Month MARCH: Month of ensuring “PROFITABLE LIVING” in Christ Jesus stead! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“ALL SCRIPTURE is GIVEN by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT [WHOLE, COMPLETE, MATURE], throughly FURNISHED unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:16-17/Emphasis Mine. 

“All SCRIPTURE is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is PROFITABLE for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work” 2 Timothy 3:16-17/Amplified [AMP] 

“For WHATSOEVER things were WRITTEN AFORETIME were WRITTEN for our LEARNING, that we through patience and comfort of the SCRIPTURES might HAVE hope” Romans 15:4. 

“For WHATEVER was WRITTEN in earlier TIMES was WRITTEN for our INSTRUCTION, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the SCRIPTURES we might have HOPE and OVERFLOW with CONFIDENCE in His PROMISES” Romans 15:4/Amplified [AMP]. 

“For WHATEVER was thus WRITTEN in FORMER days was WRITTEN for our INSTRUCTION, that by [our steadfast and patient] endurance and the encouragement [drawn] from the SCRIPTURES we might HOLD FAST to and CHERISH hope” Romans 13:4/Amplified [Classic Edition] 

“For unto us was the GOSPEL PREACHED, as well as unto them: but the WORD PREACHED did not PROFIT them, not being MIXED WITH FAITH in them that heard it” Hebrews 4:2. 

“For indeed we have had the GOOD NEWS [of salvation] PREACHED to us, just as the Israelites also [when the GOOD NEWS of the promised land came to them]; but the message they heard did not BENEFIT them, because it was not UNITED with FAITH [in God] by those who heard” Hebrews 4:2/Amplified [AMP]. 

“For indeed we have had the GLAD TIDINGS [GOSPEL of God] PROCLAIMED to us just as truly as they [the Israelites of old did when the GOOD NEWS OF DELIVERANCE from bondage came to them]; but the MESSAGE they heard did not BENEFIT them, because it was not MIXED with FAITH (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they UNITED in FAITH with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe)” Hebrews 4:2/Amplified [CLASSIC EDITION] 

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED. 9 So then THEY which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9. 

“But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. 8. For bodily exercise PROFITETH little: but GODLINESS is PROFITABLE unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come . . . 13 Till I come, give ATTENDANCE to READING, to EXHORTATION, to DOCTRINE. 14. NEGLECT NOT THE GIFT that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 15. Meditate upon these things; GIVE thyself WHOLLY to them; that thy PROFITING may appear to all” 1 Timothy 4:7-8, 13-15. 

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us all things that pertain unto LIFE and GODLINESS, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are GIVEN unto us exceeding great and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having ESCAPED the CORRUPTION that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4. 

“If the iron be BLUNT, and he do not WHET the edge, then must he put to MORE STRENGTH: but WISDOM is PROFITABLE to direct” Ecclesiastes 10:10. 

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have SHEWED you, and have TAUGHT you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE TOWARD God, and FAITH TOWARD our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

THE GOSPEL TRUTH – ABOUT THE CHURCH 

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL TRUTH – ABOUT THE CHURCH: YOU ARE THE CHURCH – THAT GOD IS BUILDING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD! 

“Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life” Acts 5:20. 

“Churches are not clubs for the perfect. They are clinics for the sick, the wounded and the maimed, where those a bit stronger help those who are still weak. The forgiven forgive. The healed heal. The comforted comfort others. Those who have been picked up pick others up. God bless you” – Reinhard BONNKE, of Blessed Memory. 

The Church gathering otherwise called “The Church”, is the collective home extension of the individual nucleus home respectively. It’s like a fuel filling station and garage for the fuelling and refuelling, the centre for the repair and repairing of the car – and in such places you don’t run the car there after fuelling or repairing but the car’s comes there to get energies and synergy’s before going to take a run on the road of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. And God is building His Church that makes up that gathering in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“. . . 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven . . .” Matthew 16:13-20. 

For the Church is you – the individual, local and universal body of born-again Believers of God in Christ Jesus, filled by the Holy Spirit, living by the instructions of the unadulterated and authoritative WORD of God, and under a Pastoral Shepherd without prejudice. The Church is not a freelance person of freedom without a stand and guild rails, without order and decency, but under the guidance of spiritual leadership of the Holy Spirit. The Church is living and lively, loving and touchable, and it’s also reachable, and the life is liveable and more, as God in Christ Jesus, the head of the Church. The Church is otherwise called THE BODY OF CHRIST which you are a member there to function and not as a structure.  

“. . . 30 for we are MEMBERS of His BODY, of his flesh, and of his bones . . .” Ephesians 5:21-33. 

“. . . 27 Now ye ARE the BODY of Christ, and MEMBERS in particular . . .” 1 Corinthians 12:12-27. 

I pray you won’t be the loosed end Believer’s in Christ Jesus, who is without knowledge and understanding of who you ARE on spiritual settings for the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead; more so, so that you can share in the fullness of the available and given grace that Christ Jesus, the head of the Church, has set out and bestowed for your BLESSEDNESS in Him accordingly. For you ARE His Church that He’s building, and as such the Church is sanctified, cleansed, loved, glorious, holy, without spot, wrinkle, blemish, and a mystery. [Ephesians 5:21-33]. 

