5 Reasons Why You Need A Mentor
Have you ever wondered how some of the top
entrepreneurs got to where they are today – making
tens of thousands of dollars a month and sometimes
even more? They're strong on the basic entrepreneurial skills such as negotiation and marketing.
There’s a reason for that, and it’s one that rarely gets mentioned by so-called business trainers.
All successful entrepreneurs have great mentors in relevant areas of their careers.
That’s right, having a mentor or coach can be the indispensable catalyst you need to break through the sales barrier and start achieving results,
fast. These are just a few ways a mentor can fast-track your marketing success:
#1. EXPERIENCE: A mentor has already experienced
numerous successes and
failures, so they can pass all their juicy knowledge on to you in far less time. They take you through the path they've travelled before and show you how to learn the ropes.
#2. MOTIVATION: Sometimes, it can be hard to stay motivated when you’re working alone. Having a mentor can help you stay on track and set realistic goals. Motivation is like taking your bath every day. Once you stop, you stink. A mentor helps you stay motivated all the time.
#3. SAVED TIME: When you’re just starting out,
making easy mistakes is all too common. A mentor
will notice these before they happen and save you countless weeks and months of time you
would have otherwise wasted. Time is your most valuable asset, don't waste it.
#4. CONNECTIONS: If you show commitment and dedication as a mentee, your mentor will subsequently introduce you to other high-flying and prosperous entrepreneurs and contacts with strong skills. That alone would save you time of painful years marketing and networking.
#5. GUIDANCE: With so many different ways to make money online and offline, it can be hard to decide on a profitable direction to follow in your business career.
A mentor can help you realize your skills and passions, and guide you down the best path for you.
Did you know you’re 500% more likely to make money easily if you have a mentor, than if you decide to go as a lone-ranger?
And when you look at it that way, why WOULDN’T
you have a mentor?

The Plan to End Evil
by Jeremy Lallier
Many people hate evil, decry it and want to see it eradicated. But no one has been able to truly do that—yet it will be done. There’s a plan that shows how!
The world is a mess. It has been for quite some time, and, despite mankind’s best efforts, it’s not getting any better. In fact, we’ve discovered the incredible and invented the impossible, and yet we’re still plagued with the fundamental problem of evil.
It’s everywhere. Across the globe, there are evil people doing evil things, whether that’s a third-world warlord sending children onto the battlefield with guns and explosives or a first-world CFO embezzling away the pensions of thousands of employees. Evil exists, and while we’ve found ways to suppress it, dilute it and discourage it, we’ve yet to find a way to truly end it.
What’s the solution? Is there even a solution? Or is evil just such a fundamental part of human nature that we’ll never be truly rid of it?
Thankfully, there is a solution—and not only that, but the plan to enact that solution is already in motion. Evil can be stopped, and it will be stopped—and what’s more, you can be part of the solution.
Interested? Then it’s time to discover the Feasts of the Lord.

Destination: Heaven? by Leon Leonard
by Leon Leonard
The Creator God proclaims, “The soul who sins shall die” (Ezekiel 18:4). The soul is not immortal because God clearly said it can die!
Furthermore, 1 Timothy 6:16 declares that only God inherently has immortality. We’re told that Adam became a soul; he didn’t have one (Genesis 2:7). To learn more, read “Did God Give Adam an Immortal Soul?”
Jesus Christ said this: “No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven” (John 3:13). I realize that this may be a startling statement. It may contradict a sincerely held belief that has been in your family for generations. But what is more precious? Sincerely held beliefs or the words of Jesus Christ?
Notice these statements in the book of Psalms (a book largely written by King David):
King Solomon, David’s son and the wisest man who ever lived (other than Jesus Christ), understood the state of the dead. In Ecclesiastes 9:10, Solomon wrote, “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.”
At the sound of the seventh trumpet, when Jesus Christ returns to earth, the saints will be resurrected and transformed into immortal spirit beings. They will be endowed with amazing and awesome intellect and powers far beyond even that of angels! Matthew 13:43 boldly declares, “Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.”
Revelation 5:10 tells us that the risen saints will be made kings (rulers) and priests (teachers) and they will reign on earth, not in heaven. Jesus Christ, assisted by the saints, will rule from Jerusalem (Isaiah 2:3-4).
The subject of life after death is a big topic, and this blog post just covered a small sampling of the many scriptures that give us a full picture of what happens after we die. To learn more about this important subject, download our free booklet The Last Enemy: What Really Happens After Death?
I was recently at a funeral where the preacher boldly declared the dead person was going home to heaven. But is heaven really our destination after death?
Based on a false premise
One of the most important questions we can ask in life is, What happens after death? The belief in the immortality of the soul is a concept found in almost all religions, cultures and societies. But it is not a biblical concept.The Creator God proclaims, “The soul who sins shall die” (Ezekiel 18:4). The soul is not immortal because God clearly said it can die!
Furthermore, 1 Timothy 6:16 declares that only God inherently has immortality. We’re told that Adam became a soul; he didn’t have one (Genesis 2:7). To learn more, read “Did God Give Adam an Immortal Soul?”
Human beings not in heaven
Are the souls of good people in heaven? For the answer, we should go to the words of the One who dwells in heaven.Jesus Christ said this: “No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven” (John 3:13). I realize that this may be a startling statement. It may contradict a sincerely held belief that has been in your family for generations. But what is more precious? Sincerely held beliefs or the words of Jesus Christ?
Jesus Christ said this: “No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.”King David was “a man after [God’s] own heart” (Acts 13:22). He was a faithful and loyal servant. Surely such a godly man would be in heaven! Yet the apostle Peter, in his sermon to the Jews on Pentecost, said: “Brothers, I may confidently and freely say to you regarding the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day” (Acts 2:29, Amplified Bible). A few verses later, Peter states what he had learned from his teacher, Jesus Christ: “For David did not ascend into the heavens” (verse 34).
Notice these statements in the book of Psalms (a book largely written by King David):
- Psalm 6:5: “For in death there is no remembrance of You; in the grave who will give You thanks?”
- Psalm 146:4: “His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; in that very day his plans perish.”
King Solomon, David’s son and the wisest man who ever lived (other than Jesus Christ), understood the state of the dead. In Ecclesiastes 9:10, Solomon wrote, “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.”
Arise to what?
Though the Bible doesn’t talk about people going to heaven at death, it does talk a lot about rising from the dead later. The apostle Paul explains when the righteous will rise: “Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Corinthians 15:51-52).At the sound of the seventh trumpet, when Jesus Christ returns to earth, the saints will be resurrected and transformed into immortal spirit beings. They will be endowed with amazing and awesome intellect and powers far beyond even that of angels! Matthew 13:43 boldly declares, “Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.”
Revelation 5:10 tells us that the risen saints will be made kings (rulers) and priests (teachers) and they will reign on earth, not in heaven. Jesus Christ, assisted by the saints, will rule from Jerusalem (Isaiah 2:3-4).

