God Rules In The Affairs Of Men

Dan. 4:17, 33-37

A fool says in his heart that there is no God (Ps. 14:1). The case of Nebuchadnezar typified that God rules in the affairs of men (v. 17). He became abazed and was given a beast’s heart. He lost his heart, mind or reasoning powers because he needed to know that the Lord is all-powerful and can place who He wants on the throne. King Nebuchadnezar experienced humiliation because he failed to recognise God as the source of his success. As a believer, you must not allow yourself to be degraded before you recognise God as the source of your success. Look into your life, place it on a scale and weigh if what you are going through is as a result of your inability to recognise God as the one that makes you to succeed.

Point of Emphasis: The living should know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men (v. 17)

Prayer Point: God, help me to always see you as the power behind my success.

When Civil Disobedience Is Allowed

Dan. 3:1-30

Christians are to take a stand when the laws interfere with rights of consciences; when they command the worship of idols, or any moral wrong, then it is their duty to refuse submission. It is implied that the state has a God-given power albeit capable of abuse over its subjects, hence if a ruler forbids what God requires or requires what God forbids, Christians cannot submit, and some form of civil disobedience becomes inescapable (Acts 4:18-31; 5:17-29)



Point of Emphasis: Be subject with care.

Prayer Point: Lord, help me to be able to know when the Government is trying to draw me away from you.

Do All Things Possible To Win Some

1 Cor. 9:13-23

When believers are living in the same community with unbelievers, the focus or concern of such believers should not be on the magnificent buildings, fleet of cars, wealth and opulence of such unbelievers. The concern must really be how do we minister Christ to them. Therefore, all means of interaction and socialising with them to achieve this purpose must be sought. Like Paul, there may be times when we will identify with them in their challenges, always pray with them. Attend their ceremonies when invited, giving helping hand when needed, etc. But all in all, the purpose is to win them to Christ, and you will succeed in this task in Jesus’ name.



Point of Emphasis: Become all things to all people to win some to Christ.

Prayer Point: Lord, give me wisdom to know what to do per time to bring sinners to Christ.



BACKGROUND

Christians are not island; they are not living in convent or in a separate community that comprise of only Christians. In the house they are living, their neighbourhood, schools, place of work, market place, etc, they meet and interact with unbelievers. What should be Christians’ relationship with the unbelievers in various communities and location? This is the fulcrum of this week’s lesson.



NOTES ON THE TEXT

PART 1: SEE THEM AS YOUR NEIGHBOUR (LK. 10:25-37)

The habit of some Christians is to hate unbelievers. They don’t want to do anything with them and for them. The reason might be because they have witnessed to those unbelievers and they refused to repent. They too have forgotten that it was not only a single gospel message that brought them to Christ, that some people laboured over them before they were saved.

First and foremost, Christians should see unbelievers not as their enemies, but their neighbours. They are God’s creatures, created in the image of God. Those who now become Christians were once like them (sinners), but who have now received the grace of salvation. Just like the lawyer in the passage asked “who is your neighbour”? A neighbour is somebody who lives next door or close to somebody else. Generally, a neighbour is a fellow human. The express command of God is to love your neighbour as you love yourself (Lev. 19:18; Matt. 19:19; Mk. 12:3).

Therefore, Christians should love unbelievers, see them as their neighbours, but hate the sins in their lives and never allow them to draw them back into sin. They must remember that it is because of those unbelievers that God has not taken them away to heaven after their salvation. They must be able to draw the line of demarcation in their relationship with unbelievers based on the instructions from the word of God.

Christians, like the Samaritan in the passage, must create a good atmosphere between them and their neighbours, so as to be able to witness Christ to them when the time comes. Assuming later on the man attacked by the robbers after recovery got wind of those who abandoned him and the man who assisted him, and they all came to witness Christ to him, who do you think he would listen to? Obviously he would listen to the man who assisted him without knowing him from anywhere. Christians should go and do likewise.



PART 2: WIN THEM TO CHRIST BY YOUR HONOURABLE CONDUCT (1 PET. 2:9-12)

As a chosen generation and God’s peculiar people who have obtained mercy and have been translated from the power of darkness, sin, Satan and flesh unto the light of Christ, we have a mandate from heaven, which is to show forth and proclaim the praises of Jesus and the gospel that saved us to unbelievers (v. 9)

This proclamation can be done through (i) proper ascription of praise to God in public, family, and social worship, (ii) endeavouring to make known His excellence to all those who are ignorant of Him; and (iii) living such a life that shall constantly proclaim His praise. The consistent life of a devoted Christian is a constant setting forth of the praise of God, showing to all that the God who has made him such is worthy to be loved.

Christians should know that the most effective ways to win unbelievers with whom we are living together is through our conducts. These conducts must be based on the Bible and on the awareness that believers are strangers, sojouners and pilgrims in this world (verse 11). This world is not their own, they are just passing through it. Therefore, they must abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul.