“. . . For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the HEAD OF THE CHURCH: and He is the SAVIOUR of THE BODY. 24 Therefore as THE CHURCH is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also LOVED the church, and gave himself for it; 26 that he might SANCTIFY and CLEANSE it with the washing of water by THE WORD, 27 that he might present it to himself a GLORIOUS church, not having SPOT, or WRINKLE, or any such thing; but that it should be HOLY and without BLEMISH . . . 32 This is a great MYSTERY: but I speak concerning Christ and the church . . .” Ephesians 5:23-32 

Blessed regards in Christ Jesus stead, as you take your place and stands in the grace in doing life and living godly. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Let ALL THINGS be done DECENTLY [APPROPRIATELY] and in ORDER” 1 Corinthians 14:40/Emphasis Mine. 

“Brethren, if a man be OVERTAKEN in a FAULT, ye which are SPIRITUAL, RESTORE such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one another’s burdens and so fulfil the law of Christ. 3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself . . . 9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season, we shall reap, if we faint not. 10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith” Galatians 6:1-10. 

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17. 

“But if any man seem to be CONTENTIOUS, we have no such CUSTOM [PRACTICE], neither the CHURCHES of God” 1 Corinthians 11:16/Emphasis Mine. 

“Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. 22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as THE CHURCH is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also LOVED THE CHURCH, and gave himself for it; 26 that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 that he might present it to himself a GLORIOUS CHURCH, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be HOLY and WITHOUT BLEMISH. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 for we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in PARTICULAR so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband” Ephesians 5:21-33. 

“For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 14 For the body is not one member, but many. 15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? 18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. 19 And if they were all one member, where were the body? 20 But now are they many members, yet but one body. 21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. 22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: 23 and those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. 24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: 25 that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. 26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. 27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular” 1 Corinthians 12:12-27.

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL

By Leave a Comment

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL: GIVES SALVATION UNTO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

The Gospel of Christ Jesus, it’s the POWER of God that brings about the SALVATION of all mankind for today and tomorrow. How relevant it is today than ever before, in the midst of the turbulence, confusion, distrust, breakdown, hunger, chaos, wars, pandemic and such like, that have raven our world today.

And SALVATION in this context is not necessarily only about just being born of God into His Kingdom; but it’s also about matters of life and not limited to the following: PEACE, SOUND MIND, HEALTH, PROSPERITY, HEALING, SECURITY, SAFETY, DELIVERANCE, RESTORATION, STRENGHT, LIVELIHOOD, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP and Such like the MORE.

So, the preaching of the GOSPEL is the preaching of THE WORD of God, which is the preaching of Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD, the GOOD NEWS of human redemption. The good news is that man’s debt and eternal judgement is everted because Christ Jesus has paid for it by the sacrifice He made to take on the human condemnation – which is the consequence of sin, so that man can be JUSTIFIED before God instead of facing the Judgement of condemnations; and thereafter man can then live in FREEDOM from sin and it’s effect, in an onward and upward trajectory toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be PREACHED in all the world for a WITNESS unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:14.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, AND UNTO THE UTTERMOST PART OF THE EARTH” Acts 1:8.

“Yea, so have I strived to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city” Acts 8:1-8.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to BE SIN FOR US, who KNEW NO SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

“There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” Romans 8:1-2.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“It was for this FREEDOM that Christ set us free [completely liberating us]; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery [which you once removed]” Galatians 5:1-2 Amplified.

“If the Son therefore shall make you FREE, ye shall be FREE indeed” John 8:36.

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE: PREACH CHRIST, PREACH THE WORD – THERE WOULD BE JOY IN THE CITY OF YOUR BEING!
 
“. . .4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them . . . 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that CITY . . .” Acts 8:1-20.
 
Don’t be Mistaken on the GOSPEL MESSAGE – It’s the POWER and ANSWER to all HUMAN INNERMOST QUEST for – yesterday, today and tomorrow.
 
“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For THEREIN is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.
 
We live today in the times of divergence of pendamic, trials, brutality, bitterness, greed, persecutions, evils, denials, wickedness, wars, sanctions, oppressions, hatred and poverty in our worlds, while there’s yet in the midst of all these happenings are God’s abundant provisions of DELIVERANCE, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE – for all hopeless, faithless and loveless challenges and circumstances.
 
The likelihood of the challenging times today is for most people to blame or curse or accuse or transfer aggressions to others. And some will take advantage of others by appealing to their emotions, sentiments and fears in other to have holds over them in their vulnerability.
 
And what people needs today in the midst of the situations, circumstances and challenges before them is the UNSPEAKABLE and INDESCRIBABLE JOY of the Lord in their hearts, family and communities; and much more the HOPE, FAITH and LOVE that can well out of their darkness as fountains with peace, worth, blessedness, graciousness, gracefulness and dignity. Hence a person of the HEAVENLY MANDATE, which is YOU, is of a great need and demand for today’s challenges and changing times. And your OBEDIENCE is PARAMOUNT to it all.
 
And a person of the HEAVENLY MANDATE indeed, will do only one thing: PREACH CHRIST, PREACH THE WORD in the midst of the irrelevancy of one’s and or people challenges and circumstances in order to trigger the needed JOY and PEACE that the individual, family, community and nations might need, in times of today’s challenges and changing times.
 
