Righteousness And Life...Through The Gospel · Friday, September 6th 

Pastor Anita

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith… (Romans 1:16-17).

From our opening verse we observe that first, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, that is, the Word of God concerning Jesus Christ, and the salvation that He brought, is the power of God to save men. His power, to bring those who believe out of sin, into the life of righteousness, is encapsulated in the Gospel of His grace. Secondly, His righteousness is also revealed in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Meaning that, there’s no other way to learn about, receive or understand the righteousness of God outside the Gospel.

Then in 2 Timothy 1:10, the Apostle Paul shares another beautiful thought: through the Gospel, life and immortality have been brought to light. What kind of life is he referring to? It’s the God-type of life; the life that makes men sons of God: "…and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life" (1 John 5:11-12).

This is the overcoming life that makes us superior to Satan, darkness, disease, sickness, failure, defeat, and death; it’s a life that’s not subject to poverty. This transcendent life, along with the gift of righteousness, was delivered to us in Christ, through the Gospel.

Confession
  The transcendent life of God and the supernatural effect of His righteousness are working vitally in my spirit, soul, and body! I experience growth, development, progress, deliverance, prosperity, and health because I’m walking in the reality of who I am in Christ, taking full advantage of His grace and awesome presence in my life. Glory to God!

Labaran Maku, pls know I've never called GEJ clueless, nor any other name. Why?

Because Jesus didn't call Herod/Cesar clueless, the apostles never called Herod clueless etc

Why?

Because we decide to pray for our leaders than whine/complain/insult them.

So, let's get to work!

Working on that, you can view the projects done via the youtube link above featuring BLW all stars. it's just too awesome.

The Need For Self-evaluation · Thursday, September
5th

Pastor Chris

Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you…? (2 Corinthians 13:5).

Everyone is the expression of what he or she believes. Your daily life is the loudest voice that gives expression to your belief. As a Christian, therefore, it’s easy for you
to review what you truly believe, and determine whether or not you’re living the authentic Christian life by examining your own life. "What kind of life am I living?" "What have I been like?" "How is the love of God expressed through me?" "How has the Word affected my communication, to manifest the Kingdom of God in humility and in righteousness?"
Have you been putting the Word to work, so the Word
can keep producing results in you? Have you surrendered your will and emotions to the Lordship of the Word? Are you a man or woman of your words? Ponder on these thoughts from time to time as you evaluate your life with the sole purpose of improving the excellence of your character.

There’re people who don’t realize the importance of
being a man or woman of their words; their words don’t
mean anything to them. That’s unfortunate, because the
greatest gift given to man, in his natural life, is the gift
of words; the ability to express himself in words. Your inner personality, the excellence and integrity of your character, are revealed through your words; hence, your
words should be your bond.

The Lord Jesus said, ‘by your words you shall be justified and by your words you shall be condemned’ (Matthew 12:37). One of the ways the world around you can see Jesus in you is through your character, which is often expressed in your words; therefore, maintain godly communication every time and everywhere.

Prayer
I thank you, Father, for giving me your Word, which
gives me the right mind-set and excellent character.
My life is the reflection of your grace, love, truth,
and righteousness, as I live to your glory, in the
Lordship of your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Give it a chance.

Warm regards

idnoble135: There is a thread where you can go recommend any thread. All you need is post a link to the thread. I think it is stickied. The thread should be among the first five in thread in the religious section.

Done!

idnoble135: Thank you Father for this fruit of the Spirit called Patience.
@Gombs, but just recommend it, lets see the reactions, hopefully it hits the front page.

Recommend to who?

idnoble135: Think i saw a thread on the inner city missions about two weeks ago. Why dont you recommend such thread. At least, that should keep some critics' mouth shut.

They'd still hate...but the church would keep matching on. With time, they'd all shut up.

idnoble135: Wow! The partners are really trying. I mean, restoring it back to the whole month's copies and increasing the distribution to 30million is no joke. God bless the partners.

Yeah, Pastor Chris does everything big ALL d time

idnoble135: Not again!

idnoble135: Glory to God. Are this year's free copies for the whole month of some selected days?

For the whole month sir

In almost 53 years since the Independence of Nigeria, much has been said about the over-all impact of leadership in the development of the nation. “Think not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country.” In the light of this, ReachOut Nigeria is being established to awaken the patriotic spirit of every Nigerian citizen and re-align their mental attitude towards nation building irrespective of age, ethnicity or class.

