Jesus while on earth was the son of man Mark 10:35 and all men are subject to the Almighty God. The bible says the word becme flesh and dwell among us John 1:14. Flesh is different from the body, flesh is a component of the soul. The second person in trinity dwelling in the son of man; and that made him the son of God because the person of God is in him, and that made him one with God John 10:30. Jesus refers to himself as the son of man not the son of Adam because Adam is not a name but a title and that is why Jesus is the second Adam. His Adamic spirit is just like that of the first Adam which is able to receive from God Luke 2:52 Bible says Jesus grew in wisdom. He became so engrossed with the law that the word of God could dwell in him in all its richness. Jesus was the real son of the first couple Genesis 3:15 and God could see Jesus even before man fell, no wonder He died before the foundation of the world 1 Peter 1:18-20, Rev 13:8 The garden experience never ended with the first Adam, he was chased away but his true offspring, the last Adam, completed it (before a plantain tree loses its essence it is already replaced) Example of the life of the last Adam on earth was that of Mechizedek. Jesus came after the order of Melchizedek. The last Adam came and got the work of God completed ***another rev: the first serpent was friendly and extremely wise and even man felt comfortable in it/with it but its offspring became a good (best,only) hideout for lucifer and in it the prophesy Gen 3:15 is fulfilled |
@CAPTIVATOR, Jesus while on earth was the son of man and all men are subject to the Almighty God. The bible says the word becme flesh and dwell among us. Flesh is different from the body, flesh is a component of the soul. The second person in trinity dwelling in the son of man; and that made him the son of God because the person of God is in him, and that made him one with God. |
Read through someone's write-up, couldn't help but laughed One thing we need to understand is this; heavenly language was formed with heavenly thought which is far different from that of earth. Check where angels spoke with men in the bible, you would understand that their reasoning is always some steps ahead of ours; So it is possible for an angel to relate to Moses and Moses getting it as God talking to Himself as if He is talking to other equals. |
We do know God as the self existing one. The one with all the power, the indescribable, majestic in glory. However these are not enough to describe a person, not in our own world. In the previous world, there is doubt about who God is, whether he even exists but in our world, God is well defined and his full nature is expressed. He is love and questioning his existence is not an option. Joel 2:28 |
To redeem means to compensate for the fault or the bad aspect of something. Synonyms are save, rescue, justify, vindicate. James 1:21 wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your soul What is soul? Soul is the spiritual nature/name given to we humans We are spiritual being and we are called souls. This is just as Gabriel and Michael are spiritual being called angels. Angels are created as messengers, Daniel 8:15-16 We are created to declare God to all being (1 Peter 1:10-12, Eph 3:10-11; 6:12). We occupy an important position in the plan of God. Soul is one of the components of man being a tripartite being. The soul is the most important part of you, the soul makes you a being. The spirit of man is same and that is why we are sons of Adam (just as Christs and Gods Spirit is one), human body is a continuum that keeps degrading (generally becoming more and more susceptible to diseases etc) what really makes you you and distinguishes you from another person is your soul. Man is a spirit that has a soul residing in a body. When God created man, He created spirit, He formed a body for it from the ground (body) and He gave the spirit his identity (soul). Man is a being with authority both in heaven and on earth but when man died in the garden, he lost his spiritual and earthly authority, he became disarmed as a spiritual being, he became a prey. Angels are many but each has different roles and so they have their different groups and names. Same with souls; there are different roles. In the bible, we have names that are for mentioned to achieve certain things, we have seen men that suddenly became inspired and they strived to get somethings achieved, We saw Jesus that said it is finished, Paul said I have completed my course. What I am trying to say is this, when you got born-again, you were born with a name and a role (an identity) (Jesus gave Peter new name etc); dont be too surprised there is something written about you just as Jesus life was pre recorded. Each role is with a crown, it is like a post. Many contend for the same post but only one can occupy it. Paul said I strive... Contending for your heavenly post is redeeming your soul and this can only be achieved by the power of the word Adapted from www.christianlifeissues.com |
And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed" (Genesis 2: . Then the majestic words become quite specific: "And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. And the name of the third river is Hiddekel [Tigris]: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates" (Genesis 2:10-14).But where now are the Pison and the Gihon? And where, if indeed it existed as a geographically specific place, was the Garden of Eden? Theologians, historians, ordinary inquisitive people and men of science have tried for centuries to figure it out. Eden has been "located" in as many diverse areas as has lost Atlantis. Some early Christian fathers and late classical authors suggested it could lie in Mongolia or India or Ethiopia. They based their theories quite sensibly on the known antiquity of those regions, and on the notion that the mysterious Pison and Gihon were to be associated with those other two great rivers of the ancient world, the Nile and the Ganges. |
