ANOXIC JESUS


The most uninterested person in science knows, that we all need oxygen- or air, containing oxygen; to  survive; an absence of which results in deterioration of bodily functions, brain death and cardiac death.

Point is, no oxygen equals no life.

And that, is the exact implication of anoxia.

Enough about oxygen.

Switching over to Jesus. We might have to put on our calculatory boots for this little exercise.

Jesus was dead for 3 days. 3 days, of absolute lack of oxygen, 3 days, of anoxia and tissue/organ death.

His brain cells, should no longer be viable.

But, as we know, he resurrected from anoxia to full perfusion of body organs, from a GCS of zero, to one of 15.

Absolutely impossible, if considered logically; but makes sense if considered supernaturally.

Daily, during my study of the Bible, I receive fresh insight on the healings performed by Jesus.

Case study: the woman, with menorrrhagia (issue of blood).
Mark, records that she had suffered in the hands of doctors.

SUFFERED.

In the hands of scholars of their time, excellent physicians and surgeons.

Perhaps, those of that caliber, in our day, might have provided the solution, but again, that would be a solution 2,017 years late- which is simply preposterous!

Just a touch from Jesus, and as power left him, all the books were rendered useless, knowledge rendered  helpless in that moment.

Man, that hurts!

So, today; is all about celebrating the Christ. The one who defied all hurts and literally went to hell and back for us, and more eye-widening is his return to full cerebral (as well as other organs) perfusion, with no damage to any end organs- without a transplant.

Let us reflect today, on the supernaturality of the gospel, and remember what made us believe.

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...

#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...

CHRONICLES OF A NIGERIAN PHYSIOTHERAPIST by 'Bola Abioye

EPISODE FIVE ‘Mum, who called you this time again?’ I finally asked. ‘Oh… Charles, that’s what matters to you now right. What matters to you is if it’s Prophet Jabesh or Prophet Judas that called me?’ Then I burst into laughter. I can’t help but wonder why these prophets must bear names as Judas, Jabesh…if you know, you know. Then she changed it for me straight up. ‘Charles, why exactly are you laughing? You know I get scared anytime you get close to that girl and you know that I am at the risk of having stroke with the way my blood pressure rises in little situations.’ There she goes again. My mum gets little information on health precautions and that’s the end. We hear nothing else save what she has learnt in the house for about at least a month. She subscribes to all sorts of health tips on her network and then tries to confirm her newly found information from me. She has several facts on why eating eba, using an onion bulb that has been cut once and use...