In the Apostolic days, all that was needed to bring OVERWHELMING JOY to the City of SAMARIA in the midst of persecution, evils, wickedness, falsehood, sorcery and divining, satanic cohorts preachers was to preach Christ, who is – The Living WORD. And the needed JOY came and took hold of the people while evil, hatred, falsehood and satanic cohorts and such likes, were silently KEPT AT BAY as God’s Kingdom and intent of overwhelming Joy advance to flood in the hearts of the Samaritan City.
 
I make bold to say that if you must keep your enemy at bay and keep the kingdom of God and intent advance in your life and those about you, PREACH CHRIST, PREACH THE WORD; Preach Not Sentiments, Not Denomination, Not Self egotism, and more importantly not Religion and not rudiments and traditions of this world. For that will create more conflicts than solving human needs and QUESTS.
I am been emboldened to make known to you that there will be a miracle of change in your life and godly living, because – THERE’S A MIRACULOUS POWER IN THE WORD, when CHRIST is PREACHED. The SALVATION that you, family and community you care about needs, is in The WORD, which is the GOSPEL OF CHRIST. Preach it! Live it!! And Joy Overwhelmingly will come!!! AMEN.
 
PREACH CHRIST – PREACH THE WORD – FOR THE GOSPEL MESSAGE – IS THE POWER, ANSWER AND ANTIDOTE TO THE QUEST, IN ALL HUMAN NEEDS.

“And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a GREAT PERSECUTION against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judæa and Samaria, except the apostles. 2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him. 3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison. 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that CITY. . . “ Acts 8:1-20.

“For God, who commanded the light to shine OUT OF DARKNESS, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us” 2 Corinthians 4:6-7.

THE GOSPEL MADE ME – AND MADE THE DIFFERENCE IN ME

THE GOSPEL MADE ME – AND MADE THE DIFFERENCE IN ME: I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL!
 
“For God, who commanded THE LIGHT TO SHINE OUT of darkness, hath SHINED IN OUR HEARTS, to give the light of the KNOWLEDGE of the glory of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ . . .13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; 14 knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you. 15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God” 2 Corinthians 4:6, 13-15.
 
“. . . 5 not that we are SUFFICIENT of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our SUFFICIENCY is of God; 6 who also hath MADE us ABLE ministers of the NEW TESTAMENT; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life” 2 Corinthians 3:1-6.
 
“The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. 6 THE LINES ARE FALLEN UNTO ME IN PLEASANT PLACES; YEA, I HAVE A GOODLY HERITAGE. 7 I will BLESS the Lord, who hath GIVEN me counsel: my REINS also instruct me in the night seasons. 8 I have SET the Lord always before me: because he is at my RIGHT HAND, I shall not be moved” Psalms 16:5-8.
 
“I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL, for it is the power of God for salvation [from His wrath and punishment] to everyone who believes [in Christ as Savior], to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 FOR IN THE GOSPEL THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IS REVEALED, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed in a way that awakens more faith]. As it is written and forever remains written, “The just and upright shall live by faith.” Romans 1:16-1/AMP.
 
“Yea, so have I STRIVED TO PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21.

THE TOTAL [COMPLETE, WHOLE] GOSPEL

By Leave a Comment

THE TOTAL [COMPLETE, WHOLE] GOSPEL: IT’S FOR THE TOTAL [COMPLETE, WHOLE] MAN – SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY!

“And the very God of peace SANCTIFY you WHOLLY; and I pray God your WHOLE SPIRIT and SOUL and BODY be PRESERVED blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5 :23.

Being whole and desiring a wholesome living and wholesome being is not magical or farfetched as some may think or imagine. Being sound in life and grace is not in a distance places far off from you – it’s within your grasped. It’s what the Gospel “IS” – and will “DO” as when PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED. And the TOTAL (Complete, whole) GOSPEL for TOTAL (Complete, Whole) MAN indicates but not limited:
Sin forgiveness, which entails – Spiritual Emancipation of the deadened and depraved human spirit;
Sound mind, which entails – Soul transformation by the WORD; and
Bodily Healing which entails – Divine Health Restoration.
 
DO YOU BELIEVE THIS GOSPEL STATEMENT AS SAID?
“The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus BEGAN both to DO and TEACH, 2 until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given COMMANDMENTS unto the apostles whom he had chosen” Acts 1:1-2.
 
Known for the truth that – MAN (a non-gender in you) is a triune (tripartite) being, indicating MAN is a spirit-being, has a SOUL (conscious of the – will, mind, reasoning (articulate), emotion) and lives in a BODY (clay, humus, sand, dust). The MAN in the HUMAN (HU-MAN), meaning the MAN in the BODY (humus – clay, sand, dust) is a spirit-being. Otherwise, the body (humus – clay, sand, dust) that rakes lots of money from us to maintain as so important we think, is nothing outside the MAN that dwells therein, hence at death, the BODY (humus – clay, sand, dust) is sent to the ground and left to decay and degrade into the ground where it was made and structured from in creation [Genesis 2:7; Genesis 3:17-19]; while on the other hand, the MAN, the spirit-being, return to the maker and creator God with the soul consciousness [Genesis 1:26-28; Genesis 2:7; Revelation 4:11; Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 8:4-6]; and knowing full well, that while man was made by God, He breathed life into the hu-man in order to become a living soul-being [Genesis 2:7; Job 32:8; Job 33:4].
 
