TOPIC: PREACH SOUND DOCTRINE
TEXT: Titus 2:1-10
KEY VERSE: Proverbs 23:23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

Sound doctrine is the cornerstone of Christian living. Unfortunately, there are many Churches that practice “choose and pick” in administering the word of God. It is like when you visit the supermarket and pick products of your choice, take them to the cashier, pay for them and thereafter take them home to use. They forget that God does not run a supermarket. God’s commandment is that ALL his laws must be obeyed, not selective obedience. Mathew 28:20 “Teaching them to observe ALL THINGS whatsoever I have commanded you.” Jesus told the Laodicean Church, “Buy from me gold tried in the fire so that you can be rich.” In this scripture, Jesus is not expressing the riches of the world. The riches of the world are material, but that which Jesus is talking about here are spiritual riches that well up to eternal life.

Every year, the Forbes’ List contains the names of the richest men in the world arranged in order of the size of their wealth. We have the richest man in Africa, the richest man in the world etc. When you examine this list with the binoculars of heaven, you will discover that none of them is known to the God of heaven. They are among the world’s celebrities but inconsequential in heaven. What a tragedy! What is the value of wealth in the absence of eternal life? Mark 8:36-37 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

When Jesus said “buy from me gold tried in the fire so that you can be rich,” He was referring to sound doctrine of God’s word. Jesus was saying: get the truth, buy the truth from Me so that you can preach the whole truth as a complete package of salvation. Some churches do not preach restitution, some of them don’t preach baptism in the Holy Ghost. Some go about their water baptism in a wrong way. They sprinkle small water on your head or throw it at your face instead of following the pattern laid down in scripture, which is baptism by immersion. Why are they not doing the right thing? It is because they don’t have the sound doctrine. The power of the word they preach is not strong to save. The best preacher among them can never preach the gospel of perfection because he doesn’t know it.

Thought for the day: Sound doctrine is sound life.
Song for the day: Something more than gold … the word of God in the life of man…
Bible reading for the day:
Exodus 37-38; Matthew 23:23-39

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, ...
