➖ BLESSED STATE OF THE SAINT IN GOD’S GREAT MERCIES THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Psalm 32:1-2, 1 John 5:17, 1 John 1:9, 7
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Psalms 32:1 (A Psalm of David, Maschil.) Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Psalms 32:2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

This is the blessed state of the saint in Christ Jesus wherein the saint receives unmerited mercy from our compassionate God by Christ Jesus.
All unrighteousness is sin (1 John 5:17).
If we confess our sins, He is Faithful and True to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness by Christ Jesus, it is His Son Jesus Christ that cleanses us from all sin(1 John 1:9, 7).

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ VITALITY LOSS OF THE SAINT THAT REFRAINS FROM CONFESSION OF SINS TO GOD THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Psalm 32:3-4, 1 John 1:10, 1 John 2:1-2
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Psalms 32:3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.
Psalms 32:4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

The writer by inspiration from God recounts how he felt when he refused to acknowledge his sin. He lost his vitality.
Whoever says that he or she has not sinned is making the Lord Jesus a liar and His word is not in that person(1 John 1:10).

The main point here is that if you sin, if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins(1 John 2:1-2).

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ GOD’S FORGIVENESS IN HIS GREAT MERCIES BY CHRIST JESUS TO THE SAINT.
Verse(s): Psalm 32:5, 1 John 1:9, Psalm 145:8, Joel 2:13, 1 John 5:16-17, Mark 3:28-29
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Psalms 32:5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

The writer then further goes on as he writes, he acknowledge His sin to God, he does not hide his wrongdoing, He confesses that sin and God in His great mercies by Christ Jesus forgives Him.
This is what the saint needs to emulate, maybe there is a sin or sins that you are guilt ridden about, humble yourself and penitently confess your sin to God(1 John 1:9).

Our God is merciful, compassionate and assured you forgiveness according to His word(Psalm 145:8, Joel 2:13).
Joel 2:13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.

Now all unrighteousness is sin and there is a sin that leads to death and sin not leading to death(1 John 5:16-17).
Mark 3:28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
The sin leading to death is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

(2) THE SAINTS ADMONISHED TO FEAR THE LORD THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
▪️Verse(s): Psalm 32:6-9
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We will look at three things now:
➖ THE SAINT IN CHRIST SEEKS THE LORD IN THE DAYS OF OPPORTUNITY.
➖ THE SAINT’S SECURITY IN CHRIST JESUS BY GOD THE FATHER.
➖ THE SAINT IN CHRIST SHOULD FEAR THE LORD.

➖ THE SAINT IN CHRIST SEEKS THE LORD IN THE DAYS OF OPPORTUNITY.
Verse(s): Psalm 32:6, Psalm 69:13, Isaiah 55:6
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Psalms 32:6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.

The saints seek the LORD diligently in the days of opportunity,
Psalms 69:13 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
Isaiah 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

The soul should seek the LORD for forgiveness through Christ Jesus while He may be found.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE SAINT’S SECURITY IN CHRIST JESUS BY GOD THE FATHER.
Verse(s): Psalm 32:7, Psalm 9:9, Proverbs 29:25, 30:5
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Psalms 32:7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

Whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe, every word of God is pure, He is a shield to those who trust in Him(Proverbs 29:25, 30:5).

So by His grace , keep on trusting in the LORD in Christ Jesus.
Psalms 9:9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
Proverbs 29:25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
Proverbs 30:5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Psalms 32:9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

Psalms 119:9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.
Our God and Father is to be obeyed by His grace, we should all humble ourselves and seek to live in this life by His Wisdom in Christ Jesus, obeying the instructions He gives us, abiding by His teachings in the word which was taught to us by Christ Jesus and being suited by Him.

Psalms 37:5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
Psalms 37:6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
Psalms 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.

We are admonished not be like a horse, a mule which has no understanding, whose mouth must be held in with bit and bride, or else they will not come near to you.
We are to fear Him and keep His commandments for that is man’s all(Ecclesiastes 11:13).

➖ OPEN ARMS TO THE WEAK BELIEVER IN FAITH TO CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Romans 14:1-2, Mark 9:37, Titus 3:9, Romans 12:18, 2 Corinthians 13:11, 1 Corinthians 6:12
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
Romans 14:2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

We are not to be closed-off to those who are weak in the faith but rather to receive them as little children and the Lord Jesus says that. Whoever receives one of these little children in His name, receives Him, yet receives not Him but Him who sent Him, that’s our God and Father that sent the Lord Jesus Christ( Mark 9:37).

And we should also be careful to receive them without any dispute over doubtful things, that is we should avoid foolish disputes and striving about the law, contentions, for they are unprofitable and useless(Titus 3:9).
We are admonished to live peacefully with all men for the God we serve is a God of peace(Romans 12:18, 2 Corinthians 13:11).