“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the BREATH of life; and man became a LIVING soul” Genesis 2:7.
 
“But there is a spirit in man: and the INSPIRATION of the Almighty GIVETH them understanding” Job 32:8.
 
“The Spirit of God hath made me, and the BREATH of the Almighty hath GIVEN me life” Job 33:4.
 
And it is by the WORD, which is the person of Christ Jesus (Hebrews 4 :12-13; John 1:1-5; 1 John 5:7), who is the GOSPEL himself, being PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED, that the total (complete, whole) man can be liberated by the pure, true and wholesome GOSPEL.
 
“And he said unto them, GO ye into all the world, and PREACH THE GOSPEL to every creature . . . 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and PREACHED every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming THE WORD with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:15-20.
 
And by the blessed Holy Spirit that is given to us and that dwells in us [Romans 5:5; John 14:15-17], working in conjunction by the WORD, thus help to – energise and synergies – in ensuring that our mortal body is quickened – being kept alive daily, as we minister the Gospel to it accordingly.
 
“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead DWELL in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also QUICKEN your MORTAL BODIES by his Spirit that DWELLETH in you” Romans 8:11.
 
Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, though He’s the Gospel, equally PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED the Gospel according to the Scriptures [Matthew 9:35; Luke 8:1-3]. And in humanity, He also experienced the total (complete, whole) GOSPEL effect too in His earthly-being. [Luke 2:52; 1 Timothy 3:16]. This thus indicates that the GOSPEL is life and life-giving to all who will give attention to hear and receive it graciously and gracefully, when PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED accordingly.
 
“And Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM (MENTAL) and STATURE (PHYSIQUE), and in FAVOUR with God (SPIRITUAL) and man (SOCIAL)” Luke 2 :52 Emphasis Mine.
 
“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.
 
“How then shall they call on him in whom they have not BELIEVED? and how shall they BELIEVE in him of whom they have not HEARD? and how shall they HEAR without a PREACHER? 15 and how shall they PREACH, except they be sent? as it is written, How BEAUTIFUL are the feet of them that PREACH THE GOSPEL OF PEACE, and bring glad tidings of good things! 16 But they have not all OBEYED THE GOSPEL. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So then faith cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:14-17.
 
It’s my earnest prayer today and right now, that you experience the fullness of the total GOSPEL for your total well-being as have this opportunity now to read this GOSPEL message for your TOTAL (complete, whole) BEING and give your hearing ears to hear only the TOTAL GOSPEL that emancipates and results in your complete wholeness, and nothing else that’s contrary to your total wellbeing in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“And the very God of peace sanctify you WHOLLY; and I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be PRESERVED blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5 :23.
 
“For THE WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of SOUL and SPIRIT, and of the JOINTS and MARROW, and is a discerner of the THOUGHTS and INTENTS of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13.
 
Take time to ponder over the GOSPEL SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS below for your perusal and you can ascertain your wholeness experience as PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERD by our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ in humanity and others – and as presently possible by His WORD today. Amen.
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHT WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: 21 for she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be WHOLE. 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath MADE thee WHOLE. And the woman was made WHOLE from that hour” Matthew 9:20-22 (Matthew 14:34-36; Matthew 15:27-28).
 
“And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimæus, the son of Timæus, sat by the highway side begging . . . 51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight. 52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath MADE thee WHOLE. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way” Mark 10:46, 51-52 (46-52); Mark 6:53-56
“. . . 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 and fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath MADE thee WHOLE” Luke 17:15-19 (11-19); (Luke 8: 46-56).
 
“. . . 9 And immediately the man was MADE WHOLE, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath . . . 14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: SIN NO MORE, lest a worse thing come unto thee. 15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had MADE him WHOLE” John 5:9, 14-15 (1-15) (John 7:23).
 
“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto salvation to every one that BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.
 
“. . . 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24.

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and TEACH all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 TEACHING them to observe all things whatsoever I have COMMANDED you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” Matthew 28:18-20.
 
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also YE ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES; 4 and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES . . . 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye believed” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD FOR HUMAN EMANCIPATION

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD FOR HUMAN EMANCIPATION: IT’S OUR GLOBAL AND INESCAPABLE SUPREME TASK!
 
“For though I PREACH THE GOSPEL, I have NOTHING TO GLORY of: for NECESSITY is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I PREACH NOT THE GOSPEL! 17 For if I do this thing WILLINGLY, I have a REWARD: but if AGAINST my will, a DISPENSATION of THE GOSPEL is COMMITTED unto me” 1 Corinthians 9:16-17.
 
Why do people get so worried that in the existence and presence of the Church, the embassy and ambassador of God for human and the world redemption, that the world is still going crazy in stupidity and foolishness, and in every bad taste of trajectory with wars, hunger, distortion, confusion and unstable governments and governance. The answer it’s simply because, for all the unimaginable problems in the world – all that the world do hear and see is today is nothing but RELIGION and DENOMINATION and DOCTRINAL sectarianism, sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. Unlike the early Church Disciple’s and Apostle’s of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, who PREACHED the GOSPEL and were acclaimed as people who do turned their world inside out or upside down by the GOSPEL they proclaimed and were set to die for the cause and course.
 
