PRIESTHOOD POWER IS TO DO GOOD.

We know and understand that the priesthood is the eternal power and authority of God. We can easily recite this definition from memory. However, do we truly comprehend the significance of what we’re saying? Let me repeat: the priesthood is the eternal power and authority of God.

Through this power, He redeems and exalts His children, bringing “to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.” (Moses 1:39).

TODAY'S NIGERIA AND OUR FUTURE I have being pondering of late the cause my country Nigeria is taking, with the present captains, the prophesy of Paul the Apostle in 2 Timothy 3: 1-5 come to mind, that " in the last days perilous times shall come.  " For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,  " Without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,  "Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;   " Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away"  Thank you Apostle Paul, for X-raying our present day Nigeria.  In present day Nigeria, there is no doubt that we live in the perilous time, very precarious days.
