THE FAMILY IN CRISIS.(Series 1)

The Oxford Advanced learners dictionary defined the family as a group consisting of one or two parents with their children. The family unit began with the creation of Adam and Eve and their children Cain and Abel and since then the devil has consistently attacked the family in diverse of ways and sadly the multiple negative effects now stares us on our faces as we now live in a world where anything and everything is permitted, a world where the abnormal have suddenly become normal all because the family which ought to be a moulding ground for good values and characters is under severe siege. There was a time when Nigerian parents abroad sent their children back to the country to be properly raised by their family members, even though they were in countries where they enjoyed the basic needs of life, they realised the need to raise their children in the African environment where so much emphasis are placed on values and morality but do we still have such practices today? How many abroad based parents are still willing to send back their children? By the way, is there any difference in what we have today in our society and the ones abroad? Are we not much more morally bankrupt? How did we get here? Growing up in the village,many children were brought back from the cities and townships by their parents to live with their relatives because they did not want them to lose their identities, I attended village schools with such children who also accompanied their guardians to farm and early in the morning we all trecked long distance to the stream to wash and bath, as a matter of fact, some of them became so perfect in traditional wrestling and drumming even before they returned back to the city and township to re-unite with their parents but permit me to ask, Are the villages of today in any way better than the cities and townships? Are we not experiencing much more moral decadent in our villages? Do we still have that old village practices where children were disciplined by other members of the society for wrong doings? Again I ask, How did we get here? To be continued..... Authored by: Pastor Emmanuel N Okafor. Telephone number: +2348060518919

LET'S PRAY FOR THE CHURCH (Part 3).

Seriously speaking, the church as presently constituted cannot effectively fight the kingdom of darkness and this is because the church and it's leaders have completely surrendered to the dictate and control of agents of darkness whose wealths emaciates from the pit of hell, it's a known fact that the church now receives financial and material gift from people of questionable characters, as a matter of fact, it's no longer a secret that many of our today's churches are now being sponsored by Yahoo Yahoo plus criminals. It's laughable for anyone in his or her right senses to expect that the church whose leaders have been captured by the powers of satanic wealth would summon the courage and strength to prayerfully dislodge the forces of darkness in the church, how is that going to work? How on earth would anyone expect them to rise against the same people that are not just financing their churches but are also financing their lavish lifestyles? If they f...

He or she will struggle all through in everything and finds it difficult to encounter positive change. Some houses have become a condict pipe from ...
