Am I Not Better Than Them? By Linnie Lovin.

Am I Not Better Than Them? By Linnie Lovin.

"We'll leave this time for our sister Mrs. Eno to lead us in powerful prayers" the pastor said

Mrs. Eno came up to the podium and led in strong and powerful prayer points. In the course of the prayer, yokes and chains were lifted, and broken.

Mrs Eno was a widow in her late 60s,with 3 children, she was such a devoted Christian in her church, she was a good suprano singer in the senior choir in church and a prayer band leader.

She was well known in her neighborhood as a good lady

*****************************

"You are next to give a sacrifice. The great mother cat, has chosen your son, and you have to kill him in ten days time, else..... You know the consequences" one of the witches said in their meeting

"I'll do as our great one has commanded " Mrs Eno replied.

Ten days were getting near and Mrs Eno could not succeed in killing her son. She had planned in so many ways, but her son who was in Abuja working, was always escaping all forms of her attacks.

*****************************

On the tenth day....

While Mrs.Eno was ironing and preparing for church, something entered her and the next minute she was outside, shouting in the neighborhood and this attracted many people to her....

"hahaha, I killed him, I killed him o, my husband, I killed him, I sacrificed him in my witchcraft coven" Mrs Eno confessed

"chei! Tufiakwa!" people exclaimed, shrugging their shoulders

"that's not all, my first daughter I took her womb, we ate it in our kingdom, hahaha, my second daughter I made her senseless, we destroyed her brain because her future was too bright.... as for my only son, he's spirit is stubborn and strong, he was supposed to be the next, but I don't know why I couldn't kill him " Eno kept on confessing and laughing.....

"chei! If someone told me Mma Eno was like this I wouldn't av believed, she was such a good Christian, everyday she's always going to church service, everytime she's always with her Bible " Mr Okonkwo said

"My brother, I'm shocked, hmm, all these Christians that say they are going to church, me that doesn't go to church , am I not better than them?, even someone like Evangelist Thomas or whatever he calls himself, that one came back from church one day and got into a fight with his neighbor over a little matter, and eventually landed himself in prison " Mr Donatus replied

"hahaha, my brother, imagine that choir leader Ngozi that behaves holy holy, she got pregnant and doesn't even know who is responsible for her pregnancy, cos of jumping from one man to another " Mr Okonkwo added

"So funny, these christians, they should stop deceiving themselves... At least we are better than them.... We don't go to church, we don't pretend, we live our lives normally. " Mr Donatus said

"I tell you, we are far more better than them, come let's go to Mama kube's joint and drink some palmy and dog meat, lets leave this woman who claimed to be a Christian " Mr Okonkwo said.

*****************************

One of the reasons we still have unbelievers in the world is because of the characters displayed by christians.

.

Most attitudes we display as Christians have caused the unbelievers to ask the question am I not better than them?

.

Most ungodly characters we display, have made them consider themselves better than us. Which is not supposed to be so.

.

A Christian is supposed to live a life that others will imitate.

Let's live a good life, a life that serve as a good example to the unbelievers.

Just as our Savior, Jesus had shown us a good example which brought us near to him.

As a Christian, Let your life be an ATTRACTION not a DISTRACTION from SALVATION

Why did David Choose five smooth stones before going to fight Goliath?

Question: "Why did David choose five smooth stones before going to fight Goliath? Was David doubting God? Was it because Goliath had five brothers? Or, was David simply being prepared?" Answer:   Some presume that David took five smooth stones instead of just one because he had some doubt. However, there is no indication in the story of David and Goliath that by picking up five smooth stones instead of one that David was doubting God. Rather, David was simply being prepared. What if the Philistines attacked him after he killed Goliath? How would he have defended himself? David was simply being prepared when he took the four additional stones. Also, he couldn’t have known that one stone would be enough to kill the giant. God had not promised that David would kill Goliath with the first stone. David had experience in defending the sheep he guarded with his sling and stones. It would seem that the animals David had faced were far braver than the men with Goliath, because they al...
