Heavenly Fans
By Steve Popoola
I love football, the sport Americans call soccer. In Africa and in Nigeria particularly, this sport commands a very large followership and has the highest number of fans compared to other sports. I have noticed that one of the best times to drive in the city of Lagos is when a crucial match involving any of our national teams is going on. The roads would be free as people would be in their homes, offices, hotels or viewing centres watching the match.
(This is an extract of Steve Popoola’s teaching at Redeemed Christian Church, Friends parish, London on 27th September 2009)
Introduction: God made us in His image and His likeness – We are objects of God created with His attributes. We inherit from Him the divine nature. Gen 1:26 – 28
When we examine the things God can do, it helps us to understand how far we can go with God, unlimited in His ability to make us what He wants us to be.
What is creation and who can create?
Creation is different from production or invention. Creation means bringing into existence something which never existed before; Making something out of nothing. “Calling those things that were not as if they existed” (Heb 11:13, Rom 4:17)
