THIS EVIL MUST STOP
By Prophet Dr TB Bondera
Eccl.6.1 – There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:
Today, I want to talk about an evil that I have seen under the sun, and it is common among all man, both believers and non-believers, leaders in church and children of the ministry.
Why is it easier to start a conversation with a stranger on a bus and talk about your favourite sport for hundreds of kilometres, defending your favourite team with all the statistics and names. At the same time, it is very difficult for you to start the conversation with that same stranger and discuss your faith, quoting just one verse from the Bible.
Why is it that if you post a Scripture on social media handles, you will be lucky to have two or three comments or likes and yet when you post a certain joke, every bystander and spectator comes down from the terraces to come and be the first one to comment. Churches and church leaders have to pay money to boost followers on their social media pages and yet the same media pages of the so-called content creators grow on their own without any payment as we all flock to follow these pages. In fact, I have seen that the sillier or more ridiculous the “content” is, the faster the pages grow. Are we saying this content from these so-called content creators is more important than the content from the Creator of all the universe.
A few weeks ago, there was a story on social media of a blood brother and sister who were in an incestuous relationship who were asking for a substantial amount of money to fight the legal battles concerning their plans to get married. Surprisingly, they had already raised a substantial amount of their target with more pledges from more sympathisers coming. Try setting up a similar appeal for financial assistance for the work of God to move forward, and all hell will break loose. You will be blasted left, right and centre from non-believers, and surprisingly, believers alike. It is much easier to fundraise for any evil under the sun that you can think of than it is for the work of God.
For today, as you are preparing to go to church, I will leave you pondering on these and will conclude this message tomorrow. DO NOT MISS IT.
TODAY’S MEDITATION
