TOPIC: THERE IS NO SALVATION IN ANY OTHER NAME. FRIDAY JULY 21
TEXT: JOHN 3:16-18
KEY VERSE: Key Verse: “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men; whereby we must be saved”.(Acts 4:12).

God is the source of salvation. He is the foundation and basis of man's salvation. He accomplished the salvation of man in Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary. The salvation of man was the main reason why Christ came to the world. The Bible says “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.” The apostles stressed the invariability of salvation through Jesus when they said, “Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Only Jesus possesses the divine ability and authority to give salvation to man. Christ is the sole source of our salvation via His sinless life and His substitutionary atonement. He shed his blood for the remission of our sins. Only a perfect, complete and incorruptible righteousness can secure a perfect and complete salvation and this we find in Christ.

The ground of salvation is a righteousness that satisfies God's justice and this is found only in Jesus. Jesus saith, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me. He is the lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. There is no access to the Father except through Christ. With respect to their merit, with respect to their personal righteousness, all men are classified as having: “sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” How, then, are sinners justified? How, then, are sinners declared righteous? The sinner is justified, in spite of his lack of merit, in spite of his condemnation, by God's grace wherein God supplies the needed righteousness in His son and accepts what is supplied in His son on the sinner's behalf.

However, appropriation of the salvation brought by Christ involves the sinner's response. We are justified by faith. This faith is not faith in self-justification, but faith directed toward Christ. It is accepting, receiving and resting upon Christ alone for salvation.

Thought for the day: Only Jesus can save!
Song for the day: Oh hallelujah, salvation is from God alone…
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 34-35; Acts 22

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
