EXAMINING THE TITLE OF JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD.

TEXT: JOHN 10:30-32  

Key verse: 1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”
Many stumble at what the Son of God means. They say, “If Jesus is the Son of God that means God has a wife.” That is human reasoning. Let us look at it this way: God made man in His image and man is three persons in one - the spirit, soul, and body. A man may be lying down in one place while his spirit goes elsewhere. Sometimes, the spirit and the soul are joined together although they can be separated. Man is three persons as seen in God. In Genesis 1:27, God said let us make man to resemble us: We have one God but He exists in three separate Persons; God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit, just as man is spirit, soul, and body, but one man.
When Jesus came down to the world as a man, the Father was still in heaven. Every person that is born as a child is the son or daughter of somebody through the copulation of a man and a woman but in the case of Jesus, the mother had no copulation with any man; hence no mortal man can claim to be His father. Jesus is the begotten Son of God, which means that He has His origin in God. He is God and one of the three Persons in the Godhead.
Jesus died for the whole world. He finished the work of human salvation before He left the earth. Why would a man claim that God sent him to humanity with a message different from that of Jesus? Jesus finished all that was required for human salvation before He left the earth. So, whoever said God sent him is not true because what is perfectly completed needs no additional work. When Jesus resurrected from the dead, He told His disciples that they should go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Jesus said this because He knew no messenger or prophet was coming into the world with a different message from God. Jesus had finished the final sacrifice and delivered the final word or message required for the salvation of all men. For this reason, Jesus, being God Himself, cannot send a man to humanity with another message.
Thought for the day: Jesus is the Son of God, the only way to heaven.
Song for the day: Jesus must be honored (3x), in my life every day
Bible reading for the day: Ecclesiastes 1-3; 2 Corinthians 9

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. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
