Christianity EtcTip For Success In Business & Career: DON’T COMPROMISE by FreshGreen(op): 7:04am On Dec 26, 2016
Tip For Success In Business & Career: DON’T COMPROMISE

In business or in career, there will be sometimes that without compromising, without telling lies, without giving bribe or falsifying information one cannot succeed, but such notion is a lie. With my little experience in business I have discovered that the more you refuse to compromise, the more you will experience God’s blessings beyond human power. Truly, sometimes it will seems as the end of the road if one refuses to compromise, it will seems the business will fail unless one compromise into sin, but if you trust God without compromise like the 3 Hebrews in Babylon, God will always make a better way. I’m laughing as I’m typing this; you know why I used the example of the 3 Hebrews in Babylon? Because that is exactly how it looks at some point in business or in career, it will look if you don’t tell little lie or compromise into sin, everything will get burned and fail, but if you determine not to compromise but rather let go of the business project, God will give you a better success.

Refusing to compromise into sin in business or career, no matter how little or costly will prove to God that you deserve the blessings of Abraham in your business and career, and you will be surprised how God will bless beyond those who compromised their faith. Do not be too smart in business or career that you will involve in any sinful activity, no matter how small, it will block the heaven of God’s blessing on your life.
Christianity EtcSucceeding In Business & Career Without Sin Or Stress by FreshGreen(op): 6:16am On Dec 26, 2016
SUCCEEDING IN BUSINESS & CAREER WITHOUT SIN OR STRESS

When my wife and I got married in April 2013, I was already in the full time evangelical ministry, and I told her she would not look for job, but that God would give us a business which would provide for our marriage and ministry. Three months later we started business with about N60,000, and the business was improving gradually couple with the work of the ministry.

Since then God has been blessing this small business to take care of the needs of our marriage and our ministry without. This type of our ministry is evangelical outreach which involves daily spending, and we have decided to run it free of charge without asking people for financial donation, offering, without selling any material that comes from the ministry – books, CDs, VCDs, etc. With the help of God through this small business, these visions are coming to reality.

This year 2016 has been wonderful for us with the help of God. In my country Nigeria, economy had been tough since after election last year – 2015, and our business was seriously affected, as we were ending the year 2015, we could only sustain a worker and 2 part-time workers, and we were expecting the worse in 2016. Our plan was to either get loan or sell 20% of the business to raise money to move forward, but God didn't lead us to either, so we continued little by little. Our country’s economy entered recession this year and many big companies were struggling and some even folded up. But as we are ending this year 2016, God has helped and sustained our business beyond our expectations. We now have 12 full time workers and 8 part-time workers. The business is still in small scale but with God’s mandate of a global company. So what are the secrets that have helped to reach where we are and that will help us to reach a global level? That is the message the Lord is leading me to share with you on how to succeed in business and career:

1, TRUST GOD 100%
Trusting God in your business or career does not mean believing Him for blessing or breakthrough alone, but trusting Him to start with little and to do it in His way even when it looks professionally stupid. If you want to succeed in business or in your professional career without sin or sorrow of Satan, you will need to trust God with all your heart, it means you will not rely on your wisdom or on human connection, and at the same time, you will not be afraid of little beginning, of giants in the same field or of those experienced and powerful competitors; you will not be afraid of storming weather, because in business or career, there will be some storming periods, but you must trust God not to run back and pack up to go and look for job. Trusting God will give you the courage to move ahead in a godly way into success.

2, DON’T COMPROMISE
In business or in career, there will be sometimes that seems without compromising, without telling lies, without giving bribe or falsifying information one cannot succeed, but such notion is a lie. With my little experience in business I have discovered that the more you refuse to compromise, the more you will experience God’s blessings beyond human power. Truly, sometimes it will look as the end of the road if one refuses to compromise, it will seems the business will fail unless one compromise into sin, but if you trust God without compromise like the 3 Hebrews in Babylon, God will always make a better way. I’m laughing as I’m typing this; you know why I used the example of the 3 Hebrews in Babylon? Because that is exactly how it looks at some point in business or in career, it will look if you don’t tell little lie or compromise into sin, everything will get burned and fail, but if you determine not to compromise but rather let go of the business project, God will give you a better success.

Refusing to compromise into sin in business or career, no matter how little or costly will prove to God that you deserve the blessings of Abraham in your business and career, and you will be surprised how God will bless you beyond those who compromised their faith. Do not be too smart in business or career that you will involve in any sinful activity, no matter how small, it will block the heaven of God’s blessing on your life.

3, HAVE THE RIGHT MOTIVE
You know why God will never bless some people in their businesses or careers? It’s because they don’t have the right motive for the blessing. Why do you want to prosper in your business or career? What do you want to use the blessing for? Sometimes I listen to a song when I call people in their caller tune, the song in Yoruba language says, “God, I want to ride range rover, Dangote does not have two heads……” You see the motive of the singer for asking for God’s blessing is to buy and ride expensive cars, and God will not bless such people, but only Satan.

If you have a wrong motive for blessing, to use it for pride, to buy the latest car, to live extravagant lifestyle, then God will not want to waste His blessing on you. In this end time, God is looking for those He will bless, who have the mind to direct the blessings into His kingdom, to help the work of God, to help spread the gospel of holiness, to distribute free Christian materials, to support people in need, to freely share; not those who will divert the blessing of God for their own selfish or carnal motive.

….This message continues tomorrow in part 2 from Secret Number 4, Get Daily Direction From God. 5, Put God First & Share. 6, Meditate Daily in God’s Word. 7, Ask For God’s help and intervention.

Christianity EtcHow To Have A Blessed & Blissful Christmas Period by FreshGreen(op): 2:52am On Dec 25, 2016
HOW TO HAVE A BLESSED & BLISSFUL CHRISTMAS PERIOD
Christmas is a wonderful time to share the blessing and Joy of God with friends, family and people generally.

Before I continue on this wonderful topic, I want to say that several people commented on a message we shared that it is good for Christians to celebrate Christmas, some said Jesus Christ was not really born on December 25th, some said Christmas has idolatry origin and some said the day usually promote sin. Firstly, I would like to say that at RTEM – Revelation of Truth Evangelical Ministries, we are not here to please or impress anybody, we are not looking for fan or followers, we are not looking for fortune or contribution from people, we are not looking for fame. We are here to preach the Word of God as written in the Bible as simple, serious, spiritual and rightly sociable.

If you or your church says Christmas is ungodly, that does not make you spiritually sound, even Jehovah Witness sect who do not believe there is Hell fire – as much they lack spiritual understanding of the Word of God, yet then don’t celebrate Christmas. At the same time, some churches and Christians who involve in ungodly ceremony such burial ceremony will still say celebrating Christmas is sinful?

Burial program especially in this part of Africa, where people begin to print I.V for burial, buying new clothing, providing food and drinks like festival, organizing reception and party, renting chairs and tents, sharing gift and receiving donations, turning burial to celebration instead of mourning as if they are happy and rejoicing over the dead? This is not only unbiblical, but also barbaric. Food cooked at the so called Burial ceremony are sacrifices to dead. Psalm 106:28

Questions About Christmas
1, Was Christmas written in the Bible? The answer is NO, but that does not make it unbiblical. Asking where Christmas is written in the Bible is like asking where there is church wedding in the Bible, you won’t find it. There was wedding in the Bible,but no church wedding and no command for church wedding.

2, Was Christ really born on December 25th? The answer is NO and not necessary. Choosing a day out of 365 days to celebrate the birth of Christ is good, any day could be chosen because He owns all days. So if you are searching for the exact day Jesus was born, it is unnecessary, in fact we can have Christmas twice a year.

Questioning December 25th for marking the birth of the Savior Jesus Christ is like arguing about the Dec 1st of every year as World Aids day, saying Dec. 1st of World aids day is not authentic because aids did not start on Dec. 1st.

3, Why people commit more sins on Christmas day? On Christmas day, what matters is what you do, and not what people do, you are not responsible for others’ action, but yours. God has used different programs organized for Christmas to save and bless many lives in the world, God has used different great ministers of past and present to organize Christmas programs and songs and blessed lives, but you only see people who commit sins on Christmas? Because people commit more sins on Sunday than Monday, we are not going to worship God on Sunday?

HOW TO HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS PERIOD
What matters on Christmas is Christ that we celebrate in mass, and He must daily be celebrated in our lives. On Christmas day, Boxing Day and New Year celebration, here are the tips:

1, Share Gifts and Gospel With People. Christmas is all about sharing, “For God so loved the world that He gave His begotten Son”. Whatever you are sharing, please share the gospel with it. If you are giving gift, include a printed message of the gospel or a Christian movie that will bless and transform lives.

2, Have a Good Time With Family and Friends. In celebrating Christmas, this is an opportunity to share the message of salvation with family and friends, include it in your messages and wishes of Christmas. This is also an opportunity to reconnect, remember, or call family members and friends.

3, You Can Invite & Visit. Your family can invite brethren, family members or friends for dinner and watch Christian movies together. You can also use the period to visit, share the word of God around.

4, Reflect On Your Personal Christian Life. Yes, Christ is born, but are you born again. Is the purpose of Christ coming to the world fulfilled in your life?

The Bible says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16.

The primary purpose of Jesus Christ coming into this world is not to give your prosperity, healing or good life here on earth, but it is to give you everlasting life – saving you from sin and eternal damnation. Until you realize this, every other thing are unrealistic.

Have genuinely given your life to Jesus Christ since you have been celebrating Christmas?

If you have not experienced genuine salvation that gives victory of adamic nature, addicted sins, and common sins, or if your Christian life has gone low or backward, you can use today to rededicate your life to Jesus and experience the purpose and power of His birth.

Christianity EtcThe Wonders Of Christmas by FreshGreen(op): 1:50am On Dec 25, 2016
THE WONDERS OF CHRISTMAS

Christmas day is a day of the year where Christ is mentioned more than other days

Christmas is a day the miracle of the birth of Jesus Christ is shared and said more than other days of the year

Christmas is the most expected and respected day of the year

Christmas is a day people share gifts more than any other day.

Christmas is the most celebrated day of the year

The main purposes of Christmas are: Sacrifice, Salvation, Sonship, Sanctification, Sharing, and Serving God!

God will not judge you for celebrating Christmas except if Jesus Christ is not celebrated daily in your life.

God will not judge you of the evil other people commit on Christmas day, he will not judge you by what others do on Christmas day but by what you do, use this day well!

God will not condone you with hypocrisy, even if you don’t celebrate Christmas, He didn't condone the Puritans in UK,(Where are they today?) He doesn't condone the Jehovah Witness sect.

Condemning Christmas is hypocrisy of human holiness which doesn’t last.

Celebrating Christmas is not a must, it is personal, but it is a must for you to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior.

From Revelation of Truth Evangelical Ministries, RTEM, we say MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Christianity EtcDo Not Worry! by FreshGreen(op): 1:02am On Dec 23, 2016
DO NOT WORRY!
Matthew 6:31, “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

This is a straight command from Jesus Christ to all His children, "Do not worry" Worry does not solve problem, it does not settle situation, but it weakens people and worsens things. To be worried is to be disturbed and anxious about thing, situation or people.

DANGERS OF WORRY!
(1) It kills faith. When you allow worry, you are burring your faith alive.

(2) It distracts Christians from putting their total trust in God.

(3) It brings discouragement. Worry only shows you how impossible and terrible things are, worry can not encourage you or give you right solution, but only to make you discouraged.

(4) It weakens prayer life. Worry weakens prayer life, it shows you that prayer can't solve the matter on ground; it tells you God is not or will not help. The major assignment of worry is to weak prayer life; when you allow worry to linger in your heart, your prayer life will be lost.

(5) It leads to sinful alternative. When worry is almost through with its assignment in a Christian's life, there will begin suggestions of sinful alternatives; since your faith is weak, your prayer life is down, the next thing is to think of sinful alternative. That is how many Christians backslide.

{You cannot wait on God while you are worried! Worry drains and dries strength to wait on God}

(6) It destabilizes health, relationship, and zeal for God's work.

(7) It is from Satan. Do you ever wonder where worry originates from? Well, it is not from Jesus, because Jesus warns us never to worry; worry is a spirit from Satan to steal your hope in Christ, to kill your faith and to destroy your life. Please, do not allow him.

