Celebrate The Savior

Time is flying by so fast! The month of April is upon us friends, and we begin the second quarter of 2026! It seems as if we were just saying, Happy New Year a few weeks ago. The month of April is a big one for followers of Jesus Christ globally. We get to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ! Hallelujah to the Lamb of God and the King of kings! Happy birthday blessing to everyone celebrating this month.

Religious Idol

Wow! The responses from last post (When Faith Speaks: Reflecting Christ in an Upside‑Down World), was evidence that the religious idol was stirred. Some people really do not believe that Jesus Christ is for everyone. Some people do not believe that anyone can be saved by God’s amazing grace. And some people do not believe that Jesus Christ is the Person and only way of bridging the eternal gap humans have with God. A shoutout of appreciation to friends, fellow followers of Christ and spiritual leaders across different movements for your feedback and prayers. They were felt and have been wind of flight even for this post. The pursuit is always in obedience, honor and glory to God.

Biblical Truth

Get ready for the religious idol to be toppled over with this post. Never would we have thought we would be at a place in our world, where we have to state that there are only two genders- male and female. This is not just a Bible truth; it is a human reality. Why would a man want to play in women’s sports? And why would a woman want to play in men’s sports? Such questions are just difficult to make sense of.

Design of Humans

A man cannot be a woman. A woman cannot be a man. A male does not have a womb as in a uterus. A female has a womb as in a uterus. This is why women are the only ones God created with the capacity and ability to carry a child. The design of humans began with Genesis 1:27, “So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them.”

Sad State of Confusion

It is a sad state of things, when children are confused thinking there are multiple genders they can select from and they can change their gender, like they change their clothes. And parents are confused about how to help their little children change their genders. It almost feels like we are in a time capsule. What happened to us as the leading nation in the world, that we have so much confusion on basic foundational truth. In a time where we are seeing people twist the Word of God for all kind of reasons, it has become a jungle out there! Yet the Bible provides clarity amidst the confusion. Please pay attention followers of Christ. You are Christ’s ambassadors and He is counting on you to live out loud for Him!

“For you created my inmost being you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well.” – Psalm 139: 13-14.