All things are lawful to the believer(1 Corinthians 6:12)

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ RESPECTING THE LIBERTY OF FELLOW SAINTS IN CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Romans 14:3, Matthew 7:1-6, James 4:11-12
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 14:3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.

Knowing all things are lawful to the believer, we should not despise our fellow believer who does not partake of a particular thing you partake in, respecting the liberty of fellow saints because all things are lawful to the believer.
So we should not judge that brother or that sister who may not partake of that thing that you are in favour of but we respect each other and not judge one another.

The Lord Jesus tells us that we should not judge, so that we ourselves will not be judge, for with what judgement you or I judge, we also will be judged and with the measure we use, it will be measured back to us(Matthew 7:1-2).
So brethren, let us take to heart these words and by the grace of God ceasing from judging our fellow brethren in Christ(James 4:11-12).

➖ STRICT REFUSAL TO JUDGE FELLOW SAINTS BELONGING TO GOD IN CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Romans 14:4, 1 Corinthians 3:23, James 4:12
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

Also we are to take note of the fact that we are Christ’s and Christ’s is God’s(1 Corinthians 3:23).
Therefore, who are you to judge? Who am I to judge?(Jam 4:12) To judge one who does not belong to you and has a master, an owner.
To the master that servant stands or falls. Indeed, the master can make the servant stand.

What this means is that if someone, a fellow brother or sister, seems to be falling away, it is to the owner not to you and you have no right to judge that person, one who does not belong to you but to another. And that person, the master can make that person stand.
▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
(2) ACKNOWLEDGING THE SAINT’S FREEDOM AND SUBMISSION TO THE LORD JESUS IN ALL THINGS.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 14:5-9

We will look at three things now:
➖ THE LIBERTY OF THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST BEING FULLY CONVINCED ESTEEM AND OBSERVE WHATSOEVER IN TRUTH.
➖ THE BELIEVER LIVES AND DIES TO THE LORD, THE OWNER.
➖ THE LORD JESUS, THE LORD OF THE DEAD AND THE LIVING.

➖ THE LIBERTY OF THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST BEING FULLY CONVINCED ESTEEM AND OBSERVES WHATSOEVER IN TRUTH.
Verse(s): Romans 14:5-6
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 14:5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
Romans 14:6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

This is to make us aware to be aware of the liberties, our fellow brethren have, that is one can esteem a particular day above another, one can be like, this particular religious public holiday, I’ll observe it, I’ll esteem it but this other particular day, in my opinion I don’t think one should esteem it, one should observe it, so I’ll go about that day like any other day because I don’t want to observe it.

And if that person regards that day, it is to the Lord, if that person eats, that is partake of a particular thing, that person eats to the Lord, for that person give thanks to God.
And if the person does not eat, it is to the Lord and gives God thanks.

Romans 14:8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

The believer aware that he/she belongs that he/she has been bought at a price and therefore is not his or her own(1 Corinthians 6:19-20, 3:23).

Verse(s): Romans 8:31, Isaiah 66:1, 45:5-7, Romans 9:21
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

If God is for us, if God is for me, if God is for you, who can be against us? Who can be against me? Who can be against you?
God the omnipotent God, omniscient, omnipresent, Heaven is His throne and earth His footstool(Isa 66:1).
He is the LORD, and there is no other; There is no God beside Him. He forms the light and create darkness, He make peace and create calamity; He, the LORD, does all these things(Isaiah 45:5-7).

He is the Creator, He has complete control, He creates vessels for honour and dishonour. If He sets His hand against someone , somewhere is something, who will be able to deliver out His hand?(Romans 9:21)
God’s dominion is real, He has supremacy over all things, seen and unseen, known and u known, He is all powerful and there is nothing, no not one, that can deliver from His hand if set against Him.

The aim of this elaborate breakdown is to open your eyes, for you to know that there is no one above Him nor none beside Him. Who is like our God?

➖ THE SAINT’S ASSURANCE IN GOD’S LIMITLESS AND BOUNDLESS SUFFICIENCY.
Verse(s): Romans 8:32, John 3:16, Colossians 4:19, 2 Peter 1:3-4
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

God our Father gave us His Son, His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ(John 3:16), God has demonstrated His love for us in deeds and in truth and not just in the word alone but in our daily lives.
His love for us is evident knowing that we should not worry, trusting that He as He has been doin and will continue to do supply all our need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus(Col 4:19).

He has given you all things that pertains to life and godliness through and in Christ Jesus, you have everything and you have received through and in Christ Jesus exceedingly great, and precious promises (2 Peter 1:3-4).

