Eternal Value Of A Human Soul by ochibuogwu5: 11:45am On Mar 19, 2019
The *eternal value* of *any human soul* is *priceless* in the eyes of *God* thus
"In the same way, I tell you, there will be *more/great joy* in *heaven* over *one sinner* who *repents* than over *ninety-nine respectable people* who *do not need* to *repent*." (Luke 15:7)
My/Your repentance from sin/unbelief is far-more important to God than those who are still *steadfast* in faith, this is not to *discourage* those who are steadfast rather bearing in mind that it is the Holy Spirit that *lives out this steadfastness in a believer* they should appreciate his steadfast works in their lives and continually remain submissive to his leading.

Child of God, no matter what sin/lifestyle you have found yourself in the past or presently Jesus Christ paid the *price* for that *sin* on Calvary and he wants *me/you* to *repent/reject/renounce them and confess *all of them to him* so that he will release his *precious blood to cleanse us and make us whole again* yes for any/every time we confess our sins/unbelief/weakness to Jesus Christ, He is *always ready to wash and make us whole again* and even restore to a higher level in glory before that particular backsliding thus "the latter glory shall be better than the former glory" (Haggai 2:9).

This forgiveness and restoration does not encourage *complacency/impunity* in sinful living because the Holy Spirit takes his position inside such a person who has repented and received forgiveness *both* to *will* and *do his good pleasures* till the end (Phil. 2:13, 1 Cor.1:8-9).

Holy Spirit give us sincere passion for human souls and reverence for their eternal value as we meet people continually in our daily endeavors in Jesus Name. Amen.

The dead know better *THE ETERNAL VALUE OF RECEIVING THE GOSPEL INSTANTLY*

DO NOT WAIT AFTER YOU DIE TO ACCEPT THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.

"So he said, 'Father, I beg you then to send Lazarus to my father's house, since I have five brothers to give them warning so that they do not come to this place of torment too.'"(Lk.16:27-28).

Today {21st March, 2019} is the ONLY AND SUITABLE TIME to *repent* and BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST.

LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCEPT US AS YOUR OWN INHERITANCE BY THE PRICE OF YOUR REDEMPTIVE BLOOD. AMEN.

The woman said to Him{JESUS CHRIST}, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will not get thirsty nor [have to continually] come all the way here to draw.” {John 4:15 amp}

Are you *thirsty* of this *type of eternal water* in your current situation?
Am I *thirsty* of this *eternal spring of living water* in my current challenges?

Let us approach the THRONE OF GRACE AS WE ARE....
Jesus Christ is ALWAYS READY TO RECEIVE US no matter how dirty, lonely, dejected, depressed, sinful, confused, forlorn, abandoned e.t.c. we appear before the world or in our own eyes...

Jesus Christ Our Lord, eternal fountain of living water we are here prompted by your Holy Spirit grace as we seek your mercy with our hearts/mouth wide open that you may fill us with YOUR BEING. AMEN.

13 Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again. 14 But whoever drinks the water that I give him will never be thirsty again. But the water that I give him will become in him a spring of water [satisfying his thirst for God] welling up [continually flowing, bubbling within him] to eternal life.”{John 4:13-14 amp}

Abbah Father, quench our thirst for sin, emotional enticements, allurements/attractions of this world, challenges of this world and hunger of our human flesh{fame/power/ambition/targets/competitions} with your spring of living water through your indwelling Holy Spirit activeness every tick of time we spend on this earth in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.

Sympathy is the way to self-knowledge.
Our own penitence/repentance deepens as we find out our brother's sins.
Every brother's fall reminds us of our need of vigilance.
Nothing deepens our love for Christ like the deeper knowledge of His grace, which we gain as we see other souls saved by Him.
{Fulton Sheen}
"My brothers and sisters, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and is brought back by another, you should know that whoever brings back a sinner from wandering will save the sinner's soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins" (James 5:19-20 NRSVCE)

Sometimes, we choose to be dominated by our own *choice* over the will of the Holy Spirit promptings inside us and this leads us into sin however God uses such moments to take us out of our pride and awakens inside us a sympathetic love for others when we find them drawn down by such sin
thus
"But if you had known this means, 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice', you would not have condemned the guiltless" {Matthew 12:7 NRSVCE}

Our *hope* inside Jesus Christ can never *disappoint us* because the *love of God* has been *poured* into our spirit through His *Holy Spirit* whom He has given us to dwell inside our spirit *forever*" {Romans 5:5}
Re: Eternal Value Of A Human Soul by ochibuogwu5: 8:30pm On Mar 21, 2019
If you think/assume/presume *hell-fire* does not exist
or
you think its torment does not last *forever*
think about these:
Jesus Christ confirmed the existence of hell {Luke 16:19-31} just look here
"He said, then father, I beg you to send him to my father's house--for I have five brothers--that he may warn them so that they will not also come into *this place of torment*"
{Luke 16:28}
and for your information this tormenting fire burns continuously forever
thus
"And if your eye causes you to stumble, tear it out; it is better for you to enter the *kingdom of God{Heaven}* with one eye than to have two eyes and to be thrown into *hell* where *their worm never dies* and *the fire is NEVER QUENCHED*, for everyone(inside hell) will be *salted with fire*" {Mark 9:47-49},

"...Those who worship the beast and its image and receive a mark on their foreheads or in their hands, they will also drink the wine of God's wrath, poured unmixed into the cup of his anger and they will be *
tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of *THEIR TORMENT GOES UP FOREVER AND EVER. there is no rest DAY OR NIGHT for those who worship the beast and its image and for anyone who receives the mark of its name*" {Revelation 14:9-11},

"Whoever believes in the Son has *eternal life*; whoever *disobeys the Son* will not see *life(eternal)*, but *MUST ENDURE GOD'S WRATH*" {John 3:36}.

