PROMOTING LOVE AND HOLINESS IN THE CHURCH

APRIL Sunday 11th

TEXT: I CORINTHIANS12:12-14

Key Verse: “Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:3

The body of Christ here talked about different people who believe in one person (CHRIST) one faith (Christian Religion) different functionality gearing toward one goal (Heaven) defending one course (the Gospel) dead into one purpose (Baptism). Regenerated into an experience (Salvation), that is the born-again experience of forgiveness of sins, the newness of life that is achieved through the (Holy Spirit) by our Lord Jesus Christ. If this is clearly understood, then love and Holiness needs to be promoted among the members of the body of Christ, so as to foster unity in Christendom.

Today the division, the segregation, the hatred, the sectionalism, the denominationalism is so alarming that even the heathen doesn’t have such among them. Remember; Jesus the unifying factor that binds His believers together says He is coming back for that same body that is one in mind, one in faith, one in fellowship, one in Love, one in holiness and righteousness. No wonder He asked His disciples, shall I find faith when I shall come back?

Therefore the church must arise in defence of this body by promoting love and holiness among his members irrespective of the denomination, size or number and popularity, for grace, is not equal upon all. So efforts must be made by great church leaders, the clergy and the laity alike to see that this division existing in the body of Christ whether in hatred against one another or in doctrine or in competition comes to an end immediately. For we have one common archenemy, the devil.

The calling, the grace or anointing upon members of the body of Christ is not the same, so for unity to be achieved every functional member must submit, co-operate and respect one another in love, just the same way the physical body which consists of many members work together before a man can be seen as one body. If one member of the the physical body has refuses to work or is in pain; that body could be said to be sick and the body cannot stand on its feet. Every Christian, church leader should know that united we stand and divided we fall.

Thought for the day: United we stand and divided we fall.

Song for the day: It is so sweet to trust in Jesus

Bible reading for the day: 1 Samuel 7-9; Luke 13:1-21

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...

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...
