EXAMINING THE TITLE OF JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD

God bless you for taking your time to study
SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 17TH

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

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...
