I am a Sinner Saved by Grace in Christ Jesus…Born and raised
in Entebbe Uganda.
Raised in a Catholic Family but never knew The Lord Jesus Christ
though I attended ‘Mass’ almost every Sunday.
I heard about Jesus Christ, The Son of God, The Cross, Sins,
Salvation, Hell, and Wrath of God, Forgives of Sins, The Blood of
Jesus and Grace of God, first through a Baptist Missionary from the
USA who came to train our local ‘High School’ Basket Ball Team in
Entebbe, Uganda… He gave us Bibles and warned us about HIV/AIDS…and
the need for abstinence (back then ‘abstinence’ was not a
politically loaded term).
I was both ‘intrigued’ and disturbed by his message but never
surrendered my Life to Jesus Christ… However, after some days, The
Lord dealt with the stubbornness of my heart and I received Jesus
Christ as Personal Savior at a ‘Healing Evangelistic Meeting’ in
Entebbe conducted by an African Preacher.
I began preaching there and then at age 16, telling others about
Jesus Christ and what I had learnt about Salvation in Christ Jesus.
I joined a local ‘Pentecostal’ Church in Entebbe and joined the
evangelistic team and we traveled and preached from Village to
Village in Uganda, telling others about Jesus Christ.
After some time I worked as a Youth Pastor and Worship Team Leader
and for 10 years, was involved in Youth Outreach Evangelistic
Missions, in which we reached out to different Towns, Villages,
‘High Schools’, and Colleges with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in
Uganda, Kenya, and Rwanda.
After some time I moved to the USA and joined a State University and
studied Computer Science. During my studies at the State University,
I was involved in working with a number of Church Mission Teams from
the USA to Uganda and did take a number of Mission trips to Uganda
on Evangelistic Outreaches.
After I graduated from the State University, I returned to Uganda
and ‘volunteered’ by offering I.T/Computer Training to locals, which
I did for two years in Kampala, Uganda.
At the same time I have been involved in the ‘Apologetics’ and
‘Discernment’ ministry in Uganda, calling on the Evangelical Church
and Church leaders in particular to return to Teaching Sound Bible
Doctrine. On my return to Uganda, I was amazed at the ‘Falling Away’
(Apostasy) from Sound Bible Doctrine by the Evangelical Church in
Uganda…many Evangelicals in Uganda have been giving heed to mainly
the Prosperity Gospel from the West and also some form of Political
Christianity…
However, the good news is that there is also an increasing number
Christians in Uganda and Africa who are ‘waking up’ and holding firm
to the Teachings and Sayings of our Lord Jesus Christ, and rightly
discerning the False from the True basing on God’s Holy Word.
Currently, I work for a US Based Multi-National Computer
Corporation. I am Married to a blessed wife and blessed with kids
too...
I do not hold a PhD in ‘Christian Apologetics’, though I attended a
Local Bible College in the USA… I do not claim to have "special
deeper" knowledge in the Bible for Discernment or Bible Prophecy for
that matter. What I do is simple, ‘I read my Bible Everyday’ and ask
the Holy Spirit to reveal His Truth to me in His Word. I do
crosscheck all that I hear to see if it is in line with God’s Holy
Word and base any Discernment on God’s Holy Word, especially in the
New Testament.
I believe God's Truth in His Word is fair and simple for ALL to
understand and come to the knowledge of His Son Jesus Christ and His
Saving Grace. Any so-called Truth that is made too complicated by
Man always leads to Man and the seeking of more knowledge from Man
and worship of Man rather than God. When Jesus Christ speaks about
"loving your neighbor as yourself", He means exactly that and it
does not take a "Rocket Scientist" to figure that out...
I am not a protagonist nor do I seek the limelight as the kind of
ministry I am involved in makes one very unpopular, especially among
Christian Circles embroiled in the latest pop culture craze at the
expense of Sound Doctrine. I do not hail from nobility, I rather
grew up in abject poverty (There is a saying in Africa that when a
poor man calls you poor, then indeed you are really poor) and my
parents sacrificed all they had so I could go to school.
I am not an angel, nor do I claim to be a perfect person or even
count myself as perfected, I have made mistakes like any one on this
spiritual journey to the New Jerusalem Above… However, I have learnt
to Fix my Eyes on Jesus Christ the Author and Perfector of my
Faith…knowing that He who begun a good work in us will accomplish
that work. One thing I do, I forget all that is behind me, both the
successes and failures, and lay hold on the Prize, which is Christ
Jesus…
Philippians 3:7-14
(7) But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for
Christ.
(8) Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the
excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I
have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but
dung, that I may win Christ,
(9) And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness,
which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of
Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
(10) That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and
the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto
his death;
(11) If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the
dead.
(12) Not as though I had already attained, either were already
perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for
which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
(13) Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this
one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and
reaching forth unto those things which are before,
(14) I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling
of God in Christ Jesus.
I don’t have any “followers” nor do I seek to create "followers", I
simply encourage everyone to follow Jesus Christ and keep His
Teachings and Fix their eyes on Him alone and not Man. God Bless You
all and someday we shall all meet and rejoice before Jesus Christ
but before then, we have some work to do on earth – serving Jesus
Christ…
