THE FIRST SHALL BE THE LAST
TUESDAY MARCH 27
TEXT: MARK 9:43-48
Key Verse: “And if thine hand offend thee, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched” Mark 9:43.
We shall consider the following account from the book - Escaping Hell fire and entering Heaven made simple:
Jesus, the two angels and I stood together. He pointed his hand to hell and said, “Man cannot understand the nature of the torments of hell, however, go and tell him. Tell him if all the sufferings on earth were gathered to be borne by one man, it would still not be compared to what man will suffer for 24 hours in hell. Yet man may not understand, go and still tell him”. In my third visit to heaven and hell, the Lord Jesus and the angels had welcomed me with a smile at the beautiful pearly gate. We all stood quietly at the gate. I saw that the smiling face of Jesus suddenly changed into a sad and sorrowful one. I wondered what could have been responsible for that. I understood the reason by the event that immediately followed. When we were at the gate, a believer died on earth and was coming. He died that Monday around 6:00pm, not long after I was taken up. As he was coming towards the gate he was crying and pleading “will there not be mercy and forgiveness for me again? “What really happened?
Jesus narrated to me the incidence of this man. He was a fervent believer whose name was in the Book of Life. That Monday morning, he bade farewell to his family and left for a journey. But unfortunately, Satan prepared a seductive lady against him. This lady seduced him in the public vehicle he boarded. When they arrived at their destination he took the lady to a hotel and slept with her. Within that period the devil succeeded in killing him. At the gate, he cried and pleaded with Jesus for mercy and forgiveness.
Many believers are playing with their salvation. When some are confronted with temptation they easily yield thereby frustrating the grace of God upon their lives. They hope to confess and repent after sinning, but this is gambling with your only soul which Christ has redeemed with his blood. The situation of this man reveals the present state of many Christian in the church today. They are in the church but out of the narrow way. Apostle Paul describes them this way in Titus 1:16, “They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.”

Thought for the day: Live with the consciousness of eternity
Song for the day: Take time to be holy...
Bible reading for the day: Joshua 19-20; Luke 5:17-39

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...

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.

Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
