The Bible before now warns us of this times thus:
Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the LATTER TIMES some shall depart from the faith, GIVING HEED to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; SPEAKING LIES in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron. (1 Timothy 4:1,2).
No better time is the above scriptural verses fulfilled than in this our days. Therefore, I can confidently say to you that one of the MAIN reasons we see so many different kinds of CHRISTIANITY from that of the Bible days in the World today without Bible kind of results, is because:
1. MANY Christians consciously or unconsciously CHOOSES to LET the WORD of MEN dwell in them than the WORD of CHRIST. So sad, so bad!
To avoid being deceived, Apostle Paul counselled us thus:
Let the WORD of CHRIST dwell in you richly in ALL wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And WHATSOEVER you do in word or deed, DO ALL in the NAME of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him. (Colossians 3:16,17).
2. MANY Christians consciously or unconsciously CHOOSES not to be more NOBLE believers by NOT searching the scripture themselves daily to CONFIRM if what men are teaching or saying to them in Christ are truths before BELIEVING them. So sad, so bad!
Likewise, to avoid being deceived, the Bible says thus:
These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and SEARCHED the SCRIPTURE DAILY, whether those things were so. Therefore MANY of them BELIEVED; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few. (Acts 17:11;12).
Today, many Christians lives and situations are NOT CHANGING because the FAITH is based on Man's Wisdom and NOT in the Wisdom of God and Power of God. So sad, so bad!
In sincerity, Apostle humbly declared thus:
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came NOT with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined NOT to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And MY SPEECH and MY PREACHING was not with ENTICING WORDS of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your FAITH should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. (1 Corinthians 2:1-5).
I wish many ministers of the gospel today will read the above scriptural reference, repent and seek the Lord for their messages, so that their members will NOT be wasting their time and resources BELIEVING or putting their FAITH on their enticing words or wisdom, then seeing divine RESULTS in their lives and situations as expected. This is why so many genuine Christians are so discouraged today, but I am sent to ENCOURAGE you today that God is still faithful and able to meet all your needs in Christ, but we got to get it right as revealed in His Word. That is, our FAITH bamenased on His Wisdom (power) not on wisdom of men. True! Take note, take heed! (1 Thessalonians 5:24; Hebrews 4:16).
Truth to be told, it is unfortunate that many Christians of this generation have quickly forgotten that JESUS CHRIST is our ultimate ROLE MODEL we are instructed to ultimately LOOK UNTO because He alone is the Author and Finisher of our Faith. So sad, so bad!
The Bible reveals this to us thus:
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us LAY aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us RUN with patience the RACE that is SET before us, LOOKING unto JESUS the author aund finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. (Hebrews 12:1,2).
Now, lets LOOK at one of Jesus Christs sayings we have to always remaind ourselves and allow to dwell in each us daily in this World:
And seeing the multitudes, He went up into a mountain: and when he was set, His disciples came unto Him: And He opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
1. Blessed are the POOR in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we when we HUMBLE ourselves. That we will experience the workings of the Holy Spirit in and through us in this World. That is, we will enjoy GRACE. True! (James 4:6-10).
2. Blessed are they that MOURN: for they shall be comforted.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we when we go through challenging (trials and tests) periods in this World. That we will be comforted by the Holy Spirit. True! (John 14:16-20).
3. Blessed are the MEEK: for they shall inherit the earth.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we when we allow the Will of God to become our own will in this World, we will rule and reign in this World. True! (Romans 12:1,2; Matthew 6:9,10; Revelation 5:8-12).
4. Blessed are they which do HUNGER and THIRST after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we if we passionately and persistently seek for what pleases God, we will be filled with the Holy Spirit and also be satisfied in this World. True! (Matthew 6:33; Hebrews 1:9).
5. Blessed are the MERCIFUL: for they shall obtain mercy.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we if we show mercy to others, we too will be shown mercy by God and humans. True! (Mark 11:24-26; Matthew 7:12).
6. Blessed are the PURE in heart: for they shall see God.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we when we think no evil in our heart against anyone or do not let our mind be controlled by the ways and manners of the World, but rather by the Word of God, then we will see God in our life and situations in this World. (Philippians 4:8,9; Hebrews 12:14; Romans 12:1,2).
7. Blessed are the PEACEMAKERS: for they shall be called the children of God.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we if we are the one maintaining the peace, we shall be called Children of God by the people of the World. True! (Hebrews 12:14; Matthew 5:13-16; 1 Peter 2:9,10).
8. Blessed are they which are PERSECUTED for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we when men come against us for the Holy Spirit's sake working through us, we shall experience the Holy Spirit intervention and help. True! (Matthew 10:16-42).
9. Blessed are you, when men shall REVILE you, and PERSECUTE you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. (Matthew 5:1-12).
Jesus Christ is saying to you and I that BLESSED are we when men come against us for His sake with all manner of arguments, evil and falsehood, we should be so joyful and glad for we will receive great reward from God in Heaven. True! (Matthew 10:26-41).
Forthermore, JESUS CHRIST said to us thus:
You are the SALT of the Earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. YOU are the LIGHT of the World. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. LET your LIGHT so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. (Matthew 5:13-16; 1 Peter 2:9,10).
I am sent today to inform you to consciously and consistently LOOK for the Words of JESUS CHRIST in your Bible, which in most Bible are printed on red colour. That you should personally STUDY them and Let them dwell in you richly in all WISDOM far above any man's words and that your life and situations will never remain the same. True! Take note, take heed!
Always remember you have the DIVINE RIGHT to search the scripture to PROVE ALL THINGS if they are so and to HOLD ON to only those which are GOOD (scriptural or inspired by the Holy Spirit). Therefore, you have the divine permission to reject unscriptural teachings and practices that are not in line with scripture and to test every spirit behind anybody's teachings and practices in Christ. Yes, you have such divine right because it is only the teaching and practices inspired by the HOLY SPIRIT of Christ that is TRUE CHRISTIANITY teachings and practices in Christ in this World. True! Take note, take heed! (1 Thessalonians 5:21; 2 Timothy 3:16,17; 1 John 4:1-4).
God bless you.