What are you/I doing with the word of life{the gospel of Jesus Christ} implanted by the Holy Spirit inside you to save souls for the eternal kingdom of Christ Jesus?
Are we not seeing that there is *deep seated war* against the name of *Christ Jesus* in your/my country?
Are we not seeing the increasing rate of occultism/marine spirits amongs our children especially those in the primary/secondary schools not to mention tertiary institutions/universities?
Are we not seeing the *ease* at which human beings *kill* each other at the slightest provocations/abortions/ethnic-cleansing/political-ambitions in our society that *formally* exalted the sacredness of human life above *every other aspirations in life*?
Are we not perturbed by the alarming rate of sexual immorality{homosexuality, lesbianism, pedophile, rape, incest, abortions, fornication, adultery, masturbation, pornography, nudity of pictures/videos/dressings/fashion, adultery, pornography, lust e.t.c} in our society today ranging from children-adolescents-parents with *impunity*?
Are we not tired of *fraudsters* under the guise of *preachers/seers/prophets*?
Are we not concerned about lack of love in our families, broken-homes, people wishing another person dead via social-media write-ups and altercations?
Are we not moved by incessant quest for get rich quick attitudes/ideologies without *tangible righteous labors/engagements* {Occultism, ritual-killings, slavery, human/child trafficking, sell/use of under-wears for charms, betting/gambling, yahoo-yahoo, ponzi-schemes, fraud/419, one-chance, armed-robbery/assassin, prostitution inside/outside the country, runs girls/boys, sugar daddy/mummy, travel out of the country by hook or crook, sell your kidney inside/outside the country to make money/wealth e.t.c} in our society currently from children to parents?

Are we not aware that it was only the word of life inside Jonah was the *only way* God designed to save *the whole nation of Nineveh*?
The message of Christ Jesus inside you/I could be the *ONLY MESSAGE* that a nation, school, family, office, neighborhood, Church, fellowship, Pastor, Priest, individual, classmates, office-colleague, friend, ministry-mate, vocation-mate, spouse, parents, children, siblings, town, village, market-line, co-passengers, business-partner e.t.c
IS EAGERLY WAITING FOR, TO RECEIVE SALVATION IN CHRIST JESUS OR ELSE THEY PERISH ETERNALLY!

Do not delay the *message/utterance* before you get news of death about that person/group.
AWAKE WITH THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST; THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ENGAGING YOU/ME RIGHT NOW.
the GOSPEL is the ONLY POWER OF DELIVERANCE/SALVATION for *any human being* hence *share* it with *every human being* you encounter with the disposition to teach, love and propose *the real life of mankind* not with coercion/insults/intimidation/manipulations.

Inside keke-marwa, Danfo-bus, taxi, molue, private-lift, streets, market-line, office-morning-prayer e.t.c share the gospel, do not look at the faces of the people 1st to ascertain whether they are *welcoming*, do not be distracted by *people's seeming important discussions/conversations*, do not be distracted by the driver/conductor's bad-manners/shouting, do not be distracted by the *hiss or insults from a co-passenger*, if you are privileged move from house to house, shop to shop, one-on-one evangelism e.t.c just declare *PRAISE THE LORD {JESUS CHRIST}* and *begin with Short prayers, if possible a hymn that arouses human consciousness about our need of a Savior*, go ahead and share the gospel.

Bear in mind, so many people will resist you, out-rightly send you away HOWEVER BEAR IN MIND THAT THEIR IS ATLEAST ONE SOUL INCLUDING YOUR OWN SOUL that THE HOLY SPIRIT needs to TOUCH at each point He *arouses our mind* to share THE GOSPEL.
"We *must* work the works of Him who sent me while it is *day*; *night* is coming when no one can work" {John 9:4}

"But sexual immorality and all [moral] impurity [indecent, offensive behavior] or greed must not even be hinted at among you, as is proper among saints [for as believers our way of life, whether in public or in private, reflects the validity of our faith]. 4 Let there be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse [obscene or vulgar] joking, because such things are not appropriate [for believers]; but instead speak of your thankfulness [to God]. 5 For be sure of this: no immoral, impure, or greedy person—for that one is [in effect] an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God [for such a person places a higher value on something other than God]" {Ephesians 5:3-5 amp}

Now these things happened to them as an example and warning [to us]; they were written for our instruction [to admonish and equip us], upon whom the ends of the ages have come. 12 Therefore let the one who thinks he stands firm [immune to temptation, being overconfident and self-righteous], take care that he does not fall [into sin and condemnation].

Re: Eternal Value Of A Human Soul by ochibuogwu5: 11:52am On Mar 25, 2019
Now these things [the warnings and admonitions] took place as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they did. 7 Do not be worshipers of handmade gods, as some of them were; just as it is written [in Scripture], “The people sat down to eat and drink [after sacrificing to the golden calf at Horeb], and stood up to play [indulging in immoral activities].” 8 We must not indulge in [nor tolerate] sexual immorality, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand [suddenly] fell [dead] in a single day! 9 We must not tempt the Lord [that is, test His patience, question His purpose or exploit His goodness], as some of them did—and they were killed by serpents. {1 Corinthians 10:6-9 amp}