“. . . 6 And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have TURNED THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN ARE COME hither also . . .” Acts 17:1-7
“Now when they saw the BOLDNESS of Peter and John, and PERCEIVED that they were UNLEARNED and IGNORANT men, they marvelled; and they took KNOWLEDGE of them, that they had BEEN with Jesus. 14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it” Acts 4:13.
 
For a no GOSPEL world in any phase and dispensation, will indicate all the worries of today and such like that we see. For only by the GOSPEL that the world can experience the EMANCIPATION from all known and unknown bondages, in order to have faith toward God’s SALVATION in Christ Jesus and to receive the REVELATION by faith to faith, of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS (righteous stand) for complete liberation of all. Romans 5:1-2; Acts 20:20-21.
 
The consummation of God’s elect for man’s salvation with religion, denomination and doctrinal sect DOGMAS will not emancipate any, no matter how much investment and resources, instead it will get people enslaved in the DOGMAS and keep them to be devoted in commitment and dedication to such-like sectarianism of believe as we see across the board.
 
Religiously denominationised and doctrinal “GOSPEL” are very destructive and keeps people in perpetual subjection and bondages and dogmas as long it’s there. That’s why Apostle Paul warns the Galatians Church of their shift from the Gospel that brought them genuine salvation into “ANOTHER GOSPEL”.
 
“I marvel that ye are so soon REMOVED from him that CALLED you into the grace of Christ unto ANOTHER GOSPEL: 7 which is NOT ANOTHER; but there be SOME that TROUBLE you, and would PERVERT THE GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though WE, or AN ANGEL from heaven, PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have RECEIVED, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9.
 
For the GOSPEL is not a religion, denomination and doctrine but the POWER and WISDOM of God for all human salvation irrespective of gender, colour, tongue and geographical location and inclinations. [Acts 17:24-30; Revelation 5:9-10; Romans 1:16-17; Romans 3:26-29].
 
The Gospel has been before the law, the psalms and the prophet; and it answered those who are outbound and out-bent by the law, Psalms and prophet’s as basis and ground of faith toward God and His Christ rather than the gospel which is Christ and express in the WORD, of which He’s the WORD (John 1:1-5, 14; 1 John 5:7). God PREACHED the GOSPEL to Father Abraham through whom the whole nation and families shall be BLESSED on the earth, long before the law, the psalms and the prophets and others came to being. Meaning also, long before religion, denomination and doctrine, was crafted and shaped by men for all to be enslaved into as a sect.
 
“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the HEATHEN through faith, PREACHED BEFORE THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith are BLESSED with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9 [2 Corinthians 5:17-21].
 
“Now the Lord had SAID unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a GREAT NATION, and I will BLESS thee, and make thy name great; AND THOU SHALT BE A BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3.
 
I am emboldened to say today, that any FOUNDATION that’s not centered on the GOSPEL wherein God’s power and wisdom are ascertained for human SALVATION and RIGHTEOUSNESS, leads to SELF, HYPE and APPLAUD and ENTITLEMENTS of men and not after God and His Christ Jesus, for the good of all mankind in Christ Jesus stead. [1 Corinthians 1:18-24].

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the defence of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.
 
“And this GOSPEL of the kingdom shall be PREACHED in all the world for a WITNESS unto all nations; and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:14.

Amen” Matthew 28:18-20.
 
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and PREACH THE GOSPEL to every creature . . . 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and PREACHED every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming THE WORD with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:15-20.
 
“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.
 
“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city” Acts 8:1-8.

THE GOSPEL – IS NOT A DOCTRINE

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL – IS NOT A DOCTRINE: IT’S THE POWER AND WISDOM OF GOD – TO HUMAN SALVATION!
 
“For the JEWS require a SIGN, and the GREEKS seek after WISDOM: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the JEWS a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the GREEKS FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto THEM which ARE CALLED, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:22-24.
 
The GOSPEL is the good news goodness about the CROSS, the CROSS is about CHRIST JESUS, and CHRIST JESUS is the POWER and WISDOM of God, and the POWER and WISDOM of God is about human SALVATION – and NOTHING ELSE and NOTHING MORE; otherwise, it’s human BONDAGES, DISTORTION , ADULTERATION and PERVERSION. The Gospel is to PREACH Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD made manifest in the flesh, that brings about COMPLETE and WHOLESOME REDEMPTION of God to all of mankind that looks up to Him. If you must PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER THE GOSPEL then ensure you PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER THE WORD – that is to PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER CHRIST JESUS, then THE WORD which is CHRIST JESUS, the SAVIOUR and LORD, will bring about human SALVATION – the ANSWERS to all human QUEST and CONTROVERSIES.
 
“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.
 