Militancy won’t stop us from developing Niger Delta – Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday said the renewed violence in the Niger Delta would not stop his administration from engaging with interest groups from the region in finding solutions to the challenges facing the area.
Buhari spoke during the breaking of Ramadan fast with members of the diplomatic corps at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“No amount of militancy shall distract us from engaging with the region,” the President told his guests.
While regretting the renewed militancy, Buharj assured his guests that his administration was doing everything possible to address their concerns.
He identified some of the critical areas receiving his government’s attention to include the issue of unemployment, poor infrastructure and ecological problems.
Buhari again called on the international community to assist his government repatriate looted funds stashed in their countries.
This, he added, would also assist his administration to successfully prosecute the looters.
The President also said that the Federal Government was not relenting in its efforts to ensure the release of the over 200 schoolgirls abducted in their school in Chibok, Borno States in 2014.
He said, “I assure you that we will remain firm in our determination to completely eliminate the terrorist group and shall continue to count on the support of the international community as clearly demonstrated during the recently held Regional Security Summit.
“We are not letting off our efforts to secure the release of the remaining Chibok schoolgirls.
“We are living daily with the pains of the forcible abduction of these schoolgirls.
The Dean of the Diplomatic Corps who is also the High Commissioner of Cameroon to Nigeria, Salaheddine Abbas Ibrahima, thanked the President for hosting the diplomatic corps, the second time in the year.
He pledged his support and that of his colleagues to Nigeria.
He said, “We wish for eternal peace for Nigeria and may your efforts in the shortest time bring prosperity to our people.
“Be reassured that the international community will continue to provide the necessary support.”
Nigerians top list of foreign graduates at Jomo Kenyatta University
Nineteen Nigerians have graduated
with PhDs from the Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology
(JKUAT).
They
were part of 75 doctorate students who graduated during the institution’s 27th
graduation ceremony yesterday. A total of 4,086 students graduated with
diplomas and degrees in different disciplines offered by the institution. Apart
from the Nigerian students, 14 other foreign students earned their doctorates
at the university. This year’s graduation ceremony recorded two firsts for
JKUAT since inception. One, it had the largest number of PhD students. Two, it
had the most number of foreign students – especially Nigerians. CENTRE OF
EXCELLENCE Catherine Uloko, the vice rector at Kaduna Polytechnic, was one of
them. Her doctorate, like that of many of her fellow countrymen who graduated,
is in entrepreneurship. Dr Uloko said she came to study in Kenya after being
referred by the University of Illinois when a partnership was formed to build the
capacity of institutional leadership, especially on entrepreneurship. “The
polytechnic management in conjunction with the Federal Government decided to
introduce entrepreneurship and decided to go to Illinois but we were told that
JKUAT could offer what we were looking for without us necessarily going to the
US,” she said. She added that one of their reasons for coming to Kenya was the
testimony by University of Illinois that JKUAT is a centre of excellence. Ten
other Nigerians are still studying for their doctorates at the institution.
“Our prayer is that when we talk to the vice chancellor, we shall be allowed to
start these programmes back home in Nigeria,” Uloko said. But it was not only
the Nigerians who stole the show, local politicians and leaders also sought to
get more powers to read. Gichugu MP Njogu Barua, Tharaka Nithi Deputy Governor
Eliud Muriithi and Chai Trading Company Limited Managing Director Charles Mbui
graduated with doctorate degrees.