Where does wealth starts from Wealth belongs to those that can see. Seeing is a mind game, you are the one to create the picture, fan it, give it shape in your heart and work towards actualizing it. You are not to see just anything you are to see a business that will sell in your community. Build a system around it and spice it up with money. If all youve got is your product without a system built around it then you are not different from there has to be a system around it- guide money as it touches your product, define the path it will take such that you will get a maximal yield per unit time, it also guide you yield from being exposed prematurely i.e it prevent outsiders from tapping unto it without your knowledge. It puts you completely in charge. A system is just like software which has it input as your seed and its output as multiplication of whatever you have put into it by at least a particular factor |
You are created to make impact You are one of the selected few created of the Lord in Jesus to make impact. You were not just reborn, even though you have no earthly past, you have a celebrated future. You were born into a role described by God even years before you were born. Just the way John was described as Elijah, just as the steps of Jesus were pre recorded by the spirit of the Lord in the scripture. Before you were formed in the womb, God knew your name; many years ago He spoke about you as being successful with your willful role in the plan of God How to get started: the word of God is the mentoring program of the HS. Through the platform of the word, HS builds you up and set you on the path of destiny. We read about the man Paul that said I have finished my course and about Jesus who said it is finished You can be the GO, you can be the world evangelist, and you can be the father of that great child. He meant more for you, not just a bench warmer in church. You can touch lives. |
A righteous man can never be forgotten Prov 10:7 the name of the righteous is used in blessing but the name of the wicked will not The steps of a righteous man are potent, they are not ordinary, and they lead to an expected end that will always be celebrated. No other slot exists for it in the whole world and the world awaits its manifestation It can never be forgotten because it will be a landmark achievement that will be celebrated. It is always in the secret but it will eventually come to light. Remember Esthers brother, he was remembered after so many months. Jesus is still being celebrated up to today and forever more. Be committed to the path of righteousness, your path to destiny. You are on your way to being a celebrity and you will never be forgotten even in the world to come. |
We are only desperate for the word of God We are almost unresponsive to every push of life- be it terrorism, be it hunger etc and that is the reason why it is almost impossible for us to be tossed about. Only one thing moves us and when we sense it, we can go to the end of the earth to get it and that is the word of God. (Man shall not eat by bread alone). The psalmist says I was glad when they say let us go to the house of the Lord. The word of God is our standing point (our compass) as it helps organize our lives. The sinners can move in 5 different directions in a single day, they end the day/week/month/year confused and destabilized. Running here and there solves nothing but the word of God solves allonly the righteous can understand that. One thing about the word is this- Jesus said I know my sheep and my sheep know my voice. We smell it even from afar and we do not relent until we get it (a merchant man that found godly pearls) |
Trinity Not a word found in the bible but a term used to simplify the Godhead in the bible. Jesus recognized 3 persons that are important- the father, the son and the HG. And the bible also tells us that they are one. In the beginning we understand that God the father used the word let us. How could this be, could it be that God is not one as the bible says. |
It is the wisdom of God The knowledge we need to judge the world and angels is not the knowledge of good and evil but the knowledge of wisdom. Genesis 2:8-9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. God out of his wisdom planted all the trees, one of them led to the fall of His treasured creation. Same way, Jesus in His wisdom chose 12 disciples, one of them was the son of perdition that betrayed him. Maybe it is a path of wisdom and devil fell for it. May be everything was the path that wisdom chose. No wonder God searched everywhere for wisdom did not want to let him off His sight (Job 28:23-7); no wonder Jesus was crucified before the foundation of earth (1Peter 1:19-20, Rev. 13:cool |
There is always job Night may endure for a while but the morning will surely come. There is always a job that is called your job but the timing of that job may not be now, live to witness it Live to see the day simply means surviving till the time is called your time You may not have your job now but the truth is there are always jobs at every particular point in time What changes is what the description of job is And you need to know that this description keeps changing But the common bottom line is whatever brings money, Amidst the small jobs there is always one that is much better, that can keep you alive till your job comes God bless you |
Righteous men think Righteous men do not just take action. They are not driven by emotion, anger, first sight impression, not by how heavy it weighs in their hearts, not even by disappointment. David asked God if he should go. Joseph did not just take the step but he waited. They see the end and extrapolate to the present; they weigh the implication of their action. They are not ordinary; they do not mistakenly do anything. They view all in the wisdom of God. They think and take the best action. Prov. 14:15. In the process of waiting, David heard from God. There is power in the waiting of a righteous man (it is a step of faith) it spurs God (who only responds to faith) and he responds Long suffering is a character that you train yourself in. Start practicing your waiting to think today, every challenge in life is an opportunity to hear from God. |
