THE JESUS FAN CLUB

DAY 4 John 1:38 When Jesus turned and saw them, he asked, “What do you want? ”They answered, “Rabbi, where do you live?” The Hebrew word “Rabbi” means “Teacher.” Jesus is rather blunt when he encounters the disciples in today's Gospel for the first time. In no two ways, He asks them 'what do you... Continue Reading →

RESPECTING RANKS

DAY 3 In certain spheres of life, rank is a big deal. The military is the clearest example of such a field of endeavour where insubordination is frowned upon such that often, even regardless of the circumstances, you are to obey the ranks. John's description of Jesus in today's Gospel is rather telling: This is... Continue Reading →

WHO ARE YOU?

DAY 2 John 1:19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you? It is interesting that when John the Baptist was asked 'if He was the Christ or Elijah, he responded 'I am not'. That answer for some may have been... Continue Reading →

BLESSED INDEED

DAY 1 When God first made man, the very first thing scripture mentions is 'And God blessed them...(Gen 1:28)'. Through time, while God remains the administrator of every blessing contained within the boundaries of His Word, He honours the declarations of men who are relay channels of those blessings. Thus, when Isaac spoke to Esau... Continue Reading →

Others have already transitioned so as we countdown the hours for the year to turn the corner, it's time to do a bit of rounding up. This means some questions will have to... Continue Reading →

364/365 Matthew 2:19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,  Every warning that was issued to Joseph concerning Jesus came in a dream, every single time. On 4 different occasions: from the advise to stay with Mary, flee with her and the infant... Continue Reading →

WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW

363/365 Luke 2:33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him. It is interesting to know that Mary and Joseph, who had received specific details about who Jesus would be from an angelic source, were oblivious of the revelation Simeon brought. They were quite surprised. There are somethings about... Continue Reading →

A TWO-FOLD CORD

362/365 Matthew  2:13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. Any kind... Continue Reading →

IT TAKES MORE THAN SPEED

361/365 John 20:4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre. Speed is an advantage, that statement needs not be up for debate because of you can arrive in any location space faster than anyone else can, you clearly have an edge. The same is...