“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14.
Therefore, if the Gospel you are hearing or listening to, or receiving, does not LIBERATE you in Christ Jesus stead, throw it into the bin – discard it, I mean seriously, otherwise, you will end up in more BONDAGES than you anticipated. Your EARS and well being is not made for garbage and as a trash can for ERRONEOUS information but only meant PURELY for the GOSPEL SAYINGS of our God [Proverbs 4:20-23]. The Gospel gives life and meaning to a gracious and graceful living. The GOSPEL brings ABOUT the POWER of God unto human – DELIVERANCE, HEALING, PEACE, TRANQUILITY, SOUNDNESS, VICTORY, PROSPERITY, TRIUMPH, MERCY, FORGIVENESS, JOY AND SUCH LIKE MORE.
 
“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with ONE ACCORD GAVE HEED unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and SEEING the MIRACLES which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY” Acts 8:4-8.
 
The Apostles, who were the forerunner of the Christ Jesus as Disciples, did nothing but PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED the WORD – ministered Christ Jesus as their sole and only message that transforms all who believes in the Gospel [Acts 8:4-8; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11]. There wasn’t any form to tolerate the GOSPEL adulteration with DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL sects spirits. For by the GOSPEL, in two years plus, Apostle was able to reach out to the entire Asia of his days, changing and transforming lives toward God and His Christ and not to themselves or religion or denomination as we see today. [Acts 19:10-12].
 
For the GOSPEL is not a RELIGION, not a DOCTRINE, not a DENOMINATION and more so, not a PROPHECY awaiting to happen to you, nor is it a TRADITIONAL or RELIGIOUS dogmas, creeds, bylaws and philosophy to adhere toward. The Gospel is the life, the very life of Father God, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit, in us. [1 John 4:4-6; Acts 17:28; 1 John 5:7]. As such, FLEE from every contrary and live in the liberty wherein Christ Jesus had MADE you WHOLE and FREE in Father God’s BLESSEDNESS. Amen.
 
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also ye ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ DIED for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures . . . 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.
 
And the GOSPEL have been PREACHED to Abraham concerning you by God for over 400 years long before the law came into effect and more so before the days of kings and prophets came into operation. Thus indicating the power and wisdom of God in redemption concerning you in every respect as it’s written:
“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.
 
“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” Genesis 12:1-3.
 
It’s time to ensure you live by the GOSPEL and not by religion, doctrine, denomination creeds and bye-laws, traditional dogmas and sentiments. For the GOSPEL is not in fragmentation. It’s whole, complete and total embraces all about our REDEMPTION ACTS and PROCESSES, and our REDEMPTION RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES. And there’s only one GOSPEL of Christ Jesus [Philippians 1:27; 1 Thessalonians 3:2; 1 Corinthians 1:30] and not in any other in fragments as many do today by depicting themselves as being the MINISTER of various sects as having the MINISTRY of – SANCTIFICATION, HOLINESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS, FAITH, JUSTIFICATION, DELIVERANCE, PROSPERITY and such like. There’s no one single place in the new creation EPISTLES where the Apostle’s fragmented the Gospel into small unit ministry by any form of DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL sects settings and fragmentations of the GOSPEL of Christ Jesus.
 
Therefore, PREACH the GOSPEL! TEACH the GOSPEL!! and MINISTER the GOSPEL!!! Do this in wholeness with none of the fragment and fragmentations that’s depict as GOSPEL when indeed it leads to bondages by the man-made DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL inclination as ministry and calling. Let Christ only be the GOSPEL – [Philippians 1:15-18; Galatians 1:6-9].
 
And you don’t need DELIVERANCE, you need the GOSPEL. The Gospel brings about deliverance – to set the captives free. And Christ Jesus, who is the GOSPEL is the deliverer that sets the captives free and has DELIVERED us and translated us into the Kingdom of God by the Gospel we’ve heard [Luke 4:18 (14-22); Colossians 1:12-14]. And when you hear the GOSPEL and believe the GOSPEL, your deliverance is come by the power of the Gospel [Romans 1:16-17]. Only by the Gospel message can deliverance comes to any – any else it’s a mistaken [erroneous] message. [Matthew 22:29].

May God cause you to abound by the Gospel in order to have the fulness of His BLESSEDNESS in REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL

By Leave a Comment

NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL: THEN GO FORTH TO – PREACH – TEACH – AND MINISTER – THE GOSPEL TO ANY!

Are you ASHAMED or EMBOLDENED to PREACH, TEACH AND MINISTER the GOSPEL to the unreached, untouched and unsaved within your family, community and environment? Do you know the cost of a soul?

“. . . .They that TRUST in their WEALTH, and BOAST themselves in the multitude of their RICHES; 7 none of them can by any means REDEEM his brother, nor GIVE to God a ransom for him, 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their soul is PRECIOUS, and it ceaseth for ever:) 9 that he should still LIVE for ever, and not see corruption . . . “ Psalms 49:1-20 Amplified.

The cost of a soul is not qualified or quantified by any de facto CURRENCY in humanity and nothing on earth can be equivalent to amount to the cost of that soul near you, that might needs the GOSPEL while you yet passed by as if it doesn’t matter.

There’s NO contention, controversy, prejudice and dissimulation [HYPOCRISY] in the GOSPEL – and that’s what makes it unique in all in making difference in all. For the GOSPEL is not a doctrine to be taught. It is the enabling power of God that gives HOPE, FAITH and LOVE that everyone needs to do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the flesh, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

Ensure your day to day by the Gospel. It’s the hallmark of a purpose-driven with God, to live a meaningful and fulfilling life in the grace.

