By now the whole world has heard of the abductions of girls
from a secondary school in Chibok, a town in Borno state in Nigeria. This is
not the only time Boko Haram has attacked a school.
They had slaughtered 59 male students in Buni Yadi in February and had attacked schools in Mamudo and Gujba towns killing more than a hundred teenagers. Like their name suggests, western education is sinful. But why?

You see, these terrorists realise that the moment these kids
become educated, they would be difficult to brain wash.
In just the same way the enemy of your soul wants you
ignorant of what God’s purpose is for your life. He wants you to believe the
lies he feeds you via the media, the society, even through some false prophets
masquerading as the clergy.As long as he can keep you ignorant of God's will, he can control you.
The only way out of the destruction of your soul is
knowledge! Endeavour to know the truth and to seek knowledge relentlessly. In
this world of today where deception is on high levels, you cannot afford to
remain blind. Your destiny and your very life depend on knowing the truth. No
one can do it for you, you will have to do it yourself. You might want to read
up more on this here.
Remember friends, you and only you will give account of your
life. Your mother will not, neither will your dad or pastor/imam or friends. You
alone will. Therefore pursue knowledge so that you can be all God intends you to be. An ignorant Christian is easily destroyed by the devil who
roams around looking for whom it may devour - 1 Peter 5:8. Arm yourself with knowledge, then you will be able to
resist the devil and he will flee - James 4:7.
How to find knowledge? The Bible has everything you need. Ask God for wisdom and
revelation and HE will help you. It is His will to help you, You are His
precious child, it is not His desire that you walk in darkness and
ignorance and become easily deceived.
Also read other books by other men of God and listen
to/watch recordings of sermons. Youtube has loads as well as other websites. I know that you may be sceptical given
that some preach heresy, but you can tell if the message is right or not. Again
by cross-checking with what the Bible teaches about Jesus Christ. Are they teaching
about self-aggrandizement or about love? Christianity is very simple, it is essentially a message of LOVE, anything other than that must be scrutinized thoroughly using the Bible.
Above all pray for God to give you discernment, the ability to judge whether what you are hearing is profitable or not. It always takes time and effort to mine precious gems. And because wisdom/understanding has been compared to rubies, expect it to some time for you to acquire it. Nonetheless our loving father will guide you as you make efforts to know more about Him.

Once again remember ignorance destroys. Get
knowledge!
