      DEDICATION

      To my parents, late Mr. Julius Agbapuruonwu and late Mrs. Catherine Abiahuaku Onwugigbo who lived and left behind a wonderful Christian legacy.

      ACKNOWLEDGMENT

      In humble adoration to God who equipped me with knowledge, strength, and diligently guided and directed me during the making of this volume of book Blessed be His Holy Name.

      God’s gift of Godly children is really a blessing. My four children were of immense help as this work was being put together. For technical issues, I called on my first son, Charles Emeka Nnolim. For accessing needed Bible quotations, my first daughter, Pastor Chinyere Olujide and her younger brother, Mr. Chukwunonye Amaeze Nnolim served as my Encyclopedia "Biblenica". My youngest daughter, Chibuagbor Azuka Nnolim also encouraged me to finish the book so that she will read what God lead me to present to His people. I am grateful to all of you.

      I need to appreciate my three Grandsons,-Joshua, Joel, and Isaiah Olujide who amazed me by their knowledge of what a good published book should look like. They said to me, "Grandma, we will like your book to have a hard cover, and with your picture on it." I thank God for giving them such Wisdom.

      Apart from my children and grandchildren, there were some other people that gave me some positive push here and there through their prayer, suggestions, curiosity, and goodwill. They include the following:

      Pastor Henry Mbakwe; Mrs. Clara Oli; Mrs. Edith Osamor; Mrs. Juliana Taribo; Mrs. Adepeju Johnson; Mrs. Bunmi Orekunrin; Mrs. Magaret Ola; Mr. Jim Rice; Mrs. Betty Hyman; Mrs. Hannah Akwe; Mrs. Bose Ogunibe; Mr. Charles Roper; Mr. Oliver T. Asaah also, the Members of Daughters of Promise (my prayer line group). I appreciate all of you. Equally, I appreciate my publisher for accepting to produce the book without delays.

      Finally, I am totally indebted to my husband, Professor Charles Ekwusiaga Nnolim whose authority in language is infectious.

      PREFACE

      This work is with special regard and respect to women in general and with emphases on Christian women not as an indictment on Christian Women, rather, as a Revelation and Divine Message. I was CONSCRIPTED over ten years ago to bring this work to light. Nevertheless, I doubted if I was really hearing from God and I played a New Testament Jonah by suppressing the urge. I tried rebuking, binding, and casting out the idea but to no avail. Finally, after questioning the Spirit at work, I came to realize that it was divinely prompted. By the time I started drafting the outline for the work, peace returned to my heart and it seemed as if I was taking dictations from an unseen being, as I wrote.

      The experience gave me insight as regards how the Bible was written-by inspirational guidance. Then, I drew strength from three different passages of the Scriptures to work on the book. Namely:

      1. "If anyone declares publicly that he belongs to me I will do the same for him before my Father in heaven. But if anyone rejects me publicly, I will reject him before my Father in heaven" [Matt.10:32-33; Luke 12:8-9].

      2. "We must obey God, not men" [Acts 5:29].

      3. "If I perish, I perish" [Esther 4:16].

      CHAPTER ONE

      Introduction:

      1A. Account of Creation:

      As one reads through a brief review of the Biblical account of the creation of the universe, the Divine control of the flow of the orderliness that dominated the entire flow of God’s actions during such creation will be rarely missed. God did not create things at random; He maintained orderliness in the approaches and steps He took; as well Bible passages reveal orderliness, hard-work and creativity. He prepared and set the stages appropriate for different living things before He brought them forth.

      First, He brought forth and separated the day and the night [Gen.1:3-5]. Secondly, He made provisions for rain when He separated the vapor above from the waters below by calling forth the firmament [Gen.1:6-8].

      As part of the orderliness in creation of the universe, God knew ahead of time that the animals would suffer from starvation if the environment was void of their food; He did not create any living beings including man until he had made adequate provisions for their feeding. Therefore, the third day assignment focused on the issue of land spaces, that is their sources of food, sources of water and the vegetation [Gen.1:9-13].

      The fourth day, generously, the Lord God added the seasons of the year, intended for servicing the land spaces-the earth, the sea, the vegetation and the living creatures. This was achieved through the regulatory patterns of the universe, controlled by the sun, the moon and the stars. [Gen.1:14-19].

      By the fifth day, He commanded into existence the fishes of the sea and the birds of the air. Likewise, other living creatures were commanded to be-the beasts of the earth and everything that creepeth upon the earth [Gen.1:20-25]. God had set the stage for the living things.

      1B. Creation of Man:

      The last portion of God’s creative processes seemed to have taken a different dimension. Man was the last being God created on the