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“For THE PREACHING of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is THE POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy THE WISDOM of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish THE WISDOM of this world? 21 For after that in THE WISDOM of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For THE JEWS require a sign, and THE GREEKS seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ crucified, unto the JEWS a stumblingblock, and unto the GREEKS foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24.

“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were HEALED. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that city” Acts 8:4-8.

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye STAND; 2 by which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.

“And Jesus went about all the CITIES and VILLAGES, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the gospel of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35.

“And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to PREACH the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:16-22.

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.

ENSURING THE PROFITABLE LIVING IN THE FAITH

By Leave a Comment

ENSURING THE PROFITABLE LIVING IN THE FAITH: LIMITED BY AN UNBELIEF!

“BLESSED be the Lord, who DAILY LOADETH US WITH BENEFITS, even the God of our SALVATION. Selah” Psalms 68:19.

Our God of the heavens and the earth, have ensured in His assured redemption in Christ Jesus, that all who comes to know and accept Him as the only true God and in Christ Jesus by FAITH, through the effectual working of the Holy Spirit of conviction and conversion, are to be beneficiaries of His BLESSEDNESS [Acts 20:20-21; John 17:2; John 3:16]. And to ensure His word, we are enjoined to know in the Holy writ of Psalms 68:19, that God in His BLESSEDNESS wants us to have LOADS of the BENEFITS of being His people in Christ Jesus as the chosen generation [1 Peter 2:9-10]. And He ensures that we are LOADED DAILY with His BENEFITS (PROFITS) in the BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead as enjoined the Holy writ of Psalms 68:19 above.

And having a BEFITTING LIFE, means having a PROFITABLE LIVING; and it’s in God’s good-hearted thoughts, plans and intentions for His children. And He wants to give ALL His children a hope and a future in His set default in redemption rights and privileges in Christ Jesus – and this rights and privileges in redemption, have been rightly set in place from the beginning of time as a default. And it’s of our CHOICE to ensure that our God’s intent for us to have a PROFITABLE LIVING as we SERVE Him ACCEPTABLY and WORSHIP in WORTHILY in spirit and in truth comes to reality.

“A GLORIOUS THRONE, set on HIGH from the BEGINNING, is the PLACE of our sanctuary (the temple)” Jeremiah 17:12/AMP.

“For I know the THOUGHTS and PLANS that I have for you, says the Lord, THOUGHTS and PLANS for WELFARE and PEACE and NOT FOR EVIL, to give you HOPE in your FINAL OUTCOME” Jeremiah 29:11/AMP [Classic Edition]

Having now known that, to BENEFIT is to PROFIT in any endeavour of exercise, especially in the fulness of God’s given grace, upon which we stand justified by faith and have access by faith, toward God and faith in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ – what manner of person ought we to be in order to have the promised PROFITABLE LIVING [BENEFITING LIFE] to become a daily reality as we do life and live godly.

Now you’ve known God’s gracious intent and plans and thoughts towards you, you need to know that the major predicament, danger, limitation or hindrance that will prohibits and take us off from having the daily ASSURED PROFITABLE LIVING is UNBELIEF. Unbelief is a spiritual cancerous disease that’s unbounding in affecting the reason why many are not actualising the fulness of God’s promised BLESSEDNESS in redemption.

The effects and results of UNBELIEF it’s that it takes one to unscriptural places while others do find themselves in places, they ought not to be in seeking for answers. Some ends up in sorcery, divining, witchcraft, magic and such like places eventually as in [Deuteronomy 18:9-14; Acts 19:13-20]; and while some overtime find themselves in the hands of falsehoods ministers as ‘Simon of Samaria’ and many others who appears as angels of light and ministers of God but are ravening wolves in sheep clothing’s and Satan cohorts agents that infiltrating into the Church [Acts 8:9-25 (1-25); 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; Matthew 7:15; Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Peter 5:8-10].

UNBELIEF has robbed many of their BLESSEDNESS in redemption. And God abhors those who have UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING toward His word – written or spoken or by any format factor in context, to meet their respective needs of Him. UNBELIEF hinders FAITH operation in every endeavour that one intends to embark upon in the name of God. For without FAITH, it’s impossible to please God [Hebrews 11:6]. And it’s impossible to OVERCOME the world system of doing life that contravenes the default of God and that’s set in operation to give one the assured profitable living according to the scripture [1 John 5:4-5]. For all things is possible with God and to them that believe only.

“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is IMPOSSIBLE; but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Matthew 19:26 [Mark 10:27].

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

UNBELIEF creates fears; and fear phobia’s torments, subverts and keeps one from actualising the enabling gracious gifts and power of God [2 Timothy 1:6-7; 1 John 4:17-18; Hebrews 2:14-15; Luke 1:68-75]; the spirit of fear is not only that it leads to bondages, but it’s a bondage and it captivates the human spirit, making life a challenging and difficult atmosphere to ensure that the assured PROFITABLE LIVING becomes a reality.

“Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou STIR UP THE GIFT of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath NOT GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR [TIMIDITY, COWARDICE]; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:6-7.

“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love; but perfect love CASTETH OUT FEAR: because FEAR hath TORMENT. He that FEARETH is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18.