If you are a child of God, worrying is like shooting yourself in the foot, because it only brings harms and no good.

SOLUTIONS FOR WORRY
Worry is not something that you have to invite before it comes, it will always come uninvited, because it is an emotional and spiritual intruder; it will always come no matter your spiritual level and strength. But there are ways to block worry, that it will never have a chance in your life again.

From Matthew 6:25-34, we can find these solutions:

Rest On God And Resist The Devil
When things are running down, when time is running out, and when people are running here and there, you just rest on God, because God is right there with you. Never entertain devil's suggestion of worry, but resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Matthew 6:31, 32
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things."

Pray About Everything
You have a choice: Pray or worry! You can't do both together, because one of the most stupid things a Christian can do is to pray and worry at the same time. Do not worry after you pray. You can worry without prayer, but no need to worry after you pray. Pray and never panic again.

Philippians 4:6
"Do not worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks." NCV

Make Heaven Your Priority
When you make heaven your first priority, whatever happens or does not happen in this life will not lead you to sin against God; when the kingdom of God is your priority, situation of this life will not weigh you down from doing God's work. You have read about saints of old who kept serving and working for God despite difficulties? It was possible for them because they made heaven their primary focus.

CONCLUSION
Whatever the case may be, here is a message for you from your Lord and Savior: Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. - Jesus Christ, from Matthew 6:31-34.

HE CARES, YES HE DOES!

Christianity EtcMoses' Striking by FreshGreen(op): 3:01am On Dec 22, 2016
MOSES' STRIKING

When the children of Israel complained of thirsty in the wilderness the second time, God told Moses to speak to the rock before their eyes, Numbers 20:8. But instead, Moses disobeyed and struck the rock. Yet God answered and provided the water immediately, in fact that the water came out abundantly did not imply God was pleased with Moses' disobedience, and the fact that Moses disobeyed God did not stop God from performing miracle through him.

Numbers 20:7, 8, "Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 8 “Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.”

Numbers 20:11, "Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank."

As a minister, you can be carrying out ungodly projects in your ministry, building multimillion edifice while many members are suffering of lack of accommodation and food to eat, yet you can still experience abundant success and progress. Your church can build university with expensive fees, and yet the presence of God still continues. Your church can be unfaithful to the biblical way of using tithes and offering, and still experience God's presence abundantly. Your pastors and church can be using different ungodly administrative systems, preaching heresies, and still continue to experience signs and wonders.

As a person, you can be displeasing God, doing things that are not approved by the Lord, and yet things will be working for you. You know what? Moses disobeyed God and miracle followed his disobedience, but he was disqualified from entering the Promised Land. Your disobedience may not stop God's blessing in your life, and as a minister of God or church, your disobedience, selfishness, lies, worldliness, indulgences, unfaithfulness to spending offerings and extravagant lifestyle may not necessarily hinder God's flowing of anointing and flourishing of blessings in your lives and church, but they will definitely disqualify you from making heaven if you do not repent now.

If a minister of God sins or begin to live or teach enormously, he may still continue to experience signs and wonders and the anointing flowing, but his name has been removed from the book of life and he no longer qualify for heaven, yet the anointing may keep on flowing with miracles, signs and wonders. After God answered Moses’s prayer with miracle of water supply even in his disobedience, God sentenced him in His judgment in the following verse of Numbers. 20:12, "Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”

God is not a respecter of any man, even the greatest man of God on earth in the Old Testament, in the person of Moses, was judged by God. God is not partial to overlook or cover sin of anyone, minister or members. He could not overlook the sin of a man after His heart like David, but gave due punishment. So any minister or Christian who commits sin, who teaches or lives in an unbiblical manner may still experience continuous flowing of anointing and blessings but he is playing with eternal judgment and condemnation if he does not repent now.

Jesus said, “Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in your name, cast out demons in your name, and done many wonders in your name? And then I will declare to them, I never knew you, depart from me, you who practice lawlessness!." Matthew 7:22, 23.

Christianity EtcDifference Between Christmas And Xmas! (please Read) by FreshGreen(op): 9:19am On Dec 18, 2016
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHRISTMAS AND XMAS! (Please read)

Do you know that there is difference between Christmas and Xmas?

I see many Christians typing “Xmas” instead of Christmas, even on our page; many are ignorant of this and some are living outside of Christ.

Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Christ among Christians worldwide; as we celebrate Christmas, Christ is set as the priority and the center of the celebration, so it is more than secular or social celebration, but a Christian celebration with in-depth meaning in our relationship with God. That God love us so much that He sent His only begotten Son for us; that Jesus Christ was born for us, for our salvation, IMMANUEL! Christmas also signifies that the world is recognizing and calling Jesus the Christ, that the Messiah of the world; it is a witness to pass message to the world that Christ has been born and you are called to be born again in Christ.

But along the way, the devil was not happy as the word “Christmas” was circulating around the world everywhere even in the official, secular and social places, people calling Jesus Christ; and so people under the control of Satan moved to cancel Christ from Christmas, to remove Christ from the December 25th celebration, and you know when Christ is left from a celebration, when Christ is not glorified in whatever you are doing, it become idolatry.

So, in subtle and modern English, they cancelled Christ from Christmas and replaced it with Xmas. In English, X is another sign of cancelling, removing or wronging something. A symbol of approval may look like this √ or to mark something right but to cancel something, to disapprove something, you can use a symbol of X. This is the Xmas you have today, where Christ is removed and cancelled = Xmas. So where is the Christ in the Christmas we are celebrating today?

HISTORY
If you search the history of the word “Xmas” online, you will see different answers. They said that in Greek letters, X stands for “Chi” but since 'X' is not Chi in English, we read the word as X-mas and see no connection with Christ. In the United States, in 1977 New Hampshire Governor Meldrim Thomson sent out a press release saying that he wanted journalists to keep the 'Christ' in Christmas and not call it Xmas--which he called a 'pagan' spelling of Christmas. An American Evangelist and Missionary Franklin Graham told CNN journalist Roland Martin in an interview: "For us as Christians, this is one of the most holy of the holidays, the birth of our saviour Jesus Christ. And for people to take Christ out of Christmas. They're happy to say merry Xmas. Let's just take Jesus out. – allafrica.com

CHRISTMAS
Christmas is celebrating the birth of Christ into the world, and more than that, it is celebrating your birth in Christ, being born again, or how will you better celebrate Christmas without you being genuinely born again? That is useless! John 3:3

Christmas is remembering the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and renewing our commitment to His service – living for Him and sharing the Good news to all men - evangelism! John 3:35, 36
Christmas is remembering the sacrificial giving of God, and practise the giving. “For God so loved the world that He gave His begotten Son” John 3:16. Giving is part and parcel of Christmas, sharing with others, no matter how small. You celebrating Christmas without sharing is an empty Christmas.

XMAS
Xmas is a manipulated type of celebration by the unsaved, though claimed to be Christians. It is a pagan way of calling Christmas, they are scared to called “Christ” or they show they reject Jesus as the Christ of their lives, or they see writing “Christmas” as too long and lonesome.

Xmas is celebrating on December 25th without genuine salvation in Christ.

Xmas is celebrating Christmas in a way that will not glorify Christ.
Xmas is celebrating Christmas without Christ as the center.

WHICH ONE DO YOU CELEBRATE?
With the clear differences listed above, you can clarify which type you have been celebrating or you are celebrating today. The genuine celebration of Christ begins the day you are genuinely born again, and on the Christmas, you make Christ the center of your celebrating, you do everything that will glorify Christ, you use the period to share the Good news of the birth of Christ.

NOTE 1: If you have not experienced genuine salvation that gives victory of adamic nature, addicted sins, and common sins, or if your Christian life has gone low or backward, you can use today to rededicate your life to Jesus and experience the purpose and power of His birth. Please click on this link, read the short message and pray as directed http://www.facebook.com/notes/revelation-of-truth-evangelical-ministries-rtem/how-can-i-be-saved/270674586372252

NOTE 2: If you have been saved, you need to recommit yourself to serve God better and share His Good news more than ever before. The end is nearer than before. And do not join the pagan to call or type Christmas as Xmas.

God bless you and Merry CHRISTmas!

Christianity Etc“i Will Tell Jesus For You” by FreshGreen(op): 1:22am On Dec 15, 2016
“I WILL TELL JESUS FOR YOU”
……..Secret of Strength in Stressful Situation

Few days ago, my son was playing with an item in the house he wasn’t supposed to play with, so for him not to damage it, I collected it from him. He was not happy with me collecting the item from him but he couldn’t do anything against it, so he looked at me and said, “I will tell Jesus for you” meaning He would report me to Jesus. This is very funny as a child but it was serious to him. He felt since he was not happy that I collected the item he was using to play from him and he thought no one greater in the house He could report me to, so He said he would report me to Jesus.

YOU SHOULD TELL JESUS TOO
This is a secret of strength and also success in life. When we are displeased by what people do or by situation, disappointed by people we trust, or even delayed; in such situations we need not to be discouraged or depressed or panic, but we should tell it to Jesus in prayer.

In the book of 1 Samuel 8:6, “But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” So Samuel prayed to the LORD.” As children of God, when we are displeased with any situation, the first thing we should do is to pray about it, and not to panic.

WHY YOU NEED TO TELL JESUS
In any situation when we are displeased, disappointed or disturbed, the first thing that should be done before any other thing is to pray about it, why? Because we get two things from God when we pray about such displeasing, disappointing or disturbing situation:

1, PEACE & COMFORT: When your mind is troubled and disturbed as a result of a displeasing or disappointing event, you need the peace and comfort of God more than anything, this peace passes human understanding, it calms the storming sea, it calms our fear and anxieties; even when situation and things around are displeasing and disturbing, you will have the peace of God that passes all understanding. This peace and comfort you get when you take everything to God in prayer and leave it there.

2, DIVINE DIRECTION & SOLUTION
There is no situation in life that makes one vulnerable to wrong decision as when one is displeased or disappointed. In such a situation when one is displeased, if care is not taken, one can make wrong decision, take wrong direction and find a wrong solution that will worsen things at the end. But the secret of men and women who scaled through displeasing and disappointing situations in life into success is by taking things to God in prayer first.

Let’s look at the example of Moses in the book of Exodus chapter 14, when situations were displeasing as the Egyptians forces were marching against him and the Israelite's and the Red sea in front blocked them; and the children of Israel were complaining in a disappointing manner. Moses cried to God for divine direction in verse 15, “And the LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.”

The direction you take when things are tough will determine your destiny in life. That is the reason you need to go to God for divine direction in any displeasing or disappointing situation, so that the devil will not take advantage of you by pushing you into a wrong path.

What about the case of David in 1 Samuel chapter 30? Time will not permit me to give example of several others who took their unpleasant conditions and disappointing situations to God in prayer, and He turned their unpleasant conditions to pleasant and their disappointment to re-appointment.

Do not in haste take decision that will lead you into sin or land you in wrong direction because of displeasing people around or disappointing situation, but first take it to God in prayer, and He will calm your fear, guide your step and give you an expected end.

Christianity EtcShould Christians Really Celebrate Christmas? by FreshGreen(op): 10:10pm On Dec 13, 2016
SHOULD CHRISTIANS REALLY CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS?
Christmas period is a time of celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ everywhere in the world, but should we really celebrate Christmas at all?" I think this short article can be of little help, let's see:

OPPOSITIONS
There two major reasons people oppose celebrating Christmas as Christians. The first reason is that Christmas originated from pagan worship, and the second reason is that Jesus was not really born on December 25th.

(i) Origin: Should we celebrate what originated from pagan worship? Well, the point is that it was actually the holiday of Saturnalia that the pagans celebrated then, not Christmas. Christmas was a replacement of Saturnalia festival in Christendom; Christmas solely celebrates Christ Jesus, and it has no link or connection with idol festival as far as Christmas is concerned today. To oppose Christmas because the similar or same day was formally celebrated by pagans is wrong. If you oppose Christmas, then you will oppose Easter because both have similar history; if you oppose both Christmas and Easter, then you will need to oppose going to church on Sunday, because Sunday was a formal holiday for the god of Sun, and if you oppose worshiping on Sunday, then you must oppose calling days like Sunday, Monday, Saturday, etc. Because they all have idolatry origin. If you still believe the names are attached to idols, like Sunday for Sun god, and Monday for Moon god, and you don't worship God on Sunday, and you mention the idolatry names? Then you still agree with it.

