TOPIC: HANDLING CHURCH CONFLICTS IN MARRIAGE
JULY SUNDAY 8th

TEXT:  Acts 5:27-29
KEY VERSE: I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Luke 17: 34
Church conflict arises in marriage when the couple worship in different churches and there is disagreement over denominational doctrines. Many believers are of the opinion that since the couple is one in flesh and God has placed the man as head of the family, the two should worship in the husband’s church. While it is true that husband and wife are one in flesh, they are NOT one in soul. God expects each of them to understand Him personally and deal with Him individually. The heavenly race is personal and not collective like a relay race. The key verse of today shows that at the second coming of the Lord, while husband and wife are sleeping together in one bed, one shall be taken and the other left behind. Each person will be dealt with according to his or her relationship with God, notwithstanding the spiritual state of his or her partner.
Ezekiel 18:4, 20, “4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die. 20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Common areas of church conflict in marriage include the following:
• The notion that wife must attend husband’s church. This is unscriptural
• Absolute control by the husband. The wife’s submission to husband is qualified and not absolute. Her first loyalty is to God, not her husband. The wife will only submit as much as it conforms with God’s command or “fits in the Lord” (Colossians 3:18).
• Persecution by husband. This is particularly prevalent when the husband is not born again or when he is involved in fetish practices or occultism (John 3:19-20). In this situation, let the wife endure persecution because she is blessed for suffering for Christ (Matthew 5:10-11).
• Ignorance: Many are yet to understand that the holiness teaching and preaching going on in Holiness Revival Movement is an absolute necessity to prepare them for heaven. They are held in denominational bondage which make them restrain their wives from coming to HOREMOW fellowship.
Humble yourself, join the five wise virgins, go the extra mile for Jesus. Wives don’t give up; your freedom is coming shortly. Your joy is an everlasting one.

Thought for the day: Live to please God, not a mere mortal
Song for the day: Jesus must be honoured in my life everyday
Bible reading for the day:
Job 38-39; Acts  15:1-21

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

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...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
