Satan dangled Uriah’s wife, Bathsheba, before David. She was like a ripe apple, so ripe that David could not resist! Yes, David saw a naked woman bathing, desired her, committed adultery with her and finally committed murder in order to have her for himself! No matter how much of a celebrated beauty Bathsheba was, David was not supposed to covet her. Didn’t he know the law? Didn’t he meditate on the law day and night? Didn’t he swear to keep the law in his heart? Didn’t he have his own wife? I believe that David’s encounter with this woman was not entirely coincidental or accidental. Bathsheba was a daughter of Eliam, one of David’s bodyguards. This lady was also a wife to one of David’s chief army officers. There is no way she could be such a total stranger who’s...

May God not let me be partial in giving out His Word because we serve a God who is not partial in His judgment.

The advantage is that this heightened awareness of the boundaries of respect that we should have for fellow humans, animals and nature has made us more compassionate and more aware of the need to protect the rights of the vulnerable amongst us. As an outcome of this heightened empathy, the development of organizations that seek to provide protection through education and advocacy for the rights of specific groups is on the rise. Nevertheless, we sometimes seem to forget that responsibilities are a fundamental part of rights. We cannot defend or protect rights without...

Q.

Hello Mr. Famuyide,

I have been subjected to a similar situation as described in the case for CSS that lasted 20 years before it was finally settled. My situation is a little bit different as I went out of the country on parole and upon my arrival; I found that I had been deported due to revoked CSS cases in Feb. 1998. Not only that, I was also barred for 5 years from entering the U.S. illegally. Now I live in Canada as a Canadian citizen and visited US many times as the bar has been lifted and the waiver has been granted. Do you think I have a chance of getting green card? Please provide your thoughts. I greatly appreciate your time.

A.