Those who oppose celebrating Christmas because it has idolatry origin may not be surprised that their surnames may have idolatry origin or affiliation. Many Christians today whose surnames are linked to idolatry, even though they are aware, yet they have no conviction to change their idolatry linked surnames because they, at the present, have nothing to do with idolatry. The same thing is applicable with Christmas. even if Christmas is linked with any form of idolatry origin, but as long its celebrating today has nothing to do with any idolatry, then is worth celebrating.

Christmas was not celebrated for the first 300 years of early church, until the catholic, so also church auditorium or Christian conference was not built by early Christians for 300 years until the catholic. Building church auditorium can also be traced to the pagan gods. Does that means building church auditorium is evil? No, but it must be moderate, not multimillion or magnificent as these modern Christianity and even those who claim holiness.

The fact that Christmas was traced to pagan festival does not means it is wrong to celebrate Christmas. Today we celebrate Christ at Christmas and Him alone.

(ii) Day of Birth: Jesus might not be born on December 25th, and it is not necessary for Christmas day. People can choose any day to celebrate Jesus' day of birth, because He owns all days; only we, the humans, can be tied to a day we were born for birthday.

MUST WE CELEBRATE?
Do we have to celebrate, sing and give gifts to mark the birth of Jesus? The answer is YES? Luke 2:13, "And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”

Angels in heaven celebrated the birth of Jesus, so it is not wrong for Christians to celebrate the birth of Jesus, as long as Jesus alone is mentioned and no connection to any idol or selfish purpose. It is not wrong to celebrate Christmas as long Christ is the center of the celebration and everything you do glorifies His name; it is wrong for people who celebrate self or sinful indulgences during Christmas. Christians can celebrate Christ at Christmas and share with people.

God will not judge you for celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ on December 25th, He will only judge you if Jesus Christ is not celebrated in your life and if you celebrate Christmas in sinful manner.

THE BAD NEWS
The bad thing about Christmas is that it's not everyday; the joyful feeling, the celebration and sharing do not last, only for few days, and the worse is the Christmas day, it goes faster and ends. I wish it can always stay longer with such wonderful feeling. The worst part of it is that if only during Christmas you experience the joy of the birth of Jesus, then you are a miserable person.

THE GOOD NEWS
Christmas celebration doesn't last, but the good news is that when you accept Jesus into your life as your Lord, you will always experience more than the joy of Christmas. If you have not experienced the joy of Salvation since you have been a Christian, then you are unrecognized by Jesus, you need genuine salvation to have the unlimited joy.

If you have lost your joy of Salvation, you need to get it restored. Repentance, that is to realize and ready to forsake your sins, and accepting Jesus as your Lord, are the only means to have the unspeakable joy of Jesus! When you become saved, you begin life that pleases Jesus, not your self or Satan, you walk away from any form of sin; that is when the birth of Jesus will bring joy and justification. But if you realize Jesus as Savior of the world and remain in your sins, it will only bring judgment.

We can care for Christmas by celebrating Christ, but more than that, we should be celebrated by Christ through genuine salvation and living in holiness and righteousness, so that we can celebrate with Christ forever in heaven!

John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

Christianity EtcP R A Y I N G - A M I S S by FreshGreen(op): 6:03am On Dec 11, 2016
P R A Y I N G - A M I S S
Praying amiss or praying wrongly is misplacing priorities or order of precedence in prayer. When we are praying but fail to follow the order of precedence or we misplace priorities of prayer, it means we are praying amiss. A Christian can be praying day and night, praying and fasting and yet always fall back into sin; because he fails to pray it right. In the Bible, Jesus Christ gave us prototype, example of general order of prayer; it is called Our Lord’s Prayer. This prayer lays priorities and precedence of prayer orderly.

Matthew 6:8, “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. 9 In this manner, therefore, pray:
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
10 Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
13 And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen

(1) Praise and Worship – A right prayer begins with praising God that answers prayers.

(2) Preparation for the Kingdom of God and doing the will of God. The precedence of a right prayer is praying on one’s spiritual life as the first request – praying for God’s searching and sanctification, praying for God’s grace to overcome temptation and sinful habits, praying for the strength of Holy Spirit to resist Satan, to be watchful and do the will of God on earth.

After you have been saved and come into the kingdom of God, your prayer must center on God’s grace and strength to remain in the kingdom of God and to do God’s will every day. Your first prayer points and priority should center on your spiritual life – praying for God’s cleansing, to continuously sanctify you, strengthens you and sustain you. Christians who put their physical, financial or material needs first before their spiritual lives in their prayers suffer spiritual setbacks and become too weak to resist sinful habits. If you are determined to be prayerful, then you need to be watchful on your spiritual life in prayer with how and what you pray about. 1 Peter 4:7, “But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers.”

Many Christians pray, many churches organize different prayer meetings and prayer programs, but they pray amiss because their priorities and focus are not on God’s kingdom and living in holiness and righteousness to please God. They center their priorities and prayer points on physical needs, miracles, deliverance and financial prosperity and breakthrough. Such Christians will easily fall back to old sinful habits and persistent temptations because their spiritual lives are not their priorities in their prayers.

Christianity EtcThese Are The Infallible Truth You Need To Know: by FreshGreen(op): 5:15am On Dec 11, 2016
THESE ARE THE INFALLIBLE TRUTH YOU NEED TO KNOW:

1, We are not saved through our work or righteousness but we are not saved to continue in unrighteousness. Ephesians 2:10

2, Faith in Christ without new life of holiness in Christ is fake. Romans 6:1,6

3, You can work righteousness without genuine faith in Christ but you cannot have genuine faith without working and walking in righteousness of life. 1 John 3:7-9

4, We are saved through faith in Christ for righteous works. Ephesians 4:21-23.

5, Claiming faith in Christ and continuing in sinful and worldly lifestyle is a fake type of faith. Titus 1:16

6, Faith without work of righteousness in Christ through the grace of Christ is death. James 2:26

Are you among the fake Christians carrying about fake salvation who will eventually be shown to the left side on the last day?

Jesus said, "Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’" Matthew 7:22, 23

Christianity EtcWhy A Regenerated Christian Reversed Into Sin (2) by FreshGreen(op): 12:07pm On Dec 08, 2016
WHY A REGENERATED CHRISTIAN REVERSED INTO SIN (2)

Spiritual Negligence – Not knowing what you ought to know that may cause you to fall into sin, and not careful enough. In legal system, no excuse for negligence. Being ignorant in case of offence is different from being innocent and we should not see them as the same. To be innocent is to lack awareness or existence of something, but to be ignorant is to lack knowledge; it is a failure to know what you ought to know and fail to follow it. In traffic laws, if you don’t have fire extinguisher in your car, you may be charged, don’t waste your time by saying, “But I am confident I cannot have fire accident”. If you drive too close to another vehicle in front of you and fail to give the regulated space, and you hit the front vehicle because it stopped suddenly, you may be charged responsible for the accident. You cannot excuse yourself that the vehicle in front of you stopped suddenly, because if you give considerable gap, you would not hit the vehicle. Likewise, spiritual negligence is being careless. Many Christians eventually perished at the end, not because they were not initially saved but because of ignorance, spiritual negligence.

FRIVOLITY: It’s carelessly or ignorantly getting involved in things that weaken spiritual strength, and puncture spiritual life and then make one unable to withstand temptation. This is a common carelessness Satan uses to bring down many Christians into their old sinful habits, because such habits do not immediately lead to sin, they don’t blow or bomb Christian lives at the spot, they only puncture and it is just a matter of time. If a Christian is watchful of satanic bombs, since everybody may run away from bomb, but then Satan can bring in small nails, small arrows that may seem not so harmful but many become victims.

Such frivolous habits are casual but they cause serious casualties, damage and destruction, they are simple but they sink several strong faith. They are like inconsistent Bible reading or daily devotion, over-talking, getting involve in little, little worldly stuffs, watching worldly movies, watching wrestling, getting too much involved as a sport fan, special love and care for latest phones, cars, electronics and other things of this world, listening to worldly music, browsing not-so-real-pornographic sites, checking nude pictures, using worldly materials like makeup, worldly dress; watching “decent worldly” TV shows like American Idol, African Idol, Nigerian Idol, dance competition, reality shows that promote immorality and so on. These things indirectly drain spiritual strength, hinder free flow of God’s grace and Spirit, hamper spiritual growth, and eventually make a Christian spiritually weak and unable to resist temptation.

They are subtle but satanic strategies of destroying Christian faith and bringing people back into their old sinful habits. Those who involve in such things often wonder why they always experience up and down, forward and backward in their Christian lives; it is as a result of spiritual negligence of frivolity – not knowing what you ought to know, not taking heed when the Spirit of God quietly cautions you and when the Word of God quickly corrects you, you ignore Him that such things do not matter since every Christian is doing it and doing fine. So such ignorance is inexcusable.

Christianity EtcWhy A Regenerated Christian Reversed Into Sin (1) by FreshGreen(op): 10:26am On Dec 07, 2016
WHY A REGENERATED CHRISTIAN REVERSED INTO SIN (1)
1 Corinthians 10:12, “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.”

A child of God falling back into one sinful habit or the other is as a result of two major things: Carelessness and Prayerlessness. If a child of God falls back into a particular old sin, it may not be because he did not experience genuine salvation, it’s may not be because he was not delivered from that sinful habit at the beginning of his new life, and not because he falls back automatically as if Christian life is all about rising and falling into sin and believing God’s mercy to cover our continuous sins; it is due to carelessness and prayerlessness. Let’s check them one by one.

C A R E L E S S N E S S
“Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.” 1 Corinthians 10:12
When you are saved by Jesus Christ, and become a new person in Him, He sets you free from sinful habits and makes the grace and strength for the new life available, but you need to always take heed – that is to be watchful – so that you don’t fall back into your old sinful habits after all, because Satan does not sleep nor give up on you, he is looking every time for every means to make you fall back into his traps.

Carelessness comes into Christian life through different means:
(1) Spiritual Recklessness – knowing that something may lead to sin but you are too confident in yourself that it will not lead you to sin.
OVERCONFIDENCE: Many Christians, after their salvation and freedom from Sin and Satan, later fall back over and over because of overconfidence. Overconfidence is when you “think” that you stand and you cannot fall and so you become too close to source of temptation, the appearance of sin. When you think you stand, it is good but you are the one who think so in the first instance, God does not tell you so; to God, you are still rising and standing but not yet stand. Don’t over-think of yourself lest you become overconfident. Thinking that you stand is not a problem but taking heed is the priority, so we need to take heed than thinking that we have made all the standing.

Overconfidence is being confident in your spiritual stand that you get too close to the appearance, the source or the form of sin and being confident you will not or never fall. The truth is that anybody call fall, irrespective of how long or how strong they have been standing; it is the grace and the strength of God that keeps everyone but the grace of God does not go beyond the limit ground which God lays for us. When we go beyond the limit, we become vulnerable to falling into satanic traps. That is the reason the Lord warns us to abstain from every appearance of evil (sin). 1 Thessalonians 5:22.

In Christian watchfulness, appearance of sin is a sin itself. Just like in traffic system, if you don’t use seat belt while driving, you will be charged. You may not need to say, “But no accident yet.” A careful Christian does not move close to the appearance or form of sin. Appearance or form of evil is a situation or thing that may lead to sin. We all know where came from, the lifestyles we were living before Jesus saved us, we know our spiritual weaknesses; we all know what can trigger us into sin or make us vulnerable to sin. There are personal and general appearances of sin; anything that may lead to sin or that easily lead us to old habit is appearance of evil, and that is what we need to stay away from. NJKV says, “Form of evil” It may be people, places, materials, thoughts, talks, etc. We must stay far away before they are formed. The form of evil is the forming of sin, the level by which falling may be unavoidable and irresistible, It’s the shadow of sin, when you see a shadow you are sure that the object may be unavoidable.

A careless Christian will be overconfident to reach the appearance of sin, thinking he will not fall, thinking he is too strong and mature to fall, thinking he is a formidable Christian to sin; thinking it’s only baby and weak Christians who fall in such situation, thinking he has gone beyond the level that he will be scared to fall by such temptation, and not knowing that he is the one who thinks he stands.

