It's all about character..

Christianity is all about character. Some become Christian because they know that if they just stick with God, there will be blessings. True. But Christianity is not about that. Christianity is about character. I know a Christian who lost her job and nearly lost her mind too! That's what happens when your Christianity is attached to the blessings. Christianity is not about the good life either. That's part of it but that's not what Christianity is about. For everyone shall be salted with fire. And God will let lose the Tempter to test everyone that is on the earth.

We know that man was created in the likeness of God. And that means 100% like God. Not just 50%, say our face looks like Him but our character is of someone else. I believe that God made man to be really like Him. That we be all that God is. That's why He says, do not worry. Because God's resources are infinite! There are more important things that we must give attention to than our bodily necessities. And God knows that we have need of them. Man does not live by bread alone but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. If we miss a meal, it won't kill us. But if we miss out on the word of God, we miss out big time! And your missing a meal could be because you missed out on the Word of God.

It's all about building our character. To really be like God. And He's already done it. He has made us new from the inside. If anyone be in Christ, he is a new creature! All that God wants us to be is already in the inside of us. He has recreated us. He has planted His seed in us. And all that we really need to do is let that new man in the inside of us become manifest. That we no longer let the outward man take control but let the inner man dominate the faculties of this physical body. God is building our character. And to do that, there will be trouble for sure. But let the inner man handle every situation and you will win every single time.

How do you know?

I asked: How do you know that when you die you will be with Jesus? Somebody said: 1Jn 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. And WHAT are these who believe... 1Jn 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God... And what shall become of those who believe... Joh 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. I said: Yes, sure the Bible tells us that, and our Pastors tell us that. But how are you so sure that indeed you have eternal life? And again he says: Rom 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED. This is the glorious future of those whom the Father foreknew. Again I s...

Between God and the Politician

Often we hear during election time of Politicians platform of government and promised infrastructure projects should they be elected in office. But all those talk and speeches just go back to the filing cabinets once elections are through and kept hid until the next elections. So between God and the Politician is a great chasm, a great divide between truth and lies because Man's words are often empty, but the Word of God is never empty. Not because Man wants to lie but because he is not capable of keeping his every word. God on the other hand is able. God said: But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings, and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts (Mal 4:2-3). Those words are not empty. Surely they come to pass to them which receives them. And God has declared it that ...

Working Out Salvation

Php 2:12-15 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. (13) For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. (14) Do all things without murmurings and disputings: (15) That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;  Just to remove the misconstruction here, ‘work out’ is not synonymous with ‘work for’. The former means to develop while the latter means to earn. Salvation is not earned. It is freely given of God. He made it that way so that no one can boast. But salvation needs to be developed so that we may reap its fruits. Christians struggle with their faith because after that they have received the Lord Jesus they still face the same problems, the same struggles, the same circumstances even long after that they be...
