CONTINUITY...

BODY FLUIDS CONTINUE INTO ONE ANOTHER…FROM SPIRIT TO SOUL, TO THE BODY.
In the human body; our extra-cellular values are important extracellularly but designed only for the extracellular compartments; and for optimum function it shouldn’t be obtained intracellularly. In the event of ECF values being obtained intracellularly; serious damage could occur. In light of these, we would compare the extracellular components of body fluids; in this case representing the body of the typical believer with the intracellular values that represent believers’ spirits; the transcellular fluid being fluid in which believers souls float.

·         BODY & BLOOD IS IN ECF
·         TRANSCELLULAR/INTERSTITIAL FLUID EMBEDS THE SOUL
·         SPIRIT IS EMBEDDED IN THE ICF


SOUL (transcellular fluid- corresponds to ECF)
Even at new birth, the soul and body are not born again: Thus, the unregenerate soul, along with its bodily correspondent has the following ions (characteristics) in great amounts:
·         Na+ : highest amount of cations; which is characteristically represented by Pride
·         Cl- : highest amount of anions; represented characteristically by the Law- which is responsible for fueling & maintaining sin.
·         Ca2+: which is represented b  y inordinate ambition
·         HCO3-: represented by self-consciousness
Solutions to these problems are catered for in the scriptures:
·         Make a decisive dedication of your body to GOD as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to him, which is your reasonable service –Romans 12:1
·         Be not conformed to the standards of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind Romans 12:2
SPIRIT (corresponds to ICF)
The communion of the Holy Spirit with a newly-recreated Spirit makes that Spirit possess several qualities, as exemplified by some specific ions, namely:
·         K+: greatest amount of spiritual cations; its represented characteristically by selflessness/ love
·         P04 3-: highest amount of spiritual negatively (like charges repel, unlike charges attract) charged ions; its represented characteristically by people of maximum positive influence
·         Mg2+: For energy metabolism. It is represented by Godly and wonder-working power, infused by the Holy Spirit into the life of every believer in Christ/ every Christian for the digestion, absorption of God’s word and consequent cell growth and development
Indeed: “Living the Christian life is not about following a series of laborious religious rituals to make u a better person- it’s about joyfully pursuing JESUS by the power of the Holy Spirit.” We cannot live the life that Christ called us to live without one of the most essential things that comes along with the new birth- which also is the best gift of all: THE HOLY SPIRIT; which is for OUR EMPOWERMENT & REGENERATION.

WANNABE INTERN

Week 2 Message to the Pre-Intern: don’t lose hope! Week 2, for me, was 2 months post-induction. This was when the wait began to sink in. You mean I’ve been home for two whole months? By now, I was literally chewing on my fingernails. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t scared of getting a space, but I certainly wasn’t confident about any place anymore. That is when I began to write this book. Today is the 12th of September and I sit at the dining table in my parents’ house, typing at 11:27pm (because well, I have an editing job to finish up, but mostly because I don’t have to go anywhere tomorrow morning). If I don’t want to, I don’t even have to take a bath tomorrow morning because well, I can stay indoors all day! (I most likely will stay indoors, except for those few minutes when I step out to buy hot akara for my akamu). I am spent. You know, I have applied to a couple of places now. Let me start with the first: LS Health Service Commission At the State Health servic

RESOURCEFULNESS

We all have about 6 needs, which we have to uncover, not necessarily create: ·          CERTAINTY ·          UNCERTAINTY ·          SIGNIFICANCE ·          CONNECTION & LOVE ·          GROWTH ·          CONTRIBUTION, WHICH IS BEYOND OURSELVES The first 4 needs don’t necessarily bring about fulfillment but the last two do. You can have all the comfort/certainty in the world and still remain unfulfilled. You could even switch over to variety i.e. uncertainty-yes, you’ld get adrenaline pumping through your veins, but it’ld be temporary. Significance? We all try to find significance, be it through achievements or by gaining recognition as one thing or the other. Connection is a beautiful thing and love is very accepting, irrespective of shortcomings. However, neither significance nor connection nor human love, make us feel fulfilled. Why else would 2 people who can’t seem to do without each other still feel that somehow, there’s still a missing element to life, even

Lateral Thinking with FEMI OLADELE

Blessed trinity; how many times and in how many ways? How convenient it is for me to try to estimate the virtues that the presence of GOD exudes; in ignorance obviously. Can you imagine the power of HIS might? And HE took me through a journey of understanding and I failed HIS test, because my human ability is frail and fails. Only a supernatural understanding of GOD as the three-in-one GOD appearing as: Our help in ages past; Our hope for years to come; and Our very present help in time of need. If you therefore need help, fetch from the fullness thereof; it is inexhaustible yet with a price. Many misconstrue the gifts of GOD as free; I presume, it is cheap and affordable but not free. The difference between HIM and his arch rival is that the latter charges high interests like Deposit Money Banks (DMBs) in Nigeria. GOD pays premium however; if you have to choose; choose LIFE and BLESSING. It is not without challenges that this life we live, that I live, actually.
