Before I go on I’d like to recall this song by Micah
Stampley “Heaven on earth” and one by Deitrick Haddon “Well done”. Those songs
make me go craaazzyy every time I hear them. Hmmm… but seriously what is Heaven
really like? As usual nau I have gist. Oya leggoooo.
I was in Unilag some days back when a hand just
stretched out a booklet from the back of the cab to me in the front seat. Toh! I began to read.
The title was “Another warning” by K.U.
He was talking about how Jesus visited him and took
him up to heaven and to hell, chastised him on been slack in spreading the
gospel, about his time of coming back being near and many other things. I agree
with many things he said, [Meh! don’t ask me how].
Then he got to this part where he saw a female being
dragged to hell by some demons and when Jesus asked why she was being dragged
to hell she said…
“That it was
because she was wearing earrings, artificial hairs, and trousers. In addition
she said, “My pastor told us that wearing earrings and trousers and putting artificial
hairs and nails and other things like that, is not a sin: that God does not
look at the heart. And now they are taking me to hell fire because I was
wearing those things… when she finished telling …He asked her to go back to the
world and tell people what she saw and heard.”
Hmmm… when I was studying one day and I came across
this passage…
Ezekiel 16 vs 10 ( KJV) -“I clothed thee also with BROIDERED
WORK and shod thee with badgers’ skin, and I girded thee about with fine linen,
and I covered thee with silk.
Vs 11 –I decked the also with ORNAMENTS, and I put BRACELETS
upon thy hands, and a CHAIN on thy neck.
Vs 12- And I put a JEWEL on thy forehead and EARRINGS
in thine ears, and a beautiful CROWN upon thine head.
The whole chapter was about the Lord’s kindness to
Jerusalem and how He adorned them but they decided to play the harlot and how
he remembered His Covenant with them and restored them.
My own curiosity is, if all the jewelry thingy is
SIN, why will it appear where God was talking about his kindness and blessing?
Personally, the artificial nail part I don’t really like because I am not comfortable
with it. I don’t really use artificial hair because I get tired of it too
easily and when I do use it, random people start asking “With all your hair, you are
still putting this ‘load’ on your head? Leave it to those of us that don’t have
hair” LOL
I get this every time, and I always think I am invisible [Again don’t ask me why, I am God’s VERY SPECIAL CHILD...always in the naughty corner] *Cheeky grin*

But me, I paint my nails, wear light makeup, and wear earrings- moderately. As long it doesn't make my neighbor sin. Then again, wetin wan make neighbor sin for there now, eh?
They said the same thing about Pastor Bimbo Odukoya. People stopped wearing jewelry when they claimed they saw her in hell and resumed when it was disputed. Read your Bible, people. Se fini.
The writer ended up saying "if you continued wearing
all that, YOU are finished!" Ozanobua meh!
Does the Bible tell tales now? GOD FORBID! He is NOT
a man that He should lie.
Nonetheless, Heaven is real, Hell is also real. Work
not in flesh but in the Spirit.
I am listening to Deitrick Haddon’s
“He’s able”. So you can imagine the dance I am doing while typing this.
Don’t give up on God ‘cos he won’t give up on you …HE’S
ABLE!!!!!

If you have
any correct gist, holla at me at anosime@yahoo.com
Anosi was nominated for a libester, so I will be on about it next post.
Girl you beta preach that word! When Christ called us the sheep of his pasture, he did not mean sheep as in “can’t think for myself, will go every where the wind blows” kinda people. Christians let us think, actually read the word of God and THINK and stop being sheep!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is why 'the world' mocks us because we seem to have no firm standing. Anything gbam we take. They throw 'lies' at us, we believe. The Bible is final and that is what i look at. The letter killeth, understand Rhema.
