TOPIC: GET RID OF WORLDLINESS     
DECEMBER Sunday 2nd
TEXT: 1 John 2: 12-17
KEY VERSE: Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2: 15
Worldliness refers to the lifestyles and activities of sinful men living in this world which are invented, inspired and promoted by Satan, the god of this world, which are contrary to the word, way and will of God, and which defile, corrupt and damn human souls in hell fire. Worldliness is living according to the dictates of the world. It is pure carnality. These include the following:
1. The love of money: Many people make money their god. It is their reason for living. They do many evil things to get money. They disregard God’s commands and righteous demands because of the drive for money in them.
2. The love of pleasure: sinful activities give corrupt people pleasure, such as: alcohol; sex; smoking; dancing; wickedness; worldly parties; etc. The pleasures they give are transient and temporary. Many suffer untimely death because of seeking worldly pleasures and entertainments.
3. Ungodly dressing and adornment: Many sinners in the world do not submit to decent dressing. They dress in such a way that will entice others and promote sin. They seek to achieve bodily beauty, attraction and commendation. They use articles of bodily beauty such as perfume, earrings, chains, necklace, rings, bracelets, beads, artificial hair, cosmetics, etc.
4. Search for power through witchcraft and Satanism: Many people want to display power and authority among their fellow men. Maybe they want to be feared and honoured. Some want to acquire wealth, political position or promotion.
Never seek help, prayer, healing, deliverance or blessing from witch doctors or demonized preachers. You will become defiled, unholy and unfit for heaven.
Thought for the day: Determine to live the righteous life required for heaven.
Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 47-48; 1 John 1

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 faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises.