“Forasmuch then as the children are PARTAKERS of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the POWER of death, that is, the devil; 15 and DELIVER them who through FEAR of death were all their LIFETIME SUBJECT TO BONDAGE” Hebrews 2:14-15.

“BLESSED be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath VISITED and REDEEMED his people . . .  74 that he would grant unto us, that we being DELIVERED out of THE HAND of our ENEMIES might SERVE HIM WITHOUT FEAR, 75 in holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life” Luke 1:68-75.

And with the grip of fear, it makes the redeemed intending to serve God question God’s word and doubt Him through UNBELIEF. Hence, UNBELIEF is not of God; God detest UNBELIEF; and Jesus emphasised it severally, over and over in His humanity, that UNBELIEF will rob one of the BLESSEDNESS in Him, in redemption, and hinders the Father God’s intent – which is to LOAD US DAILY, with the benefitting life [profitable living] as ASSUREDLY promised.

“Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, WHY COULD NOT WE CAST HIM OUT? 20 And Jesus said unto them, BECAUSE OF YOUR UNBELIEF: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you” Matthew 17:19-20 [Matthew 13:57-58].

“And he could there DO NO MIGHTY WORK, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. 6 And He MARVELLED because of their UNBELIEF. And he went round about the villages, teaching” Mark 6:5-6 [Mark 16:14-15].

And in the context of the Believers of God in Christ Jesus, PROFITABLE LIVING it’s all about experiencing the BENEFITS as a beneficiary – having a BENEFITTING LIFE [PROFITABLE LIVING] in the FAITH of God in Christ Jesus. There’s an assured profitable living in the FAITH wherein God had set us free in Christ Jesus. And Father God in our redemption in Christ Jesus, wants us to profit, that’s to benefit in the fulness of His grace for us. Unbelief is the act of not mixing the word of God with FAITH to PLEASE God and the ABSENCE of God in one’s life – for only by FAITH that one can bring about their earnest desires into fruition through God’s word in Christ Jesus. For the children of ISRAELITES did not PROFIT to enter their promised BLESSEDNESS, simply because of UNBELIEF [a rejection and an absence of God]. They arrogantly did not mix the preached word they heard with faith, and it costs them deadly at the end.

“For unto us was the GOSPEL PREACHED, as well as unto them: but THE WORD PREACHED DID NOT PROFIT THEM, not being MIXED with FAITH in them that heard it” Hebrews 4:2.

“For indeed we have had the GLAD TIDINGS [GOSPEL OF GOD] PROCLAIMED to us just as truly as they [the ISRAELITES of old did when the GOOD NEWS of deliverance from bondage came to them]; but the MESSAGE they heard DID NOT BENEFIT them, because it was NOT MIXED WITH FAITH (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they united in faith with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe)” Hebrews 4:2/AMP [Classic Edition].

“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of UNBELIEF, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be HARDENED through the DECEITFULNESS of sin . . . 18 And to whom SWARE He that they should NOT ENTER INTO HIS REST, BUT TO THEM THAT BELIEVED NOT? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of UNBELIEF” Hebrews 3:12-13, 28-19.

Many will God to hell on eternal damnation for their UNBELIEF. For simply on them not believing that God’s love for them in His Son Jesus Christ, and for the UNBELIEF cause in totality in the rejection of the redemption essence and for the UNBELIEF cause in undermining the complete and wholesome actualisation of the PROFITABLE LIVING, as enjoined in the scriptures for their well-being.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HATH NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“And [at the same time] Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and confidently, saying, “It was necessary that God’s message [of salvation through faith in Christ] be spoken to you [Jews] first. Since you REPUDIATE it and JUDGE yourselves unworthy of eternal life, now we turn to the Gentiles . . . 48 When the Gentiles HEARD this, they began rejoicing and glorifying [praising and giving thanks for] the word of the Lord; and all those who had been appointed (designated, ordained) to eternal life [by God] BELIEVED [in Jesus as the Christ and their Savior]” Acts 13:46, 48/AMP.

“. . . 9 For in Him [Christ Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 AND YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM [CHRIST JESUS], which is the head of all principality and power . . .” Colossians 2:8-15.

The Bible, which is God-breathed WORD, it’s God’s instructions, counsel, correction, restoration, training and such like, for our PROFITABLE LIVING in Christ Jesus stead. And it’s as we LIVE through the SCRIPTURES in faith on the WORD of grace, we can share in the promised BLESSEDNESS, as many others before us, in our PROFITABLE LIVING inheritance in Him.

“All SCRIPTURE is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is PROFITABLE for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work” 2 Timothy 3:16-17/Amplified [AMP].

“For WHATEVER was WRITTEN in earlier TIMES was WRITTEN for our INSTRUCTION, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the SCRIPTURES we might have HOPE and OVERFLOW with CONFIDENCE in His PROMISES” Romans 15:4/Amplified [AMP].

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD OF HIS GRACE, which is able to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among ALL them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

Therefore, I do hope that you can now be intentional and pragmatical today, to be resolved within you, to start living by FAITH and BELIEVING God and His WORD, instead of living in UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING that robs you of the best of God, as you choose to step up in an onward and upward trajectory, as do life and live godly, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Blessed read.
