FxMasterz:The Bible contains God's word. Not every content of the Bible is God's word. Even the words Satan spoke are written in the Bible. There are some places men also wrote their personal opinion. For instance, some of the things Job said during the years of his afflictions were his personal opinions. Even Apostle said in a verse that what he wrote was his opinion and not an instruction from the Lord. God didn't dictate the writing of the books of the Bible. The only passage that are clear instructions from God are the prophetic books and the specific instructions he gave to some of the saints of old. The creation story was a revelation Moses received from God. That God rested on the seventh day does not mean he was tired like we humans get tired. Spirits don't get tired. He just wanted to institute a worship schedule which he did to the children of Israel. That day was chosen by God for them to devote themselves to worship. Many other contents are historical. And as men are not perfect, you don't expect perfection in their report. If two of us go to the scene of the same event and we are asked to put down what happened, you can be sure that we will present the story differently. There are no contradictions in the Bible. Tell me any contradiction from the book of the prophets. Show me where two different Prophets of old said two different things on the same thing. |

jaephoenix:You think that I am as jobless as you. Your submission requires lots of time and I am yet to get such time. I have gone through them and it didn't unsettle me one bit. Let me just make a passing comment on one of them. You quoted scripture which says that God dwells in darkness and another says he dwells in light. Let me harmonize these scriptures. The Bible is made of Contents derived from; 1. Historical facts. In other words, things that took place in the Bible days. 2. Revealed facts. These are things revealed which science or the human senses do not know. For instance, the account of creation is a revelation given to Moses. Moses couldn't have known what happened at creation if God did not reveal it to him. 3. Eye witness account. There are also things written that are eye witness account. It could also be a vision seen by the writer which also doubles as a revelation. 4. There are also few words which are the personal opinion of the writer. For example, some of the things Job said during the days of his afflictions were his personal opinions. They can't be used authoritatively as the word of God. Concerning the verse which says that God dwells in darkness. This is certainly what the writer saw or the vision revealed when God showed up. The question is, why would God cover himself with darkness. He did that because if he permits people to see the brightness of his glory, they will all go blind. So, he had to use dark clouds to cover the glory of his brightness. For example, when Jesus appeared to Saul in the book of Acts, the light that shone from Jesus was brighter than the noonday sun. And Saul became blind instantly. So, God does not only dwell in light, He is light himself. But when he sometimes appears in vision or when he appeared to Moses, he covers himself with thick darkness. Notice the phrase, 'THICK DARKNESS'. The darkness has to be thick enough to cover the brightness of the glory of his light, otherwise, the entire camp will go blind. Just give me some time. I will attend to all the submissions. I am a very busy man. |

Monday, April 24th. Exposition on the Book of Revelation - 24 (The Seven Trumpet Judgement - Continued). "And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. (Revelation 8:12). Three judgment at the blast of trumpet thrice by angels is passed. Now, according to the opening text the fourth angel sounded and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.. One third of the sun, moon and stars were affected aa soon as the fourth angel sounded his trumpet. One third of the day became dark on account of this. So also is one third of the night. But no lives were lost. But it will certainly put fear in the heart of those present at that time. John continued his narration saying; "And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!" (Revelation 8:13). In other words, these wicked people should get ready for the worst as the last three angels are about to sound their trumpets that will result in fearful and unimaginable punishment. And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power."(Revelation 9:1-3). The torment these locusts will bring to these wicked people can better be imagined than experienced. This will be the focus of our study tomorrow. Meanwhile, "...be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." (1st Corinthians 15:58). Prayer: Dear Father, blessed be your glorious name which is exalted above all else. Your steadfast love endures to the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Guide me through this day with your very eyes. Lead me in the right path you have planned for me to take. I will live the rest of my life to your praise and glory in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

Sunday, April 23rd. Exposition on the Book of Revelation - 23 (The Seven Trumpet Judgement - Continued). "And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters." (Revelation 8:10). Yesterday, we looked at the first two judgment that were unleashed on the earth at the blast of the trumpet by the first two angels. The opening text says that the third angel sounded and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters. Stars are so far away from the earth such that it will take light years for light from the star to get to the earth. In addition, they are so big that the sun is considered to be the smallest star. They are equally as hot as the sun but they look so small because they are trillions of miles away from the earth. Some stars are even hotter than the sun. So, a star falling on the earth is like trying to smash an ant with a sledge hammer. However, as it falls, it disintegrates into smaller parts otherwise no one on earth will survive the destruction it will cause if it falls as a single mass. The fallen stars have to fall at a speed faster than the speed of light to stand the chance of reaching the earth in the shortest possible time. Even at the speed of light, it will take a star about 4 years to get to the earth. But John in his narration saw the stars reaching the earth almost as soon as the angel sounded the third trumpet. The speed is beyond what science can explain. Well, the verse that follows the opening text reads; "And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter." (Revelation 8:11). The star that fell was not only bitter, it was poisonous and so many people died when they drank the water that was contaminated with the star. Thank God we will not be on earth to witness these judgment on the wicked people of the world. Don't permit the cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches and the pleasures of the world to lure you away from the faith. Make effort to overcome them so you can be counted worthy to escape God's wrath. Prayer: Merciful and Gracious God, I worship you in the beauty of holiness. You are great in counsel and mighty in deed. The works of your hands testify of your goodness and greatness. I commit my day into your mighty hands. Deliver me from every evil works of darkness and fulfill the good pleasure of your will in my life in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. Further Study: Psalms 8:3-6, Nahum 1:2. |

