THE SONSHIP OF JESUS COMPARED TO THE SONSHIP OF ADAM

God bless you for taking the time to study.

THE SONSHIP OF JESUS COMPARED TO THE SONSHIP OF ADAM

TEXT: LUKE 3:38 

TUESDAY MARCH 21st 

Key verse: Matthew 1:22 “Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.”
Adam was not born through God meeting with a woman. God created him. God gave existence to Adam. He was not born through the copulation of a man and a woman. He was the direct creation of God. In this Scripture, Adam is called son which begins with a small letter because his sonship is not the same thing as Jesus' Sonship to God. That of Adam means that God created him but Jesus as “the only begotten Son of God” shows that He came from heaven as the second Person in the Godhead, being God Himself.
Jesus called Himself the Son of man to show that He was completely man and could be hungry, tempted by the devil and was subject to God in heaven and to suffering in the body. The Scripture confirms that Jesus has been in existence as God in heaven. Adam was from beneath, created in this world but Jesus as a Son was not created and was not of this world. Jesus was from above. He said, “I am not of this world.” Jesus was not just a man but God Himself in human flesh. From eternity Jesus did not bear the title “Son” but He bore it for the purpose of redemption. 
The Father sent Jesus for human redemption but this title was not there from eternity past. The name “Jesus” was not His eternal name because that name means “Saviour.” Before mankind came into this world there was no need for salvation, hence, there was no need for a Saviour. The name became necessary when mankind became sinful and God had to put in place a redemption plan. The name “Jesus” is an earthly name and others bore that name too. “Jesus” means God is our Saviour, anybody can bear that name in the expression of that truth but as the Saviour of mankind, that name has been attached to Him forever. When we call that name now our hearts go to Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Thought for the day: The son-ship of Jesus is different from that of Adam

Song for the day: Jesus is the Alpha, Alph, and Omega …

Bible reading for the day: Joshua 4-6; Luke 2:1-24

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
