On Soul-winning



Proverbs 11 : 30 
"The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise." 


Soul-winning is simply changing someone else's bad ways, beliefs, and thought process into a godly one, by pointing them to Christ through the word of God. Whoever that continually perform this act is considered wise. 

So, soul-wining is a noble act act of wisdom, and here is why: James 5: 20 said that he which converted the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death and shall hide multitude of sin. This means that by turning sinners from the error of their ways, you're saving lives and instrumental to protecting them from the harsh punishment of sin. 


The golden rule makes provision for you to have exactly what you do to others. so, for every soul you save from death, and sin you cover, your longevity is assured and your sins are covered too; because he that watereth shall be watered (prov 11:25), and blessed is he...whose sin is covered (Ps 32:1). So, God got you covered when you got someone else covered. 


And what's more?  Daniel 12 : 3 includes that they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness shall shine as the stars FOREVER, in the everlasting life. So, stardom status over there in Heaven, is secured here on earth, by soul-wining! 


If you have been struggling with the Idea of soul-wining or don't have adequate understanding why it is so necessary, then this is what you need. 

God bless you!

A fu ihe ka ubi... (Selling the storehouse)

  The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure that a man discovered hidden in a field...and sold everything he owned to get enough money to buy the field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. -Mt 13 :44-47 "A fu ihe ka ubi eree oba" is an Igbo adage  which loosely translates to : " when one sees what is greater than the farm, he sells  the barn. This implies that when one sees something of high value and important he gives up his 'storehouse' (his entire treasury/savings) to get it....at all cost.  On the face value, this adage feels like just about any other saying, but on a close look, it has a lot deeper implication. 'Oba', which means 'barn', in the traditional Igbo context connotes one's storehouse where they stock up the volume of yams harvested (as yams was one of chief food and yardstick for measuring wealth in the

On Unfriendly People

  Hebrews 12: 14  "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:"   At the thought of 'unfriendly people', the first set of image that comes to mind are usually people who are hostile to you, don't like a thing or two about you, can't stand you or just don't relate at all with others in a friendly manner. However, this goes beyond the surface to include those who do not necessarily share the same belief or values system with you; those with the same belief but varied opinion, those who pretend to be friends with you but plot against you, or those who are out-rightly  without ( col 4:5)   and persecute you...etc. The list goes on : all [kinds of] men ; and the opening scripture said to follow peace with them all!  This a rather disturbing instruction, as it could be a bit tasking to constantly keep up peace with someone who clearly do not want peace with you. But here is why it is important: reading do