A careful and watchful Christian knows what can lead her to sin, and she will not wait until she sees the sin before she will take heed. In Christian race, maturity is actually taking heed, knowing when to remain or run, that is self-control and tenderness. On the other way, overconfidence is not maturity but satanic deception to confidently seat on a chair put on a covered pit.

Christianity EtcThe Necessity Of Restitution by FreshGreen(op): 9:46pm On Dec 05, 2016
THE NECESSITY OF RESTITUTION
Restitution is not about playing "holier than thou" Christianity, it is not about proving over-righteousness, and not even about just to fulfill all righteousness. Restitution is simply restoring your destiny from the damage of your past lifestyle. Your fulfilling destiny on earth and eternal destiny with God in heaven hinge on this Bible command.

How easy for you to fulfill your destiny depends on how easy you respond to restitution. Why many people's glorious destinies are hooked by darkness even after they have been saved and after they have prayed and fasted is as a result of unsettled restitution. There are some restorations in your life that only restitution can do. Nothing can substitute restitution except restitution itself.

If you have cheated, stole, deceived or falsified documents or information to gain wealth, certificate, papers, job, property, etc. you need to repent, rededicate your life to Jesus Christ and then return what you got unlawfully.

RECOMMENDED BIBLE PASSAGES:
Exodus chapter 22; Judges 17:1,2

RECOMMENDED CHRISTIAN MOVIE:
FLYWHEEL - By Ken Brothers, producers of Courageous, Facing The Giants and War Room.

Christianity Etc“this Money Is Not My Money” by FreshGreen(op): 9:38am On Dec 05, 2016
“THIS MONEY IS NOT MY MONEY”
Last week Friday, I was in hurry to get few USD for my office’s transaction, so I went to Bureau De Change to get the dollar. Because I was in a hurry to collect the money and pay into the bank before it closes, I mistakenly over paid the man at the Bureau De Change, I was to pay him about N67,000 (Nigerian money), but I paid him N73,000 unknowingly. Later the man called me on phone and told me I overpaid him and that I should come to collect the excess. I was surprised and I later went back to him. The Muslim man explained to me that when he later sat down to count the money well, he discovered the excess of N5600, he said, “This money is not my money, gaskia!”

I thought about the statement of this man, “This money is not my money” meaning he could not unlawfully take another man’s money with his own. He couldn’t join another man’s money with his own, though he is not a Christian but he had that fear that it is dangerous to do such.

How Dangerous?
When you take what doesn’t belong to you, when you unlawfully add someone’s money or belonging to your own, you are in danger of the mess of the devil.

LOSS OF DESTINY
While you want to play smart and cheat, steal or deceive someone, you unlawfully gain another man’s possession, in your own mind, you are playing smart, but before God you are a fool. You know what will happen? God will take 100% of what you steal from your destiny, and use it to repay your victim. Can you imagine people who unlawfully gained wealth but lost their health? Some lost the glorious destiny God has for them, yet they think they are smart.

LOSS OF GREAT THINGS
When God is about to do something great in a man’s life or about to take him to greater level, the devil will bring temptation of getting what does not belong to him, he will package a dangerous gift for him, a gift of compromising to gain possession, of cheating or stealing or even picking another man’s money or property’s on the ground, and if you are too smart, you become foolish and miss God’s great plan for your life.

LOSS OF ETERNITY
Cheating, stealing, deceiving people, taking or giving bribe or falsifying information to gain wealth will not only deprive you of God’s glorious plan for you on earth but it will also deny you of eternal life with God in heaven. So what shall it profit a man after he gained lots of money, possessions and properties and he is lost forever in eternity?

SOLUTION: THE NECESSITY OF RESTITUTION
If you have cheated, stole, deceived or falsified documents or information to gain wealth, certificate, papers, job, property, etc. you need to repent, rededicate your life to Jesus Christ and then return what you got unlawfully.

Christianity EtcNo Repentance, Keep Repeating by FreshGreen(op): 6:45am On Dec 02, 2016
NO REPENTANCE, KEEP REPEATING!
Have you ever wondered why you have confessed your sins at different altar calls or personal confessions, and yet you kept repeating such sinful lifestyle? Do you wonder why people keep repeating sins even after sincere confessions? Do you wonder why you confessed your sins and believed you were saved and then serving God, but yet you still ran back into sin? Or you are disturbed why you keep confessing and committing sin? The answer is because you didn’t repent. Without repentance, you will keep repeating the same sins you have confessed.

The foundation of genuine salvation is repentance; the beginning of genuine salvation is repentance. If you really need genuine salvation of your soul, then the first thing you need now is repentance. You can confess a sin hundred times without repentance; you will keep committing the sin again. To experience salvation and unspeakable peace of God that follows, what you need first is not to confess your sin or to claim that Jesus Christ is your Savior. The first step is to repent. It is after you repent that you can then move to the next step of confessing the sin you have repented from and claim your salvation in Jesus Christ.

Repentance is not trying by struggling with sin; repentance is simply trusting, trusting God to forgive all your sins. Trying to live Christian life involves struggling, but trusting God to make you a Christian, His child, is by surrendering, you surrender all, repentance is realizing your shortcomings and sins and readness to forsake those sins by surrendering all to God. God does not take our 99.9% surrender but 100%. You cannot experience genuine salvation until you surrender all to God; all your sins, not most of them, every area of your life, not majority. God sees our hearts and knows our intents, until we truly surrender all at Calvary and ready to let go of all sins, ready to forsake all and follow Him. Until you surrender all, you will keep struggling with all, you will keep confessing and committing, forward and backward, trying and error.

Now, God is not expecting you to be sorry for yourself, He is not expecting you to see to your situation or think about it, and He is not expecting you to keep struggling with sins; what He expects from you is to simply surrender all now.

Repent – realize and ready to forsake every form of sin and unrighteousness in your life; surrender your sinful life to God and ask Him to forgive and cleanse you.

Pray – Right now you need to pray to God from your heart, confess all your sins and surrender all. Tell Jesus Christ to forgive you, cleanse you and save you. You can pray the prayer for the next few minute now, as Jesus is right beside you. 1 John 1:9. “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Have you prayed that? Then you are saved!

After you have prayed and experienced salvation, then you follow JESUS!

Mark 8:34, "When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, “Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me."

Christianity EtcReligious Activities Without Active Relationship With Jesus by FreshGreen(op): 4:50am On Dec 01, 2016
RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES WITHOUT ACTIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS
Matthew 23:23, “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.”

Activity in the name of God without active relationship with Jesus is a mere religion. The Pharisees were more concerned about paying tithes than living a life of justice and mercy. Paying tithes-sermon is a common sermon in many churches today; paying tithes is good and biblical, but more than that is presenting your life as a living sacrifice, holy and accepted to God, which is your reasonable service. The truth is that, tithes payment is not meant for everybody in the church except those who have totally surrendered their lives to Jesus Christ- you may not hear that from your modern preachers. God wants us to first present our lives holy unto Him before we begin to pay tithes. Those G.Os, Bishops and pastors who say everybody, including unbelievers, should pay tithes are modern and mere Pharisees.

If you are not genuinely saved and serving God in holiness, you need not to be concerned about paying tithes and offerings, your concern should be to first surrender your life to Jesus and be sanctified. Preachers who preach tithes more than more transformation of life in godliness are modern Pharisees. You are not qualified to pay tithes or help God’s work until you totally surrender your life to Jesus and start new life of holiness in Him. Your tithes and offerings are useless and baseless without the salvation of your soul and sanctification of your life.

Isaiah 1:13-16
Bring no more futile sacrifices;
Incense is an abomination to Me.
The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and the calling of assemblies—
I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting.
14 Your New Moons and your appointed feasts
My soul hates;
They are a trouble to Me,
I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you spread out your hands,
I will hide My eyes from you;
Even though you make many prayers,
I will not hear.
Your hands are full of blood.
16 “Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean;
Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes.
Cease to do evil.

Christianity EtcHow To Check If You Are Under Wrong Ministrations by FreshGreen(op): 4:41am On Dec 01, 2016
HOW TO CHECK IF YOU ARE UNDER WRONG MINISTRATIONS

Do you have a Sermon Note Book in which you write down messages in your church? Then check the last 10 messages of your church or 10 CD of your favorite preacher; if majority of the messages and sermons center on earthly blessings, breakthrough, deliverance from enemies of life, promises of prosperity and such prayers, more than messages of holiness, purity and preparation for the second coming of Jesus Christ - if such is the case with you, then you have been feeding on the leaven and loaves of Pharisees for your destruction.

If at least 7 out of 10 messages of your church or favorite preachers are all about earthly blessings and breakthrough, then you are feeding under wrong ministrations; they are strategically preparing you to miss heaven and enlist you as candidate of hell fire.
Christianity EtcIf Your Pastor...... by FreshGreen(op): 4:20am On Dec 01, 2016
IF YOUR PASTOR.......
If your pastors preach about signs and wonders, miracles and blessings more than salvation and sanctification of life, it means your pastors are modern Pharisees. If your Bishop, G.O, or Senior Pastor teaches about breakthrough of prosperity and deliverance more than holiness and righteousness of life, it implies you are a victim of the doctrine of Pharisees. The worst of all is if your preachers or favorite pastors spend majority of the time of their messages, for example, spending about 55minutes to preach about God’s promises of blessings, breakthrough and prosperity, and when it remains like 5 minutes to round up, they begin to make “fire brigade” altar call without spending good time to talk about salvation – in order to pacify their conscience as if they still preach salvation, and to deceive you that you are in a bible church – please get it clear, if such is the situation of your church, it simply means you are under the hypocritical deception and delusion of Pharisees.
Christianity EtcBible Study: Not Far From The Kingdom Of God by FreshGreen(op): 10:47pm On Nov 29, 2016
BIBLE STUDY: NOT FAR FROM THE KINGDOM OF GOD
Mark 12:34, “Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.”

The knowledge of God is very important, it makes us close to the kingdom of God. But being close to the kingdom of God is not enough, and having the knowledge of God is not enough to make us qualify for the kingdom of God. Not far from the kingdom of God is “almost” but not yet, not far but not in.

You can be so close to somewhere and never enter there, you may not be far from a house and never enter in. There is difference between too close and being able to enter. The same is applicable to the kingdom of God. Your knowledge of God and your service unto God are wonderful, they make you close to the kingdom of God. You are now committed to things of God, you read your Bible and pray, you are devoted in your church and working for God, you pay your tithes and go through Bible class; now you know a lot about the things of God, you know your Bible more better and you pray more and preach better. But without practicing what you know, without holiness of life and righteousness of living, being clearly obvious in your life, you cannot enter the kingdom of God.

Not Far, But Not In
Many Christians of this day are not far from the kingdom of God, that is how Jesus would describe many today. When God showed revelation to people that out of a million of Christians, who are serving God, about very few thousands will make the rapture if it happens now. And what about the rest of the devoted Christians? They are not far from the kingdom! Not far from the kingdom of God is not enough, because it is not how far, but how sure. You may be so committed to the things of God, suffer and sacrifice for the work of God, but you may not be reckoned in the kingdom of God, if your name is not written in the Book of life in heaven .

Whatever you do for Christ or in the name of Christ without your name written in the Book of Life is a waste and totally baseless. The first thing you need to get settled and secured is your name to be written in the Book of Life and to still remain till minutes, without that, all others are immaterial to your life. You can be so busy in your church, so committed to God’s work; you can be performing miracles, teaching, winning souls, doing deliverance, leading, pastoring and praying day and night, if your name is not in the Book of Life till date, all your efforts are total useless.

You may be a well known Christian in your family, among your friends and on the Facebook; you can be a renown Christian minister of this generation, but if your name is not presently written in the Book of Life, you are not recognized in heaven and no place for you there.

Jesus Christ described that man in Mark 12:34 as not far from the kingdom of God, but not yet in at the same time. Your knowledge of the Bible without genuine salvation makes you not far from the kingdom of God, but fall short from entering in. until you have genuine salvation, you will be found wanting to enter the kingdom of God. Until you totally repent from all sins and forsake them at the same time by starting a new life, you are fall short of the kingdom of God.

If you have ever experienced genuine salvation, but you are not walking in total holiness and righteousness of life, you are also fall short of entering into the kingdom of God. When you are saved, your salvation gives you the grace to see the kingdom of God, that is to be so close by reaching the gate, but you need to walk out your salvation in holiness and righteousness by walking with God, it is then you can enter into the kingdom of God.

