The Kingdom PRECECPTS

THE BIBLICAL MUSLIM This piece attempts a brief examination of attitudes and practices which are considered obligatory to Muslims which also corresponds with certain Biblical injunctions and/or practices that Christians these days either observe with levity and complacency or simply neglect all together. It is intended to educate Christians to whom both Muslims and Islam has remained an enigma, with the hope of challenging us as Christians to be more dedicated to the Christ we believe and be better Muslim evangelists at every given opportunity. CONFESSION OF FAITH/CREED OR WITNESSING – SHAHADAH : For the Muslim this is the words of witness or testimony (Shahadah), it is recited by the Muslims everyday of their lives in the course worship/prayer. The creed; Lailla illallahu Mohammadu rasul Ullah, which literarily means: there’s no God but Allah and Mohammad is his prophet, is repeated by the Muslim who hears it, it is recited in the ears new-born babes and proclaimed by the lips

A Missionary is basically a disciple of Jesus Christ living among those people who are not, one committed to the   fulfillment of the great commission: Preaching the gospel of the Kingdom, Baptizing and Making Disciples as instructed in Matthew 28:19-20. By this definition every Christian, follower or Disciple of Jesus Christ should be a Missionary by default, living solely for the purpose of advancing the kingdom irrespective of whatever capacity or sphere of influence he she commands. This task of preaching the gospel and making disciple of all people in our sphere of influence and beyond is not and should not be restricted to a few people through making of distinctions between “the Clergy” and “the Laity”, after all Christianity was never intended by God to be another religion because enough of those religions existed before Christ came.

Founder; Calvary Ministries(CAPRO), Agape Missions & Evangelistic Network(AMEN) and President; Association of Christian Schools in Nigeria Question:   Sir, as a founding father of CAPRO, can U briefly explain the Circumstances that led to the Birth of CAPRO?

There are several islands spread across the Atlantic Coast in the Oriade local government council development area. The topography of these areas can make any horticulturist go green in envy; it is a Treasure Island, Nigeria’s own Eldorado. Little wonder tourists all over the world visit these islands without costs. The serene islands boast of beautiful beaches and coconut the denizen of the coastal seas spread elegantly all over the coasts. However, life in these islands is not as beautiful as the islands. No social infrastructure; electricity, pipe borne water, schools, hospitals. There, lifestyle is purely hedonistic, occultic and paganistic. Thank God for men and women He is using to reach out to these people. The church has always been and is purely an instrument of change in the area through the instrumentality of God’s word.
