OTHERS MAY; I CANNOT

God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study. 

TOPIC: OTHERS MAY; I CANNOT 

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 10TH

TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 5: 21-24
Key verse: Genesis 3:21: Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins and clothed them.
Question: Is it proper for a Christian tailor to collect trousers from an unbeliever for amendment or sew an open-back or show-breasts for unbelievers?
Answer: It is not proper. I appreciate this type of question. Tailors should not sew any cloth that will make women stumbling blocks to children of God. They are partakers of the sins of those people. So, a tailor must reject any cloth that does not conform to the standard of righteousness. Although some may say, ‘If I do so where will I find my food?’ What shall it profit you if you can eat all the food and go to hell? Trust God to feed you. He will bring true customers to you or else give you another business. God can do that. 
Comments by questioner: Genesis 3:21 talks about the purpose why God made clothing; to cover the nakedness of man. However, we are in a changing world and it seems that most believers are changing with the changing world. Most especially in this area of the dressing standard of attire. Most sisters used to wear clothes that covered their nakedness but the new generation of sisters now open their chests and their backs. It has become a general practice that is corrupting the children of God. So, I want us to emphasize that area because personally, it disturbs my heart.
Answer: You have added to it and they have heard you.
Question: Is it advisable to use a body cream that is not bleaching? Is it right to direct people to those that sell cosmetics?
Answer: Yes, it makes you appear decent and you are not a laughingstock. You are not achieving anything other than making white skin and crack look decent and nothing other than that. Once you know the cosmetic you are directing them to, it is the wicked type you are not to do that.

Thought for the day: Salvation is free but the cost of discipleship is high

Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus

Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 17-18; 2 Corinthians 2

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

The Source Of Faith

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