➖ THE SAINT’S CONFIDENCE IN GOD THE SUPREME JUDGE OF ALL.

(2) CHRIST’S COMPASSIONATE LOVE TOWARDS HIS SAINTS.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 8:34-36
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We will look at three things now:
➖ THE COMPASSIONATE AND UNDERSTANDING INTERCESSOR AND MEDIATOR, CHRIST JESUS.
➖ THE OVERCOMING AND PREVAILING COMPASSIONATE LOVE OF CHRIST JESUS.
➖ THE UNCOMPROMISING ZEAL AND FAITHFULNESS OF THE LABOURERS IN THE COMMISSION OF CHRIST JESUS.

➖ THE COMPASSIONATE AND UNDERSTANDING INTERCESSOR AND MEDIATOR, CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Romans 8:34, 1 Peter 2:25, 1 Timothy 2:5, Hebrews 8:1-2, 1 John 2:1-2, 1:9
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

➖Christ Jesus is the Shepherd and Overseer of our souls(1 Peter 2:25).
➖He is the mediator between God and men(1 Tim 2:5).
➖He is our High Priest(Hebrews 8:1-2)
➖He is our advocate, the propitiation for our sins, and the one who cleanses the saints from all unrighteousness(1 John 2:1-2, 1:9).
➖He is at God’s right hand and makes intercession for us.

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE OVERCOMING AND PREVAILING COMPASSIONATE LOVE OF CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): Romans 8:35, 1 Thessalonians 2:12
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or unclothedness, or peril, or sword?

And a question is asked, I’d like to pass on that question to you, maybe you’ll be able to think of something, as for me, I am fully persuaded that there is nothing, absolutely nothing, no not one.
Be it tribulation or afflictions or sufferings or persecutions or famine, or stress or unclothedness or peril or sword or the devil or anything that pertains to darkness.

So keep on running your course with endurance regardless of whatsoever, the pain or situation you are going through has an end and where God is taking you through Christ Jesus is to His Kingdom and glory(1 Thess 2:12).
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE UNCOMPROMISING WORK OF THE LABOURERS IN THE COMMISSION OF CHRIST JESUS.

Romans 8:36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

All that will live godly in Christ shall suffer persecution(2 Tim 3:12).

But we do not lose heart, even if our outward man is perishing, our inward man is being renewed daily and this light affliction is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory(2 Cor 4:16-17).

I am safe, secured, assured, confident, resolute, bold on Christ Jesus, the Solid Rock, the foundation by the grace of Lord God-Almighty.

Verse(s): Romans 8:18, 1 Peter 3:9, 1 Thessalonians 2:12, 2 Peter 1:3-4
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We start from verse 18, the writer by the teaching of the Holy Spirit made a statement that it is unworthy for the present sufferings to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
The child of God has been called to inherit a blessing(1 Peter 3:9), has been called though unmerited to the Holy Father’s kingdom and glory(1 Thess 2:12) according to His good pleasure.

God having given through Christ Jesus by His divine power has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue.
by which we have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partaker of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

➖ CREATION EARNEST EXPECTATION FOR THE REVEALING OF THE SONS OF GOD.
Verse(s): Romans 8:19-21, Ephesians 5:9

Moving on to verse 19, we learn that creation earnest expectation is the revealing of the sons of God which it eagerly waits for.
The sons of God are those who are led by the Spirit of God, and we know that the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness and truth(Eph 5:9).

Creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope because creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God

Verse(s): Romans 8:22
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Whole creation groans and labour sin birth pangs till now. I’ve made some observations that I’d like to share with you, not sure if any of you have noticed it but feel free to check it out later.

Some days ago I n the starry night, I saw some stars blinking rapidly, some changes color, I also spotted some new stars not white like the rest but orange, uh yellow-like, if you take your time to go out this night to look at the stars, you might be able to spot some of them too.

Some days before I saw two stars moving, a friend of mine when we were coming back from a weekly service also told me that he saw one star moving in the night and no we are not confusing those stars with air craft or satellites in space.

Even another time again, it was brief, I saw one bright star move across the sky very fast, one moment it was there another moment it wasn’t there. Last week Sunday, early in the morning, maybe some of you noticed it, thee way the sun, moon and a morning star aligned perfectly in a straight line.

▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:15, 2 Peter 2:22, 2 Corinthians 12:9, Mark 3:28, 1 John 1:9
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We start from verse 15, a question asked,shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? certainly not. A sharp refusal to return to the vomit from which the believer through Christ was delivered from(2 Peter 2:22).

Every believer in Christ Jesus should have the same resolve towards sin having confidence in the sufficient grace of God and strength that is made manifest in our weakness(2 Corinthians 12:9).

