Focus on the Word of God and not the word of any man, Let Jesus be your role model and not any Pastor. You are the House that God is building. A new breed without greed, a radical opposition to corruption. The Bible says you are the salt of the Earth, one of the things salt does is to prevent corruption, when a salt is put in a soup or food, it does not stand alone, it mixes with other ingredients, what am i trying to say? You are to prevent corruption not only within the church but also outside the church, we need to get out of the building called church, we are the church, the living stone fitted together into the House of God. it is not only RCCG there are so many monument called church taking people away from the kingdom of God. Let us study the Bible and see Jesus as our Role Model. From Genesis to Revelation it is all about Jesus. |

The reason why some of the things you have been reading sounds different is because we have all been feeding on a different gospel. This is not a new doctrine, this is Christ! Our assignment is to point to Christ, to showcase Jesus, to ascribe him all the glory! No man died for us, he did! No man paid our price, he did. He alone is worthy of our adoration and worship! Anyone who competes with the space is owns is setting himself against God! I desire to spend the rest of my life, living for him! The end of my life was cast, it was death, sure death. He came and rescued me, not to live my life and ambitions, but to also lay down my life to take on his own! Everyday, this is a privilege I enjoy. I studied John 7-12 today... here are thoughts from it. Bible Facts You Need to Know! John 7-12 > Jesus Brothers did not believe him. John 7:5 This implies you also may not get home base support for your faith. It also clarifies that Mary was not a virgin for long. > The acid test of who sent you, is who do you really glorify? Matt 7:16-18. Jesus gloried God! He did not preach his doctrine, he preached God! The person you preach is the one who sent you, and the one whose authority you speak with! Think about it, if Jesus sent me, then my work must be to Preach Christ, not myself. > No one can lay hands on us, until our hour comes! John 7:30. Our times are in his hands! > Those who will represent Christ must depend on God for wisdom, the world and organized religion would find anything, just anything to discredit you. John 8:6 > Total dependence on Christ is not mumu, we learnt it from Christ. John 8:28-30 > There is a difference between claiming to believe in Jesus and actually believing in Jesus. The acid test is, do you live out what he tells you to do? John 8:31-32 > It will be difficult for Jesus’ words to penetrate the thick skulls of those who have unknowingly accepted the fatherhood of satan. John 8:38. It’s actually possible not to know who your true father is until we X-ray your conduct. > How do you know if God is your father? Love for Jesus! How do you know you have love for Jesus? You are obeying his commandments! Is God your father? John 8:42 > He who is of God, hears God’s word, if you can’t stand it, you are not of God! What your listen to, defines which side you are on. John 8:47. > Jesus is the light of the world, as long as he is in the world. Those who are really blind, are those who can’t see the light! John 9:5. > Those who couldn’t see will be given sight, those who are stuck up and think they can see, would be made blind! The poor in spirit will own the Kingdom of Heaven. John 9. > Organized religion doesn’t care if you can’t see, it cares that it was done within the ambits of the letter. The letter truly kills. John 9:34.

Interviewer: Does God have time like that? Christian: Yes He does. He’s a loving father. He speaks to us, more than we care to even listen. We need to read the Bible to decode His language. Interviewer: So God really wants to have a relationship with human beings, he wants to commune with them like everyday? Christian: Yes, exactly. That’s the main difference between the law and grace. With the law, you don’t need to talk to God, just look at what he wrote as commandments and tick them off. But with grace, you allow Him to lead you. Interviewer: Wow, so you are free from Law based on grace? Christian: Yes! But it doesn’t mean you won’t be law abiding though, as most of the law that is not cultural is actually common sense. So you’ll find yourself still living based on God’s moral standards of you allow Him to live out through you. Interviewer: How do you mean the law that is not cultural is common sense? Christian: Thou shall not murder for example. If we don’t have that commandment, we’ll self destruct. The moral codes actually make our lives on earth more sustainable. God however is not impressed by your good works, He wants you to have a relationship with Him so that Christ can live out his life and do the works though you. Interviewer: Profound! So back to the matter, God wants you to communicate with him regularly and get his direction on all His goods that are in your care? Christian: Absolutely! They are all His, I am only a steward of all things. Interviewer: Is there anything wrong though with obeying the Law rather than living by Grace? Christian: Yes, everything is wrong with it. By obeying the Law you never mature beyond a child – It’s children that need dos and don’ts. With the law your relationship with God will not develop, you’ll not need to ask God for anything. Then you can’t obey the law 100% all the time, and God says if you fail in one, you have failed in all. So the law puts you in more condemnation. The law couldn’t save us, that’s why Christ came! Interviewer: Wow, I now understand it! Christian: It’s really simple if your heart is right and you are not looking at God based on what you can get, but based on who he is and what he wants. Interviewer: So if all you own is God’s All, how do you then pay tithes and offering? Christian: It doesn’t make sense does it? If I already surrendered 100% how can I give him 10% of what he already owns? Tithe is like circumcision and Sabbath, all existed before the Law, but were drafted into the law. God wants 100% from the seed of Christ. If our lives are truly sold out to God, we will get his direction for what to give and where to give. Interviewer: Why do pastors then demand for 10% Christian: Well, some of them think that God has provided that as the means of funding church work. I really can’t blame them much, I didn’t understand it well before as well. Interviewer: How practical is 100% though? How does that work really? Christian: It’s simple. If I belong to God, and the money belongs to God, using the money to buy food that I’ll eat based on God’s leading still means the money is still with God! He can instruct me to give someone, he can lead me to give it to church. It has to be His leading as it’s His resources. Interviewer: Wow! It sounds like the Goat of the King that ate the Yam of the King. Christian: Yes, so far it’s the King that gave the goat the Yam. Whenever we step into personal agenda, we leave God’s ownership. It has to be centered around God. Interviewer: What then should believers give to Church? Christian: Whatever they have purposed in their heart, with God’s leading to give. I truly feel that if people are led by God, many churches would starve of funds. The gospel of Jesus Christ is not really being funded, just empires. Interviewer: If I give to Church, will it multiply? I hear I can sow my money and reap a bumper harvest. Christian: Many rich people have multiplied their money by doing business. I know no scripture to support that type of nonsense. From my understanding of Jesus’ teaching, the seed is the word of God, which became the son of God and birthed the sons of the kingdom. Interviewer: Wow… what can I do to be saved? Christian: Repent! Interviewer: You mean say a sinners prayer? Christian: No! saying a sinners prayer doesn’t mean you are saved, there is what you need to do first… to be continued. Culled from http://www.deoluakinyemi.com/simple-spiritual-logic-101/ |

