QUOTABLE QUOTES
QUOTABLE QUOTES
• Laugher is the most civilized music in the world
• Somehow, the better we are, the better the people are that we meet.
• There are two things that raise a man above earthly things – simplicity and purity
• There are two kinds of people who don’t say much, those who are quite and those who talk a lot.
• We praise a man who is angry on the right ground, against the right persons, in the right manner, at the right moment and for the right length of time.
• Do all the good you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all times you can, to all people you can, as long as you ever can.
• Life with Christ is an endless hope; without him a hopeless end.
SEVEN MODERN SINS
• Politics without principle
• Pleasures without conscience
• Wealth without work
• Knowledge without character
• Industry without morality
• Science without God
• Worship without sacrifice

THE CRIES FROM THE JUNGLE
THE CRIES FROM THE JUNGLE
From the land of the morning sun that borders the plain of the Sahara, down to the shores of the Atlantic, on the continent of Africa, thrives a divine vision; one given years ahead of time, of generation yet born, who will serve the Lord in a different and unique way.
The prophecy sounded like: “A time will come when the Nigerian Government would be paying the Nigerian Youth to preach the Gospel in all nook and crannies of the country.” This was unknown to the then Gen. Gowon led Government that established the National Youth Service Corps Scheme [NYSC] in 1973.
The Nigerian Christian Corpers’ Fellowship [NCCF] came into existence in fulfillment of this prophesy given some years ago by Pa. S.G. Elton, a notable British Missionary. Mid October, 2007.
These missionary journeys were rough, really ‘rugged’ through the jungles of some parts of the state. Our skin and blood became feed for the insects [Mosquitoes] like that of the rural dwellers. The cold and sleepless night on hard surface which serves as mattress and the surrounding forest were challenging. While the sticky muddy earth of the rainy season wore out our boots and shoes, “Eya! Sorry Corpers,” was the greetings from most of the villagers. But the situation was the other way round they were the ones we pity most. They deeply appreciate our coming. “God sent you to help us, thank God…… We were like forgotten people.” ‘No teacher to teach our children, no doctor to help our sick people, we have to cross rivers or travel miles on these bad roads to the big towns for medical attentions.”
These were some of their complaints. The day we were leaving Nselle [One of the villages we visited], I wept in my heart when on of the neighbouring villagers begged us to come to their village. I stood helpless all I could do as to pray for divine assistance. All this period, what were engaged in spiritual welfare, spreading the gospel of Christ Jesus, counseling the villagers against the dangers of HIV/AIDS, rendering some social services such as giving free drugs [by the help of our Medical Corpers] to the sick and donation of clothes to the villagers.
Dear reader, permit me to ask you this question, what have you done to impact something positive in the lives of someone else? Have you saved someone life from perishing? Well if your question is yes please keep doing the good work because your reward is in heaven, even if your answer is no within your heart think of something to do to help someone, it is not too late to do that. START NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
