SECRETE OF FAITH IS KNOWLEDGE 2

Matthew 13:9-16  Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear."

CONCLUSION

Romans 10:17

"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

Many believed not the gospel because no understanding was given to them by the Holy Spirit.

Allen Intersection Lagos.

Allen Junction
Changing Traffic Circle (Roundabout) to 4-way intersection is not technically the best way to go at Allen junction in Lagos mainland.
4 way intersection has 32 traffic point which Lagos State Government is trying to control with traffic lights. The disadvantages are: To be effective a lot of traffic survey must be conducted to determine travel time that shall be used to calibrate the traffic lights. Also failure as a result of lack of maintenance and vandalism present major challenge. From Nigeria experience, complex traffic lights provide basis for extortion of motorist by corrupt officials and police personnel.
A better approach should be traffic separation which is partly implement at the site and carriage way staggering which if combined with traffic lights would have reduced the traffic conflict to probably 8 from 32.