Now, peradventure, a believer here is weighed down by a particular sin, guilt-ridden. I’d like to bring to that person’s attention the following:
(I) All sins can be forgiven except for sin leading to death, that is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit(Mark 3:28).
(II) The penitent believer in Christ should confess his or her sins, the Lord Jesus is faithful and just to forgive you of your sins and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness(1 John 1:9).

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ PRESENTATION OF SELF AND MEMBERS IN CHRIST OF OBEDIENCE LEADING TO RIGHTEOUSNESS.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:16, 1 Peter 4:3, 2 Corinthians 5:17, 1 Peter 4:2
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We move on to verse 16, now we know that to whom we present ourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slave whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness.

1 Peter 4:3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

The resolute believer in Christ is no longer interested in walking in the will of the gentiles, drowning in all manner of fleshly lusts as we once were at one point in time but now we gave our lives to Christ, all those things of old are now past away and behold we have been made new wherein the things that pertains to the new should be what is evident in us(2 Corinthians 5:17).

Now we live for the will of God(1 Peter 4:2).
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ GRATITUDE TO GOD FOR OBEDIENCE TO THAT FORM OF DOCTRINE ROOTED IN TRUTH.
Verse(s): Romans 6:17, 2 Timothy 1:13
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Moving now to verse 17, we offer thanks to whom it is due, that though in our pasts we were slaves of sin, yet we have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered.
That is the pattern of sounds words rooted in the word of truth in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
(2) PRESENTATION OF SELF BY THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST AS A SERVANT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HOLINESS.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:18-20
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We will look at three things now:
➖ THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST A BONAFIDE SERVANT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
➖ THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST BOLDLY REJECTS SERVITUDE TO UNCLEANNESS AND LAWLESSNESS.
➖ THE BELIEVER’S FREEDOM FROM RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE PAST SINFUL LIFE.

➖ THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST A BONAFIDE SERVANT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:18, John 8:32, 34, 36
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
John 8:34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

But. We have been set free and are now bonafide servants of righteousness, no longer in the shackles of sin.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST BOLDLY REJECTS SERVITUDE TO UNCLEANNESS AND LAWLESSNESS.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:19, 13:11-14
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Now just as in our old life, we presented our members as slaves of uncleanness and of lawlessness which will led to more lawlessness, we are now to present our members as slaves of righteousness for holiness.

Let us walk properly, as of the day as children of light, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. But rather we put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

Make no provision, that is to relate with that bad friend, or to have that certain thing or whatsoever that create an enablement to fulfill the fleshly lusts.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE BELIEVER’S FREEDOM FROM RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE PAST SINFUL LIFE.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:20, Isaiah 64:6
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Romans 6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

This was the state of our good works in our past sinful lives, yes this is it.
This includes those good works that concern giving to the poor and hungry, donating to charities and orphanages and other so called good endeavors according to the standards of the world but to God the justifier, Isaiah 64:6, gives us an idea into the view of how God saw those works.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
(3) THE SERVANT OF GOD THROUGH CHRIST HAS FRUIT TO HOLINESS, AND AT THE END EVERLASTING LIFE.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:21-23
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
➖ THE SINNER’S END IS DEATH.
➖ THE SERVANT OF GOD’S END IN CHRIST JESUS IS EVERLASTING LIFE.
➖ THE FREE GIFT OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD TO THE BELIEVER.
Moving on to the first sub-heading now.
➖ THE SINNER’S END IS DEATH.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:21
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
If we were to take a moment, a pause to reflect on our past when we were in the bondage of sin.
What fruits did you have then in the things you are now ashamed of?
For the end of those things is death.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE SERVANT OF GOD’S END IN CHRIST JESUS IS EVERLASTING LIFE.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:22
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Now the case is difference to, having been set free from sin, and having become servants of the God the MOST HIGH, you have your fruit to holiness, and st the end, everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

We move on to the final sub-heading.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ THE FREE GIFT OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD TO THE BELIEVER.
▪️Verse(s): Romans 6:23
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We move on to verse 23 a popular verse, the wages of sin is death and the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
This is part of the portion for the believer in Christ, so keep on believing knowing this by the grace of God.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕

(2) RESURRECTION OF LAZARUS, THE FINAL VICTORY OVER DEATH BY AND THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
(3) THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST SHALL THROUGH FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES.

(1) CHRIST JESUS, WHO RESURRECTS AND GIVES LIFE.
▪️Verse(s): John 11:1-8
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
A certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
❕❕❕
The sisters alerted the Lord Jesus about his sickness, the Lord Jesus responded by saying, “This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
So when He heard that He was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was.

➖ WHOEVER BELIEVES IN CHRIST JESUS SHALL LIVE.

▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
➖ THE BELIEVER THAT WALKS IN THE LIGHT OF THE LORD WILL NOT STUMBLE.
Verse(s): John 11:9-16, 2 Thessalonians 5: 1-11, Ephesians 5:8-14
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
“If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of the world. But if one walks in the night he stumbles because the light is not in Him.” , this was what Christ Jesus said to the disciples.

After these things He said, to the disciples, “Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.” The disciples thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep but He spoke of his death.
Then Jesus said to them plainly, “ Lazarus is dead. And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe, nevertheless let us go to Him.
❕❕❕
We all know perfectly well that the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night. You are all children of light and of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
So let us not sleep but rather be sober and watch.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ CHRIST JESUS, THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE.
Verse(s): John 11:17-25
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.
Now Martha as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him.
Now Martha said to Jesus! “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know whatever you ask of God, God will give You.”
Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
Martha said to Him, “I know that He will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life he who believes in Him, though he may die, he shall live.”
❕❕❕
This is very straightforward, He is the resurrection and the life. He/She who believes in Him, though the person may die, he/she shall live.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖ WHOEVER BELIEVES IN CHRIST JESUS SHALL LIVE.
Verse(s): John 11:26-27
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
“And whoever lives and believes in Him shall never die. Do you believe this?”
She said to Him, “Yes Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.”
❕❕❕
I believe. Do you believe? If yes good, the word will be confirmed in the life of the believer. We move on to the second point.
▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
(2) RESURRECTION OF LAZARUS, THE FINAL VICTORY OVER DEATH BY AND THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
▪️Verse(s): John 11:28-44
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We will look at three things now:
➖CHRIST JESUS AND DEATH, THE LAST ENEMY.
➖LAZARUS RAISED FROM THE DEAD THROUGH CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.
➖FINAL VICTORY OF THE SAINTS OVER DEATH THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.

➖CHRIST JESUS AND DEATH, THE LAST ENEMY.
Verse(s): John 11:28-37
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Mary the sister of Martha was called by the Teacher(Jesus). As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came to Him, now Jesus had not yet come into town but but was in the place where Martha met Him.
Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there”.
❕❕❕
Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled. And He said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to Him, “Lord, come and see.”
Jesus wept. John 11:35)
Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him! And some of them said, Could not this Man who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?”
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖LAZARUS RAISED FROM THE DEAD THROUGH CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.
Verse(s): John 11:38-44
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb, it was a cave, and a stone lay against it. Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of Him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”
Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?”
❕❕❕
Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father I thank you that You have heard Me.” Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!”
And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with grave clothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose Him, and let him go.”

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖FINAL VICTORY OF THE SAINTS OVER DEATH THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
Verse(s): John 11:25-27, John 5:25, 28-29, 1 Corinthians 15:50-57, Isaiah 25:8, Hosea 13:14, James 1:14-15
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
I’m not copying and pasting the story, I wrote down the summary for you to read , to admonish you. Jesus is the resurrection and the life, and whoever believes in Him will live(John 11:25-27), those who came before us that are now dead though in Christ will be raised up first before we are are alive and remain are taken(John 5:25, 28-29).
The story of Lazarus is supposed to serve for our admonition that yes the Lord Jesus indeed and in truth has the power from God to raise up the dead and give life to the dead.

Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God nor does corruption inherit incorruption. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”(Isa 25:cool

The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus.

I urge you to read the verses mentioning under this sub-heading. By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would received as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

By faith he dwelt in the land of promises as in a foreign country dwelling in. Tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with Him of the same promise. For he waited for the city which has foundations whose builder and maker is God.

By faith Abraham when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, of whom it was said, “In Isaac your seed shall be called,” concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead, from which he also received him in a figurative sense.

➖ READING AND MEDITATING ON THE WORD OF TRUTH.
➖ OBEYING GOD IN DEEDS AND IN TRUTH.
➖ SHOWCASING YOUR LOVE FOR GOD VIA OBEDIENCE IN CHRIST BY FAITH.

➖ READING AND MEDITATING ON THE WORD OF TRUTH.
Verse(s): 2 Timothy 2:15, Philippians 1:27, 1 Thessalonians 2:13
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
The word of truth is the word of which effectively works in you that believe(1 Thess 2:13).
You should not only read and meditate on it but also rightly divide the word of truth, that is to take one verse out of context and link it with another, be very careful and diligent in dividing the word of truth(2 Timothy 2:15).

We should also by the grace of God through Christ Jesus walk worthy in conduct of the gospel of Christ Jesus(Philippians 1:27).

If you love God, you will keep His commandment: which is to,
(I) Believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ.
(II) Love one another.
As He gave us this commandment.