ReachOut Nigeria is a nationwide evangelical campaign that involves the free distribution of ‘Rhapsody of Realities’ daily devotional to people all over the country to celebrate Nigeria's independence. Last year, ReachOut Nigeria 2012 celebrated our great country Nigeria in her 52nd anniversary and as 15 million copies of the 'Rhapsody Realities Daily Devotional' was paid for by partners in the church and distributed free through out the nation. This year an estimated 30million copies will be freely distributed.

Several millions of copies of the best-selling daily devotional (around the world second only to the bible) and Bible-study guide have been distributed in different format in over 232 countries and territories out of an estimated 254 countries and territories of the world, and it is in 196 languages of the world including Afrikaans, Arabic, Cantonese, Croatian, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hindi, Icelandic, Italian, Mandarin, Myanmar, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish,
Swahili...and still counting! New languages are added regularly, making the devotional accessible to many more in different parts of the globe, thus bringing the richness of God’s Word into their lives. Little wonder the devotional, oftentimes, is referred to as the, “Messenger Angel”.

The devotional has been designed to enhance your spiritual growth and development.
You will be refreshed, completely transformed and positioned for a day-to-day experience of success and victory as you go through the life-changing thoughts in this month’s devotional.

Through Reachout Nigeria, positive changes has occurred in numerous cities and villages around the Country.
In Port Harcourt, a major Nigerian city, inmates at the state’s maximum prison were given access to computer training, thanks to the ultra-modern computer training center built by Christ Embassy within the prison’s premises. They also began to enjoy a wholesome spiritual experience at the Christ Embassy Cathedral also built by the ministry.

Beefing Up Security In Lagos And Anambra States.
In Lagos and Anambra States, Christ Embassy helped to improve the state of security by providing equipment for security operatives. In Lagos, security vans were presented to the state government, while in Anambra 35 networked computers were presented to all 35 divisional police offices in the state.

Impacting The Educational Sector
In the area of education, partners in major cities like Lagos and Benin made efforts at improving the lot of students in schools by renovating classrooms and libraries and equipping them with books and computers.
Governor Adams Oshiomole of Edo State poured encomiums on Christ Embassy for organizing charitable
projects across the nation describing the endeavour as
inspiring and worthy of emulation. He commended the Church for championing the cause for change—positive change in Nigeria.

Also, partners in Calabar, Makurdi and Ebonyi rewarded academic excellence amongst students in the states who participated in special debates and quiz competitions organized under the auspices of ReachOut Nigeria 2010.
A Primary School in Bauchi State where pupils sat on the floor to learn, received classroom furniture from members of Christ Embassy Bauchi. The pupils, who also received free notebooks from the partners, now learn more comfortably.

Face-lifting Hospitals/Providing Medical Supplies In Kano State, the partners addressed health issues in the rural communities by supplying Medical Aid andoffering free Medicare to many in some ruralcommunities like Gezawa LGA, where such is above the reach of the average rural dweller. In Nassarawa State, free drugs were presented to citizens of Lafia.
Also making an impact in the health sector, Rhapsody of Realities Partners in Oyo and Ogun states renovated hospitals and supplied them with some medical equipment.
In Lagos State, a symposium was convened to educate motorcyclists on safety and they were provided with vests and crash helmets.
A specially fitted ambulance was also donated to the Lagos State Government as contribution to the development of the Health Sector in the state. Receiving the ambulance on behalf of the Lagos State Governor, the representative Mr. Fola Arthur Worrey said, “This is a case of practical support for a positive ideal. It’s an indication that, beyond the common rhetoric, change must be practical and solid. This ambulance is an evidence of support. On behalf of the Lagos State government and the citizenry, I say “thank you” to Christ Embassy.”

Other projects embarked upon by Christ Embassy Church chapters in marking Reach Out Nigeria
Campaign include: provision of boreholes in several communities across the country, provision of supplies for inmates in prisons, orphanages and remand homes, the renovation and supply of equipment and services for various Police stations in different parts of the country, provision of computers and IT facilities to schools, prisons and police stations etc. …and so
much more!!!

Nigeria has a soul that can be reached and transformed.
That’s the reason for ReachOut Nigeria: To inspire patriotism and build the future we want for our nation.
That future is worth celebrating, and through ReachOut Nigeria 2013, we celebrate the Nigeria we hope for and which we have seen!

You can be a part of it by either participating in free distribution to people around you or sponsor a project or sponsor copies to be distributed freely. Visit the nearest Christ Embassy Church close to you for more details.

God bless you

The "Veil" Removed · Wednesday, September 4th ·

Pastor Chris

But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2 Corinthians 3:15-17).

