He is not a Christian, a Muslim, or of any other faith that we humans have created. We made religion; we make laws; and sometimes, we disguise our own rules as God’s law. But in truth, God’s origina...
Blessing Ojoma Onakpa: So when I say that some of our cultural laws are contrary to God’s design, I say it boldly—not to condemn, but to remind us of the divine intention. Let us honor God’s design, and not let human desires rewrite it.