John 3:3, “ Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

John 3:5, “Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.”

There is difference between seeing the kingdom of God and eventually entering there. Without being born of water and Spirit, which is sanctification of life, you cannot enter there. Daily watchfulness in prayer and Bible reading, applying the Word of God into our lives to be fruitful therein are the means to live a sanctified life. Without holiness and righteousness no one can enter into the kingdom of God.

Now, what is the essence of not far from somewhere but never enter there? What is the use of being close to a desired building compound but never gained entrance? What is the benefit of going so far because of something, and at the end fall short of it?

Dear beloved, what is the essence of your being a Christian and at the end you are not qualified to enter heaven? Or rather, what is the use of claiming to be a Christian, being devoted in your church, working for God, paying tithes and offerings, praying and preaching of Christ, and at the end you are not permitted to enter the kingdom of God? What is the use of your Christianity without your name written in the Book of Life? What is the use of your Christian confession and profession without holiness of life?

Have you ever asked yourself this question of why will you do all these for Christ and never make the rapture? Why will you go so far for your Christian faith and at the end go to hell? How tragic will that be? With all your working for God? How terrible will it be with all the knowledge of God and grace and mercy of God you have, and you carry everything to hell, to end up with unbelievers, demons and devil?

I think what worth doing, worth doing well. Why will you not do ALL it will take to make heaven? Why will you not surrender ALL your life to Jesus now and get your heaven settled? Why will you allow that particular sin in your life or that covered sin and unsettled restitution to eventually disqualify you from entering heaven after you have gone so far? Why will you allow the secret sin, common sin, “it doesn’t matter” sin, “my pastor does not oppose it” sin, “we are doing it in our church” sin to block your ears from hearing the sound of the trumpet of the rapture?

Beloved, why will you not settle all at once now and surrender all to get your name secured in the Book of Life, so that whenever rapture or death comes, you will not have cause to cry?

R E P E N T!
Repentance is a matter of urgency now, for all of us. Let’s put aside pretense, realize your self, realize your sins, no cover up. Then renounce and forsake them at once, no procrastination! Confess your sins and shortcomings to God, no excuse; because those excuses will not help on the last day. Ask Jesus to forgive you as you also forsake them. Be determined to start a new of total dedication of holiness and righteousness in Jesus from today, and never turn back or fall back, come what may.

Christianity Etc7-yr-old Girl Reveals That Adeboye,tb Joshua, Oyedepo,oritsejafor & Others Will by FreshGreen(op): 11:00pm On Nov 27, 2016
7-Yr-Old Girl Reveals That Adeboye,TB Joshua, Oyedepo,Oritsejafor & Others Will Not Make Heaven, Say’s They Are Candidates of HELL!

Seven year old Iretioluwa is like every other children, but what makes her different is her spiritual proclamations, which makes her an extra-human being. When we were invited by her parents saying “our daughter wants you”. It was like a call not too clear. But upon inquiry made by a WHAT ELSE website, they claim they discovered that it was not just a call but a diving call that requires a diving response.

According to the website, they claim:

Ireti-Oluwa has become a friend of Jesus Christ upon whom she resides and proclaim messages for the world.

“Most times Jesus Christ appears to her and tells her lots of things especially hidden things which He (Jesus) wants us to know” declares the mother.

“But the most shocking of all she has been told is about men of God whom we reverence in this country and she told us to look for a Christian newspaper. In fact, she wrote the name of your magazine and we started looking for it” – the father cuts in.

We were ushered into the spacious living room of the Ifedayos when Iretioluwa was taking her breakfast. We waited for her to finish and we settled down for the business of the day.

Iretioluwa, a primary three pupil was so bold as she declared what she said was told her by Jesus Christ.

According to her, my Lord and savior said i should declare to Pastor Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God that he cannot make heaven. Though he started very well in spite of his works, he has compromised. “He has missed me a long time ago. I am only honouring my name in his life. He no longer has a place in me. Tell him to go back to his first love and drop every load of compromise he is carrying.

“Tell David Oyedepo that his hands are soiled with human blood. His name is not in the book of life. He has missed it a long time ago. Tell him what will profit him if he gains the whole world and end in Hell fire.

David Olukoya of Mountain of fire and miracles is encouraging evil and doesn’t want to repent. Tell him to stop living a double life. He knows the stones in his hands, tell him to drop them if he MUST enter heaven, he has to live a complete life of holiness.

Ayo Oritsejafor is not my servant. He has gone astray in the pursuit of fame, power, money. Warn him to repent before he ends where his boss his.

T.B. Joshua is an advocate of Satan in Nigeria, he has sold his soul to the devil and he knows hell is awaiting him.

Christ Oyakhilome made a vow to Satan and he has succeeded to win souls for Satan. He is the front runner of the new age teachings in the world.

Many pastors that hoist flags of different churches know why they are doing so. Beware of such gathering.

Evil altar has reached an alarming rate in Nigeria.

HERE IS A NOTE FROM RTEM:

If you are a member of any of the churches these ministers are leading or such churches, then you are in a misled, unbliblical church, you can pray for God's leading either to leave such misled church or ask for God's grace to be different and stand for the truth if at all God wants you to still remain there.

If you take any of these ministers as your role model, you are shooting yourself at the foot. Among them are backsliders, sinners and agents of Satan. If their big names and popularity are blindfolding you from seeing the truth, then you need the light of God's Word to set you free.

If you are a minister in any of these churches, it may be impossible for you to remain a genuine minister of God and speak the whole truth without being a rebel.

At this end time, the best Spiritual guide you can have is the BIBLE, the best Bible Teacher without any error you can have is the HOLY SPIRIT and the best role model that will not mislead you can ever have is the Lord Jesus Christ.

If you will are ready to totally surrender your life to Jesus and experience the light of God in your life, please click on this link, read and pray as directed https://www.facebook.com/notes/revelation-of-truth-evangelical-ministries-rtem/how-to-be-saved-and-start-a-new-life-in-jesus/270674586372252

Christianity EtcWhen God Is Working Behind The Scenes For Your Good by FreshGreen(op): 3:44am On Nov 27, 2016
WHEN GOD IS WORKING BEHIND THE SCENES FOR YOUR GOOD
1 Corinthians 2:9, “But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

Few days ago, the fuel in my car was almost empty so I branched to a favorite filling station to fill my tank. As the attendant was filling the car’s tank, I sat in the car. Then my attention was drawn to the fuel gauge on the dashboard which was already on the empty line, but as the car was being filled with fuel, the gauge didn’t move from the empty line. The tank was filled to the fullest, yet the gauge still remained at the empty line on the dashboard, why? Because the car was off. After the car’s tank was full and covered, then starting the car, the gauge raised to the last line of Full tank.

On this usual incidence, the Lord drew my attention to it to teach me a lesson, that many time when we are empty in some aspects of our lives and trusting God to fill us, and while He is busy filling us with the fullness of His blessings and grace behind the scene, we may not see it immediately and so we still feel empty. You know what? If you take your eyes off the fuel gauge and look behind, you will see the fuel attendant busy filling your tank with fuel. So also, if you take away your eyes from what is happening around you, from the empty feeling, and look by faith unto God, you will see the great things God is working out perfectly for you.

THE TWO REASONS
There are two reasons while we may not see the manifestation of the fullness of God’s blessings and grace in our lives at a time:
When The Appointed Time Has Not come

You know, if you drive to a fuel station to fill your tank, it is advisable to off your car while filling it with fuel, you need to wait till the fueling it through and your tank is covered before starting the car. The same thing is applicable with God; there is an appointed time for the manifestation, no need to rush. Do not be in hurry to rush out while God is still filling you. Those who rush will run into problem. That is the reason the Bible admonishes us several times to wait on the Lord, because there is an appointed time.

Only those who lack faith in the Lord find it difficult to wait for God’s time. Those who rush out before the appointed time of God will definitely run out of the anointing of God. In anything you are trusting God for, please wait for the appointed time of God and you will enjoy it to its fullest.

When We Refuse To Start
If you drive to a filling station to fill your car, you off the car and fill your tank and after it’s full you refuse to start the car, you may not see change with the fuel gauge on the dashboard until you start the car. Many times, we need to take the steps of faith before we can see and experience the manifold of God’s miraculous working in our lives. When the appointed time comes, the Lord will open the door in a godly way, but if you refuse to move or take the step, the glory will not manifest and the blessings will not unfold.

Don’t Be Discouraged!
The closer you are to the glory and goodness of God, the nearer you are to the appointed time of blessings of God, the more the discouragement from the devil, the more distraction from the devil. Though you may see nothing working or changing well, but behind the scene God is working miraculous great things for your good so don’t be discouraged to walk away from your glorious destiny.

Don’t Let The Devil Deceive You
Imagine while God is filling your car’s empty tank behind the scene, and because you are not seen it, the devil offers you a bicycle, and then you abandon the car that is taking you to your glorious destiny and follow devil’s distraction to destruction? That will be horrible.

Those who in haste collect the key of prosperity from the devil will only use it to open the door of problems and eternal destruction.
As long you remain in the Lord and refuse the sinful offers from the devil, you shall soon see the glory of God permanent in your life because God is working everything for your good and for His glory.

“Therefore the LORD will wait, that He may be gracious to you; And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For the LORD is a God of justice; Blessed are all those who wait for Him.” Isaiah 30:18

Are you ready to rededicate your life to Jesus now or start a new life? Then repent! Confess all your sins, forsake them all and ask Jesus to forgive, cleanse you and save you.

Christianity EtcThe Falling Away Of The Elects by FreshGreen(op): 5:18am On Nov 23, 2016
THE GREAT FALLING AWAY OF THE ELECTS
(The more you are feeding on the wrong meal, the more you have appetite for it. The same with the prosperity preachers and motivational speakers - they are sweet, cheap poison to your spiritual life.)

When they started in US in late 60s headed by Normal Vincent Peale, many saw them as strange, when it was imported into Nigeria by Idahosa & co in early 80s, many saw them as fake prosperity preachers, but now, many have are falling victim of them, including the careless elects, including the covenant church like RCCG whose foundation was on old time religion, including many brothers and sisters, whose spiritual foundation in their secondary school and college fellowships was laid on holiness and hunger for heavenly things.

But now the careless fallen elect churches, ministers, brothers and sisters have become more worldly than the people of the world.

Can you remember how you started your Christian life far back then? Can you? Do you remember how you started the ministry then? The standard, the humility, the simplicity, the commitment in prayer, personal evangelism and the watchfulness in all things with YOUR PROMISES NEVER TO COMPROMISE THE SAME STANDARD?

Then you saw people who lived the type of life you are living now and the type of ministry you are running now as backsliders and false ministers, you remember?

But now you have fallen victim of the modern gospel, and the worst part is that you are unaware of your falling. You are celebrated, you are celebrating but heaven is weeping over you. You are now rich materially and financially but poor spiritually. You are now populous, popular and even powerful but your old standard of purity has gone.

God is calling you into repentance back to your first love for Him. That standard of holiness and righteousness you believed and preached in 1980s, when you were in school fellowship, that high commitment of prayer and evangelism - that woe is unto you if you don't preach to somebody in a day, that simple lifestyle of dressing, of humility and giving to people around, all these have not changed, God does not change any of standards which you knew far back then, it is you who have changed. But He is calling you back, because we are in the last hour of the end.

Go back to where you started, your first love, your foundation, your Bethel - where God met you and called you, where He was pleased with you and covenanted with you. You are among the false modern, motivational and prosperity preachers, but that was not your calling, you are an elect; you have now mixed with this modern, falling church as a committed member, worker and even minister, have you forgotten where you came from, you standard and knowledge of God of old? You are an elect, not to perish with these modern end time churches.

Repent, rededicate your self to God and come out from among them, yes, do that NOW!

(I am not saying you should go back to a church, but to your fellowship of old with God.)

GOD IS WAITING FOR YOU WHERE HE STARTED WITH YOU!

Revelation 2:5, "Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.

Christianity EtcHow People (believers) Are Going To Hell Fire With 911 Buses by FreshGreen(op): 8:32am On Nov 22, 2016
HOW PEOPLE (BELIEVERS) ARE GOING TO HELL FIRE WITH 911 BUSES
- Elizabeth, Italy.