Interviewer: What does it mean when Jesus said you must lose your life to find it? Christian: He meant you need to lose this life you have completely and take up His own life Interviewer: Wow, is that possible? Christian: Yes, that’s how we should live. It requires faith. Interviewer: So you give up your life for the life of Christ by faith? Christian: Yes, this is how to be saved. Interviewer: Did you surrender your life to Christ? Christian: Yes! Interviewer: All of your life or some of your life? Christian: All of my life! Of course. Interviewer: So Christ owns you? Is that what you mean when you call him Lord? Christian: Yes, exactly. Interviewer: Wow, do you trust him that much? Christian: Absolutely! Interviewer: You mean Jesus owns you? All of you? Christian: All of me, every past, present, future, resources, all! Interviewer: What of your Children, do they belong to you? Christian: No, they belong to God, I am a steward. Interviewer: This is scary. What about your wife? Christian: She belongs to God, she is God sent to help me accomplish what God wants us to achieve. Interviewer: What of your Money, does that belong to God too? Christian: Yes, that too. All of it, I’m only a steward. Interviewer: What does all these mean practically? Christian: It means I must communicate with God, and get his direction on training my children, on leading my wife, and on spending every penny. Interviewer: For real? Christian: Yes for real. to be continued.... |

Husband sets wife up as sister, to survive. He’s happy for others to sleep with his wife and make him comfortable! Wife agrees to the plot like mumu. Is Abraham a model Husband? Is Sarah a model wife?Wife provides husband with her maid to literally go into! Husband agrees like mumu and impregnates the housegirl. Will you like to be like these? Matured 40 year old man can’t even get a wife for himself, father orders for a wife for him, and he marries her at first sight! Do you want your marriage to be like Isaac’s? Husband works hard for father inlaw to exchange his 7 years salary for a wife, gets swindled with another wife, and works for another 7 years to get the wife of his dreams! Would you want to copy Jacob and His Wives? Would you want to be Leah unloved first wife? Or Rachel, unfruitful love of his life. Wife tells husband! Curse God and die! Husband refuses, but stays in the marriage and eventually receives God’s compensation through the same wife. Who wants a marriage modeled after Job and His wife? A broke woman plays herself into the hand of an established man. Targets when he’s sleeping and positions close to him to get him to propose. Or would you want your husband to inherit you as part of a property transaction? Would you want to model Ruth and Boaz? Or do you prefer to marry a man who you can only see when he asks you to come? Or get selected to marry your husband from a beauty contest where he gets to try you all out well before chosing? Will you like a marriage like Queen Esther and King Ahasuerus? Show me a marriage in scripture the 21st century believer wants to model after. What we look for on the surface is not what any of them were made of. You need to be looking beyond the surface! What made these marriages tic was the stories they found themselves in! God’s story! Sarah, Rebecca, Leah and Ruth, will find themselves in the lineage of Christ! Job’s wife will find herself Job’s partner in restoration. No marriage is worth following except that they lead to Christ! Jesus is the gate to the sheepfold, all who attempt to go to the people without Him are thieves! Enter through the sheepfold, see Jesus in the unions, see the unions as a platform for Christ’s expression! The purpose of Marriage is to raise disciples – Check your Bible to confirm! (God, not you, made marriage. His Spirit inhabits even the smallest details of marriage. And what does he want from marriage? Children of God, that’s what. So guard the spirit of marriage within you. Don’t cheat on your spouse. Mal 2:15 MSG). The will of God is not a wife, it’s allowing Jesus to do the work of reconciliation through you. May our homes be a platform for God’s will to be done in the earth! As I celebrate 12 years with my wife, partner, lover and friend today may Christ in us grow in stature, wisdom and favor with God and man! Follow us, only as we follow Christ!
