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

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...