My revelation goes like this:- The Angel of the living God came to me and said, let us visit a place and suddenly we appeared in an office where we saw four men in the office and they were talking but I was not hearing what they were saying and they also did not see I and the Angel so, the Angel introduced the men like this (the G.O from the head quarter, the pastor of a branch and the other two pastors accusing the branch pastor) then, the Angel said these are the things that are happening in the churches, that when the Lord of the church comes in or when He send His Angels to the church, the people don't see or recognize His presence because they are busy fighting for positions, too occupied with the things of the world and the Lord or His Angel will take their leave.

Then the Angel said lets go and we went down the stairs,immediately, we appeared in a street here in Europe and immediately, we appeared in a busy road in Lagos Nigeria called (IKORODU ROAD) and we both stood in the middle (opposite Obanikoro bus stop) watching vehicles coming from Surulere and heading towards Maryland and there were these five 911 buses which came one after the other and in front of each bus, was written in capital letter DESTINATION (HELL FIRE very bold), by the side of the bus was this Bible verse Matt. 7:13 "Broad way leads to destruction"

When the first bus came, it was already filled with passengers from where it was coming from (each bus has two conductors) but the two conductors were still calling passengers and people were fighting to enter into the bus (they spoke with different languages) , the people entered through the two entrance doors of the bus, through the windows and some climbed the bonnet and entered through the wind screen; now let me describe the demons:- the one driving the bus has many hands with one he cleanse the side mirror, with one he adjust the side mirror, with one he cleanse the wind screen and with two, he was holding the steering he was ready to move and with one he was holding the gear, his eye balls were reddish.

One of the demon conductor has camel skin and was having dread on his head; the second demon was very black has the structure of a frog and they were both calling passengers like this:- hell fire! hell fire!! hell fire!!! the Rapture is about to take place, the Son of the Most High God is about to come, there is no time on our side hell hell! hell!! hell fire!!!! ( these was what the demons were shouting of at each 911 bus that came and as people were entering, these demons were mocking them and laughing this kind of mockery laugh)

But when the third bus came, it was filled with women, some were carrying loads on their heads, some on their backs, some were carrying bags, even some of them lapped themselves and only four men entered into the bus, among these four men was the two pastors we saw in the office of a church that was reporting the branch pastor so when these pastors met us were I and the Angel was standing, I told them to see how people are entering those buses with the bold writing DESTINATION:- HELL FIRE but before I could finish speaking, the two of them crossed the road and the older man entered through the window while the young man followed those one entering through the wind screen, I was calling them but the older one told me that they can't wait; that they would rather enter this bus which they have seen than to wait for the ones to come later.

Then I heard people calling my name from the sky that I should not cross the road and they said that there were you are (which is here on earth) is where we attached importance to positions like REV., BISHOP, PASTOR,EVANGELIST e.t.c but there (in Heaven) where they are, there is nothing like that because everybody is call brother or sister so it was then I realized that my feet were glued to where I was standing and I said to them I can't even move my feet from here. When these buses come, it will enlarge itself to enable it contains more passengers.

Now, when the fourth bus came, the Angel told me to call the attention of one of the conductors and I beckoned to the one at the back of the bus so he gave me his attention but did not leave where he was but we could communicate and I asked him why were they calling passengers into the bus then he spoke like this:- Satan the devil our master asked us to bring more souls to hell and that there is no time on our side because the Rapture is about to take place and the Son of the Most High God is about to come.

Let me describe the demon that I spoke with:- he has frog structure very big almost the height of the 911 bus, has green eye balls, his teeth were sharp and rusted like old nails also, the teeth were stained with blood so when he finished talking with me he laughed this kind of mockery laugh and continued to call passengers into the bus.

Now when the fifth bus came, the Angel called my name and asked if I know the people that was entering those buses then I answered and said, no sir then I asked him who are they? then he said that these are believers who because of one! one!! sin are entering these buses (sins like:- unforgiveness, pride, arrogant, lies, hatred, anger, gossip, unloving, strive e.t.c) he also said that in the Gospel of Mark chapter 16 he did not mention any verse that those who did not accept our Lord Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior are already condemned he also said that in 2 Timothy 2:24-26 that, the servant of the living God must not be quarrelsome; he then stretched out his right hand and asked can't you see them quarreling and fighting among themselves?, he said again the servant of the living God must be gentle, have self-control and he asked again, are they gentle or do they have self- control? he then said to me write it down and share it with your brethren.

God bless as you have read. Do you know Hell was originally created for Satan and his agents, but they are drawing and deceiving many to go there with they. Please do not go hell, do not wait in sin until you land in hell. You need to surrender all to Jesus Christ and your name be written in the Book of Life. All you need to do is to repent, confess and start a new life in Jesus Christ.

Also if you have given your life to Jesus in the past, there is need for you to rededicate your life in self examination and reconsecration.

Christianity EtcUnwanted Pregnancy VS Miracle Pregnancy by FreshGreen(op): 2:09am On Nov 21, 2016
Unwanted Pregnancy VS Miracle Pregnancy
The reason many kill their unborn babies is because they say the unborn baby is “unwanted pregnancy” due to the time the pregnancy was conceived or the conditions surrounding the pregnancy. This term is actually originated from the pit of hell to lead many to the part of destruction of abortion. The truth is that there is nothing called unwanted pregnancy, either you plan for it or not, either it comes in an honorable way in marriage or through a shameful sexual relationship or even by raping. The truth is that God is the Creator of human being, the Bible says, “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward.” Psalm 127:4.

A friend of mine in New York explained to me about her son, that when she and her husband got married, they planned not to have a child early, so they did birth control (Family planning), but yet she got pregnant, and such is termed “unwanted pregnancy” that is a pregnancy you don’t want or plan for when it comes. They were wise to keep the pregnancy and she gave birth to a boy, James. That boy is their only child till today.

The Bible warns us to be wise, and not to be ignorant of the deception of the devil. When you have unplanned pregnancy in your marriage, devil calls it unwanted pregnancy but God calls it a miracle pregnancy. When people have pregnancy as a result of ungodly relationship, that is not unwanted pregnancy, it is a miracle pregnancy; God has a special purpose for the child. Anytime you have unexpected pregnancy, you should thank God for the miracle, it’s a blessing. Mary didn’t plan for the pregnancy of Jesus Christ, that could be termed unwanted pregnancy today.
Christianity EtcThank God, I Was Not Aborted by FreshGreen(op): 1:41am On Nov 21, 2016
THANK GOD, I WAS NOT ABORTED
Today (November 20th) is my birthday, and as i was praising God this morning, this thought came to my mind, “Do you know if it were to be among the “so called” Christian family today, you would have been aborted?” The reason being that my brother was only five months old when I was conceived. Many would have called such pregnancy “unwanted” and terminated it, but thank God for my mother, she didn’t abort me. Recently, my mother spent about 11 months with my family and traveled back home few months ago, if she had aborted me, I would not be a blessing to her but a cause of guilty conscience. My brother and I spent good time playing Table Tennis today, and his family and my family had a good time today. I know it wasn’t easy for my mother and my brother when I was conceived, but today we are blessings to one another. It was not by mistake I was conceived then.

Abortion is one of the worst evil being committed today; it is not just a sin, but an unimaginable evil, for parents to use their hands to kill their own child, that is abortion. That your hands are stained with innocent blood of your own child that is what is called abortion. You know how some wicked parents were sacrificing their innocent children for rituals in the old time, so it is in this modern time that people are sacrificing, killing their innocent babies because of their conveniences in the name of abortion.

When Did Life Start?
This is an unnecessary debate among people today, some think pregnancy is not yet a human life or human being, and such is a wrong notion the devil is using to convince many to commit the sin of abortion. From the light of the word of God, human life starts from conception in the womb. God created you and you became human being at conception, not when you were born. The Bible says, “And the LORD said to her: “Two nations are in your womb, two peoples shall be separated from your body.” Genesis 25:23. God called the pregnancy “two nations” meaning everything a child will become starts from the womb. God didn’t call the pregnancy “embryo” or “Fetus”. In Isaiah 49:5, It says ““And now the LORD says, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant” So if a child in the womb is to become a nation or a prophet or whatever the child will become by God, that is what He calls the child in the womb, and when people decide to abort a pregnancy for any reason, before God they are not just aborting a fetus or an embryo, but a nation, a prophet, a pastor, an evangelist, a doctor, a lawyer, a successful business person, a destiny.

Job said, “Did not He who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same One fashion us in the womb?” Job 31:15. We are made as a human being in the womb, not at birth. From the womb, God can fill a child with His Holy Spirit, He anointed us for the purpose He created us right from the womb. “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5.

Unwanted Pregnancy VS Miracle Pregnancy
The reason many kill their unborn babies is because they say the unborn baby is “unwanted pregnancy” due to the time the pregnancy was conceived or the conditions surrounding the pregnancy. This term is actually originated from the pit of hell to lead many to the part of destruction of abortion. The truth is that there is nothing called unwanted pregnancy, either you plan for it or not, either it comes in an honorable way in marriage or through a shameful sexual relationship or even by raping. The truth is that God is the Creator of human being, the Bible says, “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward.” Psalm 127:4.

A friend of mine in New York explained to me about her son, that when she and her husband got married, they planned not to have a child early, so they did birth control (Family planning), but yet she got pregnant, and such is termed “unwanted pregnancy” that is a pregnancy you don’t want or plan for when it comes. They were wise to keep the pregnancy and she gave birth to a boy, James. That boy is their only child till today.

The Bible warns us to be wise, and not to be ignorant of the deception of the devil. When you have unplanned pregnancy in your marriage, devil calls it unwanted pregnancy but God calls it a miracle pregnancy. When people have pregnancy as a result of ungodly relationship, that is not unwanted pregnancy, it is a miracle pregnancy; God has a special purpose for the child. Anytime you have unexpected pregnancy, you should thank God for the miracle, it’s a blessing. Mary didn’t plan for the pregnancy of Jesus Christ, that could be termed unwanted pregnancy today.

Pro-Death, Not Pro-Choice
Pro-life supporters are the people who stand against abortion. Then another people called themselves pro-choice, that a woman should choose either to preserve pregnancy or abort it. But the truth is that nothing is called pro-choice, it is actually pro-death. When you support abortion for any reason, you support killing of innocent babies, you support destroying destinies, then you are pro-death. In this life, you are either pro-life or pro-death, there is nothing called pro-choice.

In Summary:
Terminating a pregnancy is not just an abortion or evacuation; it is killing your own baby - that is the record in heaven.

Abortion is not just aborting a fetus or an embryo; it is aborting a human’s destiny, a nation, a generation. If my mother had aborted me because my elder brother was 5 months old then, she would aborted my destiny, my ministry, my children’s children, children in just one moment.

The woman that commits abortion, the man that suggests or supports it, the family and friends that support it, the medical people that carries out the abortion, the companies that sell abortion pills, the people that sell the pills, all together are charged before God has murderers. So don’t be surprised to see sin of murder in your record in heaven.

There is nothing called unwanted pregnancy, such statement is originated by Satan, there is only miracle pregnancy, a pregnancy you didn’t plan for, anytime you have such pregnancy, thank God for the miracle. You don’t plan for a miracle, it’s God that performs miracles as He wishes and when He wishes.

If you have committed, supported or done abortion before, you are a murderer; you need forgiveness just as people who killed their children for rituals. No pretense, no excuse. Jesus Christ can forgive you if you sincerely realize and repent.

Christianity EtcWhat I Saw When I Died by FreshGreen(op): 8:13am On Nov 18, 2016
....I had an accident in which I died. As death came over me, I felt everything become dark. I found myself walking through a dark tunnel, and some kind of being was taking me. While we walked in this cold and dark tunnel, I began to hear horrific screams and moans, and an intense fear was growing inside of me. I knew that, although my body was already dead, I was somehow still alive in this place.

I saw large snakes moving all around, and all the people were crying out for water. Soon we arrived at an open plateau, which had many chambers and divisions, each contained different people inside. I began to cry out with terror, begging God for mercy. "Lord, remember my life! Have mercy!" Sheer terror was gripping my soul, and my whole life was passing before my eyes. As we approached some door, I shouted again, "Have mercy on me my Lord; have mercy on me! I beg you to help me! Help me Lord!!"

