TOPIC: MAKE ETERNAL LIFE THE CORE MESSAGE ON PULPIT – Part 2

TEXT:  Colossians 1:27-29
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. 

Prophesy is for our comfort, exhortation and edification but it is not the ultimate in Christian life because prophecy will cease. They are minor matters of the law, yet people spend their time on prophesy, manufacturing prophesies, running up and down for prophesies; but eternal life is not in it. Even sinners can give prophesies. Didn’t Pharaoh prophesy and his prophesy was right as he dreamed? Is he now in heaven because he prophesied? Are the people he prophesied to in heaven? 

Why then should you spend your time majoring on minor issues and you are not concerned about the matters of eternal life? You don’t bother about issues of eternal life in your ministry, but you are busy prophesying and counting your prophesies that have come to pass. Have your prophesies taken any soul to heaven? 

Seed Faith is another thing they preach now. They say, ‘Give, give, try the Lord. Sow seeds, sow seeds into my life.’ Somebody gave a testimony of what the Lord did and someone else will say he has come to sow seed into that testimony. Where did they get these doctrines from? But the bottom line is that seed-sowing is bringing more money into the church.  It has nothing to do with salvation from sin; nothing to do with eternal life. The sinner sows seed and remains a candidate of hell.  

What about anointed materials like handkerchiefs, aprons, stones, woods, water, oil, salt, clothes, shoes. Do they give heaven? When a man of God got up from a seat and you came later to sit on it because you want to tap into anointing, does that take you to heaven? Does the seat of the man of God give heaven? Does it deliver from sin? Jesus said woe unto these people, they have left weightier matters and are facing menial matters that play no significant part on eternal life.

Also, some preach denominational uniqueness. They preach how unique and special their denomination is. Does that give heaven? Does the beauty of the church structure or size of the congregation give heaven? Much attention is being paid to praise, worship and dances because that is where the members get “revived”. Without these dances they are sleeping, but nobody sleeps when it is time for dancing. They engage in dancing completion in the church to gratify the flesh. These minor issues of Christianity have become major preoccupation of the Church.  

Thought for the day: Value the soul of your hearer above his possessions.

Song for the day: Revive Thy church oh Lord….

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 18-19; Matthew 27:32-66 #Horemow

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
