DISTINGUISHING FEATURES

  Readers, today I want to talk a little bit about history as I know it from reading the Bible. What I don’t know I will ask the Holy Spirit to help me as I am writing this article or add in my future articles. I am going to start with the Book of Exodus 20:1-17, or from Deuteronomy 5:4-21. They are identical. And I invite you to open your Bible too. The Lord said, "I [am] the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.” Exodus 20:2. Who were these people whom God had freed from slavery? They were the Jews, descendants of Abraham. And why did God give them the Ten Commandments? Because these are the important distinguishing differences between God’s people and the rest of the world. God’s people obeyed the Ten Commandments, whereas the rest of the world ignores. There are minor differences like the practice of circumcision which the Muslims practice in their countries. The primary distinguishing characteristics between God’s people an...

WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GOING?

  Good morning readers. How are you doing? You look good in your pink dress. And who is that handsome looking man next to you? Your boyfriend? Where are you going so early, to church? Yes? Hmmm, that’s good. Going to church regularly is a good habit. My dad when he was alive was a Christian evangelist. He was a businessman during the day, and an evangelist in the evening. He converted a number of his employees to become Christians. He knew what he was doing. And he knows where he is going. I guess I inherited a little bit of his God given talents. And I am glad that I can continue to do His business after my dad is gone. Readers, do we know where we are going? Life is short. And while I am living this short life, I am preparing for an eternal life. And I want my readers to do the same, prepare for an eternal life. But that is not easy. Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. ...

FAITH IN JESUS

  Readers, do you know that if you have faith in Jesus but do not do the will of Jesus’ Father in heaven you will all go to hell? We shall all go to hell if we don't do the will of God the Father. How do I know that? Did your preacher, pastor, or priest not tell you that? Jesus said in Matthew 7:21-23, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. "Many will say to Me on that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, ` I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness! '” Why did they not tell you that? Why? Ask your pastor. Ask your priest. The function of a preacher, pastor, or priest is not to collect offerings only, but to help us meet our Creator in heaven, God the Father, and to meet our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Do you understand what I am sayi...

WHY DID JESUS COME?

    What did Jesus say why He came to earth? In Matthew 5:17-18 Jesus said, "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill . "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one title will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.” This, what He said, tells us of the unchanging nature of God’s words. God’s law is eternal until all is fulfilled, until the end of the world, until Jesus returns for the second time. Jesus came to fulfill the prophecy, and not to change the law. Jesus did not make the law. God the Father made the Sabbath law. Any changes made to the law, therefore, before Jesus returns  comes from Satan, and not from God. Satan, using humans, made the changes to the law. Jesus said "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one title will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.” When is all fulfilled? No, not when Jesus d...

WHO IS YOUR BOSS?

  Readers, I want to ask you all this very important question. And I want you all to answer me honestly without any sign of temper tantrums. Do you agree? Thank you.  God the Father said in Deuteronomy 5:7-10, `You shall have no other gods before Me. `You shall not make for yourself a carved image any likeness [of anything] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, [am] a jealous God , visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth [generations] of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep my commandments ” . And Jesus said, "For I have not spoken on My own [authority]; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. "And I know that His command is everlasting life . Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I ...

ONE COMMANDMENT AT A TIME (9)

  God said, "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that [is] your neighbor's." Now all the people witnessed the thunderings, the lightning flashes, the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw [it], they trembled and stood far off. Then they said to Moses, "You speak with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die." Exodus 20:17-19. Readers, we have come to the end of the Ten Commandments. They are all important Commandments. When I was young, I had violated almost all of them. I am ashamed of what I have done, and I regret it. Now comes sharing time. I learned from my past mistakes.  I learned about generational curses from the people who have violated this law, "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his ...

THE WORK

The apostle Paul wrote, “ For by grace you have been saved through faith , and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works , lest anyone should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9. According to Paul faith saves us, and not because of our work or what we do. The apostle James disagreed with Paul. James said, “But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.” James 2:20,21,22,24. What is the “work" that Paul was talking about? Paul was referring to the work that is given in detail in the Ten Commandments, "knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the wo...