We then went to a place where I saw a woman was sitting in a rocking chair. There were still terrifying moans coming from all over that place. At first, she seemed ok, but then her body transformed into a witch, and she screamed in agony, burning in flames. She begged for mercy, but the Lord said to me "The wages of sin is death, and those who arrive in this place will never get out again." (Romans 6:23)

The Lord showed me many disobedient people, many who were once part of a Christian Church. They were crying out and begging for mercy, but there was no mercy. Mercy could only be found while a person is still alive on Earth. Once people are dead, mercy cannot be reached anymore, as it says, "it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27)

Jesus also showed me a place with some kind of boiling oil, and there were people suffering inside, burning in flames and trying to get out. But demons would throw them back in.
We walked until we came to a place with people that had once listened to the word of God, but never wanted to repent.
I also saw a missionary in Hell. He was there because he asked for money to open a mission in Africa, but he kept half the money for himself. Now he begs for mercy and another chance to return the money that wasn’t his. When he saw that Jesus could not help him, he cursed Jesus.

I saw people that were once inside the church praising God. Now they only cry out for mercy for their un-repented sins, they lost their chance to repent after they died. I saw pastors there who robbed tithes and offerings from their churches. They also begged to undo all their bad works, but there was no more chance.

Those who die without Jesus Christ go to hell, and those who die with Jesus Christ go to Heaven. Many people believe that dying is just stopping this existence. (Annihilationism) But at death, your real life begins, either in God’s Glory or in everlasting condemnation and shame. (Daniel 12:2) You are making that choice right now. We must all carefully meditate on where we will spend eternity. Do you want to spend eternity in Hell or in God’s glory? It’s your choice.

The Road to Hell
The Lord said, "Look at this wide street." I saw a street where a multitude of believers were walking, and they were even carrying bibles. I saw some praying and others were singing praises.

Many Christians have some hatred or bitterness in their heart toward their brothers; and may even skip church because of that brother. But when the pastor asks the church, “How many of you love the Lord?” They say "Amen!" But the Bible says that those who hate their brothers are like murders, and no murder can come in the Kingdom of Heaven. It is written, anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, 'Raca,' is answerable to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, 'You fool!' will be in danger of the fire of hell. (Matt 5:22) These brothers will deeply regret that when the Lord returns.

The Bible tells us, Do not hate your brother in your heart. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in his guilt. Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD. (Leviticus 19:17-18) It’s so sad when those serve the Lord, don't make it into Heaven. You need to seriously meditate on this and ask, “Am I ready for the Lord? Am I really doing the will of God? Is my life pleasing to God?” You still have time to turn your heart to God and escape Hell.
Some people don’t care about where they are going, they only want to enjoy this life. But I tell you, spending time with Jesus, not some woman is enjoying life. Spending time in the Lord's house, not a bar, that’s life. We need to ask God for Mercy for those who are still waking on the road of death and sin.

In Hell, we saw many who thought they were living holy while on Earth, but now they were just begging for mercy and another chance. My soul ached so much for them. We saw a woman who was acting like she was reading the Word of God, and preaching about John 3:16. She said: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Jesus said she was there "Because she could never forgive her husband; she never managed to forgive her husband." (Matt 6:14-15) This woman had been shepherding an evangelical church for 35 years, but now in Hell, she is begging for one more chance to forgive her husband.

The bible warns us, settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. (Matt. 5:25) and Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. (Matt. 5:7)
Forgiveness is something special, and that woman never forgave. After 35 years of hard work for God, she lost it all in the end. Meditate on this, and make sure you forgive all. How do you want to spend eternity?

Lying to God
It might sound crazy, but many Christians wind up in Hell because of lying. Christians often just nonchalantly lie in Church, and think nothing of it. The pastor may ask them a question, and a member just lies to them. But we must remember that a simple lie is what caused God to kill Ananias and Sapphira while in Church. (Acts 5:3-10)

If you're a lukewarm Christian, backsliding, or living a double life, bow you head right now before God, and beg for forgiveness, be willing to turn away from evil deeds. If you don't know Jesus, pray now, and ask Him for forgiveness, ask Him into your heart, accept Him as your savior.

Many of us stand before the altar of God full of pride and vainglory. Many, who sing praises to God, begin to be full of pride. Many of God's servants who preach the word, and are used mightily by God, begin to think that they are overly important? Many people who work in deliverance also get full of pride? I want to tell you that God see all, and knows your heart.

We continued walking until we arrived at some a kind of waiting room. We saw a demon that was shouting, and other demons were presenting themselves before him. Two of them were in the form of beautiful women. Their job was to destroy ministries, and lead ministers into sin. Those who serve the Lord, must be careful of satan’s traps. satan wants to destroy your life, and he can use those people who are close to you, those who do not walk close to Jesus. They can be instruments of satan.

Satan also has demons that are disguised as men. They go into churches in search for young ladies and even married women, to lead them into sin, destroying marriages and lives.

Children in Hell
Even today, I still feel pain and terror in my soul when I remember that there are even young children in Hell. I saw some between the ages of 12 and 14 years old. They also regret many things they did while on earth. Many Christians ignorantly say that children can never be lost, because they are so young. But I tell you, if a child can distinguish between good and evil, and they are not walking in the ways of the Lord, they also can arrive in that place of torment. (Prov. 22:6)

In the bible it says "I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books.” (Rev. 20:12) All persons that can comprehend between good and evil will have to stand before the Lord; nothing is hidden from the eyes of the Lord.

We continued walking until we came to a place that was similar to stadium. There were demons there laughing at lost souls. They were mocking them, and tormenting those who were made in God's image.

The people there desperately thirst for water, but there is none. They regret even the day they were born. But the worst feeling is for those who knew Jesus, but then walked away from Him. If you have walked away from Jesus, if you no longer follow His ways, today is the day to come back! Don't be ashamed of what your friends or anyone else may say.
You must know that just because you claim to be a Christian, you can still be unclean before God, if you keep sinning. I was personally being used by God, but still had vainglory in my heart. (Matt 7:21-23) There is still time to repent and renew your heart and mind.

If you're a lukewarm Christian, backsliding, or living a double life, bow you head right now before God, and beg for forgiveness, be willing to turn away from evil deeds. If you don't know Jesus, pray now, and ask Him for forgiveness, ask Him into your heart, accept Him as your Lord.

It is time for you to run to the presence of God; and look for salvation. Do not look for a church that makes you feel good; look for a church where the Spirit of the Lord moves and repent of all your sins! It is time for deep repentance; time to cry out to the Lord and run to Jesus. If you have sins that you haven't stopped, your soul is in DANGER, because the Bible says that Jesus will come as a thief in the night, (1 Thess. 5:2) Are you ready or not?
- Carmelo Brenes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
My dear friend, why will you go to hell because of the pursuit of this world? Because of the pressure of this world? Because of position of this world? Because of popularity, ego, fame or possession of this world? Do you want to play so stupid and fooled by Satan that you will live how many years on earth and spend more than 1 billion years in torment of demons and forever? You don't want to face the shame of men but you are ready to face the shame of demons? You don't human, temporal pain but you are ready to suffer demonic and eternal pain? Because of money? What will you gain this life that you will loose your soul forever and ever and ever and ever, never to see light, never to see joy, peace, ever thirsty and never get a drop of water, urine or sweat to drink? And you want to be that stupid because of this present passing world? WHAT WILL JUSTIFY YOUR GOING TO HELL? YOU URGENTLY NEED TO TOTALLY SURRENDER ALL TO JESUS NOW BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Dear Christian, you have the knowledge of God, but where are you standing? You are a Christian and sinner at the same time, you are god fearing and ungodly at the same time, you are up and down, hot and cold Christian and worldly. You think those things do not matter? Satan is telling to bother less about your eternity, that "it is by God's mercy, so till then" Don't you know that you need to settle and surrender all now? You want to cover the sin, postpone the restitution, keeping doing that because your pastor does not against it? You don't want to face the shame? You need to be wise and surrender before Satan will waste in hell after all your knowledge and serving God!

Beloved, you have experienced salvation and serving God, but that little stain of unconfessed sin, unforgiveness, hated, care of this world, that little lie, anger, etc will now take you to hell after all your spiritual experiences and service to God? Will you be that fool?

Let's settle all now before it is too late. People are dying everyday without notice, Some people were on facebook last month, read our messages, but rejected, postponed and died. Now, no single second for a second chance. Will you allow that to happen to you? Rapture can happen any second from now and what will be your portion? Why now settle everything now?

Christianity EtcSolution For Premarital And Extramarital Sex by FreshGreen(op): 12:09am On Nov 15, 2016
SOLUTIONS FOR PREMARITAL & MARITAL UNFAITHFULNESS

P R E M A R I T A L - Don't Mess With Costly Mistake
If in a Christian marital relationship, either of them is demanding for premarital sex, it means there is a mistake somewhere, it is either the person who demands premarital sex is a mistake to the other person or the other person is making mistaking by going into marital relationship with somebody who demands for premarital sex; it may also be that the person who demands for premarital sex backslides along the way during the relationship or the other person got saved along the way during the relationship and then refuses premarital sex. Premarital sex is a fornication of the highest order, and fornication or fornicator should not even be mentioned among the genuine children of God.

It is a mistake for a child of God to get into marital relationship with a fornicator who demands premarital sex. If you are a child of God, you don’t go into relationship with a brother or sister who is a fornicator; it is a serious mistake of life. Here is what the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 5:9, “I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators.”

It is a serious mistake to lose your salvation and relationship with God because you don’t want to lose a relationship with a partner who demands for premarital sex, because it is even a mistake to get into relationship with such person in the first instance. When by mistake a child of God finds herself or himself in a marital relationship with a wrong person, the right solution is to end the relationship immediately. It is a mistake to think God will save a fornicator along the way or the fornicator may change, because it is a serious mistake to base your life on probability after God has helped you to see the truth clearly.

M A R I T A L - U N F A I T H F U L N E S S : Seek For The Right Solution.

As a married person, if your husband or wife is not genuinely saved, though they may be committed Christians or ministers in the church, and you discover that he or she is committing extra-marital sex, what is the solution? The solution is not to fight with the person, though you can challenge, the solution is not to divorce, the solution is not to fight the sinful partner outside, the only solution is to pray for the salvation of his or her soul, preach to the person by your own way of life and patiently wait on the Lord.

SALVATION, THE SOLUTION
I have come across several women whose husbands are unfaithful in marriage, sleeping with other women outside; most of them are seeking for wrong solutions, some are praying wrong prayer that God should detach the husband from the strange woman; that God should destroy the strange women or that God should take the mind of the husband away from the particular strange woman outside. None of these prayers is the right prayer for the right solution, because to unfaithful husband, there will always be a strange woman out there.

The solution for unfaithfulness in marriage is salvation of soul, when your husband is genuinely saved, he will not commit adultery anymore. The major prayer to pray for such person is that God should save him or her. But if you yourself are not saved, then there is a compounded problem. You need to get saved yourself, because sin is sin before God; the person who commits adultery and other partner that usually gets angry, shout, rude, and not submissive are the same before God, no difference.

When you are saved, you can pray for the salvation of your husband or wife and divine solution will follow.

LOVE, PRAYER & PATIENCE
The three in one solution for the critical solution in your marriage, no matter how terrible or tough is: LOVE – you love your spouse; for better understanding on what this love means, please read 1 Corinthians 13:1-8, please read it.

PRAYER – you prayer for the salvation of your spouse, if he or she backslides, you pray for the restoration. Pray without ceasing, until something happens. When a saved person earnestly prays for the salvation of another, the answer will definitely come through. Romans 10:1, “Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.”

PATIENCE – you stay patient with your unsaved spouse, you know God was patient with you also before you eventually got saved, so do the same thing with your spouse. Believe that God is using you to save your spouse, and so patiently wait for its manifestation. “For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.” 1 Corinthians 7:14.

Christianity EtcThe Rich Man And Lazarus by FreshGreen(op): 6:04am On Nov 10, 2016
THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS
LUKE 16:25, "But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented."

At the end, the rich man found himself in Hell and Lazarus the poor, found himself in paradise. Father Abraham said about the rich man, that he had received his “good things” while on earth and Lazarus, his evil things while on earth. The question is, “Was the riches this man had were the good things that made him to go to hell?” Also, "Can we say the poverty of Lazarus were the evil things that earned him paradise?" The answer is NO!

