Rapture: Will it happen?

This morning a dear friend and member of the Monteèclairs Transformation Initiative Ambassadors, Christy Hobbs, had a dream about rapture. I could relate because I've had similar encounter,  twice, and it makes you examine your faith and relationship with God. Anyway, this sparked a conversation in the whatsapp group  on what rapture is and if the bible backs it up.  First,  the dream in her own words... "Early hours of this morning (28th March 2017) I dreamt about RAPTURE between the hours of 5AM and 6AM. It was so real. Standing in an open field with some friends waiting for one of us. At a point, we started calling on phone to know the challenge with our friend and the reason for her absenteeism. The feedback we got made us know that our friend is nowhere to be found because rapture has taken place. Peace left the earth. Doom filled the atmosphere.

Depression: The Relative of Suicide

News about town is of a doctor in Lagos who drove to 3rd mainland bridge and jumped in , committing suicide. One of the closest relatives of suicide is DEPRESSION.

Is Salary a bribe?

"Salary is the bribe you take to forget your dreams in Life" Someone shared the quote above as a wakeup call and a question came from a respondent ,'So what is a bribe?'

This is a hasty generalisation because entrepreneurship cannot thrive without employees and salary is the major reward of a business. - the business must pay the owner and staff or it will die. Entrepreneurship is not for everybody. Entrepreneurs cannot survive or grow without  employees
