SPEAKING in tongues and languages known as glossolalia is a topic that causes serious schism in Christendom and religions and cults also want their voice to be heard.
This is the first instalment in this series.
Tongues will go a long way beyond our natural languages. If you pray using your language, God hears you.
Praying in the Spirit is meant to edify you.
Let’s quickly settle the edification.

SO integral in our faith walk in recalling the prophecies of God upon ourselves.
We do know that on this side of the Cross the promises of God are yes and Amen in Christ, 2 Corinthians 1:20, “For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.”
In other words, they are a done deal.
The prophecies of God find expression in our lives.
We’re the bodies which give expression to what God ordained before the fountain of the world.

THERE are spiritual truths or eternal realities that we need to keep at the fore, especially at the beginning of the year.
This will guarantee victorious Christian living throughout the year.
We need to reassure ourselves so that we don’t go out this year shaking.
At the beginning of the year, we table plans or resolutions.
Naturally, there is a possibility that some of the things may not come to pass according to our expectations and timelines.
That doesn’t mean God has failed us.

HUMAN relationships are very important to our development and wellbeing.
As we start a new year, we want to take a stock of how we have treated fellow beings in the past year.
We will equally interrogate how we have been treated.
The human ecosystem thrives when we respect each other. Treat others with human dignity.
We are not naively assuming that there are no malcontents and architects of evil.
As a rule of thumb, wisdom teaches us to regard others as we regard others.

THROUGHOUT this month, December, we are going to recap on some topical issues we have covered so far.
Sometimes as Christian we are so eager to get more sermons without even using the knowledge we have thus far.
We said the following in January. How much of this material have you used so far or still remember?
Early in the year over the years I have always put out something on spiritual growth. This year is no exception.

LAST week we said nothing will change about Jesus.
What He was yesterday is what He is today and will be tomorrow.
The message of Christ is therefore consistent.
This column has also taught that theology is understood through the lenses of Christology.
The perspective of the Bible is Christology and we see God in Christ or we perceive God through Christology lenses.
The Bible is not interpreted by a preacher’s experience or denominational persuasion.

THE Bible teaches us that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. What brought us into salvation or born again state should be consistent.
The message should not change. We quote Hebrews 13:8, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.”
This column has established that the Gospel we received in order to be saved should not change tone. Should it change, then it becomes another gospel or heresy.

DEALING with obedience under the New Testament has to be understood in relation with the finished or accomplished work of Christ.
The question is: Are we called to obey the Word of God or enjoy or enter into Jesus Christ’s obedience?
One may quickly conclude that we’re advocating for rebellion. No, we are not. There are many pertinent and arising issues we should address.
A straight answer deprives us of the knowledge needed in the faith.
