INTRODUCTION TO THE SECRETS OF THEIR GREATNESS


The earth has produced a good number of great personalities in both sexes that are now God's road maps for us to follow, if we ever desire to be great in any calling or ministry, be it religion, business, politics, corporate career, education, etc. And of course, we are not matching the brake in our pursue of great men and women through whatever available means - social media, conferences, seminars, workshops, formal and informal gathering, one-on-one meeting and mentoring. However, the expected results are truly not manifesting.

So the question is: Why are we not getting the expected results? The problem is that we are more interested in success stories of these personalities and we focus on them than the stories of their failings and risings, trials and fighting, sacrifices and pains, etc. And whenever we listen to such aspects of their stories,
we quickly associate their victories to something like their backgrounds, experiences, mental capacities, etc. forgetting that such things have no victories in themselves.
And the gospel truth is that whenever we gather together and sit down to hear these people speak, we don't expect them as much as we aren't allowed to categorise on their backgrounds, such as phenomenon that surrounded their conceptions, the nature of their births, family heritage, connection and relationship, their natural human capacity, institutions of study, their environments, etc. as the reasons for their greatness.
If we or they categorise on these, their stories and life histories will lack value for they (stories and histories) won't impact anything positive and practicable to us, their listeners, who do not have their kinds of backgrounds and could never experience what they experience as they experienced it. The truth is such things are not count.
The reason those things are not count as a means for greatness is because the earth has produced two groups of people with direct opposite backgrounds who became the same thing in terms of greatness; and we have also seen people with exceptional backgrounds who never became anything great in any sense. Therefore, those backgrounds are nothing more than 'Physical Signs' of greatness which can either be Direct or Indirect; or Positive and Negative, and they are never the reasons for achieving the greatness.

So these series posts contain verses from holy books and extracts from books with our comments that primarily explained what Jesus Christ and other great personalities in history did and how He and they did it to become great in heaven, on earth and in earth. And we shall also include the secret deeds of success of other great personalities in any endeavour. God help us!

THE REAL MEANING OF SCHOOL

Issue of school in regards to its meaning is one of the modern topic amongst educationists. While school is described in a layman term just as a place of learning; it is professionally described as an organized environment for formal education – which means education that follows certain processes. And the features of school, as it is being often mentioned, include: school authority and staff, classrooms, laboratories and libraries, textbooks and lesson notes, students, tables and chairs, various buildings and offices, ink or chalk boards and other materials of instruction. But school, in the real sense, is more than all that have been mentioned as the major features; my description of school is simply a place of getting additional knowledge to one's own natural knowledge. Therefore, the real features of a school is everything and anything that contributes to the growth of one's knowledge, causes the expansion of one's mind, increases one's intelligence quotient, ...

HOW TO DETOXIFY THE YOUNG MINDS FROM INDOCTRINATION

By Wole Soyinka for thehighereducation.com A few years ago, I had reached the stage of despair over the deterioration of the university system in my own country, Nigeria, under successive regimes of both civilian and military orders. Even the basic, campus social life had broken down, a condition that I tried to summarise in the title of a public lecture that went: “Descent of barbarism and end of the collegial”. Educational standards had plummeted so low that the word “illiteracy” had become current within – not only outside – the ivory towers, leading Unesco to classify Nigeria as one of the nine countries that together accounted for 70 per cent of the globe’s illiterate population. We do not need to be reminded that primary and secondary education form the base material for the intellectual quality of intakes into the tertiary institution. When deterioration in those two tiers is compounded by the fact that those tertiaries indulged in any excuse to foment strikes by facul...

THE EVILS THAT HAPPEN TO THE GOOD SAMARITAN

As Christians in this present generation, we tend to question God why He allows evil in someone else situation and good in another, especially someone we might consider 'underserved'. Such judgement is not sentimental, I will say, rather a result of our inability to understand the indepth of God's sovereignty and His declared words. What kind of things that happens in today society to the good 'ones'; 'why him or her?' And 'why not him or her?' We could argue the issue passionately and with good different points of view that could cast down any other plausible argument concerning the situation. And as such, some people's minds, and ultimately their faith could shrink back from their sincere service and worship to God and to Christ Jesus, our saviour, because of the things that happen to the good Samaritan, who deserves care and love and, even to some extents to be worshipped. But the truth of the two kinds of situation - good and bad ...