Obey the commandments of the Lord Jesus, love one another(John 15:7).
Love is the fulfillment of the law(Romans 13:10) and covers a multitude of sins(1 Peter 4:cool.

LOVE IN DEEDS AND IN TRUTH.
To love in deed is for the love of God and your neighbour to be evident in works and to love in truth, is to love without any ulterior motive or deceit.

God is love(1 John 4:cool, if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us(1 John 4:12).
Love in deeds and in truth.

(1 John 5:1-3)
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves God the Father also loves Christ Jesus our Lord. By this we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments.
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. and His commandments are not burdensome.

John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Your Father teaches to profit, who lead His child in the way he or she should go, and he child heed His commandments, then the child’s peace will be like a river, the child’s righteousness as the waves of the sea(Isaiah 48:17-18).

He will instruct His child, teach The child in the way to go and guide the child with His eye(Psalm. 32:cool, His word will cleanse the child’s way(Psalm 119:9).

Here is David’s testimony concerning God’s commandments(Psalm 119:97-104):
He begins by mentioning how he loves His law!
He meditates on the law, and through His commandments, He is made wiser than his enemies, for they are always with him.
He mentions how he has more understanding than all his teachers and His testimonies, that is in the Bible concerning God of all that He has done.
He says he understands more than the ancients because He keeps His precepts, that is walking worthy of the gospel in conduct as it relates to us.
▫️
He goes on further that he has restrained his feet from every evil way, that he may keep His word. He mentions how he has not departed from His judgements, that is God’s say in all matters of life according triune in the word of truth.
God Himself will teach the child just as he taught David, is teaching me and will also teach you as He has already been doing but I urge you to give more way for Him in your life.

⚠️:
(I)PLEASE DO NOT CALL YOURSELF RIGHTEOUS OR HOLY, GOD IS THE JUDGE OF THAT THROUGH CHRIST.

Blessed is the one who hears the LORD, who delights in His commandments. Wealth and prosperous riches will be in the person’s house, and the person’s righteousness endures forever.
The person is gracious, full of compassion and righteous. The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance. The person no longer afraid of evil tidings, but the person’s heart is steadfast trusting in the LORD, the person’s heart is established.
KNOW THIS, GOD’S WORD ENDURETH FOREVER!

When we go back in time, back then to the time when the Israelites had come out from Egypt, they set up a tabernacle for God, and in a part of the tabernacle was called the Holiest of All, it was a hotspot of God’s presence in the tabernacle(Heb 9:2-3).
The high priest went alone once a year into the Holiest with blood which he offered for himself and the people’s sins committed in ignorance(Heb 9:7-cool.

Christ Jesus through the eternal Spirit offered a Himself without spot to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works to serve the living God, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins( Heb 9:14-15, Col 1:14).

Therefore, you can with boldness enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through His flesh, He being our High Priest over the house of God.

We all are familiar with the nine fruits of the Spirit: Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Goodness, Kindness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-control. Those who inherit the Kingdom of God which is already within you(Lk 17:21) will not only live in the Spirit but walk in the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23, 25).

After believing in Christ and repenting from your sins, you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom you cry out to God, “Abba Father!”, for as many are led by the Spirit of God, they are the children of God, the Spirit in you bears witness that you are His child.
If children of God, then heirs, heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ. If we suffer with Him, we may also be glorified with Him.
The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of creation waits to for the revealing of the children of God.

No more will an infant live but for a few days, for the child shall die one hundred years old, but the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed. They shall build houses and inhabit them, they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
They shall not build and another inhabit, they shall not plant and another eat. For as the days of the tree, so shall be the days of My people.
And My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands, they shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth children for trouble. For they shall be descendants of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.

It shall come to pass that before they call, He will answer, and while they are speaking, He will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together. The lion shall eat straw like the ox, and dust shall be the serpent’s food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all His Holy mountain, Says the LORD.

We according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth which righteousness dwells(2 Peter 3:13).

▪️John 6:26-40
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
48 I am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

We start from verse 26 to 27 which discusses on labour for the food that endures to everlasting life and not perish.

The bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.
John 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

This is the new commandment. Though we have had from the beginning, that we love one another. This is love, that we walk according to His commandments(2 John 1:5-6), that is if you love God, you will keep His commandments(John 14:15).
If this commandments shall remain with you, you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father(1 John 2:24).
And this is the promise that He has promised us—-eternal life, God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
He/She that believes in Christ Jesus has eternal life, He that has the Son has life, he that does not have the Son, does not have life. Now you who believe in the name of the Son of God, now know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

Romans 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
Romans 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Romans 6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
Romans 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.

Christ Jesus died on the cross, His hands on each side nailed to the cross, with one feet placed above the other, nailed to the cross, from there His cross was elevated and He took the sin of the world. He became a sacrificial lamb though innocent but He loves us and gave Himself for us(Gal 2:20).

