The Father's House - The Place Of Our Eternal Inheritance (1).

The Father's House - The Place Of Our Eternal Inheritance (1). When a baby is given birth to in a hospital, after being nursed for days, the baby is finally taken(brought)home by the parents - We are begotten again of God as sons, to be finally taken/brought home to the Father's house - 1st Peter 1:3-5 "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." *The salvation ready to be revealed in the last time, in essence, is to be finally brought home into our inheritance and place as sons in the Father's house. At new birth God sends the Spirit of his son into our hearts/we receive the Spirit of adoption whereby we cry "Abba...

Ultimate Things In Bible Prophecy...An Introduction.

To a great extent, men love prophecy and love to be prophesied to. They love to hear someone tell them what will happen in the future & what the future holds for them; yet the very poor attitude of men even christians, to prophetic scriptures of truth which clearly show what the future holds, and the negligence of the Spirit of truth(the HolySpirit), whom Jesus said will show us things to come, exposes a great deal of what a very complex & confused creature man has become upon the earth. - John 16:13 & Revelation 1:1-3. What does man really want? Today even in christendom & in the name of Christ, man deliberately ignores the truth of scripture while vigorously & energetically pursuing lies that suit his vain religious fancy; forsaking the fountain of living waters & hewing for himself cisterns that cannot hold water. - Jeremiah 2:13. How in the name of christianity & many so called prophetic christian programs, are the ultimate things in bible prophecy, conc...

The Making/Constitution Of The Enemies Of The Cross Of Christ (Part 3)

  In our last article of the series, we were able to scripturally identify who the enemies of the cross of Christ are, based on their characteristics as listed in Philippians 3:18-19.  They are surprisingly, people who work and walk in the field of christendom/christian profession and not the unbelieving world. The inspired apostle acknowledges them as workers but evil workers/workmen and also warns the saints in Philippi about their walk saying "f or many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping". We are being led of the Spirit of God in the scriptures of truth to consider another noteworthy thing concerning these enemies of the cross of Christ, which is👇🏼 The Enemies Of The Cross Of Christ Are Contrary To The Altar & Ministration Of The New Testament. According to scripture the altar we have in the new testament, is the cross of Christ, where the once and for all sacrifice of Christ was made to put an end to sin; an altar that wholly sep...

The Making Of Earthly Minded Enemies Of The Cross Of Christ Who Are Contrary To The Heavenly Calling, Inheritance, Destiny & Hope Of The Church. (Part 2)

Image
 Enemies Of The Cross Of Christ.  In Philippians 3:18-19 scripture speaks of the enemies of the cross of Christ.  Now, this is a very subtle spiritual status & condition because scripture in revealing this condition, does not classify it as 'enmity against Christ' but against 'the cross of Christ'.  They are not people estranged to the christian profession, faith & walk; the apostle even acknowledges their walk therein; they are in the field of christian profession and walk so closely holding unto what approximates to truth such that those on the path of truth are warned to beware of them.  Scripture goes on to expose that their walk is not in the steps of the cross.  It is a walk that so resembles and approximates to the true walk of the christian that it takes the HolySpirit to reveal/expose it; the apostle as inspired by the HolySpirit thus reveals the contrast & weeps knowing that they walk in steps that eventually lead to destruction/damnat...

The Making Of Earthly Minded Enemies Of The Cross Of Christ Who Are Contrary To The Heavenly Calling, Inheritance, Destiny & Hope Of The Church. (Part 1)

Some say the church is not going to heaven citing Psalm 115:16..."the earth has God given to the sons of men"; Others vaguely say going to heaven is not the goal while some presumptuously say the church will go to heaven but will only spend 7 years and come back to eternally dwell on earth.  The fact there is so much confusion gathered around the eternal destiny of the church, her heavenly calling/priesthood & the heavenly sanctuary where Christ as a forerunner has gone in for her, is enough evidence that this truth is most vehemently being fought against by satan. The enemy's target in fighting against this truth, is to turn the church into an earthly institution/organisation; exchange her heavenly inheritance for an earthly, turn her heavenly citizenship into an earthly citizenship & constitute church saints earthly minded people who are ill-disposed or contrary to the cross of Christ and the separation from the world which it brings. Scripture in 1st Peter ch...

