THE DEGENERATE NERVE


Heb 6:4-6 (AMP)
For it is impossible [to restore and bring again to repentance] those who have been once for all enlightened, who have consciously tasted the heavenly gift and have become sharers of the Holy Spirit,  And have felt how good the Word of God is and the mighty powers of the age and world to come, If they then deviate from the faith and turn away from their allegiance — [it is impossible] to bring them back to repentance, for (because, while, as long as) they nail upon the cross the Son of God afresh [as far as they are concerned] and are holding [Him] up to contempt and shame and public disgrace.


Nerves are the essential intermediary connecting the brain to the effector cells. A nerve is composed only of axonal (distal) segments of different neurons carrying signals in the same direction, it is a bundle of fibers forming a network that transmits messages in the form of impulses between the brain or spinal cord and the body's organs. While motor nerves carry impulses outward to the muscles and glands, sensory nerves carry inbound information about the body's movements and sensations. Mixed nerves perform both functions.
Spinal cord injuries in humans and other mammals are never followed by regrowth. Although the CNS when isolated from a 9-day old animal(opossum pup) will regenerate in vitro, CNS from a 12-day old will not. This is because at this stage, glial cells have developed in the CNS. Glial cell growth could represent a stage of development in your spirit man. When they develop, its equivalent to the development of  Naturally Acquired Active Immunity to the devil’s antics.

Therefore, if a nerve is severely damaged, the signal between the cell body and the effector cells is interrupted and neurons are unable to convey effective requests to effector cells e.g. a muscular movement. However, there are conspicuous differences in the regenerative capacity of nerve cells and Christians as well; with respect to age. The older and more developed a nerve cell/Christian gets, the less his regenerative power.

A degenerated nerve can be likened to a spiritually dead person who was once a very strong believer. He witnessed everything about God and still didn’t went back to the world. Thus, they are making the death of Christ of no effect; grieving the Holy Spirit by not serving the original purpose for which they were delivered from sin and consequently death; crucifying Christ afresh!
‘For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for which sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessings from God: but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned.’ Heb 6:7-8

He that thinks he stands should take heed lest he fall…be careful so you do not fall!

#MONDAY’S PROSE THIS CHILD; ON THE ROAD

Through my myopic eyes, a fleeting image of a little boy is formed on my retina A little boy in a little suit, Treading the familiar bushy routes before him The boy had neither escort nor directives And surely, he needed none For a 4 yr old on the road possesses more maturity than a 10 year old in ‘comfort’ Swiftly, she navigated through cars held in traffic An adventurous smile tugging at her split lips Providing snacks for impatient car-owners And though panting from car-chasing, She had a visible life of passionate content She probably planned to get off the street, Forsake her hypothetical ‘street-urchin boyfriend’, Give up this demeaning way of living, But I feared she wouldn’t! She hadn’t been wired to get off the street And sadly, she was too content to stage a forced exit. Children on the road and teenagers of the road, Not choosing to be this vulnerable Yet hooded and shrouded in the cold, Filled with shreds of hope that the fut...

#POETRY# MOMENTS

So, it’s another Monday. Today’s poem is on moments, appreciating them and taking second looks at the seemingly mundane. Enjoy! MOMENTS You never know, you just never know There he was last night, holding your hands, Looking into your eyes with passion beyond expression, And then; here he was this morning, telling a sad tale of never! Who knew love could become so tasteless overnight? It had seemed over in less than a flash; So much for the deep love you shared. Where it all ends, you just never know! Memories of baby’s not so far away childhood, Flickered before her eyes like a dimly lit flame Was it not just last summer she had started crawling? And in what appeared to be less than 24hours, She had walked, jumped and taken sandwiches to school And now, she fit smugly into a graduation gown, cape and all, Her baby was now a grown woman And those memories were all she had left! He stroked her tapered fingers lovingly as he wept by her beds...
SALIENT LESSONS FROM THE CORONARY ARTERIES The coronary arteries provide blood supply to the heart, the blood pump. Some of its duties are outlined and deductions are saliently made from them. 1.       REPLENISHMENT: The first lesson to take from the coronary artery is that it replenishes the heart. While performing the work of pumping blood to other tissues, the cardiac muscle is replenished by means of its 2 coronary arteries. 2.       DIRECTLY SOURCED: The coronary arteries, unsurprisingly, take origin from the aorta, the main artery leaving the left ventricle, carrying oxygenated blood to all branch arteries of the human body. Thus, it originates from the principal source of maximally oxygenated blood; this points to the fact that it reveres impartation and not opinions. 3.       PERFUSION: The coronary arteries ensure that blood gets to every part of the heart by means of its several branches. Branc...
