QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON HOLY COMMUNION

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

TOPIC: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON HOLY COMMUNION

TEXT: 1 Corinthians 10:16  

FRIDAY OCTOBER 13RD

Key verse: Luke 24:47: “And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His Name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.” 
Question: Some churches take communion every now and then, causing people to go there because they believe that since man is prone to sin and temptation, by taking part in it, his sins may be cleansed. Now what are the pastors who are bestowed with the responsibility of uniting the church going to do? 
Answer: The idea that taking the Holy Communion cleanses from sin is erroneous because the forgiveness and cleansing of sins means you are no more committing sin. If your sins are forgiven it means that sin has been removed. The record of sin on you has been canceled and you have received power to sin no more. The fear of God will come into you and you won’t do it again. Our key verse says that repentance and remission of sin should be preached in His name among all nations. Not that somebody will confess today and go back to the same thing tomorrow. No. He that is born of God does not sin for His seed is in Him; he cannot sin because he is born of God. As a believer, if you go into error, come back to God and ask for forgiveness. He will forgive you and give you the power not to sin no more but if you keep sinning then you are not born again. The Holy Communion does not provide forgiveness of sin; it is an ordinance to remind us of the death, resurrection, and return of Jesus Christ. The emblems remind us of the shed blood and body of Christ. 
Whoever partakes unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body hence many are dead and sick among you because you eat it in your sin. It is not something you eat for forgiveness or holiness. No! It makes you remember the Lord’s death until he comes. So, as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you show the Lord’s death until He comes as often as possible. We observe Holy Communion during conferences.  Churches can choose the period they want to take it. well, wisdom will be called into that because when it becomes too frequent, it will be communized. 

Thought for the day: Taking the Holy Communion does not cleanse from sin 

Song for the day: The fountain of life is flowing everywhere…

Bible reading for the day: - Isaiah 50-52; 1 Thessalonians 1

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...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