The Truth Of Eternal Salvation & The Falsehood Of OSAS.

The Truth Of Eternal Salvation & The Falsehood Of OSAS. The scriptural doctrine of eternal salvation is often misconstrued for what some call 'OSAS' (Once Saved Always Saved), which is a false and unscriptural doctrine. A very thin line exists between the two & it's a very subtle one; and it lies in the difference between trusting in salvation as a thing in itself received by the saved(a gift which cannot be lost), and trusting in the saviour himself as the author of eternal salvation. Eternal salvation is not an end reached in the believer, but an end realised & perfected in Christ for the believer, thus 1st Timothy 4:10 says "Christ is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe" & Hebrews 5:9 says "being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him". In 1st Timothy 1:1 we see that Jesus Christ is our hope(the hope of them that believe), and according to 1st Thessalonians 5:8 & P...

Who Owns The Church?

Image
  Who Owns The Church?  The severity of the judgment coming to the church in these last times will be chiefly along the lines of the question of the ownership of the church...Who Owns The Church?  In the name of the Lord Jesus, on behalf of the HolyGhost sent down and on behalf of God who bought the church with the blood of his own, who owns the church?  This is a question every minister or preacher calling on the name of Jesus & running what is called "church" or assembly today upon the earth, will have to answer in these last times.  Sadly there are many doing ministry today, preaching & praying in the name of Jesus, but they are far from walking in the consciousness & reality of the ownership & lordship of Jesus over his church/people.  Note: The church/assembly is the church of God which he bought with the blood of his own & not your church. 👇🏼 "Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, wherein the Holy Spirit has se...

When An Open Door Is Nothing But A Trap & A Snare To The Soul.

Image
A Testimony Of How I Shut The Door On A Deal Of About $4m. Last August(1st August, 2021) i gave a  testimony of how God delivered me in 2019 from having anything to do with Hushpuppy, little did i know that exactly a year after that testimony, a bigger temptation was going to come. Indeed it came like a big open door, as on the 31st of July this year i got a call from someone who had viewed my business page on a certain website. His call opened a series of online & offline discussions & meetings with some foreign investor he linked me to. After two weeks of discussions & background checks, the foreign investor called to say he's confident to work with me. I'll try to make the story as succinct as possible. I had several meetings and site inspections with top realtors on ground, and on the third week, the foreign investor's representative travelled down to inspect the proposed project sites. However, after an entire month of discussions with this foreign in...

The Subtlely Of A Spiritual Fall (Part 2).

The Subtlely Of A Spiritual Fall  ( Part 2).   It is indeed amazing to see that in Ephesus where the apostle Paul says he had delivered the whole counsel of God, the church/assembly of God's people there had fallen, having left their first love. 👇🏼 Acts 20:17, 26-27 But from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he called over  to him  the elders of the assembly. Wherefore I witness to you this day, that I am clean from the blood of all, for I have not shrunk from announcing to you all the whole counsel of God. Revelation 2:1 & 5 Unto the messenger of the assembly, in Ephesus, write:––These things, saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, he that walketh in the midst of the seven lamps of gold....Remember, therefore, whence thou hast fallen, and repent, and do the first works; otherwise, I come unto thee, and will remove thy lamp out of its place, except thou repent. In the Lord's revelation and presentation of himself to Ephesus, the fullness...

The Subtlely Of A Spiritual Fall (Part 1).

Spiritual fall could be so subtle that it can become the state of a believer for years, without being detected or discerned.  It takes revelation in the presence of the Lord to expose this very subtle and sorry spiritual state as we see in the book of Revelation 2:1-5, in the Lord's letter to the assembly in Ephesus. Ephesus was fervent in spirit & zealous in good works; they had great spiritual virtues like patience/endurance, they had spiritual strength and stamina such that the Lord commended them for having laboured and borne for his name's sake, without fainting or growing weary; yet spiritually they had fallen. There was just one thing they lacked and that one thing in effect is everything, that one thing is like the tap root that bore the fruits the Lord had commended them for, thus if disconnected or cut off from, everyother thing was going to wane & die with time. That one thing is that they had left their first love; they had departed from the place of havi...

