REBORN AGAIN

   In the body of Christ, we have a lot of controversies, but I never thought there should be any misunderstanding about the word " born again". We know that being born again is the death(not dying) of the natural man and the resurrection​ of the spirit man in Christ.   Meaning being dead totally to the works of the flesh and walking in the spirit. Letting the Holy Spirit take the lead and direct our thoughts, words, and action and not following our hearts because it is desperately wicked and no man can understand it.  The acceptance of Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior for the rest our lives isn't just a minute declaration or a day quietness, but a lifetime acknowledgment of Christ as the all in all Controller of our lives. I have heard people say they are born again and just for the sake of peace, they were not questioned. Many people have rendered the word uselessly by living a life contradicting the status they profess. The process of dying to self...

Christianity

   Some people have established that the life of a believer is not a religious one, but a way of life . While that is right, we must also understand that it's not only a culture - a way of life, but also THE WAY IN LIFE.   As Christians, we have a life patterned after Christ Jesus and also understand that in Him, we live, move and have our being. The pattern makes a lifestyle and because it's different, the world made it a religion.  People of the world sees us as " extreme moralist" . This is as a result of the darkness in the earth which cause them not to see the force backing us up and personality within us. Christianity is way more than a religion. It's the life of Christ express in us. This also is the reason why we all must let our light shine. To some, we are pretenders, and come see us as liars.  It's not our work to defend ourselves, let the Lord reveal His power. They can't understand because darkness (ignorance, lusts, anger, pr...

BE IT!!!

   Can you imagine someone being in the position to pass instructions to people on a particular platform and you can't connect with what he/she is saying?   Or someone trying to advertise the functions of a drug and what it can do and you can obviously see the disease on him/her. Won't you ask why he/she is not using it?  This can also be related to many people who stand for the things they are not. How can you speak against certain things that when you aren't any different?  We live in a generation where there are too many signposts and billboards. These are the people that point to the way and never leave the spot they are. Why would I decide to make people understand and see what the Lord can do and yet not experience it?     Enough of modern-day Pharisees and Sadducees. Be What You Preach, Teach Or Stand For First  before you impose or pass it to others to become. What is the essence of your message? For everythin...

For your sake

Out of greed for money, He was betrayed. So that some might maintain their position and scared to admit the truth, they lied and imprisoned Him.  He took up the challenge that the scriptures might be fulfilled. He didn't speak for Himself neither did He break the Law, rather He fulfilled it- the totality of it in the will of God.  He preached and practice the God, the law and the prophets hangs on what He taught and loved - Love. He had compassion and mercy on us. Mankind became free and empowered to go into greater heights in Christ through the Holy -Spirit that was sent to man when He left. Freedom came from forty lashes, crown of thorns, nakedness, crushed, bruised and death on the cross of one man - Jesus Christ. There is no greater love than a man lay down his life for his friends. Don't see this as a story of a generous guy that is willing to just die. He did all He did in God's will for your sake. How long will you stay bound? He's wait...

Poor in Spirit

Can you imagine when a boy who can't even feed himself without his parents, decides to stand alone because he thinks he's got all it takes to become the head of a family? You know he has set himself up for troubles.  When the devil thought that he can set his throne above God's, he found himself in far below expectations. Can you imagine what and how a creation can do and live without the creator? Miserable is an understatement. As much as an invention is dependent on the manufacturer. So is everything made by God is structured to survive in Him. God is LIFE and only Him can supply it, anything outside Him is DEATH!!!  I know we must have come across the scriptural verse that talked about "poor in spirit"-(Matthew 5:3). This is the genetic makeup of man. Finding sources outside of God will cause the person to be miserable.  There are times when we feel we've tried all we can to have a thing and we find ourselves at the end of the road and it l...
