So the bible says that Christ is the only way to everlasting life and there is no other name by which men can be saved (Acts 4:12). Now, I’ve heard some sceptics say that the God of the bible must then be unkind and extremely unfair, to judge everyone based on their acceptance of Christ, without caring that there were some who lived before Christ came to the world.

Frankly, I have thought of this many times myself...

As I put together today’s episode, I remembered how, many years ago, I was going out with a group to talk to people in the neighbourhood about Christ. The leader of our group asked us specifically, not to mention anything about hell or judgement, as we approached people to preach to them, so as not to make them uncomfortable and you know, jeopardize our mission. He asked us to just invite them to church...

I heard a prominent, internationally renowned preacher declare that he, his listeners and by inference, all believers, are equal to God. He based this on the scripture that says “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God.” Now let’s take a moment to read the scripture from which the preacher deduced that believers must not think it as robbery to be equal to God...

Have you met someone who is so weighed down by their flaws and inadequacies that they feel disqualified? Someone whose past is stopping them from pursuing a more intimate relationship with God? Have you met someone like that? Or is that someone, you?

Many times in the bible, those were just the kinds of people God used for spectacular things. The weak, the despised, the least likely; those were the ones He used to carry out his plans...

Almost every day, I find people in the social media space who are completely disenchanted with Christianity. I know some personally, who years after, are still bitter about experiences with abuse and falsehood they saw and suffered in church. Many times, these are valid feelings, borne out of real and painful experiences...

Happy Easter to everyone listening in. At Easter, we celebrate the foundation of our faith, because as 1 Cor15:14 puts it, without the resurrection, our faith is useless. So we give God praise for the gift of the resurrection.

Speaking of gifts, I’ve heard of several instances where people sowed as seeds in church, their family houses or cars; things that did not solely belong to them to begin with...

In this week’s episode, we will be building on a few points raised from last week. So if you haven’t listened to the African Christian part 1, this is a good time to do so.

The relationship between Africa and the Bible did not start with colonialism, but is as old as the bible itself. Africans lived among the Israelites in bible times and were some of Christianity’s earliest worshippers and theologians...

Hello and welcome back to a brand new season of Verify Podcast! Today’s episode may seem tailor made for our listeners from Africa, but if you’re listening from some other part of the world, I’m quite sure you’ll be able to relate, so please stay tuned.

So I’ve heard professing Christians contemplate on how our indigenous African Traditional Religion was working just fine for us before the Europeans introduced Christianity to the continent...

In 2019, I developed severe medical complications during the birth of my child. I was not expected to survive the ordeal and at several points that year, I was called a medical miracle. 2 years ago, Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), did an interview of my family and I, which has just been released and is currently showing on about 200 TV stations across Africa and the world. Please listen and share this, to encourage, to revive and to remind someone that God still works miracles...

Before I go into today’s episode, I will like to announce that this is the last episode of the first season of Verify Podcast. After today’s episode, I will be taking a break for a few weeks, after which I will be back for a second season. During the break, I will share a video or two and I pray that they will keep our minds occupied with thoughts of God’s greatness. Also, please feel free to listen to old episodes and beyond just listening, verify all that you hear. Now to today’s episode...
