This discussion this morning reminded me of my Substack article I hadn’t finished. It is all done now and you can read (or listen) via the link below:

Christians, why are we so focused on shouting “sin” and labeling everything as sin?
The undue focus on sin is why guilt and shame is so deeply entrenched in the Christian psyche.
The average Christian is so focused on hiding the fact that they still do wrong that they miss out on the fruits of righteousness a life focused on Christ would bring.
It is a self-centred way to live! Thinking the sin problem is yours to solve or to perform or even hide away.
I’ll say this categorically:
Sin is no longer God’s problem!
He has solved it PERMANENTLY in Christ.
If you’re in Christ, your problem is not sin.
What you need is to grow in the knowledge of the One you have received.
Focus on Him. Acknowledge every good thing He has given you. Know your inheritance in Him and live in the fullness of it.
This inordinate focus on performative holiness is YOU still thinking sin is a problem.
It keeps you from focusing on Christ and this gift of righteousness He died to give you.

Sin is not our message. Pointing it out, counting it; that is NOT our message.
Our message is that of Reconciliation!
That in Christ, man is reconciled to God.
Accepting Christ reconciles you to God in reality.
“David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works: “Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord will never count against them.””
Romans 4:6-8 NIV

“All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:
that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.”

A proper idiot you are. 😒. She is about 65 years old. She looks great for her age.
I don’t condone cheating, but the Jensen Huang situation is a reminder that women need to looksmax too. His wife literally looks like could be his grandma
Men are expected to make money, stay jacked, and look good forever.
Women can’t just stop trying once they get the ring or you will force the man to upgrade!

If you're free, a woman, own a dog, like pork and beer, or follow any other religion, Islam hates you.
As someone who got forced to be Muslim for so many years and knows all about it, I'm telling you: you made a huge mistake choosing a Muslim senator.

Understanding the cultural setting of the times of the Bible will help you understand the terminologies, parables, discourses of that time.
For instance, if I write @KeshetaRichard and I are planning to paint the town red, it is obvious we are talking about enjoying ourselves in a boisterous way.
1000 years from now, what are the chances that interpreters will think it was a literal “carry a paint bucket and go paint every house in town color red”?
See how period, circumstance and context becomes important to interpretation?
To understand Christ’s words, you’ll need to understand which ones were to the Jews, the unsaved and the general public and a future that is to come.

Ephesians 1 talked about Christ and what He has done.
Ephesians 2 talked about you in Christ and what it means for you.
Ephesians 3 talked about knowing what Christ did and you can walk into the fullness of God for your life.
This is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
There’s an insidious version of Christianity practiced by some that is joyless, soulless and full of rules and regulations.
The Holy Spirit has no place in it. Remember sha that the letter kills, it is the Spirit that gives life.
Rules and rules upon rules would only lead you down the Pharisaical route.

That sperm donor should also pay for the wedding. Her mum and stepfather should leave the adult alone to run her life. This is not hard at all. While at it, she should move out now to go live with the sperm donor. Sentiments not really needed.

They said African languages were too fragmented, too complex and too commercially insignificant to build advanced AI for.
We disagreed. So we built it.
64 languages. 166 voices. 3 billion parameters. ONE model.
Today, we are unveiling STORM-Ensemble 3.0, the most capable multilingual speech synthesis model we have built at PlotWeaver.
From Yorùbá, Igbo, Hausa and Nigerian Pidgin to Swahili, Amharic, Wolof, Zulu, Xhosa and dozens more, STORM-Ensemble 3.0 generates speech across 64 languages, with 166 distinct speaker voices.
Every voice you hear is generated by our model, not a prerecorded sample.
But the real breakthrough isn't the numbers.
It's what becomes possible when this technology is in the hands of people who can build with it.
-African filmmakers distributing stories across languages.
-Banks and telcos serving customers in their mother tongues.
-Education platforms reaching more children.
-Developers building voice AI products without starting from scratch.
We are not building AI for African languages simply to prove it can be done. We are building the infrastructure to make our languages commercially viable at global scale.
Next week, I will be speaking at the Commonwealth Business Forum in Antigua about unlocking the Commonwealth's creative potential. This launch is a practical demonstration of that ambition.
Africa must not simply consume the future of AI. We must build, own and shape the infrastructure that powers it.
Watch the video. Listen to the voices. Imagine what's possible.
Introducing STORM-Ensemble 3.0.
PlotWeaver. Build Once. Speak Every Language.