Dont be too shocked to hear this! Even Satan may not know how he took part in it. If he knew how, or the gravity of what happened, he would not have contributed to the death of Jesus on the cross. |
Who is a righteous man? Righteousness is a state of being right. You do not merit it but you are counted as one. Counted as one as in someone calls you one after you might have fulfilled some criteria In the bible, the standard for righteousness is God and who is that person that can stand God in standard? That is, it is practically impossible for man to be righteous because righteousness is about the purity of the way of God describing God as being right in all ways by God's standard. The bible recorded that Abraham was 'decorated' righteous not by work but by faith, same thing with us, because of our faith we've been decorated righteous by God. That is, we possess the same nature as God and we are free to display the nature of God and this is evidenced by the fruit we bear In the end of days, Jesus will come to separate the sheep from the goat using the fruit as criterion, that is, using the kind of life you live as yard stick. So it is very important you start bearing the fruit which is by living the life, the Gods kind of life. |
Thanks bro. Glory to God! |
It is important for a believer to constantly be in touch with spiritual realities. The bible said let they that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. This is only possible when we change our way of thinking, way of doing things, fashioning all in line with the wisdom of God. We now have a new nature, our culture should follow suit or else we will remain in the bondage of the old culture. Life is attitude and the only way you can live in a way that is acceptable to God and man is by imbibing new attitude. This is also a way of making the shackles of sin fall off you, because when you imbibe new attitudes, you will find no need for sin again (the Israelite couldnt find need for pearls in wilderness, they held on to it for so long and it wasnt difficult for them to release it to God) and it will just be impossible for you to sin anymore because that seed in you will come out ever shinning. A fruit can only be produced under the right atmosphere. |

Remedy for sadness May be sometimes you are not just happy, or you suddenly become jealous of someone, or you are sad over your state in life. It simply means you are not getting the desired fruit and it could be so disturbing and the truth is it hurts. Sadness is emotional pain associated with, or characterized by feelings of disadvantage, loss, despair, helplessness. The day a man failed is not the day he repeated a class but the day he lost courage. It is ok to be disadvantaged but what is worst is to have a feeling of disadvantage. A man that is disadvantaged could be pulled up but a man than has the feeling of disadvantage will resist every attempt for help. The fuel of poverty is the feeling that follows it- what you fight first is not the poverty but the feeling. It is not your fault that you felt pain because of the trauma but it is your fault that you remain sad over it. The pain is superficial but the feeling is deep down in your heart. Sadness is a fruit in the heart that produces a state of mind that is bad for progress in life. That you fall is biblical, it only confirms you as righteous, so you just have to stand up as a new person. You need to understand that you are not meant to be unhappy because you have everything. God watches over you. You dont even have to worry Give yourself a second chance: you are the one that will stand up on your own, even if someone is pulling you up you have to release yourself to be pulled up. That is the time you need to be strong in the word. The way to do that is to forget the past; part of forgetting the past is to forgive. You might start on the same level with someone who is now your boss; forget the past and start treating him as one. What you dont appreciate in other people you dont get, forgive him for surpassing you and work in NOW. Study in the light of Gods word to know where you failed. Giving yourself a second chance is as though you are just starting (no past) but now as a better well equipped person than the first person. Holding onto the past- hatred, envy, strife- will push you deep into pit of misery. You are a new person: person refers to personality- a way of thinking, doing things. Your person means your identity, your attributes that makes you to be you and not another. It has changed and that makes you NEW; not for negative (revenge) but for positive- better well equipped. Your driving force is not hatred but love. Your chronological age may be 50yrs but that is not your real age because your life starts now. It is somehow for a 50 yrs old man to just start schooling but for a new person it is right. Walk in the blessed path: a changed attitude or person does not guarantee an expected end; what guarantees it is the ability to learn from those that are successful. We all have the tendency to repeat the same mistakes. There is a way that seems right but the end is death. Life is too short to gamble with. The fact that you get a second chance is a privilege which many dont get. You cant afford to treed based on your sight again. Walk in the destined path. God took the path first, left his footprints for us to see and follow. The footprint is his word and the path is the path of righteousness. On the path, he dropped everything you could ever need.

