A BELIEVER IS IN CHRIST FOREVER

Image
A BELIEVER IS IN CHRIST FOREVER The journey of the New Creature starts from being in Christ and continues with being in Christ and ends with being in Christ.    2CO 5:17 THEREFORE IF ANY MAN BE IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW This is where it ALL begin. A new Creature can be in Christ ONLY. Outside Christ there is nothing like New Creature. So coming into Christ is a relationship of love designed by God on His terms of loving man unconditionally with the hope of becoming one with those who believe in Christ in Christ.  This means that it is a relationship that cannot be without Christ. Christ being the Alpha and Omega means that he has been before all things and will be after all things. JHON 1:  3 ALL THINGS WERE MADE BY HIM; AND WITHOUT HIM WAS NOT ANY THING MADE THAT WAS MADE. This verse means that Christ had been before creation but that does not mean that all creation is in Christ. It is ONLY those w...

THE LIFE OF LIGHT VS THE LIFE OF LIGHT

Image
 John 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. I like John chapter 1 because it gave us the understanding of Christ not from the genealogical perspective but from the word that had been before the beginning began confirming that the world was framed by the word of God. ...unlike Mathew, Mark and Luke. 👉John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 👉John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Because of this reality Christ boldly told the Jews about his existence before Abraham just to take their minds away from being present with them to understanding the process of His phys...

OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS IS BY FAITH

Romans 10: 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth Text: ( Roman 10: 1- 10) Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in th...

HE RAISED US WITH CHRIST

Image
  COL 3:1 ¶ IF YE THEN BE RISEN WITH CHRIST, SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, WHERE CHRIST SITTETH ON THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD. EPH 2:    6 AND HATH RAISED US UP TOGETHER, AND MADE US SIT TOGETHER IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS To rise with Christ is a reality that comes to the life of someone who accepts Jesus Christ by faith to receive eternal life. You cannot be raised with Christ in unbelief. Unbelief keeps men in the grave of ignorance. Ignorance is a big grave. No one is destroyed because of sin or by Satan. Our problem is our ignorance.    Christ came to save the whole world from sin but many are still buried in the grave of ignorance through unbelief. The life of a believer begins by faith in Christ. This is the reason believers should know their stand in Christ. The knowledge of Christ keeps us ahead of every doubt and fear that the world brings through natural occurrences and challenges. An unbeliever cannot say he has risen with Christ because he i...
