Teen revived after 20 minutes with no pulse said he saw Jesus

A 17-year-old Texas high school student claims he saw Jesus after he collapsed in gym class and was without a heartbeat for 20 minutes. Zack Clements suffered sudden cardiac arrest at Victory Life Academy on May 5 and was unresponsive. But just as doctors were about to declare him dead after 20 minutes, he revived.

How To Deal With The Past

Case study

A young lady got pregnant mistakenly for a friend of hers who was engaged to be married. They both were just friends until they got drunk at a mutual friend's party and did it.
She definitely could not afford to keep the baby because the guys fiancee is more or less a sister to her. So, she had an abortion.

She met a young man who proposed marriage to her. She loves him so much that she's afraid to lose him. But she's confused because she does not know if she should tell him about her past or not.

I shared the above scenerio online and it sparked an interesting conversation with Gbenga Tade. Read an extract from his response below.

30 Golden Rules for a Godly Woman

I could not resist to share this with you. I saw it somewhere.

1). Never raise your voice for any reason to your husband. Its a sign of disrespect.(Prov 15v1)

2). Don't expose your husband's weaknesses to your family and friends. You are each others keeper.(Eph 5v12)

3). Never use attitudes and moods to communicate to your husband, you never know how your husband will interpret them.(Prov 15v13)

4). Never compare your husband to other men, you've no idea what their life is all about.

5).  Never ill treat your husband's friends because you don't like them, the person who's supposed to get rid of them is your husband.(Prov 11v22)

When People Leave Your Church… and It’s Okay

When is it okay for a member or attender of your church to leave?

First, let's state the obvious. It's never just "okay." When someone leaves by choice to go to another church in your community, it's a dagger through the heart. If someone says differently, they're lying. Few things are taken more personally by church leaders, and the community left behind, than someone leaving. It feels like rejection, abandonment, even betrayal.

But that doesn't mean that sometimes a departure can't be a good thing.

For example:

WELCOME TO MAY!!

I welcome you all to this new month with a word from Prophet T.D. Jakes as shared on IG.

So live like no man's business but all God's business. Stay blessed.

Indonesia Executes 8 People, Convicts Praise God before Death

Eight men who were executed in Indonesia this week reportedly prayed the Lord's Prayer just before they were killed.

According to Christian Today, Pastor Karina de Vega was counseling Nigerian prisoner Okwudili Oyatanze and heard the prisoners singing "Bless the Lord O My Soul" and "Amazing Grace" as they were lined up for execution by firing squad.

The eight men refused to wear blindfolds.

"They were praising their God," Vega told the Sydney Morning Herald. "It was breath-taking. This was the first time I witnessed someone so excited to meet their God."

What Should the Church Say to Bruce Jenner?

Nearly 17 million people watched Olympic champion Bruce Jenner tell ABC's Diane Sawyer, "for all intents and purposes, I'm a woman."  Time magazine has called the transgender movement he represents, "America's next civil-rights frontier."

What should the church say to Bruce Jenner?  Let's consider medical perspective on gender confusion (called "gender dysphoria"), then seek theological wisdom.

Paul McHugh is the former psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital, where sex-reassignment surgery was first performed in the 1960s.  He writes in The Wall Street Journal: "policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention."
