THE ANCIENT LANDMARK ON REMOVAL OF JEWELRY

God bless you for taking the time to study.

THE ANCIENT LANDMARK ON REMOVAL OF JEWELRY 

TEXT: Exodus 33:4-6 

FRIDAY JUNE 2ND 

KEY VERSE: “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.” 2 Peter 1:20.
The voice of Bible commentators who favour the use of Jewellery is loud. This serves as a strong support and calms the conscience of those that use jewelry. Let us have this at the back of our mind; however knowledgeable and inspired a preacher or a Bible commentator is, his commentary on every portion of scripture must be judged to see whether he speaks the mind of God on that portion of scripture or his own mind. This will help the readers not to build their faith on error. Confidence in any pastor or Bible commentator does not save. Only the word of God saves.
The majority of Christians use jewelry in their dressing. Ministers of the gospel of high ranks and anointing, male, and female, use rings and other items of jewelry freely. Only a few Christians abstain from jewelry. Unfortunately, some do so, not from scriptural conviction, but in compliance with the tradition of their assembly; with time such often return to the use of jewelry.
“Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment.” (Exodus 23:2.)
It has been clearly set forth here that many of the founding fathers of many churches preached against jewelry, but for one reason or the other, the successors could not uphold the Scriptural conviction of their predecessors in this issue. It is very important that the Christian church goes back to the old landmark of their forefathers.  Doing this will require those who are convinced to teach and persuade others in the congregation to obey God and make heaven.

Thought for the day:  Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil

Song for the day: How excellent is your name, O Lord

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 7-9; John 13:1-17

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...
