All my life, I wondered how the Holocaust could have happened. I understood that Hitler & others were EVIL, but how did millions of ordinary people go along with it?

NOW, seeing how so many in the West rationalise & defend the Gaza Genocide, I feel I have an answer and it is profoundly disturbing

It’s like Nigerians do not know what this means. The whole nation should be aggrieved right now.
A Senator has just confirmed to you that since Tinubu came to power, he has not implemented any budget.

For context ₦21.8 TRILLION in 2023, ₦28.8 TRILLION in 2024, and ₦49.7 TRILLION in 2025 is MISSING.
This is your blood and sweat Nigerians.

Where is the money?

There is a major gap in Africa’s content strategy and creation. We tend to idolize people who society easily resonates with, while often neglecting those who are truly talented.

The culture will eventually adjust, but first we need to cleanse our mindset. We must start giving recognition to those who genuinely deserve it, and the industry will grow and thrive for generations.

These days, the Bible has been hitting different. Verses I’ve read a hundred times are suddenly feeling as if I am seeing them for the first time. I don’t know how to explain it, but Joshua 5:13 and 14 is one of those for me.

This morning I was reading through Joshua again, just doing my slow walk from Genesis to Revelation, and this part stopped me.

Joshua looks up and there’s a Man standing there with a sword drawn. Joshua asks, “Are You for us or for our enemies?” And the Man says, “No, but as Commander of the Lord’s army I’ve come.”

That did something to me.

It reminded me I don’t walk into any battle alone. God doesn’t just send me out and hope I figure it out. He goes ahead of me. When He tells me to be still and let Him fight, I can actually rest in that.

Whatever I’m facing today, He’s already standing there first.

Christ, the Commander of Heaven’s army, has my back. And if you love Him and trust Him, He’s got yours too.

A WHITE LION IS A PRODUCT OF FORBIDDEN RELATION

When you see a white lion, you'll appreciate the beauty. Sometimes, the racial inferiority complex in some makes them think it's superior or holy or pure. These are all far from the truth and I'll explain.

Before, when lion population was still thriving well in the wild, the population ratio of white lion to normal brown ones was pegged around 1 in 20,000. You can see how rare that is. Why?

When male lions reach 2-3 years, before they're sexually mature, they're ejected from the pride. One of the advantage of this is that it will not get the chance to mate with his sisters and mother. Even though the female cubs will remain in the pride, they mostly avoid mating with their fathers by going outside the pride to mate. Luckily for them and unluckily for the male, he will not even last long as the leader of the pride. In a pride led by more than one male, the females know to mate with another Male other than their father.

The summary of all these is that lions, other big cats and many animal avoid inbreeding, which we call incest in the human language as it is not good for genetics. All these I have explained is what happens in the wild, under normal conditions.

In captivity however, because there isn't choices, male lions can mate with their mothers, sisters or daughters. The resulting offsprings will have some genetic deficiencies. If the offsprings are also crossbred, their own offspring will even be worse and one observable feature you would see is lighter and lighter colour till you reach white.

This rarely happen in the wild. Even if a single lion is born from inbreeding in the wild, it will mate with another individual that's not related to it and they will cancel out the genetic anomaly in a few years.

So, every time you see a white lion, most especially in captivity, there's nothing majestic about it. They're the handiwork of wicked breeders who subjected them to continuous inbreeding. Many lions would have died as cubs before they will get one that will live. Even at that, a white lion is more prone to death and diseases than the coloured ones.

Title: The Folded Napkins

The Gospel of John records a small but deeply meaningful detail about the resurrection of Jesus: the face cloth that had covered His head was found folded and placed by itself in the tomb. At first glance, this may seem insignificant, but within the Jewish cultural and burial context of the first century, this detail carries profound spiritual meaning and strengthens the truth of the resurrection.

In John 20:6–7, when Peter entered the tomb, he saw the linen cloths lying there, and the face cloth, which had been on Jesus’ head, not lying with the linen wrappings but folded and placed separately. John does not write this as a random observation. As a Jew writing to readers familiar with Jewish customs, he records this detail deliberately, knowing it would communicate something important.

