to take the unnecessary shouts from my boss. My client also was also locked on a chat with me as to how we need to plan for me to deliver the brand new Level U Samsung Earphones. I had to keep my phone at arm’s length as I strained my ears to hear the tick sound of a new message from my client, while attending to the house chores. With my soiled hands, wet from the dishes I was washing it was impossible to pick up my phone to read the last message that just popped in. A hand rag wasn’t close by and things were getting out of hands. I thought about an app or widget or anything that would automatically read out my notifications for me and save me stress of havin

Legend of the saints by Mescopaul  Chapter 5 Doctor Stormsan emerged from the emergency ward and waved Philips Archeles to his office. Once seated Dr. Stormsan began to speak, "Sir your son's case is bad, we did our best , the fever is down now, but the eyes are turning bloody red, we've checked and crosschecked our patient but we couldn't find the cure for his eyes." "What about the excruciating pains and the splitting head?" Asked a worried Grandpa. "The pains I think must have subsided but the more his fever and pains subsides, the more his eyes seems to turn more reddish in colour." A short quiet silence followed, Philips Archeles thought about this new problem at hand, _"what might be the cause of this sickness?",_ He wondered. Breaking his thoughts, the doctor spoke, "We might be discharging him tomorrow , if he is okay by then, but for his eyes I'm sorry sir, we're not sure if we

Legend of the saints by Mescopaul  Chapter 4 "You deal with your mind, with your feeling, you focus on the burning light, you become dead to your physical environment , you become alive to the spirit world, focus on the flame..." Allen was totally submerged in Stephen Shaw's psychic lectures. With focused attention he gazed at the candle in front of him and did as was instructed by Stephen. He could really something in him, it was coming, coming, and oops , spoilt, as a familiar voice whispered in his ears, it was Kimball , saying they should go home, she was feeling uncomfortable and scared.  With a sullen face, Allen stood up from the mat were he sat, durst his buttocks free and sauntered off the room while furious and angry faces stared at them for disturbing their own meditation . Kimball made a wave of apology at the crew and an angry Stephen then held Allen's hand as they made for the door. "Oh, gush, i was almost scared to the
