TOPIC: TRUTH IS THE CURE OF IGNORANCE
TEXT: GENESIS 20:1-8
KEY VERSE: JOHN 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

In the secular world, scientists, politicians, educationists and other enlightened members of the society lament over the evil and death pangs ignorance casts upon men and women in the society. From biblical perspective, the world is in total ignorance of God’s way of salvation. This is the reason for the diverse beliefs and religions that strive along with Christianity among men. It is unfortunate also to say that the major portion of the church of Christ today is ignorant of true biblical teachings required for their holiness and eternal life. An ignorant man is like a man moving towards a fast-moving truck with his eyes closed. This is very dangerous! He could be crushed by the truck. In Law, ignorance is not an excuse. Even with God, ignorance is not an excuse. Leviticus 5:17 says, “And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD; though he wist it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.” This is why it is in your interest to know all the truth of God in holy living and live by them to preserve your salvation.

In today’s reading text, despite King Abimelech’s claim of innocence and pureness of heart, he was still subject to the judgment of God. When confronted by God, this king pleaded innocence due to his ignorance of the truth about Sarah’s marital status. But did that exempt him from the judgment of God? No! He had committed sin, broken God’s law by taking another man’s wife and was entitled to death according to God’s word. The king argued his case with God, thinking he would be justified, as many do today thinking God will understand because of their peculiar situation. The king’s ignorance did not exonerate him from God’s judgment— the king was doomed to die. In the same way, if you break God’s commandment on the excuse of being a widow or an orphan or on account of joblessness or any other pitiable condition, God will still hold you accountable. Know the truth about the ways of God and be saved.

Thought for the day: Only the truth can set you free.
Song for the day: On the last day, on the last day, only true believers shall be raptured.
Bible reading for the day:
Exodus 29-30; Matthew 22:1-22

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...
