In numerous countries, witchcraft-related beliefs and practices have resulted in severe human rights violations, including beatings, banishment, cutting of body parts, amputation of limbs, torture and murder. As a result, women, children, the elderly, and persons with disabilities, particularly albinism, are vulnerable. What does the Bible say about witchcraft?

Many Africans, Christian or not, live in fear of generational curses. When misfortunes hit, they want to know who might have bewitched them. Non-Christians may turn to the witch doctor while believers seek a deliverance minister to diagnose their problem and prescribe necessary spiritual steps forward. But why is this so? What does the Bible teach about curses? Can Christians be cursed? And how should a believer live in the light of witchcraft, which is prevalent across Africa?

Living a virtuous life would be almost universally agreed upon as a good thing. We also desire to live a good and moral life that everyone respects. A virtuous life is believed to help us attain some higher level of being or at least keep us from being punished by God. Based on that belief, many religions, even Christian leaders, have created a moral code on how to live.

Modern secular culture, defined in a simple phrase, would be the “authority of self.” Authority of self in that I do what feels best and makes me the happiest. We hear phrases beating this mantra, saying, “do what makes you happy.” We also hear people saying “YOLO” (You Only Live Once) and other phrases such as “self-love.” These popular phrases are just repeating the authority of self-belief systems. Authority of self seeks to make you believe that nothing or no one is more important than yourself. It seeks to shift all your attention to who you are; based on that, you have all the power within to do all you want to do if only you can look deep down within. It is a push towards self-worship and elevation of pride that “you are self-made, self-direct, self-determine.”.

This podcast, “Authority of Self”, is not an original idea to Kuza. These thoughts are adapted from Natasha Crain’s book “Faithfully Different. (https://store.focusonthefamily.com/faithfully-different/)

Therefore, tell others that Christmas is truly about. It is about Christ coming to save us from our sins. It is about sin being taken away. Amidst the celebrations, let us remember that Christ was born to do. Celebrate and enjoy the festivities, but not without knowledge. Just as we are not to mourn like those who are without hope, we should also not celebrate as those who are without knowledge. Merry Christmas, Jesus came, Jesus saves, and Jesus takes away your sins, and Jesus destroyed the works of the devil! Hallelujah!

Being in ministry is like being a waiter at a restaurant. Unlike other professions where you can study for them and acquire skills, being a Christian minister does not simply occur because you are skilled. Most fundamentally, in Christian ministry, God is the one who chooses those whom he calls to work in his vineyard. So the question Am I called to ministry? Can be rephrased as Has God called me to serve him and his people? Read today’s blog for some things to consider if you are wondering if you are called to ministry.

In the Old Testament times, God spoke to our fathers through the prophets; in the new testament times, he spoke to us through his son, our Lord Jesus Christ (Hebrews 1:1-2). And today, we know that he speaks to us by His Spirit (Revelation 1:7, 11, 17, 29). He wants to speak to you, but are you listening? What does his voice sound like?