Heirship Of All Things In The Name Of Jesus.

All Things At The Command Of The Name Jesus. The name of Jesus is a name that goes with the inheritance of all things. In Hebrews 1:2, scripture says that in t hese last days, God has spoken to us in the person of his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; then goes on in verse 4 to say that the Son has been made so much better than the angels, as he has by reason of his heirship of all things, inherited a more excellent name than they. Note: These lines of scripture speak of the humanity of Christ who 1st Corinthians 15:47 calls "the second man". God appointed him heir of all things as a man; having taken up humanity for the suffering of death on the cross and being raised from the dead as the firstbegotten from the dead and head of a new creation/race of men. In touching his divinity, he has always been...the I AM(the self existent and ever existent/abiding one) & cannot be appointed to become something more or attain a high...

True Holiness & Righteousness Is Occupation With Christ.

  As early as in old testament prophecy, holiness was clearly defined in it's true character and essence as 'Unto the Lord' - "Holiness Unto The Lord" Zechariah 14:20-21 & Jeremiah 2:3. True righteousness and holiness is not unto ourselves or unto men as seeking the approval of men, but unto the Lord and thus lies in occupation with the Lord. When we teach righteousness, sanctification & holiness as themes, things or virtues in themselves which we're to set out or strive to attain, we're already programmed for religious self occupation and that's defeat even before a fall. We are not called to be holy or righteous, neither are we called to fellowship with our self efforts to be holy or righteous, we are rather called to fellowship with the Son of God who is our sanctification and rightousness. When God in the scripture of truth says: "Be holy for i am holy"(1 Peter 1:16) it is not a call to holiness as a theme or thing in itself, i...

The Appearing Of Jesus Christ(salvation ready to be revealed in the last time) Part 2.

Still on t he issue of the significance of the revelation/appearing of Jesus Christ to the church, Hebrews 9:28 clearly states that his appearing again unto those who look for him, is unto salvation. "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." This is of course the salvation ready to be revealed in the last time which goes with the revelation/appearing of the Lord Jesus according to 1st Peter 1:5 & 13 👇🏼 5  Who are kept guarded by  the  power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in  the  last time. 13  Wherefore, having girded up the loins of your mind,  be  sober and  hope with perfect stedfastness in the grace  which will be  brought to you at  the  revelation of Jesus Christ. Verse 9 calls it the salvation of our soul which is the end, conclusion or consummation of our faith.👇🏼 9  R...

The Appearing Of Jesus Christ(salvation ready to be revealed in the last time).

1st Peter 1:3-5 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead, to an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance, reserved in the heavens for you, who are kept guarded by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. *Mark "Inheritance reserved in the heavens for you", and "salvation ready to be revealed in the last time."  Now let's read verse 6 to 7  "Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the proving of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ".  Here in verses 6 & 7 scripture speaks of the test/proving of our faith; how it is much more precious to ...

Your Pastor Is The Jesus You See.

 Your Pastor Is The Jesus You See.  This is one of the favourite captivating lines & chain of words used by vain talkers/preachers to seduce & bind men to themselves.  They will tell you that they represent God; they represent Christ to the church. That in his absence they are the Christ you see. None of the apostles preached such a crap.  Peter writing to the overseers and elders of the church on spiritual leadership, speaks of Christ as the Chief shepherd, and he himself as nothing but an elder also. - 1st Peter 5:1-5. He never said anything like representing the Chief Shepherd to the elders or being a kind of a general overseer who has general oversight of both the overseers & the flock/church at large; neither did he say anything like the elders representing or being a kind of Chief Shepherd to the flock.  There is only one Chief Shepherd and no elder is to usurp his place or act in His stead as though representing Him to His people.  Echoes...