To understand this, we must first understand Jewish burial practices at the time of Jesus. Unlike Egyptian embalming, Jewish burial involved washing the body, anointing it with spices, and wrapping it in long linen strips. The head was covered separately with a cloth, often called a face cloth or napkin. This cloth was used to cover the face, partly for dignity and partly because death was considered ceremonially unclean under the Law of Moses. Everything about burial was done with reverence and order.

When a tomb was robbed or disturbed in haste, the wrappings would be torn apart or scattered. Grave robbers had no reason to unwrap a body neatly, much less fold anything. If someone had stolen Jesus’ body, the cloths would not have been left behind in an orderly manner. The presence of the linen cloths lying there already speaks against the idea of theft, but the folded face cloth goes even further. It shows calmness, intention, and control. Resurrection was not a chaotic escape from the tomb; it was a deliberate act of divine power.

In Jewish culture, order and meaning were attached to actions, especially in formal or covenantal settings. Folding a cloth was not accidental. It showed completion, purpose, and respect. Jesus did not rise in panic or confusion. He rose as Lord, fully aware, fully victorious over death. The folded face cloth silently declares that death did not interrupt Him, He interrupted death.

There is also a well-known tradition often mentioned within Jewish teaching culture about a master and his servant at a meal. When the master was finished eating, he would wipe his hands and mouth and throw the napkin down, signaling that the meal was over. But if he folded the napkin and placed it beside his plate, it meant he was not finished and would return. While this specific custom is debated among historians and is not directly stated in Scripture, it reflects a broader Jewish understanding that folded items carried intention and meaning. Whether or not this exact tradition applies, the symbolism fits beautifully with the message of the resurrection. Jesus was not finished. His work on the cross was finished, but His mission was not over. He would rise, appear to His disciples, ascend to the Father, and one day return in glory.

More importantly, the folded face cloth speaks theologically. In Jewish thought, the face represents identity and presence. Moses veiled his face after encountering God’s glory. The high priest entered God’s presence with careful preparation. For Jesus’ face cloth to be folded and set aside signifies that the covering of death was removed permanently. Death no longer had authority to cover Him. He laid it aside Himself.

This detail also contrasts sharply with Lazarus’ resurrection. When Lazarus came out of the tomb, he was still bound in grave clothes, and Jesus commanded others to loose him. Lazarus returned to mortal life and would die again. Jesus, however, left His grave clothes behind. He would never die again. The folded face cloth testifies that Jesus’ resurrection was of a different order entirely. It was not a resuscitation but a victory over death itself.

For the early Jewish believers, this would have been a powerful sign. God is a God of order, not confusion. From creation to the Law to the Temple worship, everything God established followed divine order. The resurrection continues this pattern. Even in triumph over death, there is peace, intention, and meaning.

For believers today, the folded face cloth still speaks. It tells us that Jesus is alive, not stolen, not imagined, not symbolically risen, but physically and gloriously resurrected. It tells us that He is in control, that nothing caught Him by surprise, not betrayal, not the cross, not the tomb. And it reminds us that the story is not over. The same Jesus who calmly folded the cloth and walked out of the grave will return, just as He promised.

Up Next is the "Casting Lots at the cross".. A hidden sign of God's plan.

[Chad Bird @birdchadlouis]

Not a single word from Abel is recorded in Scripture. Cain murders him, and Cain has something to say. But the victim of violence? the recipient of hate? the righteous one? Not a syllable.

Cain has words, Abel none.

But Abel does speak in a different language. He utters crimson eloquence, red rhetoric so profound his speech pierces heaven's veil to lodge in the ears of God.

How so? The Lord says, "The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground" (Gen. 4:10).

You see what's happening?

1. Blood has a voice.
2. Blood cries out to God.
3. Blood is heard by heaven.

Far, far later, the author of Hebrews wrote about another crimson eloquence, about more red rhetoric. He says that the blood of Jesus "speaks better than the blood of Abel" (12:24).

Whatever Abel's blood said to God, Christ's blood said it better.

The voice of Jesus's blood, crying out from the ground beneath the cross, piercing the heavens, lodging in the ears of God, speaks one and only one message: "Father, forgive them."

That eloquent blood pronounces the absolution of the world, you included.

Believe it. It is for you.