When men don’t understand the Word of God, it’s because there’s a veil covering their hearts. It’s like what happened with the Law of Moses, in the Old Testament:
the children of Israel couldn’t see the glory beyond the veil. Our opening verse tells us that even until this day, when "Moses," that is, "the Law," is read, that veil is still
present; it’s only taken away in Christ. In other words, when you received salvation in accordance with Romans 10:9, the Lordship of Jesus destroyed the power of darkness over your life and took away the veil from your heart.

At the New Birth, you were catapulted into the Kingdom of Light; the Kingdom of God’s dear Son. Colossians 1:12-13 says, "Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son."

The Holy Spirit accomplished this in your life when He baptized you into Christ: "For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body…" (1 Corinthians 12:13); that body is Christ. Christ is "Light"; so upon the New Birth, the Holy Spirit baptized you into the "Light," and you became awakened to the Fatherhood of God. Thus was the veil removed from your heart to walk in the light of God, and understand spiritual realities.

Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for making me a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light! I pray for the salvation of souls all over the world today; I rebuke the prince of the power of the air, and break his dominion over men’s lives, so that the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ might shine in their hearts, bringing them salvation, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

*unfollows thread

^^
Here we go again



*unfollows thread

Bidam: I think you got my post wrong. I am in agreement.

Twas directed to Benalvino sir


I know you are in sync with the scriptures

^^ oga benalvino, tongues aint prayer, but WE PRAY IN TONGUES

What did Jude mean by "praying in the Holyghost"

Or what paul meant by "Praying in the spirit"

1corithn 14v14-15 AMP

14 For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit [by the Holy Spirit within me] prays, but my mind is unproductive [it bears no fruit and helps nobody].
15 Then what am I to do? I will pray with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will also pray [intelligently] with my mind and understanding; I will sing with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will sing [intelligently] with my mind and understanding also.


Stop shooting urself in the foot

^^ I much agree too but praying in tongues out loud in church or public aint wrong either. Except you were being a nuisance in the given area, eg praying out loud in lecture rooms, etc ie use wisdom to pray depending on the environment you are.

When Paul and Silas were praying in Act 16v25, Luke recorded this

New Living Translation
25 Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and
singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were
listening.


It wasn't a private/quiet/whispering prayer. Luke was outside the prison, how then did he hear the prayer sounds if it wasn't very loud enough?


When Jesu was prayin sef in John 17, how did John record every detail of it if it weren't loud enough.

Bidam: I am really sorry bro,i don't want to sound rude but let me say that when it comes to this subject matter you re so ignorant. And i don't want you to be ignorant concerning spiritual gifts.

As a matter of fact i will be going right now for a ministration,i believe God has given Gombs my brother the grace to handle all your queries.

I will chip in one or two things tomorrow.Stay blessed.

Aii sir, I'd leave them sef...they ask redundant questions and misquote Paul and Jesus.

Candour: My dear bro, Paul expressly said tongues are a sign for unbelivers:

Mark 16v15 Jesus said

17 And these signs will accompany those
who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;


don't you think you are confused and confusing Paul's writings?

he used tongues when preaching to natives of the different places he went for evangelism.

you mean now if God sends me to brazil or saudi arabia to preach, he'd install portuguese or arabic instantly? See mega confusion abeg. Reinhard Boonke has being preaching all over the world, why did he have interpreters in most cases? Is it that God is delaying installing the languages or is it that he's not believed enough?

If he prayed in tongues, its strictly between him and God [s] and he would never have brought it to show off in Church. [/s]

Show off?? Lol
So if I wanna pray in tongues I shd whisper it because I don't want you to think I'm showing off? When paul was saying I speak in tongues more than you all, it wasn't showing off shey?

My bro, u see pastors today spice up their preaching with tongues and some even sing in tongues leaving the congregants confused and bewildered. Am sure u know all these

1 corinth 14v15 NIV
15 What is the outcome then? I will pray with the spirit and I will pray with the mind also; I will sing with the spirit and I will sing with the mind also.

must you argue?

Kenny4lyfe: **Imagine me praying**


Dear heavenly father, please forgive me....
Give me....
**breaks-out with a song**
Holy Ghost!
Do it again.... {You know the rest}!
Then... **falls asleep while at it**


Except the JWs they're different...
They simply...
Don't pray... At all!

Funny, aint it?

Candour: I am glad you accepted that prophecy is greater than tongues in the congregation of believers. If you read 1Cor 14 all thru, Paul wasn't bothered whether it was praying in tongues or preaching in tongues(whatever that means). The summary of the chapter is that in the gathering of believers, pls pocket your tongues except someone can interprets otherwise you're a nuisance to the church.