Powerful rev but dint quite understand somethings |

What is money? Anything that is generally acceptable as a medium of exchange, what answers everything. Without money no man is complete, there is nothing called value if there is no money, no respect for age if there is no money, it gives credence to a man. Two things are important in life and that is yourself as number 1 and money as number 2. With these you are complete, you can achieve anything, name it in life. Has it ever occurred to you that we eat money, wear money, move with money even sleep with money (a truly handicapped man is a man without money). Anything you can transact on, make bet on, is money. Anything that has value is money. When we say money flows we are referring to the paper that moves around, it is just a proof of value. It is always in circulation (it is what the Government are going to pay you as reward for your service; it is what you give to the person that works for you (It is a liquefied form of asset), there can never be an end to the circulation (because, we move around everyday, we eat everyday etc). Wealth has to do with the management of this flow. |

Bro, see it this way. To people that interpret dreams, each object is symbolic and represents something in the physical but the dreamer relates the dream the way he had it. Same with the garden of eden story, it is a spiritual event; everything there is symbolic and could have everlasting impact. Yes the sin of the first man could make all sinners and the crafty snake representing satan could plan a spiritual deception |
Matthew: 6. 25. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26. Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27. Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28. And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29. And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31. Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32. (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. - Bible Offline |
THE ALMIGHTY FORMULA OF WEALTH CREATION What money is Who gets the money Realities you dont know about money Ways of making money from nothing |
The garden could be likened to a womb: 4 reasons: up till now the earthly location cannot be found, It is a place where everything good on earth is located Gen. 2:8-15. Every of it content has eternal consequence (name given to animal remain the same; once the fruit was taken, no reversal). Adam had no understanding of earthly desires (no need); he never knew he was lonely, even after God provided a helper, there was no urge to know her Adams death in the womb was at full maturity. How? It is in the practice of God to test his work after he has perfected it. God was already testing Adam (he gave him animals to name; the names he gave were accepted by God) and Adam was passing |
And now that we are bornagain, we need to redeem our souls with the word of God |

WHAT KIND OF MENTALITY DO YOU HAVE ABOUT MONEY Making fortune out of nothing Everything that is was formed from what was not. Every great thing you see around you is a product of a great mind; there was a time that it was conceived, a time it first started as something you can not see or that you could barely see. There is nothing called nothing In life there is nothing called nothing, because nothing just exists on it own. You call things nothing because you can not see the something in nothing. A field infested by locust is not nothing; it is just that you could not see the something in what you are seeing. Everything you see around that you call something is just a reorganization of nothing to make something. What has nothing gotten to do with money It is sort of funny but money only goes into something that has value (something) You do not need to look elsewhere for money, look within you, look around you, reorganize what you have (your nothingness) into something of value. What is it you have in you, package it well and price it. What are the kinds of people you have around you, study them and think of how you can find a space for what you have to offer. adapted from the book titled 'almighty formula of wealth creation' |
Call it a myth! you might be right. Call it a fiarytail! you might also be right. Why? The story is a spiritual story that defies human knowledge and which is unfathomable to human mind. By with the help of the HS (the only password into understanding things of God), we bring this truth to you |
. Then the majestic words become quite specific: "And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. And the name of the third river is Hiddekel [Tigris]: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates" (Genesis 2:10-14).
for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. - Bible Offline
