TOPIC: THE ELDER's CREED (Part 4)

TEXT: 1 John 1:1-4

Key verse: John 17:8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me;and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, andthey have believed that thou didst send me.

From Delightful Revelation Of Heaven And How To Get There by Pastor Paul Rika:

11. We universally believe that the death of Christ was vicarious and propitiatory and that by it divine justice is satisfied and God can be just and the justifier of all who believe in Christ Jesus, and that pardon and salvation is freely
offered to all men, upon repentance and faith.

12. We believe God did foreordain and devise a plan from the foundation of the world by which He would save man, and further, He did foreordain from the beginning, all men throughout the ages who would accept and be willing to conform to this plan, should be saved; so that everyone in harmony with His power and liberty of choice who shall choose eternal life through God's plan was foreordained to eternal salvation.

13. True repentance is a condition of soul before God, wrought by the operations of the Spirit of God upon the heart, and soul of man whereby he is made to see and feel the sinfulness of his sins, and also to forsake them utterly, and with full purpose of heart to yield obedience to God in the future.

14. Justification can only follow true repentance and is an act of God's free grace wherein He pardoneth the sins of man, and accepteth him as righteous in His sight, only for the sake of Christ.

15. True unfeigned faith in God believes all that God has said, commanded, promised or threatened. It is dependent upon testimony, and is valuable to us as the truth itself. We can believe in men. We are responsible for our faith, for one may believe a lie as he does the truth. The truth only can make him free.
True saving, faith leads the soul to trust itself to the all-atoning merits of the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

16. Adoption is an act of God whereby the believing sinner is received into the family of God, with all the rights and privileges of His children in which he becomes an heir of God with a right and, a title to eternal life.

13. The new birth of which our Lord spoke is that, mighty change wrought of God in the soul of man, when He imparts to him eternal life and renews him in the image of God. This change is the work of the Holy Spirit wrought in man,
convincing of sin, and leading him to repentance and faith whereby he is born from above with eternal life as a gift from God.

Thought for the day: True unfeigned faith in God believes all that God has said.

Song for the day: Forever O Lord, Thy word is settled in heaven.

Bible reading for the day: 2 Kings 18-19; John 6:22-44

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...
