Why Should Christians Assist the Poor? By Babatunde Olugboji Firstly, there are the overarching directives found in Scripture. Jesus stated, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:39). If we truly love someone who is in need, we will naturally desire to assist that individual. Additionally, Jesus remarked, “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 5:16). If we aim to allow the “light” of our actions to illuminate the lives of others, it is imperative that we extend our help…
Why Ahithophel Turned Against David – By Babatunde Olugboji The Bible does not explicitly state Ahithophel’s motives for betraying David. However, it informs us that David’s trusted adviser switched allegiance to Absalom (2 Samuel 15:12), provided coldly calculated and politically astute advice to facilitate the coup (2 Samuel 16:20–22; 17:1–4), and ultimately took his own life when his counsel was disregarded (2 Samuel 17:23).

Demonic oppression refers to the external impact of demonic entities that induce emotional, psychological, or physical suffering in an individual. Although demons have the capacity to oppress or demonise, they remain ultimately under the authority of Christ. Demonic oppression, more accurately termed demonisation, as outlined in the Bible, is a genuine and complex matter. Both the Old and New Testaments validate the presence and actions of demons, with examples ranging from severe possession to more subtle influences. Major demonisation,…
