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...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