As per Jude 20, I wonder how praying in the holy ghost translates to speaking in tongues. Am still on my phone now and can't really do a long treatise.

Cheers

Na wa o

Didn't you see me write praying in tongues is diff from speaking (preaching) in tongues

In case you dnt knw praying in the holyghost is same as praying in tongues

1 corinth 14v14 NASB

For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.

Oya quick quiz...did paul pray in tongue? Did he preach in tongues to the congregation?
In churches today, do they pray in tongues or preach in tongues?

I await your answers

Bidam: My brother..i said we should discuss not argue about this from a scriptural standpoint.Even with your copy paste article i still addressed some part where the Op goofed big time.I no try?

Asper Jesus speaking in tongues is a lame excuse.Gombs has addressed the issue.Moreso Jesus was a man like us yet he prayed all night alone. What did you think he was doing all night?Speaking aramaic to God abi?

Can you speak english to God all through the night?

Without the Help of the Holy Spirit we can do nothing bro.

I can pray in tongues for 5hrs without being tired.It takes the Holy Spirit my brother.

This got me cracking up...

Nice question...oya answer can you pray with your understanding all night? Even if you punctuate it with plenty songs you can't.

Candour: Brother, your write up is actually begging the question.i Ccalled tongues a lesser gift and you questioned it by asking which was a worse sin in Gal 5:19-21. I gave you the bible's position on the issue. If the bible calls it a lesser gift, my bro I believe it because that is what it is.

God is more interested in the greater good of his children and prophecy does more good than speaking in tongues(in a congregation of believers) will ever do.

God bless u

True !
Prophecy does more good WHILE PREACHING/TEACHING than speaking in tongues. I don't doubt that, Paul said so in 1 corint 14v5

Dnt get confused na. There's no place in the bible anybody preached in tongues...No place in Nigeria anybody does that too(but maybe in the near future, the church of God would)...but people in the bible PRAYED IN TONGUES...na wa o

Hope you get the two? If you don't understand praying in tongues, pls what did you think Jude 20 was talking abt? And 1 corinth 14v14-15?

14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. 15 So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my understanding; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding.

Jude 20
But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,


Notice in 1corith 14 paul spoke abt speaking in tongues, praying in tongues, praising in tongues and singing in tongues. It was wen comparing prophesy which is teaching/preaching the brethren and using tongues to preach-he tried pointing out which would be beneficial more.

Get the diff pls.
I pray in tongues like paul did, and I don't preach in tongues like Paul didn't . But your case looks like I'm teaching/preaching in tongues

Frank4YAHWEH: So, do you believe that believers should speak in tongues? If not, then I can not see how you can admire Bidam's persistence, since this is what he is teaching. Also, I have yet to see him post anything concerning the glad tidings ["gospel"] of Father Yahweh's Kingdom. His professing to speak in tongues is obviously a lie and this I can not admire. Now he has taken this doctrine of speaking in tongues even futher and is erroneously teaching one "should pray in an UNKNOWN tongue." There is no such thing as an "UNKNOWN" language. The language has to be known to the one who is to interpret it.

I speak in tongues daily for no less than 20mins

You shd try it...ask The Holy spirit to give you utterance

Are you a Believer of Jesus' Teachings/Gospel?

If yes, What do you understand by what Jesus said in Mark 16v17-18 MSG

17-18 “These are some of the signs that will accompany believers: They will throw out demons in my name, they will speak in new tongues, they will take snakes in their hands, they will drink poison and not be hurt, they will lay hands on the sick and make them well.”

benalvino: He was looking for errors and things he points out as errors are not even error...
i will address him later... me and bidam agree on other things but not this one... Jesus did not even speak in tongues... aka Gibs

Gombs: VI.WHY DIDN'T JESUS SPEAK IN TONGUES?

Actually, I'm not totally sure that He didn't. Jesus
rejoiced in the Spirit (Luke 10:21,) and groaned in the Spirit (John11:33.) This terminology is very similar to the term "Praying in the Spirit," which Paul uses to describe praying in tongues (1 Corinthians 14: 14-16.)

However, even if Jesus did not speak in tongues, there are several possible explanations:

1.Since He was God, there were no languages He
didn't know.

2.Since He was sinless, He had perfect communication
with the Father, and therefore, He did not need
tongues.

3.He was the last person to function as a prophet
under the Old Covenant. Tongues are a New Testament phenomenon. Even if Jesus didn't personally speak in tongues, He Himself stated that tongues would be a normative sign to follow believers (Mark 16:17). The entire New Testament was written by people who spoke in tongues.

I've answered this na. Stop being redundant. If you don't agree with my answer put up a worthy challenge against it
