Beulah Foundation for Christ

      In recent times, especially with the deadly virus that ravaged the world, all manner of ideas and doctrines have risen within the Body of Christ. A question arose during the lockdowns, can Church be done somewhere else apart from a particular structure? All manner of teachings arose, that with the rise of technology, one can do Church from and in anywhere. Even when many within the Body saw that within that question laid a trap by the enemy to make Believers contravene the injunction of the Lord that says: "And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near" (Hebrews 10:25, NLT).        With this idea arose ideas that seek to expand, undermine and rewrite certain aspects of the Bible to fit the deviant minds of the advocates. Many now believe the Word of God should only encourage and motivate Christians. After all, God is Love and only desires that ...

      When it gets to this period of every year, many come out to declare it as the Season of Love. A time when people show their loved ones how much they love them. Many equally say it is a time to remind the world about loving one another. This mantra has equally passed on to many Church programs about this time. Many organise programs for the Singles and Married on the efficacies of love. It seems many in the world and some of the Churches agree on what the 'season' is.        Amusingly yearly, the Churches that believe this is the 'season of love' come up with many justifications to run the programs earmarked for the purpose.

Is He not still Love on the rest of the days and months? When you need to justify your actions, then something is ...

"Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I was compelled to write to you [urgently] appealing that you fight strenuously for [the defence of] the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints [the faith that is the sum of Christian belief that was given verbally to believers]. For certain people have crept in unnoticed [just as if they were sneaking in by a side door]. They are ungodly persons whose condemnation was predicted long ago, for they distort the grace of our God into decadence and immoral freedom [viewing it as an opportunity to do whatever they want], and deny and disown our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ (Jude 1:3-4, AMP).       Irreverence cloaked as Reverence has crept in amongst us. Sadly, many of us are none the wiser. You may wonder what does this mean? It means when that which is said to be common is now irreverent, and that which is revered is now said to be common. All around us, it is as if many...
