Who Is A Christian by iruoghene7(m): 12:55pm On Oct 25, 2020
[center][/center]WHO IS A CHRISTIAN
God works in mysterious ways through the ages and that’s why denominations missed him and they won’t recognize it even when he vindicates his word for their day in their very presence.
God esteems his word higher than his name as the scriptures saith, and his will for every age in his promised word that comes via his servants is often missed by many because of denominationalism, theology and seminaries who make out creeds from that word of the age.
Unfortunately, the term “Christian or Believer” has virtually lost its meaning in or world today, so it’s imperative we remind ourselves and if we don’t know who a Christian is.
A Christian is one who genuinely believes from his heart and his works proves it and is seen by all. He or she is one who has been baptized by the holyspirit as saith the scripture {1cor.12:13: For by one are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one spirit.}

A believer is one who believes in the supernatural power of God to do exploits as saith {mark 16:17-18: And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall the cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hand on the sick and they shall recover}.

A Christian is one who accepts the unfailing, unadulterated promise of his day and goes on believing and acting on it irrespective of what denomination creeds and dogmas says. i.e. the word of God is his/her absolute. He allows God to vindicate his every promise in his/her day in his life. A believer has a clear godly principle he/she upholds and lives by in terms of dressing, conversations etc.

In conclusion brothers and sisters, Christianity is a personal race, only you would stand before your maker and nobody else but you to account. Why not seek God in his perfect law of liberty? Why feeding on some dead ecclesiastical carcass of some bygone age like the hawk when you can eat the ever fresh manner of Gods unfailing words of promise like the eagle does? Why feeding on vain philosophy, enticing words of men gotten from some theology which looks true but not the truth. Some cooked up traditions of men who have made the word of God of none effect and would deceive the very elect if it were possible.
I pray God help us to make the right decision and receive him, the Lord Jesus Christ, the same holyspirit into our heart as we’ve heard his knock on our heart today and not just his gift alone but his very person the giver. If we have the gift and not the giver it’s no good.
God bless you as we take heed. For scriptural discussions and questions and beneficial discussions chat me up on WhatsApp on 08120841446, or text me on 09067173049.
