What can we liken the grace of God in Christ Jesus?

Grace is like a lawyer who took up our defence in the court of heaven, pleading with the blood of Christ until we were set free.

Hallelujah — we are free! "If the Son shall set you free, you shall be free indeed!"

But that lawyer did not simply es**rt us out of the courtroom. No — he followed us home, sat us down, and showed us how to live rightly so we could truly enjoy our newfound freedom.

"For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us to deny all ungodliness and to live soberly in this present world."

He instructed us: "Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness — rather, expose them."
⁸
And with tenderness he added: "Little children, if any man sins, we have an Advocate with the Father — Jesus Christ, the righteous One."

Yet he also warned: "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God?" And again — "Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?"

The grace that saved us is the same grace that can keep us from falling.

But when we do fall, we must never abuse grace by treating sin as though it does not matter.

That is why Scripture declares: "Let him who thinks he stands take heed, lest he fall."
The testimony of God is sure.

There is no room for careless living — no such thing as super grace. We are commanded to watch, to pray, and to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling.

May this saving Grace, the purifying grace find expression in our lives, Amen!

WHAT IS REALLY BEING SOLD
—————————————————
The hyper-grace movement has become, in many cases, a marketing strategy dressed in theological language.

The message is engineered to attract — yahoo boys, backsliders, street girls, fraudsters, and everyone running from accountability.

And it works, because the human heart is always looking for permission to remain unchanged.
But what they are building is not a church. It is a crowd.

And there is a difference.
Jesus warned about this. He spoke of those who would say "Lord, Lord" — and He would respond:
"I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." — Matthew 7:23

The frightening part? They believed they were covered. They thought they were secure.

WE ARE NOT PREACHING PERFECTION

Let this be clear: no one is demanding sinless perfection. We all stumble. We all fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)

But there is a world of difference between:
→ A believer who FALLS and repents, and
→ A believer who REFUSES TO RISE because a preacher told them it does not matter.

John said it plainly:
"My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." — 1 John 2:1

The goal is still holiness. The provision is still mercy. Both must stand.

"Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." — Hebrews 12:14

A WORD TO THOSE BUILDING ON THIS FOUNDATION

Those who are constructing congregations on the foundation of "grace without transformation" will one day inherit the culture they encouraged.

In a few years, the fruits of that preaching will be undeniable — in broken homes, unrepentant lives, and a generation that knows how to shout hallelujah but does not know how to deny self.

Paul warned Timothy:
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears." — 2 Timothy 4:3

We are living in that time. And the answer is not to shout louder — it is to preach cleaner.

𝑺𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒉.
Grace is not the absence of standards. Grace is the power to meet them.

"The Lord is gracious and full of compassion." — Psalm 111:4

And it is that same compassion that refuses to leave you the way it found you.

WHEN GRACE MISSES THE MARK:
Rediscovering Grace and Truth through Christ and the Apostles Pt1

There is a version of grace being preached today that sounds too good to question — and that is precisely why it is dangerous.

The message goes something like this: "You are eternally secure. God sees only the finished work of Christ. Sin is already forgiven — past, present, and future. Just believe and relax."

And while there is a kernel of truth buried in there, what is being served to the congregation is a half-gospel — and a half-gospel is a whole deception.

Grace Has Two Sides
The Apostle Paul was crystal clear. He did not separate the legal from the vital. He held them together with both hands.

The legal side declares:
"By grace are ye saved through faith… not of works, lest any man should boast." — Ephesians 2:8-9 ✅
But grace does not stop at the courtroom. It walks you home and changes how you live.

The vital side declares:
"For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world." — Titus 2:11-12

Did you see that? Grace TEACHES. Grace disciplines. Grace transforms.

Any version of grace that does not teach you to deny ungodliness is not the grace of Scripture — it is a substitute.

Paul Anticipated This Perversion

He saw it coming. That is why he asked:
"Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?" — Romans 6:1

And he did not pause to deliberate. He thundered back:
"God forbid! How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?" — Romans 6:2

He went further:
"Our old man is crucified with him… that henceforth we should not serve sin." — Romans 6:6

"Put off therefore the old man and his works." — Colossians 3:9

And with unmistakable clarity:

"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?" — 1 Corinthians 6:9
He then listed specific sins — sexual immorality, idolatry, greed, drunkenness — and said these must not even be named among the saints. (Ephesians 5:3)

This was not Moses speaking. This was Paul — the Apostle of Grace.

LOVE THAT CONQUERS

I am fully persuaded—
deep in my soul, beyond doubt, beyond fear—
that nothing… no height, no depth, no past mistake, no unseen battle
can separate us from the love of God
that is in Christ Jesus.

This love—
it isn’t distant, it isn’t theoretical—
it’s been poured out, spilled wide
into our hearts
by the Holy Spirit.