Believers should have honourable conducts among the Gentiles (v. 12). Christians must know that two sets of people are watching them – the heavenly beings and unbelievers. Your conduct speaks volume of who you really are. If you call yourself a Christian, and your unbelieving neigbours see and know about your numerous girlfriends or boyfriends, they know you to be a fighter in the neighbourhood, nobody can use any of your property without you cursing them, etc. these are not honourable conducts that can win unbelievers to Christ. Check your life and your relationship with unbelievers, can it bring others to Christ or send them away from Christ?



PART 3: BE WISE (MATT. 10:16-26)

One of the things Christians should bear in mind is that the world does not love them. This sour relationship between believers and the world is reflected in Jesus’ prayer in John 17 for these reasons, it doesn’t matter the love showered on the people of the world, they will still turn around to be unappreciative and at times try to harm the believers.

The Bible says “… for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light” (Lk. 16:. At times, a Christian may be trying to be good to unbelievers with the aim of bringing them to Christ, the unbelievers in their own worldly wisdom, may be having ulterior motives of scheming how to bring such Christian into disrepute and make him fall back into sin. For such believer, the advice of Jesus must be seriously adhered to. You have been sent as sheep in the midst of wolves, therefore, be wise as serpents and harmless a doves (v. 16). Serpents have always been an emblem of wisdom and cunningness (Gen. 3:1). Probably Jesus directed His followers here to imitate the serpent in its caution in avoiding danger. No animal equals them in the rapidity and skill which they evince in escaping danger. So Christians need caution and wisdom in the midst of a world that will seek their lives. He directs them also to be harmless, not to provoke danger, not to do injury, etc. Doves are and always have been a striking emblem of innocence. In essence, believers, while doing all things possible to win unbelievers to Christ, must be wise and cautious so that their acts are not misinterpreted for wrong motive by the unbelievers.





CONCLUSION

Christians should be light and salt to the world. They must show forth the light they have received through salvation to the unbelievers. They must love unbelievers but hate their sin. They must do all things possible, through their honourable conducts and cautious relationship to win unbelievers to Christ.





QUESTIONS

You Are The Epistle Of Christ

2 Cor. 3:1-7

As apostle Paul has declared, believers are the epistle of Christ known and read by all men (v. 2). The unbelievers that we are living with may not go to church or read the Bible, but they hear the gospel message through means such as radio, television, tracts, house-to-house evangelism, etc, and as such know little of what God is expecting from His children. Though they cannot do those things, yet they believe that anyone who calls himself a child of God must do them. Hence, once they see a supposedly child of God doing contrary to those standards, they quickly interject “And you call yourself a Christian”. This means unbelievers are watching you, so don’t drag the name of Christ in the mud in your community.

Point of Emphasis: You are being watched and read by all, so align with Christ.

Prayer Point: Help me Lord not to bring dishonour to the name of Jesus through my actions, reactions and inactions.

Follow Peace With All Men

Heb. 12:12-17

In our relationship with others, Christians must bear this fundamental truth in mind that one of the qualifications to see God at the end of our life journey is the ability and grace to follow peace with all men. This means believers are to have peaceful relations as much as possible with their unbelieving neighbours and associates. They should not be the cause of dissension. Unbelievers have no hope of eternal life with God, hence they do not have anything to lose if they are found fighting with people, keeping malice, harbouring hatred toward another person, etc. But believers who have the hope of heaven are the ones that will do everything possible not to allow others to rob them of eternal life.



Point of Emphasis: As much as you can, live peaceably with all men.

Prayer Point: Lord, give me grace not to have any problem with anybody in life.

charix:
Probably lack of phone security. In these days where privacy is a major concern there's a huge possibility the phone manufacturers sell your data to other companies for random reasons. It makes sense. Facebook sells every user information to monitoring agencies hence can acquire funds needed to expand and maintain their social network.
I don't trust Chinese brands because they're well known for taking ethical shortcuts in favour of profit.

Have u ever used xiaomi before?.. If not just don't say anything about it at all... And if u have used,d phone security is wack?

Repay No One Evil For Evil

Rom. 12:14-21

As believers live in the same community with unbelievers, it is not impossible to see some of them (unbelievers) who are heady, stubborn, always looking for trouble. At times, they will do some things intentionally to make the believer to get angry and start fighting with them. At such moments, believers should be sensitive to know that the devil is at work and should do everything possible not to bring themselves low by exchanging unpleasant word with the unbelievers. Do not pay them back in their own coin. If they do any evil against you, do not retaliate, leave vengeance to God to avenge you. If they are cursing you, choose to bless them in return. With these God will be fighting for you and you are at the same time ministering Christ to them.



Point of Emphasis: Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Prayer Point: Help me Lord not to avenge myself in any case but to live everything for You.