Us through His blood we have redemption and forgiveness of sins, we have been crucified with Him, it is no longer us who lives but He lives in us and we live by faith in Him, who loved us and gave Himself for us.

And on the third day, He rose again, death no more having dominion on Him, we planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection. We are freed from the bondage of sin and should no longer serve it.
Romans 6:22-23,
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

(1) THE BELIEVER BELIEVES NOT IN CHRIST BUT IN GOD THE FATHER WHO SENT HIM.
(2) THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST WALKS IN LIGHT.
(3) JUDGEMENT BY HIS WORD AGAINST THOSE WHO REJECT HIM AND DOES NOT RECEIVE HIS WORDS.

(1)THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST BELIEVES IN GOD THE FATHER.
▪️Verse(s): John 12:42-45
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Let us briefly go through the first three verses of the text.
Now, we see how her some rulers did not believe in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue For they loved the praise of men anymore than the praise of God.
Our Lord Jesus also mentions that those who believe in Him, believes not in Him but in the Father who sent Christ.

We are going to look at three things here:
➖ THE TRUE BELIEVER SEEKS HONOUR FROM GOD.
➖THE TRUE BELIEVER BELIEVES NOT ONLY IN CHRIST BUT IN GOD THE FATHER.
➖ THE TRUE BELIEVER WHO SEES CHRIST SEES GOD THE FATHER WHO SENT HIM.
❕➖❕
▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
➖THE TRUE BELIEVER SEEKS HONOUR FROM GOD.
Verse(s): John 12:42-43, John 5:41,44, Genesis 5:24,
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
When we read verse 42-43, we realize that we ought not to seek the praise of men but rather the praise that comes from God. Taking example from our Lord Jesus Christ, who boldly stated that He does not seek the honor of men but. Rather. And seeks the honor the comes from God(Jn 5:41,44).
The honour that comes from men is not worthy to be compared with the honour that comes from God, in my own opinion conceiving such a thought is repulsive.
But rather the children of Light seeks honour from the Father, let us go back in time, shall we?
-Enoch walked with God, God so honoured Him that He did it taste death but was taken away(Genesis 5:24), Abraham, Sarah, Israel, Deborah, Joshua, Josiah, Solomon, Ezekiel and so on.
-David, a man after God own heart, God so honoured him that He established a covenant with Him, blessed Him and His family with an everlasting blessing.
(And this I just on earth, there’s still way more in store for the children of light after their redemption is perfected, that is everlasting life, and way much more to be explained but please just be content with this that they might be the CHILDREN OF GOD, THE MOST HIGH).
-Our Lord Jesus Christ has been given a named greater than any other name, has been elevated to sit at the right hand of God’s throne, the fullness of the Godhead bodily dwells in Christ Jesus, you can only.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖THE TRUE BELIEVER BELIEVES NOT ONLY IN CHRIST BUT IN GOD THE FATHER WHO SENT HIM.
Verse(s): John 12:44, Galatians 2:20, John 3:16
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
We move on to verse 44, our Lord Jesus mentions that he who believes in Him, believes not in Him but in God the Father who sent Him.
John 12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

Please do not be confused, what the word is trying to say is that as you believe in Christ Jesus our Lord, you believe not in Him but in the Father who sent Him.
Again please to avoid confusion, you are to keep your faith in Christ(John 3:16, Gal 2:20).
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖THE TRUE BELIEVER WHO SEES CHRIST SEES GOD THE FATHER WHO SENT HIM.
Verse(s): John 12:45, John 14:9-10, Galatians 2:20, Colossians 3:11, Matthew 25:35-40, 1 John 4:8, 9-12, 13, 16
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
He who has seen our Lord Jesus Christ has seen the Father, the Father dwells in Him and Him in the Father(John 14:9-10).
Christ lives in true believers, Christ is all in all and we live by faith in Him(Gal 2:20, 3:11).

That is why when Christ Jesus comes to judge all nations after the great tribulation(Matt 25:35-40), He mentions to them how He was hungry, thirsty, naked, and how He was fed, received drink and clothed e.t.c.

God is love(1 John 4:cool, if God so loved us that He gave us His only begotten Sin into the world, that we might live through Him, we ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another. God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us(1 John 4:9-12).
It is by this we know that we abide in Him, and age is in us, because He has given us of His Spirit, if. YOU love, YOU abide in God and God abides in YOU(1 John 4:13, 16).

