The Shepherd is slaughtering the sheep

Once upon a time, a flock owner asked his shepherd to take his sheep to graze. Because they will be away for some days, the flock owner provided him with food, water, amoury and first aid. In fact, he made sure he lacked nothing so as to take good care of his flock.
After a few days and when the shepherd realized they had gone farther into the bush and no one seem to be in sight, he slaughtered one sheep, prepared khebab and grilled some for food – even though his master had provided him with everything.

After their long say in the bush grazing, they returned home. The flock owner on seeing the sheep realized the number had reduced. Upon interrogation, the shepherd admitted the offence and was asked to pay for the lost sheep and never return to the sheep fold again.

We have heard recent reports of sexual abuse by some men of God. The Bible specifically points out that in the end time false prophets will come in their numbers and lead people astray. My point is that their actions in the past and in recent times is only fulfilling scripture, else the Bible will be lying and you and I know God does not lie. It is just a matter of studying the scripture to understand what God really requires of us, so that if a man of God ask you to bring milo, sugar, milk, corned beef and bread for him to fast and pray for you or allow yourself to be bathed by him at the beach, you know what he is up to. “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth, But shun profane and vane babblings; for they will increase unto more ungodliness” (2 Timothy 2:15-16).

Dear Sir, In adding my voice to the numerous befitting tributes occasioned by your untimely departure from this ‘terra firma’, I evoked this Roman Catholic prayer for the dead translated from Latin into English as: “May the angels take you into Paradise, may the martyrs welcome you on your way and lead you into the Holy City Jerusalem. May the choir of angels welcome you, and with Lazarus who once was poor, may you have everlasting rest.” I am convinced Jehovah heard and answered our prayers. Please prepare a place for us; for here is still hot and the unreasonableness and the political chicanery continues unabated. Sometimes I wonder whether this whole calling – politics, is worth it. Prof., for the purpose of this first letter I will not bore you with too voluminous a piece because I am aware you are a fresher (‘homo’) who has just joined the Dr Hilla Limanns, Munufies, the D.F. Annans, the Ala Adjeteys, the B.J. Da Rochas and many others who went long before you, so you must be ...
