Consider four specific roles which Jesus Christ came to earth to fulfill.
He Came To Be The Light of the World ~ “Then Jesus cried out and said, ‘He who believes in Me, believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me. And he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness'” (John 12:44-47). He Came To Preach The Gospel ~ “But He [Jesus] said to them, ‘Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because for this purpose I have come forth.’ And He was preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and casting out demons” (Mark 1:38-39).

Man was created with a free will. This is evident in the garden of eden where Adam choose to disobey God (1 Timothy 2: 14).
We do have a free will to choose what we want to do. The Lord will always give us grace to follow and do what is right, once we decide that's what we want. Are you going through a rough time? Are you thinking, well, nobody else around me seems to be going through this, its only me? Why is it only me going through this?
We are grateful that God is never caught unawares. I read from a site recently something very encouraging. This was the summary of the statement: " if good parents plan ahead for their children, how much more God". Talk about exit plan, before the problem presented itself the Lord already made an exit route. You are coming out! by Sunday Oke
Entering into, layinghold of, persisting in A new and revitalised God consciousness. A righteousness consciousness A Christ in me the hope of Glory consciousness An overflowing peace consciousness An unspeakable joy consciousness A greater love consciousness What a great way to describe a person and a honour. Let’s examine a few things about this disciple.
This was the disciple that was lying on Jesus bosom at laying at Jesus boson at the last supper. John 13:23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. Bosom signifies ‘the front of the body between the arms’ (vines expository dictionary of old and new testament words) or a person’s breast or chest (oxford dictionary) For you to lay on a persons breast you must be close to them and very likely there will be a mutual likeness or love between you.

Many times, while reading my bible, I’ll have an “Aha” moment. It’s during those times I receive revelation about something that God is trying to tell me. Not long ago while reading the book of Psalms, I came across a couple verses that nearly took my breath away. I’m referring to Psalm 37: 32 – 33 which states in the Amplified version of the bible. Read full article from here: I’ve recently been studying New Testament financial giving i.e. tithes, offerings, free will offerings, first Fruits, etc. and I’ve kind of come to the conclusion that our primary motive for giving should be our love for God. God wants us to give cheerfully (2 Corinthians 9:7), He wants us to give hilariously and he wants us to give because we love Him and the people that the
money will be used to bless. God doesn’t need our finances; Bible says the cows on a thousand hills belong to him (Psalm 50:10), what would He ever need our money for. By Paul Ellis
I remember as a 10 year old boy watching in terror as the communion plate came closer and closer. Why was I afraid? Because there was unresolved sin in my life – I had argued with my sister before church! I knew that those who took communion in an unworthy manner risked condemnation, even death, for the Bible told me so: Have you ever heard ‘ give and you will get a hundredfold return? Well if you study scripture very carefully, this
is not what the bible is saying about the hundredfold return. So what does scripture say? Mark 10: 17 – 30 17And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? 18And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. 19Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother. |