The best way to prepare for death is to give your life to Christ. If you die without receiving salvation which is in Christ Jesus alone, you will end up in hell. Countless millions of people are already in hell with regrets that they neglected the free gift of salvation. Don't let it happen to you. So, why not accept Jesus now.

Saturday, April 22nd. Exposition on the Book of Revelation - 22 (The Seven Trumpet Judgement). "And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up."(Revelation 8:6-7). The persecution of the saints that will be left behind after the rapture of the church will end the church age. A great multitude of believers will through the great tribulation and still make it. But it isn't going to be a pleasant experience. After the church age of the Gentiles has ended, God will resume his dealings with the Jews who are presently experiencing spiritual blindness. This is why Paul wrote; "For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that BLINDNESS IN PART is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in."(Romans 11:25). But before God resumes his dealings with the Jews, he will take vengeance against the wicked rulers and people who persecuted the church. These vengeance will be unveiled by the seven trumpet judgment. At the blast of the trumpet seven different times by angels assigned, a specific judgment or plague will be unleashed on these wicked people. The last part of the opening text said that the first angel sounded and there followed HAIL AND FIRE MINGLED WITH BLOOD, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. It is certainly going to be a scary site to behold. And in just a few hours, every green grass and one third of all trees will be burnt up. This first trumpet is the beginning of sorrow, torments and severe punishment on the wicked people of the earth. John continued his narration saying; "And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed."(Revelation 8:8-9). Just imagine waking up to see the rivers turned into blood. The death of one third of the creatures in the sea will definitely cause the whole land near the sea to stink. Goods worth billions of dollars will be lost as one third of the ships will be destroyed. Two trumpet judgment are over. Five more are yet to come. Tomorrow, we will continue with the study of the seven trumpet judgment of God. Prayer: Dear Father, who is like unto thee? You are glorious in holiness and fearful in praises. None can match the greatness of your power. I thank you for the living hope I have in Christ. Deliver me from every plot of Satan to sway me away from the faith in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

Parents have failed in raising up their kids the godly way. The church has failed also in impacting the world with the gospel. School authorities and staffs also have a share in this because they are one of the greatest patronage. Meanwhile, as much as I don't support indecent dressing, the ban is a breach of fundamental human right.

Friday, April 21st. Exposition on the Book of Revelation - 21 (The Tribulation Saints - Continued). "Therefore are they (tribulation saints) before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them." (Revelation 7:15). Yesterday, we talked about the tribulation saints. They missed the rapture on account of sin. However, they still made it having washed their stained garments by the blood of the lamb. But they will all be persecuted unto death for holding on to their faith. Besides notable sins such as fornication, adultery, lying, stealing, murder and idolatry, three are other forms of sin that could make a believer miss the rapture. Example of sins that could make you miss the rapture are; deliberate abstinence from fellowship, ignoring the need of brethren when it's within your power to help, lack of commitment in church and refusal to preach the gospel to lost souls. The opening text said that these tribulation saints are before the throne of God and serve him day and night. It's interesting to know that the service they were reluctant to attend on earth is now a daily routine in heaven. The verse that follows the opening text reads; "They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat." (Revelation 7:16). What made them hungry and thirsty? Why were they under the scorching heat of sun? It was because of the persecutions they faced. On account of it, , they could not come out publicly to buy food to eat or water to drink. They could not also stay in their homes because they will search everywhere for them. Most of them will definitely be under the scorching heat of the sun in attempt to run for safety. But at the end of the day, there will no hiding place. Helicopters and drones will be deployed to search them all out, arrest and persecute them to death. I don't think any wise believer would love to go through this tribulation. It's not going to be a pleasant experience. It's therefore better to dedicate your life to his service now on earth. Stop skipping church services. Be involved in soul winning. Help those in need around you especially the brethren. "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."(1st Thessalonians 5:23). Prayer: Glorious Father, I thank you for the privilege to see another wonderful day. You are worthy of my praise and adoration. I thank you for the opportunity given to me to be a part of your kingdom. I ask for grace to serve you diligently and keep the faith to the end in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
