BIBLICAL TEACHING ON CHRISTIAN DRESSING MONDAY JANUARY 30 TEXT: 2TIMOTHY 2:19-21, 1TIMOTHY 2:8-10 Key verse: “Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God” 2 Corinthians 7:1. When a person is born again he is to be taught all things the Lord commanded us in the Scripture. Not all preachers of the gospel bother about the outward appearance of a believer. But holiness cannot be achieved without freedom from worldliness in physical appearance. Biblical teaching on Christian dressing is not for everyone, but for those professing godliness, who seek to be holy. This teaching is aimed at raising holy men and women for God in these last days, to present a Church without spot or wrinkle to Christ at His second coming. Founding fathers of many Christian assemblies taught against the use of Jewelry in Christian dressing, in the light of the Scriptures, to keep their members, but when their ministries passed away by death, leaders of succeeding generations succumbed to pressure from their members and allowed the use of jewelry, arguing that it is none essential or that the scripture has not really prohibited their use. The founding fathers of such assemblies did not put their conviction and doctrine into writing to make it plain and accessible to all succeeding generations. This doctrine was only emphasized verbally and when their members ceased hearing of them, their conviction weakened and faded away. The message and doctrines of the gospel were best preached and preserved through writing. There are hard scriptural texts on jewelry that require exposition to make their meaning clear. When these texts are misinterpreted or not rightly interpreted, they become stumbling blocks which make many to lose their conviction on the doctrine. Apostle Peter acknowledged that there are some portions of scripture which are hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable misinterpret to their own destruction and to the destruction of those that hear them. Any believer that refuses to conform to sound Christian teaching on Christian dressing, in modesty and sobriety, is not holy and cannot see God Thought for the day: Prayerfully study to make yourself approved unto God. Song for the day: Open my eyes O Lord, Alleluia (3x) I am ready to obey (2x)… Bible reading for the day: Exodus 22-24. Matthew 20:17-34 #horemow.

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...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