We move on to verse 46, 47.
Do you follow Christ? Those who follow Christ shall not walk in darkness. Have no fellowship by the grace of God with the unfruitful works of darkness, the fruits of the Spirit in Christ Jesus is in all GOODNESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH(Ephesians 5:6-9).
We will look at three things now:
➖ THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST SHOULD NOT ABIDE IN DARKNESS.
➖ THE HEARER YET UNBELIEVER WILL BE JUDGED.
➖ CHRIST JESUS CAME TO SAVE THE WORLD NOT JUDGE.

➖THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST SHOULD NOT ABIDE IN DARKNESS.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Do not abide in darkness. Have no fellowship with the UNFRUITFUL works of darkness(Eph 5:7-cool.
For what communion has light with darkness?What part has a believer with an unbeliever? and what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are a temple of the living God(2 Corinthians 6:14-16).

Rather by the Holy Spirit, the FULLNESS of CHRIST is a provision graciously granted to you in Christ(John 1:16). You are a light in the Lord, walk as a child of light(Eph 5:6).
Our Lord Jesus says that let our light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven( Matt 5:16).

➖THE HEARER YET UNBELIEVER WILL BE JUDGED.
Verse(s): John 12:47, 3:36

To hear His words and yet not believe, the wrath of God will be abide on such a person(Jn 3:36). The Lord Jesus will not judge that person but by the word He has spoken will judge him.

➖CHRIST JESUS CAME TO SAVE THE WORLD NOT JUDGE.
Verse(s): John 12:47, John 3:17-18

1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
13 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.
14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
16 Rejoice evermore.
17 Pray without ceasing.
18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
19 Quench not the Spirit.
20 Despise not prophesyings.
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.
23 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.
24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
25 Brethren, pray for us.
26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.
27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.
28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. (The first epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.)

Grace to you and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
POINT(S):
(1) THE DAY OF THE LORD.
(2) EXHORTATIONS FOR THE BRETHREN IN CHRIST.
(3) BLESSING AND ADMONITION FOR THE BRETHREN IN CHRIST.

(1)THE DAY OF THE LORD.
▪️Verse(s): 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
➖ THE DAY OF THE LORD COMES AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT.
➖ SOBER AND EQUIPPED CHILDREN OF LIGHT IN THE LORD.
➖ COMFORT AND EDIFICATION FOR THE BRETHREN APPOINTED TO SALVATION THROUGH CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.
❕➖❕
▪️➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖▪️
➖THE DAY OF THE LORD COMES AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT.
Verse(s): 1 Thessalonians 5:1-3, Matthew 24:36,44
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Concerning the times, the season, the particular day, the particular hour, the particular moment, no need for any of that because it should already be known to you that the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night.
Only the Father knows(Matt 24:36), so therefore we must be ready by the grace of God, for we do not know when He comes(Matt 24:44).
When they say, “PEACE AND SAFETY!”, then sudden destruction comes as labour pains upon a pregnant woman and they shall not escape.
❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖SOBER AND EQUIPPED CHILDREN OF LIGHT IN THE LORD.
Verse(s): 1 Thessalonians 5:4-7, 1 John 1:5-7, Ephesians 5:8-14, Matthew 6:24, 1 Peter 5:7, 1 John 2:15-17, 1 Peter 5:8, James 4:7
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
God is light and in Him is no darkness at all, if we say that have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth, but if we walk in light we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin(1 John 1:5-7).
We were once darkness but we are light in the Lord, so let us walk as children of light finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. and have no fellowship with works of darkness(Ephesians 5:8-14).

There let us not sleep, let us be sober, not distracted by worries(Matt 6:24), casting all our cares to Him(1 Pet 5:7), not lead astray by the things and pleasures of this world(1 John 2:15-17). Be instead seriously watchful and prayerful(1 Peter 4:7), be sober and vigilant for your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion looking for whom he may devour(1 Pet 5:cool.
Therefore, submit to God, resist the devil in the name of Jesus and He will flee from you(James 4:7).

❕❕❕❕❕❕❕
➖COMFORT AND EDIFICATION FOR THE BRETHREN APPOINTED TO SALVATION THROUGH CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.
Verse(s):1 Thessalonians 5:8-11, James 2:17, John 15:6, 1 John 4:20-21, Romans 8:24
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Now let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope for Salvation.
Faith without works is dead(James 2:17), your confession alone does not save your soul. It is your love and faith in God, and love for your fellow mankind consciously and unconditionally that saves you.
20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

For we were saved in this hope for Salvation, hope that is seen is not hope, for why does one still hope for what he sees? but if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with PERSEVERANCE.
For God has not appointed us for wrath but to obtain Salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. Who died for us that whether those who are dead or those alive that we will be together with Him by God’s grace.
Therefore comfort each other and edify one another with these words.

READ PSALM 97
1 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.
3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7 Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
8 Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9 For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
