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

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
