TOPIC: IDOLIZING MARY IS A GRAVE SIN                             April Tuesday 14th
Text: Luke 1:26-38
Key Verse: Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

The fact that angel Gabriel saluted Mary as blessed among women has made many to ascribe adoration, honour and worship to her. However, this erroneous practice by misguided people should not take away the wonderful virtues that believers can observe in her life. Although our primary attention is unto the Lord Jesus which actually matters, we should also know that there are things to learn from the saints of the Bible.

Mary who was the mother of Jesus Christ was a saint, and not a sinner. She was godly, righteous, pure and holy. But sadly, she has often been misunderstood as a goddess. Many people still find it difficult to understand the personality of Mary and have therefore idolized her as a goddess. This misperception has led many to believe in worshipping her on a daily basis with the understanding that they will receive answers to their prayers. From the scriptural examination above, we have seen how Mary found favour with God the Father, to be the mother of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of mankind. This favour has often been misinterpreted by some sects who call her mother of God. Jesus Christ has a dual personality being both God and Man. Mary was only the mother of Jesus Christ after the flesh (as Man), not as God. God cannot have a mother!

The heathen idol worshippers that worship the female gods have demonically taken it farther by turning Mary into a female goddess thereby forgetting the main object of worship, Jesus Christ. They worship her as the mother of God. These worshippers are doing so after the spirit of paganism and their action is equivalent to committing idolatry (Exodus 20:1-5).  They do this in ignorance to the detriment and damnation of their souls in hell.

Thought for the day: Those who worship Mary are into idolatry.
Song for the day: Jesus only is our message
Bible reading for the day:
1 Samuel 15-16; Luke 14:23-35

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...

January Saturday 18th TOPIC: HOW TO ATTAIN BIBLE HOLINESS TEXT: Romans 6:20-23 KEY VERSE: Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. Besides the essential knowledge of the holy life of a Christian, it is good to understand the manner and process of becoming holy before God. Holiness of life is a life that has overcome sin through the saving power of Jesus Christ. Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. It is a life that does not commit sin. 1John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for His seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. Getting this experience requires four things: 1. Know that apart from holiness, there is no alternative lifestyle for heaven. Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holin...
