The Gospel Of Christ Must Go With Repentance 

Sunday June 2nd

Text: Acts 20: 17 - 21
Key verse: Acts 20:21 “Testifying both to the Jews and also to the Greeks, repentance towards God and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Now that you are immoral; still in a wrong marriage and committing all sorts of sins, you are a sinner. You are not born again. You are not a child of God for all these years because you commit sin without repentance. You have not shown godly sorrow and regret for what you have done. You have not turned away from fleshly pleasures of sin. You have not left that ungodly business but you profess to be in Christ. You have not left that immoral relationship despite all the dreams you say the Lord is giving you. Your sins are still upon your life because you have not repented. If you are a drunkard or smoker but attending church services regularly, you have not repented. There can be no forgiveness of sins since there is no genuine repentance. Forget about what the Roman Catholic priests are doing; deceiving ignorant people. There is no forgiveness without true repentance.
What do you say of the publican that was hitting his hand on his chest and asking God for mercy? This is the heart of a penitent sinner who is sorrowful but those that hide their sins have not repented. He that hideth his sin shall not prosper. You shall not have forgiveness because you are hiding your sin. Although an angel might have visited you; you may have visited heaven by dream but if you have not stopped sins in your life, you are not a Christian. The gospel of Christ must go with repentance. Go with it to the Moslems; they must repent. Go with it to the pagans; they must repent. Go with it to the harlot; she must repent. Go with it to the occultic people; they must repent. Go with it to the children and youths; they must repent. Go with it to adults; they must repent. Go with it to pastors, church workers and members; they must repent, before forgiveness will come into them. Ye are witnesses of these things. Are you still in your sin? Did you not repent before your sins were forgiven? Did you not determine for righteousness before God stamped it?  

Thought for the day: The gospel of Christ must go with repentance and righteousness

Song for the day: Give me that old time religion

Bible reading for the day: Job 25-30

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