And listen—
what God has prepared for us?
Eyes haven’t seen it.
Ears haven’t heard it.
Human imagination hasn’t even brushed against it.

Because Christ—
He didn’t just rise, He reigns.
Head over every power, every system, every force
seen and unseen.

He is our righteousness—
not earned, not borrowed, but given.
He stands as the mediator
of a better covenant,
built on better promises.

So if one man’s disobedience
shifted the whole story—
if through Adam, sin found its way in—

then how much more…
how much more
does life rise, does grace abound,
does righteousness reign

through the obedience of One—
Jesus Christ.

And now—
we don’t just survive…
we reign in life
through Him.

Yours in Him,
Motayo Samie

HOW TO ROB YOUR CHURCH AND STILL BE HOLY:
9 Dangerous Thieves in Pentecostal Churches

Ever wonder why some church rats suddenly become overnight Richie?

You dey look your life, look their life, nothing balance.

E get scope.

And today, I can show you… for just a shikini registration fee.

Are you ready?
Let’s start from the beginning.

1. THE OFFERING RAIDERS
These are your regular senior ushers and offering counters. A tight caucus within the system—trusted, familiar, almost like family friends. But their real service begins when offering starts. Tithe envelopes, special seeds, pastor’s appreciation—anything within reach is negotiable. If it can be handled, it can be withheld.

2. THE FOOD FRAMERS
The most presentable, the most “hallelujah-looking.” But their belly comes first. Any church event involving food, they must be in charge. Their car boot doubles as storage. Wedding in Sokoto? Burial in Bauchi? If cow is involved, they arrive three days early—fully “committed to service.” And yes, they love God… deeply.

3. THE PROCUREMENT PADDERS
They control spending. Every purchase passes through them. In partnership with vendors, prices are inflated, supplies reduced, receipts adjusted creatively. Many of them are permanently “available,” so church becomes their full-time office. Week in, week out—faithful attendance, strategic ex*****on.

4. THE PROGRAM PLUNDERERS
They love organizing events—conferences, anniversaries, revivals. They will eagerly collect contributions and coordinate everything. What you don’t see is the quiet diversion. Funds develop wings. They may not be unemployed, but greed has clearly employed them full-time.

5. THE PROJECT PARASITES
Big men. Big grammar. Bigger control. They take charge of church projects and align with contractors. Cement reduces, rods disappear, sand trips multiply on paper. Budgets expand miraculously. Ironically, they are the loudest when giving testimonies—“God has done it again!”

6. THE PROPERTY PATCHERS
They specialize in helping the church acquire land and buildings. Always networking, always negotiating. But somehow, a 10 million deal becomes 15 million—with a generous “God bless you, sir.” Everyone involved smiles. The church pays the difference.

7. THE BURGLAR’S BACKERS
These ones come with a “redeemed past.” Former street operators turned saints—or so it seems. Quietly, they maintain external connections. One night, the church is cleared—equipment gone, instruments missing. Even Sunday parking is not entirely safe. Transformation still ongoing.

8. THE PREDATORY PAs
Gatekeepers of access. You don’t see “Daddy” without passing through them. And access is not free. Every gift—cash, jewelry, even vehicles—passes through their hands first. Some items never make it to the final destination. They may even call you later, imitating “Daddy’s voice,” to pray for you. Service delivery.

9. THE SIMONY SIGNATORIES
These are the professionals. Parallel accounts opened in the church or GO’s name—sometimes in the same bank. Signatures replicated, contact details controlled. The pastor remains unaware. They target widows, retirees, and civil servants—encouraging “dangerous seeds.” If the bank calls to confirm, prophecy is delivered over the phone. If a banker shows up physically, spiritual diversion begins immediately—prayers, confusion, quick exit.

FINAL QUESTION
But wait…why is it that these same people are always the ones prospering?

New car. New house.

Jowo, japa, joro, jara, extra blessings everywhere—everything just aligns like Akowonjo.

Abi make we join the ministry?
God forbid bad thing! 😄

I recently watched a panel featuring Yemi Osinbajo, Olumide Emmanuel, Korede Komaiya, and Charles Osazuwa. They discussed leadership, the church, and the prosperity gospel.

The conversation started off thoughtful and grounded.

It took a different turn during Pastor Korede’s contribution. His delivery was more intense. It also felt less aligned with the scriptural and historical depth the others presented.

He referenced Gospel of Matthew 28:11–15. He used it to support his view that since money was used to spread a lie countering Christ’s resurrection, the church also needs resources to spread the truth.

This analogy was respectfully challenged by the other panelists. They contrasted it with Christ’s refusal of worldly gain. It highlighted a clear difference in perspective.
