The 5 principles on sin.

A. A Holy God cannot tolerate sin.
1) One sin can make all d difference in the world.
a) It made a difference for Israel.      (defeat)  
b) It made a difference for Achan.       (death)
c) It can make a difference for you.     (damnation)
2) God does not "grade on curve," but on absolutes.

B. Sin is never purely private.
1) ISRAEL has sinned, THEY have stolen, THEY have lied.Josh 7:11
a) Yet Achan is only one to be revealed
2) One bad apple ruins the barrel.
a) Reason - toxic gas is given off, encouraging rot
b) Same in churches.
c) Unchecked sin by one person can pull everyone down.

3) Private sin off-limits?  Not to God.

SECRET SIN -Part 2

IT JUST TAKES ONE TO BRING US DOW
No one is immune
Many people have been deeply impressed with d writings of a man called Gordon MacDonald.

Billy Graham said of one of his books: "It struck me right between the eyes with conviction & I wish that I had read it Image
many years ago."
Another prominent Christian leader described him as "one of d most Godly men I have ever met."
He was d pastor of d largest church in New England & taught at seminaries.He became d president of d Intervarsity evangelistic organization, one of d biggest in America
Then it came out. A sin from a few years back was exposed, and MacDonald was forced to resign.

The sin was adultery. Celeste, his wife was so shocked she has never trusted him since, and it's been over 20 years.

He was forced to step down as president of Intervarsity.

Results of Secret Sin.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the author of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, loved practical jokes.
Once he sent a telegram to each of 12 friends.

All were men of great virtue and respected in society.
The telegram said, "Flee at once, your secret is discovered!" Image
Within 24 hours, the story goes, all twelve had left  the country!
There may be some playful exaggeration here, but the
point is usually true that many people, including
Christians, are not what they seem to be.
James 1:15 "Then after our desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death."

SIN GROWS.
Sin always takes you further than you wanted to go.
Sin Cost you more than you want to pay,
Sin keep you longer than you want to stay.

#The, God No Go Shame Us Slang"

I have often heard this in so many instances, "God No Go Shame Us..."

First thing first, God shames no one, and has never shamed anyone.

The only fellows or gang God ever public shamed was satan and his goons

Colossians 2v15 NIV
And having Image
disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.e (Col 2:15|NIV-)

Colossians 2:15 MSG
He stripped all the spiritual tyrants in the universe of their sham authority at the Cross and marched them naked through the streets
Colossians 2:15 AMP
[God] disarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it [the cross].

It is not in God to shame anyone, rather, poor decisions, poor actions, poor

How can @elrufai committee propose N385 as fuel pump ⛽ price, how?

These politicans don't just give 2 cents care about the citizens, while they continually live in ridiculous affluence.

If this is actualized, the impact on the ordinary NIGERIAN would be huge.

The impact
on transportation, food, manufacturing industries etc, would be insane.

It's not just about removal of fuel subsidy, but, of TRUST. When subsidy is removed, the fallout is shared amongst states and God alone knows what they do with the "windfall"
We barely see significant
improvements in the lives of NIGERIANS.

We have 4 moribund refineries just lying waste.
We are among the top 10 countries of the world with huge deposits of oil, yet, we import what we can easy produce locally.

Needless to say that this Government promised to get these
