EXPLANATION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: EXPLANATION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

TEXT: MARK 16:15-16.  
THURSDAY AUGUST 31st

Key verse: Ephesians 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Question: Please what are the principles of holiness?
Answer: To come to holiness, first tell the sinner to repent of his sins and give his life to Jesus Christ. Go to the sinners and preach the gospel, the good news of salvation in Christ to him. The kingdom of God is at hand; repent ye and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. Preach repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Then when the sinner believes in the Lord Jesus Christ he should be baptized according to the Word of God. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. He believes and has received Christ into His life. He is now born again. He is now a child of God.
Then, to the child of God, there is still a gospel to be preached to him. What is the gospel? He is now a child of God; he belongs to the church. He has begun part of the body of Christ having repented and believed in the Lord Jesus Christ. There is still a gospel for him; the gospel of Sanctification, inner cleansing, inner purity, and the purity of heart. The believer has become part of the church; Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it. For God so loved the world and gave Jesus for it on the cross, Christ now loved the church and gave himself for it. The death on the cross has dual purposes: To bring the sinner to salvation in Christ and to bring the believer to sanctification and heart purity. Believers need to hear this message, that your heart can be purified. When your clothes are dirty, you wash them with water and soap and rinse them. You carry it to another water to rinse it; at the first water-dirt comes out but there are still some lines, some remnants that the next water can cleanse out. At salvation much is done in your life, you are saved from sins, but then there are remnants which you still need sanctification to arrive at for perfect cleansing. 

Thought for the day: Peace, Purity, and Power are available for believers in Christ

Song for the day: Peace, purity, power; all mine in the Lord…

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 145-147; 1 Corinthians 11:1-15

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