The rich man didn’t go to hell just because he was a rich man, Abraham was a rich man also, and Abraham is in paradise. On the other hand, Lazarus didn’t go to paradise simply because he was poor; there are many poor sinners in hell.

Abraham said the rich man was in hell because in his lifetime, he received his “good things”. He also said that Lazarus is in paradise because in his lifetime, he received his “evil things”. Both men received their own things in their lifetime, and afterlife, they were rewarded accordingly.

THE GOOD THINGS
It's not wrong for us to have good things on earth, because good things are good as long it is godly. But the “good things” the rich man received were the gain of unrighteousness which made him rich, and “evil things” Lazarus received were the persecutions and forbearance for righteousness and for the sake of righteousness.

It’s possible for you to be rich through unrighteous means and enjoy your life till you die, as many are forgoing righteousness for the sake of riches today. But what will it profits a man if he gains the world and loses his soul? The riches, wealth, opportunities, jobs, contracts, allowances, money, properties, certificates, visas, business connections, positions, votes, positions, profits that you gain through unrighteous means (lying, falsification, malpractices, stealing, bribing, cheating, etc ) are the good things which you received in your lifetime that will qualify you for eternal destruction, to hell at the end of your lifetime on earth.

Any good thing you get through a bad means will make you groan in eternity like the rich man.The good things which you gained through unrighteous means and made you rich in your lifetime will create your eternal doom and suffering after your lifetime is expired on earth.

You can gain a lot of riches and many good things on earth by ungodly and unrighteous ways and have wonderful time in life, and enjoy yourself to the full, but at the expense of your soul and eternity. Good things like nice house, beautiful car, easy life and luxurious life; you get what you want, you eat what you want, you drive the car you like, and you travel all over the world. Is that not good and splendid? The Bible said the rich man "was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day." What a splendid and sweet life! He was wearing the best designers, and lived the best quality life of his generation. He did a lot of good things to his life and body, but not to his soul. Like this rich man, those who get good things without being godly, will regret at the end.

THE EVIL THINGS
It’s possible to be poor because of righteousness till the person gets to heaven. Lazarus was a child of God and he served God wholeheartedly, but he was poor. What it means is that, it better to remain righteous, uncompromising in Jesus and be poor than to compromise and gain wealth through lying and ungodly means. Everybody may be doing that to get job or wealth, because everybody wants to be rich, but only few will stand for righteousness than unrighteous riches. Proverbs 19:22, ".....And a poor man is better than a liar."

Does that means Lazarus didn’t know his right in the Lord as many preachers claim that it is the right of every child of God to be rich? Some preachers even go to the extend of preaching that if you are a poor Christian, you are under curse. But if you check most of their rich members, they are more like this rich man in the Bible. The modern Christianity gospel preaches that it is a must to be rich, but in the Christianity of the Bible, riches good but not a must, there are only two things Jesus made as under a must for every heavenly minded Christian, and they are holiness and evangelism. Holiness is under a must if you want to see God at the end, because without holiness no man shall see God; and evangelism is a must, in fact Paul said woe is unto him if he failed to preach the Gospel to others.


Can we also say Lazarus was a lazy man as a result of his poverty? NO! Lazarus was not poor because he was lazy but he preferred to remain poor than to compromise holiness; he chose to be poor than to change figure, he accepted to be poor than to bribe for contracts or any good thing of this life. You can mock Lazarus for being poor, you can mock him for being a poor Christian, but it is a matter of time because this present life is a matter of time.

THE BLESSINGS OF ABRAHAM
In Christianity today, we claim the blessing of Abraham as a reason for every child of God to be rich, that is great, but the blessings of Abraham is more than the passing riches of this world, Abraham's blessing was much more than financial blessing and material stuff. Lazarus was a son of Abraham, in fact, when he died, he was right at the bosom of Abraham, yet he was poor on earth. That means Abraham blessings are not just physical, they are spiritual blessings - justification in Jesus Christ. God can choose to make any of His children financially rich and He may also choose not.

It’s not a must for the child of God to be rich financially and materially, but it’s a must to be rich towards God. Jesus never promised financial prosperity to His followers, since no place in the Gospel books or throughout the teachings and episodes of the Apostles, and in the book of Revelation that financial or material prosperity was promised to those who follow and serve Christ.

It’s not a sin for a child of God to be rich, but it’s not a must, as many preachers are claiming. Financial riches and wealth is so minor and additional that a genuine child of God and minister of God will not focus his attention on it. The priority of a serious minded Christian is to live according to God's word and fulfill God's will on earth.

The temporal "good things" are not as important as the eternal good things. If you allow the good things of this world to distract you from serving God, if you allow the good things of this world to take away your salvation and integrity in Christ, you are making yourself another "rich man" of this generation who had his "good things" and ended up in hell of eternal torment.

Do not give what you need forever for what you need for few days. Surrender all to Jesus and serve Him with whatever you have, no matter what!

Are you ready to rededicate your life to Jesus now or start a new life? Then repent! Confess all your sins, forsake them all and ask Jesus to forgive, cleanse you and save you. Please click on this link and read on how to be genuinely saved and start new life in Jesus and pray as directed

Christianity Etc7 Tips On How To Overcome Temptations & Addicted Sins by FreshGreen(op): 11:54pm On Nov 07, 2016
7 TIPS ON HOW TO OVERCOME TEMPTATIONS & ADDICTED SINS

As a Christian, after you genuinely give your life to Jesus and become a new person in Him, your soul is saved and washed by the blood of Jesus Christ , your conscience is cleansed by His blood and your spirit is restored in connection with God. But your body is not affected by the spiritual transformation. When you are saved, you will not see any change of color or stature in your body as a result of the salvation of your soul. It’s the same unaffected body that will want to drag back you into sin, into old life, because your body has nothing to lose, your body has no heaven to go, your body is a mortal and dust. Your body is temporal, it’s earthly and will disappear by reason of time. It is that same body that the devil uses to drag people back to sin after they are saved. The body, your flesh, influenced by Satan, will demand contrary to the Spirit of God inside you, will want you to please it and displease God. This flesh, your body, brings temptation and want to retain the ungodly pleasure it is used to, and that is addicted sin and temptation in your new life in Christ Jesus. Addicted sins are the sinful lifestyles, things or attitude we were used to before we became born again. And they want to come over again in our new lives in Jesus. And temptation, it is ungodly suggestions of Satan into your mind, simple!

The purpose of temptation is to make us sin against God and against our own souls for destruction. The object of temptation is from outside, but the desire and suggestion is from within. So then, temptation is a seduction to sin, either old addicted sin or new general, common sins. Temptation comes on a daily bases and on different bases; your personal relationship with God depends on how you overcome temptations. We need to know that temptation itself is not a sin, either from within by our thought or from without through people or things, it is falling into temptation that becomes sin; it is also a sin to get or go close to the appearance of sin. It is sin to go or get close to what you know may lead to sin by using vain boldness which is tempting God and the Bible commands us not to tempt God. Temptation comes from within or without, from your mind, your body, your feeling; from people, from Satan; pressure, persuasion or persecution, but the good news is that the power lies on you to decide, to sign or silent the temptation; that is your power of decision. Here are 7 tips that will always help us to overcome every form of temptation or addiction on our ways:

(1) HOLD YOUR PEACE AND SEE THE TEMPTATION FADES AWAY
The undiscovered truth about sin is that behind every sin in life is a demon, satanic spirit that inspires people to that sin. Every persuasion and pressure to sin comes from these assigned demons; they use people, our feeling, minds and flesh to persuade us. The real image was made clear when Satan was tempting Jesus in the wilderness, Jesus was seeing Satan clearly because Jesus could see everything. We may not see Satan or his demons when they come to persuade us to sin, but we should do what Jesus did. When this pressure of the addicted sins or persuasion to sin come, it will be as if you cannot survive it, as if you cannot do without it, you know what? Just hold your peace and look beyond the people or the objects of the temptation and do as Jesus did: rebuke the demon behind in Jesus name. "Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan!" and the next thing, "Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him." Matthew 4:10, 11.

Don't bother yourself about the pressure within or without, Satan is behind them, pushing them to persuade you. You may feel as if you are so weak to resist, but don't fall anyway. Since you don't use your power, you use the Word of God and name of Jesus to resist Satan who is behind every sin. The pressure to sin, to have sex, to smoke, to lie, to masturbate, etc. will overwhelm your body and feeling as if you will die if you don't do it, it is not so; you just hold your peace with God's word and you will see the feeling going down. The demon of that sin cannot stay long, there is a particular minutes and period of time God permits Satan and his demons to tempt and pressurize us, and thereafter they fades away, if you hold it and resist in that period, and you will overcome. The temptation and pressure to sin can come few minutes and last for few months, it may be an overwhelming thought or pressure for lust of the flesh, notion for lust of the eyes, or temptation for pride and worldly cares.

Now, here is the truth, this pressure or temptation for the particular sin maybe coming every day, it may be apportioned for few months, and no matter how much you pray, the thought or pressure may not stop. What you need to be praying for daily is grace and the Blood of Jesus to purify your heart, and as long you don’t give in, it will soon fade away and you overcome. That is the truth about temptation and addicted sins.
James 1:12, "Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him"

(2) TAKE A SITUATION AT A TIME
When temptation comes in an overwhelming manner, the devil will whisper to you, “Look, you are so weak, you cannot survive this. Even if you resist it now, what about tomorrow? What about next week? What about next month? Look at yourself, pretending. You can't make it, it is better to surrender now, God will understand." That is a plain lie from the pit of hell; the truth is that when you overcome it now, you will overcome it later. Each victory will grant you more strength against the next temptation. Take it at a time; God who helps you to overcome this will help you better to overcome the next one. Don't be bothered by tomorrow temptation, for grace comes when the temptation comes. "No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:12-14

(3) THINK THE RIGHT WAY!
The beginning of falling into temptation is by thinking about the benefits of the temptation. So, don’t think about the benefits you will enjoy in that temptation, but think about the Word of God, think about the displeasure the temptation will bring to your Lord and Savior, think about the destruction the temptation will bring on your destiny, think about the WORD of God and use it to resist the devil. Devil will suggest the benefits, pleasure, gain, etc in the temptation, but you must reject such and think about the Word of God and how terrible you will displease your God- displeasing your loving Savior? ….How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” Genesis 39:9

(4) COMPARE!
Compare the magnitude of the consequences, of breaking your promise to God just for the minor/momentary pleasure of the temptation. How will you loose everything just for nothing? Consider your dedication unto God, the grace of God upon your life, the anointing of God, the growing nature of God in your life, the joy of salvation, the peace and presence of God and the confidence of heaven; think about how everything will vanish if you fall into that temptation in which you may not even have a second chance? Satan will present temptation to sin as simple as doing it and going back to Jesus for forgiveness. That yours is to sin and God's is to forgive, that God will understand. All these are satanic devices and you must not be ignorant of them.…..Hebrews 12:15, "looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled; 16 lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. 17 For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears."

(5) ASK YOURSELF!
Ask yourself if the passing benefits of the temptation are enough to make you sin and displease your Savior who loves you so much. Just be sincere with yourself! … How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” Genesis 39:9

(6) RUN!
In every temptation, there is a root of escape, so after you think well, you must run immediately from the scene of the temptation. Don’t wait for another change, run now! Running can be leaving the place immediately, blocking access to the person or object of the temptation, it can be resounding and reaffirming your stand for the Lord, it can also be informing somebody about the temptation (this can be your partner, your parents or pastor. You need to know that when you are struggling with a temptation, sharing with the right person brings relief and help. But if your partner or pastor is the source of the sinful temptation, there is always a right, godly person to share with. Don’t keep it to yourself alone.) Running can also be cutting of interaction, relationship or visitation, it can be destroying or deleting the stuffs that lead to temptation, it can also be excusing yourself from the scene and so on.

Bible says, “Watch & Pray”, it’s not, “pray and watch”. The first thing is to watch, which is running. Watch, not speaking in tongues, not praying and staying there, run for your life! Genesis 39:12, “that she caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me.” But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside."

(7) PRAY ALWAYS!
If running from the appearance of temptation is watching, then praying is praying. Praying for God’s grace, strength, guidance and deliverance from temptation every day even before any temptation comes, since temptation is bound to come our ways. Matthew 6:13, "And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen"
……. then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the Day of Judgment. 2 Peter 2:9
