TEACH AND ENCOURAGE PURITY IN MARRIAGE 
TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 4: 1-7
Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 4:7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, 
but unto holiness.

God honors marriage. Jesus Christ the Son honors marriage and attended a marriage ceremony in Cana of Galilee. The Holy Spirit takes the marriage picture to illustrate Christ's relationship with the Church. Therefore believers should also honor marriage. The church should honor marriage. We should teach and encourage purity in marriage for marriage is honorable in all.

Again, we must marry honorably and preserve our marriages honorably. Don't despise marriage for it is an honorable thing. Don't say, I don't bother whether I marry or not. It is an honorable thing. And when you want to marry, marry honorably, holily and righteously. Don't abuse marriage because marriage is an honorable thing. Do nothing to hinder holy marriage as a father, mother, relation or friend. Do not hinder or affect marriage. Do not ever tamper with the marriage union because it is an honorable thing and God respects it. 

Again, rejoice with them that are in marriage. When people are marrying, feel happy with them. It is a good thing, rejoice with them. Again, attend the marriage ceremony of loved ones where you can. Why should a marriage be going on in the church and people don't think that anything is going on? They feel it's not an activity. Something that God honors, something God respects? Marriage is going on, you feel it is nothing when you will come and cheer up Jesus? Are you not going to welcome Jesus who is going to be there? Respect marriage and where you can attend it. 
Support intending couples morally and financially and bless the newlywed with gifts to make them rejoice and have a wonderful experience. It is an honorable thing. Show them that God has honored them as they enter an honorable institution. Bless them with gifts and praise God for His works in marriage. 

Thought for the day: Believers must honor marriage for God has made marriage honorable
Song for the day: To God be the glory great things He has done
Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 41-42; 2 Peter 1

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
