As Moses described the final redemption to come, he told Israel that God will circumcise their hearts. He said, “God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants, to love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live” (Deuteronomy 30:6). The metaphoric circumcision of the heart will enable us to completely fulfill the commandment of loving…

The Power of Thought and Speech One of the prohibited forms of behavior is gossip. לֹא תֵלֵךְ רָכִיל בְּעַמֶּיךָ וגו’: (ויקרא יט:טז)[G‑d instructed Moses to tell the Jewish people,] “You must not go around as a gossipmonger.” Leviticus 19:16 According to the Talmud, gossip “kills” three people: the speaker, the listener, and the object of the gossip.

Envy is wanting the possessions and destiny of others. To be filled with envy is to be filled with a jealousy of what others may have that you do not have. However, in the real sense, to be envious of others is really to be unhappy with what the Creator has given to you and to be unhappy with the destiny that Yahweh has laid down for you. Envy removes you from the path that Yahweh have created…

Everyone loves to have interaction with those whose principles and ways of doing things do not change. This makes them able to predict outcomes and thereby make life easier for themselves. They know where to thread and what not to do. The interesting thing is that the Creator is the most constant factor in all existence. He is an Eternal being with eternal principles and Words. He declared in…

One theme that is synonymous with all religion is that of LOVE. Every one of them agrees that it is important and necessary to show love to people around us.

Research proves that sharing in all its forms is a truly powerful way to bring happiness. You can share things…

THE CREATOR HAS ONLY ONE THING TO GIVE – HAPPINESS

Many times we struggle within ourselves to understand why we go through hardship and suffering that makes us feel sad. We have a mental picture of a Creator who at His whims, decides to put people through harrowing experiences because He is unhappy with us.

There is only one thing the Creator is capable of giving to mankind. That is unbounded pleasure and fulfillment. All He wants to do is to…

Who Is Responsible For The Negative Things That Happen To Me?

As man, when bad things happen to us, we are always moved to know that some force somewhere is acting against us and the force is either directly from the Creator due to Him forsaking us or someone who hates us. We do not for once want to believe that it may be due to what we have done in the past.

The universal law of cause and effect is enough to convince us that whatever happens to us is as…

Why do people marry?

If you limit it to companionship or ‘to complete’ oneself; then you have set out on the wrong footing.

People marry for many reasons but all the reasons must be geared towards the manifestation of the will of the Creator for mankind.

Marriage can be a rehabilitation centre for a woman. It could also be a place of refuge (either physical or emotional).

Marriage…

Christians are fond of defining Biblical Marriage as one man, one woman, bonded for life, sexually exclusive, and celibate before marriage. The problem is, that’s not in the Bible. In order to find that model of marriage, we will have to look beyond the bible.

Taking the Bible as a whole, there are far more references to polygamy — and far more…

Most of the favors we do for others are things they do not need, things they only imagine they need, because we live in a world propelled by fantasies.

And most of the kindness we do is saturated with ulterior motives. We do kindness for those we love, those close to us, or those who make us feel good when they receive.

But this does not matter. They are acts of kindness, nonetheless, and…

A News Agency of Nigeria report on an interview with me at a Menstrual Hygiene Programme recently.

The reason why the Jewish leaders in the 1st Century rejected Jesus as the Messiah was because he didn’t fulfil the Messianic role of ruling in Jerusalem. This is one of the roles of the Messiah. The following are what the Messiah will do:

Before the time of the Messiah, there shall be war and suffering (Ezekiel 38:16)

The Messiah will bring about the political and spiritual redemption of…

Many people who are not knowledgeable about the Tanach, called the Old Testament, will believe that there is no place for non-jews in the plan of Yahweh for Israel. That is why they so strongly believe that Jesus came to open up a new way for gentiles to have eternal access to the Almighty instead of that for Israel.

There are many instances in the Tanach where non-jews became part of the…
