TOPIC: THE DOCTRINES OF SANCTIFICATION AND HOLY GHOST BAPTISM   October Sunday 20th
TEXT: John 17: 1-26
KEY VERSE: John 17:17 “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”
Sanctification is a biblical word that carries two meaning in the Bible. This first meaning is separation, dedication, set apart to God for holy use. In this respect, persons, things, and places can be sanctified or set apart unto God. In this respect Jesus was sanctified by God the Father for human salvation; Jesus sanctified Himself for the holiness of the believers.

The second biblical meaning of the word sanctification reveals sanctification as a second definite experience required in a believers by which the Holy Spirit by means of Christ’s word and His blood renders a believer purified for inherited sin, original sin, inbred sin that often weighs down the heart of a believers, the sinful pollution of pride, envy, greed, malice, anger and the likes. Sanctification experience is required to clear such from the heart and life of the believers in order to make him free and give him the gracious ability to operate and increasing holy life.

Simply put, salvation experience does in a sinner what water and detergent does to a dirty clothe. Sanctification experience rinses the cloth already washed. Both are separate experiences, but required for wholesome cleansing. As the sinners exercises faith and prays to Jesus Christ for his salvation from sin, the believers come to Christ in faith and pray to received sanctification of heart for an increasing holiness and Christ’s love in Him. John 17:14-20. Ephesians 5:24-27; Acts 26:18. Sanctification also means purity, holiness, heart circumcision.

Baptism of the Holy Ghost is the imparting of the power of the Holy Spirit in baptismal measure upon a believer in Christ. This experience is called the promise of effective Christian service. Speaking in tongues by the Holy Ghost is initial evidence that one has been baptized with the Holy Spirit. The gifts of the Holy Spirit are valid to today. These are specified in Luke 24:48-49; Acts 1:4,5,8; 1Corinthians 12:7-11.
Thought for the day: Salvation and sanctification are required for wholesome cleansing
Song for the day: Make me holy
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 3-4; 2 Thessalonians 3

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...

My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit.

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
